Chapter 930 Chaos

When the United States was completely chaotic, their fleet did not know what to do, and still followed the original plan, went straight to Gibraltar, and smoothly entered the Mediterranean.

Italy and Germany had already learned that the combined Anglo-American fleet had entered Gibraltar, and they were also very nervous, and urgently deployed forces to meet the attack on the sea. They thought that the United States and Britain were preparing to open a third battlefield.

In the face of a huge fleet, four aircraft carriers, and more than a dozen battleships, what they did the most was a plan for submarines and fleets to meet the enemy. As for the coastal cities, they have already built strong enough coastal defenses.

Originally, Italy's artillery manufacturing technology was ahead of the United States and Britain, and after obtaining the self-tightening artillery technology of the weapons company, Italy's artillery is now far superior to other countries.

Not to mention anything else, in the past few months, the modification of all warships has made this navy without aircraft carriers the fleet with the farthest shelling distance, the sharpest air defense, and the fastest speed in the world.

The reason why the Anglo-American combined fleet was allowed to enter the Mediterranean Sea was to give them a little bit of a powerful look, and to strive to inflict a heavy blow on the Anglo-American fleet in one fell swoop.

The battle turned out to be as Lao Mo expected, a week of battleship battles caused heavy losses to the American and British forces, and only one of the four aircraft carriers was left in the United States, and the rest were all hit and sunk by submarines in the confusion.

The tragic naval battle shocked the world, the US army was attacked by German submarines in continuous operations, all the supply ships were attacked, the aircraft of the aircraft carrier was useless, in the face of Italy's strong air defense, vulnerable, few planes escaped back from each attack, and in the continuous attack of long-range artillery, one after another fast warships were sunk, which eventually led to the fleet's defense being torn apart.

After being frightened back by heavy artillery fire close to the coast, and finally bitten by the Italian battleship group, had to fight head-on. The combined Anglo-American fleet fought very hard.

Italy used long-range artillery bombardment, torpedo destroyers and submarines firing torpedoes, and dozens of torpedo shock formations at a time, and at the cost of a dozen destroyers and a dozen submarines, the submarines approached the aircraft carrier. The close range was all over, and three aircraft carriers were sunk, causing the combined British and American fleets to collapse instantly, and only twelve battleships escaped back, each wounded.

In all battles, six battleships, twelve heavy cruisers, thirty-one destroyers, and twenty frigates were sunk. Italy paid a similar price. But the main battleships were there, but they also paid the price when breaking through the battleship group, and if it weren't for the fact that there were enough submarines and attacked the supply fleet of the British and American fleets, it was not certain who would lose or who would win.

The most critical part of the battle was that the aircraft of the aircraft carrier did not play a big role, and because of the speed, it was chased by Italian warships, which led to the final continuous loss of fast warships, and was driven into the ambush area of the submarine. It was hit hard.

This naval battle immediately changed the camp of the world, and there were more Axis powers. Countries that had remained neutral, but secretly supported the Allies, reversed course and began to truly remain neutral and wait and see again.

The great victory in the naval battle inflicted heavy losses on the superior naval power of Britain and the United States, and although it was not defeated, it immediately weakened the strength of the naval defense. Even the German fleet felt the pressure lighten suddenly.

Italy, on the other hand, suffered 1,000 enemy casualties and 800 self-inflicted losses, but also did not reap the benefits, and nearly forty warships and submarines were lost. Let them leave the Mediterranean without strength for a short time, and those battleships alone will not do.

The reason for the loss of the combined Anglo-American fleet was very simple, they miscalculated the speed and air defense of the Italian battleships. Coupled with artillery, not to mention that people can seize the T-shaped position, the firing range is still far, far greater than the range of their artillery. When a fast battleship comes out of the ranks, it will be covered by the opponent's superior firepower, and if it doesn't do anything, it will have to endure the torment of the shelling, and one of them will be accidentally hit by an armor-piercing projectile and sunk 20,000 meters away.

The fiasco of the warships put the United States in a position where it had to shrink its defenses and speed up the production of warships in order to fight again. But the economic crisis in China has been out of control, countless consortia have been attacked, headquarters have been ransacked, and personnel have been slaughtered, so that Roosevelt has to give up everything and stabilize the situation first.

