The reason why the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces used the time bomb was because the explosion of the oil storage tank was extremely powerful. If the delayed detonation method was not used, all the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces near the oil storage tank would be blasted into charred flesh.

Fade Chen saw that the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces installed time bombs on the oil storage tanks, and immediately ordered the snipers to kill the engineers who installed the time bombs. At the same time, he ordered the communication soldiers to ask the plateau combat division to speed up their march. If the plateau combat division was a step late, I'm afraid the fuel warehouse will not be able to keep it.

The snipers quickly killed the engineer who installed the time bomb, and the plateau combat division also received Chen Fei's request for help. The commander of the plateau combat division decided to speed up the march, ignore the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces that were harassing around, and rushed directly to the fuel storage warehouse .

The plateau combat division immediately accelerated its march and rushed towards the fuel storage warehouse. Because of the high wall of the grain storage warehouse, the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces could not conquer it for a while, so no support was needed.

The plateau combat division quickly reached the outside of the fuel storage warehouse. The Anglo-Swiss coalition forces without anti-armor weapons had nothing to do with the plateau combat division, and all retreated after a symbolic resistance.

The plateau combat division did not pursue the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces and allowed them to retreat. Fortunately, the plateau combat division arrived in time and the oil storage tank was not destroyed by the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces.

The Plateau Combat Division took control of the fuel depots and grain depots. The Anglo-Swiss coalition forces realized that the attempt to burn the grain and fuel oil could no longer be effective, so they began to retreat wholeheartedly. Their retreat route was the same as the previous route, retreating all the way west, passing Lake Inari, and then into Swedish territory.

The retreat of the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces was very embarrassing, because they were worried that the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces would chase them behind, but the plateau combat division did not do so. After Murmansk was captured, the plateau combat division had to implement a more important step in Lin Yuan's plan. That is to go straight to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.

It was January [-]th at this time, and there was still some time before Lin Yuan's request to enter Stockholm in early February, so Fang Xianyang did not rush to attack, but ordered the plateau combat division to rest in Murmansk.

During the rest and reorganization process, each unit must replenish its ammunition and food, and some units have experienced combat attrition, and these attrition must be supplemented by reserve personnel.

From Murmansk to Stockholm, there are thousands of kilometers. Fang Xianyang decided to first enter Rovaniemi, an important city in Finland, and use Rovaniemi as one of the forward bases, and then enter the Gulf of Bothnia. Attack Stockholm on ice.

Rovaniemi is a very famous city in Finland. Legend has it that this city is the hometown of Santa Claus. This city happens to be on the Arctic Circle. People who came here in the Lin Yuan era had to put their feet on the Arctic Circle to take a group photo. Take a souvenir.

At this time, Finland is a country within China’s sphere of influence. With China’s help, its economic strength and people’s living standards have been greatly improved. Finland does not dare to prevent the Chinese army from crossing the border, because Finland tacitly allows the Anglo-Swiss coalition forces to cross its border to attack China. , this matter has angered Lin Yuan, if Finland does not agree to Lin Yuan's request, Lin Yuan will definitely give Finland some seriousness.

At this time, all the oil used in Finland for industrial production and central heating comes from the Siberian oil region in China. If the Finns do not allow the Chinese army to pass through, then Lin Yuan will find a way to cut off the oil pipeline in Finland and let the population of millions of cities in Finland pass. A cold winter without heating.

On January 25, the rested plateau combat division headed for Rovaniemi. After entering Finland, they drove on a smooth road, and the plateau combat division's maneuvering speed has also been greatly improved.

On January 27, the Plateau Combat Division arrived in Rovaniemi, replenished food and oil here, and continued northward into the Gulf of Bothnia.

Entering the Gulf of Bothnia, the latitude is much lower, the polar night phenomenon is no longer obvious, and the sun can finally be seen during the day.

When the plateau fighters saw the rising sun, they all raised their arms and shouted excitedly, but Fang Xianyang was frowning, because the appearance of the sun meant that the ice layer was thinning, and once the ice melted, the plateau fighters would be unable to move an inch .

Plateau combat divisions need to travel up to [-] kilometers on the ice. This distance requires several logistics supply points. Finnish cities have become these supply points. With Finland’s help in this war, China’s situation is much better. If Finland Sweden is also looking for trouble for China, so this battle will be even more difficult to fight.

Finland and Sweden are different, historically, Finland has never had a powerful empire like Sweden, so Finland does not want to be part of a Central European co-government world like Sweden.

The ice surface of the Gulf of Bothnia and the ice surface of the White Sea are also different. The White Sea is surrounded by alpine wastelands, while around the Gulf of Bothnia, there are beautiful towns and dense coniferous forests, but the Gulf of Bothnia It would be tedious to see no polar bears on the ice.

Huge ice packs can also be seen on the ice in the Gulf of Bothnia. These ice packs are like huge icebergs, standing on top of the ice, often reaching a height of more than ten meters.

After resupplying at several supply stations in Finland, the plateau combat division finally arrived at Gavle, about [-] kilometers north of Stockholm.

When the Plateau Combat Division marched, Fade Chen and his subordinates did not follow. They returned to St. Petersburg, waiting for Lin Yuan's next order.

Lin Yuan didn't just send a single unit to attack Stockholm. He also sent other units. They were the troops stationed in St. Petersburg of the Siberian Military Region. Under the escort of the Russian Navy, it will go straight to Stockholm by sea.

Stockholm is a coastal city. Its east side is the Baltic Sea. It faces St. Petersburg across the Baltic Sea. The Russian army intends to cross the Baltic Sea and attack Stockholm.

In this way, the Russian army attacking on the east side of Stockholm will attract Sweden's full attention. No one would have thought that the plateau combat division would launch a surprise attack on the north side of Stockholm.

After the Battle of Murmansk, Lin Yuan announced with great fanfare that he would attack Stockholm to punish the disobedient Prince Eugene, and also publicized the fact that he had dispatched the Fourth Division and other troops, which made Prince Eugene very nervous.

Prince Eugene hurriedly found his subordinates to discuss. Prince Eugene has a group of capable military officers, among whom there are two most powerful, one is the commander-in-chief of the army, Alexander Sen, and the other is the chief of the army's general staff, Ed Teng Man, many of the Swedish names contain "Sen" and "Man".
