My America

Chapter 224: Happy troubles

The Cagayan Valley is the second largest region in the Philippines and is located in the eastern part of Luzon, including Bataan, Cagayan, Isabela, New Bishagaye and Quirino, and Cagayan , Tuguegarao and San Diego.

Further north is the Pacific Ocean, so Sheffield said that this rebel force is about to be driven to the sea is not a lie. During the head-on confrontation, despite the same logistical support and weaponry, the US Expeditionary Force is undoubtedly a tough one. But tidying up these indigenous people is not a problem.

The Cagayan Valley is even more frightening than the distant seas. The fear of the Philippine Resistance is that it may not be terrifying, but if someone forces you to jump into the sea, it is another matter. After the counterattack failed, the rebel soldiers in the Cagayan Valley faced this situation. If they retreated, they would face the warm Pacific Ocean, and the sea would become their final destination.

But that's how it is. When the troops of the American Expeditionary Force entered this place carefully under cover, the Filipinos did not know where the courage and strength came from. Many people were ready to fight to death. For American soldiers, bullets may be fired in any direction, and the warm beaches of the Pacific Ocean seem to be in front of us, but no one still feels appreciated.

Most importantly, it is a dense forest with complicated terrain. For an aggressor, this has almost gathered all the Philippine mothers can do to the aggressor, the endless tropical forest, and the weapons in the Philippines, although not very sophisticated, but deadly enough for the rebels This kind of collocation is already very troublesome.

Filipinos hiding here can no longer ask their motherland to do more. All they can do is take advantage of everything around them to give Americans a heavy blow.

In this environment, heavy firepower is almost useless. The soldiers of the expeditionary army need to go out and walk between survival and death in search of the true meaning of life. As for whether you can finally go to the battlefield with good luck, this question mainly depends on whether God ’s appointment is full today, and if not, it can be discussed.

During the battle in the jungle, American soldiers threw out their rifles without hesitation and replaced them with a lot of people who used skilled shotguns before joining the army. In this environment, the issue of the range of the shotgun is not very important, but the advantage of the killing area has been magnified.

Sam, a soldier who was leaning against a tree, was one of them. Now he is clinging to a trunk of unknown age and filling up his magazines. He ca n’t remember how many bullets he still has in his magazine, but The only certainty is that he hasn't hit an enemy yet, because every shot of him looks aimless. Behind the big trees that look similar and may be very normal, there may be a Filipino hidden, maybe more.

In the vicinity of Sam, the surrounding situation is not much different. The companions are silently reloading and filtering all suspicious targets with bullets, and then chatting under certain circumstances.

"Hey! Listen, everyone!" Sam's platoon leader gathered several soldiers including him, "We can't stay here all the time, we have to move forward! We throw the grenade 50 meters away and explode in a while Afterwards, we turned to the level on this side to make a roundabout, and then determined the safety of this forest! Do you understand? "

The soldiers nodded, and their platoon leader told them again: "You must keep up with you and suppress the rifle opposite you! There is also a gunner, don't throw that box ammunition!"

In the process of cover, even if American soldiers are very partial to shotguns, they will not be exposed to such cover with their backs. The scope of shotgun damage is so huge. Who dares to do it? So there are still a few soldiers who retained the rifle and participated in the clearance of the forest.

Sam followed the others to remove the grenade from his waist, unscrewed the iron cover, wrapped the inside string around the index finger of his left hand, and the right hand was ready to throw the grenade out at any time, and then the assault began.

The soldiers were crossed and plowed by artillery, and how many craters remained was the forest starting to move forward. Many soldiers also specifically stepped on the craters, but it is not that the soldiers have grown up in the war, just because they believe that there will be no poisonous snakes or other unknown but deadly enough things near the shells. They would rather After being killed, I don't want to be killed in this environment by unknown.

Footsteps and gunshots flooded the dense forest. The soldiers who usually do their best and also couldn't control their crotch also kept careful. Any abnormality can make them tremble like leaves in the wind.

In the jungle, the gunshots were endless. Although it was impossible to observe the artillery positions in the distance, everyone knew that the soldiers of the expeditionary army and the rebels of the Philippines were fighting fiercely.

