Chapter 1824: Running late at night

When Salt Lake City was calm, it was already early in the morning. When the war began, it was nearly 3:30 in the morning, but when it ended, it was only 5:00 in the morning. One and a half hours, the entire Salt Lake City was attacked. The speed was indeed very fast. Of course, it has to do with the fact that the defenders were not strong. The defenders of Salt Lake City were only the National Guard, with only more than 700 people in total, and the remaining 3,000 people were left. Speaking of which, they were militias, but most of them had not received professional military training. At most, they were armed peasants. Compared with the Japanese armored forces armed to the teeth, they were not a little worse.

If you can choose, Kawasaki Mikazu would not choose to use tanks to attack the city. It is not the right choice. For tanks, sufficient vision and distance are the key to protecting the tank. When entering the city, there are many covers and covers. Maybe a pack of explosives may be thrown out from a window next to it.

Even in later generations, the main battle tank faces a mob that can be attached to the tank and burn wildly. There is no good way. The explosive pack is the same. If the explosion of explosives exceeds 10 kilograms, it can cause huge damage to the tank. The protection of the tank comes from armor, but the armor is made of steel, not shields. No matter how strong it is, it has a limit. In a small range, the explosion of a large amount of explosives produces enough to cause deformation of steel.

When tanks enter street fighting, sacrifice is inevitable, and it is also an extremely dangerous thing in later generations. During the Second Gulf War, there were examples of American main battle tanks being destroyed in street fighting. That is, the United States has an absolute advantage in sea and land, and even its personnel have an absolute advantage. In the picture and news, the US main battle tanks that burned one by one and became ruins, all revealing the cruelty of street fighting.

In this era, tanks were just emerging. They did not even have a complete method of dealing with tanks, let alone a combination of street fighting and city stations. Even if there is, it is not something that Salt Lake City, a small city in the middle, can be possessed by Salt Lake City. This is a very inconspicuous small city in the middle. Even if it is 100 years later, it cannot be considered a big city. It does not even have a regular army, let alone counterattacking against tanks.

Salt Lake City and Ogden are just an exception, just an exception that demonstrates their strength. After the Cherry Blossom Plan, they will rarely attack cities, and at most they will only destroy railway hubs. If necessary, the destruction that enters the city is mainly fast in and out.

In this way, the harm may be much smaller, but it is very important to protecting strength. As long as the legendary scenery can complete the damage to the railway from Salt Lake City to the Rocky Mountains within a few days, it will have a strategic depth of 500 kilometers. At that time, the role that the tank legion can play will be increased to the highest level when it is known to you and your opponent.

The Battle of Salt Lake City came to an end and ended with a great victory in Japan. There was almost no loss from Ogden to Salt Lake City, but it was the ultimate limit. With the camp rest, the side of Salt Lake City was calm, but the huge sensation caused by the Battle of Salt Lake City began to spread that night, even when daylight came, shocking the entire United States.

This night was also a sleepless night for many Americans. Between Ogden and Salt Lake City, the abandoned US troops started to take action more than half an hour after the Japanese armored forces completely left, inspected the injured and abandoned some of the seriously injured soldiers. There was no way. For them, without doctors and nurses, it was impossible to rescue these US troops. Instead of taking them with them to march with difficulty, it would be better to give up on them and act lightly.

After walking a kilometer or two, the escape teams once again divided. This time, it was some minor wounded people with limited mobility, and they also delayed their speed of movement. However, for the serious wounded people who could not be treated and rescued, they gave up, and the minor wounded people would not be able to do it. They were just temporarily unable to move. After bandaging and the wound stopped bleeding, their lives were saved. For these people, after discussion, several volunteers were sent to help, and the remaining ones, including most of the officers, began to go east. They must report the news that the Japanese entered the United States as soon as possible. They knew very well that as long as the Japanese did not get off the car, they would still stay on the tank. Even if Salt Lake City fought against them, they could not find that they were Japanese. Such judgments would lose objectivity and might cause huge losses.

