Chapter 794 Rocket? What is it?

@@@@@ "A little bit on the left, yes, yes, forward, forward."

"Stop!"

On the apron, under the command of the soldiers, a wild cat armored vehicle steadily drove into the airship from the tail hatch. Sun Jiugong, who came to supervise the battle in person, was also very interested in seeing this scene. Although only six cargo airships that came to support from Honolulu have the ability to transport armored vehicles, if the number is more, if possible What kind of scene should it be to transport tanks?

I remember that the emperor said before that when the plane is mature, it can be used for heavy equipment transportation. Since the plane has not reached this level for the time being, it is a good way to use an airship.

It's just the protection and speed of the airship, which is a little poor.

Luo Feng and Shoushan, standing behind, thought that Sun Jiugong was worried about the first airborne regiment, and immediately said, "There are few 6 wildcat armored vehicles every time, but the nearest support troops of the U.S. military are second-line reserve divisions, and their combat effectiveness is not much higher, and this is not equipped with one of our army reinforcement battalions and 10 rockets. Well, it should be possible to keep it for 48 hours.

"There is no problem with the light guard. I'm afraid the commander is worried about the safety of the landing site." Shoushan saw through the most critical place at a glance.

"Yes, with one regiment and one battalion, there are more than 4,000 people, and the defense circle will definitely not be expanded too much." When Sun Jiugong spoke, the last airship was ready to send a signal at the same time. 36 airships rushed into the sky in turn, and then the escorted Mustang fighter and the ground-supported Raytheon bombers also began to take off.

In fact, everyone is very clear that it is not realistic for a light force with only four thousand armored vehicles to block tens of thousands of people. Whether the task can be completed perfectly depends on the air force's combat capability in 48 hours.

Since the birth of the Air Force, there has never been such a tense and severe 48 hours. At present, the Empire has 2 air force divisions in the United States, with a total of about 800 fighters of all kinds, and more than 400 aircraft have participated in this mission. Basically, it has taken out all the air engine power that can be used in the North American theater. Quantity.

Of course, Sun Jiugong is not the person who put eggs in a basket. He is also ready on the ground. The first armored division and the third infantry division have moved north from Albuquerque to Colorado. Once there is an accident and the airship is unable to carry out airship transportation, the airborne regiment will shrink and hold on, waiting for the forced rampage. Two mobile troops through Colorado and the Great Plains of Kansas arrived.

Seeing that the airship left smoothly, Sun Jiugong immediately walked to the base headquarters. The two people behind him could see that he was a little nervous, but they were not surprised. The previous task involving one or two regiments would never worry the commander-in-chief of the North American theater, but this time it was different.

That's about 3,600 tons of gold! I'm afraid that a little loss will make people suffer to death.

"Report, emergency military situation."

"What's the matter?"

As soon as Sun Jiugong and his party stepped into the headquarters, the air force staff ran over with a telegram: "Report to the commander-in-chief, the reconnaissance aircraft just now found that the U.S. reserve infantry divisions in Arkansas and Missouri also seemed to have received orders and were moving towards Kansas. The U.S. troops in Colorado and Oklahoma have also Start movement on all roads from Kansas to our control area.

In addition, the Chicago Intelligence Station has just sent a message that about 250 Curtiss D300 attack aircraft and camel fighters have just taken off from Chicago, and it is expected that the target may also be Kansas. The staff officer walked to the map and drew a line between Chicago and Kansas and continued, "From the distance, it is about 600 kilometers from Chicago to Kansas. According to the speed and range of the U.S. military aircraft, they need to refuel halfway. We expect to arrive in about 4 hours, that is to say, this batch The supporting aircraft is likely to arrive at the Kansas vault at the same time as our transport airship!"

"Can you intercept it?"

"It can be intercepted."

"Our Mustang combat radius is 700 kilometers. On this basis, we can ensure a 30-minute stagnant battle time. If the auxiliary fuel tank is mounted, it can be extended to 850 kilometers. Because it is impossible to grasp the range and specific time of the U.S. military aircraft, I suggest that scouts should be sent out for reconnaissance immediately. At the same time, the fighters should be divided into several batches and taken off at different times, so as to ensure that the reconnaissance aircraft will not have no aircraft available after finding the enemy, but I'm afraid that this will delay a large number of our fighters. It will reduce the power to escort the bombers.

"I can't control so much. Let the bombers responsible for blocking the battlefield be more careful. If it doesn't work, use high-altitude bombing to reduce the danger. Let the fighters take off and intercept immediately, and never let them approach!"

"Yes."

After the staff officer left, Luo Feng took out a cigarette and handed it to Sun Jiugong and Shoushan. He laughed and said, "This time, we have stabbed the hornet's nest!"

Shoushan lighted a cigarette and laughed, "Yes, there are three reserve divisions in Kansas, several reserve divisions in Arkansas and Missouri, plus the nearby Oklahoma, there are a total of more than 15 infantry divisions, 500 aircraft, and about 150 tanks!"

