An Yi calmly read all the battle reports and asked, "In this way, the possibility of the Japanese landing is gradually decreasing...... Where is the movement of the Tiger Head's troops? ”

Yang Fei said with a smile:

"It's almost Pyongyang. In fact, there was no suspense in this battle at all, the Japanese army had the advantage of the home field, and the strength was far superior to today, and it was still not the opponent of our army. Even if the opponent lands, under the blows of our army's follow-up troops, it will only be wiped out! ”

An Yi nodded: "Having said that, we still have to make all emergency preparations...... What about the Western Front? ”

"The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings!"

Deng Bin took over and said, "The Germans are still performing hard...... In the early hours of yesterday morning, the Germans parachuted the Isle of Wight, and then under the cover of their aircraft carrier formation, about a division of German troops crossed the English Channel and landed on the Isle of Wight. From yesterday to today, the Allies dispatched about 4,000 warplanes, the German side dispatched more than 5,000, and the entire English Channel was completely enveloped in war!

"Fearing the Germans' landing, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill had distributed all his stockpiles of weapons, proclaimed on the radio that 'Britain had no way out,' and called on all Britons to fight to the death. Now, up to sixty or seventy-year-old people, down to **-year-old children, have all begun to practice how to shoot, and the whole of England has been filled with pessimism and disappointment! ”

"Such a good opportunity has been wasted...... An Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This Hitler is really ...... How can you say that he is good? Being too stubborn, doing things with a tendon, as long as you recognize the right things, you will continue to do them, without considering the consequences...... If it were me, I would definitely have completely pacified the USSR first, and it would be impossible to leave such a big tail there, and Stalin would have turned the tables at any time...... Even if you want to open up a second battlefield, you should attack from afar and closely, and first solve the elbow problem of Britain.

As long as the Luftwaffe continues to maintain its suppression of the British Isles, then Germany's navy, which is inferior to Britain, can unscrupulously pass through the English Channel, cover the transport fleet, and land on the British Isles...... As long as Germany takes the British Isles, it can ensure that the Western Front is safe, and whether it continues to encircle and suppress the Soviet Union or start a war with us, there are many fewer hidden worries.

"It's good now, Hitler is staring at our Persian Gulf and subcontinent, coveting our oil fields and grain producing areas, and is ready to take advantage of the east wind of defeating the Soviet Union to pursue the victory, and win enough foundation and living space for Germany to develop for hundreds of years...... By the way, how many German troops have died in battle since the attack on the USSR to the present? ”

Liu Qing did not hesitate at all, and immediately replied: "According to the data of previous wars, about 2.5 million people were killed in battle, accounting for about 5 percent of the total population of Germany. ”

An Yi shook his head again: "Look, although Germany still looks so strong, as long as they throw away another two and a half million troops in front of our iron wall, the lack of troops will immediately manifest itself." The problem of the Germans is that the front is too open, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and other places occupy too many troops, and when their forces are strong, the European countries will naturally surrender, but if the slightest defeat is revealed, the whole of Europe will boil!

"On the other hand, we have always fought a good war, and the territory included in the territory was previously a colony or a sparsely populated place, coupled with the wanton massacre of the invaders, the indigenous population is extremely sparse. Through continuous emigration, we have gained the absolute upper hand in the proportion of Chinese, and then we have established governments at all levels and established strong public security and armed police forces, so that there is no need to send additional troops in the localities, on the contrary, these areas will continue to provide us with troops and various materials, and become our consolidated rear.

"Every time we absorb a piece of land, we immediately turn it into our help, and the Germans need to constantly divide their forces, and in this case, Hitler wants to hit us with his good calculations, which is really blind to his dog's eyes!"

Yang Jie took over the conversation: "During this time, I was also trying to figure out Hitler's psychology, from the perspective of Germany, giving up landing on the British Isles and taking the initiative to attack us is indeed a bad move, but at the level of the confrontation between the entire Axis and the Allies, it is a move that Hitler can't help but make!"

"Now that Japan has opened up the American theater, the Americans are too busy to take care of themselves, the former world boss Britain is exhausted, and with the fall of India, the Middle East, Australia and Western Canada, Britain has actually been reduced to a supporting role.

"Since sooner or later there will be a war, it is better to fight late than early, once we fully digest the Japanese industrial bases in the Northeast, the Far East and the Dahan Peninsula, the production capacity will inevitably be greatly increased, which is definitely not good news for Germany! Therefore, Hitler desperately wanted to start a war, as long as he defeated us, with grain from Ukraine and the subcontinent, oil from Persia and Baku, coal from Donbass and iron from India, the victory of the Axis would be just around the corner, and it was only a matter of time before the United States, without foreign aid, announced its surrender. ”

Zhao Dongquan asked: "Didn't Hitler think about the serious consequences of defeat?" ”

Yang Jie smiled faintly: "For a madman, there is no such word failure in the dictionary!" Successes in adventure after adventure have made Hitler develop an arrogant character that looks at everything, and although he has reformed the political system in Germany under his leadership, it is still in the direction in which he is driving the German chariot forward! For Hitler, it was enough to see the benefits of victory, and nothing else was in his mind! ”

"This military operation of the Japanese army seems to have the intention of echoing the German performance!" Liu Yu analyzed: "The so-called coming without being rude, I suggest a large-scale air raid on the Japanese archipelago!" ”

An Yi nodded: "Let's first wipe out the little devil's expeditionary fleet cleanly, and then make an air raid on the Japanese archipelago that makes them remember, then recover Hainan Island and Ceylon, and finally land in Madagascar. ”

All the generals showed excitement on their faces, and their eyes couldn't help but turn to the northeast direction on the map.

