“…… According to the analysis of military experts, the ACA's offensive is rather aimless, and from this point of view, there is indeed the possibility of a similar factional struggle...... It is precisely because of the lack of political predictability that the alliance is unprepared......"

-- Temporary radio edition of the Allied Times

"Is that something I can understand that as long as the ACA continues to play cards out of the way, then if the ACA wants to attack any coastal city on the planet in the future, they can do it?"

-- A viewer is enthusiastic about calling.

"But, I think the ACA may be targeting more than just Washington, or the members of the Allies, who most likely have bigger goals."

"I want to hear your judgment."

"First of all," Ling Yu sorted out his thoughts slightly, and then began to state, "Just like we considered before, now that the ACA has sent this landing force ashore, it is impossible to resupply without sea dominance, then it will be three to five days of combat strength at most, and these three to five days will not be able to cause fatal damage to any industrial base or other places in the east coast region of the alliance, but these troops will completely die here, and it is impossible to withdraw." ”

"While attacking the president and parliamentarians is a relatively solid reason, there is really no need for a large-scale troop movement, and a crack commando can have the same effect, and I really can't think of the point of burying such a team." Ling Yu shook his head, "Now it seems that most of the seven TFs have come here, this list can be described as quite gorgeous, without these paratroopers and landing troops, just relying on these seven TFs, plus the betrayed secret service, Washington would be in dire trouble." It is possible for the president, the cabinet or the parliamentarians to cause a large number of casualties. ”

"Not necessarily, the results of the current aerial reconnaissance, at least five armored divisions have been assembled in Baltimore, and there is the ability to fight head-on with the Alliance in the Washington area." Yang Chengze lifted his hand, which had only three fingers. Gently touched his chin.

"No air supremacy is just a target, although the surface-to-air missiles are still effective, but if the alliance really attacks at any cost, these fixed-point defense systems are simply targets." Ling Yu shook his head slightly, and then asked another question, "Moreover, five armored divisions, not to mention whether so many troops can be deployed around Washington, supplies will also be very tight." ”

"Definitely. Therefore, we made a bold judgment that many of the five armored divisions were false targets. Yang Chengze thought about it for a moment, "But how many are fake targets, it's uncertain at the moment." ”

"So," Yang Chengze paused and continued, "where do you think their goal is?" ”

"Icarus." Ling Yu did not hesitate and gave the answer directly. "I know that this answer is impossible, but although it is 0 in terms of physical feasibility. But from a logical point of view, this is the only reasonable explanation for such a big sacrifice. ”

"I have a report here, Icarus just sent me a message, they have arrested seven or eight agents who tried to sabotage Icarus' posture stabilization device." Yang Chengze smiled lightly, "It seems that we won this time." ”

"Posture steady...... Annoying. Did they all penetrate to such a high level? Ling Yu frowned and looked at Helis who was squatting in the corner of the room repairing the drone, "Sure enough, no system is safe. ”

The Attitude Stabilizer is a device that controls the Icarus Auxiliary Engine, and it controls all the tens of thousands of large and small attitude nozzles of Icarus. If these spies had completely controlled the posture and stabilized the device, then Icarus could be directly exposed to the solar storm, and the damage would be immeasurable.

"But you still have to be careful with Plan B," Ling Yu shook his head lightly and continued, "From the perspective of efficiency-to-cost ratio, relying on spies is still a gamble, which is not in line with the strategic principles of the ACA's top management, and there may be a backhand. ”

"I've stepped up the security at the Pittsburgh Ground Control Center, and Icarus has also imposed martial law, and we're doing our best to prevent it," Yang nodded.

"Pittsburgh? Didn't I remember just around the corner from Washington? Ling Yu frowned, "Is this how the landing force of the ACA is rushing here?" ”

"In the northwest of Washington, on the west side of the Appalachian Mountains," Yang Chengze replied in the affirmative, and then explained, "Heavy equipment is going to reach Pittsburgh, not to mention the issue of air supremacy, our judgment is that the ACA will first capture Washington, and then attack from both Baltimore and Washington, using the highway as the axis, attacking the two transportation towns of Hagerston and Winchester, and then encircling Pittsburgh." ”

"Well, I understand." Ling Yu recalled the map a little, this plan is feasible, the entire combat maneuver has not left Washington's anti-aircraft fire circle, large strategic bombers cannot be used, and attack aircraft and fighters will also suffer heavy losses if they want to intervene.

More importantly, time, unlike a hundred years ago when the United States bullied Iraq, the pilots here have to face the ACA armored divisions armed to the teeth, and in a symmetrical war of this scale, the air force can crush the opposing side, but it will take a long time, because ground interceptor weapons will neutralize most of the attacks.

Therefore, if there are no ground forces, the probability of success is not high if you want to block the attack of five wolf-like armored divisions, after all, there is no generation difference between the weapons of the ACA and the Alliance.

"So we also made preparations, the 4th Royal Rapid Reaction Division reinforced from Vancouver will land directly in Hagerston, and then build a defensive line, in addition, the 114th Armored Division stationed in Martinsburg will first move south to Winchester, and then attack Washington along the direction of Pittsburgh, it is the most combat-ready force in the region, and I have also mobilized the 82nd Rapid Reaction Division, which is rushing from Boston, to reach Pittsburgh first, and then attack Washington, these two divisions are in line with the air, In the end, the National Guard is massing towards Pittsburgh, and the 144th Motorized Infantry Division stationed in Cleveland is ordered to assemble and garrison Pittsburgh, and the ground control center has also strengthened counterintelligence measures, and there is no problem. ”

"The situation at Fort Meade...... What do you think? Ling Yu frowned and mentioned a question that he didn't really want to mention.

