Chapter 1936 multi-point flowering

While the Japanese army in the Chinese theater began to retreat in great strides, the situation in North America took a sharp turn for the worse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Templar's latest chapter

Beginning in late July, with the order of the Japanese army headquarters and the formal implementation of the "August Offensive" formulated by the General Staff Headquarters, the Japanese army attacking from the north to the south of the left, center, and right armies has intensified its offensive at the same time with the arrival of reinforcements.

The Japanese army committed more than 6,000 fighters to the North American theater, many of which were the latest models of Feiyan fighters.

This fighter absorbs the advantages of German fighters, and the main weapon adopts the 20 mm cannon produced by the German MG151 machine gun technology, which is extremely powerful, and is equipped with armor and self-sealing fuel tanks, especially the characteristics of being able to quickly enter a 45-degree dive are better than other fighters, which provides a certain advantage for Feiyan in the encounter with US fighters.

Once bitten by a U.S. fighter jet, the Feiyan can quickly half-roll and dive away. In the North American theater, there were many encounters with advanced fighters produced by the US military using Nanhua aviation technology, and each side won and lost, but because the Japanese pilots were more skilled, the results were far greater than those of the opponents.

Although in the tropics, the hydraulic engine of the Feiyan fighter is difficult to maintain, but in the dry climate of North America, there is absolutely no problem in use, and at the same time, in order to accommodate the large size of the machine gun, a fairing was specially added to the wing, which strengthened the wing structure and became a star model on the North American battlefield.

At the same time, the new generation of Thunderbolt fighters developed by the Japanese army on the basis of US fighters captured on the battlefield has also been put into experiments, and this model almost integrates the advantages of the A29 fighter of the South China Air Force and the P51 Mustang fighter of the US Air Force, and combines the characteristics of Japan's own fighters.

However, An Yi, who learned the news, did not care very much, the Syrian Academy of Aeronautics Research Institute has long given up the study of propeller fighters, a small number of jet fighters equipped with the South China Air Force, after experimental, mixed, and improved types, until the new model, has been upgraded to the fourth generation, and at the same time, radar and guided missile technology has begun to be put on the fighter to enter the actual combat test, and it is completely conceivable that it will be invincible when it is fully put into use.

The United States is an extremely complex country with a wide range of ethnic groups from all over Europe, not to mention blacks, Chinese, Indians, and other Hispanic ethnic groups.

This country, which has only been more than 100 years old so far, has only attacked other countries and frantically expanded its territory and plundered markets and resources since then, and has never been invaded by other countries, covering up many contradictions. Now the Japanese don't care about the difference in strength between the two sides at all, and they are like two stunned people who are going crazy to kill them regardless of it, and everything is in chaos.

Fortunately, since both Chinese countries have joined the Confederate camp, the Chinese have firmly sided with the U.S. government. After the Japanese army landed in Alaska, the Chinese consortium hurriedly organized the relocation of factories, and thanks to the concerted efforts of all the people, these Chinese enterprises are now re-located in the eastern region to resume production and continue to provide war materials to the US government and army.

The situation is most complicated by blacks.

Among the 130 million people in the United States, there are more than 12 million blacks, accounting for 9.7 percent of the total population; like Indians and Latinos, they have always been discriminated against by whites, and they are restricted in housing, education, work, and so on; even after the outbreak of World War II, human resources are tight, and blacks are excluded from the defense industry sector; for example, in a statistic last year, nearly 90,000 people were employed in the aviation industry, only 17 were blacks, and 350,000 were employed in the steel industry. There are 245 black workers, and only 1.7 percent of the shipbuilding industry with the highest proportion of black workers is black, which has created a situation where there is a shortage of workers in the major factories in the United States as the war spreads, but most blacks are still unemployed and have no food and clothing. ("" Net 7*

After the Japanese army attacked the mainland of the United States, the blacks who were bewitched by the Japanese reactionary propaganda rioted many times to protest against the unfair treatment of the US government, which once again aggravated the antagonism between whites and blacks, so when the Japanese army set up a puppet army in the occupied area, blacks enthusiastically signed up to join the army and took the initiative to help the Japanese army manage whites, and a large number of Indians and Latinos who suffered racial discrimination also joined the puppet army, and in just a few months, millions of puppet armies have been armed.

