Chapter 194

In the plot.

The sudden collapse of the puppet army in the south made the Blue Star players quite excited.

However, there was also some worry that the American Allied forces opposite, after knowing that the 【Republic】 had entered the war, would continue to increase the intensity of their attacks.

Blue Star players were truly terrified of this kind of firepower-coverage strike.

But looking at the situation on the front line, the American Freedom Federation didn't seem to take the collapse of the southern puppet army seriously, seemingly thinking it was just the enemy's deathbed struggle.

It was all because the combat effectiveness of those southern puppet troops was too weak that it ended up like this.

This was good news for the Blue Star players.

The few remaining players guarded the position, waiting for the 【Republic】's support.

And at this time.

With the 【Republic】's entry into the war, random starts including the 【Republic】 and the American Federation and the United Nations, and various national troops were also opened in the plot.

Simply put.

A normal start is still on the neighbor's side, but it might be randomized to either the 【Republic】 or the American Federation and the United Nations. This can be considered an old tradition of Jixing Company.

Blue Star players restarted after death and actually randomized into quite a few perspectives.

There were British Federation teams, Turkish brigades, Australians, etc...

However, the most frequent starts were those of the American Freedom Federation and the southern puppet army.

At this moment.

Tian Sha streaming platform.

Inside streamer Peng Feng's stream, he was introducing the various equipment of the American Federation troops he was with.

Since it was a first-person perspective starting with the American Federation troops, this caused many Blue Star players to flood into his stream to check the American Federation troops' equipment at close range.

In the footage.

Streamer Peng Feng's gaze looked at the flag fluttering in the camp, and he said to the new Blue Star friends in the stream:

"Did everyone see this flag?"

"This is the flag of the American Federation's 1st Cavalry Division."

"I asked around."

"This unit was reorganized from the American Federation's 2nd Cavalry Regiment from the founding era; it can be said to be the American Federation's elite ace, and one with historical honors at that."

"Participated in WWII."

"Obtained the title of 'Liberator of Manila' in the Philippine campaign and was the first army unit to enter Tokyo on the Pacific battlefield."

Listening to Peng Feng's explanation, many Blue Star friends in the stream also asked streamers of various WWII streams to check the data on the American 1st Cavalry Division.

Because there were all kinds of identities, like merchants, reporters, etc.

Soon, a detailed piece of intelligence was organized.

Seeing the gradually detailed intelligence, Blue Star players realized that Peng Feng's introduction was still lacking.

Because the current American Federation 1st Cavalry Division is the most elite highly mechanized armored unit within the American Federation, with equipment and firepower far exceeding ordinary infantry divisions.

Even at the squad and platoon level, they are equipped with M1 rifles, machine guns, and heavy weapons like mortars.

One can imagine the firepower of the entire division.

Someone in the stream posted the detailed data, and many bullet comments sent question marks one after another:

【????】

【Damn? A squad is equipped with mortars? This configuration is too outrageous, right?】

【This must be the ceiling of American-style troops, can this even be fought?】

【What happened to the cavalry division? What kind of devil setting is mechanized armor?】

【To be reasonable, the configuration of this one squad is more luxurious than a regiment on the neighbor's side...】

The confused bullet comments in the stream floated past one after another.

And Peng Feng, on the other hand, wandered around the camp, introducing the equipment of the corps he was with:

"Did you see that over there?"

In the distance.

A large number of M24 "Chaffee" light tanks were lined up there, emitting a cold, chilling light in the sun; Peng Feng said:

"Those are the tanks of the tank battalion."

"Beside them are the M3 half-track armored personnel carriers of the armored battalion."

"They are all used for rapid breakthrough and fire support."

Then Peng Feng walked while looking left and right, suddenly caught sight of the artillery battalion's equipment, walked over, looked at those artillery pieces, and introduced them:

"This is the M2 107mm mortar (range 4km), right."

"Equipped at the battalion level."

"Why do I say it's equipped at the battalion level?"

"Because it is said that the division-level units are equipped with M101 105mm howitzers (range 11km) and M114 155mm howitzers (range 14km)."

"Capable of comprehensive firepower coverage on enemy positions."

Not far away, there were also several helicopters; Peng Feng introduced:

"There are also some helicopters over there, but they are said to be used for transporting wounded soldiers and have not yet formed combat effectiveness."

"It might have to do with the limitations of the era."

Peng Feng wandered around the camp, introducing the current equipment of the American 1st Cavalry Division.

