Skagway's disastrous defeat forced Alex to face up to the northern battlefield again, but he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart that he could make a comeback. After all, the Yanhuang people now only control the Yukon Territory, which is the least developed area in Maple Leaf Country that doesn't even have trains. For the entire northern continent, it doesn't affect the situation too much, but it can't let the Yanhuang people continue to move forward.
Alex is a man of guts, after deciding that it was pointless to continue defending the Yukon. He ordered the Air Force to evacuate nearly 200,000 troops stranded in two cities in the northern part of the Yukon Territory to British Columbia, Maple Leaf, by air force and sea, and to strengthen the control of the two railway terminals of Fort Nelson and Dislake. He also increased troops to Fort Good Hope and other places, and was ready to cross the Mackenzie Mountains at any time, forming a pincer attack on the Yanhuang army;
Facing Alex's adjustment, Zuo Qingyun also made some adjustments. What everyone didn't expect was that Zuo Qingyun didn't choose to confront Alex. Instead, they asked the 30th Army to hand over the newly occupied area to the 29th Army, and then went north to Fort McPherson with light equipment, waiting for their own orders. The 27th Army took advantage of the situation and crossed the previous defense line of the coalition forces, arrived at Heschel and Dawson, and continued to serve as the general reserve team. The 28th Army was stationed in Alaska and the Aliu Islands, and the 26th Army was stationed in Chukotka and Kamchatka Peninsula, making every effort to ensure the security of the rear.
Fort McPherson is located in the north of Yukon, Maple Leaf Country. Perhaps it was once a colonist stronghold, so it was called a fortress. However, the fortress in the middle of the city that has stood for hundreds of years also fully proves this point. The coalition forces once set up this place as a front-line headquarters, but they were forced to abandon it because of poor traffic. after the coalition forces withdrew
Here they were razed to the ground with explosives to prevent the Yanhuang people from using these cities as springboards. But the decline of Fort McPherson lasted only a few days before it was changed by the Yanhuang people and Eskimos who followed.
Under the guidance of the Eskimos, the Yanhuang soldiers first lived in warm igloos, and then used the tools they brought to dig out caves that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. Everyone in the 30th Army will live in such a cave for more than ten days, or even longer. The reason why the surface buildings were not restored was because Zuo Qingyun did not allow it. He wanted the Allies to still think that Fort McPherson was still a ruin, nothing had changed. And all of this was done almost seamlessly with the help of the Eskimos. The coalition forces continued to send out drones for reconnaissance before, but in the end they chose to forget about it.
Since the Yanhuang army captured Skagway, it seems that the northern war has entered a relatively defensive period. Although the coalition forces launched several counterattacks, most of them returned without success. With the Eskimos, the Yanhuang army is completely unafraid of the sneak attacks of the Canadian junglers, and even in many cases, the coalition forces have to face the sneak attacks of the Eskimos. This caused the Maple Leaf government to issue successive accusations against the Eskimos, claiming that their actions were treasonous acts and that they would have to pay the price for everything they did. Instead of stopping the Eskimos, this behavior of the Maple Leaf government made the Eskimos more dependent on the Yanhuang people.
But at this moment, for Zuo Qingyun, what he cares about is not such a war of words, but the next military action. If you want to complete this military operation, you must learn a skill, that is skiing. Fighting near the Arctic Circle, skiing can be said to be one of the skills that soldiers must master. This area is covered with snow all the year round, and human beings cannot walk by themselves at all, and must rely on tools.
For the item of skiing, the Eskimos say that they are the second, and no nation dares to call themselves the first. This is the environment and things that have accumulated slowly over the years, and the physical evolution that has occurred because of the environment. At this moment, everyone in the 30th Army is learning to ski from the Eskimos, mastering the best skills and reducing physical exertion as much as possible.
After the coalition forces gave up the northern part of the Yukon Territory, Zuo Qingyun knew his chance had come. Obviously, Commander Yingjiang believed that the northern glaciers were a natural barrier, and the only way for the Yanhuang army to cross this barrier was to detour or ship by sea. But now the entire northern sea area of Maple Leaf Country is almost frozen, completely blocking the way of the Yanhuang people. Of course, Yingjiang also thought about Yanhuang people crossing this glacier. But in their opinion, this probability is too low, it is completely suicidal behavior. Maple Leaf Country is close to the North Magnetic Pole, and the strong Earth's magnetic field can cause all electronic instruments to fail. Even the compass and compass are useless. It is impossible to complete the mission without navigation and under the premise of satellite surveillance at all times. It is precisely because of this that they are so confident.
But the two countries have just forgotten that Zuo Qingyun still has a trump card in his hand, and that is the Eskimos. In order to survive in winter, Eskimos can only migrate continuously, and they often cross the entire northern coast of Maple Leaf Country. So crossing this glacier in winter itself is their innate ability. Strictly speaking, this is their back garden.
After solving this problem, Zuo Qingyun's plan became feasible. According to Zuo Qingyun's prediction, since Alex sent so many additional troops to the south, the northern troops must be empty, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of. More importantly, the south cannot fight now. Once (Zhao's) takes the initiative to attack himself, he will lose all favorable situations. The coalition forces can take advantage of their defeat to regain all the lost ground. So, no matter what, I must find a way in the north.
"`||What is the code name of this plan"||?" Liang Guang understands Zuo Qingyun's strategic intention, which is to take advantage of the situation to seize the northern part of Maple Leaf Country and force the coalition forces to extend the front line further. Empty window.
"White elves." Zuo Qingyun looked at Liang Guang and couldn't help but chuckled, "Thinking about the fact that we had a headache because of the long battle line, now it's Yingjiang's turn. Expressions, the Oceanic Fleet is under a lot of pressure now, and we have to support them."
"Indeed, we have to support them from the side, and I don't know what choice they will make."