These puppet troops, who were full of prejudice against whites, were very cruel because of their bitter revenge feelings, and as long as there was a local resistance, they immediately went out to suppress bloody, robbed, raped and murdered all kinds of evil, which greatly deterred the resistance of whites in various parts of the occupied areas, resulting in a change in the whites who were fighting in the areas, a large number of whites fled to the east and south, and the Japanese army was able to liberate its forces and continuously put them into the front line to fight.

In the early morning of 12 August, Mexican President Camacho and Kenji Dohihara, the deputy chief of staff of the Japanese army, suddenly appeared in Juarez, a city on the northern border between the United States and Mexico.

Two weeks earlier, at the request of the US Government, 300,000 Mexican troops had assembled in the border areas between the two countries, and the US and Mexican staff departments had even conducted a four-day map operation together, agreeing that as long as the Japanese army moved south from the north to California and Arizona, the Mexican troops would immediately go north and fight hand in hand with the US army to resist the Japanese invasion.

Taking advantage of this build-up, six divisions of Japanese troops quietly landed at ports along the Gulf of California coast and were transported by rail to the long border between the United States and Mexico. Due to the large number of Mexican troops mobilized to cover it, the Japanese army unwittingly entered the U.S. border.

At seven o'clock in the morning, President Camacho suddenly made a radio speech to the whole of Mexico, reviewing the history of Mexico, especially emphasizing the humiliating history of repeated US aggression and subversion since the 1846 American-Mexican War, denouncing the shamelessness of the Monroe Doctrine and the cruel oppression of Mexico and other Latin American countries by the United States, and hoping that the Mexican people and army will unswervingly stand by the side of the government that upholds national sovereignty and national honor, and fight to the end for Mexico's tomorrow!

Finally, Camacho, in his capacity as president of Mexico and the supreme commander of the three armed forces, declared that Mexico and the United States would enter a state of war with immediate effect, which also meant that Mexico officially declared war on the United States.

As early as half an hour before the declaration of war, Mexican Ambassador Rudiwa sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Cordell. Hull handed over the declaration of war, then hurried back to the embassy, disguised himself, and fled to an adjacent neighborhood through a tunnel built into a garden, and then fled the Washington suburbs in a waiting car to return to Mexico to participate in the "holy war" for the liberation of his homeland.

300,000 Mexican troops and almost equal numbers of Japanese troops opened heavy fire on the unsuspecting American troops on the other side of the border, and on the Juarez line alone, thousands of artillery pieces of various types opened fire on the American troops.

Although the United States has built a complete group of permanent fortifications on the U.S.-Mexico border, now that Mexico is its ally, and a number of cooperation agreements have been reached between the two countries, no one expected that the Mexican government would suddenly turn around!

Besides, the front-line officers and soldiers, who wants to lie in the damp fortifications and anti-artillery holes without anything? Therefore, most of the officers and men chose to work and rest normally in the barracks, and the shelling of the Mexican army happened at the time of breakfast, and the consequences were almost catastrophic; in a short period of an hour, nearly half of the more than 60,000 American troops on the American El Paso and surrounding fronts were killed, and by the time the remnants of the American troops entered the position, the Japanese and Mexican coalition forces had already crossed the border, and a tragic battle ensued. ("" Net 7*

After half a day of fierce fighting, the Japanese-Mexican coalition forces, which had an absolute superiority in strength, broke through the defense of the American army and attacked San Diego and Los Angeles in the northwest direction of the border; to the north, attacking the U.S. oil and gas centers of Pecos, Odessa and Hobbs; In the northeast, after capturing the border cities of Laredo, McCarran and Harringen, the Japanese-Mexican coalition forces marched to San Antonio and Corpus Christi respectively, and the entire southwestern states of the United States were quickly plunged into war.

......

Washington, White House.

The last six months have been the most difficult years of Roosevelt's life, and he broke the convention of serving three consecutive terms as president in the midst of the war, ushering in the darkest moment of his life, and now some people have questioned the diplomatic strategy of the United States to stealth behind the scenes when Japan invaded China, ignoring the fact that isolationist sentiment was the mainstream of American society at that time, and Roosevelt was just conforming to public opinion.

Upon receiving alerts from Texas, Western Mexico, Arizona, and California, Roosevelt immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

A short time after the meeting was held, Colonel Bratton of the War Department Intelligence Bureau hurriedly entered the conference room and handed it to the Chief of the General Staff, George Bratton. Marshall sent a telegram, and after reading it, Marshall hurriedly stood up and said anxiously:

"Massive riots in Native Mexicans and immigrants in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and elsewhere, black people inside and outside the city have responded, Hispanic communities have taken the opportunity to loot, the National Guard in the states has fought the rebels, and the state governments have called for help!"

