Yesterday evening, the Battle of Antioch ended in the afterglow of the setting sun.

The main force of the Texan and California coalition forces sang the Southern folk songs "Oh, Susanna" and "Yellow Rose of Texas", and marched in a line with great vigor to advance to the position of the Ming coalition army and accept the unified shooting.

It's like the Bali Bridge four years ago, it is devastated, but the knife and the fish and meat have been exchanged.

When the "Hua Yong Death Squad" was shot, the Ming Expeditionary Force retained firepower, which caused the opposing commander to miscalculate.

In fact, in the Denis coalition army, there were people who proposed a comprehensive retreat and relied on the city to fight street battles with the Ming Dynasty.

That was Hoffman, the former Oregon National Guard lone lieutenant colonel.

In the Xinji War last year, he suffered from the high rate of fire, high range, and high explosive damage of the Ming guns.

This time, as soon as he saw that the artillery of the Ming coalition army was more than double that of last year, he knew that this battle could not be fought like this.

The Ming Dynasty is less than 10,000, and it is impossible to fight.

Do not fight with the Ming people in the field or in the waves.

It's a pity that no one listened to him.

The martial and virtuous Texans strangled the barbarians beyond the horizon of the civilized world in the form of a battle.

Unable to convince them, Hoffman did everything in his power to organize a 20,000-strong city militia in San Francisco.

He shouted the slogan, "Every San Francisco must take up a shotgun and defend his city."

San Francisco is a large city with many buildings, and most of them are built of mine stones, which is very strong.

Hoffman was convinced that relying on the city for defense would bring down the efficiency of those killing machines.

His strategy was not wrong, but he didn't know that this time the Ming Expeditionary Force had added a new urban street warfare expert......

Stuffing a modified gas tank into the short-barreled mortar gun, Ji Gesi, the commander of the special combat team's demolition company, said with a smile: "Commander Guo, if it weren't for your Han cavalry to go around behind the enemy and completely cut off the retreat route of the Antioch rout, so that the regular army could not retreat to the city, our task would not be so easy!" ”

Boom –

There was another thunderous explosion.

The equivalent of 180 kilograms of TNT exploded with so much energy that it blew down the other half of the "Bank of California" building.

Ordinary gas tanks are filled with incendiary agent, and if necessary, iron nails and pieces of iron can be tied to the outside, and the result is the famous Bashar Happy Barrel.

This cheap and efficient weapon often appears in various battlefield news and is very popular among the local people.

It is clear that the president of the Syrian dentist is far from being born now, so the name of the weapon is different.

Since the Kentak Fried Chicken Shop was the first store to use gas canisters among the people, this weapon is now affectionately named "Kentak Joy Family Bucket".

With just one shot, the whole family will ascend to heaven and enjoy the ultimate pleasure.

With a violent explosion, the stone buildings and the rebels inside died in bliss.

On the contrary, the rather conspicuous churches in the city were not completely blown up.

Instead, the gates and part of the bunkers were smashed with artillery.

"Woohoo!"

Several well-trained military dogs rushed into it, causing a burst of crackling gunfire.

Immediately afterwards, a special squad wearing a full set of top-of-the-line bulletproof equipment kicked open windows and door panels as if a divine soldier had descended from heaven, and entered the church from all angles.

Under the opening of the way of the military dogs, they are like killing machines, with German three-year assault rifles that are more suitable for indoor combat, clear all obstacles and search inward.

Although there are still many gaps in technical actions, this set of procedures is indeed the standard process for later generations of U.S. military to enter homes to carry out tasks, such as the capture of Ben **.

It is said that in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the US military spent $100 million on the military dogs used up in the live-fire drill in advance.

Zhu Fugui didn't know if the purchaser of the Mi Army was too dark or what's going on, anyway, the military dog of the Daming Special Combat Team was an ordinary black-backed dog, and it seemed that the effect was not bad at present.

Wang Zhicun, a pig breeder of the farmer, has applied for a fund, intending to study the breeding of rich pigs with native pigs, and start studying Daming's own native military dogs.

It's just that Zhu Fugui is not very optimistic about his plan for the time being.

Because at present, the most local dogs in the Ming Dynasty are actually black and white dogs brought by the Aleutian people.

Although he is not very sure, Zhu Fugui thinks that this product is Erha.

