readx;
On April 26, 1943, a huge fleet of 22 aircraft carriers of the U.S. Maritime Self-Defense Force was joined by Vice Admiral Chester? William? Nimitz left the Norfolk naval base under his command and headed for the Caribbean. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info╔╗Although the reconnaissance planes of the Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy found that it was from this fleet, they thought that it was just a US attack on the Mexican Navy, because Nimitz strictly ordered the fleet to maintain radio silence, so that the electronic reconnaissance ships of the Chinese Imperial Navy could not intercept any information, so they did not raise their vigilance.
Since Roosevelt already knew that a war with the Chinese Empire could not be avoided, Roosevelt decided to preemptively seize the initiative in the war before the Chinese Empire could come up with a high-sounding excuse for the time being.
According to MacArthur's strategic deployment, the huge military power of the Chinese Empire was simply not something that the United States could contend with. Therefore, Roosevelt was not prepared for a full-scale war with the Chinese Empire from the beginning, but held on to the Chinese Empire in the Pacific direction, and connected with Germany in the Atlantic, and in the Caribbean, uprooted San Juan, the most powerful base of the Chinese Empire in the Caribbean, and opened up the situation in Central and South America.
The U.S. military didn't want to be consumed with Mexico, so it decided to fight a quick victory. ╔╗ Based on the relationship between the Chinese Empire and Mexico, once the U.S. military breaks into Mexico, the Chinese Empire will definitely use the Sino-Mexican Security Treaty as an excuse to send troops. MacArthur believed that the Chinese Empire would rely on Mexico as a landing zone to attack the United States from the Pacific, and that in order to avoid a head-on collision with the Imperial Chinese Army on the American continent, it should flatten Mexico as quickly as possible. and went all the way south to capture the whole of Central and South America, blocking the Chinese Imperial Navy from using the Panama Canal to increase troops in the Caribbean and the Atlantic.
The reason why the Chinese Empire was able to steadily control the Caribbean Sea was mainly because of the San Juan base of the Chinese Empire in Puerto Rico in the Caribbean Sea, which was a comprehensive base of the navy, land and air force, where the Chinese Empire deployed more than 1,000 combat aircraft, more than 600 main battle tanks, more than 100 warships, and a total strength of more than 170,000 troops. The force is incomparably strong. MacArthur believed that as long as the San Juan base was destroyed at the first opportunity, the naval and air forces of the Chinese empire in the Caribbean Sea could be eliminated, so that the US military could quickly encircle Mexico by land and sea and quickly end the war in Mexico. While the rest of Central America was vulnerable, it only took a week for the U.S. military to take control of Panama and prevent the Imperial Chinese Navy from reinforcing the Caribbean from the Pacific. ╔╗
The U.S. military in order to prepare for this battle. It's been a long time since I've groveled. The Roosevelt administration had sacrificed enormous interests in order to appease the Chinese Empire, and had always tolerated on the battlefield in Mexico. A lot of national power was spent. But the Roosevelt administration's strategic purpose had been achieved. Because they avoided the intervention of the Chinese Empire, they instead gained time to prepare.
During this period, the Roosevelt administration built a large number of warships and produced tens of thousands of fighters and tanks without the knowledge of the Chinese Empire, which gave the Roosevelt administration great confidence.
In the fleet led by Nimitz, aircraft carriers were the main force, including the Enterprise, the Wasp, Yorktown, the Valiant, the Franklin, the Ticonderoga, the Randolph, the Lexington, the Bunker Hill, the Hancock, the Bennington, the Boxer, the Richard, the Wright, the Chilshach, the Oriscany, the Antietam, the Princeton, the Shangri-La, the Tarawa, etc., carrying more than 2,000 combat aircraft.
In addition to these aircraft carriers. The U.S. Maritime Self-Defense Force also includes eleven battleships, twelve cruisers, twenty-nine destroyers, and more than a hundred submarines.
According to Nimitz's plan, this fleet would be enough to destroy the San Juan base. But Nimitz did not dare to underestimate the Chinese Empire's military might in San Juan. In order to avoid the detection of the Chinese Empire, Nimitz did a lot of work.
April 26 is Saturday. On the occasion of the 45th anniversary celebration of the San Juan base of the Chinese Empire, American agents have been lurking in San Juan for many years, and a company called Belle has prepared 26 million dragon dollars of labor supplies, and the San Juan base command actually approved it. As a result, U.S. agents took the opportunity to infiltrate the base and sabotage San Juan's super-large radar station system, allowing a large number of U.S. aircraft carriers to evade the radar surveillance of the Chinese Empire.
On April 27, most of the officers and soldiers at the San Juan base were on holiday because it was a Sunday. And the radar station, which broke yesterday, was not repaired.
At 4:42 a.m., a vigilant destroyer of the Imperial Chinese Navy spotted an underwater unidentified sonar echo outside the port of San Juan, judged to be an unidentified submarine, and immediately went to expel it, but for some reason, it suddenly received an order from the upper peak and canceled the operation. ╔╗
The U.S. submarine reported the situation to Nimitz and determined that all the capital ships of the Caribbean Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy were in port, including the aircraft carriers Wudangshan and Emeishan. Nimitz then gave the White House the final order to confirm the attack, and soon received an order from the White House to attack San Juan.
