Chapter 1103 - Attack or Defense

Street fighting swept not only the cities of Soviet Russia, but also some towns in southwestern France in advance.

The German army in France was also watching, but it gave up to many well-established defensive lines in China with German seals. The Allied forces in France did not care, believing that the 1.5 million Allied troops in the south of France would be enough to break any defensive line. Moreover, another 500,000 Spanish troops were pinning, harassing, and even counterattacking the Chinese army in Spain.

"I'm afraid they don't even have 500,000 troops, how can they stop us from flanking from front and rear?" The Allies were optimistic.

The Chinese army in France was fought from the North African Army all the way to Spain, although there were many elite veterans, but limited to the conditions of North Africa, the personnel were never very large, and there were still some troops stationed in North Africa. Fewer than 300,000 troops set foot in Spain.

The lack of troops also made it impossible for the Chinese army to garrison everywhere even if it had conquered some territory.

The original plan was to slowly encroach on the whole of Spain as the follow-up personnel followed. But Lao Xi's death happened too suddenly, so that the Chinese army decisively abandoned many Spanish targets, relying on the support of sea and air power, relying on only 100,000 troops to rush all the way to the southwest of France, and also relieved the siege of the trapped German army.

However, it has never been able to get rid of the weakness of a relatively small military force. Even after China blocked the Strait of Gibraltar and gained some maritime initiative in the Mediterranean, it quickly increased its troops by sea, but under the constant harassment of the British and American Mediterranean fleets, the total strength was limited in a short period of time, and it was necessary to take into account the two-front battle between Spain and southwestern France at the same time. In the end, no matter how you look at it, the allies can't see that the Chinese army has the ability to change its life against the sky.

The Chinese army in Africa was caught up by the 600,000 allied troops of Britain, the United States, France and other countries that attacked at the same time, and it was difficult to draw reinforcements; India's British and American fleets intensified their cruising blockade in the Indian Ocean, and it was difficult for China to take shape for a while.

After estimating that there were only 500,000 troops in China from various sources, even the French and Spaniards were particularly active, quickly gathering a total strength of 2 million Allied troops, and at the same time launching a fierce offensive in Spain and France.

Under the circumstance that the gap in total strength is too large, even if there are some advanced weapons in the Huaxia army, I am afraid that it will still not be able to change the overall situation.

But when the Allied forces, consisting of 550,000 American troops, 150,000 British Commonwealth troops, 700,000 French troops, and 100,000 other countries, were ready to appreciate the rout of the Chinese army. But he hit a big nail in front of Huaxia's defensive position.

The number of Chinese troops in Spain and France was really small. Although the actual manpower has reached 530,000, it is still difficult to directly confront the 2 million of the allies on a long front.

Although there are the Spaniards who are like soy sauce and the combat capability of the French is also debatable, Britain and the United States have made very careful arrangements for China, and the number of tanks and planes is several times that of China. And with the addition of a large number of French soldiers who were more familiar with the environment, the threat was even greater.

"Abandon the middle and stick to both ends!" The General Staff had long since made a strategic adjustment of Spain in this regard.

After quickly scraping a layer of territory in the occupied territory, the Spanish Chinese army abandoned most of the defenses and retreated to the regions of Zaragoba, Barceloan in the northeast and Malaga in the southwest.

In the Mediterranean, the Chinese Navy is gaining more and more superiority. The Chinese army no longer needed to transfer troops through the passage of North Africa and Gibraltar, or even the passage of Spain, and it was easier to ship troops directly by sea, as long as they held those ports, whether it was reinforcements or strategic materials, they could easily arrive.

Therefore, only 100,000 troops were needed to protect the strategic points and seaports of the West French border and the Strait of Gibraltar, and the other 400,000 troops. All were thrown into the defensive front in the southwest of France.

Facing a big war with more than two million troops. Those defensive fronts left by Germany were simply not enough to hold up, and time was rushed. The Chinese army, which has always advocated attack, will not spend all its energy on building a Maginot defense line to hold on. So the Chinese army took the initiative to include those towns in the southwest of France in the battlefield of street fighting, and after a little transformation, a personal meat grinding disc was formed. And the allies, who didn't care, also rushed in.

……

"They're horrible!" Hanks cowered behind the windowsill, thinking of the expressionless and indifferent faces of the Chinese soldiers who rushed directly at him with the flames of his guns, and the 20-round magazine of the new M4 automatic rifle in his hand was jammed several times.

Even if both Britain and the United States began to replace automatic rifles, the performance was not much worse than the Chinese TJ-38 and AK-47, but in close combat, courage is more important.

