Chapter 255: What's the Matter?
No one would have imagined in advance that the two disgusted "Osumi"-class amphibious assault ships would actually become the last straw for the US-Japan mixed fleet.
Just like no one can know that in the calm and beautiful South China Sea, there are still fierce chengguan and demolition offices.
This qiē, like the fiasco of the US military in the Middle East, only happened in just half a day.
Yesterday evening, the aircraft carriers "Roosevelt" and "Truman" were knocked out of all escort ships, becoming a veritable bare-bones commander; In the early hours of this morning, the aircraft carrier "Lincoln" was sunk by the Omani Navy; Early this morning, the mixed fleet of the United States and Japan, which rushed to the Middle East, was replaced with all its national flags by the "South China Sea Chengguan" in the waters of the Dongsha Islands. In the morning, the US and Japanese formations that did not heed the warning of the "chengguan" to stop the ship were dismantled by the "demolition and relocation office" and all the propellers of the ships!
What's wrong with the United States? How could it be that in less than a day, including the "Kitty Hawk", which was forced to drop anchor, four aircraft carriers lost their combat capability!
What's wrong with the world? Even the most powerful maritime power has been beaten to the ground, and what kind of force should the United States need to protect "democracy" and "freedom" around the world?
What's really going on in the Middle East?
What's really going on in the South China Sea?
Where will the world go?
…………
Rear Admiral Wilson didn't have time to think about the damage that had been done to the United States in just one day, and the commander of the U.S. fleet was now bent on getting out of this damn sea. Because sure enough, as Dongxiang Shenjing said, these so-called "urban management" or "demolition and relocation office" law enforcement agencies, their law enforcement style is really "very violent"!
However, whether in theory or in practice, it is obviously not realistic to have the "Osumi"-class tugboat, which has a full load displacement of only 14,000 tons, tow the "Kitty Hawk" with a full load of 100,000 tons back to the Kadena US military base. Therefore, Wilson gave an order to Togo Fukai: drag the "Kitty Hawk" with two "Osumi" classes.
With such an order, Dongxiang Fukai's mood can be imagined.
First of all, they looked down on the slow Japanese warships, and in order to support the Middle East as much as possible, they abandoned their allies in the dangerous South China Sea; Later, he was hit by the "Nanhai City Management" and the "Demolition and Relocation Office", and was watched by the Chinese Navy, but he didn't even have the courage to fight a war; In the end, he brazenly ordered all the Japanese warships that had been ordered to be abandoned by him to rescue the American warships!
This is the Americans?
This is the Americans!
In addition to America's own interests, anyone and any ally can be used by them, or they can abandon it at will, such as the current Japanese fleet.
In fact, Togo's plan was not against the United States, what he wanted was to slowly follow the US military to the Middle East theater. By that time, the United States and the Arab League of God would fight to the death, and it was no longer known what the war would become. But in any case, it was in the interests of the Great Japanese Empire to weaken the strength of either side.
Only when both sides lose will Japan have a chance to regain its former glory!
As for the continent across the sea to the west, sooner or later it will be the safe home of the Emperor of Japan and all his subjects.
There, there are no volcanoes and earthquakes that erupt frequently; There, there is an extremely broad strategic depth; There, there are abundant resources of all kinds; There, there are more than a billion Chinese untouchables waiting to return to the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere"!
As long as Japan can occupy that continent, it will have the support and confidence to compete for world hegemony.
But to realize this dream, it is impossible to bypass the United States. It is conceivable that the United States will never allow the emergence of a huge, powerful, extremely aggressive, and offensive opposition force on the East Asian continent! At that time, between the two countries, the only way to decide who is in charge of the ups and downs is through guò war.
This is a predestined fate, and it is absolutely impossible to bypass it.
Since there will be a war with the United States, why not take advantage of the Arab Divine Alliance to start a war with it to weaken the power of this future adversary as much as possible!
But now, this American commander, who was bent on escaping for his life, shamelessly wanted to requisition all the "Osumi" classes for his escape, and in the tone and form of an order, which made Togo Fukai extremely angry - we are allies! Allies, you know? It can only be negotiated and acted, and it is the qualification of all allies to give orders to each other!
If it weren't for the fact that the warship couldn't move and couldn't dodge the U.S. military's return fire, I'm afraid Togo would have fired a missile at the "Kitty Hawk" at that time!
After pouring most of the bottle of sake, Togo panted and forced himself to calm down.
Anyway, the main task of the Japanese fleet is to follow the US troops across the shore to watch the fire, and then sit on the advantage of the fisherman, the later it arrives at the battlefield, the more American blood will flow! And it is not easy for a huge nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to replace its propellers.
By the time the "Kitty Hawk" battle group recovers, a few days, weeks, or months have passed, and the war in the Middle East will be over?
Whether the League defeats the United States or the United States exterminates the Arabs, it should be a bitter battle, and no one will be the real winner.
The United States has already begun to go downhill, and another war with the Arabs, whether it wins or loses, will accelerate the world hegemon into the abyss of decay.
In that case, why care about immediate gains and losses? If the Americans want to go to the battlefield and die early, then let them die early and reincarnate early!
Anyway, after being towed back to Japan this time, Togo has decided to order a comprehensive inspection of all Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force ships to detect and solve the incident where the propeller is prone to "falling off". When does the inspection end...... Try to take the course of the war in the Middle East as a reference!
Thinking in his heart, Dongxiang Fukai suddenly felt that the Lingtai was clear, without anger or anger, and he did not care about the order of the US military to forcibly recruit Japanese ships, and even specially informed the captains of the two "Osumi" class ships to "do things with all their hearts, and not to fall into the demeanor of the Imperial Navy".
Driven by these two "tugboats," the "Kitty Hawk" slowly left its anchorage, made a big circle on the sea, and then adjusted its course and sailed with the "tugboats" toward Taiwan's waters in the northeast.
Seeing that the US aircraft carrier was gradually moving away, Togo Fukai's face was calm, but he had already clenched his fists.
One day, all these American white-skinned pigs will be sent to the bottom of the sea!
While secretly vowing, Togo was suddenly surprised to see the "Kitty Hawk" stop - is this a conscience discovery?
When did Americans also have such noble discipline?
Togo was puzzled, and before he could make an inquiry, he suddenly felt that the hull of the "Ise" under his feet suddenly shook, and he began to move forward slowly......
