"Order the fleet, immediately conduct anti-submarine warfare!" On the battleship 'Tang Gaozu', Marshal Li Dingxin, who was woken up by the Jǐng guards, immediately ordered the fleet to begin anti-submarine operations. The discovery and sinking of an enemy submarine by the frigate 'Qinghai Lake' undoubtedly rang the bell for the entire Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet.

The other 21 'Lop Nur-class' frigates have also begun to increase their search area, attacking suspicious targets with depth charges as soon as they find them. The 'Fuqing-class' light cruisers also followed the frigates to assist them in launching attacks on submarines underwater. The searchlight illuminates the sea as if it were daylight!

All the warships of the fleet began to accelerate, and at low cruising speeds were the most vulnerable to enemy submarine attacks, and in the event of an enemy submarine attack, the battleships could not evade them in time. At the same time, the already dense queues began to disperse. All ships carrying depth charges launched attacks on targets. For a moment, the entire sea seemed to be boiling!

One submarine after another was found by the Chinese Navy's 'Lop Nur-class' frigates, and then they were attacked by depth charges. For submarines, hiding underwater is their best protection, and if they are discovered, they will die! The thin shell of the submarine cannot withstand the attack of depth charges, even if it is not directly hit, but if there is a depth charge exploding nearby, the huge water pressure is enough to crush the shell of the submarine, and the people inside and the officers and men of the submarine will naturally have only a dead end!

This is undoubtedly a disaster for the submarine officers and men of the US Navy. Originally, they wanted to ambush the passing Chinese Navy Expeditionary Fleet in Pamlico Bay. This is also the most common tactic of submarines. If the expeditionary fleet of the Chinese Navy enters their ambush circle. Ambushed by dozens of submarines. There will inevitably be heavy losses. In a night situation, it is not so easy to dodge a torpedo coming from the underwater shè!

The U.S. Navy's submarines are not very good at dive, and they can only dive about thirty or forty meters. Under the sonar detection of the Chinese Navy's 'Lop Nur-class' frigates, there is nothing to hide. And once discovered, they will be besieged by several frigates and destroyers, and the depth charges dropped from these ships will be enough to destroy these submarines!

The more than a dozen officers and men on the US Navy's submarine 066 were trembling at the moment, and the hull of the submarine was already creaking under the tremendous pressure of the seawater. It looks like it's going to be crushed soon! From the outside of the submarine, there was a constant explosion of 'tom tom tom', and the submarine was shaking under the pressure of the huge shock wave, which added to the fear in the hearts of the US Navy officers and men inside the submarine!

Soon, a depth charge exploded a few meters directly above the submarine. The huge shock wave generated by the explosion tore the shell of the submarine apart, and the sea water frantically poured into the submarine, causing the submarine to sink to the bottom of the sea quickly, and none of the more than ten US Navy officers and sailors inside survived!

Under the encirclement and suppression of frigates and destroyers of the Chinese Navy, none of the more than 30 submarines of the US Navy were spared. All sunk. Under the fierce attack, these submarines did not even have a chance to float. Let alone launch an attack! Once a submarine comes to the surface, they will be hit by ferocious fire from the sea, and the shells of the speed guns can easily tear the shell of the submarine apart! The submarine that has exposed its tracks, under the blow of a surface warship, does not even have the possibility of escaping!

While the Chinese Navy was dealing with the US submarines under water, the destroyer formations of the US Navy also rushed to the battlefield. More than thirty destroyers rushed towards the Chinese naval expeditionary fleet at a speed of 25 knots. It's just that they were discovered when they were still eight kilometers away from the Chinese Navy. After discovering that the enemy destroyers were attacking, the Chinese Navy's 'Jianghe-class' heavy cruisers, 'Ningbo-class' light cruisers, and some destroyers all met them, forming a tight defensive line outside the capital ships.

The artillery fire shook the sky, and the small-caliber speed guns never stopped, and the incoming US destroyers were hit by intensive firepower. The destroyer was originally small in tonnage, and the fire protection was basically equal to zero, and under such a blow, it suddenly caught fire and burned. On the sea at night, once the battleship catches fire, it will undoubtedly become the best cannonball magnet. Quite a few destroyers of the US Navy were sunk without even having a chance to fire shè torpedoes!

Of the 30 destroyers of the US Navy, less than 10 managed to break through the blockade of the Chinese Navy's heavy cruisers and light cruisers, and broke through to the 2,000-kilometer range of the Chinese Navy's capital ship and fired torpedoes. It's just that the speed of the capital ship of the Chinese Navy has already increased to more than 18 knots. The destroyers of the US Navy fired torpedoes to hit a battleship sailing at high speed at a distance of two thousand meters, which is more difficult than reaching the sky!