"Fifteen minutes ago, contact was cut off, and I already sent someone to reconnoitre." Yang Chengze shook his head gently. Obviously, this decision was not what he wanted to do either, "The location of Fort Meade was too important, and they themselves knew it, so there was not a single telegram requesting a retreat...... I'm afraid ......"

"Their sacrifice will not be in vain." Ling Yu nodded, Fort Meade's existence made Baltimore and Washington unable to become one. The ACA could not safely aim westward at Pittsburgh, and it can be said that Fort Meade's stubborn resistance made the chances of ACA success greatly reduced.

It's just that none of them know that in the ACA's offensive plan, Fort Meade must be taken before two o'clock in the morning.

And now, it's eight o'clock in the morning.

Six hours is enough time for the Allies to react and judge the strategic intent of the ACA. The road to Pittsburgh is blocked.

"Well, then I'm relieved." Ling Yu nodded lightly, basically had a clear grasp of the current situation, I have to say that unlike the pig teammates in the movie, at the strategic level, the alliance has a lot of talents, Yang Chengze and his staff must have judged the true strategic intentions of the ACA last night. Now when I ask myself, it is more Cheng dù that has the meaning of "testing your level".

"So you and your team take a break. We think the ACA will definitely send a force to pin down Strasbourg and then attack along both sides, and then it's time for the army to flex its muscles, and the supermen go home and rest. Yang Chengze said half-jokingly.

Ling Yu nodded, on the battlefield of the army, there was indeed nothing to do with TF. After all, TF is not a magneto, it is as strong as Herris, who can control the entire civilian network in Paris, and in front of the ACA's military network, it is a drone within a few hundred meters of the black, and it is just to ensure a safe radio channel.

The strongest part of the army lies in the system. This is also the difference between the modern army and the ancient warriors, everyone is a screw on this machine, in terms of strength is insignificant, but once this machine is activated, it will crush any individual in the way.

And Ling Yu also knew that he had a lot of work to do, all kinds of sabotage, assassination, and ambush.

"Understood, then I'll be on standby." Ling Yu gave a military salute, then turned off the communication device, and turned his head to look at Herris, who was still busy repairing the drone.

It's not over yet.

"Can you make me a hero next time instead of wiping your ass?"

Logan. Craig spread his hands, let out a long breath, pulled the stool in front of him, and sat down, grumbling helplessly.

At half past nine in the morning, the cafeteria at the Strasbourg base was just past breakfast and lunch had not yet arrived, so there was only coffee and leftover fries to heat up.

However, at breakfast time, it was overcrowded, and those who didn't have a mission had to give way to the troops who had a mission, so Ling Yu and Helis waited for Logan and them to come back while repairing the drone.

Logan, Linya and Han Fei came back a few hours later than Ling Yu, the reason was because a few people easily destroyed an ACA assault team tasked with sabotage, wasting some time, plus they were taking the road instead of flying, so they were naturally a little slower.

"I have to admit it," this time, even Linya, who has not always spoken much, protested loudly, carrying a tray with five cups of coffee and a bunch of fries, "this night is really quite uninteresting, if it weren't for the order, I could have killed a TF, in the Pentagon." ”

"Of course, such a night is 'not exciting.'" Logan smiled lightly and stretched out his right hand to put his right hand on the shoulder of Linya, who was sitting beside him, "Do you want to have a 'exciting' evening?" ”

"Eat the fries, Mr. Craig." Linya smiled lightly, picked up a french fry, and slammed it into Logan's mouth, slamming a palm fist into Logan's nose.

"I thought of a joke," Han Fei smiled deeply, "'Please use your right cheek and slam my left fist'. ”

"It's really your style," Ling Yu shuddered, took a cup of coffee and put it in front of Herris, and then shrugged his shoulders.

"Yo, there's something to eat, that's good."

Liana walked into the cafeteria, walked to the table, grabbed a french fries and stuffed it into her mouth, she and Logan arrived about together, but they had just been smoking outside.

"I just saw Martin. George Bernard Shaw too. Liana pulled a chair from next to her and sat down, sighing, "I don't know what will happen next." ”

"I have already told General Yang Chengze that at least a few of them will not be embarrassed, after all, without them, the president will probably have been hung on the flagpole of the Neptune when I passed." Ling Yu smiled bitterly.

"The Neptune is a submarine, it doesn't have a flagpole, and it's called a mast." Han Fei silently ate his fries to correct.

"The Secret Service should have a hard time in the coming days." Linya sighed as she took her coffee, "The censorship and purge can't run, but it's a pity that those who died in Washington ...... Even agents who were killed by their colleagues. ”

"It shouldn't be," Logan took a rare serious look and thought for a moment, "the living can't escape censorship and refrigeration, but there shouldn't be fewer dead people, at least Morgan will definitely be buried in the limelight." ”

“…… This is the political zhì. Liana sighed, closed her eyes, and rubbed her temples. (To be continued......)