Troops were stationed in various cities, and martial law was imposed throughout the country. Those who have lost their fortunes in private equity and the housing market have not stopped committing suicide these days. They can't live anymore. And those who did not die were reduced to beggars, and they had to sell their belongings when they ate.

As Dong Ku expected, the only one that was saved, but the person was seriously injured and hospitalized, became Roosevelt's only lifeline, and after three consecutive days of negotiations in the hospital, the Eurasian Development Bank once again took out two billion dollars to save the market, and together with Shengtong, who still had the strength to come up with one billion, took control of the dollar management committee and the Federal Reserve.

The elder Morgan also had the strength to help, and at the last moment, he also joined the ranks, taking out the $500 million that was not looted, and joined the ranks of bailing out the city. As for their own losses, they have no place to ask for them for the time being. We can only hope that we can revitalize the US economy and make it back.

But the depression can't be stopped, so many industries that have gone bankrupt because of the property market are like dominoes, quickly spreading to other industries, and under the impetus of the turmoil, countless investors have left, and it is even more out of control.

No one cares about the goods in the shops, and the finished products in the factory are piled up in warehouses and no one buys them. The mine has also stopped production, smelting, processing, all the enterprises have stopped production one after another, and there are countless people who have gone bankrupt directly because of debts, and the unemployed people are everywhere, looking for jobs, but they can't find a factory to start.

Even the hotel has been impacted, the number of guests staying in the hotel has dropped sharply, and the consumption has been sluggish in an instant, making the bosses look at the desolation of the door and sigh.

After being anxious, Roosevelt finally realized that two scourges had pitted the United States. One is the previously popular private investment company, which has cheated billions of dollars and bankrupted countless people. The other is the property market, which not only cheated hundreds of millions of dollars with the situation of advance payment, but also cheated those material suppliers, leaving them with nothing to return and completely bankrupt. Under the chain reaction, more debtor companies were affected, and all capital chains were completely broken, resulting in an economic storm that was stronger than 30 years.

But what about Zhilu Dao? We can only maintain law and order on the one hand, and start to implement new policies on the other hand, stimulate the market, hoping to restore the downturn in the market as soon as possible and get out of the depression.

At a time when the United States is in the midst of an economic crisis that is spreading around the world. Tens of billions of dollars have evaporated out of thin air, and the dollar has repeatedly depreciated, making it difficult to recover in a short period of time.

At this time, the war between Soviet Russia and Germany had fallen into a stalemate, and the bearded man was also ruthless, with sufficient supplies of oil and materials. Recruits who had not even been trained entered the battlefield, restocked Moscow, Stalingrad and other places, and fought with the Germans room by room in the city, so tragic and bloody that these places became real meat grinders, and thousands of people died every day.

Because of this, countless artillery pieces and weapons were captured by the Germans, filling a large amount of the German army's attrition. The German offensive was also unable to break the stalemate in a constant exchange of deaths. Their sharpness was being worn out, and it was difficult for them to give full play to the advantage of a quick assault, and they fell into a stalemate of adding fuel to the tactics.

Compared with the Soviet-German war, the victorious Anglo-French forces in North Africa began to open up a third battlefield in the event of the defeat of their warships, and planned to open up a new battlefield in Spain.

Franco had been wavering since the start of the war, and finally saw that Germany had entered Soviet Russia and victory was in sight. He sent troops to attack Tangier in an attempt to reclaim Gibraltar, which had been under British control for more than two centuries.

After that, he dispatched the Phalangists. formed the Blue Army, wore the uniform of the German army, and went to fight in Soviet Russia, but there was still a way back, saying that it was not the same as standing on the German side to participate in the war.

This annoyed Churchill, who had tried to prevent Spain from turning to Germany and Italy. The strong support for Spain, both economically and materially, has allowed it to remain neutral. And now he secretly sent troops into the Soviet-German battlefield to help Germany fight Soviet Russia. Therefore, he wanted to put the battlefield in Spain and let Spain make a choice, whether to rely on the Allies or the Germans.

Although Spain sent volunteers, he did not dare to let Gibraltar become an area controlled by Germany and Italy, that was the only way to enter the Mediterranean, once controlled, Italy and other countries were equivalent to an additional natural barrier, which was a big obstacle for the Allies.

