Chapter 340: Tighten the noose
The Japanese army invaded Suiyuan in the south, which made Boss Yang angry, denouncing the wolf ambitions of the Japanese in the newspapers and radio, and clamoring for Japan to taste the super bomb again, but just when everyone was waiting to see how he destroyed the Japanese city next, people found that this time Boss Yang's behavior was very abnormal. According to his temper, the bomb should have been thrown down at this time, and it can be seen from the previous law that this goods usually start shouting when the bomb falls, but this time the bomb did not fall after the call, but the Northeast Army on the front line of Rehe and Liaoxi began to strengthen its defense.
At this time, some experts and professors came out to comment, using a large number of dazzling data to show that the strength of the northern armies is now empty, which is needless to say than they know, the Indian army, the expeditionary force, the Middle East army, the Australian army and even the Central Asian army, at least more than 500,000 elites are outside, and it is strange that the troops are not empty.
But even so, the total number of armies in the north is almost one million, and the various departments of the Northeast Army are now more than 300,000, and all of them have been reorganized according to the standards of the new army, although the new army has been transferred out, but it was also replenished immediately, this is another 300,000, and there are still more than 200,000 old troops in the hands of Han Fuyu and others, adding up to 800,000 troops, and 100,000 in the hands of Yan Xishan, which is also dependent on Yang Feng, such a strong force is enough to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese, why don't you take the opportunity to kill Shenyang?
"You don't understand that." The experts put on an omniscient face, and then began to comment on the strength of the Japanese army, especially the growth of their naval strength over the years, if the northern armies kill Shenyang, then the Japanese army will definitely attack the Chinese coast again, our country finally has a chance for development, can not destroy this good situation for a local war, the Japanese just want to prolong the oil field?
As long as they are not prepared to expand the war. Then let's wrestle with them in Suiyuan, it's nothing more than consuming some weapons and ammunition, the Eighteenth Group Army is the backbone of the Anti-Japanese War, plus the cooperation of Fu Zuoyi and Ma Hongkui, as well as the Yellow River, it's not a piece of cake to stop the Japanese.
Although this is only the words of the experts. Usually these people talk like farts, but this time people found that they really guessed correctly, whether it was Nanjing or Yang Feng, it was thunder and rain, and they shouted slogans extremely loudly, and they all wanted to bomb the Japanese mainland, but none of the planes flew over the East China Sea, but they all strengthened their own defenses.
Yang Feng is not the only one who knows the news of the service of Japan's night fighters, but also the bald guys. Including their Yamato supercarrier, a 65,000-ton behemoth, it scared people to death when they said it, not to mention that it was shocking to drive to the beach alone, and the bald guy told the Americans the news in order to be courteous.
At this moment, the Americans immediately became vigilant.
You know, they only have a total of five fleet aircraft carriers now, and although the Essex class has already begun to be built, aircraft carriers are not something that can be built in a day. Even if it were to be accelerated, it would take at least two years before it could enter service. And now the number of aircraft carriers that the Japanese have put into service has reached ten, plus the Yamato and Musashi. The Japanese aircraft carrier strength had more than doubled that of the United States, and there were still six of them under construction on their slipway, and it was only then that the US Congress discovered that Japan's naval strength seemed to be able to pose a deadly threat to the United States.
"Yang, we have to re-examine our strategy for Japan." Roosevelt said to Yang Feng, who was invited to the United States, with a solemn face.
"Your Excellency, it is true. These dwarves are so cunning that they would secretly build those two superships. Yang Feng also said with a solemn face.
"We must tighten their noose, and from now on the submarine war against Japan must be restarted, and on a larger scale, not only by the British. The submarines of the US Navy and the submarines of our Chinese Navy must also join, we can no longer let any ships of iron ore enter Japan, we can't do anything about crude oil, we still want to watch a good show, but who would have thought that the Soviets would be so unbeaten!" The thing said with a wry smile.
Roosevelt was also very depressed about this, to be honest, when the Tyumen oil fields were used to lead Japan to the Soviet Union, no one in the entire United States thought that Japan had the ability to fight there, and the long attack distance of 5,000 kilometers was simply an unbelievable thing, but the Japanese really did it, and now Rockefeller is beating his chest and regretting it!
