Chapter 355: Philippine Campaign (4)
At an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, more fighter jets are entangled. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Japanese carrier-based fighters on the air-holding mission broke out in the fiercest air battle with the U.S. Air Force, which had rushed to support from the central Philippines.
Nearly 200 F4U-converted "Corsairs" and P51 "Mustangs" weaved a web of death with machine guns and cannons over the battlefield filled with gunpowder.
In the tragic aerial dogfight, you chase after me, and some even directly collide with the enemy.
Through the satellite picture, watching the last batch of US fighters in the Philippines being shot down by the Japanese air force one by one, Cheng Gong couldn't help but wonder whether to support a batch of jet fighters similar to the Jian-5 for the US military stationed in the Philippines.
According to intelligence, the Japanese Air Force will soon have a batch of just-built "Gale" jet fighters (F86 Sabre modified Japanese version) into the Philippine battlefield. Although the J-5 has been put into production in the United States, it is obviously impossible to catch up with the Philippine campaign, which is already fighting a white-hot war.
Jiro Horikoshi is one of Japan's most outstanding aircraft designers of modern times. He not only developed a turbojet engine belonging to Japan's independent patented intellectual property rights based on the turbojet Rokko turbojet engine configured with the Qiang-5 B2 carrier-based aircraft, but also absorbed the aerodynamic layout design characteristics of various types of aircraft such as the German ME262 jet fighter and the P51 Mustang fighter, and designed and manufactured an excellent jet fighter whose appearance and comprehensive performance are infinitely close to those of the first-generation American jet fighter F86.
Cheng Gong killed Jiro Horikoshi's Zero fighter, but prompted Jiro Horikoshi to successfully design the first generation of Japanese jet fighters.
I have to say that the inertia of this history is sometimes really great.
Cheng Gong can fully foresee that this jet fighter, which was named "Gale" by Jiro Horikoshi, will definitely be as invincible as the "Zero War" in history in the early stage of the Pacific Theater.
After thinking about it, Cheng Gong finally dispelled this idea.
Only by allowing the Japanese army to eliminate as many living forces of the American army as possible in the Philippines can it be hoped that the confidence of the Japanese army will be further exploded, and the ambition of landing on the US mainland will eventually germinate.
Although the US People's Liberation Army under the leadership of the US Communist Party has now established the Soviet American People's Power in the three southern states of the United States, Cheng Gong knows that once the whole of the United States is transferred to a wartime mechanism, it is only a matter of time before the US Communist forces are eliminated.
Especially with an iron-fisted president like Hoover leading the United States, the capital power that the American capitalists have burst out will definitely be even stronger.
Japan's sudden landing in the Philippines unsurprisingly led to the unanimous adoption of Hoover's declaration of war by the U.S. Congress, and the United States officially declared war on Japan.
On the same day, Japan declared war on the United States, the United States then declared war on Germany and Italy, and the Chinese Kuomintang and the Communist Party jointly declared war on Japan, officially opening the Second World War.
Churchill and de Gaulle, of course, rejoiced.
Hitler, Hirohito, and Mussolini also toasted and celebrated.
Only Comrade Stalin is not happy now.
With the support of Germany, Italy, Bulgaria and other countries, the resistance of the Turkish army to the Soviet Red Army became more and more stubborn, and the progress of the Soviet Red Army advancing towards the Black Sea Straits became slower and slower.
What made Stalin even more depressed was that anti-communist and anti-Soviet forces in Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan had sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the situation in these three countries was getting worse and worse.
Stalin now regrets it somewhat. If he had agreed to Cheng Gong's proposal to form an alliance with the Donghua Empire, he might have disintegrated and divided Turkey by now.
It's just that Stalin definitely can't pull his face down to find Cheng Gong. The only way to do this was to urge the senior generals of the Soviet Red Army to eliminate the Turkish diehards at all costs, and then to quickly transfer their forces to local law and order operations to ensure the stability of the Indian Ocean outlets.
Since Stalin had to slap his swollen face and become fat, Cheng Gong was of course happy to stand by and watch the excitement. Even if Stalin came to beg him now, Cheng Gong would never send a single soldier to Turkey.
Hitler's "Barbarossa" battle plan was about to be launched, and it was obviously not in the interests of the Great Donghua Empire to join forces with the Soviet Red Army at this time.
Let's fight! Let's fight! Let's fight hard!
The more lively you fight, the faster our national industrial system will be upgraded!
From ancient times to the present, war has been the most favorable factor for the development of industry and science and technology.
The large and small industrial and mining enterprises of the Donghua Empire, both state-owned and private, now work in three shifts 24 hours a day, producing orders for all kinds of industrial products from the Allies and the Axis powers.
From toothpaste, toothbrushes, chewing gum, to aircraft, artillery, warships, the least orders undertaken by Donghua enterprises are scheduled until June next year, and the most are even scheduled until the end of the next year.
The wars in Europe, the smoke of gunfire in Asia, and the civil war in the United States caused the immigrant population of the Donghua Empire to increase significantly. Looking at the whole world, it seems that only Oceania, ruled by the Donghua Empire, is the pure land of the world.
After Germany went to war with the Soviet Union, Cheng Gong could calm down and seriously think about letting the Donghua Empire choose when to enter the war and pick peaches.
In this life, the Great Donghua Empire was fully capable of replacing the US imperialists and becoming the largest creditor country after the war.
Now the US imperialists are busy extinguishing the flames of civil war, and the Lend-Lease Act, which was modeled on the Donghua Empire, is basically an empty piece of paper. If the Allies led by Britain and France wanted to receive large amounts of military aid, they could only rely on the Donghua Empire.
Without the entry of US imperialism into the war in Europe, the time for which Germany could hold out in Europe would certainly have been extended.
Germany's limited war resources, as well as the national characteristics of the European countries that refused to unify them, doomed the day when Hitler's Third Reich would not dominate Europe at all.
If Germany wants to plunder more resources in Europe, there is only one way to go, to cooperate with the Soviet Union!
However, with Hitler's hatred of communism, Germany and the Soviet Union could never come together.
Cheng Gong now only needs to sit back and wait for the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, and then he can start planning for the Donghua Empire to replace the United States in the post-war layout in Europe.
Although the current population base of the Donghua Empire is still not sufficient, Cheng Gong has already decided to let the Donghua Royal Navy, Land and Air Force take the elite optimization route. The soldiers of the Donghua Empire who have been strengthened by their bodies will all exist as a king of soldiers!
Under the explosion of thinking of Albert Einstein and Tesla, the research and development process of the military nuclear power and civil nuclear power industries of the Donghua Empire has been rapid, and the core engine development plan of the second-generation military turbofan engine has also been successfully completed.
Tesla's bladeless turbine engine development project, with the support of new materials provided by Cheng Gong, the output power of bladeless turbines is getting larger and larger, and the technology is becoming more and more mature and stable, and it has begun to try military applications.
The Great Donghua Empire has a unique scenery, but the landing and anti-landing operations in the North Luzon of the Philippines have entered a white heat. The Japanese and American sides fought in the dark, and rivers of blood flowed. Soon, the chariots and infantry of both sides were mixed together, and the smell of human blood was everywhere on the battlefield.
The Japanese and American troops who fought for survival under the bloody stimulus were all red-eyed!
