In the two days, a large number of ships and populations have poured in from the Port of Townsville on the east coast of Australia. This port, which was not originally large, brought a big test. The water diversion ships kept shuttled back and forth to lead the ships entering the port to avoid reefs and approach the port.

The originally quiet port suddenly became bustling, and the vehicles coming and going diverted a large amount of supplies from the port to places where they were needed. Since there are a large number of coral reefs along the coast of the East Coast of O Island, this has caused considerable trouble for sea boating, so many ports north of the East Coast are not very large.

But now, since the Port of Townsville is closest to Cronkri and Richmond, both the Australian Command and the US military will choose this place as the first port of mooring.

A large number of tents were temporarily built on an open space not far outside the port. Judging from the clothes hanging outside, these people were not Australian troops or British troops, but American troops who had just landed on Australia Island.

"Hey, man, please throw it over, thank you!" A rugby flying from a distance jumped and then fell to the feet of a soldier with the rank of sergeant, but the sergeant seemed to have no idea, looking into the southwest with his eyes, as if he wanted to see something through the distance of the space.

A hand with furry hair reached out from the side to pick up the football and threw it at the soldiers who were playing in the open space around the tent.

"What are you thinking about, George." After throwing the ball, the hairy hand patted the trance of George and called him back from his own world to the real world.

"Oh, nothing. Will."

"I remember you said you had an aunt who liked you very much when you were young and was very nice to you. She later moved to Australia. Was it far away?" Will took out a Marlboro cigarette from his pocket, skillfully lit it with a lighter, and spit out smoke and pulling homework.

"Yes, there is such an aunt who treats me well. But she is very busy now. She is in central Australia. My mother said that she and her husband moved from the United States in 33 years. It seems to be Ellis Springs. Because the transportation is inconvenient, there are not many communications, so it should be thousands of miles away. But after I got off the boat yesterday, I went to ask, and it was occupied by the damn Chinese." At this point, George's tone was obviously stagnant.

"George, it's just occupied. Maybe your aunt's family is fine. If the battle goes well, maybe you can take a look." Will realized that he had touched the old friend's sadness and hurriedly spoke to comfort him.

"Thanks."

"The above said when will we go?" After successfully comforting old fellow George, Will immediately changed the subject.

"There is no exact order yet, but when I went to the battalion last night, I asked the captain, and he said that he might be dispatched in two days. Now there are many yellow-skinned Chinese people in the west and north of Cronkri and Richmond. The Australians there urgently need us to go for reinforcements. Let your class adjust as soon as possible and be ready to set off at any time."

Walking out of his personal emotions, George soon returned to the original capable sergeant.

"No problem, all of my young men are over-energy guys. They can go out to kick the Chinese monkey's ass at any time." Will answered with a confident smile, his expression quite relaxed. It seemed that this war was really relaxed.

"I saw the tank regiment and artillery battalion people approaching the port this morning. I guess we will set off after they get the Sherman tanks and cannons off the ship."

"Well, I just want to go there now, kick every Chinese monkey hard on the butt and send them back to their hometown. After the battle, I returned to the bar with music, listened to the music, drank wine, smoked cigars and hugged the woman. This damn yellow-skinned monkey made me come here to suffer from the other side of the ocean."

Will spit the cigarette butt on the ground hard, staring at the two white women walking past in the distance.

"Similar. But Will, if you want to go, hurry up and relax tonight. You may be able to move out at any time tomorrow. I don't want any trouble at this time." George knew very well what his old friend was thinking now.

After wandering on the sea from the United States for so long, when I arrived at my destination, I temporarily canceled my original reinforcement mission because China suddenly landed on the island of Australia. After spending three days boring on the ship, I set off here again. Although the long-term bumps on the sea made me feel uncomfortable, what was even more uncomfortable was the guy in my crotch.

"Okay, thank you, I'll come back to bring you a bottle of wine." Will was happy as soon as he heard his old friend's words. Although George was not the commander who could issue a fake note to go out, if he was covering the barracks, he would have the opportunity to go out for fun. However, he could not forget his roots when he was happy outside. Will knew what George liked.

The situation of the American soldiers not only immediately reported to the Nanyang War Zone, but also appeared on the desks of various military chief officers of the National Strategic Defense Department. Although there was no sufficient detailed intelligence information, it can be seen from the satellite reconnaissance map that this group of US troops were not the ordinary-equipped troops that were originally fighting against Japan.

In their hands, they were no longer bolt-action single-shot rifles at the beginning of the war against Japan, but replaced with eight-shot Galand rifles, and were equipped with Thomson-style submachine guns and bar light machine guns.

We should not underestimate the heavy firepower. There are many equipment for all types of artillery and battlefield front-line support mortars. Wang Junfeng's opponent is not as easy as the Australian light infantry.

