readx;??? The naval base of the US Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor was bombed twice by Japanese aircraft, and in two hours from seven to nine o'clock, the entire naval base ceased to exist. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This time, the losses of the United States were quite large, much heavier than in the previous life. In the last life, the US Pacific Fleet lost only a couple of old ships, and the main combat carriers did not lose.

In total, the entire Pacific Fleet suffered more than 3,000 casualties, 200 aircraft, and a small number of base facilities.

There were many military bases around Pearl Harbor, strategic material reserves were intact, and even the few sunken ships were salvaged and repaired within a few months, and the repaired buildings were quickly put back into the fight against Japan.

And this life is different, the same two waves of aircraft bombing, dozens of ships of the US Pacific Fleet in the harbor were completely wiped out. Not only that, but nearly 10,000 naval officers and men were killed or wounded, and hundreds of planes were destroyed.

What's more, the entire naval base was irreparably damaged, both the docks and the berths were blown to pieces. It can be said that if the Pearl Harbor base is to be put back into service, it is simply impossible to rebuild it without a year or two.

In fact, it will only take longer to repair, because once Japan and the United States officially start a war, the Japanese will not let the Hawaiian Islands become a stumbling block to intercept the Japanese army southward again.

When the first wave of Japanese bombers attacked, the bomber formation sent a message to General Yamamoto Go**, who was waiting for news in the task force, "Tiger, Tiger, Tiger." The radio signal to indicate the success of the attack.

In the command room of the Japanese task force, when the code name of Tiger Tiger was passed into the command room, the entire command room was jubilant.

An hour later, when the news of the completion of the second wave of attacks came back, the entire command room was shocked by the tremendous results.

In the previous life, the planes that had just been preparing for the third wave of attacks were relieved of the order to attack by Lieutenant General Nagumo Tadaichi, but this life is different.

Several generals, including Yamamoto Isoroku, did not give the order to stop the attack, and everyone was waiting for the second wave of planes to return.

At this time, hundreds of sailors on the six aircraft carriers were still desperately carrying ammunition on the deck, and it seemed that there was still a big battle to be fought.

What's even more strange is that Yamamoto Isoroku and Nagumo Tadaichi have just received the latest telegram, and the two of them opened it and looked at it, revealing a surprised gaze.

At this time, in the presidential office of the White House, Roosevelt sat quietly in a wheelchair, just by the window behind his desk, staring blankly at the scenery outside the window. At this time, only Director Hoover stood quietly behind Roosevelt in the office.

"Hoover, do you think it's too despicable for us to do this?" Roosevelt asked in a low voice.

"Mr. President, for the sake of world peace and for the safety of the lives of the majority of the people in the United States, we can only sacrifice the lives of a small number of soldiers in exchange for the resistance of the people of the whole country." Director Hoover replied in the same low voice.

"I'm just worried that our casualties are too heavy. If the number of casualties exceeds the bottom line of the people, I am afraid that not only will it not have the effect of provoking the people, but will also deter the people's sense of resistance. Roosevelt said worriedly.

"The casualties should not be large, we already knew a few months ago that the Japanese were going to attack our Pearl Harbor, and now the sailors in the harbor are all on vacation, and there are not many sailors left in the harbor.

It's daylight again, and the sailors will still run away knowing that they are invincible. In this way, our personnel losses should not be too large. It is estimated that the sacrifice of 1,800 people will be blocked.

In addition, most of the warships in the harbor are old warships, and only two of the latest aircraft carriers have also been transferred out of Pearl Harbor, and as soon as we declare war with Japan, these two aircraft carriers will immediately go to Pearl Harbor with the eight frigates departing from the mainland to regain control of Pearl Harbor's defense.

At that time, the Hawaii Naval Base was still an important gateway for us to restrain the southward movement of Japanese troops. And we have a reasonable reason to go to war with Japan. Hoover patiently advised.

"Alas, I still feel guilty that in order to get the American people to agree to participate in the world war, we allowed the Japanese to slaughter our soldiers. We must do a good job of comforting the families of the dead and wounded soldiers, and we must not let the soldiers shed blood and tears. Roosevelt lamented.

"Don't worry, Mr. President, our treasury is very sufficient, and in the past few years, our Investigation Bureau has also made a lot of profits by partnering with Huaxing Group to do a small business.

I can privately use the small coffers of the Bureau of Investigation to double the pensions for the families of the fallen soldiers, and I will never let the families of the fallen soldiers live a hard life. Hoover said.

"You do things, I don't worry. How are the materials for the repair of the ships of the Pacific Fleet going? How long does it take to overhaul once? Roosevelt suddenly thought of the repair of the fleet after the heavy damage.

"Mr. President, a few months ago I prepared all the maintenance materials and materials that might be used by the entire Pacific Fleet.

Except for a few old warships that have no repair value and are not ready to be repaired, I can guarantee that as long as these warships are not blown apart, our shipyard can repair all the ships within three months.

In fact, these warships can take advantage of this opportunity to be modernized, and I believe that when the Pacific Fleet appears in front of the people's eyes again in a few months, it will be a super-powerful fleet that has undergone modernization. Director Hoover said proudly.

"I'm relieved when you say that, it's eight o'clock now, and I don't know what's going on at Pearl Harbor? Isn't it time for the Japanese to go, we should be able to pull out all the planes hidden around Pearl Harbor.

If the operation is good, maybe we will be able to catch up with the Japanese planes, catch the traces of their task force, and give them a hard blow, so as to boost the morale of the people. "Feelings: President Roosevelt and Director Hoover had long known that the Japanese were going to attack Pearl Harbor, and they were even ready to take the opportunity to counterattack.

"If you wish, I'll arrange it." After speaking, Director Hoover bowed deeply to President Roosevelt.

Unexpectedly, Director Hoover had just turned around, and before he could leave, the door of the president's office was rudely opened. Director Hoover just wanted to scold someone for being rude. As a result, the words came to his lips and he swallowed them back, because it was Admiral Stark, the Secretary of the Navy who was framed by Hoover and Roosevelt, who broke in.

"Oh no, our naval base at Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese, more than 10,000 casualties, all facilities were destroyed, and all ships of the entire Pacific Fleet were destroyed."

"What" Both Roosevelt and Director Hoover were shocked by the news. Because this result was too unexpected for the two.

"How is it possible, isn't it a holiday today? Even if the entire seaport is destroyed, the casualties can't be so large? The thief-minded Director Hoover asked in surprise.

"I don't know why? The intelligence of the Japanese was extremely accurate, and their hundreds of planes were divided into two air raids, each of which had a clear division of labor and a clear target, and not only all the military targets on the surface were blown up, but even dozens of important military sites hidden in the Hawaiian Islands were destroyed one by one.

What is even more serious is that the entire Pearl Harbor has been bombed several times inside and out, and even those civilian facilities have not escaped the fate of being bombed. As a result, not only did there be many civilian casualties, but our soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Stark said loudly.

"The Japanese are too much, they don't even spare civilians, Hoover, immediately hold a press conference, I want, I want to immediately, immediately declare war on the despicable Japanese." Roosevelt roared.
