Almost half of the Eastern Slavic troops in the Southeast Military District have been transferred here.

Therefore, the current number of people in Mineral Water City and its surrounding areas is nearly 20,000. If militia groups are included, the number will be even higher, and it is expected to exceed 40,000.

The Americans invested almost 40,000 troops in the southeastern region, of which 20,000 were American troops. The Ottomans had 15,000 troops, plus 5,000 Georgian troops.

Judging from the number of people, the strength of both sides is almost the same.

However, the equipment of the coalition forces is much better. The United States is equipped with at least 400 fighter planes of various types, more than 1,000 tanks and armored vehicles of various types, and hundreds of armed helicopters.

If you add the power of the navy in the distance, the Americans have an absolute advantage.

Theoretically, the East Slavs should not have fought to the death with the Americans in the early stages of the war.

After all, the Americans have much better equipment, so fighting head-on with the Americans at this time will only lead to big losses.

However, the East Slavs did not have many choices. Mineral Water City was an important strategic fulcrum for the East Slavs. If it were lost, the pipeline for material support obtained from the Harris Kingdom, China, and Persia would be ruined.

Once the East Slavs lose support from the outside world, it will basically be difficult for them to survive what the Americans call a month.

Of course, there is also Volga City in the north, but Volga City is too far away, and it will waste a lot of time to transport supplies from China, Harris and Persia.

Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, Mineralnye Vody City must be defended.

The Americans saw this clearly, so they marched directly towards Mineral Water City.

The East Slavs were forced to gather their troops and start a battle with the Americans.

However, after the Americans captured Nalchik, they did not immediately send their troops northward. Instead, they adopted a more prudent approach. They first used air superiority to continuously attack Mineral Water City.

Even though many fighter planes were shot down by the air defense forces of Mineralnye Vody and Pytigorska, the American army always maintained a high pressure on Mineralnye Vody City.

From the day Ning Yi and Luo Lin entered Mineral Water City, they carried out intensive bombing on Patigoska and Mineral Water City almost 24 hours a day.

In two days, the two cities were basically bombed beyond recognition, and the fortifications were destroyed over and over again.

More and more people are fleeing.

At the same time, news came from Sochi. Sochi had been lost. After the Americans completely occupied the city of Tuopshek, they immediately sent their troops south to attack Sochi.

Although Nasnia is the goddess of war, she is not stupid enough to go head-to-head with the powerful American army, which is several times more numerous than her in terms of numbers and equipment.

However, before she withdrew from Sochi, she still joined forces with the coalition forces.

After seemingly escaping all the way, he turned around and fought an ambush.

In order to seize the credit from the Ottomans, the two battalions that advanced were crippled by the Nasnian ambush troops.

Then Nasnia withdrew from Sochi in a swaggering manner.

But no matter what, Sochi fell.

Including the Crimean Peninsula and Tuopshek, almost all of the important ports of the Eastern Slavs fell into the hands of the Americans.

The sea lanes of the East Slavs were completely blocked.

Once Sochi is lost, the sea channel disappears.

The next target of the Americans is naturally Nalchik. Once Nalchik is lost and the land route is lost, East Slavia will be like a lamb on the chopping board, waiting for the United States to do something.

Already.

On the third day after Ning Yi arrived in Mineral Water City, the American air raid finally weakened.

Since the war began, the Americans have launched more than 4,000 missiles and tens of thousands of bombs of various types.

Although supplies for the Americans are much easier than those for the East Slavs, sea transportation is now quite difficult.

The ammunition consumption was too high, and they themselves were in trouble.

But even if it weakens, Mineral Water City is already riddled with holes at this moment.

The morale of the East Slavs finally dropped to its lowest point.

Ning Yi and Luo Lin have changed their residences twice, and the places they lived in the first two times have been bombed.

These days, Ning Yi and Luo Lin have been pretending to be Hanovich's guards, but what makes Ning Yi feel a little puzzled is that Sang Yangsha has never taken action.

