Chapter 650: The Assault Ends

Wang Liang smiled and fiddled with the radio, he did not choose the band of the American station, but chose a Japanese radio station. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I am afraid that the Americans are busy right now, but the Japanese, I am afraid, will not be able to suppress this joy and spread this exciting news to the whole country and the whole army as soon as possible.

This is definitely a new spiritual sublimation for all the Japanese soldiers. The war was full of unprecedented fanaticism.

On the radio, the Japanese announcer preached according to the script that had been written long ago. The style of the announcer of Xian TV is no different, impassioned.

"At 8:02 the battleship Nevada began firing at the aircraft attacking from the starboard side. Two planes were shot down. The stern of the Nevada was hit by a torpedo. The Nevada was the only battleship that tried to escape Pearl Harbor, but it had to run aground on the beach after being shot multiple times to prevent the hull from sinking. ”

"The KGMB radio station has suspended its program and called on all servicemen to return to their posts."

"The front ammunition depot of the battleship Arizona exploded, the Arizona sank in 9 minutes, and 80% of the crew was killed."

......

8:12: Hawaii Supreme Commander Walter Short reports to the entire Pacific Fleet and Washington: "The battle with Japan began with an attack on Pearl Harbor. ”

Hearing this, Wang Liang sighed, Lao Mei was still too proud, and he didn't fully react until 8:12.

At the same time the US White House.

Roosevelt and his group of aides did not seem to look good, and Wang Liang's previous prediction miraculously appeared, and what made people feel even more incredible was that their accuracy was highly consistent.

"Order the nearest aircraft carrier and formation, immediately rush to Pearl Harbor to support, and don't let a damn Japanese go!" Roosevelt gritted his teeth and gave orders, and as the supreme commander of the army, he had full possession of this power.

Although Britain and the United States had been strengthening their defense forces in the Pacific, the leadership at the highest level had always believed that even the most belligerent militarists would not dare to attack Britain and the United States at the same time, due to a serious misunderstanding of Japan's national psychology, economic predicament, and military power balance.

Due to the paralyzing mentality, the US military is quite lax in its combat readiness. This is also one reason for the huge losses caused by the attack.

At this moment, Roosevelt was also not particularly nervous, thinking that this was just a test by Japan, and he did not expect that more serious incidents would happen later, which was beyond his understanding of the island nation of Japan.

In stark contrast to President Roosevelt, Wang Liang, who was leisurely sipping melon seeds and listening to the radio, was able to make up the battle scenes on Pearl Harbor at this moment with his understanding of history and the documentaries he had watched.

"8:17: The U.S. destroyer USS Helm is the first U.S. ship to begin an attack on a Japanese submarine sailing into Pearl Harbor."

"8:26: Fire brigades in Honolulu report three dead and six wounded (possibly shot by an aircraft cannon)."

"8:50: Second wave attack commander gives the order to attack."

"8:54: The second wave begins. 54 bombers and 78 dive bombers of the Imperial Japanese Army attacked, and 36 fighters seized air supremacy. ”

"9:15-9:45: Our kamikaze special forces attacked with dive bombers, and the US ships were crushed."

"9:30: Attack the ships outside the harbor and north of the island, everything is under the control of our troops."

"9:45: Begin to weaken the offense, switch targets."

"10:00: The first wave of planes of our imperial army safely returned to the fleet parked 180 nautical miles north of the island, and the losses were almost zero."

"At the end of the battle, the Imperial Japanese Army, under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, inflicted heavy losses on the U.S. Navy in the Pacific.

Hearing this, Wang Liang turned off the radio station, he didn't want to listen to this Japanese announcer anymore and continue to beep.

Wang Liang has already experienced the sour feeling of Lao Mei being beaten, Wang Liang has no good impression of Japan and the United States, a dog-eat-dog battle, Wang Liang, the melon-eating masses, is enjoying it.

It's just that what makes Wang Liang even more curious is what Roosevelt's mood is at this moment, and I don't know if he is so angry that he gets up from the wheelchair.

In fact, let Wang Liang analyze this battle, the Japanese army is full of loopholes, and the plan design is very rubbish.

First, the Japanese army mistakenly targeted aircraft carriers. The battle plan for the attack on Pearl Harbor was first formulated by Japanese pilot Minoru Genda, and because he insisted that the focus of the attack should be on the US aircraft carriers, he used 90 bombers as the main force for the first attack when formulating the plan. 411 torpedo attack planes attacked the anchorage of the aircraft carrier and the battleship in two directions. The key to the first attack is to achieve suddenness, after which the US anti-aircraft fire will inevitably begin to react. The second wave of attacks will be launched in an hour's time, and the mission is to wait for an opportunity to blow up and sink the carrier. However, what Minoru Genda never expected was that the American aircraft carrier was not in the port at all.

Second, the Japanese scheduled the attack on Sunday morning. On this day of the week, nine out of ten American soldiers are not in the cabin, but spend Sundays all over Hawaii, otherwise the losses of the American army will be very heavy.

Thirdly, the Japanese only bombed the ships and not the docks. If the dockyard is blown up, the only remaining US ships will have nowhere to moor, and there will be nowhere to repair the large number of damaged ships.

Fourth, Japan did not blow up the oil in the mountains five miles beyond Pearl Harbor. Under the circumstances, even a single Japanese fighter flew there and could blow them up to the ground. If this is the case, all the ships and planes of the US military will be reduced to a pile of scrap metal that cannot be moved.

Thinking about it, Wang Liang took out a cigarette and lit it.

Suddenly I felt a creepy feeling, the Japanese army's plan was full of loopholes, full of flaws, as long as a discerning person would definitely be able to see through, and the reaction of the US military was even more shocking, this could not be deliberately performed by the Americans, right?

If this is the case, then the Americans are really terrible, and the purpose of the Americans is to participate in this war in the name of justice.

The attack on Pearl Harbor was a brilliant victory in the short and medium term, far beyond the farthest imagination of its planners, and a rare result in the entire history of warfare.

For the next six months, the U.S. Navy was insignificant in the Pacific theater, with the Japanese dominating.
