Chapter 688: The Thief's End

A sea and air battle unfolded in the ocean 50 nautical miles northwest of the US base on Guam.

A dazed golden dragon watched the whole process.

After an emergency rendezvous with the small fleet, Togo Fukai had two Hyuga-class helicopter destroyers, sixteen Kongo-class and Atago-class destroyers, four Soryu-class submarines, and two supply ships.

It was accompanied by two amphibious landing ships carrying a total of 2,000 Marines and their related equipment.

The mission of this Japanese fleet was originally to go to support the US forces in the Middle East who were beaten by the Arab Alliance, but now, its target has been changed to the US base in Guam!

When Togo confidently issued the order to attack, he didn't realize that this was not an attack operation.

In fact, as early as the time of the negotiations between China and the United States, the different reactions of the countries of the world to the collapse of the US aircraft carrier cluster were already presented to the two heads of state.

Among them, Japan is also included.

Therefore, every move of the Dongxiang Fleet can be said to fall in the eyes of China and the United States, and there is no concealment at all, let alone the "suddenness" that Japan considers itself.

No one will forgive a white-eyed wolf who bites his owner - even though Japan is far from a wolf.

Especially after Liu Yun promised to lift the total suppression of US military power, the self-righteous Japanese obviously became the target of US anger.

In this regard, Japan and India have also opted for unrealistic military means, but the results have been very different.

After losing an aircraft carrier battle group, India said that it was still a "training accident" and that it could re-purchase warships and aircraft to arm itself. If no one deliberately picks thorns, this white elephant can still be the king of the mountains in South Asia.

But Japan is different. If the island nation fails in its gamble, it will have to return to the end of being a colony, and this is only if the victorious country wants to.

If the winner is unhappy, it is not impossible to sink the Japanese archipelago alive!

Especially now, when Togo Fukai controls almost half of the Japanese naval forces, if it is defeated, Japan will have nowhere to escape!

Between national interests and personal achievements, Togo clearly chose the latter, bent on becoming "great figures who will go down in history" like Heihachiro Togo and Isoroku Yamamoto.

It is a pity that Guam did not give this ambitious Japanese general a chance. To be precise, neither China nor the United States wants to see a well-armed, powerful but ambitious Japan!

If your dog is always waiting to bite the owner to death, he didn't feel it when he was strong before, but now he starts to bark his teeth when he sees that you are sick and weak, and he wants to secretly bite at any time...... What would you do?

The American choice is simple.

Because the United States has run out of options.

"Harpoon" and "Tomahawk" were launched from Guam one after another, "Ticonderoga" and "Arleigh Burke" were already in ambush on the battlefield, and only one squad of F-16 fighters took off from Andersen Air Force Base, except for a small group of special aircraft responsible for electronics, command, and anti-submarine.

Everything else, all bombers!

Whether it is the B-52 "Stratofortress" of the grandfather's generation, or the new talents such as the B-1B and B-2, or even the A-10 "Warthog" attack aircraft that has not had time to be transferred to the Middle East...... As long as it has the ability to bomb the sea, the Guam base will not leave a single plane, and all of them will be released!

Anyway, apart from helicopter gunships, the Japanese do not have any carrier-based aircraft that can compete with American air power.

This time, the Americans are determined to break the backbone of the Japanese dog!

In the past, Japan was still needed to suppress China and contain the Western Pacific, but now even the United States itself has surrendered to the defeat, so why keep this mad dog?

Kill it!

As early as Liu Yun's visit to the White House on 15 July, the two sides tacitly determined certain international relations. Now, for the main Japanese fleet sent to the door, it is just a process of execution.

If you are expelled by your master, you can only become a wild dog.

If it is discovered by the chengguan, it will inevitably become a dead dog.

The current US military is the "chengguan" deployed on Guam......

The United States, which had long been aware of the Japanese army's movements, had already made all preparations to deal with it, and all it had to do now was to "fight the dogs."

In addition to the noisy outside society and the deep wells of Dongxiang, which is bent on victory, the United States -- most of them including China -- now has to add a dizzy little golden dragon.

…………

Due to the shortcomings of carrier-based aircraft and long-range firepower, Togo Fukai was basically unable to hit several naval and air bases on Guam. Therefore, as soon as he discovered that the other side had seen through the smokescreen of the "exercise" and immediately eased up on the Japanese missile offensive, Togo immediately knew that the sneak attack had failed, and all the Japanese fleet could do was to desperately resist the attack from Guam.

Battleships without sufficient air defense have become a luxury even to run!

