Chapter 090. Damn, I mispronounced the name

The city of Juneau sits on a peninsula across the sea from Douglas Island and Ardmuralti Islands. If you look at the satellite map, you will see that the area seems to have been cut with a scythe, and the gaps have been filled with seawater, dividing the islands one by one. But the gap is not wide, and even the river is only larger, but even so, it has formed a natural sphere of influence.

The Kuta River, which originates from Lake Attoring, formed by the snowmelt around the Rocky Mountains, spills out of the lake that meanders downstream along the mountain, and eventually infects the sea with the support of snowmelt runoff, forming an estuary on the Pacific coast, where the sea meets fresh water.

It sits on the peninsula where the city of Juno and the county of Saine are located, and it also directly divides the otherwise intact terrain in two. To the north are the counties of Saine and the cities of Juneau, once the most famous gold mining places in the United States, and the sand gold produced is famous all over the world. Although the south is relatively deserted, it was once a famous sanatorium and tourist attraction in the United States, attracting tourists from all over the world, and the most famous are Nachang Lake Village, Indian Lake and other places.

But now the Kuta River is not only a river in the region, but in a sense, it has become a boundary between the two forces. The North Shore remains the territory of the United States Confederacy, with an air base and the Anchorage Line to deter enemies who dare to continue to occupy the land. But the south shore had all fallen, and all but Douglas Island, which was very close to the city of Juneau, had been occupied by the Canadians and Soviets.

The originally abandoned county of Saine has also become a sea of fire, and after burning out, it is estimated that it is now in ruins. On the entire peninsula, only the city of Juno is still there, but look at the air base that is almost useless. If you look at the group of base garrisons who are waiting to die, you already know that almost all of them have never had confidence in the future of Alaska.

Even Liszt, to be honest, was a little bleak about the prospect of that future. Sitting in the passenger seat of a Humvee armed SUV, a few meters in front of Liszt was the gently flowing Kuta River. The banks of the river to the north were washed with a roar. The cigarette was in his mouth, but it was not lit, and Liszt's eyes looked at the other side of the river more than a hundred meters away in front of him, but a mocking smile appeared on his face: "Do you want to provoke a war?" ”

Liszt muttered slowly, but there was no fear in his eyes. Just on the other side of the river, there was also a light field assault vehicle parked there, and the spray of the Maple Leaf Flag was on the side of the car, which was not disguised at all. And a burly Canadian was also standing on the riverbank, his sunglasses covering half of his face. A FAL assault rifle was in his hand. Although no shots were fired, it was full of deterrence.

"It looks really arrogant."

Gently lit the cigarette in his mouth with a lighter, Liszt gently inhaled the mellow gas, and the feeling of running down his throat filled his heart and made him feel comfortable. Two smoke dragons erupted from his nose, and Liszt's face gradually blurred in the mist, but his voice was still clear: "But those guys on the other side, do they really dare to shoot?" ”

"Shoot?" Garcia, who was in the driver's seat, smiled disdainfully. Leaning on the steering wheel with one hand, he also looked at the light field assault vehicle on the other side of the river. The fat tongue couldn't help licking his upper lip, but his tone was still tinged with a hint of mockery and disdain: "This group of Canadians is not Soviet, and even if they are Soviets, they will not choose a large-scale military conflict with the United States Federation at this point in time." ”

"But their arrogant appearance really makes me unhappy."

Liszt took a deep puff of the cigarette, which had only burned less than a fifth, but he spat it out straight out. Twisting his neck, he reached out and closed the open car door. Snorted coldly: "This kind of appearance where I'm arrogant but I can't kill him is really the same as a dog." ”

Just behind the light field assault vehicle on the other side of the river, in the lush forest, there were undisguised Canadian soldiers with rifles and green camouflage uniforms. But still no one dared to fire the first shot, because Liszt was standing here. It represents the U.S. Confederation. If Liszt dies here, I am afraid that the consequence will be a brazen attack by the American Federation, which Canada cannot afford.

The U.S. Federation, which was deeply involved in the Mexican battlefield, has gradually recovered, and with the increasing improvement of the law and order war, a large number of elite troops have also been transferred from the front line of the war to the north, and the original Canadian and American border is deployed near the national border. Even the area where the Great Lakes are located has been deployed with three river rapid reaction forces, and as long as there is any abnormal situation, the wide Great Lakes on the Canada-US border will be the bridgehead for the invasion of the powerful US army, navy, and air force.

