Section 33 Shelling Preparations
In addition to making his subordinates' morale high, General Eisenhower was waiting for reinforcements from the United States. This afternoon, this batch of reinforcements will arrive in South Africa. The ship was loaded with about 8,000 Marines and more than 10,000 Army soldiers. After all, the losses were too great two days ago. If you want to carry out landing operations, you must raise at least 50,000 soldiers, otherwise you will not be the opponent of the Chinese. You must know that China still has a large number of armored troops on the land of South Africa. If the number is not enough, you can only serve food to others. He does not want to become the second General MacArthur. Since General MacArthur is no longer the chance, General Eisenhower is the leader of the US military, especially the US Army.
This time, the US army's offense was more fierce than the last time. In addition to dispatching warships and bombing the shore, the naval aviation even went deep into the inland areas. Anyway, the Chinese air force had retreated, so there was no danger at all. They bombed all military targets in the inland. Kong Erlangzi had long thought of their approach. Others in China's attacks were also the same routine, so when attacking, they chose how to defend. The offensive of several meters underground would not be afraid of these airplanes, even if they weighed tons of shells, it would be fine.
In one day, 9,000 tons of shells were poured on the beachhead position, and one shell fell down almost every square meter. At that time, everyone opposed Kong Erlang's retreat, thinking that this was a very traitorous act. It was not easy for our soldiers to take this place, so why should we retreat now? Looking at the situation of the beachhead position, everyone was convinced. If we don't retreat, we would lose more than half of our strength during the enemy's bombing. It is far away from the mainland of the motherland, and every bullet lost must be transported from the motherland. Although South Africa has established several military factories, it can only be temporarily replenished and there is no way to be self-sufficient, so retreat is a very correct choice.
During today's bombing, a very interesting thing happened. Whenever the main guns of the battleship were fired, General Eisenhower would stand on the deck to watch this scene. It was said that this violated the rules of war, but they were the rulemakers and could do whatever they wanted. Moreover, it was far from the mainland and had already exceeded the range of bullets. General Eisenhower not only watched it himself, but also had to pull a group of British generals over. The British generals were also admiring and cursing the Chinese at the beginning, but soon they stopped saying a word, because 80% of the shells fired were American warships, and their British warships were small-caliber artillery most of the time.
General Montgomery only came out once, and the second time he said nothing, they were shameless, and they buried dissatisfaction from the bottom of their hearts. What does this guy Eisenhower mean? Let's see how powerful your American warships are? When our British Empire was ate the entire earth, you didn't know where you were. Now they are stronger than us. Do you have to show off your martial arts here?
The grudges between the United States and Britain are really hard to explain in a short time. Britain was unwilling to let these people stay in Britain, so it sent them all to the New World, and also described a beautiful blueprint to them, telling them that there are everything on this New World. In fact, what Britain occupied the northeastern region of the United States back then was not very rich in natural resources, so they had to lie. Who knew that later, the lies became true. The entire American continent was really rich in resources and there was no threat of war. So when war broke out all over the world, the United States could show its benefits. No matter how you fight, I am very safe here anyway.
It was from that time that the United States began their expansion. Whenever a war broke out, the Americans always brought all kinds of things to the battlefield and sold them to the belligerent countries to make two portions of money. This was the usual practice of the Americans, but World War II made the American wish fail. Japan and China were both unexpected and made the Americans beaten up, so they had to join the battlefield themselves. Now the United States is still the boss in the world. When they face the British, they hoped that the British would see their strength and see how they grew over the years. Didn’t you look down on us back then? Why do you rely on our abilities now? There is also a psychological gap between the British, which invisibly created the conflict between the two sides.
"It's really a villain who is successful and becomes arrogant. The Chinese people's words are absolutely true. When the United States had nothing, it was not necessary to follow our butts. During the First World War, it was because we believed the lies of these Americans, so that we would put all our troops into the battlefield. When the World War was over, our British Empire could not return to the peak of the world. Instead, these damn Americans became the world's bosses. I was so angry that I looked so angry. Look at his eyes, it was clearly provocative." General Montgomery sat there without saying a word, but the British generals next to him were almost crazy. They thought they were the proudest in the world and the most powerful in the world. They didn't value Americans much in their eyes, but they were slapped hard by the Americans outside.
"That's right, these savages have only developed for a few years and they feel that they are the world's bosses. Sooner or later, we will make them look good. Don't think that they are powerful now, but they will be powerful in the future. They are beaten up by the Chinese and cannot raise their heads. If they are forced to force me to cooperate with the Chinese and cheat these Americans here." Some British generals are getting too far more and more. The British people's thoughts are very extreme, and what they cannot stand is the contempt of others. However, the Americans do not take this seriously at all. What they are most willing to see is the arrogant British people bow their heads, so they always invite them to see the military authority of the US Navy, let them see who the world is in today's hands, and let you British people not seize command at all, and also have to see if you have the ability.
