Just when An Yi was distressed by the war situation in the Americas, the Ordnance Research Institute of the Syrian Academy of Research and Poor came with good news that the "Falcon" IV anti-ship missile was officially developed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After hundreds of experiments and repeated calculations on electronic computers, it has been proved that this missile, which adopts autonomous control and automatic guidance ground fire control system guidance, has a target capture probability of as high as 99 percent and a self-guided hit rate of 92.8 percent, and can already enter the practical stage.

An Yi didn't deliberately remember the specific number, he only knew that once this kind of missile with a total weight of three tons, a warhead weighing 550 kilograms, and a speed close to the speed of sound appeared, within a range of 100 kilometers to 20 kilometers, the existing warships would face an embarrassing situation, and the warships' naval guns would no longer be able to exert their due power, because outside the range, these warships would be fatally hit, and the way of naval warfare would be completely changed.

Even if it is a fighter plane taking off from an enemy aircraft carrier, as long as the warship is equipped with the "Houyi" 4 type air defense missile, it can achieve perfect air defense with the cooperation of radar, so that a fleet can truly be both offensive and defensive, and it is impregnable.

An Yi was overjoyed and immediately issued instructions: Go all out to develop a new type of missile destroyer, and carry all the "Falcon" I anti-ship missiles and "Houyi" 4 anti-aircraft missiles on board; at the same time, we must draw lessons from the Americans' defeat in naval battles and strengthen the training of radar operators; in particular, the officers and men responsible for sea and air search radar operations must always heighten their vigilance, and they must be able to discover their opponents one step ahead of the enemy, so as to gain enough time for counterattacks.

The situation in Central America is much worse than An Yi imagined his nose to be bad.

While the Japanese army was passing through Costa Rica and heading north toward the Nicaraguan border, the U.S. military had already sent two newly formed divisions to land in Puerto Cabezas on the east coast of Nicaragua and Puerto La Ceba in northern Honduras.

But by this time, the strength of the Japanese army had been strengthened again.

On 15 July, the 43rd Infantry Division of the U.S. Army, attempting to recapture the Colombian capital, Santa Fe Bo Ca, fell into the encirclement of the Japanese 36th and 1st O3rd Divisions and two special divisions and brigades as it marched to the Ocaña Pass between the Central and Eastern Cordillera Mountains.

Because the Japanese army destroyed the US air bases in Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, Guyana, Peru, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Honduras at the first time, while Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, and other countries strictly maintained neutrality, US fighters were unable to find a foothold in Latin America and had to set up airfields in Caribbean island countries to support their own troops.

The air forces of the two countries fought a fierce air battle over Colombia, and because of the outstanding skills of the Japanese pilots, the rookie pilots of the US military could not parry, and the fighters suffered heavy losses, so they had to send fighters from the country to the Caribbean several times for reinforcements.

At dusk that afternoon, the Japanese army's encirclement and annihilation battle officially began.

Under the command of Lieutenant General Jing Seki, commander of the 36th Division, the Japanese army launched an all-out attack.

Among them, the 222nd Wing of the 36th Division made a detour to Ocaña from the right flank, and after defeating the American troops in front of it, it quickly penetrated into the junction of the American defense line, disrupting the operational deployment of the American troops and cutting off the communication between the regiments. The 223rd Wing attacked from the left flank and returned to the rear of the American line at 5 a.m. the next morning, cutting off the retreat of the American troops.

The main forces of the 224th Wing and the 1st Q3rd Division, which were attacking from the front, with the cooperation of the "Pig Assault" Special Attack Division, were able to complete the frontal compression of the US troops at 11 a.m. the next day.

The U.S. troops were stunned by the sudden attack, and they always thought that the goal of the Japanese army was to cross the Panama Canal and march to the American mainland, and they had no idea that there would be two divisions of Japanese troops ambushing them.

In the view of the US commander, it is only necessary to withdraw to the dense area of the water network in the north, because the complex terrain structure is not conducive to the deployment of large forces, and then they can smoothly break away from the engagement with the Japanese army, return to the Victorian hilly area and the Brazilian highlands, confront the Japanese army, and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

However, the U.S. military still underestimated the determination of the Japanese army to fight a war of annihilation, and in the rout, the U.S. army was ambushed by the "Sakura Huā" special brigade, and the Japanese 223rd Wing had blocked the retreat of the U.S. army.

The general attack began at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the battle lasted until the evening of the same day, when the 43rd Infantry Division of the US Army was completely annihilated, and more than 7,000 of the 15,000 officers and men were taken prisoner, and almost all the rest were killed in battle, and countless guns, ammunition, and transport vehicles were captured.

This battle was the second infantry division of the U.S. military to be eliminated by the formation, and it had a great impact on Latin American countries. Reminiscent of the myth of "invincibility" created by the Japanese army in the Philippines, Hawaii, and Australia, the Latin American people were shaken in their confidence in the United States and sent diplomats to contact the Japanese army.

