Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

When the Qinling Mountains and Gaoshan plotted against the Americans, the Americans and government troops were also taking action.

The occupation of Victoria did not mean the end of the war, nor did it even mean the victory of the U.S. Marine Corps and the Brazilian government forces. The Michigan Army took the initiative to withdraw from Victoria. This fact was like a thorn deep in George Marshall's heart.

In his heart, he was very unwilling to accept this fact.

"The Southern African troops performed outstandingly in the world war. We have never fought against such a powerful opponent. This is a rare opportunity. Through this war, we will break the myth that the Southern African troops are invincible. Brazil is destined to become

The myth of southern Africa is shattered." George Marshall was confident that with the cooperation of the Brazilian military government, the United States was fighting at home in Brazil, with the right time, place and people, and there was no reason why it could not defeat the southern Africans.

You may not believe it, but since southern Africa became a British Dominion, so far, all the wars that the southern African army has participated in have never failed.

This includes hundreds of battles, large and small, during the world wars. The southern African army rarely suffered defeats. The few strategic retreats were also hindered by friendly forces and had to retreat in order to avoid being surrounded.

Compared with southern Africa, the U.S. military is actually not bad. At least the United States is also the victor in the world war.

However, the price for the "victorious nation" of the United States is a bit too heavy. Fortress Liege in Belgium is an eternal pain in the hearts of Americans. During the World War, George Marshall was Pershing's adjutant. He is very clear about the price paid by the US military to capture Fortress Liege.

.

Therefore, defeating the southern African army became George Marshall's biggest obsession. The southern African army was a hurdle that the US military must overcome.

"Southern Africans are continuing to increase their troops. We have just received news that the Salisbury Rifles stationed in Katanga in southern Africa have left the camp and are missing. Contact the regiment that arrived at Kitchina Port a few days ago.

The Southern African Union force, we have reason to believe that that force is probably the Salisbury Rifles." Colonel Harrison was in a bad mood, and his performance in the previous stage of the battle was not good.

The arrival of George Marshall took away most of the power from Colonel Harrison, which made Colonel Harrison very dissatisfied.

But Colonel Harrison had nothing to say.

When George Marshall did not come, the Victoria Army remained unmoved in the frenzied attacks of the U.S. Marine Corps and government troops. The Marines and government forces suffered heavy casualties but were unable to defeat the Victoria Army. This also led Washington to attack Harry.

Colonel Mori was very dissatisfied.

The Michigan Army, which had been holding on to Victoria for several months, took the initiative to withdraw after George Marshall took office.

This is probably God's will.

"We are fighting the Southern African Defense Force!" George Marshall was ambitious. In the previous stage of the battle, the United States sent the Marine Corps, but the Southern African federal government sent alliance troops and mercenaries from the Umbrella Company. This

Who are you looking down on!

To the U.S. government and U.S. military forces, Southern Africa's behavior is an insult.

However, the Marine Corps failed to live up to its expectations. It could not even defeat the alliance troops composed of African-American soldiers and the war hyenas of the Umbrella Company. Who can blame this——

It can only be said that God has not been on the side of the United States before.

"The main force of the Mizhou Army is concentrated on the Rio front line, and Victoria's defense is empty. This is our opportunity. As long as we can send a force to directly attack Belo Horizonte, the Mizhou Army on the Rio front line will have to return to defense.

, we can gain the initiative on the battlefield." Barreto's idea is good, but unfortunately there are too many unexpected factors.

In the previous stage of the battle, the U.S. Marine Corps and government forces, with the cooperation of the U.S. Navy and the Brazilian Navy, had absolute firepower advantages and were unable to capture Victoria.

To leave Victoria and attack the hinterland of Mizhou now requires not only courage, but also strong combat power.

Of course, Barreto also had his own reasons. For Barreto, it was not Barreto's fault that the offensive could not be held for a long time, but because Kitchener kept providing support to the Victoria Army, and the protective umbrella and Iron Square were still there.

Restrictions on the offensive of the government forces have resulted in the Brazilian Navy being unable to use battleship main guns to coordinate the offensive of ground forces. This is the real reason why the offensive cannot be conquered for a long time.

"We lack intelligence on the Mizhou Army. If we take the initiative to attack, it will bring more variables. Occupying Victoria and trapping the Mizhou Army to death is a more favorable option." Colonel Harrison did not agree to take the initiative to attack. In the previous stage of the battle,

The US military and Brazilian government forces are greatly restricted, and the mercenaries of the Umbrella Company are also affected by many adverse factors.

The biggest impact is that the mercenaries of the Umbrella Company have to stick to Victoria, thus giving up the mobile warfare that the mercenaries are best at.

At least at that time, the US military and government forces knew that the Mizhou Army was in Victoria.