A Filipino holding a rifle with no bullets on his hind legs, he ca n’t remember when he shot the bullets, but the resistance fighters around him seem to have the same situation as themselves, and they are going to rely on the bayonet in their hands. Final resistance with the buttstock.

"Why can't we surrender? Maybe there is still a way out!" Suddenly such a voice appeared.

"Shut up, you traitor, Americans are more hateful than Spaniards, they occupy our women, occupy our land, do the same thing as Spain, but are more hypocritical." Overwhelming accusations and abuse At this point, the rest of the people were rebels who were extremely determined, and surrendered if they were not determined.

This generation of Filipino freedom fighters is still very conscious, and has a deep insight into the imperialist conspiracy, and has used a very simple language to strengthen their minds, perseverance in difficult circumstances, I believe they will have a good result.

Two days later, the victory of the Cagayan Valley's successful settlement was passed to Manila. It first made the joint headquarters happy, and then received this sad news in Sheffield of the joint company.

"The military operations of the Expeditionary Force were very smooth. Many Filipinos were crushed despite their heroic resistance." Jesra clearly appreciated the Expeditionary Force's actions, and he said a few more words unsmilingly.

"Where is this, maybe it's just the beginning. But well, it's a success." Sheffield doesn't believe what a military operation can mean. Later textbooks said that the Philippines ’war with the United States should be the first bourgeois revolution in Asia. The significance is still very significant, and the United States has not solved all problems in a short time.

This requires a specific analysis of the specific problem. If the expeditionary force is on the frontal battlefield, then it is naturally a winning streak. But a hundred years later, the US military was in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the same was true at the beginning. But then the regular war became a security war.

Moreover, the security battles have been fought too much, and the accumulated experience is useless to the real enemies. Later generations of the United States suffered from such troubles, and even caused a decline in the army ’s combat effectiveness.

When problems occurred in Ukraine in Eastern Europe, the conflicts and contradictions in Ukraine finally broke out, and the two countries, the United States and Russia, also intervened immediately, extending from the economic aspect to the military aspect. The US military relied on its riches and sent a large number of military advisers to the Ukrainian battlefield to assist in commanding the Ukrainian army, and their opponent Russia was not willing to be outdone. It also sent military advisers into the battlefield.

Opening up the posture, the American adviser's command made serious mistakes. Inertial thinking made them think of their enemies as guerrillas in Iraq and Afghanistan, but in fact pro-Russian eastern armed forces possessed a large number of Russian-made heavy weapons, and even Russian volunteers and mercenaries.

A U.S. military advisor led a Ukrainian military convoy to the front. Before passing a bridge, the U.S. military advisor asked the area to be inspected. Because this is an open area. According to the experience of "security wars" in Afghanistan and Iraq, such places are easily buried by roadside bombs. The military stopped and inspected as requested by an American adviser.

The advisors sent by the Russian military saw a surprise? Too despise the military power left over from the Soviet Union. The piled-up targets were all collected, and a few minutes later, the bomb was not found, but countless large-caliber artillery rockets roared, covering the entire Ukrainian army.

Sheffield remembered the US-Philippines war. There were not many soldiers killed or wounded by the US military, but the war also fought for several years. Subsequently, the US military declared the end of the liquidation in the Philippines, but this was a unilateral claim that according to the standards of the US-Philippine war, The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have long ended.

But this kind of security battle should be fought, because it is definitely a good thing for the United Company. There are not many casualties but the war is not over. This is the favorite mode of war for military industrial enterprises. Protests caused by few deaths and injuries are not big. For a long time, energy sources continue to create benefits for enterprises. As for ordinary soldiers, who cares about their life and death.

"If the war is over so quickly, it will be detrimental to our joint company, because we are the main contractors, and if the intensity of the war is too strong, it will be very detrimental to the other departments of our joint company, because some industries need a fair deal. The security environment that can be. "Sheffield caressed her forehead, very worried trouble," This big company is the trouble of the big company, although this trouble is also very happy, "
