Chapter 1684: The Island Country Stands Aside (Plus Change)

The scene was quite spectacular, on a dark and calm island, all of a sudden, a huge fireball appeared out of thin air, and when this fireball appeared, the night turned into day, and the bright light was enough to cause the human eye to be temporarily blinded.

This fireball spread outward rapidly, crushing everything wherever it went.

On the way, the fighter planes were crushed into pieces the moment they came into contact with the fireball, and then, the oil inside also joined the combustion and turned into new fireballs.

The air waves spread outward, and when they reached the sea surface, the sea quickly set off a series of stormy waves, the waves were dozens of meters high, and all the ships docked in the harbor were overturned.

Almost instantly, the fireball took over the entire island, and a black mushroom cloud rose high, and the sea water was vaporized, emitting puffs of white smoke.

No one could survive such an attack, and at the first moment when the explosion sounded, the pheasant fifty-six and the pilot in front of him, who were surrounded in the air mist of the explosion, almost instantaneously turned to ashes with a heat of thousands of degrees, and the entire plane joined in the combustion.

Then, a powerful shock wave crushed everything on the ground, and other planes, personnel, and people hiding in the building could not survive, and when the shock wave passed, the entire island was wiped out.

At this time, in the group of B-29 bombers returning in the sky, some people witnessed the huge fireball behind, as if it was burning on the ocean, and their hearts were also filled with great excitement, this bombing was finally successful!

Midway, after the islanders tried to occupy this place, as an unsinkable aircraft carrier, it was used to control the entire Pacific Ocean and block the US Navy in the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean, so that the island nation could easily go south to Southeast Asia and obtain the benefits of the whole of Southeast Asia.

The islanders almost succeeded, and when they landed on Midway, they built a base here and stationed fighter planes for more than a month, putting so much pressure on the U.S. Navy that they even struggled to strike the islanders' transport ships.

Now, with the explosion of the bomb, Midway, finally wiped out, no island defenders can survive, and after dawn, the American soldiers will pedal back here.

This way of seizing the islands is quite barbaric, but also quite effective.

The bombing in the Pacific Ocean seems to be only a small operation, but it has brought great gains to the United States, and from then on, the United States no longer has to worry about the threat in the Pacific.

Almost all the capital ships of the navy of the island country have been lost, and now, even the base on Midway Island has been lost, and the balance of war is tilted in favor of the United States!

In the White House, the high-level US officials, who had been waiting for it, were extremely excited after receiving the news.

"After blowing up Midway, we don't have to take the islanders seriously, although we can't bomb the island country on a large scale, we can still hold the Pacific Ocean, and now, our navy can fully deal with the German threat." Nimitz's voice was high.

As a general guarding the Pacific, Nimitz was under a lot of pressure, especially after the loss of Midway, Nimitz barely had a good night's sleep, and now, finally, the threat of the island nation is gone.

"Yes, the islanders no longer have the means to control the ocean, we can leave the islands for the time being and deal with the German threat with all our might." Marshall also came to a conclusion.

In the past, the islanders were the most majestic, and there were several attack aircraft carriers, which were enough to launch a surprise attack, such as Pearl Harbor, which was the case, but after several naval battles, all the islanders' aircraft carriers were sunk, and the rest were escort aircraft carriers, which were dangling around Southeast Asia, even if they said that they came to the Pacific Ocean to find the United States for a decisive battle, it would be absolute nonsense.

Midway, the turning point of the Pacific War, new weapons, too much to promote the war!

"However, we can't let the island nation go unchecked." Arnold said: "If we use China as a base, we can fly to the mainland of the island nation to bomb, and we have also started to develop aerial refueling technology, and our B-29 can meet the round-trip from Hawaii to the mainland of the island country after aerial refueling." ”

In the past, bombing the mainland of the island country was a rather difficult task, and it was necessary to use aircraft carriers to carry B-25s, and take off in the waters near the island country.

At that time, how did the U.S. Navy survive and actually have to go around the island country.

Now, finally no more.

While the island's navy was destroyed by most of its elite in naval battles, the U.S. Navy grew.

Now, the US Navy no longer regards the navies of island countries as enemies, and the air force can still go to trouble the islanders at any time.

The B-29 has a considerable range and can take off from the Huaxia theater, and, on the other hand, they have also developed air refueling technology, in which one B-29 is used as an air tanker to refuel the other B-29, so that the range of the B-29 can be greatly extended and transcontinental flights can be realized!

Although it was prepared for the bombing of the European mainland, it is not bad to bring it in advance now and let the islanders try it.

Roosevelt nodded: "Our main threat is still Germany." Our greatest advantage is the sea, and Germany will not rely on armored forces to win, as on the European continent. As long as we cripple the naval power of the Germans, we will be invincible. ”

Just like now, if the navy of the island country is disabled, the island country will lose its combat effectiveness, and if the German navy is also disabled, then the landing of the Germans across the sea will be just a dream.

Roosevelt was confident that although the east coast of the United States had suffered a serious blow, as long as the plan for the ice aircraft carrier could be steadily advanced and produce results as soon as possible, his side would have hope of victory!

"Our raid in the direction of Europe, I don't know what's going on?" Roosevelt's eyes looked at the map on the wall, and the attack on Midway was just a small-scale bombing, and the bombing of shipyards along the coast of Europe and the destruction of Europe's shipbuilding industry were what Roosevelt was most looking forward to.

"There's no news yet." Arnold said.

As soon as his words fell, he saw an assistant holding a telegram and hurriedly came over: "Urgent information, the Greenland base has suffered a sudden German air raid and suffered heavy losses. ”

In an instant, everyone was stunned.

Every time, in order to bomb Europe, they secretly deployed bombers in Greenland, and they were attacked by German air strikes just after they were deployed?

Where is there such a coincidence, there must be an omission in the intelligence system again!