Through the analysis of the data collected from high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft and reconnaissance satellites, the US military has indeed strengthened its maritime patrol force in this area, not only the number of ships but also the patrol area, but also the level and strength have been significantly improved.

At the same time, a large number of hoards of materials and troops appeared on several bridgehead islands occupied by the US military. These troops and materials showed no sign of diversion to the islands occupied by the Japanese army, and seemed to be waiting for something.

Judging from the US military base in the further Pacific, a large fleet of more than 300 ships of various types have just left Hawaii. Although the destination of this fleet is still unconfirmed, the signs appearing in the Philippines indicate that the US military will land on an island in the Philippines to open up a new battlefield.

The emergence of this situation made Cheng Wenli, the commander of the Nanyang War Zone, frowned. Although he had imagined the consequences of the US military seeking breakthroughs in Southeast Asia, at present, the Nanyang War Zone still lacks some strength to compete with the US Pacific Fleet.

At the same time, according to the information, what is worse is that the British and French naval joint fleet also set out from the Mediterranean. Being attacked on both ends is a taboo for military strategists, not to mention the weakest navy among the three Chinese armies.

After discussion and discussion by the Military Region General Staff, the expeditionary army needed to take was actually very simple, which was about the passive dilemma of being able to defend the navy at present.

Because the strength of the US naval force is too huge, fleets from the Pacific Ocean can not only attack Southeast Asia, but also attack Taiwan, and even break through from both sides of Taiwan and attack any point on the vast coastline on China's east coast. This is the most terrifying method of maritime combat.

In order to avoid this situation, China currently has to configure a large number of shore-based aircraft on the East Coastline and reserve a certain number of anti-ship missiles and ship fleets.

But although doing this can ensure a certain degree of safety, the spread shop is too large. If we just concentrate these spreading anti-ship missiles and then paired with a certain number of attack aircraft, a fleet of the United States will not be enough for them to eat!

This helpless global dispersed defense is the best manifestation of the current Chinese Navy's lack of defense but its attack power. To change this situation is nothing more than the cliché naval expansion.

However, there are not many reasons that restrict the expansion of the navy, but they are problems that are difficult to solve in a short while.

For example, steel production, annual shipbuilding total tonnage, and the training of quality and technological naval personnel, these three alone are enough to involve a country's overall industrial strength and early visionary basic cultural education. These things will not be improved within a day or two.

However, there is really good news about the expansion of the navy, that is, after so many years of accumulation of momentum, whether it is the country's overall industrial strength or the many large and small shipyards that sprouted along the coast of the country.

The education system that has been continuously popularized since 1925 has enabled many people to receive at least primary school education. Many of them have received junior and high school education, and even many have college education or junior college education.

These three conditions that seriously restrict the expansion of the navy have gradually weakened. At the same time, the expansion of the army has basically ended, and more manpower, material resources and financial resources will be tilted towards the expansion of the air force and the expansion of the navy.

At present, various shipyards in China have begun to make full efforts to produce and manufacture various ship segmented hulls. After more than a year of construction, multiple large docks have been completed and delivered and put into use. I believe that in one or eight months, the strength of the Chinese Navy will become a period of rapid development that will increase significantly, which has given Xu Jiangwen a strong boost.

The confidential nuclear submarine production research base selected on Hainan Island is under the joint efforts of more than 20,000 engineers and advanced researchers. The first phase of the foundation project will be delivered and used in two months, which is more than a month earlier than the expected time.

But these beautiful futures will be something that will only be realized in a year or two. China still needs to face the aggressive and powerful US Navy and the British and French coalition fleet that is about to come to add fuel to the fire.

For this reason, the Chinese Navy does not have much strength to influence its implementation in response to the changes in the US military on the east coast of the Philippines. However, it still has the strength to cause some trouble for them, preventing the United States from living comfortably here, and also strategically delaying the decisive battle.

Xu Jiangwen's intention was to increase the frequency of the submarine force's attack and send a small fleet to break into the sea areas where both sides were currently tempted, and boldly carry out maritime guerrilla warfare that bullies the weak and fears the strong. When he met someone weaker than me, he would beat him hard, and when he met a fleet that was stronger than me, he would turn around and run away without saying a word.

MacArthur is an officer with a serious and arrogant plot. He cannot tolerate his failure, especially his opponent he looks down upon. In his current impression, China is exactly such an opponent.

Because in the eyes of MacArthur, the future five-star general, there is no opponent in the yellow-skinned race that can make him look at. It is precisely because of this. When the Japanese devils drove him into the sea with crazy bayonets and suicide attacks from the suicide squad, he left the famous saying with an angry attitude - I will come back!

"Report! Latest situation report: The US infantry division has passed through the Huernden area, but there is no sign of garrison and is continuing to move westward!" A correspondent held a folder and briefly described the focus of the new intelligence.

"It's finally here!" Xiong Puliang threw down the two-color pencil in his hand and grabbed the folder in surprise.

