The federal army was defeated, and it was a big defeat.

Three hundred and fifty thousand troops were eventually withdrawn, less than one hundred and fifty thousand.

The other two hundred thousand were either annihilated, missing or captured.

Among them, the most were captured. According to the statistics of the Chinese Army, the number was as many as 150,000.

Mainly because the Federal Army collapsed too suddenly.

A moment ago, they still had incomparable confidence in their line of defense, so naturally they would not make preparations to retreat and escape. After a sudden collapse the next moment, they could only be taken prisoner in a panic.

Also, the preparation of the Independence Army is not enough, otherwise the Federal Army will have to be left with more soldiers.

However, the loss of 200,000 in World War I was a pain for the federal government.

In order to build the 200,000 army, they spent two or three years, and the investment was huge.

Staff's salary, consumption during training, purchase of weapons and equipment.

This powerful army, which has spent a lot of money to build, is regarded by the federal government as the last hope.

But on the battlefield, their investment was completely lost in a very short time.

Has this army achieved any decent results?

When the news of the defeat of the current side reached Congress, those in power directly fry the pot.

"Damn, these people should go to a military court, they are all guilty."

"The army of more than two hundred thousand is gone like this. What did Kenner eat?"

......

"What, do you still want money to form a new army? Are you sure you are not delivering free labor to the Chinese?"

Hearing the opposite party said that a new army was to be formed, Olinik, who represented the interests of the merchants, directly exploded.

Those businessmen were willing to pay for the formation of the new army because they hoped that the new army could block Dahua's army and preserve the independence of the federal government so that they could continue to enjoy their privileges.

But now that the new army is obviously unable to stop Dahua's army, then they have to consider whether it is still worth investing in.

If you put all your belongings on, but you still lose, it might as well give up now, and you can at least save some of your property.

"If we don't form a new army, will we just sit and wait for death?"

The big landlord Thomas, who represented the interests of the manor owner, asked rhetorically that he was a stubborn member of the federal government.

Because after the failure of the federal government, their land will definitely be confiscated, but the merchant’s property may not.

In contrast, they have no choice.

"Thomas, you have to make those generals speak out. If every battle is the same as the Battle of Memphis, there is no point in forming a new army."

"They won't be defeated forever."

"The reality is that they are failing all the time."

.......

At the meeting, the federal government had split into two factions.

One of them said that they should surrender to Dahua immediately, and with the capital in their hands, they could get a little preferential treatment as much as possible.

The other faction hopes to increase investment in the army and resist to the end.

The quarrel between the two factions almost fought in Congress, and the contradictions between the two parties could no longer be reconciled.

On the front lines, the federal army was retreating steadily.

In terms of numbers, plus the defenders in various places, there are still many of them, but the whole army has no fighting spirit.

Even a soldier at the bottom level felt that the federal government was about to die.

Moreover, with the passage of time, those soldiers also learned of Dahua's declaration of equality from various channels, and knew that the federal government had deceived themselves.

Those Indian soldiers are even less motivated. After the federal government fails, they can still get the same rights as the whites.

If that's the case, why bother desperately?

The federal army without fighting spirit retreated all the way, while the Independence Army and the Chinese Army advanced unimpeded.

Soon, Tennessee and Kentucky all fell into the hands of UOB.

Immediately afterwards, Dahua followed the Mississippi River into Illinois and Indiana.

A few months later, Dahua regained all the fertile soil around the Mississippi River and took control of this large granary.

However, they also temporarily lost the power to continue marching eastward.

Their troops are scattered to these places to guard against rebellion.

Those places that have just been conquered will not be convinced so quickly. It takes a period of digestion to establish a stable rule in these places.

Before that, they could only stay in these places to rest and rehabilitate while expanding their army.

At the same time, the espionage personnel got the differences within the federal government and learned that one of them was willing to surrender to Dahua.

As a result, the Chinese army immediately adjusted its combat plan and changed the overall offensive to the key offensive.

It takes too much time and investment for a full-scale attack, and it is no choice. It can force the federal government to surrender, that is the most economical and labor-saving way.

In the past, the federal government's will to resist was relatively firm, and the focus of the offensive might not have allowed the joint government to yield.

But now, there is this hope.

As long as there is a surprise attack, Philadelphia will be taken down, those who represent the interests of the manor owners will be shot to death, and friendly negotiations will be held with those surrendering factions.

The basic reason why the federal forces on the front line can barely resist and not completely surrender is that there is a government behind them.

As long as this government is settled first, and when the time comes to demand the surrender of the front-line army by the order of the federal government, all obstacles to surrender will no longer exist.

Philadelphia is not far from the sea. Dahua was able to launch a raid and hit them by surprise, so that those in power could not escape.

The UOB military quickly formulated a new plan, and then the new aircraft carrier fleet set off again.

In the new aircraft carrier fleet, there is a newly built aircraft carrier.

The new aircraft carrier Shenzhou has a larger displacement, reaching 30,000 tons. The length and width are also larger than Feijian, and it can carry 80 carrier-based aircraft at one time.

Compared with these intuitive data, the design of the Shenzhou is more improved than those details.

Better landing methods, faster take-off speed, more reasonable space utilization, more comfortable cabin...

The problems that Feijian exposed in the last battle were solved and improved on the Shenzhou.

It is also an aircraft carrier, and the combat effectiveness of one Shenzhou is at least as good as three Feijian.

Although it takes a lot of money to dispatch an aircraft carrier fleet, the military can only reluctantly allocate funds in order to test the actual combat performance of this aircraft carrier.

When testing the performance, it is also excellent to be able to destroy the United States of America and regain several million square kilometers of territory.

This is the mentality of the UOB military's decision-makers to eliminate the enemy incidentally.

If it is not incidental, they are not rare to use aircraft carrier battle groups against the United States of America, it is not necessary.