However, Yang Feng's large-scale submarine warfare plan against Japan has caused a controversy in the US Congress, and it is obvious that the Americans are worried that the Japanese will provoke their retaliation against the United States after the most irritation, in fact, the Japanese are not stupid, and the British submarine force without any rear base cannot maintain submarine warfare in the Pacific Ocean for so many years, and if you think about it, you can see that the Americans are supporting them behind the scenes, and this base must be in the Philippines, but this is not enough to force the Japanese to start a war against the United States, after all, the threat of the Pacific Fleet is there.
Although the number of aircraft carriers in the Combined Fleet is large, a large part of them are small aircraft carriers, which are not comparable with the heavy fleet of the United States at all, and with the threat of Yang Feng, they will not start a war with the United States for this matter, and the Americans are still a little confident in this.
But now it is different, the strength of the Japanese Navy has formed an absolute superiority over the Pacific Fleet, and the service of night fighters has given them weapons against Yang Feng, and the arrival of the Tyumen oil fields has made them no longer have to worry about being cut off by the United States in crude oil supply, so it seems a little irrational to provoke them again in this situation.
"This problem is not difficult to solve, I have said a long time ago, as long as we deploy a large number of heavy bombers in China, my troops have enough ability to block their land forces in the northeast, you can understand this by looking at the assessment of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army sent back by my commander in Central Asia, General Sun Dianying, although they seem to be invincible in all battlefields, but in fact they are like a thread that is pulled to the limit, and it will break with a little force." Yang Feng said that he asked Sun Dianying to send the evaluation of his combat effectiveness to the members of the US Congress.
"Seventeen-year-olds all have children in their army, and when I first saw this report, I couldn't believe my eyes, and it's not just the Central Asian battlefield, but even the Australian battlefield, this country seems to be extremely powerful, but in fact it has reached the limit of its national strength, if they dare to go to war with the United States, we can play him to death in less than half a year." Yang Feng said with a cruel smile.
Looking at the assessment of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Army in their hands, those American congressmen turned their heads one after another, and everyone understood what it meant for even a seventeen-year-old boy to be conscripted into the army, that is to say, the blood of the Japanese had been drained, and they were now only powerful as a shell.
As Yang Feng said, they could not have the ability to break through Yang Feng's defense line in northern China, those standing divisions and regiments could not do it back then, let alone the current Japanese army, and the deployment of thousands of bombers in North China, even if the Japanese navy was strong enough to defeat the Pacific Fleet, then their homeland would be razed to the ground.
But if they are not contained now, in a few years they will be able to consolidate the areas they have already occupied, as they have done in northeastern China and Vietnam, where now a large steel plant and shipyard have been built, and in the docks of Vietnam even aircraft carriers have begun. Moreover, Japan is building a new military industrial base in India, which means that if they continue to develop, the United States will face a real empire, and I am afraid that the Japanese will not allow the Americans to stay in Asia at that time.
"You don't need to worry, the Pacific Ocean is the biggest barrier for the United States, even if there is a temporary defeat at sea, even if Pearl Harbor is lost, it doesn't matter, as long as we burn the Japanese mainland to ashes and turn all the warships on their slipway into scrap metal, with their current strength, how can they confront a super industrial empire. But if we continue to let them develop like this, once they integrate the various occupation zones and appease those countries that do not have a good opinion of the Western world in the first place, then we will have to deal with a real super-empire. Yang Feng said.
After completing his lobbying work, Boss Yang no longer cares about the votes of the US Congress, speaking of which, he now despises these guys extremely much, and has no responsibility at all, isn't it possible to cause a war and kill a few people? The United States has a population of more than 140 million, and a few million deaths are nothing, and if you don't see that Japan, which has a population of 60 million, has almost three million casualties, and you don't even blink a brow, this is the real warrior.
With contempt for the Americans, this cargo flew to Burbank, using Whittle's engine, Lockheed has created a jet fighter, a centrifugal turbojet engine with a single thrust of one ton with twin engines, both in shape and performance, in fact, it is not much different from the Gloucester Meteor III, but unlike the previous fighters that were manufactured with technical support provided by Yang Feng, this purely Lockheed self-designed fighter is still very immature.
However, the advent of this first jet fighter in the Western world still aroused the fanatical pursuit of Americans, although there were all kinds of minor problems, but the flight speed of more than 800 kilometers was enough to make up for everything, and now American newspapers even boasted that the United States has become the king of the jet field.
Of course, what they didn't know was that the German jet fighter had already made its first successful flight half a year earlier. (To be continued......)
