Section 531 The United States declares war on the Allied forces
China's expansion into Southeast Asia, which began in the last two decades, has caused discontent among several powerful countries with special interests in the region, but it is of no use to the tyrannical Chinese Empire. The www.biquge.info thought that Japan would contain China took a bite and decided to tear off a piece of meat from the declining British Lao Tzu (Canada), of course, if the Americans could not be defeated in the North Pacific first, Canada could not belong to Japan anyway. So all this prompted Japan to once again take a risky gamble on national fortunes, and on December 7, the twentieth year of the first century, the Japanese army successfully carried out the Pearl Harbor raid. It was this successful raid by the Japanese army that made the Japanese army full of glory as soon as they appeared on the scene in World War II. It was also this raid that the American GIs accompanied the Japanese army to the end, and began a never-ending entanglement from the Pacific Ocean.
"Little Japan did a really good job." Lao Duan has been retired for ten years, but at this time, the world is smoking, and this old handsome can't help but go out of the mountain to take a look. In the 798 base in the western suburbs, Wu Da and several military and political leaders were discussing that China's current position is very delicate, although it has a close relationship with Germany, has not ended the state of war with Britain, has not declared war with Lao Maozi for 20 years, and has not broken up with the Americans for 20 years of shaking hands and kicking off the stage, but China has always adhered to its own independent foreign policy. Without joining any organization, Germany, Italy, and Turkey could certainly obtain weapons and ammunition from China, Jews could also take refuge in China, and Americans bought Chinese 105 rapid-fire howitzers that could be consigned to Britain to Prime Minister Dog. The hundreds of 400-mm "Swordfish" aviation torpedoes bought by the Japanese were also used by US warships. As for dual-use materials, China is even more refusal, even if Lao Maozi has real money, he can buy tons of steel and trucks from Iran across the border. So far, except for the British who are passively at war with China, there is really no group in the world that dares to argue with China. Lao Duan was a little surprised that the little devil had the courage to sail thousands of miles to attack Pearl Harbor in the United States, and he won a big victory. "In addition to the capital ships, the Americans have lost two aircraft carriers, and the remaining one, the Enterprise, is estimated to be able to avoid war on the west coast. This year's time depends on how the little devils toss, and if they toss well, they can take down one Alaska plus more than half of Canada's Yukon Territory and Northwest Territories. If there is nothing wrong in strategy, it is estimated that even Alaska will be choked enough, after all, the foundation is too thin. ”
"If you want to say that these gangs are really bold, the Yankees dare to touch their butts." He Laoba is already a retired veteran, but his tone is as heroic as back then, "But I always feel that the Yankees are a bit strange to suffer this time." ”
"What did the old starling say?" Du Zicheng Du Shuai is also the chairman of the National Defense Science and Technology Committee, but most of them are nominal, after all, they will not reach retirement age until next year. "Could it be that the Yankees still have any tricks that can't be done?"
"It's really a bit strange, it stands to reason that Pearl Harbor's defense system is not too backward, the radar is not the color of the British, the full set of our second-generation technology, such a large bomber group is stunned without warning, which is also too strange. Yushuai, what do you see? "Xiao Mingfeng is the youngest, and he has to stay in the position of commander of the strategic forces for five or six years, and he is also the only active field marshal in this class of old brothers.
Wu Ziyu was holding a copy of Xiling Seal Society's Zizhi Tongjian, and when he heard Xiao Mingfeng and Xiao Shuai's question, he put down the book and coughed lightly: "There is indeed something unusual." I've also read the report, and there are a few things that are quite puzzling. First of all, the report mentions that before the attack, the U.S. military suddenly dispatched a large number of medical supplies and medical personnel to Pearl Harbor, and the day before the attack, the day before the attack, the company canceled the next day's vacation and went on combat readiness duty (the day of the attack was a Sunday). ”
"Then there are some unreasonable military movements, in which the US military disperses some fighter jets to small remote airfields before the attack, while the planes that remain at the main airfield are left empty hangars and neatly arranged on the runway, giving the illusion that all the planes are there. After the attack began, the planes that took off for combat took off from small airfields, which also did not conform to the principle of centralized management of the US Air Force. In addition, the night before the sneak attack, the warships at Pearl Harbor had sunk a Japanese miniature submarine that had participated in the sneak attack, and even if this incident did not arouse the vigilance of the US military, then when the Japanese planes flew to Pearl Harbor, the US radar troops stationed at Pearl Harbor reported to their superiors that "a large number of suspicious planes had been discovered." Such information was also negligent. If all this is not the work of the Japanese spy officers, then who made the Japanese so lucky, this hand of God seems to have other intentions. ”