"Damn it, I really look up to that bastard Dong Dahai!"

"Ha ha." Hearing that Shoushan, who was gentle in appearance, also said rudely, Luo Feng and Sun Jiugong smiled one after another. Nearly 4,000 tons of gold, I'm afraid anyone can't stand it. If it hadn't been for the previous attack on Texas and tied the main force of the U.S. military to the three states of Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi, maybe it would be 100 divisions to deal with Dong Haihai and the airborne regiment at this moment!

"Report, the news from Washington that U.S. President Melkin was hospitalized due to illness at 10 o'clock last night. The current situation is unknown." Before the three continued to speak, the staff officer once again brought a surprising piece of information.

Ten o'clock last night?

The three immediately looked at each other in front of each other. Dong Dahai launched an attack at nine o'clock, and the airborne soldiers also jumped off the plane at that time, that is to say, Melkin was probably "sick" because of the news!

"Fuck this, fuck!" Luo Feng smoked a cigarette and said, "Is it possible that our airborne troops have become the president of the United States? Jump once, one sick?!"

When everyone was amused by Luo Feng, Sun Jiugong immediately walked to the map.

New Mexico and the north of Texas should have been used by Pershing to contain themselves. The U.S. military covering the main force has been led away by gold at this moment. Now there is news that the President of the United States is sick and hospitalized. Presumably at this moment, the U.S. military must be the most chaotic time. Should I do it?

..“ Airship, the airship is coming!"

Hearing the shouts from the temporary observation post on the top of the mountain, Shao Chang was the first to rush out of the bunker and saw that all the airships with the first batch of gold left last night came back, which showed that there was no accident on the way. Gold should have arrived in Albuquerque.

"Quick, catch the rope."

"Moving team, get ready."

Shao Chang looked at his watch. It's 8:25 a.m., and 10 hours have passed since yesterday, which means that if the U.S. military acts quickly enough, the U.S. military from the nearest Kansas should arrive in two or three hours at most. It must hurry up!

Shao Chang quickly grabbed a rope thrown from the airship and helped the airship stop steadily on the sand with the soldiers.

The scene of thirty-six large airships landing at the same time was extremely considerable, but this was also the last time. Shao Chang knew that it would be impossible to take this centralized landing method in any case, because when they came back again, I'm afraid it was already a pot of porridge.

Before Shao Chang could think too much, the hatch at the rear of the airship slowly opened. When a night cat armored car came out of it, he was also slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, the armored vehicles were transported directly from above this time.

The arrival of the night owl relieved Shao Chang. Although there were only six for the time being, it meant that there was finally a mobile force. At a certain moment, these wildcat armored vehicles equipped with 12.7mm viper machine guns also had the ability to deal with enemy tanks, but when he turned his eyes to the back of the armored vehicles, he was suddenly stunned. .

I only saw that there was also a "traw cart" with 12 thick pipes like a hive. The pipes were neatly arranged in four or four groups of squares. Before he could understand what it was, the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion who came to support the airship next to him had begun to carry long wooden boxes down. .

"Report, Haitao, the reconnaissance battalion of the Lu 27th Division, was ordered to come to support."

"Shao Chang, commander of the second battalion of the first airborne regiment." After a salute, Shao Chang pulled the battalion commander Haitao, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, and then asked, "Camp commander Hai, what is this?"

"The 12 tubes of 120mm traction rockets have just been sent from China for less than three days. I didn't hear that you are in an emergency here, so the commander-in-chief asked us to bring it to support you."

"Rocket cannon? What is it?

Before Haitao's answer, Dong Dahai had come over. He seemed to know the rocket and knew the purpose. After squinting his eyes, he no longer paid attention to it. Instead, he took out the telegram he had just received and handed it to the two people: "The report of the reconnaissance plane found a large number of cavalry 30 kilometers away from the southeast. From the scale, there are at least three regiments, which is expected to be 40 points. We can reach our defense line in a minute.

"Damn it, it's quite fast."

"Yes." Dong Dahai nodded: "The air force is on its way. It should be able to block it for us first, but the cavalry is very fast and the impact is strong. We must also prepare for the worst! So Shao Chang, you have to speed up. From now on, all the airships must take off in an hour!"

It takes an hour to complete the loading of 540 tons of gold. It's really busy enough to rely on manpower, so Shao Chang didn't care about the rocket launcher and immediately commanded the soldiers to carry the already wrapped gold to the airship.

"Hai Battalion, arrange all the rockets to the top of the mountain. In case the air force can't catch up, I need you to ensure that the range of the enemy's artillery is suppressed outside the landing site." After Dong Dahai finished speaking, he immediately boarded a wildcat armored car that had just arrived.

"Boom"

From afar, a dull explosion indicates that the hard 48 hours have finally begun.
