743. Declare War!
Zhou Weiguo listened to Liu Yuan's words and smiled, "At this time, it's not what I plan to do, but what the chairman plans to do." Japan is going to be an enemy of Britain and the United States, and if China can't seize the opportunity......"
Liu Yuan nodded approvingly, indeed, this is really a great opportunity for China, but he is still a little worried, "Britain was beaten badly by Germany, and the United States was attacked by Japan again, at least for now, it should be Japan that has the advantage, right?" ”
"Japan's advantage, most of Japan's troops are here." Zhou Weiguo smiled, "So, Japan set the battlefield in the southeast part of the Pacific Ocean. If I went to fight the mainland of the United States, I am afraid, it would have ended a long time ago. ”
The news of the declaration of war by the United States against Japan, as well as the news of Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States, caused an uproar at home.
Everyone knows that the current situation in Japan is very good! Germany's invincibility in Europe, Japan's non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union, and Japan's actions in Southeast Asia caused many people in the country to turn to the Japanese. For these people, if they turn to the Japanese, they will not get any less.
As a result, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States.
The United States has declared war on Japan!
On December 9, Britain declared war on Japan!
Immediately afterwards, the Nationalist Government also declared war on Japan!
Japan in the Pacific Ocean, guilty of public outrage.
The mood of the Chinese people began to boil, and some knew that the defeat of Japan was not far off.
Zhou Weiguo put down the newspaper and sighed, the Anti-Japanese War began, Lao Jiang had concerns about Japan, because Japan was at war and did not declare it, so he also chose not to declare war. However, Japan has already invaded China, invaded so much of China's territory, and killed the Chinese people. On the contrary, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, although weak, declared war on Japan a few years ago.
Some people say that Lao Chiang has too many concerns, and if war is declared, all sources of materials will be cut off.
Perhaps, this is one of the reasons.
So, there will be a roundtable meeting in Hong Kong.
……
London
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister! China, too, declared war on Japan. ”
Churchill nodded, "Got it." I will write to Roosevelt with a proposal for the formation of a united front. ”
"Yes."
……
White House
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Prime Minister of England, a letter addressed to you."
Roosevelt took the document, looked at Churchill's letter, and squinted his eyes, the formation of the Allies was imperative.
……
China declared war on Japan, and the atmosphere between China and Japan suddenly became tense.
Zhou Weiguo looked at the map and wondered whether Japan would continue to operate in China. And then whether he should do it or not. You know, since December 7, Japan has been rampant in Southeast Asia.
On December 8, it invaded Thailand and bombed the Philippines, and due to MacArthur's misjudgment and mishandling, most of the U.S. bombers and fighters stationed in the Philippines were destroyed, and the air defense capability was completely lost.
On the 9th, the Japanese invaded Malaya.
On the 10th, the Philippines landed and attacked Guam, but the US and Philippine troops were limited in strength, poorly equipped and lacked training, and could not withstand the Japanese attack.
For a time, Southeast Asia was full of flames.
……
Tokyo, Japan.
"Your Majesty, the Southern Army is in Southeast Asia, everything is fine!" Hideki Tojo was heroic, standing in front of Emperor Showa, and the progress of the Southern Army in Southeast Asia was simply beyond his expectations. Although the General Staff has already deduced, things are going too well!
"Yo Si! Tojo-kun, you, good! Emperor Showa nodded with satisfaction, squinting his eyes, Southeast Asia, rich land! They will have the richest land in the Japanese Empire! With countless resources! Get stronger and stronger!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment! However, all this is the credit of the warriors on the front line! Hideki Tojo spoke, indeed, without the soldiers on the front line, it is useless to have a plan.
"That's right! But that's just the beginning, and then we're going to get the American and British garrisons out of that land! Let's have the Imperial Japanese Army, garrison these places! Own these places! ”
"Hey!"
……
Philippines
MacArthur's face was disgraced, and the number of American troops in the Philippines was small, and they could not withstand the Japanese attack at all! It was he, with an error of judgment, that led to the complete destruction of the air defense of the Philippines by the Japanese.
After decades in the army, MacArthur had never encountered such a dilemma! He, Douglas MacArthur, a top student at West Point, the youngest principal of the West Point Military Academy, and the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Philippine Army! In his right hand, holding the pistol his father had left him, MacArthur was a little confused.
"Your Excellency, General!" At this time, an adjutant barged in, looked at MacArthur, and was shocked, "Your Excellency, General! ”
MacArthur raised his head and said lonely, "What's wrong?" ”
"The submarine is ready! Your Excellency, General, please board the ship! ”
"Running away?" MacArthur snapped, closed his eyes, and sighed, "I know, I'll be over in a moment." ”
"Your Excellency, General!" The adjutant was still not reassured.
In desperation, MacArthur stood up, "I'll go now." ”
"Yes!"
……
At sunset, the sea is shining golden.
MacArthur looked lonely at the beautiful island and the last soldiers on the island, and after a salute, MacArthur got on the submarine.
……
When the war report from Southeast Asia came, everyone was very surprised, because even Britain and the United States, which were very powerful in the eyes of the Chinese, failed at the hands of the Japanese!
"This!" Liu Yuan really couldn't believe it.
"It's been peaceful for too long, and there is no defense, and the devils bombed first, destroying their air power." Zhou Weiguo explained, "Moreover, these places are only British and American colonies, and there are not many garrisons in the first place, most of them are locals, the equipment is backward, the training is poor, and it is normal that they can't resist the Japanese." ”
Liu Yuan thought for a while, "Also, if Japan attacked the United States, it would not be this result." ”
"Of course." Zhou Weiguo looked at the map, the order of the Japanese attack was the same as the order of his memory deduction, at this time, Zhou Weiguo put his mind at ease, his deduction was not wrong.
"But it's still a little unbelievable, the little devil is just crazy." Liu Yuan opened his mouth, and the progress of the Japanese in Southeast Asia really scared many people. But only a few people know that it is not that the Japanese are too strong, but that the defenders of Southeast Asia are too weak.
"Nothing." Zhou Weiguo smiled, "Because soon, the Japanese will not be able to laugh." ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhou Weiguo shook his head, did not speak, to be honest, he really did not understand where Japan's confidence came from, it could fight against the United States, and those who had read history would feel that Japan's move was simply a stinky move. But that's what Japan did, and it did it thoroughly.
