Pittsburgh, a large industrial city with a population of nearly 200,000 in Pennsylvania in the northeastern United States, no longer has the hustle and bustle of the past, except for the black servants who wear khaki yellow servant uniforms and want to insert revolvers and constantly patrol under the leadership of a Huo family army soldier everywhere on the streets, the whole Pittsburgh is deserted!

"Haiyun, it's been almost two weeks since we occupied Pittsburgh, how is the relocation going?" Wu Guangzong asked with a serious expression after retracting his gaze from the map of Pittsburgh City on the table. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

With the great stride of Huo's army, the Americans no longer had the patience to wait for the training of the troops to be completed, this time in addition to leaving 50,000 people to watch their homes, almost all of the remaining 250,000 troops pressed up, and the first to bear the brunt was the Fourth Route Army led by him!

The Americans are not stupid, they understand that if they attack in an all-out way now, with the inferior quality of their soldiers, they are likely to suffer defeat, so they almost abandoned the entire southern region, and all the 50,000 troops stuck to Washington, Philadelphia, New York, the most important northeastern states and cities in the United States, and then concentrated all their forces, gave priority to attacking, and occupied this squadron in Pittsburgh! Relying on the superiority of local warfare, the Americans did not want the Huo Jiajun to come up with enough troops to maintain the security of the rear occupation area, so they could completely use the number of troops far exceeding the Huojia Army to eat the entire eastward advance of the Huojia Army in one bite! The longer the time drags on, the more troops the United States will complete its training, and the greater the chance that the United States will win this Sino-US war!

So. In the first step, the Americans pressed more than 200,000 troops to the city of Pittsburgh, although the Americans had many troops, but there was a railroad to the rear. Their logistical supply was not much difficult!

However, the Fourth Route Army of the Huo Jiajun Army has become much more dangerous! Compared with the Americans, the establishment of the Fourth Army in the Americas Theater is really too small because there is only one regular division! Therefore, Wu Guangzong and his Fourth Route Army must take away all the industrial equipment and personnel in this most important industrial city in the United States in the shortest possible time, and then withdraw to the west bank of the Ohio River, and then rely on this natural danger to block the attack of the Americans and further plunder the wealth of the Americans!

Hearing Wu Guangzong's question, Huo Haiyun, who had just become the political commissar of the Marine Corps for less than a year, immediately said, "Commander. Within two weeks, we have moved all the faculty and students from universities, technical schools, and colleges, such as the University of Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh Business School, to the rear. In addition, most of the workers in Pittsburgh have already moved away except for some to help us relocate the factory, and I believe it will take another two weeks. Pittsburgh will go from being an industrial city back to the Stone Age!" Also thanks to the developed railroads on the territory of the United States!

Hearing this, Wu Guangzong couldn't help but smile and nodded, after taking Pittsburgh, the young master had specially explained to him that he must pack the University of Pittsburgh, which has been established for hundreds of years, and the many skilled steelworkers here back to the territory of the Huo Jiajun, and not one of them should be missed!

"Well, two weeks isn't a long time! But to save time, and the whole Great Lakes Triangle is now undergoing a major relocation. The train must be tight, so you don't have to bring all the machines back to Chicago or the West Coast. You can transport them to Canton or Mansfield in the rear first! And then transport them back to the rear step by step! In this way, we can quickly withdraw to the rear after we have made the Americans suffer a loss, and reduce the losses of our troops by virtue of the defense of the Ohio River!"

"I understand, Commander!" Looking at Huo Haiyun's face, it was obvious that he had already taken what he had just said to heart, so Wu Guangzong didn't say anything!

"Huaicheng, how is the situation of the other troops?" Wu Guangzong continued to ask.

"Commander, now the other three units of our Northern Route Army, in addition to the First Route Army, the Second and Third Route Armies have successfully completed their tasks, and are relocating equipment and personnel in accordance with the military strategy formulated at the beginning, recruiting black servants, and beginning to establish defensive positions along the Ohio River! In addition, the three units of the Southern Route Army and our First Route Army have also taken all the important cities and towns in their respective occupied areas, but because the terrain in the western region is complicated and the transportation is inconvenient, I am afraid it will take one to two weeks to occupy them all! Wang Huaicheng, chief of staff of the 4th Marine Division, replied with a serious expression.

"Well, I see! By the way, how's the recruitment of our new Servant Army?"

"According to the commander's orders, the first batch of 30,000 blacks has been recruited, but in the process of recruiting many whites, but in order to prevent spies from the United States or other countries among them, we did not ask for them! Now these 30,000 people are being trained by the servant army who had previously enlisted in the major cities in the rear that we occupied!" Wang Huaicheng said.