"Yu Shuai is right, I'm afraid that this attack was Zhou Yu hit Huang Gai" Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security He Minhan, who had not appeared for a long time, pushed in from outside the hall and still put a report on the table, "Our intelligence has shown that after the attack, the US military salvaged the sunken warships out of the water at an alarming speed, repaired them in a very short time, and carried out modifications, so that the combat effectiveness of these warships has risen to a new level. You must know that the modification of old warships is very complicated, and the impact of new equipment on warships must be taken into account, when so many warships need to be refitted, it will take several months just for drawings, not to mention the procurement and production of various equipment and materials. But when the warships began to be rebuilt, the workers in Hawaii found that everything was ready-made, including drawings, weapons, and radars, as if they were waiting for the day. It is estimated that in three months, the "California" and "West Virginia" will be salvaged and re-entered into the war. Moreover, the US military also probed the sunken "Arizona" to see if there was any possibility of salvage, but in the end it was considered to give up when it saw that there was really no hope. The "Oklahoma" has been righted and towed, but our intelligence officers believe that even if the repair fluid is not capable of normal combat ability, it is estimated that this time the Yankees will be in vain. The USS Utah was an old battleship launched in 1909, which had been demoted to target ship after most of its armament had been dismantled, so the U.S. military simply gave up and did not save it. Built in 1907, the minelayer USS Oglala is the oldest warship in Pearl Harbor, and it is said that there are seabirds nesting in the chimneys, and naturally the US military will not repair it. So in fact, the final loss of the US military in the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor was only these four capital ships. If we hadn't helped the little devils, Nagumo's good days wouldn't have lasted more than half a year. ”
"So the Japanese army's sneak attack plan, the Pearl Harbor incident was nothing more than Roosevelt's bitter ploy?" Duan Lao also understood, he dared to be a lame man with a ruthless mind, and wanted to use his own military sacrifice to push the United States into the war. Since the founding of China, China has taken the initiative many times, and the people are not resistant to the war, but at that time, the isolationist ideology in the United States was very serious, which made President Roosevelt's many plans to aid Britain, France, Russia and other countries be constrained, and as an outstanding statesman with great foresight, Roosevelt knew very well that if he did not timely assist the anti-German countries such as Britain, France, and Russia that were fighting hard, and when the Axis powers did control the Eurasian continent, the United States would be unable to resist the German, Italian, and Japanese Axis powers that had a solid foundation on their own. What's more, China, a monster of the wilderness, is still colluding with the Germans with bad intentions on the sidelines, and the interests of Britain and Russia are not less divided. Therefore, it is advantageous to enter the war early rather than later, but domestic isolationism is only interested in short-term interests and is unwilling to enter the war. Therefore, Roosevelt did not hesitate to use Pearl Harbor as a way to awaken the people's awakening and hostility and smash the isolationist mentality. At the same time, the Japanese attack must be successful in order to arouse the resolve to crush the isolationists into the war.
Although Japan failed to sink the American aircraft carriers (although the Americans still billed the Japanese submarine forces for the Hornet and Yorktown), it had only a minor military role. Of course, even if Japan sank an American aircraft carrier, it would not be able to help Japan in the long run. The attack completely embroiled the United States and its deep industrial and service economies into World War II, resulting in the loss of the Axis Powers' advantage in the balance of power in the world, and if China did not enter the war at this time, the Axis Powers would only have had the resources to last for about a year, and the subsequent lack of resources would have brought about their inevitable decline.
Although from the point of view of military history, the attack on Pearl Harbor marked a turning point for aircraft carriers and submarines, as well as carrier-based aircraft to replace battleships as the main force of the Navy. The era of decisive battles for large battleships has passed, aircraft carriers have replaced battleships as the new trump cards in naval warfare, and naval aviation has entered the arena of naval warfare as a new decisive force. However, the United States did not understand this point of "victory by air" until the Battle of the Coral Sea and the Battle of Midway.
Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was tantamount to announcing the outbreak of the Pacific War. On December 8, the twentieth year of the First Dynasty, the United States and Great Britain declared war on Japan. American radio repeatedly broadcast: "Pearl Harbor was attacked!" President Roosevelt exclaimed: "This day of great shame must be remembered!" Then, more than 20 countries, including Australia and the Netherlands, also declared war on Japan. On December 21, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States, and the scope of World War II was even expanded.
Now, with the exception of China, which is unilaterally engaged in a military conflict with Britain and Red Russia (Britain does not admit to being at war with China, because if war is declared, the Indian colonies will certainly not be protected, and there will be no way to import supplies from China), almost every major power has been involved in this unprecedented catastrophe, at least which one of the Americans thinks they are innocent.
War is not subject to human will, the scythe of death has been sharpened, and the season of harvesting life has arrived.