I thought about the scene of Erha demining...... Zhu Fugui cut another 13 of the funds allocated to Zhicun West.

All in all, the special combat team led by Yang Liu, with the help of military dogs, finally successfully eliminated the enemy in the church.

After questioning an old priest in war English, they found the basement as they wished.

Thank God that once again his shepherds did not disappoint.

The special operators found nearly 100 boys in the basement.

After psychological counseling and treatment by the venereal dermatology department, the children will be admitted to Jinyiwei's special intelligence unit.

In the future, the best of them will become part of the "White Hound".

……

In addition to Xinhu, there are many other scattered colonial strongholds in northern California.

When the news of the complete liberation of the Greater Bay Area and the complete destruction of the colonial resistance forces reached Fengdu, it was already February 11.

This made Zhu Fugui's heart fall back into his stomach.

The gains from the capture of the rich northern part of California were much greater than in previous wars.

In this battle, the Ming Dynasty seized a total of gold, silver and other materials, equivalent to 3 million yuan of Dewu Tongbao.

In addition, Daming also obtained a large silver mine.

San Francisco, San Francisco, Zhu Fugui originally thought he could get a gold mine.

The reality, however, is that the gold mines here were hollowed out years ago, and it is the nearby Virginia silver mines that are now supporting San Francisco's prosperity.

Zhu Fugui really can't remember these names of ghosts.

He didn't even know how many Columbia, Virginia, Richmond he had conquered.

These are all common names in small towns, and it's impossible to figure out who is who.

After checking the information carefully, Zhu Fugui figured out the past and present life of this Virginia silver mine.

According to its original history, the silver mine would be excavated by the end of the century, and a total of $200 million worth of silver would be produced.

Now it is estimated that there are still 70 or 80 million dollars left.

Silver is a bit of a chicken for Zhu Fugui.

Because the price of silver in later generations was so cheap that it was not necessarily profitable to mine silver in this era.

Labor, mechanical, environmental pollution......

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Fugui decided to temporarily seal this silver mine, and look back to see if there was any old friend of the Ming Dynasty who was pleasing to the eye and obedient, and gave it away as a bargaining chip.

After conquering Xinhu City, next, Xinhang, Xinxia, and Xinsui are like stripped-naked lambs, slaughtered by others.

Therefore, this time, the Ming Expeditionary Force did not stay on the spot as usual and wait for post-war reconstruction.

After analyzing and judging with the General Staff Bureau of the Ministry of War, Zhu Fugui believed that the balance of the war on the east coast was being broken, and once the Southern Army surrendered or was eliminated, the Ming Dynasty would lose the historical opportunity to advance southward.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty will have to garrison heavy troops in the area of Johor Bahru Customs to resist the inevitable crusade of the federal government.

At the same time, it is necessary to guard against endless harassment from the three southern cities.

From various sources, Zhu Fugui learned the news that Texas had declared independence and established the Lone Star Republic.

On their self-published map, the east coast and the southern tip of the west coast are all designated as their sphere of influence, and I really don't know what Bilian calls himself a lone star. (See this paragraph for the map)

Originally speaking, Zhu Fugui did not intend to have a bad relationship with people in the southern states.

It's not that he cares about his personal relationship with the fashionista General Lee.

Although Zhu Fugui and Robert Lee are each other's confidants in modern art aesthetics, their personal feelings cannot override state affairs.

The reason why he temporarily hopes to maintain peace with the southern states is naturally to think of joining forces with Wu to resist Cao.

But it seems that Wu Guoren is not very honest and is suspected of backstabbing.

Then Zhu Fugui doesn't mind doing it first, let them be honest.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui ordered Qi Wenchang to continue to clear the south until he took down the god pressure dog that Ah Mei you saw.

In order to boost morale, Zhu Fugui also specially wrote a poem in the "Daming Times" and asked the supply ship to bring it to the front line.

"Seven Laws: Gift to General Qi"

The rocky wind and rain turned yellow, and 100,000 masters went down to southern Xinjiang.

The tiger is better than the past, and the world is turned upside down and generous.

It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord.

If there is love in the sky, the sky is also old, and the right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life.

——Famous Poet Zhu Fugui"

At this point, the battle for Southern California, known as the Battle of the "Sun, Moon and Setting Star", officially began between the Ming Empire and the Lone Star Republic.