Even if he understood Spain's reason for fighting Soviet Russia, which was the backstage of supporting their domestic left-wing forces, it would be too dangerous for him to allow Spain to turn to Germany and Italy.

Whether this plan can be implemented, whether Germany will send troops from France into Spain, he can't say now, while continuing to block the sea route, he began to make preparations to see how Spain reacts.

At this time, the only clear battle situation was India, which had already fallen into the hands of the advance army, and the Japanese army, driven by the advance army, entered Pakistan with great success and occupied the entire territory of Pakistan in just one month.

The advance army still maintained a steady pace, pressing in, building at the same time, and transporting civilians to the territory. There were many wars in the country, more and more people were fleeing, and they had nowhere to go, so they followed the highways, followed the mountains and forests, entered Siberia, entered Vladivostok, entered Korea, entered Yunnan, or simply went from Guangzhou. The state entered the incense. Harbor.

There is only one place for these people, and that is to be sent by advance military planes and trucks to Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and other places, as well as India, and thousands of refugees are transported to the areas controlled by these advance forces every day. Of course, there were also a large number of Jews inside, and the Jews who had fled from the Volga, except for those who were willing to stay in the industrial areas and oil refineries of Central Asia, were airlifted to these places.

They were on flights that had not yet appeared, on passenger planes converted from large bombers of the Advance Army, and on large transport planes.

The reason why the airboat was not used was that the news of the airboat could not be allowed to leak, and Dong Ku wanted to keep the secret of the airboat until the belligerents had been emptied, and then it would not matter.

At this time, the Japanese troops entering Pakistan still did not have enough strength to avoid the pursuit of the advance army, and while plundering the wealth of Pakistan, they approached Iran, trying to get the Germans to intervene and make a way for Zasa Khan to reach Bandar Abbas in the Persian Gulf.

This is the route that Hideki Tojo negotiated with the base camp, the route to leave the land. They were pursued by the advance army all the way, and in less than a few hours after they had conquered the coastal towns, Bibao was captured by the advance army, and it was clear that the advance army would not allow them to approach the coastline.

After the occupation of Malacca, the Japanese warships attacked Australia while sending warships to rescue Hideki Tojo's large force. But when they were close to Dutigorin in India, they were sunk by the long-range artillery of the advance army, and after damaging a battleship, they never dared to approach the coast again.

When Hideki Tojo was driven off the peninsula and fled to Pakistan, they decided to leave the country in Iran, where Germany had a strong presence. This is also known as Bandar Abbas.

As for Karachi, Pakistan, which has been occupied by the advance army, and has built up shore and air defenses, there is no need to worry about leaving from there.

Sun Tao was very nourishing during this time, once the Japanese army gained a firm foothold, he attacked, and the Japanese army also cooperated with it, and Sun Tao attacked. They retreated, marched quickly to the area behind, widened the distance with the advance army, and resisted the attack of the advance army with the puppet army composed of young and strong people gathered along the way.

Of course. They still don't know what to do, but there are already tens of thousands of Huya soldiers and Flying Tiger team members lurking in the direction of their advance, sniping the enemy's firepower for them, sneaking inside to plant remote-controlled bombs, destroying artillery positions, blowing up bunkers, and opening the way for the Japanese army.

The Japanese army's request was rejected by Lao Xi. His answer was simple, Iran was neutral. They are not allies, so. It is not possible to get the Iraqi army out of the way, nor is it involved in Iran's handling of the Japanese incident.

This reply made Hideki Tojo furious, and after consulting with the base camp, he brazenly launched a surprise attack on Iran, heading straight for Bandar Abbas.

As soon as the Japanese army moved, Sun Tao pressed in on all fronts. Following the Japanese army's hind buttocks, they quickly defeated Pakistan, but did not penetrate deep into Afghanistan.

The Japanese also used all their strength to advance all the way to Bandar Abbas, dropping most of the looted and trying to get there as fast as they could.

Meantime. After several days of attacking in Australia, the British army and the local puppet army were completely defeated, and the whole of Australia was occupied by the Japanese when the warships could not rush to help. At this point, only some islands in the Pacific Ocean were left unoccupied by the Japanese army, and the large ones had to be occupied completely.

