Chapter 1812: Preparations

wasteland.

Mexico, three hundred kilometers north of Mexico City, San Luis.

This important city on the Mexican plateau has been completely destroyed by the war. Looking down from a high altitude, the city's road squares are bombed-out buildings one after another. The shells and bombs of the house destroyed only the frame, and the ruins were scorched black.

This is the fighting area between the Aurora Legion and the American Baath Party, and the front line has been moved here from Queretaro in the past. It can be said that the Aurora Legion has been advancing step by step recently and has played very smoothly.

Zhou Qingfeng was patrolling at low altitude in a helicopter. Meng Xinjun, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, was explaining to him, "League commander, the current battle between the north and the south of Mexico has basically completed a stage. We have moved from a strategic stalemate to a strategic offensive.

The advance of the front line to St. Louis relieved the enemy's threat to our core area and turned the enemy from offense to defense. At present, we are stepping up the construction of the St. Louis line of defense, hoarding supplies and troops, and continuing to gradually push forward to squeeze the enemy's room for activity. "

Regarding what Meng Xinjun said, Zhou Qingfeng has read it many times in the report. Specifically, the "Mexico Union Front" controlled by the American Baath Party has been unable to move, and human resources have been exhausted.

Zhou Qingfeng was doing things in the real world, and the time in the wasteland has also advanced for more than half a year. During this period of time, he not only transported billions of tons of goods between two time and space, but also organized several large-scale battles. The anxious front finally exhausted the blood of the northern "Mo Tongzheng".

The casualties on Suzano's side are hard to estimate, but Zhou Qingfeng knows that the first ten Mexican infantry divisions formed by the Aurora Legion have long been exhausted, and even the more than fifty divisions formed as a backup have changed one or two soldiers. The total casualties exceeded two million, all of them young and middle-aged Mexicans.

Casualties were so great that the bulldozers on the front line had nowhere to dig holes.

Coupled with the implementation of the order to develop South America in the past six months, more than five million Mexicans have been sent to places such as Brazil and Venezuela. These people have just completed the initial settlement and facility construction, and they will immediately provide Zhou Qingfeng with more minerals and agricultural products.

As a result of the numerous corpses and large-scale migration, Mexico's indigenous population was directly reduced by half. There used to be more than 20 million and nearly 30 million people, but now there are only more than 10 million.

On the contrary, Zhou Qingfeng's Han population has increased to nearly one million. Some of them are locals who came to help, and some compatriots transferred from Africa and Europe. Compared with Mexico, life in other places is not good, there are more wars, and there is an endless stream of people fleeing.

Due to the stable life, Mexico is even ushering in a baby boom. A large number of school-age women have been fattened,

The obstetrics and gynecology department is the busiest in the hospital, and the demand for baby supplies has surged. Zhou Qingfeng was behind this matter.

The helicopter landed at a military camp on the outskirts of the city after a round of inspections. A row of officers rushed over immediately after hearing the news, saluting their boss in unison.

"Thank you, everyone." Zhou Qingfeng shook hands with the officers one by one, and expressed condolences at the same time.

There is a lot of heavy equipment in the barracks, including a group of armed helicopters and attack aircraft for ground support. This unit is the Third Guards Brigade newly formed by Zhou Qingfeng half a year ago. This is a heavy armored composite unit, especially suitable for fighting in the open Mexican plateau.

Zhou Qingfeng originally brought a large number of old-fashioned '59' tanks. These tanks are too old to be used in combat. M60 or M1 that encounters the enemy are all food deliveries. However, a large number of old '59' trained enough armored soldiers for Zhou Qingfeng, and now these armored soldiers have changed to VT series.

"Is the new tank easy to use?" Zhou Qingfeng asked during the inspection in the barracks.

The officers who followed the regiment leader immediately grinned hahaha. Many officers and soldiers were very disappointed or even pessimistic when they found out that they were using a grandfather-level '59'. The ghost knows where his boss got such junk, anyway, everyone doesn't like it.

However, after completing the most basic tank driving training on the '59, the third brigade began to change to heavy VT-4 tanks. The number is not many, only a hundred or so, but this tank is still not afraid of the M60A3, and it can also fight against the latest M1A3.

The third brigade of the guards is now proud.

Seeing the officers laughing, Zhou Qingfeng followed suit. This heavy brigade is his fist unit, and it costs a lot. The brigade-level combat command system alone is cutting-edge equipment. In order to train enough staff officers and officers to use this set of treasures, the money spent on drugs alone is two to three billion.

"The money for forming your brigade can be used to build five light brigades. If you don't fight well by then, I will be angry." Zhou Qingfeng was half joking and half serious.

In the past six months, the third brigade has been fighting and training. There have been no major battles, but there have been many small battles. They have never been defeated. The morale of the army is a bit arrogant. The equipment of this brigade is the best. Not only are there enough tanks and armored vehicles, but it even has an army aviation unit under its jurisdiction.

In response to Zhou Qingfeng's encouragement, the officers of the 3rd Brigade patted their chests and promised that they would never disappoint the expectations of the regiment commander. Even the former enemy commander-in-chief Meng Xinjun issued a military order stating that this direct army of their own is definitely the strongest in North America.

"We plan to advance step by step..." Meng Xinjun also wanted to introduce his next battle plan to Zhou Qingfeng.

But Zhou Qingfeng said in a low voice: "There is no need to advance gradually. Since the armored troops have been well trained, they should launch a surprise attack. If the 'Mo Tongzhen' does not have the strength to take the initiative to attack, it is our turn to kill. The B you reported earlier The plan, I approve."

Meng Xinjun was overjoyed when he heard the words, and even the officers of the third brigade who accompanied him were extremely excited. In the past six months, Zhou Qingfeng ordered the "turtle tactics" to "build a stronghold and fight a dull battle", using the Mexican troops to continue to consume.

This kind of dispatch is very suitable for the Mexican infantry division with poor military discipline, tactics, and equipment. But it is too aggrieved for the armored troops.

"How is the training of the thirty motorized infantrymen in Mexico going?" Zhou Qingfeng asked.

The "meat grinder" used for position defense consumed two million Mexican soldiers, but also trained tens of thousands of Mexican officers and non-commissioned officers. Alternating back and forth between the short training class and the battlefield several times, Zhou Qingfeng's Mexican army has undergone radical changes.

Because the war was too bloody, and there were too many dead people, in terms of murderous intent and initiative, several famous Mexican motorized infantry masters were even more ruthless than Zhou Qingfeng's direct ace. The aura played out in the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood is different, you should look at it with admiration.

"Legion Commander, where is our next goal?" Meng Xinjun asked eagerly.

"We have been entangled with the 'Mo Tongzhen' for too long, and it is time to solve them. Otherwise, it will affect our future North American strategy.

I plan to use twenty Mexican motorized infantry divisions to land from the sea and attack from east to west. And you marched by land, encircling from west to east. The destination is Monterrey, the home of the 'Mo Tongzhen'. "

Now it's time to get rid of Suzano, the little guy who got in the way.
