Chapter 962: Canal Shock
Time flies, and a month has passed since the wedding. Dong Ku ended his honeymoon in March 38 and gave the order to start the horse capture plan.
The ministries, which were already ready, began to move and rallied towards the set goals.
At this time, the Panamanian political axe was equivalent to the establishment of a state within a state in Panama due to the existence of the US-Malaysia Treaty. Not only are the railroads operated by the United States, but the jurisdiction of the canals is also under the jurisdiction of the United States.
Although Panamanian independence was achieved by the so-called four Americans and seven Panamanians, with the United States supporting supplies and weapons, the American overlord clause also made it unbearable for this cowardly country, although the United States declared war on Japan the day before, but it was not against the United States, but because there were many Japanese freighters in the canal, and they were detained after the declaration of war.
Although the small family is a little angry, it also shows that they are too poor, or in other words, the big interests are controlled by the United States, and they get very little from the benefits of the railways and canals.
Even before Dong Ku's wedding, Cuba and Hawaii began to secretly import fighters into Panama, and there were related personnel who bordered Panamanian political axes.
Will the President Ma of Panama be 'Juan? Demostenes? Arosemena? Brealati'. This will make this president, who is committed to education and health, not seriously ill, and his health is still relatively healthy.
Although Juan has not made military achievements, it is not that he does not want to, but that he thinks that only after having a strong foundation of the people can he confront the behemoth of the United States. This is the main reason why he is committed to education and health.
It was Han Lie who came to contact Juan, who did not go back to Cuba and did not attend the group wedding. He was one of the few generals who was not married, so he came to Panama first, and met Juan.
When Juan found out his identity. He was still very careful, but when he heard that Han Lie personally participated in the independence of Cuba and assisted it in its confrontation with the United States, he was moved.
After three days of secret meetings, Juan was able to get out of the way that he was not involved in any political management of Panama, leaving Panama completely independent. When he repaid the loan equivalent to one billion euros to help Panama build infrastructure, he was completely reactive.
An alliance with Fury is now the best option. Although Nu Feng controls many countries, the strongest one is currently Fu Feng. Moreover, Nufeng does not participate in any management of Panama, only the trade requires a low tariff for the countries in the business alliance, but it is definitely not too much, only two percentage points lower, and gives the cargo ships in the business alliance a reduction in the cost, which is also two points lower.
The only special point is that the countries in the business alliance do business in Panama, and if it is legal, it is convenient and taxes are reduced. and diplomatic immunity.
Juan is okay with all of this. These are just commercial conditions, and there is no loss of interest for Panama. If it were truly independent, the operation of railways and canals alone would revitalize Panama's already sluggish economy.
With the support of the angry front, there is no need to worry about the threat of force from the United States, after all, the Bahamas, Cuba. Bermuda declared its independence under the nose of the United States, and the United States did not stand in the way of its independence after the war. This is enough to show that the strength of Fufeng is much higher than that of the United States.
Thereupon. After finally confirming that Nufeng would not intervene in the affairs of the regime, he agreed to sign the treaty, but only if Panama gained independence and obtained the right to operate the canal and railroad.
Han Lie knew that he would agree, and after the meeting, he didn't meet with him again, but just left a code word on the phone. Then it quietly disappeared.
At the same time as Dong Ku issued the order, he began to reconnoiter and control all the US troops and offices in the Isthmus of Panama, so that a steady stream of Huya soldiers and Fufeng elites gathered in disguise at these locations, ready to control these places at any time.
At this time, the United States did not know that Dong Ku had set his sights on the Panama Canal, which they had taken great control to control. There were only four old battleships, two fast cruisers and two inshore frigates, and the naval forces that never left the area.
These ships left few and far between, but the infantry was nearly twice as large as before the Cuban War, with one division of infantry and two armored regiments stationed in the area to secure the railways and canals.
This is a paradise for Americans, so there are many tourists or businessmen here who enjoy any rights that people here can enjoy, but also develop the problem of arrogance and arrogance, and rape often happens.
In the undercurrent, it has been ten days since Dong Ku gave the order to start the plan, and there is not much change in other places, Germany is still fighting with Soviet Russia, and the war is inextricable, and Britain is shrinking its forces and is defending on the ground to prevent the German army from taking the opportunity to cross the English Channel.
Panama is as calm as it was before. However, Han Lie was ready, and the descendants that Juan had sent him to cooperate with were also in place.
In the early morning, Panama City began to be noisy as usual, and the city woke up in the sea breeze.
On Central Street, in the commercial center of Panama City, American soldier John swayed and hummed a little song in the direction of the barracks.
He was very satisfied with the big fight last night. The Panamanian girl not only lived well, but also looked quite beautiful, so he decided to go back and get a house to raise her, so as not to be remembered by others.
As he was walking, suddenly, there was a commotion behind him, followed by two Panamanian youths rushing into the street, pointing at him and shouting, "It's him!!" Don't let him run!! ”
Hearing the shouting, John looked back suspiciously, then turned his head to look ahead, not figuring out who the shouting behind him was aimed at.