Now that the Mizhou Army has voluntarily abandoned Victoria and cannot even find anyone, how can they fight?

"It takes time to trap the Mizhou Army, and what we need most now is time. Rio has already arrived, and we must defeat the Mizhou Army as soon as possible." Barreto knows how dangerous the situation facing the military government is. As time goes by, the military

The government has received less and less support. Several states that initially supported the military government have now changed their attitudes.

When the war broke out, there was a huge gap in strength between the Mizhou state capital and the military government. Simply looking at paper data, the military government had the absolute power to end the war in a short period of time. No one expected that the war would reach this level.

At present, it seems that even with the support of the US government, the military government is still in decline.

This casts doubt on states that support the military government.

If Michigan wins the final victory, Vargas will definitely settle the score later.

Therefore, Barreto hopes to defeat Mizhou in the shortest time. Otherwise, the longer the delay, the more detrimental it will be to the military government.

"Don't worry about the defense of Rio. From now on, the main battlefield has been transferred from the Rio front line to the Victoria front line." George Marshall was not distracted. There were US Marines in Rio de Janeiro to assist in the defense, unless Vargas was determined to burn the boat.

, otherwise the Mizhou Army would not take the initiative to launch an attack on Rio.

At this time, George Marshall did not know that the Michigan Army had completed its purge.

"I will mobilize more troops to participate in the attack. Victory or failure depends on this!" Barreto put all his chips on the table.

Harrison could only look up to the sky and sigh. It seemed that the Michigan Army had not taught George Marshall and Barreto enough lessons in Victoria.

To launch an attack into the hinterland of Mizhou, a lot of preparations need to be made, the most important of which is to ensure smooth logistics channels.

Thanks to the large-scale construction projects carried out by the Iron Four Corners Company in the past few years, the transportation between Victoria and Belo Horizonte is relatively smooth. There are not only water connections, but also railways. The purpose of this US military unit leaving the camp is to ensure the railway's

Complete and not destroyed by the Mizhou Army.

This is actually an overthinking. The railway between Victoria and Belo Horizonte was built by Iron Four Corners Company and is the property of Iron Four Corners Company. Iron Four Corners will not take the initiative to destroy its own property.

The situation in Brazil is similar to that in southern Africa and the United States. In order to promote infrastructure construction in Brazil, when the Iron Four Corners Company built the railway, the Brazilian government directly gave all the land within 20 kilometers on both sides of the railway to the Iron Four Corners Company.

There is no time limit for "sending".

In other words, the current railway between Victoria and Belo Horizonte, as well as the land on both sides of the railway, are the private property of Iron Four Corners.

Brazil also believes in the "sacred and inviolable nature of private property," so strictly speaking, even if the Brazilian military government wants to expropriate railways, it will still need the cooperation of the Iron Four.

If the Iron Sijiao Company does not agree, let alone requisitioning the railway, government troops will not even be able to enter the station.

But private property is sacred and inviolable——

The effect of this sentence is haha——

"What's going on at this station? Where's the train?" Second Lieutenant Lynch Brooke was dumbfounded as he looked at the empty platform at Victoria Railway Station.

Before leading the troops to set off, Second Lieutenant Lynch Brooke never expected that there was not even a locomotive or even a car in the station, let alone an armored train.

All the staff must have fled. The war has been going on for several months. If we don't run away, why should we stay and wait for death?

"The station is the property of the Iron Four Corners Company. When the war first broke out, the Iron Four Corners Company moved all the trains away. Now all the trains should be in Belo Horizonte -" Costa from Rio

The captain is not surprised. What do Americans say? Sometimes they are so naive that it is almost ridiculous.

"How far is it from the next station?" Lynch did not give up, and the order must be carried out.

"About fifty kilometers -" Captain Costa was given the task of cooperating with the troops led by Second Lieutenant Lynch to control the railway between Victoria and Belo Horizonte.

However, the troops led by Captain Costa only had one battalion, and the troops led by Second Lieutenant Lynch were less than one company. With such a small number of troops, it was a bit difficult to control the railway between Victoria and Belo Horizonte.

"Fifty kilometers! Okay, let's set off -" Lynch could only lament that the land area is actually too big, which is not good.

But this is normal. Brazil's land area is about the same as that of the United States, but its population is only 35 million. It is wider and sparsely populated than the United States. It is normal for Brazil to have one station for fifty kilometers.

Then set off. The troops searched the entire station and only found a work vehicle in an abandoned warehouse that was used by staff to inspect the railway. Looking at the rusty work vehicle, Lynch doubted whether the vehicle could still be used.

.

It works, but this kind of work vehicle is not driven by power, but by human power. There is something like a seesaw on the vehicle. Two people can press it back and forth, and the vehicle can move forward at a speed of about ten kilometers per hour.

Ten kilometers, it's not as fast as riding a bicycle.