"Commander, do you think they will be the main offensive or defense?" The commander mentioned by the Chief of Staff refers to Wang Junfeng, the young commander of the Australian Military Region, rather than the commander of the entire Nanyang War Zone that includes the Australian Military Region.

"Whether it is offense or defense, it is the main body of this battle. It is better to eat 60,000 Australian troops than to eat 8,000 US troops. Our army is in an advantage, and the initiative is on our side whether it is offense or defense!" Wang Junfeng's heroic spirit boosted the morale in the command center, which made people feel comfortable.

Two days later, when the US infantry division entered the Australian military position, it was disappointing that the US military did not seem to have made plans for the next step. The station was still on the spot!

Moreover, the US military chose a very clever position. There are two Australian military divisions on the left, and although there is only one Australian armored division on the right, there are three Australian military divisions at a distance of fifty kilometers from the rear of the right.

Behind it are two artillery divisions and an armored division of the Australian Army. It can be said that the US military not only stuck itself in a position with heavy fire support, but even ahead of them, there are two Australian infantry regiments standing in front of it, holding a line of defense to make their own buffer zone.

"It's a bit of that, and it drove out the troops of an armored division of the Australian Army, which was originally stationed in this area, making the people of the armored division complain. This American soldier was a bit too domineering! He came to help the war, but he snatched the master's territory and commanded the troops..."

Looking at the latest frontline briefing, seeing that the US military actually used such a tortoise tactic, the military district staff nodded and chuckled.

"I think this is a sign that the Americans' hegemony consciousness began to rise. Moreover, the Australians have always been following the British man's butt. Now the Great British Empire has declined, and even their own colonies have begun to be unable to control themselves and begin to appear. Although they still verbally say that this is the progress and embodiment of civilization and democracy, there will definitely be a deep sorrow of decline and backwardness in the hearts of the British!"

"Commander, the Americans are now retracting into the turtle shell. How can we clean up them?"

"Turtle shell? If you keep it for a long time, you will lose it. What are we anxious about?" Wang Junfeng held his hands on the edge of the sand table. He stared at the terrain of both sides on the sand table. His troops were distributed and his strength was distributed. He said confidently:

"I guess the Americans came up to seek stability. He decided that we must attack deeply, so he set up this formation to use the position attrition war to consume our strength. We are three divisions of the Marine Corps! There are two divisions of the Second Army! There are five divisions of the main attack force alone!"

"This has not included the second-line troops of four divisions. The Americans would not be so stupid to go deeper. When both sides do not understand each other, the defense side is obviously more advantageous than the attacking side."

After taking the telescopic instructions handed over by the staff next to him, Wang Junfeng pointed at the branches of the troops on the sand table with his whip head and continued:

"The current situation is that the Americans have retracted into the key traffic rush that we must open up. Although the place is not very suitable for the defense, it is located in a must-pass place for railways and highways. There is another line of defense in the Australian army behind them. They can make full use of their mobility to advance and attack and retreat and defend. If we cannot fight well, it is very likely to be a defeat war instead of the originally scheduled annihilation war!"

"And you have also seen that the opponent's troops are not much worse than ours. Not only are there two artillery divisions behind the US military, but there is even an armored division. There is an armored division on the right. The only weak point is the left side, with only two infantry divisions defending. But on the left side of these two infantry divisions, there is the Australian Armored Division squeezed out by the US military. Although the distance is slightly far away, it is not included in the defense force in the region, but it is an armored division, a mechanized mobile unit."

"So our fighting idea is to first fight these weak Australian troops, and test the US troops in the process of eliminating these Australian troops, test their reactions. If they extend their response, we will cut off their contact with the Australian troops and focus on annihilation of them."

"But I guess the other party won't do this, because no matter if we annihilate the surrounding Australian troops, as long as the US infantry division is still stuck here, we still need to open up this railway and highway transportation hub."

"So we must give the other party an illusion when annihilation of the peripheral Australian troops, that is, we cannot make them feel our determination to annihilate their troops too early, and we must stabilize them and not allow them to retreat too early. This brings a great test to us, and we currently have not many air force troops. It is no simple matter to solve the opponent's artillery and armored divisions."

Strategically despise the enemy, but tactically, the enemy must be valued. Wang Junfeng has received strict quality education for senior officers, a solid cultural foundation and flexible cognitive ability, and is rigorous by nature, so of course he will not make such a mistake in military decision-making mentality.

The regular American troops are not small minions. In the original space and time, the war losses of the US military during World War II were very amazing. Although the materials were consumed a little more, it was enough to prove their strength, which was incomparable to Japanese and others.

As the commander of the Australian military region, Wang Junfeng is the first senior general in China to face the large-scale ground forces of the US military. In addition to saying something to boost morale, he also must formulate a detailed strategic deployment plan to welcome the powerful US military!
