Chapter 2138 The U.S. Army suffered heavy casualties
It is said that Tang Feng led the Death God mercenaries to land on the beach from Jeju Island, which was equivalent to a sneak attack on the enemy's rear. In comparison, the casualties were very small. In addition, the JN Military Region provided strong air support, and the progress was smooth. However,
The main forces of both sides launched an unprecedented massacre on the border between North Korea and South Korea.
Originally, there was a buffer zone in the middle of the border between South Korea and North Korea, called the Public Surveillance Zone, where neutral countries like Switzerland sent people to perform this task. However, as time passed, this buffer zone became less
Obviously, the surveillance personnel sent by neutral countries such as Switzerland are gradually withdrawing. Therefore, North Korea and South Korea have stationed a battalion of troops here, less than 2 kilometers apart, and there will be troubles due to gunfire from time to time.
Now that the two sides are fighting, this buffer zone has become the place with the highest concentration of cannon fodder. North Korea's 300,000 troops plus the 100,000 troops sent by the SY Military Region total 400,000 troops. South Korea has sent eight legions, totaling 400,000 troops.
of troops, plus the 100,000 troops of the United Nations, for a total of 500,000 troops.
This war is destined to be recorded in history. After all, a war involving millions of troops is not comparable to today's so-called local wars. Even in the Gulf War that year, the United Nations forces involved a total of sixty countries.
To send out troops, a total of nearly 100,000 soldiers were mobilized.
It was so powerful that it made Saddam cry for his father. It was precisely because of the Gulf War that Iraq's air power suffered heavy losses. Later, the defeat was restricted by international conventions. As a result, when the United States launched the Iraq War, the Iraqi Air Force actually
It only has more than a hundred fighter planes.
In less than a day, the death toll on both sides reached 80,000, which is simply unbelievable. If the war continues, no one knows how many people will die in the end. However, one of the data is more intriguing
.Among the soldiers who died on the first day, American soldiers accounted for one-third, Chinese soldiers accounted for one-fifth, South Korean soldiers accounted for one-fifth, and the remainder were North Korean soldiers.
According to common sense, the main forces of the two sides in this battle are the North Korean army and the South Korean army. After all, in terms of numbers, the strength of the two countries is 300,000 and 400,000, which far exceeds that of Country Z and the United Nations.
Number of people. However, the actual result is that Americans died the most.
This result is unacceptable, especially to the American people. You know, in the Korean War, only 60,000 people died in the United States, but it felt that it was already unbearable and was eventually forced to withdraw its troops from North Korea. Now,
On the first day of the war, nearly 27,000 people were lost. This death figure spread to the United States, and the whole country became extremely angry, demanding that the United States withdraw its troops and abandon South Korea.
The United States is a very democratic country. Even if the U.S. Congress forcibly participates in the Korean War, if there is a large amount of opposition from the American people, then the President of the United States and the members of the House of Lords and the House of Commons must carefully consider whether this war is
It must go on.
The previous presidents of the United States were all embroiled in the quagmire because of the war, and ultimately ruined their political careers. If Ohetuzki insists on going his own way, he will probably end up with a dismal resignation.
The U.S. Congress immediately held a second meeting to re-examine the issue of aid to South Korea. After a day of fierce fighting, it is an indisputable fact that the U.S. military suffered heavy casualties. What is particularly critical is that the U.S. aircraft carrier was blocked by the nuclear submarine group of country Z.
, cannot cross the TW Strait, and is even less likely to pose any threat to North Korea.
If TW were still in the hands of the Kuomintang, it would be easy for American aircraft carriers to pass through the TW Strait. But at this moment, the aircraft carrier has lost its role.
In the end, the U.S. Congress decided to continue to increase troops. Since it has decided to continue the fight, if it gives up halfway, it may have a worse impact. Now, we can only bite the bullet and continue the fight.
The result of biting the bullet is that a large number of American soldiers have chosen to retire. They grew up in a country that values democracy, and they are not willing to make fun of their own lives. There are less than 100,000 people in total, and the mortality rate is as high as 27,000.
More than a quarter. No one would be so stupid to participate if this probability were placed on them.
Faced with this situation, the U.S. government could only express its deep helplessness. After all, this war is not about defending the country. It violates the U.S. Constitution to let so many people die in vain.
The U.S. Congress can only continue to hold meetings and strive to come up with a better plan as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, their discussion did not bring any benefits. As the war continued on the second day, the death toll of the US military rose sharply, reaching a total of 50,000, nearly half of it.
This news spread to the country, causing more people to demonstrate in public. With a mortality rate as high as 50%, what is the point of fighting this kind of war? If it continues like this, the US military may really be annihilated. As for
The troops sent by countries such as France and Britain will also be wiped out completely.
These members of the U.S. Congress can no longer sit still. They can imagine the reaction of the American people. So many people died fighting in other countries, and even the compensation is already an astronomical figure. In addition, the U.S. military’s losses in this war
Even if we can win this war, it will probably be quite uneconomical.
The importance of South Korea to the United States is self-evident. But if the war continues like this, I am afraid that the United States will be trapped in it and unable to extricate itself.
Tang Feng did not know these things. Because he led 20,000 Death God mercenaries and 30,000 elites from the JN Military Region, he had successfully broken through the enemy's blockade and successfully advanced towards Busan.
Although the Fourth Army of the South Korean Army suffered a blow in terms of air power, its overall strength was still very strong and its casualties were not large. Therefore, the two sides engaged in a fierce fight on the outskirts of Busan City.
You know, the outskirts of Busan City are basically a flat plain with no obstacles at all. The fight between the two sides looks more like a fight between gangsters, except that they use hot weapons, while the gangsters use hot weapons to fight.
It's a cold weapon.
In such a situation, the accuracy of marksmanship is particularly important. At this time, the power of the Death Mercenaries finally becomes apparent.
The marksmanship they developed in the hail of bullets is far beyond what the Korean soldiers in front of them can match. Although many troops also conduct shooting training, this kind of training has no meaning in real combat. After all, people are mobile.
Yes, the target is immobile. Once on the battlefield, no one will stand still and wait for the other party to shoot.
To be more precise, shooting relies on a kind of feel. Many excellent shooters can kill the opponent with one shot when facing danger. It is this kind of feeling that makes them shoot at the target every day.
It can be practiced, but it requires a lot of experiments, such as using live animals, throwing wine bottles, etc., to train a person's hand feel.
These people in the Death Mercenaries have experienced many wars in Africa. Those who survived have basically killed people, so they not only have good hands, but also have stable hands. Like many Korean soldiers on the opposite side, they have never killed anyone at all, so
When killing people, they will appear very frightened, and may even be unable to hold the gun steady.
The originally evenly matched two sides eventually turned into a unilateral massacre. The Korean Fourth Army's nearly 50,000 troops were directly defeated by 20,000 Death Mercenaries. In addition to the thousands who died, there were more than 40,000 left.
People were directly taken prisoner.
Looking at these dejected prisoners, and then at the Death mercenaries standing behind him, Tang Feng clearly felt a qualitative difference. If it weren't for the help of the Death mercenaries, the 30,000 elites in the JN Military Region would probably
They are going to fight a very difficult battle, and it is unknown whether they will win or lose.