In this battle, not a single capital ship of the Chinese Navy was injured, let alone sunk! Only a few light cruisers and destroyers were slightly damaged in the battle, and none of them were torpedoed, but only damaged by the superstructure of the battleship when the destroyers of the US Navy counterattacked! The Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet finally survived the US Navy's counterattack without danger!

In this evening's counterattack, the US Navy once again squandered most of the US Navy's combat power, and the remaining warships can no longer pose a threat to the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet!

On the morning of January 17, the Chinese Navy Expeditionary Fleet arrived in the Chesapeake Bay, and Virginia Beach was blown into ruins under shelling by the Chinese Navy Expeditionary Fleet. A battalion of Marines landed at Norfolk Naval Base and captured the U.S. Navy base, which had run out. Another battalion landed in the Hamptons and captured the most important shipyard of the U.S. Navy. All six of the U.S. Navy's 'New Mexico-class' battleships under construction were also captured by the Chinese Navy.

The presence of the Chinese Navy in the Chesapeake Bay shocked the United States, considering that it was only 180 kilometers from Washington. Fortunately, the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet did not bring many marines this time, otherwise, these marines alone would have been enough to launch an attack on Washington!

However, the two clusters of the Chinese Army are also very fast! Cluster A departs from Texas and heads directly to Washington along the interstate highways of the United States. The good transportation conditions of the United States have created great convenience for the offensive of the Chinese Army! With the US military having completely lost the power of resistance, the Chinese army advanced at an astonishing speed of thirty kilometers per day! This still spends most of his time on the march. If the Chinese army had enough cars or wagons, the speed of advance would have increased a lot!

Cluster B was also very successful in sweeping along the U.S. coast, and the U.S. Army was simply unable to withstand the Chinese Army's attack, and often as soon as the Chinese Army attacked, these U.S. Army soldiers raised their hands and surrendered. Such a battle is too simple for the Chinese Army! Very often, as soon as tanks and armored vehicles are driven to the enemy's positions, the Americans surrender immediately, and there is no difficulty at all!

By the time of February 15, Cluster A of the Chinese Army had captured Nashville, Tennessee, and it was less than a thousand kilometers away from Washington! It's just that Marshal Zhao Bowen, the supreme commander of the North American battlefield of the squadron, is still a little dissatisfied with the current progress. If this continues, I am afraid that it will not be possible to capture Washington until around March. And if you want to conquer the whole of the United States, it will take more time!

For this reason, Marshal Zhao Bowen planned to make a risky move. Under the order of Marshal Zhao Bowen, the 2nd Armored Brigade of the 2nd Army, the 6th Armored Brigade of the 6th Army, and the cavalry brigades of the two armies were assembled, plus thousands of trucks were concentrated, and two infantry divisions were transported, so that a total of more than 50,000 troops were assembled, starting from Nashville and attacking directly to Washington!

At this moment, the U.S. Army has already been frightened by the fight, and it is simply unable to resist the attack of the squadron. Although the assault force sent by the Chinese Army's A group A is only more than 50,000 people, two armored brigades, two cavalry brigades and two infantry divisions, such a powerful attack force is still not something that the US Army can resist!

Without the fetters of the infantry, the speed of the assault troops' daily march increased to nearly 100 kilometers. Tens of thousands of people are advancing along the highway towards Washington, as if in a no-man's land!

The rapid advance of the Chinese Army towards Washington frightened the United States. U.S. President Theodore. Roosevelt ordered Secretary of War Eli Hugh. Root mobilized troops to intercept the squadron. However, those American units made up of a rabble, seeing the Chinese army's armored units charging, were immediately defeated.

On February 27, the assault troops of Group A of the Chinese Army arrived on the outskirts of Washington, and the defenders defending Washington had already escaped! The capital of the United States became a completely undefended city. Of course, US President Theodore. Roosevelt had not escaped and remained in the White House. He probably already knew that even if he wanted to escape, there was nowhere to escape!

At this time, with U.S. Vice President Woodrow. Wilson and Secretary of State William. James. The people of the Mínzhǔ party led by Brian rushed to the headquarters of the squadron and negotiated with the commander in charge of this assault force, Admiral Gao Chang! Woodrow. Vice President Wilson said that the United States is willing to surrender unconditionally to China, and the American team is willing to lay down its arms, but China must promise not to wantonly slaughter Americans!

Admiral Gao Chang, after consulting Marshal Zhao Bowen, agreed with Woodrow. Wilson's demand, the United States formally surrendered unconditionally to China, and became the object of China's slaughter! )