......

Yingkou, after passing through the minefield and entering the range of the battleship, all the Japanese battleships, cruisers and destroyers opened fire together, and the high-speed battleships of the "King Kong" and "Haruna" as the protagonists burst out with dazzling light, a total of 16 twin 356 mm/45 times caliber main guns, 28 152 mm/50 times the caliber secondary guns spit out a rain of bullets, and one after another huge shells with a palpitating roar, smashed down fiercely above the west fort in Yingkou.

The Japanese abacus played well, most of the forts and fortresses in Yingkou were built or reinforced by the Japanese, and they knew all the gun positions well, and they only needed to hit them according to the direction in their memory, and such a fierce artillery fire was enough to make the opponent collapse. However, they did not know that since the capture of Yingkou at the end of August and the capture of Lushun and Dalian in early September, the artillery positions in these places have been reinforced by the engineering units of the Anjia Army, and the terrain of the fortress has also been changed to a certain extent by pouring reinforced concrete.

The Japanese army did not know that at this moment, at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, three airship radars had locked the entire battlefield, and at the same time, in the fortress and the surrounding area, four vehicle-mounted sea-to-sea search radars were constantly rotating, and the radar network built from heaven to earth locked the location of the Japanese warships, and everything about the Japanese fleet was not a secret to the An Jiajun at all.

At the Yingkou West Battery, all the artillery was ready, and all kinds of guns with a caliber of more than 203 mm captured from the Japanese army were aimed at the Japanese giant ships, and the guns of 150 mm and below were aimed at the small and medium-sized warships, transport ships and landing ships of the Japanese army.

All the guns were based on the data sent by the radar, and the gunners adjusted the firing elements, and the black muzzles locked onto their targets.

With Yang Guan's order, the West Fort suddenly erupted into a thunderous roar, and the heavy artillery hidden by one door let out a shocking roar, and scarlet fireballs continued to fly out from the fortress. With the radar's instructions, the fortress guns hit fast, accurate and ruthless, the fortress guns of the Yingkou Fort were equipped with the 305 mm fortress guns customized by the Japanese army, eight huge cannons were fired together, the huge shells flew out of more than ten nautical miles, five of them missed and became near-misses, and the other three fell almost vertically on the deck of the "King Kong" battle patrol that burst out in front, directly penetrated the thick armor, and exploded in the cabin.

This was followed by more than a dozen 240-mm and 203-mm high-explosive shells that hit the "King Kong".

Almost instantly, the superstructure and turret of the battleship with a standard displacement of 31,720 tons immediately became in disarray, and more than 400 sailors on board were killed in this round of shelling, another 300 were wounded, and the remaining more than 500 sailors, who did not dare to fight, hurriedly drove the battleship back to the rear.

At this time, no one noticed that more than a dozen torpedo planes and bombers had begun to repair the access to the minefield, and the narrow waterway cleared by the minesweepers was rapidly disappearing.

In the face of such fierce artillery fire, the Japanese army was shocked, and they never expected that the other side would be able to hit so accurately in the dark night.

Tsukahara 243, who was watching the battle with a telescope outside the minefield, was smiling at first, but with the continuous sound of shelling from the direction of Yingkou, the entire fleet was shrouded in artillery fire, and he suddenly realized that the other side was probably equipped with an advanced sea search radar, and his heart once again had the idea of retreating, but the telegraph contact was interfered with by strong radio waves, and he could not send or receive telegrams at all.

In the dark night sky, dark red bullet marks continued to whizz across the sea, like meteors in the sky, rushing towards the direction of the Japanese fleet.

The fortress guns deployed on the various gun emplacements of the West Battery constantly sprayed projectiles and landed around the Japanese fleet, and columns of water rose up on the sea.

Not long after the "King Kong" withdrew, a destroyer of more than 1,000 tons was hit by two 240-mm shells one after another, and the destroyer suddenly burst into flames and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

Suddenly, on the left flank of the fleet, the heavy cruiser "Aoba", which was dodging shells, was able to dodge the attack of shells, but accidentally rushed into the minefield, three or four mines exploded together, and a loud "boom" sound came one after another, this heavy cruiser with a full load displacement of 10,822 tons, the main armor of the port side waterline with a thickness of 76 mm was torn in an instant, and the sea water surged into it from the breach, and it was too late to even rescue it to turn over to the bottom of the sea.

A destroyer rushed to rescue the sailors of the "Aoba" overboard, who knew that a row of shells fell, the destroyer's front turret was shot, and then a loud bang came, the turret turned into a fireball, and then another shell hit the bridge, the destroyer was immediately broken into two, quickly sank into the sea, and became the martyr of the heavy cruiser "Aoba".
