The Mississippi River defense line was broken through in one day, which not only frightened the North Americans, but also the other three, you must know that the North American side is a whole army opposite St. Louis, and since the three cents broke up, they have been building various forts on the east bank of the Mississippi River, and even the newspapers boasted that it was comparable to Verdun, although the fortress ended tragically, but it was enough to show that the North American side was really confident.

It was broken through in one day, which is also too unbelievable.

In fact, Emperor Yang of Beijing was also very dissatisfied with this result.

"How can this work, it's too fast, what are you playing when you hit Chicago in a month? Sue Liu Ziming, don't keep thinking about going to Chicago to set fires, fight slowly, let the people of North America see hope, don't make people desperate as soon as they make a move, as for setting fire to Chicago, you can wait until the bombers have passed before playing. Emperor Yang said.

"But further north, all the way to Chicago, it's a flat river, and there's nowhere to stop him." Li Yuncong said with a headache.

"Why not, Springfield, Sangamon River, Decatur line is completely fine, it is the capital of Illinois, and it is fully worthy of a large-scale battle." Emperor Yang said, pointing to the map.

"Your Majesty, you let him block a small ditch a hundred and ten meters wide, this is too difficult for him, right?" Li Yuncong's eyes almost popped out.

"Why not, isn't the Marne also a small ditch? Germany and France fought for several years, to turn the Sangamont into the Marne River for the French, to make it a place of hope for the people of North America, and then to leave a battle in history that will be remembered for generations to come. Emperor Yang said undoubtedly.

Li Yuncong had no choice but to go back and send a telegram to the Jinzhou Military Region, informing Liu Ziming of this arduous task.

After receiving the telegram forwarded to him by the Jinzhou Military Region Command, Liu Ziming was stupid, how could he fight?

"Find a few people tonight and put the railway bridge on the zha medicine and blow it up." He struggled for a long time and said to the adjutant beside him that the North American army had not had time to blow up this vital bridge because it was defeated too quickly. Now the soldiers of the 13th Army are constantly crossing the bridge.

"Huh?!" The adjutant didn't understand for a moment, and stood there looking at him stupidly.

"Why don't you go soon? If you don't blow up the bridge, how can the North American Army have time to set up a defensive line in Springfield, and also, make it secretive, make people think that it was a North American spy who did it, and don't forget to hunt down the spy after the bombing. Liu Ziming shouted angrily.

If he didn't do this, the North American side really didn't have time to establish a new defense line in Springfield, after all, it took enough time for them to move troops from everywhere, but the explosion of the St. Louis railway bridge that night gave them enough time, although the North American spies hunted by the Chinese with great fanfare baffled them. But such a good opportunity must not be missed, and besides, the two countries have only been separated for only a year, and there must be many people in St. Louis who still have their hearts set on the United States, and it is entirely possible for these righteous people to do such a thing for the sake of freedom and democracy.

After thanking the righteous forces of St. Louis in his heart, the chief of staff of the North American Army immediately began to mobilize all the troops that could be mobilized from the surrounding area, and hurried to Springfield to set up defenses, because the number of troops was insufficient, the Illinois government even ordered the National Guard to be called, and in the end more than 200,000 people were actually cobbled. Together with more than 30,000 people who had been defeated from St. Louis, they formed a European-style trench system based on the Sangamon River and the fortresses of Springfield, Cadit, and Champaign.

As for the Confederate and Spanish armies attacking on other fronts, they did not make much progress. On the Eastern Front, the Spaniards besieged Norfolk with two armies, but this naval fortress was not easy to deal with, although the defenders were not strong, but the perfect shore defense and North American warships at sea posed a great threat to the Spaniards. The initial attack was not only unsuccessful, but suffered heavy losses, and the Spanish commander, who had come to his senses, had to order to go on the defensive, and since it could not be attacked, he simply blocked the place. Prevent the North American Army from landing from Norfolk and then attacking their flanks.

The attack on Richmond was also not smooth, the North American Army had a whole corps to hold here, and the other two corps from Washington to the south attacked from the outside, although the Spaniards also had three corps here, but the two sides were evenly matched, and the battle was also deadlocked, and from the perspective of the battlefield, the situation of the Spaniards was not good, and if there were no new reinforcements, they would have to lose, in this case, the two German divisions originally stationed in Haiti had to go into battle.

Because of the possession of General Motors, a large construction machinery manufacturer, the Confederacy was fully armed with two armored divisions before the war, all using Tiger fighting vehicles, and now these two armored divisions have achieved brilliant results in the middle, with these two steel torrents as the blade, the two Confederate armies swept almost the entire state of Kentucky, and in just a few days successively conquered Louisville and Lexington, of which the Second Army even approached Cincinnati.