The American troops in Europe had been exposed to the tenacity of the German army, but they had little contact with the madness of the Japanese in the Pacific Theater, and the Chinese soldiers with indifferent faces who faced the more frantic and brave battles in front of them, whether they were Americans, British, or French, were frightened and softened by the momentum of not fearing death.

If it is said that in the field where the armored forces play the leading role, the bravery of the individual can be diluted by advanced weapons, but in the urban street fighting, the nervous hesitation and negligence of the fear of death can easily lead to fatal casualties.

No matter how familiar the French were with the terrain, the militias that had been hastily organized in order to get more victory cakes could not make reasonable and effective use of those terrain and environments, and even the well-trained British and American GIs were not fully adapted to the mode of street fighting. And in these aspects, every soldier in the Huaxia army who comes out of the recruit camp with a street fighting course can be a teacher for the allies, not to mention countless clones who have a deeper understanding of street combat skills.

Hanks' teammates only hesitated in an encounter on a street corner, and while looking for a place to hide, they were swept down by the Chinese clones who rushed up at the bullets.

In a panic, Hanks slammed open the door of a nearby house and hid in the room closest to the corner on the second floor, and the screams of his teammates who were haunting his ears were slightly muffled. But the blood, the corpses, and the indifferent expressions of those Chinese soldiers still hit his heart, making him slow down in the fear of death, and naturally he didn't notice that the blood-stained footprints under his feet attracted other guests.

"Who ......" Hanks, who noticed a black shadow flashing, just turned around, and didn't finish half a word of surprise, he fell down softly with his hands on his throat.

On his protruding eyeballs, there was still a picture of a German black back hiding from the blood spraying from his neck, and the slightly mocking eyes were clearly revealed.

Hanks died with doubts, and at the same moment, Shura of Kuibyshev, thousands of kilometers away, collapsed into the sewers with the same doubts, and a cloned dog stepped on his left cheek with a blood-stained front paw.

In the case that many of China's professional street combat equipment were not put into use in time, the cloned dogs, who were also further liberalized due to upgrades, resurrected the genes of Cerberus after being equipped with biochemical camouflage suits and sharp minion weapons, bringing death and nightmares to countless allies.

……

With the exception of the more lazy Spanish army, which easily reclaimed many towns at home, the Allies were trapped on the French front and had almost nothing to gain.

In the whole situation, it seems that the Chinese army is being pressed and beaten by the allies and is struggling to defend, but the attacking allies know their own suffering.

Huaxia did not use the armored corps that they had once rushed into France in one go, leaving the Allies and fighter and tank groups in a hurry in the face of countless towns.

Numerous towns continued to devour the Allied army, but they were slow to receive a consoling reward.

At first, the overwhelming reports of Allied invasions of many towns had become a joke, and many of the Allied high-ranking felt as if they had fallen into a trap, many places had been attacked, and they could never get out.

……

"It always feels weird!" Liao Yaoxiang shook his head.

Huaxia's tank corps did not make a large-scale sortie, but it was always preparing to deliver a fatal blow.

More and more advanced tanks are appearing in the tank troops, enhancing the power of the Chinese combat vehicles that used to gallop in North Africa.

Liao Yaoxiang was arranging intense familiarization training, and at the same time glanced at the familiar and unfamiliar environment around him from time to time, and let out some sighs.

Liao Yaoxiang, who once studied at the most famous military academy in France, Saint-Cyr, learned tank and armored combat in France, but now he wants to show all the French people the most advanced armored combat on French soil, and the opponent is still recognized as the most powerful Allied army, including a large number of French troops.

"Strong or not, you will know after you fight!" Liao Yaoxiang lamented the decline of the French army, a veteran powerhouse in the past, in World War II, and on the other hand, he also inspired ambition in half of the home field.

Even with more than 2,000 tanks and more than 7,000 of the Allied forces, Liao Yaoxiang was not afraid:

"When it's time to fight back, let everyone see how powerful our Huaxia chariot is!"

……

Unlike the strategy of defending and counterattacking on the French battlefield, and unlike the active offensive on all fronts of the Soviet and Russian fronts, the Chinese army in North America adopted a-for-tat node attack.

The vast territory of North American occupation is difficult to balance even if more than a million troops are scattered on a long defensive line. Faced with a salvo of more than three million Allied troops from Alaska to Canada to the continental border of the United States, the only way to do so was to focus on defense.

It's just that the defense here is not a passive defense, but an offensive instead of a defense, and from the very beginning, it has fought-for-tat with the main force of the United States. (To be continued.) )
