Chapter 425: Submarine Secret Battle

Roosevelt suddenly sensed that he had made an extremely serious mistake, a mistake that was almost fatal. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info(.. )

Under such a heavy encirclement, the Hainan army landed directly on the island of Taiwan without any movement. It is clear that this can only be done by means of submarines.

Roosevelt paced back and forth in the room, thinking that if this was the case, all the U.S. layouts in the Taiwan Strait would be meaningless.

It can almost be said that the US military operation in the Taiwan Strait has now failed.

Roosevelt stopped at his desk, and he suddenly received a report from the Ministry of Military Industry yesterday that the US submarine carrying artillery had been successfully tested.

Today, a submarine has been built to test the water and passed various performance tests, and this submarine is currently used as a training submarine in the training base.

Roosevelt immediately picked up the report and said, "Mr. Minister, we should still have hope of victory!" ”

Taft didn't know what was going on, and Flatford looked lost and excited for a moment, and said, "Are you all right, Mr. President, you may be too tired, you should take some medicine and rest." ”

Roosevelt ignored Taft and continued to say excitedly: "Immediately contact the Ministry of Military Industry to transfer the military submarine used for teaching and testing to the Taiwan Strait. ”

Taft then understood why Roosevelt's mood was so abnormal, it turned out that he was this thing.

Roosevelt said: "The reason why the Hainan army was able to land on the island of Taiwan without knowing it was because they had submarines that could transport the strength of two divisions to the island so quickly."

If we want to win this war, we must beat this trump card in the hands of the king of Hainan.

As far as I know, at present there is not a single country in the world that has successfully developed a submarine loaded with artillery. They also disdained to use such weapons, since they had dreadnoughts.

Now, we must quickly integrate this submarine into the battle sequence of the US fleet and silently kill the transport submarines of the Hainan Fleet under water. Let the two Hainan infantry divisions that entered Taiwan this time become lone and deep without reinforcements, trapping them on the island.

Finally, when our Atlantic Fleet arrives in the Taiwan Strait, we can force the Hainan army to withdraw from Taiwan. ”

After receiving President Roosevelt's instructions, Taft quickly contacted the US Department of Industry and ordered them to transfer the newly developed "Titan" military submarine to the Taiwan Strait and incorporate it into the combat sequence of the US Far East Fleet.

At this moment, it was 3 March, and the South Pacific Fleet, the Far East Fleet, and the Japanese Combined Fleet of the United States were getting less and less supplied, and the officers and men of the fleet were already panicking on a large scale, and the fresh water in the ships could only be supplied for one more day, and they urgently requested the US Department of Defense to replenish the fleet.

Taft immediately set about organizing supplies and sent two transport and supply ships, together with the "Titan" and two other transport submarines, loaded with military supplies, to the periphery of the Taiwan Strait.

The Hainan fleet has been controlled by the Hainan fleet in all the passages leading to the Taiwan Strait on the sea, and they have no choice but to call in these two transport submarines to try to transport supplies from under the surface to the US fleet around the Taiwan Strait.

When the two submarines, loaded with military supplies, passed under the surface of the sea where the Hainan Fleet was located, they were intercepted by six military submarines of the Hainan Fleet.

Before being captured, the two US submarines gave feedback to the United States about their scenario, and under the surface of the Taiwan Strait, there were six large submarines, loaded with large-caliber guns, each carrying 10 torpedoes, and their attack capability was amazing.

If the Hainan army wants to attack the US South Pacific Fleet and the Far East Fleet, they only need to use these six submarines to sink all these two fleets under water, and our fleet will not even be able to find the target of the attack.

When the White House received this telegram, it was like a bomb, and they were glad that the king of Hainan was merciful enough, and that the king of Hainan could destroy the South Pacific Fleet and the Far East Fleet of the US army more than a dozen times with their three fleets and six attack submarines in the Taiwan Strait.

When Taft learned of the telegram, he told Roosevelt: "There is an old Chinese saying that fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and I think we should rejoice, Mr. President, that our fleet is still intact in the Taiwan Strait, and that it is time to announce the withdrawal of our troops." ”

At this time, an urgent telegram came from the "Titan", they were already under attack by six submarines from the Hainan fleet, and they tried to fire on these six submarines.

However, the caliber of the guns carried by these six submarines was almost twice the caliber of their guns. Because the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great, they can only regretfully give up resistance.

In addition, at the end of the telegram, the "Titan" incidentally reported that two US transport submarines had also been intercepted and had now been captured by the Hainan fleet.

Roosevelt's telegram, shaking his head regretfully, said to Taft: "The King of Hainan is the most difficult opponent I have ever met in my life, and his wisdom is incomparable to us.

Mr. Minister, I feel that I am no longer able to do so in the presidency of the United States, and that my term of office is coming to an end, and I would strongly recommend you as the next President of the United States.

Sun is not hateful, Fang Yang is not the queen, and the ball is secretly cool

If you sit in this position, please remember that on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean, in that ancient country, an awakened person has been born, and this person will lead their Chinese nation to a great rejuvenation in the years to come!

Living in the same era as this king of Hainan, I feel sad and excited at the same time, sad that my dream of American politics will never come true!

I am excited to have a vivid battle with such an opponent, although I am still honored, I have no regrets about this experience. ”

Taft had never seen President Theodore Roosevelt, a powerful man, say such a thing, and he was shocked that he had such a high opinion of the king of Hainan, the leader of a regional military force.

Taft asked Roosevelt for instructions: "Your Excellency President, will our military operations in the Taiwan Strait continue to confront the Hainan Fleet and wait for reinforcements from our Atlantic Fleet, or will we announce our withdrawal from the Taiwan Strait and reverse our intervention in the process of handover in the Taiwan Strait?" ”