It made the Blue Star players feel a bit dazed.

Is this equipment too outrageous?

However, it wasn't just these that were outrageous.

After introducing the armored equipment, Peng Feng also walked back to the vicinity of the camp tents, where many soldiers were wiping their equipment or chatting in piles.

Peng Feng's gaze swept over that equipment and said:

"These are the average configurations for the infantry of the American 1st Cavalry Division."

"That is the M20 88.9mm 'Super Bazooka' rocket launcher, mainly used for armor-piercing."

"Soldiers are generally equipped with M1 'Garand' semi-automatic rifles."

"There are also M3 'Grease Gun' submachine guns used for close combat and urban warfare."

"The equipment is roughly these; brothers, is there anything else you want to know?"

Bullet comments flooded the stream:

【Roughly these? Do you want to listen to what you're saying? Holy crap?!】

【Can this equipment push across a small country?】

【M24 Chaffee tank battalion? This is a sea of light tanks!】

【This configuration should be called 'Steel Torrent Division'.】

【M1 Garand + Super Bazooka, the infantry firepower is also this heaven-defying?!】

【To be reasonable, can this be blamed for us losing so fast?】

【Indeed... no matter who it is, they can't beat it; rifles against tanks?】

The equipment of the American 1st Cavalry Division had refreshed the cognition of Blue Star players.

Even the peak units of the empire during WWII didn't have such a luxurious configuration.

A division possesses.

Tanks, armored vehicles, helicopters, howitzers, super bazookas, soldiers generally equipped with submachine guns, etc... this configuration, thrown anywhere on "Earth," would be an absolute crushing force.

Just looking at the configuration made Blue Star players feel a sense of despair.

Because the current situation of the 【Republic】, although much better than the neighbor's, is still mainly rifles; as for tanks, armored vehicles, etc., there are none at all.

Equivalent to flesh and blood against highly mechanized armored units.

How can this be fought?

Blue Star players couldn't think of it, couldn't think of it at all.

However, seeing the American 1st Cavalry Division looking so leisurely, some Blue Star players were puzzled; hasn't the 【Republic】 already entered the war? Does the American Federation have no reaction?

Looking at this bullet comment, Peng Feng looked around and then said:

"How should I put it... it's not that there's no reaction."

"It's that the American Federation doesn't believe the 【Republic】 has entered the war."

"The previously collapsed southern puppet army said they reported it to the higher-ups."

"But the high command of the American Federation unanimously believes that the 【Republic】 cannot enter the war."

"Because everyone knows the origin of this war."

"Behind it is the Soviet Federation making trouble; with the American Federation's intelligence capability, it's impossible not to know, plus this place is also half American Federation and half Soviet."

"So currently, the high command of the American Federation still thinks it's the same as in Europe."

"It's them and the Soviet Federation fighting a proxy war."

"In their proxy war with the Soviet Union, it's not the 【Republic】's turn to enter the war."

"This is the viciousness of the Soviet side's methods."

"The American Federation has been dragged into the water, all thinking they are going to fight the Soviet Union."

"Although the 【Republic】 knows the Soviet Union's calculations, how can others be allowed to snore beside one's bed? They must fight."

"One fighting in confusion, one fighting with clarity."

"And the Soviet Union stays out of it, taking advantage of the American Federation and the 【Republic】 fighting each other to free up their hands to deal with things in Europe."

This move by the Soviet Union is simply too ruthless.

No matter how many times they look at the analysis, Blue Star players can always discover new things.

Just like now.

It turns out the American Federation side has been fighting for more than a month.

And still thinks they are going to fight a proxy war with the Soviet Federation, completely unaware that the Soviet Union made trouble and then walked away, dragging the 【Republic】 into the water.

I also don't know what the reaction will be when the American Federation's high command realizes they've been played by the Soviet Union.

But thinking about it, it makes sense.

The various calculations involved, even if they stand from a third-party perspective, are only half-understood, let alone the American Federation, which is in the middle of it.

It's reasonable that they still don't know now.

On the other side.

Not only were the American Federation troops curious to the Blue Star players, but the troops of other allied nations also made the Blue Star players curious.

Among them, many troops had not been seen by Blue Star players during WWII before; now, seeing the various national troops suddenly popping up, they also wanted to see what was powerful about each country's troops.

Here at the British Federation 27th Brigade, not far from the American 1st Cavalry Division.

