Chapter 742 Flash 2

Mexico.

70 kilometers south of Nogares, on the banks of the Sonora River.

In the sunset, two reconnaissance air force hummingbird long-range reconnaissance aircraft circled twice along the dry ancient river channel on the west side of the river bank, aimed at the runway temporarily drawn with lime powder in the middle and slowly lowered the wheels. The wings unfolded like two returning eagles and landed steadily in the field airport.

In the airport, dozens of rookies carefully selected by the Mexican military to learn to fly here gathered together, staring at the pilots coming out of the hummingbird with envy, dreaming of the moment of flying in the blue sky.

As part of the alliance agreement, like the Japanese North Korean pilots that year, they will receive six weeks of training from Xinhua instructors. Although the Air Force is an industry with high ** technology export restrictions, Xinhua is almost responsive in pilot training. Due to Xinhua's advantages and combat experience in the air force, At present, there are hundreds of pilots from Asian and South American countries who are learning to fly in China alone.

A large special tent similar to a temporary hangar covers the whole riverbed, and even the senior level of the air force does not deny it. Compared with the rainforests of Panama, the desert salt lake terrain in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico is very suitable for the construction of field airports.

As before, the field airport is often the location of the army headquarters, so the headquarters of the Third Army is set up here.

As soon as Shoushan walked into the tent, the staff immediately handed in the latest battle report: "General, General Yongshan led the walkers to help Mexico stabilize the Monterey Mountain defense line in the east. In addition, the Ninth Secret Service has also arrived."

"Have the heads of all divisions come?"

"It's all here. It's in the conference room."

"Hmm." Shoushan nodded, pinched the war report and walked to the spacious tent next to him. When he saw Shoushan's soldiers standing guard outside, he immediately saluted. In the tent, dozens of division commanders were pointing out the map. After seeing him, everyone stood up and said hello.

"It's all here. Sit down."

The Third Army is mainly composed of the original Northwest Army and the Panama Army Group Army. It is also a real allied army. Among them, Japan and North Korea each have 5 divisions, 1 South American mixed division, and the rest are Xinhua Divisions, of which 2 are infantry divisions, 3 infantry divisions and 2 marine divisions. It is also equipped with a reading armored regiment, The 4th Air Force Division and the 6th Division in transit are also under the jurisdiction of the Army Group. Except for Yongshan's infantry division and a North Korean division going to the east to help Mexican troops stabilize the defense line, two marine divisions and one Japanese division are cooperating with Tijuana to attack San Diego, almost all the remaining officers above the regimental level have come here.

Obviously, there is a big task!

The division commanders are all rubbing their hands, and even the North Korean division commander with the worst combat effectiveness is eager to try. You know, the United States is not a barren Panama. If you can work hard, maybe everyone can make a lot of money.

There are no restrictions and restrictions on their mentality. The Xinhua General Staff and the Allied Joint Command. It is normal for soldiers to seize some private "war trophy" in their lives. As long as they do not hide the special "prohibited goods" in the regulations, they will not interfere. Instead, they also use transport ships to bring the trophy back to China. This is not only It ensures morale and greatly promotes the development of the postal industry. Even recently, special postal aircraft have appeared in China.

So every time they have a big task, the officers are very active, especially between Japan and North Korea. What's more, they still avoid the complex and difficult rainforest area. No matter how bad the North Korean army is, it is still not weak to fight with the U.S. military under such conditions.

Shoushan was very satisfied with everyone's state and said with a smile, "Well, it seems that morale is good. Are you ready to enter the United States?"

" Lieutenant General, please give orders!"

"We are ready!"

"

Hearing that everyone was full of momentum, Shoushan was not in a hurry and said, "Mr. Chen, let me tell you the situation first."

"Yes." The staff officer walked to the map and picked up the baton and said, "At present, after our second army captured Los Angeles, its main seven divisions have moved north to San Francisco. At present, the striker has arrived at Santa Clara (near San Jose) outside San Francisco, which is less than 60 kilometers away from San Francisco, and the other three divisions are heading Sacramento is advancing. The U.S. troops stationed there have become birds of shock. Investigation shows that they have begun to withdraw troops to the north of Oregon last night.

13 divisions of the First Army have arrived, of which seven infantry divisions are cooperating with our three divisions to attack San Diego, and the remaining seven divisions will also arrive in seven days.

In addition, the Fifth Army of North Korea and the Sixth Army have departed two days ago. It is expected that the first batch of 10 divisions will all arrive in Los Angeles in 15 days. The Fourth Army is also currently gathering, and all the above troops will arrive by the end of February at the latest.

"The above is our situation. Now let's talk about the U.S. military in front of us." The staff moistened his throat and continued: "After Los Angeles failed, half of the U.S. troops fled back to San Diego, but due to the lack of naval support, the fortress of San Diego could no longer hold on. They are accelerating their withdrawal to Arizona. Judging from the perspective of aircraft reconnaissance, most of them are concentrated on the Phoenix railway line, plus the previous deployment. The four armies here, the U.S. troops gathered in Phoenix, have reached six armies, about 1.1 million. If all San Diego is withdrawn, it is expected that the total number will reach eight armies.

