Chapter 276: Layout

In fact, at this time, if Japan singled out Britain in Asia, Japan still had enough self-confidence, and the British Far East Fleet could not compete with the Combined Fleet at all in terms of the strength of the two sides, two battleships and two battle cruisers, two large and one small and three aircraft carriers, and eight battleships of the Combined Fleet, three large and two small five aircraft carriers, and nearly 20 heavy cruisers, this is a desperate comparison at all, not to mention that the Japanese Navy also has two Nagato with the largest caliber main guns in the world.

As for the strength of the army, needless to say, even if the main force of the Japanese army is dragged on the battlefield in China, it is not something that the British army in Southeast Asia can contend with, and it is even more impossible to increase the number of troops, neither the British army nor the navy has this kind of strength, and the main force is drawn to Asia, what if the mustache smashes the nest? For now, the British were afraid of this deployment, and could only watch the Germans flex their muscles on the European continent.

And for the Japanese Navy, now can also be said to be the best opportunity, in the final analysis, their industrial strength is still much worse than the British, now Britain is building five George V-class battleships, two Brilliant-class aircraft carriers, Ji Lu is planning the Lion-class battle cruiser, three Brilliant-class aircraft carriers, and the Japanese Navy is only building the two treasures of the town and a Wyvern aircraft carrier, it can be said that now is the smallest year for the comparison of the naval strength of the two sides, at this time, when will not fight?

If you sit back and watch the British attack the oil tankers at sea, the country's economy will have to go bankrupt in less than a year, not to mention that the emperor is powerful all over the world, even the Chinese battlefield will not be able to hold on, fight, must be fought! Japan, from the emperor to the cabinet, quickly made a unanimous decision.

While the Japanese government was secretly preparing for war in Southeast Asia, four small sharks were still hunting at sea, and in just one week, four Japanese oil tankers were sunk, and one ocean-going freighter was sunk, and the outside world was already sure that the British had begun a strangulation war against Japan. Yang Feng of Peking and his Ming Ribao even issued a public statement apologizing to the British government, admitting their misunderstanding, and inferring with great optimism that as long as the British submarines blockaded Japan for a year, the country would completely collapse.

It's not just him. The United States, France, the Soviet Union, and even the major newspapers in Britain are discussing this strangulation war with great interest, and the so-called brick family named shou has come out to do all kinds of analysis, inference, and even list the timetable for the Japanese government to sue for peace with the British, of course, these people have more or less the shadow of Yang Feng behind them.

There has been no comment on these British governments, and they cannot claim to be innocent. has already been scolded to the blood, if this time to pour cold water on the enthusiastic people in the country, it is estimated that No. 10 Downing Street can be demolished by the angry British people.

At this time, on the Chinese battlefield, the Japanese offensive was finally contained, and after receiving reinforcements from the 25th Group Army, the battle line on the Jiangxi battlefield finally stabilized. The veterans of Dong Zhentang's Anti-Union Resistance League were all killed in the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and the bald guy was originally evenly matched with Shouichi Terauchi. Now, with the addition of such a new force all at once, the situation on the battlefield immediately changed, and the Japanese army began to go on the defensive.

On the battlefield in Guangxi, the pressure on the Gui Department was greatly relieved after receiving the full support of Chongqing, especially the addition of new fighters, and Liu Xiang reinforced him with two more armies. In this way, the battle line was gradually stabilized, but surprisingly, the defense of Nanning, commanded by Deng Xihou, failed, and although more than 10,000 Japanese troops were destroyed, Nanning was lost.

Of course, the outside world doesn't know what to do. This was personally instructed by Boss Yang, how could the Japanese enter Vietnam if they didn't get out of the way? He didn't want the French to watch from the sidelines, and now France is the weakest of all Asian parties, and it is as popular as a dessert before a meal.