If you can't steal chickens, you will naturally fold rice. And before stealing chickens, Togo was already mentally prepared for the possibility of losing money, but the Japanese naval commander did not expect that the current United States is already a red-eyed bald eagle, and it is impossible to let go of any thief who dares to take advantage of the fire to rob!

What's more, it's a dog that I once raised?

For specific treatment, we can refer to the Indian aircraft carrier formation that has just been completely annihilated by the United States today.

To make matters worse, in the face of American air power, all anti-aircraft missiles lose their effectiveness!

Once the friend or foe identifier confirms that the target is "one's own person", it will automatically bypass it and find a new target.

But in this battle, in addition to the US fighters with the same identification code of friend or foe, there was only a golden dragon left quietly watching.

Before launching the attack, Togo did not think about the issue of identification codes, and also asked the technical officers to set a new response code, the purpose of which was to enable the missile to launch an attack smoothly.

However, under the long-term suppression of the United States, whether it is imported from the United States or produced by Japan, all missiles must use chips provided by the United States without exception. And its lowest-level source code is naturally only in the hands of the United States.

Therefore, these expensive anti-aircraft missiles could only be turned into brilliant fireworks off the coast of Guam, and with the hope of Togo Fukai and all the Japanese officers and soldiers, they finally sank into the deep Mariana Trench.

The big gamble of the Japanese was once again declared a failure.

It's like a hyena that secretly wants to besiege a lion, only to realize that he forgot to bring his dentures when he is full of murder......

Togo Fukai smashed the wine bottle and kicked over the desk, but he still couldn't save the fate of the fleet. The only order that the commander could think of was to "break out separately".

As for the direction of the breakout? Where else is there a direction?

As long as you don't see Amaterasu, where you can escape, it's the direction of escape.

However, the Americans apparently did not believe in Amaterasu, an indigenous Japanese deity, so they continued to use military planes to chase and attack the fleeing Japanese ships. All kinds of bombs and missiles poured down like they didn't want money, blocking the way of all warships.

Togo Fukai himself was on the "Hyuga"-class helicopter destroyer, watching the helicopters that were about to fly away being blown off their rotors and blown into flames; Watch the bombs smash through the horizontal deck and roar in the cabin; Watch as the missiles skim over the smoky sea, and then plunge headlong into the beloved battleship; Watch as hordes of U.S. warplanes whizz overhead, leaving a trail of icy fire......

The anti-aircraft missiles, which were boasted about by the military-industrial complex and experts before the war, did not react to this.

The worst were the Marines on those two amphibious landing ships. Those who were killed on the spot were lucky, and those soldiers who lost the protection of the mothership and were injured by the explosion could only struggle in the burning seawater, helpless and helpless.

The dorsal fins of the sharks began to appear, and the sharks could be seen churning from time to time. The sea is stained red with blood, which will attract more sharks. The screams of the officers and soldiers who fell into the water rang out everywhere, but no one stopped to help.

Togo himself had seen a huge shark rush by, and the body in its mouth was still struggling desperately......

Togo seemed to have heard the soldier's miserable cries for help.

This should be the last whisper left in the world, right, like the peeping girl herself under the cherry blossom tree back then? Dongxiang Fukai sighed softly, brushed away the scenes of the past that kept flashing in his mind, hummed his favorite "Jun's Generation", untied his straight military uniform, picked up the white silk handkerchief, and began to wipe the exquisite war knife at hand.

Soldiers and warships can perish in the sea, but the Japanese nation's yearning and pursuit of the mainland will never die!

However, neither the Japanese Navy, which sank with the ship or was buried in the belly of the fish, nor Commander Fukai Togo, who was martyred by disembowelment, did not expect that after losing this bet, Japan would forever lose the space and qualifications to survive.

Its national fortunes will come to an abrupt end!

An hour later, calm finally returned to the sea near northwest Guam.

Apart from the slightly brown waters and a few floating debris, there was no sign of life. Even the schools of sharks chasing flesh and blood sailed away after a full meal, leaving the place where good memories were made.

Under the blue water, in the dark trenches, and on the deep seabed, there are only patches of warship wreckage, which still tell the arrogance and ambition of a nation......

The Japanese fleet was all sunk, but the American forces were still not at ease. Patrol planes continue to circulate in circles over the battlefield like a flock of vultures. Searching for possible survivors. And their purpose is to take the lives of any survivor without mercy!

The Americans, who were attacked again, the Americans who were enraged, do not want to leave themselves with any more security risks!

At the same time, at the distant base in Hawaii, a large number of strategic bombers full of fuel and bombs have long since sailed on the runway. They will be like the Doolittle death squads back then, using the anger of the United States to ignite that despicable and ruthless shameless island nation.

This is what a thief should do!