In addition, the five armies stationed in New Mexico have also changed. One of the three armies that attacked Mexico has shrunk back, and the other two armies have begun to approach the Arizona border. The British North American Expeditionary Force, which was previously stationed in Colorado, has also begun to transship by rail. We expect that they are likely to I will also come to Arizona or New Mexico.

Another important situation is that the U.S. Army Department has reactivated Joseph Pershing. According to intelligence, he has now arrived in Dallas, which has become the headquarters of the U.S. Southwest Theater Command, and the U.S. military gave up the California retreat this time, which was also led by him!"

"So the Theater Command has decided to completely encircle and annihire the U.S. troops currently gathered in Arizona." Hearing the staff's words, Shoushan also stood up and signaled to distribute the combat plan he had just obtained to the commanders of the divisions before he continued to say, "From a geographical point of view, the north of Arizona is a plateau, the air is sparsely deserted, and there is no railway, so it is impossible for the main force of the U.S. military forces to pass from there, so the rest The troops must also go to Phoenix.

In addition, we can't let the U.S. troops stationed in Texas and New Mexico have the opportunity to support Phoenix, so in addition to cooperating with the First Army to encircle Phoenix this time, we must also quickly occupy Albuquerque from the Grand River and cut off the U.S. military coalition. Yes!"

"Do you have any questions?" After Shoushan finished speaking, he glanced at the crowd and asked.

"General, the plan is feasible, but now Juarez is in the hands of the U.S. military. If we attack Juarez, it will inevitably cause the U.S. military's concern. Maybe it will scare away the U.S. military in Phoenix, or make the U.S.S. military in New Mexico accelerate to the west."

"You can rest assured that we will not attack Juarez. The army is divided into two parts. One is to break through the border from Nogares to cooperate with the attack on Phoenix, and the other is to move east along the border, cutting off Deming and going straight north to the Rio Grande."

"General, Albuquerque is 300 kilometers away from Deming. If we want to cut it off quickly, our logistics and transportation capacity may not be able to keep up. And there will be at least two military interceptions along the way. We must transfer them first.

"That's exactly what I want to say." Shoushan nodded: "We don't have much time. The headquarters requires us to occupy Albuquerque within 4 days and cut off the U.S. military!" So I need the troops participating in the war this time to be full of energy. I will send all the trucks to help transport, and the Mexicans will also provide 3,000 carriages!

As for the interception troops, you can rest assured that my infantry will serve as the vanguard to protect your flanks, and the First Army Armored Division has set out, and they will attack and attract the attention of the U.S. military!"

"General, you said that the armored division set out from Los Angeles and crossed California and Arizona to attract the attention of the U.S. military?" The mountain field sitting next to him suddenly understood, but his eyes widened with surprise. It was at least 600 kilometers along the way, not to mention how many enemies intercepted along the way. I'm afraid that gasoline alone will have to be replenished several times. Isn't it crazy? However, he must also admit that if an armored division is really interspersed back and forth in the hinterland of Arizona, I'm afraid that the U.S. military will not be able to concentrate too many troops to intercept its side.

"Yes, so success depends on how many U.S. troops they can attract, but we can't put all our hope on them, and we have to be fast enough!" After saying that, Shoushan immediately shouted, "Major General Shanye, Major General Jing Chengen."

"Hi (yes)."

"Yesterday, 600 trucks and 60 armored vehicles just arrived, and 500 Lewis machine guns and bullets from Australia. You can take them all back later to strengthen the mobility of the troops."

"Give it all to us?" Hearing Shoushan's words, the two almost couldn't believe it. You know, although everyone is a coalition, Xinhua has also provided some assistance, but the main equipment and weapons need to be purchased from Xinhua or self-made. Due to the poor economic strength of the two countries, there are few machine guns and cannons after satisfying guns and ammunition, not to mention luxury trucks and armor. It's a car, so the army's firepower and mobility are not one or two levels worse than that of Xinhua.

After being shy, the troops of the two countries often stared at the machine guns and cannons left by the U.S. military in the search for loot. Anyway, Xinhua did not need it very much. After Panama, it saved a lot. The trucks also had more than 300 seized American cars, but compared with so many divisions, it was still a drop in the bucket, and the speed of U.S. military trucks was slow. Because of the lack of accessories, it is difficult to maintain, so I am very happy to hear that there are 600 trucks and 60 armored vehicles.

What's more, there are 500 Lewis machine guns captured in the Australian battlefield, which will greatly enhance the firepower strength of their troops, so the two were excited and immediately patted their chests and promised, "General, don't worry, with trucks and armored vehicles, we can definitely complete the task!" "

"Very good, let's go back and prepare. The attack will start tomorrow morning!"

"Yes."