At six o'clock in the morning, Lieutenant General Nimitz received the order to attack, and ordered the first wave of the attack cluster to take off. At this time, the U.S. fleet was already less than 220 nautical miles north of San Juan, but the strange thing is that the U.S. military radio listening device seemed to have discovered a signal sent to San Juan, but because the U.S. military had just developed a radio listening device, it was not advanced enough to capture the content.
At 6:20 a.m., the first wave of 790 bombers and fighters took off and flew towards the San Juan base. An hour later, the first wave of U.S. attack aircraft arrived in the port of San Juan and launched attacks on intended targets.
What is surprising is that 30 minutes earlier, more than a dozen destroyers in the port of San Juan suddenly sailed out and launched an attack on the US surveillance submarine near the port, which was quickly sunk. Subsequently, the aircraft carriers Wudangshan and Emeishan left the port on the pretext of performing their duties, and the Caribbean Fleet in Hong Kong was left with only more than 40 battleships, air defense cruisers, and destroyers. And all the fighters on the tarmac of San Juan Air Force Base were pulled onto the runway, neatly arranged, as if they were afraid that others would not be able to see them. However, the fighter planes on the runway were all old propeller aircraft such as the J-10, and the most advanced jets such as the J-11 were transferred to other field backup airfields in Puerto Rico.
At 6:27 a.m., the commander of the first wave of the US attack group gave the order to attack, and more than 700 bombers and fighters began to dive to attack the San Juan base. Their target was the capital ship of the Imperial Caribbean Fleet of China anchored in the harbor, but the original target aircraft carrier was missing, which caused confusion in the US attack group. However, the U.S. military quickly adjusted its tactics and began attacking Imperial Chinese battleships anchored in harbors, aircraft on the runways of various airfields, and air defense positions at the San Juan base.
Countless bombs fell from the sky, which immediately frightened the officers and soldiers of the Chinese Empire on the ground, because they had always been the ones who bombed others, and they never thought that they would be bombed by others one day.
Since most of the officers and soldiers were on vacation, they were scattered in various entertainment venues such as dormitories, restaurants, and sports fields in the San Juan base, and even many officers and soldiers went to the city to have fun. As a result, most of the base's air defense equipment either failed to start, or there was a lack of operators, and as a result, the air defense capability was almost zero, allowing US planes to easily fly into the sky over the base and calmly drop bombs.
The Chinese Emperor has always been known internationally for its strict management of the army, but the San Juan base has become an undefended super base, until many years of study, the world's academic circles are puzzled by this, but the Chinese imperial government has always refused to disclose the archives of the year, and people have no way of knowing the answer.
The US torpedo dive bombers dropped torpedoes one after another, constantly hitting the warships of the Chinese Empire anchored in the harbor, and the huge explosion caused the warships to be quickly damaged. The aerial bombs dropped by US planes destroyed the fighter planes parked at the airport in an instant.
Rapid sirens sounded, and the San Juan Base Command issued a warning to all combat units: "The San Juan base is under air raids, this is not a drill!" ”
At 7:10, the super-battleship Luzon began to counterattack, opening heavy fire on the American planes attacking from the starboard side. The powerful Vulcan Phalanx system spewed tongues of fire and shot down two US military planes in an instant. However, there were too many American fighters, and most of the officers and men on the battleship Luzon were not there, and only a few people left behind used the phalanx to counterattack, and soon the phalanx ran out of ammunition, but they could not open the ammunition depot and had no way to replenish the ammunition, so they had to flee in the battleship Luzon.
However, the U.S. strike group kept an eye on the giant warship in the harbor, and the Luzon had just been activated when a torpedo hit its stern. The Luzon was the first super warship to try to escape from the port of San Juan, but it was soon surrounded by American planes and had to run aground on the beach to prevent sinking after being shot multiple times.
Ten minutes later, San Juan TV suspended its program and called on all military personnel to return to their posts. The well-trained officers and soldiers of the Chinese Emperor quickly began to gather from all corners of the base to their combat positions.
At 7:32 a.m., the ammunition depot at the front of the super battleship Zhu Yuanzhang exploded, and the Zhu Yuanzhang sank within 17 minutes, killing 40 percent of the crew members left behind on the ship.
Three minutes later, the Governor General of San Juan reported to the entire Atlantic Fleet and the Forbidden City: "The United States attacked San Juan, and the war between the Chinese Empire and the United States broke out. ”
Soon, the San Juan Base Command issued an order to counterattack, and more than 200 Jian-11 fighters that took off from the field airfields around the San Juan base quickly took off and flew to San Juan to participate in the battle.
The more than a dozen Aegis air defense heavy cruisers in the harbor have also miraculously gathered all the officers and men and quickly organized an anti-aircraft fire network. (To be continued.)