When the Japanese army occupied Indochina, the East Indies, Hawaii, the Philippines, and Australia, they plundered a large number of British charts and dollars, and now they have landed in Central America, and they have taken control of government coffers and banks in Colombia, Panama, and other countries.

The Japanese army took the initiative to participate in this "just" war by bribing the leaders of the ** factions and guerrillas of various countries, and in less than half a month, it had already raised more than 50,000 armed groups composed of bandits, pirates, and vagrants.

These people have little organizational discipline to speak of, but because of their long-term entanglement with the government army, they have created extremely strong battles. Under the large amount of dollars and the British list sprinkled by the Japanese, he quickly sold himself and took refuge. It became a powerful supplement to the combat power of the Japanese army. Some of the uniforms and weapons of this supernumerary armed force were obtained from combat warehouses in Panama, Port Colón and other places, and some were taken off directly from the bodies of American soldiers, and after a little cleaning and sewing, they were handed over to the indigenous armed forces to be replaced.

At the same time, the President of Costa Rica, like the President of Ecuador, openly announced that Costa Rica and Ecuador would join the "Pacific Co-Prosperity Sphere" created by Japan and jointly fight against the "Monroe Doctrine" of US imperialism, thanks to the "hardship fee" sent by the Japanese and the purchase of properties in South America or mainland Australia.

At the same time, the President of Costa Rica also excitedly announced that the Japanese Government has agreed to return to the countries of the Americas the land in the Midwest that the United States has illegally plundered since its independence after its victory, and that Costa Rica will receive the important land of Texas in the western Gulf of Mexico.

This was followed by a nationwide military mobilization and the expulsion of American diplomats and workers of American banks, plantations, and factories, and the relentless repression of American nationals, confiscation and unscrupulous division of property.

When the government handed out the dividends, the people of the two countries boiled, and under the guidance of the propaganda organs, intentionally or unintentionally, they quickly became crazy, and almost all the industries of the allies were looted.

The persecution and slaughter of expatriates from the United States, France and other countries have been repeated, but the target has been changed.

In order to prevent the situation in South America from deteriorating rapidly, US Secretary of War Stimson and Commander-in-Chief George Marshall jointly signed an order to transfer US troops into South America again.

This time it was no longer a petty fight, but a careful deployment.

The Ninth Army, which had just been formed in Fort Lewis, Washington, was transferred to Venezuela last year, on the one hand, to consolidate the front, prevent the Japanese army from winning the southern invasion and causing Brazil, Argentina, and other countries to fall to the Axis powers, and to protect the normal production of the Maracaibo, Willemstad, Acquaro, and Norco oil fields in Venezuela, which are extremely important to the United States.

The U.S. military in Honduras would have enough time to defend while maintaining a relatively strong battle group on the southern front, which could quickly penetrate into the Japanese flank in the event of a full-scale counteroffensive, leaving the enemy in Latin America.

The commander of the Ninth Army of the US Army was Major General Kenyon Joyce, which was originally prepared for the Pacific Theater of Operations, and had under the jurisdiction of the 77th, 81st, and 98th Divisions, each of which had 18 105 mm M3 infantry howitzers, 36 105 mm M2 howitzers, 12 155 mm howitzers, five half-track vehicles, 13 M8 armored vehicles, 1,400 vehicles, and 10 light observation aircraft. It was very difficult for the Japanese army to take advantage.

The Japanese army obviously had no intention of continuing its offensive to the south, and the south used the 1st and 3rd Divisions, together with the Colombian rebels and the Ecuadorian government army, to defend the line of the eastern Cordillera Mountains and the Guaviare plateau.

However, the "Pig Turquoise" Special Attack Division, together with the 36th Division, boarded the ship at the port of Buenaventura and disappeared.

On the night of 23 July, the 16th Army of the Japanese Army, under the command of General Jun Imamura, the commander of the corps, suddenly landed at Corinto and Fonseca Bay, Nicaragua.

Before the fall of Managua, the U.S. military had been warned by the Nicaraguan army, and began to send people to erect pontoon bridges over the rivers in the Miskito coastal plain area in advance, and when the air force discovered the whereabouts of the Japanese troops, they quickly broke away from the confrontation with the Japanese troops on the south bank of the San Juan River and frantically withdrew northward.

The Japanese soon sensed the movement of the American troops, and quickly launched a pursuit, and by the end of August, the American troops had retreated into Honduras, and joined forces with another American division and the US Tenth Army, which had arrived urgently for reinforcements, in the area north of the Patuka River, and drew a river with the Japanese in this area, forming a situation of confrontation.

The current US Tenth Army, under the jurisdiction of the 32nd, 38th, 41st, and American Divisions, was originally prepared for the Pacific Theater like the Ninth Army, and the troops were filled with too many new soldiers, and the combat effectiveness was not flattering.

Six divisions of the U.S. Army were huddled together, coupled with sharp artillery fire, the Japanese army launched three forced crossings in succession, all of which failed, and had no choice but to find another way.