At this time, the Japanese began to shift their attention, sending troops to capture those small islands and garrison them, and on the other hand, sending a large number of warships to Bandar Abbas, ready to meet Hideki Tojo.

Iran's resistance was very weak, and it took less than a month for the British army and Soviet Russia to flank Iran, which would have more than 300,000 Japanese troops and 450,000 puppet troops, and their strength was no worse than that time, because they were eager to flee for their lives, and with the assistance of the Huya warriors and members of the Flying Tigers, their attack was sharp and fast, and they reached Bandar Abbas in just one week.

The madness of the Japanese made both the British and French forces and the German army very jealous. They have already seen that Japan is like a mad dog, it will not care about anything else, and the German army does not dare to get too close to Japan, because it is unwilling to offend the advance army, although it is already known that the advance army has sold weapons to Soviet Russia, but the arms company has given them greater assistance. Therefore, it is better to have one less strong enemy than one more, so I will not participate in this Iran incident at all.

Of course, Zasa Khan would not give in, he was able to withstand the oppression of Britain and Soviet Russia for a while, let alone Japan.

However, his combat effectiveness was no longer at a level, and he could not stop the attack of the Japanese army at all, and he suffered heavy losses.

Needless to say, Sun Tao's attack speed was so simple, the Japanese army occupied a place in front for no more than five hours, as long as the reconnaissance of the Japanese warship group was not close to the coast, then five hours later it would be plundered by the Japanese army in the local area, and he would take it.

The Japanese army had just taken Bandar Abbas a week later, and it was already known that the Japanese fleet had entered the Strait of Hormuz, and Sun Tao's army marched at a steep speed, advancing rapidly along the coast, and less than two hours after the Japanese army rushed into Bandar Abbas, they approached the city and launched a rapid and fierce attack, so that the Japanese army had to abandon Bandar Abbas, join the inland army, and continue to flee westward.

Zasa Khan found that he was powerless against the Japanese army, and the advance army that followed him was only aimed at the Japanese army, and did not even touch their broken up lines, and he felt a little at ease. Later, he met with the representatives sent by Sun Tao and learned that the advance army had no intention of occupying their land, but only wanted to pursue and kill the Japanese army, but asked to keep the supply line, fifty kilometers wide.

At the same time, he came up with some conditions that Zasa Khan could not refuse, such as oil and grain, as a condition of borrowing and trading them to Iran at a parity price. And return the weapons plundered by the Japanese army, without a penny.

Of course, Zasa Khan will not refuse, although this is very dangerous, but he knows that the Japan that he can't defeat will be fought by the advance army, let alone confrontation, as long as the other party really comes according to the agreement, then he will not do anything against the county's forward supply line.

Just when the Japanese army was chased by the thousands of troops under the order, like a lost dog, fleeing everywhere like a mad dog, the chaotic situation changed again.

Bermuda broke out in the War of Independence, and in just two days, all the British were slaughtered, and Barker, the local aboriginal leader, declared independence from British colonization.

As soon as the news came out, an armed group in the Bahamas had formed a political axe and declared the establishment of the country.

Before the news could be digested by the world, a fierce war of independence broke out in Hawaii. The original Native Hawaiians launched a war against the American army that seized their land, and several islands of Hawaii broke out at the same time, and the attack was so fast that they didn't even have time to leave the harbor confusion, and in a short time, the Hawaiian War of Independence was completed. Some of the U.S. warships were also captured by the ships, and Pearl Harbor had been burned to the ground, and the few remaining U.S. troops had been evacuated.

The moment the power call from the Kingdom of Hawaii was issued, Roosevelt was furious and suddenly felt that this was not an accident. The domestic economy has completely entered a depression, although the bailout could not stop the outbreak of the depression, and at this meeting, these events broke out, obviously premeditated.

"Do whatever it takes, take Hawaii back!!"

He brazenly ordered. With the outbreak of the economic crisis, war is the best way to divert the attention of the people, and since Italy cannot be eradicated in a short time, then turn to Hawaii. Not to mention that the land has been occupied, it is more likely that it is the driving force of some powerful force. (To be continued......)