But unfortunately, the Ohio River, which is wider than the upper reaches of the Mississippi River, has become an insurmountable obstacle for them, and this large river originating in the Appalachian Mountains stretches across the entire northern border of Kentucky, and the river is nearly 500 meters wide, as long as the North Americans hold Cincinnati, Louisville, and Evansville, the Confederate army cannot expect to pass unless it detours to St. Louis, which is building bridges, but even then they have to cross a Wabash River, This north-south river protects the flanks of Indianapolis.

Of course, for the coalition forces, these are not problems, the key problem is that they are still insufficient, so far a total of four army groups have been invested, and the North American side has six army groups, and is also preparing to form four army groups, such a force is definitely not good for the attack, must be increased troops, but at this time there is a problem with the reinforcements they are scheduled to have.

"Your Excellency President, you are still going to wait and see how long it will take, and if you do this again, you will be a little sorry for the emperor's friendship." In the presidential palace in Mexico City, Chen Yongcheng, an old friend of His Excellency the President and general manager of the Mexican branch of the People's Bank of China, said threateningly.

"Lao Chen, you have to give me some time, Mexico now is not like before, there used to be anti-Dias, recovering territory from the hands of the Americans these slogans are supported, no matter what I do, the people listen to me, but now it is not good, now there is no enemy outside, this person is not easy to manage, and he is afraid of me, and he wants democracy, and there are people who accuse me of betraying national interests, Ma's, I didn't see them ask for any power when I couldn't eat before, and now I have only eaten for a few years, and I have begun to make trouble with nothing." His Excellency the President said with a depressed face.

Mexicans know that their president is a duke referee, but they don't know that the general manager of the Mexican branch of the People's Bank of China is the emperor of the country.

"That's why I told you at the beginning that building those universities is to make trouble for yourself, and the people can't let them know too much, and the more you read, the more reactionary they become, you have to learn to control their thoughts, you had a good time when you made Dias, how can you enjoy more happiness but won't play." Chen Yongcheng looked at His Excellency the President's bloated body with a little disdain, and he really couldn't connect the fat pig in front of him with the leader who led the Mexican people with high spirits back then.

"What's the use of talking about this now, the key is to deal with the present?" Mr. Santos said he sparked a wave of massive protests in the country as soon as the Mexican People's Council, the Mexican Congress, forcibly passed the proposal to declare war on North America. It's not that the Mexican people have any special feelings for the people of North America, but that the political forces that oppose Santos have never found an excuse to attack him, and this time it just gives them enough reasons.

After all, the life of the Mexican people in recent years has not been very good, even compared to the time of Díaz, the strength is limited, although Mexico has become an important crude oil exporter, but the real money has been fished out by Gulf Oil and Santos and his cronies, even if it falls into the hands of the government, after layers of peeling, it can be used on the people There is still a drop in the bucket.

And Mexico's national industry, which is not strong in the first place, originally hoped that after getting rid of the shadow of the Americans, it could get real development, but the front door rejected the wolf and the back door welcomed the tiger, the Americans were driven away, but the Chinese flocked in. The Chinese businessmen colluded with the compradors of the Santos system to completely destroy Mexico's original industry with cheap Chinese industrial products, and then used tariffs and a series of overt and implicit rules to make Mexican industry never emerge, and completely turned the country into a cheap supplier of raw materials and a dumping ground for goods. As for the money earned, it all fell into the hands of Chinese businessmen and compradors, and the appearance was as ugly as that of the Americans and Diaz.

The Mexican capitalists who were beaten down have long been unbearable, and Santos has opened several universities by himself in order to win the hearts of the people, but he has not paid attention to controlling his thoughts, because the Mexican People's Party is a bearded party, but many students have made it true, and the result is that those capitalists have become gunmen, and the situation is so strange that even Emperor Yang was amazed. These people are nothing to care about, the point is that even the Mexican Army has a problem at the moment, Santos originally ordered to shoot at the protest team, but the soldiers were unwilling to do it, which made his heart tremble.

"Since the army is unwilling to do it, then don't use them, transfer them out of Mexico City, move them farther away, and then carry out an internal purge, and send all the dangerous elements to China to study under an excuse, just say that they are going for further study, and when the time comes, load a ship, find a warship on the way and sink a hundred, and then you will wash it again and teach them to be loyal to you alone.

As for Mexico City, the security team will be transferred directly from the Canal Company, and they will be responsible for helping you suppress it, and whoever dares to oppose you will be directly arrested and hanged, one will be hanged and one will be hanged, and one hundred will be hanged and one hundred will be hanged. Chen Yongcheng said viciously. (To be continued......)