Just when he was stunned, two young men grabbed his arms one by one and shouted at the other.
"Fake!!"
John's good mood vanished at this moment, he was angry and threw the two of them away, and was just about to ask them what they wanted to do, when a group of people surrounded him, and then two people with bloody faces got up from the ground, staggered forward two steps, and grabbed John again.
So much blood......
John froze. Immediately feeling that something was wrong, these two people seemed to want to blackmail themselves, otherwise they would just fall and their faces would be covered with blood? It's like washing your hair and face with blood.
"Take away your dirty hands!!"
John was furious.
But the two young men did not give up, still holding his arm tightly, shouting intermittently.
The onlookers around understood when John was furious, and the emotion was that the American soldier had been raped last night. It is said that this matter is nothing new, and no one cares about it when it comes to the barracks. But this product is not only strong. He raped the girl in the house, and killed the girl and her parents, as well as a four-year-old brother, and slaughtered all the houses for a while.
Now the onlookers stopped. Tearing John to find the commander of the barracks theory.
The furious John also understood what was going on, and with his angry fist knocked down the two young men who had come up first, then drew his revolver and shouted, "You are blackmailing!! You're welcome in the approach Don't blame me!! ”
Just as he brandished his pistol, the people around him were stunned, and a few soldiers in the distance who had also spent the night saw what seemed to be his comrades besieged here. They didn't care at all, and laughed at the kid for not giving money. But out of the heart of the group, they must not sit idly by, so. A few people walked towards the noisy place.
Just as they were walking forward, there were suddenly two gunshots, and then the crowd dispersed, leaving a lonely stunned look at the two still twitching figures on the ground, obviously stunned.
"Oh no, it's John!"
Several American soldiers who had already approached saw that they were still acquaintances, and they all drew their pistols and rushed over.
"They broke into the house and killed the whole family, and they also killed people in the street to escape!! Don't let them run!! ”
After a brief pause. The scattered crowd pulled out pistols of various styles and shouted and gathered around.
John was stunned by this time. A man who rushed up dropped his pistol and punched him in the stomach, his stomach cramping so violently that he fell to the ground in agony, his brain blank.
Several of the soldiers who rushed to him were startled and raised their guns to try to rescue John.
But this will make them obviously misjudge the situation, and the crowd is excited. Several guns were pointed at them, and then they were also shot and knocked down by random punches.
Behind the curtain on the second floor of the mobile small not far away, Han Lie looked at the noise on the street and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "These bastards can go to acting." It just so happens that the captain is recruiting what kind of actors, I think they are quite suitable. ”
Adjutant Dubin nodded with a smile and said, "Look at Han San, the convulsions look the same as the real one, like having epilepsy, but it's really like being shot and dying." ”
Han Lie saw that the situation was under control, and then ordered: "I am the director, the next scene, the second step plan is opened." ”
After giving the order, he added: "Be smart." ”
So, the angry crowd tied up a few GIs, carried the corpses and ran to the nearest barracks, shouting along the way, telling what had happened.
It is said that the common people are so foolish, and sure enough, the more people gathered, the more and more people gathered, and they gathered into a full flow of people, rolling towards the barracks.
During the march, after a short period of noise, there was a neat slogan, and it was actually the Americans to get out of Panama.
Things are just like the director's plot, how could the US military camp let these civilians storm the barracks? The barracks sirens sounded for a long time, and the soldiers, armed with guns, stood by to prevent these people from storming the barracks, and tried to talk, understand the situation, and save the few GIs who were bound.
At that moment, a gunshot rang out, and then a person in front of the crowd was shot and fell to the ground. This time it was broken, and the Panamanian civilians, who were already armed with weapons, immediately began to fight back amid the sound of gunfire.
The situation suddenly got out of control, and the soldiers in the barracks had no choice but to shoot back amid the screaming of bullets.
These Panamanian civilians were extremely accurate in their marksmanship, killing all the soldiers behind the bunkers in a matter of seconds, and the losses here were only a few people.
The angry crowd rushed into the barracks with shouts as the gunfire in front of them disappeared.
These dense crowds rushed into the barracks and quickly returned fire when they found a counterattack, and in the midst of the surging waves, a base of more than 400 soldiers was actually captured in less than two minutes.
The tanks were controlled by these well-trained civilians before they could even start, and then the angry crowd grabbed all the GIs who were not killed and took them to the playground, who didn't know who stepped forward and stabbed them first, and then the remaining GIs were cut apart by the blades, and there was not a single one left.
The crowd that had not been fully catharsis erupted in cries to drive the Yankees away, and the crowd roared towards the harbor.
Panama City is very close to the mouth of the canal, so to speak, right next to each other, and the U.S. naval base is on the edge of the peninsula, where four old battleships are located. Two fast cruisers were also there, and only two near-shore defense ships were at the other end.
The sudden change caused the sirens in the harbor to blaze wildly, the battleships began to ignite, and the barracks bunkers were also equipped with heavy and light machine guns, waiting for the crowd to rush in.
Just as the battleship was on fire. There was a popping sound in the cabin, and one by one the figures were killed in the run, and those who walked steadily killed all the figures they saw with their pistols with silencers in their hands from time to time, quickly clearing the American troops in the battleship.