"These immature white-eyed wolves!"

Roosevelt, who was anxious, changed his previous good temper, couldn't help but scold, and then looked at Marshall: "What are you hesitating about?" At this time, we must not condone any act that disrupts social order, and we must go all out to resolutely suppress all disturbances and riots! ”

Marshall nodded, and immediately ordered: "Order the garrisons everywhere, no matter what, to extinguish the rebellion within today, and whoever has a problem will be held responsible!" ”

"Yes!"

As Colonel Bratton received the order to leave, Marshall then reported: "Now that the southwestern states have become the front line, and the positions are in chaos, the Japanese army on the northern front will definitely not give up such a good opportunity, and will definitely increase the intensity of the attack, the situation is very critical!" It is a serious dereliction of duty that the intelligence department did not find out about such a large military movement of the Japanese army in advance! ”

FBI Director Hoover stood up: "The strength of our intelligence services is still a little weaker, especially outside the borders...... In recent times, we at the FBI have focused on the bizarre collapse of heavily defended Chicago to see if there has been any malfeasance in between...... After investigation, it was confirmed that the Japanese army sent paratroopers to attack our biochemical plant in the east of Chicago, resulting in a large-scale poison gas leak covering the whole city and the western defense line.

"According to air sampling and spot checks, the air and water quality in the Lake Michigan area is still heavily polluted, and about tens of thousands of Japanese sappers wear chemical protective suits to disassemble machinery and equipment, transport them to the western region through the east-west railway, and send them to Australia to resume production. In order to stop the Japanese army, our air force and the Japanese air force frequently fought in the skies over this area, but they did not gain air supremacy, and the battle situation is still stalemate! ”

"I know all this, I don't blame you FBI......"

Speaking of this, Roosevelt stroked his forehead: "Chicago has fallen, there is no point in pursuing responsibility, the key at present is to hold the Fort Wayne-Indianapolis-St. Louis defense line, otherwise if the Japanese army is allowed to attack eastward, the military production in the east will be greatly affected......"

Before Roosevelt's words fell, Major General Miles, director of Army Intelligence, walked into the conference room again, Marshall took the telegram and glanced at it, his face changed, and he immediately handed it to Roosevelt:

"This is sent by Major General Milligen, the commander of the Cortura garrison, and now our defense forces on the front line of Laredo have been basically annihilated by the Japanese-Mexican coalition forces, and the city of Cortura, which is on the important route to San Antonio, is less than 20,000 even if you count the National Guard and police, and they ask to blow up the bridge immediately, otherwise it will be too late!"

When Roosevelt heard this, he quickly took the telegram, shook his head and smiled bitterly after reading it: "The Kotula Bridge was built during the New Deal, right?" Unexpectedly, the bridge, which was originally designed to be passable for 100 years, was about to be destroyed in just a few years...... However, in order to resist the invasion of the Japanese-Mexican forces, all the bridges leading to the eastern part of the country had to be blown up, and all the railroad tracks had to be removed...... We can't let the Japanese and Mexicans use our railways to transport troops! ”

Marshall nodded and said to Major General Miles, "Immediately follow the president's advice!" ”

Major General Myers asked with some hesitation: "But there are a large number of civilians who are being evacuated to the eastern region, if these bridges are blown up, won't they be abandoned?" This ......"

At this time, Marshall did not dare to express his position, in case he defeated the Japanese in the future, it would definitely become a major sin to cut off the evacuation of civilians, and Marshall, who also dreamed of going further, did not want to bear any stain on his life, and looked at Roosevelt again.

Roosevelt saw that the fire was getting bigger, and said angrily: "Major General Myers, don't forget that you are a soldier, and at this time, we can only sacrifice the interests of a small number of people to protect the overall situation." If the enemy is not kept in the west, the United States will suffer even greater losses in the future, understand? ”

"Yes, Mr. President!" Major General Myers could not bear the president's wrath and left in a hurry.