A Blue Star streamer started at the Australian battalion here; this unit, which had never been seen before, also attracted the curiosity of many Blue Star players.

Inside Zhou Hao's stream.

After chatting with the surrounding NPC soldiers for a while, Zhou Hao walked to a corner, looked at the leisurely soldiers around, and introduced to the Blue Star friends in the stream:

"Brothers, I've asked around."

"The full name of this unit is '3rd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment'."

"Currently, it is the secret weapon of the British Federation 27th Brigade, known as the 'King of Bayonet Fighting'."

"It is said that before, facing the troops on the neighbor's side, one charge."

"In a bayonet fight, they killed more than 200 people and captured more than 200 people; the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment only had 7 people injured,"

"With no casualties."

"I have to say."

"This battle record feels a bit outrageous, right?"

"But these Australian battalion soldiers are big and tall, and the admiring eyes of the soldiers in the nearby camps don't look fake."

"Are they all Lu Bu?"

As the words fell, bullet comments floated past one after another:

【Killed 200 and captured 200 in a bayonet fight with only 7 injured? Are you bragging?】

【Everyone is Lu Bu, lol?】

【If this were a mechanized unit crushing infantry, this battle record would be fine; bayonet fighting? A bit outrageous, right?】

【Not outrageous, what he said is true.】

【????】

【I was the one taken away by this group of people during the charge, but more than half of those 400 people were farmers pulled into the team by the officer...】

【Then that's fine, well-trained soldiers fighting farmers...】

【It's good that they carry the word 'Royal', it's reasonable to have some combat effectiveness.】

【Why do I feel like this 3rd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment looks down on everyone, looking at people with their nostrils?】

Looking at the bullet comments, Zhou Hao said, "It really is."

"Don't look at this battalion as having few people, just a thousand or so."

"But everyone is big and tall."

"Taller than most soldiers of the surrounding British Commonwealth and American Federation troops by half a head."

"Plus the previous battle record in bayonet fighting."

"The surrounding British Commonwealth and American Federation soldiers are all afraid of them and basically walk around them."

"After all, they all use guns to kill people."

"And these people in the Australian battalion use knives to stab people."

"The level of cruelty is different."

"Everyone knows how to use a gun to shoot people, but the record of using a knife to stab people is so fierce; who dares to bet that there aren't a few perverted serial killers among these thousand or so people."

"So even the friendly troops in the neighboring camp are afraid of them."

"This unit has now been treated as the top-secret ace unit of the British 27th Brigade; usually, the soldiers of this 3rd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment don't have to do anything, just stay leisurely."

Hearing Zhou Hao's explanation, everyone finally understood.

Why other troops were in a wartime state, even in the streams of top elites like the American 1st Cavalry Division, the soldiers were all preparing for battle.

And the Australians in this stream were actually leisurely, playing ball, and drinking coffee; so that's how it is.

Secret ace unit?

Then it's normal to have some special treatment,

However.

Blue Star players always feel that these big, tall guys, and the arrogance in their eyes, don't have combat effectiveness as exaggerated as the legends.

But those heights of one meter nine, or even close to two meters, are indeed intimidating.

After all, it's a Royal Regiment, so it must be top-notch in all aspects, and the physique can't be bad either, otherwise where would they gather these thousand or so soldiers over one meter nine.

And looking at the "real-time map," a part of the 【Republic】's Volunteer Army is also surrounding this way.

It is estimated that it won't be long before the joint forces of various countries organized by the American Federation will clash head-on with the 【Republic】, and then we will be able to see the combat effectiveness of each country's troops.

Two days later.

Two days have passed in reality, and nearly a week has passed in the game.

At this moment.

Inside Peng Feng's stream.

The American 1st Cavalry Division he is with has already headed to the Yunshan region, preparing to replace the southern puppet army, but the American Federation side doesn't know yet that the Yunshan region has been secretly surrounded by the 【Republic】's Volunteer Army 39th Army.

But Peng Feng has the "real-time map" and can see it clearly.

And the 【Republic】's 38th Army on the map is also surrounding the Yunshan region, clearly preparing to encircle and annihilate the southern puppet army.

It's just that because of the sudden replacement of troops by the American Federation, the 39th Army's troops have begun to take action.

Seemingly preparing to launch an attack ahead of schedule.

Peng Feng focused his attention, holding the submachine gun in his hand, preparing to lie down at any time to ensure his safety and stream the battlefield situation.