The situation on the battlefield does not need to be too concerned, Boss Yang is still working his Yanchang oil field, Beiping, the Soviet Union, and even oil experts from the United States, modern drilling equipment, modern oil production technology, so that this oil field is progressing rapidly, in just a few months, there have been three oil wells with an annual output of thousands of tons began to produce oil, and another small oil refinery has also begun to operate, for oil transportation, Yan Xishan and Yan'an jointly built a highway from Yan'an to Taiyuan, but he is not so generous as Yang Feng, As a toll for transporting oil, the guy owns fifteen percent of the shares in Yanchang Oilfield.

When the production of Yanchang oilfield was on the right track, Boss Yang hurriedly returned to modern times to pull back his last two small sharks, and then took a special plane to fly directly to Europe, first went around Germany, and handed over to them the last technique he promised the Germans, that is, his acoustic self-guided torpedo, and then went to Copenhagen to pick up his two fiancées, and flew to the United States with them and his American lover, he wanted to personally sit in the town and prevent any possibility of the United States intervening in the Anglo-Japanese war. Actually, this is not difficult, if the Japanese do not attack the Philippines, the Americans will have absolutely no interest in intervening in this war, they are used to stabbing in the back, rather than going shirtless at the beginning of the war.

In fact, Yang Feng has been wondering about this question, why did the Japanese stab the Americans first in the Pacific War? If you want to say that the oil embargo is forced, it is a little wrong.

The oil in Southeast Asia has nothing to do with the United States and Mao, and the oil in Malaya and Dutch Indochina is in the hands of the British and the Dutch, of course, it can also be directly said that it is in the hands of the British, unless the United States and Britain jointly embargo Japanese oil, but the British will definitely not want to provoke the bottom line of the Japanese in East Asia when they are beaten by a mustache, and from the perspective of the entire war situation, neither the Americans nor the British are ready for war and rush to the war.

The oil in the United States is basically produced locally, and only a large East Texas oil field exceeds the output of the entire Southeast Asia, and the main demand of the American economy for Southeast Asia is rubber, but at this time, DuPont's nitrile rubber has already been invented, but because of the high cost compared with natural rubber, but it does not have to rely on Southeast Asia, and they also have the Philippines!

Therefore, if the Japanese had not attacked Pearl Harbor from the beginning, but had attacked Changi Port directly, perhaps the Americans would have to watch the excitement for a while, and without Pearl Harbor Roosevelt would not have been able to handle the isolationism of Congress at all. As for what the United States and Japan are fighting for hegemony in the Pacific Ocean, it is even more ridiculous, a country that can't even handle domestic isolationism, even if it has the intention of competing for hegemony, it does not have the courage to compete for hegemony, the United States is a standard mang country, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, you don't push them to rush. Or if there is a chance to stab them in the back, they absolutely do not have the courage to take the initiative to intervene in a war where the outcome is unpredictable.

As for the US-British alliance, it is even more of a joke, the Soviet Union was supported by the Americans, Germany was supported by the Americans, and what they like to do most is to drag the British back, and if there is another-stirring stick in Asia, the Americans are very welcome, let the Japanese completely disrupt the old order in Southeast Asia, and then crush this bug to death with great righteousness. Liberating Southeast Asia from Britain and France, as they did after World War II, is the best option.

So to sum up, Boss Yang can only think that before Pearl Harbor, the Japanese cabinet had convulsions.

After the Hercules plane flew out of Copenhagen, it first visited London, and at the airport, Boss Yang once again expressed his sincere apologies to the British Zhengfu in front of the British media. I was young and ignorant and did not understand the strategic arrangements of His Excellency the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. So there were some misunderstandings, and now it is clear that I believe that the submarines of the British Royal Navy will definitely let those despicable Japanese know what it means to be cocooned.

The British Zhengfu pinched his nose to show his magnanimity, and then Yang Feng was received by the royal family, in recognition of his feelings for the British people. He was specially awarded the Order of Honour and Knighthood.

Then Hercules took off again and flew across the Atlantic Ocean and landed in New York.