This also forced Ning Yi not to leave Mineral Water City.

Otherwise, with his personality, it is not impossible to travel hundreds of miles overnight to teach the Americans a lesson.

Several times, Hanovich's whereabouts were even deliberately exposed. He tried to lure Sanjansha to appear, but failed.

In addition to the irregular air raids by the US army, Mineralnye Vody City seems to have gradually become accustomed to this chaotic life.

So much so that Hanovich had some doubts as to whether someone really wanted to assassinate him.

But Ning Yi deeply understands that when he feels safer, it is often the time when his opponent takes action.

Americans have been silent for three or four days. The calmer it is, the more dangerous it is.

But the calm was soon broken.

Just as the East Slavs were concentrating on preparing for a decisive battle with the Americans, the Americans finally took action.

A riot broke out at the Logistics Supply Office in the west of the city, and a major officer in charge of logistics supplies was assassinated.

When the soldiers who had been supporting arrived, the opponent not only refused to retreat, but instead ambushed the army.

Then a Major, a close associate of Hanovich, hurriedly told Hanovich that warriors appeared in the west of the city and many officers were ambushed.

Moreover, the group was so fierce that no one could stop them. More than ten officers had already lost their lives.

Hanovich does not have much military power now. The former commander of the 1st Mechanical Division was a student of Hanovich, so he obeyed Hanovich. However, after Chikovsky, the commander of the Southeast Military Region, came over, Hanovich

Qi seemed a little embarrassed. In order to avoid disputes, he would ask those people to report everything to Chikovsky first.

After all, in addition to his reputation, Chikovsky is the leader of this team.

So as soon as Hanovich heard the news, he immediately asked the major who reported it: "Has it been reported to General Mitinovich and General Chikovsky?"

Mitinovich was his student and the commander of the First Mechanical Division.

The major officer nodded, but then shook his head: "The people who were ambushed included General Chikovsky, so General Mitinovich asked his subordinates to come over and report to you."

"Why was Chikov attacked?" Upon hearing this, Hanovich stood up immediately.

Ning Yi and Luo Lin on the side looked at each other and said nothing.

Chikovsky is the commander-in-chief of the Southeast Military District, while Hanovich is the military god of war in the East Slavic region and the number one person in the military. Both of them are now in Mineralnye Vody City.

This command authority is inevitably somewhat controversial.

Chikov actually rejected Hanovich in name only, and was unwilling to hand over the command of the Southeast Military District to Hanovich. In a sense, this was because the Russians wanted to replace Kersi.

A test of the status of the people and the military.

Therefore, although Hanovich is the first person in the military, he does not have much power.

Chikovsky just offered him up.

As a bystander, Ning Yi could see clearly, and Luo Lin also knew it well.

So when they heard that Chikovsky had been ambushed, both of them wanted to let him fend for himself.

However, Hanovich obviously didn't think so, and immediately asked people to prepare to go to the place where the incident occurred.

Ning Yi and Luo Lin could only shrug and followed up.

Along the way, the major officer told Hanovich the truth. The opponent might have two top masters in the middle to late yellow level, and it had been more than an hour since the ambush took place.

In other words, the major officer delayed telling Hanovich for at least half an hour.

Hanovich was so angry that he drew his gun and tried to kill the officer.

The officer was not afraid of life and death, and said with a pinched neck: "General, I know I was wrong, but how did that Chikovsky deal with you? We have to guard you day and night to prevent you from seizing power. It is clearly Xie

President Ergai sent you to disgust you. Why can the Americans find your location very accurately every time when they launch air strikes? It is obvious that he leaked your coordinates. He is unkind and we will be unjust. Once he dies, this Southeast Military Region

It will be returned to you, rather than being buried in his hands."

Hanovich stared at the officer, then kicked him in the leg for a long time, gritting his teeth and said: "If you can't save General Chikov, you just have to wait to pay for it with your life." (To be continued.)