"Hehe, it seems that the economic crisis of the Americans is really very serious, and even whites have begun to join our army!" Wu Guangzong said with some surprise.

"Yes, the United States is originally a country of immigrants, and except for those Americans who have been in the United States for many years and were born and raised, new immigrants from all other regions do not have much affection for the United States as a country! So for the sake of livelihood, it's not strange to join our army!" Huo Haiyun said with a smile.

"Well, you're right, but the white people are so arrogant and arrogant that it will be difficult for them to obey our commands. Although the blacks are a little stupid, they have been oppressed by the Americans for a long time, so they have a natural hatred for whites, especially Americans, and their physical fitness is also good, I believe that as long as we train strictly, supplemented by strict education, I believe that in half a year, they will become a qualified army, and when we face the Americans, we will not be so overstretched in terms of troops!"

Speaking of this, Wu Guangzong remembered the young master's plan for the future theater of the Americas! With a large number of whites moving to Nanyang or the western United States, and the Huo Jiajun recruiting black servant troops on a large scale, I believe that in the future, there will be nearly 10 million more whites and blacks in the entire Huojia Army, which means that in the future, there will be soldiers of three colors in the Huo Family's army. In the future, how to pinch them together and form combat effectiveness will be a new difficult problem faced by the Huo Family Army and the Military Department in the future!

As the commander of the American Theater of Operations, as well as the commander of the Pacific Military Region, and as one of the few high-ranking officers within the Huo Jiajun, Wu Guangzong of course also had a good understanding of the situation facing the Huo Jiajun! Therefore, he also began to consciously and gradually begin to improve the treatment of the black servant army, and selected outstanding ones from among them to supplement the regular troops of the Huo Jiajun Army, so as to accumulate experience for the future construction of the troops!

"By the way, what happened to Liu Zhenfei, the commander of the 60,000 black servant army, who still has an opinion?" Thinking of Liu Zhenfei, the commander of the Fourth Marine Division, who was left in the rear, recruiting troops and expanding the black servant army, while cooperating with the Political Department of the Fourth Marine Division to carry out the relocation work, the big man who asked to go to the front line to participate in the war several times, Wu Guangzong couldn't help but ask.

Hearing the commander's question, Huo Haiyun and Wang Huaicheng couldn't help but smile awkwardly! Unlike them, Liu Zhenfei was the chief of staff when the Fourth Marine Division was first formed, and later the division commander and political commissar of the Fourth Division were transferred to work in the Pacific Military Region Command, and Liu Zhenfei was promoted from the post of chief of staff to the commander of the Fourth Division.

Looking at their appearance, Wu Guangzong understood what they were thinking! However, he was not asking anything, Liu Zhenfei, commander of the Fourth Marine Division, had a very similar personality to the current Minister of War Huo Hu's personality, his temperament was as fierce as fire, and his temper was fiery, and he could be said to be a good brave general, but as a senior officer of the Huo Family's army, he still lacked training, which is why Wu Guangzong put him in the rear this time!

"Huaicheng, how is our military deployment?" After a moment of silence, Wu Guangzong then asked.

As soon as he talked about the military plan, Wang Huaicheng's expression suddenly became serious!

"Commander, the 18,000 soldiers of the 4th Marine Division have set up strong fortifications within thirty kilometers east of Pittsburgh in accordance with your orders! In addition, the command of the American Fleet established in the city of New Orleans has sent forty river gunboats according to our request, and they have now reached the Wheeling area of the Ohio River, and they will reach the harbor of Pittsburgh in eight hours!"

"And now the troops of the Americans are advancing there?"

"According to the secret report of the Military Intelligence Agency, the forward troops of the Americans have now reached the small town of Sanger 100 kilometers east of Pittsburgh, and most of the US troops have also reached Altoona, and I believe that in two days, they will be able to reach the periphery of Pittsburgh! According to the analysis of our General Staff, I am afraid that our war with the Americans will break out in an all-out manner within four to six days!" Wang Huaicheng said.

"The Americans are advancing so fast! It seems that they have already made clear what we are doing!" After using a red pencil to circle the several places that Wang Huaicheng said just now on the map, Wu Guangzong couldn't help but squint his eyes and said with a calm expression.

"I'm afraid that's really the case, Commander! Our move of recruiting blacks can't hide the Americans who have the advantage in the home field, and as long as they analyze the information in their hands, they will naturally understand the current predicament of our lack of troops! In order to win the war, to consolidate our own rule, and to give an explanation to Congress and the people, the Americans will certainly not let go of this opportunity to defeat us!"