Roosevelt looked at Marshall: "Do you have any countermeasures against the Mexicans?" ”

"The Navy has assembled a fleet and is preparing to shell all of Mexico's port cities on the Gulf Coast, while the Air Force has also begun bombing major Mexican cities, blowing up the other side's railways and highways, cutting off their supply routes, and I believe that there will be war reports soon!" ”

Roosevelt's chief of staff and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, William Roosevelt. Admiral Silai said worriedly:

"Mr. President, it's not a way for us to be beaten like this...... As far as I know, the situation on the battlefield in China has changed dramatically, and it is only a matter of time before the Japanese army, which has been defeated in successive battles, will be defeated on the Asian continent, and we will have to find a way to make our allies take more responsibility! ”

"Oh!?"

Roosevelt asked with interest, "Do you have any good ideas, dear William?" ”

William. Xilai nodded and said: "We can send a fleet to bypass Madagascar, which is guarded by the Japanese army, and directly arrive at the east and west banks of the subcontinent or the seaports of Burma, and then carry an elite division of South China to Madagascar to help us fight the Japanese army, as long as we take Madagascar and pull out this nail between us and South China, we can send more troops from the Chinese battlefield to Australia and other battlefields to participate in the war, and then we will be full of life!" ”

When Roosevelt heard this, he was greatly moved:

"This is a good suggestion, and I have also received telegrams from General Stilwell and Chairman Chiang of the Nanking Government...... At present, the South Chinese army and squadron have switched to a counteroffensive on all fronts, and if we can really let the Chinese open up a new battlefield in the rear of the Japanese army, it will undoubtedly be a great thing for us! It seems that we have to send a representative to China as soon as possible to negotiate a settlement of this matter! ”

Under Secretary of State Sumner, who was highly regarded by Roosevelt, was a member of the Mission. Wells, stand up and take the initiative to ask:

"Dear Franklin, let me go to China, and it is better for Prime Minister Churchill to send a representative to China, so that only by seeing with our own eyes the defeat of the Japanese army in Asia can we rest assured, and greatly encourage the determination and courage of the people of the allies to fight to the end! It took the Chinese five years to defeat the Japanese, and we can completely use the same time to defeat the Japanese and the Germans; The second is to sit down and negotiate and see how to deal with the current unfavorable situation! ”

Roosevelt immediately agreed: "Okay, that's it...... If we don't think of a way to let the Japanese continue to go crazy so unscrupulously, we may really be in big trouble! ”

After the meeting adjourned, Roosevelt put Sumner. Wells stayed and gave a face-to-face lecture: "Since he was appointed chief of staff of the Chinese theater, there has been a deep contradiction between General Stilwell and Chairman Chiang of the Nanjing government...... General Stilwell was very angry at Chairman Chiang's practice of preserving his strength, and thought that it was really hateful and hateful that Nanking had five or six million elite troops, but was afraid of less than one million Japanese troops......

According to General Stilwell's secret report, this time it was said that the whole line of counteroffensive, the Kuomintang army still took three steps forward and two steps back, too careful, not at all forge ahead, if according to the practice of the Kuomintang army, it is very likely that the Japanese army in northern China will safely withdraw from China to join other battlefields, so General Stilwell left Nanjing and went to Yan'an in a fit of anger, wanting to leave as many Japanese troops as possible through the hands of the ** army!

"If you go to China this time, it is best to reconcile the contradictions between the two sides, but you can only wronged General Stilwell, and appoint another person to serve as the chief of staff of the Allied forces. In the next big war, we rely on Nanhua and the squadron in many places, especially the battles to recover Southeast Asia, Australia and other places, we have to rely on the squadron! ”

Sumner. Wells nodded:

"I see what the president means...... The British were already bitter about the loss of their colonies in West Asia, the subcontinent, Burma, and Malaya, and if they allowed the South Chinese army to occupy Australia, they would not want to let them give up the territories they had swallowed...... Judging from the situation in many aspects, the Nanking government, which has always had little temper with us, has a great chance of transferring troops back to China in the future in order to deal with the disputes between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party at home, so that Britain can take the opportunity to take back control of Australia and the island of New Guinea! Therefore, it is reasonable that we all need to take care of the emotions of Nanjing! ”

Roosevelt was deeply satisfied with Wells's political wisdom, and continued: "Another reason is that Germany's next target is very likely to be West Asia and South Asia, Persia in West Asia is rich in oil, and South Asia is the most famous granary in the world. In this case, South China will be plunged into a continuous war, and only the Nanjing government, which has no opponent, will be able to spare its hands to help us attack Australia and relieve the pressure we are facing! ”

"Got it!"

Sumner. Wells thought so, and began to think about how to try to achieve President Roosevelt's wishes during his trip to Asia.