Those who nervously boarded the ship were headshot by bullets from unknown places when they entered their combat positions, and died in the cabin in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
The two fast cruisers have long been changed owners, because they are patrol ships that usually patrol the sea around the mouth of the canal, so. There are always people on duty on the battleship, unlike those old battleships, which are usually moored when they are fine, and it is estimated that the chimneys are rusty.
Time flew by in a tense atmosphere, and the angry crowd had rushed to the vicinity of the harbor.
The US troops at the naval base did not shoot rashly when they could not see the soldiers, and the other side did not rashly storm the port, it was a kilometer away. Bullets are gathered at a safe distance.
At the same time, the United States has already received warnings. He quickly found Juan and ordered him to stop the escalation of the conflict caused by civilians and quickly investigate what happened.
When U.S. officials met with Juan, they mobilized troops and police to try to stop the situation and have already conducted an investigation.
When U.S. officials learned that it was a civilian conflict and not an official involvement. The results of the survey are still convincing. Because the U.S. military's prostitution is already commonplace, there are occasional cases where overlords are forced to bow down. But each time the perpetrators were repatriated, and the compensation for the victims was given a little meaning and it subsided, and no conflict broke out.
And Panama's political axe also actively cooperated, and not once did the situation worsen the anger.
So. This time, the perpetrator killed a family and shot people in the street, and even the photo of Juan was found, which was taken by a tourist with a camera. The picture is that John is carrying a gun, and there are two people lying at his feet, and the shocked expressions of the civilians who are flashing around are definitely not pretended, but only in emergencies.
The matter was clear at this point, and the U.S. Navy military base had also received an order not to expand the situation and wait for official intervention to resolve it, and the army and police gathered by Juan also rushed to the vicinity of the base to evacuate the people there and prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
At this moment, a man suddenly shouted, "Look!! The Yankees' warships are about to open fire!! Run!! ”
With his shouting, many people saw that the gunners of the warships in the harbor were all lifted, and the muzzles of the guns began to turn, and the direction was exactly where they were.
This is no joke, they can shoot at soldiers with a hot head, but they are not arrogant enough to use broken guns against huge warships.
As a result, the crowd panicked and began to flee to Panama City to avoid being killed by artillery bombardment.
Just as they were running, the battleship in the distance suddenly erupted with fire, followed by a loud bang, and a ball of flame erupted several meters.
Before the crowd could react, five or six hundred meters away from them, a deafening explosion sounded and a flame rose into the air.
The enemy shook violently, and the shockwave swept towards the fleeing figures like a tsunami, engulfing them in the blink of an eye. In the distance, debris crackled and fell, and the crowd was even more panicked, desperately fleeing back in the huge earthquake.
When he heard the sound of artillery, not only Juan was stunned, but even the American official was dumbfounded.
Artillery was fired against civilians, and this was a big deal.
Juan angrily grabbed the American official and yelled, "Why are you shooting at civilians?? Are you going to wage a war of aggression??!!! ”
"Mr. President, calm down, this is an accident, it is an accident......
The officer argued palely.
At the moment when his words fell, a loud bang sounded one after another, and more than ten kilometers away, they all felt the intensity of the artillery fire.
"What the hell are you going to do??!!!"
Juan was furious, pushed the American official away, and yelled: "Pass the order, first-class combat readiness!" We need to defend our territorial dignity and defend our civilians!!! ”
"Mr. President, we need to talk about ......"
The officer was startled by the moment the guards controlled and tried to prevent the war from happening.
Juan glanced at him coldly and said disdainfully, "Talk? Talk about it with a cannon? Talk to my civilians with killings?!!! ”
After saying that, he didn't look at the goods, turned around and left the reception room, leaving the desperate official and resolutely walked outside.
The shelling continued uninterrupted, and a loud bang kicked up smoke and dust in the distance.
The battleship suddenly opened fire, leaving all the American troops and personnel in the harbor stunned, is this about to go to war?
Colonel Smith of the base was stunned for a short time and then became furious: "Fake!! I'm going to put you on the gallows!! ”
But his rage didn't work, and the shelling continued, and it continued to extend. Although there were few inhabitants and facilities, the horror of the shelling was indescribable. The loud bang struck everyone's hearts like a hammer.
Unable to contact the battleship, Smith ordered the small boat to kick the ship and give the order. At the same time, the incident was reported to the base camp. He knew he would inevitably have to go to court-martial. However, all records prove that he did not give the order for the battleship to open fire, but only went into defense.
But it's too late to say anything. The situation was out of control, and in less than an hour, it turned from a skirmish to a war.
Juan issued a national mobilization order for war during the shelling, and at the same time issued a circular to the world, strongly condemning the unprovoked act of the United States in provoking war, bitterly complaining about the criminal act of the US military shelling civilians with naval artillery, and vowing to fight to the death with the United States and protect the safety of civilians. At the same time, declare war against the United States, defend Panama at all costs, and defend Panama's sovereignty and dignity. (To be continued......)
