readx;?“ Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, Members of the Senate and House of Representatives,

Yesterday, 3 December 1936 — a day of shame that must always be remembered — the United States of America was subjected to a sudden and deliberate attack by the Navy and Air Force of the Republic of China. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe United States and China live in peace, but this time, the Chinese army brazenly attacked us in Japan, a country in the far allies, without being dissuaded.

Our Pacific Fleet, stationed at our base in Hawaii, was ordered to sail to Japanese waters in order to protect the lives and property of our expatriates and businessmen in Japan.

However, without any warning, the submarine forces of the Chinese Navy brazenly launched an attack on our Pacific Fleet.

&nb{pig} Pig Island{small} said 3w.; Serious damage is currently being done to our Pacific Fleet forces. I regret to tell you that many Americans have lost their lives as a result.

This is the greatest provocation and harm to our country, to our people, and the great United States of America must not hold back its anger and ignore the loss of nearly 10,000 heroic young officers and soldiers without indifference.

I think what I said should express the will of the people and the Congress, and we must fight back against it, and our armed forces must teach the Chinese the deepest and most serious lesson. Just three hours after the main force of his Pacific Fleet suffered a heavy blow in the waters northeast of Japan, Lame Law delivered his elaborate prepared speech to the Senate, the House of Representatives, and various telegraphs throughout the United States.

The Americans, who did not know the truth, were indignant, and the vast majority of them chose to support the government in waging war against the Chinese army.

In the Diet, the vast majority of members of the Senate and House of Representatives also voted yes.

Five hours later, the Americans officially declared war on the Chinese army.

Roosevelt declared the nation a state of war, and America's vast war machine began to work.

Of course, with the main forces in the Pacific almost completely lost, the United States has very few troops available in Asia.

It will take time to draw reinforcements from Europe and North America.

Therefore, the desperate struggle between China and Japan in the Japanese archipelago continued.

……

Kitakyushu, the former enemy headquarters of the national army.

Jiang Baili took a telegram with a solemn face and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Chairman of the Committee." The Yankees have declared war on us. ”

"Well, Roosevelt was really prepared." Zhang Xinghan withdrew his gaze from the map, turned his head and said: "Inform Xue Yue to strengthen the defense of Taiwan, the Penghu Islands, and our southeast coast, in case the Americans directly attack our mainland."

In addition, Wang Yunhai was informed to dispatch half of the submarine force to the South China Sea to assist Xue Yue in defending China's coastal defense.

The other half of the submarines continued to pursue the remnants of the U.S. Pacific Fleet cruising in the eastern Pacific. ”

Jiang Baili instructed a communications staff officer to go and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Commission, we must end the war in the Japanese archipelago as soon as possible." Then, we will concentrate our navy, army, and air force to build a joint defense line of land, sea, and air in the Japanese archipelago, the Ryukyu archipelago, the Taiwan archipelago, and the Korean Peninsula.

Rely on this line of defense to withstand retaliatory counterattacks from the Americans. ”

"Well, a month, we must end the war in the Japanese archipelago within a month." Zhang Xinghan nodded thoughtfully: "Order a frontal attack on the troops, and before it gets dark tomorrow, you must crush the Japanese army in Shimonoseki and break through its defensive line." Advance the front to the Hiroshima Line. ”

"It shouldn't be a big problem, the armored forces have all landed, and although the Japanese continue to increase their troops at Xiaguan, they lack armored forces that can effectively compete with our tank troops." Jiang Baili said.

…………

The front line of the battlefield in Shimonoseki City.

Wang Yizhe, commander-in-chief of the dispatch army stationed in Japan, and Huang Xiansheng, commander-in-chief of the North China Front, both crossed the Guanmen Strait. Go to the front line to direct the hundreds of thousands of elite main forces of the Chinese Army that have landed.

At this time, the more than 300,000 elite troops stationed in Japan had basically all landed.

Several tank and armored divisions formed an armored army, which gathered more than 500 No. 4 tanks and hundreds of thousands of infantry to launch a fierce all-out offensive against the Japanese defense line near Shimonoseki Ji.

Large groups of Katyusha rockets poured tens of thousands of tons of steel shells on the Japanese positions. Turn the Japanese positions into a sea of fire purgatory.

After the Chinese army launched no less than 20 rounds of fierce attacks, the Japanese positions were already covered with blood and pestles, mountains of corpses and blood.

Although the attack of the Chinese army was blocked. But the Japanese also paid extremely heavy casualties.

On December 4, the Chinese army, in coordination with the air force Xuezhu, finally broke through the Japanese defensive position in Xiaguan, and the Japanese army, which had been on the verge of collapse for a long time, was defeated in an instant.

Rushing to the mountain pass, the area around the defense house retreated in a hurry.

In one day, the mechanized attack force of the Chinese army successively conquered the county towns of Meiyun, Yamada and Onoda.

The front line of troops is straight to the line between Hiroshima and Yamaguchi.

At the same time, on the battlefield of Shikokushima, the Chinese army, under the command of Xing Zhanqing and others, also successfully defeated the Japanese defenders in Hachimanhama, Uwajima, Sumao, Tosakiyo, Shimanto and other places, and captured all the above-mentioned areas.

Began to march towards the central part of Shikoku Island, including Matsuyama and Kochi.

Due to the special geographical environment, especially when the Japanese army lost its sea and air supremacy, it was impossible to obtain a steady stream of reinforcements from Honshu Island.

Therefore, when the northern coastal defense line was broken through by the Chinese army, the Japanese defenders on Shikoku Island were already greatly damaged, and the Chinese army swept Shikoku Island.

Within two or three days at the latest, Xing Zhanqing's mechanized troops will be able to sweep across the entire territory of Shikoku Island with the assistance of the air force.

…………

At the same time that the frontal battlefields such as Shikoku Island and Honshu Island had achieved initial victories and were steadily advancing.

The Navy's Third Fleet, commanded by Wang Tiehan, has finally made progress on the battlefield in Tokyo.

After inflicting a large number of casualties on the Japanese soldiers and civilians, the elite troops in the east of the city finally broke through the Japanese city defenses and entered the city.

But the bad thing is that more than 20,000 devil reinforcements from the direction of Sendai and the surrounding area of Tokyo City also arrived.

As a result, the 20,000-plus national army detour troops that had just cleared the way through bloody slaughter all the way to the predetermined position and completed the encirclement of Tokyo in the northeast and due north of Tokyo had to draw a considerable amount of troops to go on the defensive in order to block the Japanese reinforcements.

Wang Longxiang's two airborne regiments were also counterattacked by a large number of Japanese troops, although the airborne regiments repelled the Japanese troops with sophisticated equipment and skilled battlefield experience, and caused a large number of casualties.

But they had to stop and go on the defensive, and it was quite a simple two-sided defense, because the news from the air force that Japanese reinforcements from the direction of Nagoya were not far away.

ps: I'm frozen in the waist.,Soreness can't even stand up.,Lying on the bed to code out this chapter.,I hope that tonight's sleep can get better.,If there's no accident.,Tomorrow's four more compensation.。

It was also informed that tomorrow should be able to end the Battle of Tokyo and officially enter a new chapter, World War II. (To be continued......)