Japan has taken action against the United States. Although it is not known how Japan enters the hinterland of the United States, there is only one explanation for Japan. Rebels, bandits, and regular troops are completely different concepts. If the United States Joint Conference makes a wrong judgment and only sends a small part of the army to suppress it, wouldn’t it be attacked by armored forces?

The battalion commander held this idea and rushed all the way. About halfway through, a subordinate next to him exclaimed loudly. When they left the railway line about 7 kilometers, in Salt Lake City, not only did the dense sound of bullets sound, but the fire also started to burn.

They were only more than 30 kilometers away from Salt Lake City in the quiet night sky. The sound of heavy machine guns was particularly clear, not to mention the flames. The raging fire in the night could be spread far away. It is unnecessary to confirm that these people knew very well that Salt Lake City was attacked. Under the attack of an armored force, Salt Lake City must be in danger. While they were sad, they strengthened their beliefs. Ogden and Salt Lake City were just beginning, and they did not spread the news as much as possible, so that the alliance could clear this armed force. Maybe, there would be more trouble in the future.

This group of people rushed to the road, and actually walked 40 kilometers in about 4 o'clock to 9 o'clock in the morning. Within 5 hours, they walked about 8 kilometers per hour on average. Finally, the news that the Japanese were the mastermind behind the scenes was passed on to the US military.

In the dark night, there was not just such a wave of rushing on the way. On the other hand, another group of people who ran out of Salt Lake City, Henry and Mark, one of them was the head of government and the other was the head of the military. They were also divided into two parts. Henry continued to go south and prepared to go to California. In his opinion, such a huge armored force, the whole United States might not be able to resist. If we really want to say that only California, the most powerful state in the West, is possible. Not only is there a magnificent Rockies, but also a large number of troops. Henry's family, there is still a certain amount of power there. Going there is a good choice. There are many people following Henry, most of whom are senior government officials and big families. For Americans, walking like this is nothing. At most, it can only be called a transformation and has nothing to do with fleeing without fighting.

As for Mark, as the commander of the National Guard, he went east. Although it was very dangerous to go east, this force entered Salt Lake City. Starting from Ogden and to Salt Lake City, the goal was very clear. Next, he had two choices, one to the east and the other to the west. As long as it was east, he could not escape, and he could only run west. But he was willing to gamble. The power of the east is stronger than that of the west, and it was much stronger. If this person was still rational, he would definitely go west, not east.

Of course, Henry and Mark had such a doubt in their hearts, what exactly are these people and why they attacked the hinterland of the United States. What is more like the war begins, and they don’t know who the opponent is. It’s so sad, but tanks are like this. These tanks have great similarities with the tanks of the US military in terms of appearance and combat methods. But, there are no signs on these tanks, and it is impossible to tell whether they are from the United States or from other countries. As for bandits, even the commander of the National Guard, it is difficult for him to get the tanks. He personally operates the tanks in his spare time, not to mention bandits, in the American underworld and the 3KK party, but bandits, established and powerful bandits, really don’t have them.

By chance, Mark thought that this would be caused by the Japanese. Even he didn't believe it. The United States sent tanks to attack Japan and had to take the Pacific Railway and transport the tanks to Vancouver before it could continue. From Vancouver to Juno, it was only more than a thousand kilometers. It was a difficult task for the tank commander. It was still in his own territory. Although Canada is not the United States, it was an ally and a close friend to deal with the Japanese. But what about Japan? From Alaska to Salt Lake City, the United States, it was almost more than 5,000 kilometers. This was insurmountable for tanks, and countless problems needed to be solved urgently.

This is also a deadlock. Not only has it bothered Henry and Mark now, it has also troubled countless American executives. Even more and more reports have shown that they are Japanese. These American executives are still wondering what method Japan uses to enter the hinterland of the United States. Those who don’t know about tanks may slap their foreheads and treat Japan as their opponents. But the more they understand tanks, the more they feel incredible. A journey of 1,000 kilometers will reduce tanks by more than one-third. This is still under the premise of a huge logistics team. The United States unimaginable that when they fight abroad, they will get the tanks 5,000 kilometers away without supplies, maintenance personnel, and even at any time, they may even be attacked. Is this obviously an impossible task?