At this time, JY in the United States can be said to be truly significant, the tentacles of the consortium have extended to all corners of American society, and the number of employees working for all the companies under the JY consortium in the United States has reached millions, plus their families and their relatives. This is a force capable of ousting the president at any time, if you add those Yang Feng's collaborators, such as DuPont, Dow, General Motors... It can be said that Yang Feng's Chinese has become a with Rockefeller, Morgan... These behind-the-scenes monarchs of the United States are neck and neck.

At the New York airport, Boss Yang first released a stinky and long speech, the main content is actually only one, peace, what the American people need is peace, the vast Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean are the natural barrier of the United States of America, even if the world is full of wars, this is still the pure land on earth.

"No country will have the ability to go on expeditions across 10,000 kilometers, and the war is so far away that it's like a movie, and the American people will always enjoy peace and tranquility." At the end of the speech, Boss Yang said with certainty.

In fact, whether it is the United States, Europe, or even China and Japan, it can be said that all the people on this earth, including the two fiancées behind him, think that this guy is running to the United States to ask for help and encourage the United States to start a war against Japan, and it can be said that there is no suspense at this point, and if the United States intervenes in the war at this time, the Japanese will have no choice but to admit defeat and withdraw their troops from China.

But no one expected that Boss Yang actually encouraged the United States to watch the excitement on the side, and even Roosevelt was confused by him, and when he learned the news of Yang Feng's coming, Roosevelt felt very happy, and finally came to a powerful ally to help him fight against congressional isolationism.

"Mr. Yang, you are a very special friend to the United States, or the United States has a special relationship with you, and the aggression that China is facing now makes all friends who have respect for you feel very indignant, and even if you ask for help, I think there will be many people in the United States who are willing to provide you or the Chinese people with all forms of help." During the meeting between the two, Roosevelt said tentatively.

"Your Excellency, I am very touched by the friendship of the American people with the Chinese people, but it is precisely because we are friends that we do not want the United States to be dragged into this war, or to be dragged into this war at this time, and what I need your country to do is to use force to deter and ensure the smooth passage of North China's external channels." Yang Feng said.

"You can rest assured that the Pacific Fleet will do its best to protect the shipping routes from Tientsin and Qingdao to the United States, and any obstruction of trade routes will be regarded as a formal declaration of war against the United States." Roosevelt said without hesitation that now one-third of the farmers in the United States use Jinyuan's seeds, almost all farmers use the organophosphorus pesticides and organochlorine pesticides supplied by Jinyuan, all hospitals in the United States use Jinyuan's special drugs, blended products and down products fill every household in the United States, and the American aviation industry is heavily dependent on Jinyuan's aviation materials, and China is also importing a large number of American industrial products, Pingjin imports more than 20 million tons of gasoline and diesel every year, countless machines and steel, cotton, and even grain, There are more than 200,000 American citizens working in Pingjin, and almost all American shipping companies own merchant ships on this route, and if the Japanese cut off this route, the Americans will have no choice but war.

"Your Excellency President Xie Luxie, please tell the members of the parliament on my behalf that I don't want the United States to intervene in this war, but that it is not yet time, as long as the trade routes are guaranteed, I have the ability to protect China, but Southeast Asia," Yang Feng shrugged and said: "To be honest, I think the British have too many colonies, and it is not a big deal to have one or two less, as for the fact that the Japanese will become more uncontrolled after getting the oil from Southeast Asia."

I think it's the opposite, they'll be easier to control, a person with a family and a business, there's always more to worry about than a beggar who has nothing, a long route of five thousand kilometers, fragile like a pulled hair, and we just put our hands on it and it breaks.

Believe me, Your Excellency, Japan that gets Southeast Asia is the most obedient Japan. Boss Yang said like a god.

"But what about their ambitions?" Roosevelt was clearly a man of understanding, and he knew that Japan was not a country that could be measured by common sense, and that after gaining Southeast Asia, Japanese ambitions would certainly inflate like balloons.

"Your Excellency, with the deployment of five thousand Liberator bombers in Peiping, any ambition will be turned to ashes under the flames of napalm." Yang Feng said with a cruel smile. (To be continued......)
