After the Battle of Rocky Mountain, the expeditionary army marched east along the Central Pacific Railway. The states along the way basically gave up resistance and surrendered at the news.

This is really because the name of "Devil Marshal" in the expeditionary army is too famous. He slaughtered 100,000 soldiers in one battle, which makes people unable to withstand the urge to resist. After the spread of rumors, it is even more terrifying, so it can stop the child from crying at night.

Just one week

The expeditionary force across the Rocky Mountains advanced 1,700 kilometers eastward and arrived at Omaha, the capital of Laska. After slight resistance here, it decisively suppressed and occupied the entire Omaha city.

The United States East Coast spans 4,500 kilometers from the distance to western California. The Pacific Railway starts from Omaha and is divided into two sections: Central Pacific Railway and United Pacific Railway, extending westward for more than 3,000 kilometers, directly to San Francisco, the Metropolitan California.

In other words, the Expeditionary Force conquered almost 2/3 of North America from west to east.

From Omaha to the west of more than 3,000 kilometers to San Francisco, along the Pacific coast, this vast area now has the Pacific Railway as the center line and is basically firmly controlled by the expeditionary forces, with minimal resistance.

However, it is necessary to clearly realize that this is just a line with the Pacific Railway as the core, not a surface. In other words, the military operations of the Expeditionary Force are bounded by the Pacific Railway, almost dividing North America into two. The control power is strong in the area near the Pacific Railway, and the control power is weak or almost equal to nothing.

April 27

Taking advantage of the increasingly fierce craze of the expeditionary army sweeping North America, the Republic of Texas was officially announced and since then it separated from the Federation of the American Republic and became an independent country.

Texas independence was smooth sailing and there were no obstacles.

Because for the US federal government now, the biggest trouble is not Texas independence, but the Ocean Empire Expeditionary Force seriously threatens the industrial center of the Great Lakes with Detroit as the core, and the heart of the United States with Washington, Philadelphia and New York as the core.

This is the primary big trouble. The second big trouble is that since the end of the American Civil War in 1861, the independence thoughts of the southern states have surged again, causing the federal government to face the second big split.

If you have poor families and ruins, you will be sad about everything.

As an immigrant country, the United States has shown more and more cracks in the violent social shock. Those tragic war memories that have caused millions of casualties have been mentioned in the news media again and again, and have gradually come to my mind.

The Ocean Empire Expeditionary Force took different measures against the South and North of the United States, and appeared in the South with mild attitudes as allies or friends, such as California, Texas, Tennessee, North Carolina and other states, showing an unviolable gentle attitude, mainly local autonomy, and generally not implementing military occupation, which has won a considerable reputation.

When dealing with northern states, they show a cruel and cruel side.

On the vast central plain

A Mercedes-Benzing army was heading eastward in a luxurious carriage hanging behind the army. Lieutenant General Duan Qirui, dressed in military uniform, was talking to Major General Bian Chunsong, Brigadier General Wu Peifu (newly promoted), and other senior generals. The topic is naturally inseparable from the most important war at present.

"From the current situation, the northern region led by the Great Lakes Heavy Industrial Zone has a strong will to resist, and all cities have formed local armed forces of all sizes. It is really troublesome to fight one by one.

Expeditionary Force General Command

It is planned to break through the Washington defense line first and occupy the White House. If necessary, it will destroy the Capitol Hill, the Lincoln Memorial and the White House, which symbolize the spirit of the American people, in order to destroy the American will to resist and achieve the goal of defeating the enemy without fighting.

At this stage, the focus is on implementing the troop mobilization plan.

Reinforcements from the empire are continuously landing in Seattle and San Francisco. The renovated main forces will rush their troops to advance eastward, using Omaha as the gathering point of troops to gradually spread to surrounding cities. This is the current major direction.

All the generals have a secret document in their hands, which details some industrial enterprises that must be relocated, including bearing factories, precision machine tool equipment manufacturers, optical devices factories, chemical equipment manufacturers, etc., which must be demolished and relocated in steps and planned manner to three northern states such as Seattle to rebuild the industrial supporting system locally.

Technical personnel and experts related to these factories should try to mobilize them to relocate together.

This is the task assigned by the top peak, which is related to the reconstruction of the three northern states and the foundation for future economic development. It must not be careless. It must be raised to the level of completing military tasks and taken seriously.

Related work requires people to give people, resources, car widows, and safety and security work should be done to prevent the enemy from deliberately destroying it."

"God General, we are very good at fighting, but we are completely confused about this!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Do you have no technical officers under your command? Seattle will arrange some personnel to come and cooperate with the work, and it's mainly up to you..." Lieutenant General Duan Qirui looked around everyone, and saw that everyone was embarrassed, and couldn't help but smile and said with a tooth;

"Don't worry, there are technicians and professors in the Great Lakes Industrial Zone of the United States. There are also many factories in these. Just leave the technical problems in dismantling and installation to them. Whoever is responsible for dismantling will be rebuilt for me in another place. This is a principle.

Gentlemen, I remind you that if you are just a regiment commander, then you just need to fight.

But if you want to go to a higher position, you must share the worries of the empire. Don’t just consider the problem from the military, but stand at a higher level and interpret it from an economic, social and even political perspective.

The current task is a touchstone. It must not only be completed, but also be done well and neatly. After the factory equipment is relocated to Seattle, it can be quickly rebuilt and put into production.

Those who can’t do this are all unqualified, do you understand?”

"I understand, sir."

The people below answered a lot, and it seems that everyone is not interested in such a task and is somewhat afraid of difficulties.

Having said that

Lieutenant General Duan Qirui no longer went deeper. What he could understand would naturally be able to understand. No matter how much he could not understand, it would be useless and would not be of great benefit.

If you have given the opportunity, you can't control it, you can only say that you don't have that ability.