"The depletion of oil resources allowed the Soviet Union, which already had few oil reserves, to begin to shrink its line of power, and this group of Canadians may have been a good idea, but they never knew that the real great powers were at war, and it would not be as grinding as it is now."

Squinting at the rolling hills behind him, Liszt's gaze turned to the Canadians on the other side of the river. He didn't have much affection for this group of people who aspired to be the new order, but felt a kind of ridiculous. Although the United States and the Soviet Union have met each other many times, large-scale military clashes, and small-scale border clashes and proxy wars have occurred many times, both sides have shown considerable restraint.

And when the war between the two is no longer restrained, it is the real end of the world. Even if people don't understand the consequences of the inadequacy of both sides, Liszt understands it incomparably. Because on October 23, 2077, in just three hours of war, it has already destroyed the hegemony of the earth that took tens of thousands of years for mankind to rise. It was just three hours that turned the entire earth upside down.

"Major Liszt, has it really been decided?"

The magic stick behind him slowly spoke, and he held the M16 assault rifle in his arms to look at the Canadians on the other side of the Kuta River, but he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the rolling hills behind him. The elite of the United States Federal United, who were also heavily armed, were standing there with weapons, and the ten **** trucks were already parked on the back of the hill. Two mini excavators have also disembarked from their trucks and are being directed by professional engineers to begin to climb to the front of the hill.

The construction of the guard post had already begun, and the engineers had just quickly drawn the most reasonable building layout according to the surrounding terrain. On the banks of the Kuta River, in the area where this hill is located, the site of the guard post was determined by Liszt. If this post is built, then there will already be a key point for the Anchorage Line, and it will also have a monitoring effect on the surrounding island dynamics.

"Right here, at least for half a year, that group of Canadians will not dare to attack easily."

Squinting slightly, Liszt patted Garcia on the shoulder. And they immediately drove forward with a clear mind, and the powerful Humvee armed off-road vehicle immediately drove forward through the soft dirt, and quickly came to the back of the hill. And just as he was turning, Liszt turned his head to look at the Canadians on the other side of the river, who were also beginning to retreat, and said with a slight mockery: "They were frightened by the previous battle. ”

In the previous battle, in order to compete for alien technology, the United States Federation has dispatched a large-scale helicopter swarm, more than 50 Black Hawk helicopter gunships, machine guns, rockets and air-to-air missiles combined, the appearance of a big deal has made the Canadians retreat. And Saine County is located in the southern part of Alaska, even if the Soviets want to seize it, there is not much way to do, even if it is verbally supporting the Canadians, but in order to ensure their own rights and interests, the Canadians also choose to retreat and forbear.

But this is even more a revelation of the cowardice of Canadians and the short-sightedness of high-level politicians in the United States. If these islands south of Saine County are not abandoned, I am afraid that the Canadians will not even be able to go out of Prince Rupert in the Pacific Ocean. Not to mention the endless Soviet-style weapons of the Mexican guerrillas, without the covert support of the Soviet Union and Canada, not even a single nail could be transported to Mexico.

"Tell everyone to set up their own temporary defensive positions, Cassius, and you will be responsible for arranging the deployment of fire."

But Liszt did not dare to take it lightly, and no one knew if the group of Canadians would take their heads and annihilate all their vigilant troops here. Slowly turning his head to look at the top of the surrounding hills that were more than ten meters high, Liszt said to Cassius and the Divine Stick behind him: "There is also the Divine Stick, go and take charge of the construction of the engineering troops, and let them be responsible for the construction of the defensive positions of all the soldiers first." ”

"Understood." The two nodded immediately, and at this critical moment, they didn't have the atmosphere of laughter and slapstick half a minute ago. Simply getting out of the car, the two of them immediately separated to gather the soldiers and engineers, and after a short period of task arrangement, the roar of mechanical digging and the small sound of sapper shovels resounded in the whole hill.

With the exception of the vigilant team, everyone began to level the ground in the hills. Especially with the help of those two military small excavators, primitive trenches have quickly appeared at the point of this hill and waist. Moreover, the excavated soil has been packed into sandbags and quickly piled up low walls, which ensures the integrity of the defense facilities. Although the combination of trenches and sandbags is outdated, the standard way of working with permanent positions still plays an important role.
