Chapter 1839: Collapse
On the eastern section of the US-Mexico border, the Rio Grande separates two countries and two forces. To the north of the river lies the city of Laredo, and to the south of the river lies the city of Nuevo Laredo. Lieutenant Rafael, the seventh division of the Mexican National Defense Forces, stood on the bank of the river, holding a telescope and looking across to the position layout.
It was so tragic that the Mexican Civil War finally ended. Rafael lost an eye and two fingers in this battle. The army has promised to replace him with artificial organs for free surgery, so he is not upset about his injury, and it will be good to survive.
In the Mexican Civil War, organized and unorganized opponents were completely different situations. The "Mo Tongzhen" will only continue to put short-term training soldiers on the battlefield to consume, and they don't care about the death and injury data, and there is no way to care.
The "Ink Solution Formation" has logistics and supplies. Although the initial battle is not a tactical one, the sacrifice is extremely huge, but with the backing of the Aurora Legion, the disabled officers and soldiers can receive short-term training as long as they can survive, and accumulate experience again. On the battlefield.
One side became weaker and weaker, and the other side became stronger and stronger. The final result was that when the Aurora Legion gathered enough qualified officers and soldiers of 50 motorized infantry divisions, they directly killed the "Mo Tongzheng" with the posture of "Autumn Wind Sweeping the Fallen Leaves" . Mexicans loudly celebrate the birth of their country.
It’s just that the American Baath Party is still standing behind the ‘Mexico Union Front’.
When a regiment of the 7th Division to which Rafael belonged was stationed in Nuevo Laredo, the thick barrel of the 1A3 was aimed at Rafael's camp, and the threat was clearly revealed.
In the face of a strong enemy, it is impossible to say that you are not afraid, and it is not bad to run without being frightened. Because of an impact from the opposite side, the Mexican motorcycle regiment in Nuevo Laredo would be completely wiped out in half an hour. And motorized infantry like Raphael really have no means of defense.
After searching Zhou Qingfeng's arsenal, there was really no equipment that could fight against the M1A3 on the ground. Even the newly acquired VT-4 is not good, the firepower, armor, and mobility are all behind. The Mexican army doesn't even have VT-4, at most it uses the captured M60A3 to fill the scene.
In addition to tanks, the Ba'athist troops on the opposite side are also equipped with armed helicopters and air superiority fighters. These planes hovered opposite Rafael's position and barracks every day, and the roar was very loud. Raphael couldn't sleep well for half a month after being tormented.
But after being nervous for half a month, the other side suddenly sent someone to ask..., "Brother, you don't really want to call here, do you?"
Raphael still remembers the nervous and flattering face of the Baathist company commander when he received him. In the past, American soldiers have never been so kind to a Mexican, especially those Texans who think that Mexicans are born drug dealers, thieves, coolies, and garbage.
After that, Raphael told his soldiers, his officers, and the ordinary Mexicans around him countless times-you never imagined that those Texans were more afraid than us. For the first time, I felt that I could hold my head up and straighten my back in front of white people.
The city of Nuevo Laredo was actually built on the basis of the city of Laredo in the United States on the opposite side. The Mexicans in Nuevo Laredo have always lived on the leftovers of the whites in Laredo on the opposite side, depending on the face of the other side to survive.
Before Rafael was stationed in Nuevo Laredo, the Baathist troops on the opposite side often crossed the border to carry out "security purge" and eliminate the so-called unstable elements. But when the Mexican National Defense Force represented by Rafael appeared, the white soldiers on the opposite side would no longer be able to bully others at will.
The Ba'ath Party deployed more than a dozen divisions on the border, but the Aurora Legion deployed more than 30 divisions on the border. The Ba'ath Party has deployed dozens of fighter jets and helicopters on the border, and the Aurora Legion can pull all over a hundred fighter jets to support the situation, and even aircraft carriers can come over to launch air strikes.
Now every time Rafael walks out of the barracks, the Mexicans in the market know him and are willing to listen to his jokes that he has told a thousand times, and every chat can trigger hearty laughter. Raphael felt that he could play this joke for the rest of his life.
But today Raphael held up the binoculars and looked at the opposite side, not to collect material for jokes,
Now a small bridge has been built over the Rio Grande, and several convoys are passing on the bridge. These convoys transported large quantities of goods and materials, and even people.
The Aurora Legion sold all kinds of daily necessities for food, clothing, housing and transportation, while the officers and soldiers of the Baath Party on the opposite side collected the goods needed by the Legion and shipped them over. Sometimes there is really no goods on the opposite side, so they simply sell the equipment or even the secrets in their hands.
Raphael didn't make a dime from these trades. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's because of the strict military discipline, who knows if the soldiers under him are the eyeliner of 'Cat's Claw'? But the Baath Party officer and soldier on the opposite side got rich in a short period of time, and all their officers got fatter.
All of this was due to one thing—the leader of the Baath Party opposite said personally that he would "elect Victor Hugo as the emperor of the Holy American Empire." As soon as this declaration came out, the entire Baath Party was in an uproar.
As a result, the morale of the entire army quickly collapsed. Especially the dozen or so divisions directly confronting the Aurora Legion, all officers and soldiers are not stupid-your boss Osborn is about to raise the white flag, do you want us to sacrifice? We also want to reap some benefits.
As more and more benefits were reaped, the Baath Party troops on the other side were even less interested in fighting. Now the convoy that trades every day is unimpeded, and the officers stationed opposite come over from time to time and ask, ‘You didn’t receive a combat order today, did you? I have already decided to revolt, and I firmly support His Majesty Victor Hugo. '
As long as there is money to be made, who is not the emperor?
Today, Holy America is only a verbal concept, but these Baath Party officers and soldiers stationed on the border can be said to be the ones who most hope for Victor Hugo to ascend the throne, and they can also be said to be the first to taste the benefits of His Majesty's reign.
The senior Baath Party officers stationed at the border are still bargaining with the Aurora Legion, but the low-level officers and soldiers on the border have already racked their brains to do business.
Not enough transport vehicles, they will pull out military vehicles. If the fuel or electricity supply is not enough, they will use the materials they have prepared for war. If someone obstructs them, they will drag their own people into the water, or kill the troublesome 'patriots'.
So why are Texans patriotic? What's wrong with Texans maintaining American traditions? What's wrong with a Texan with a hot temper? Texans have to make money too - to deal with a stubborn Texan, find a group of more stubborn Texans.
This embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by ant nests. Now that Raphael sees the white Baathist officers on the opposite side, he can already joke with them openly. He is no longer afraid of the M1A3 gun barrel on the opposite side, and he doesn't care about any battles. There are ghosts.
While the top leaders of all parties were still guessing how long the Baath Party could last, the officers and soldiers at the bottom had already felt that the Baath Party had collapsed.
