Chapter 367: Bombing New York - Are You Afraid of the Surname?! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)

On the evening of November 25, the White House.

"Mr. President, Norfolk Base Commander Oliver . Rear Admiral Perry reported that the Navy and Marines had repelled two rounds of bombardment by Chinese and Japanese warplanes invading the base...... However, it lost three shallow-water heavy gunboats such as the USS Essex, USS Wasp, and USS Lexington, three sailing warships such as USS Boston, USS Richmond, and USS Philadelphia, as well as more than 1,000 Navy officers and sailors missing or killed!

In addition, the coal tanks, ammunition depots, and oil depots at the Norfolk base, as well as an airfield under construction and a large shipyard, were damaged in the bombing...... One of the oil depots was shot and caused a fire, which is still burning. โ€

With the secretary's report, Andrew . President Jackson's mind sank to the bottom.

He had expected that the war in Texas would not spill over to the United States itself, which had been fought over Texas between the United States and Mexico, as well as the Japanese diaspora backed by the Ming Dynasty.

It's just a fight for Texas, and in Texas, at most, it's enough to fight in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. But why did Daming use the shell of Japanese expatriates to burn the flames of war to the United States?

What does the Ming Empire want to do?

Could it be that Daming is not only plotting against Texas, but also wants to further encroach on American land? Is this possible?

The United States is a country with a white population of 20 million, and the people are quite strong, known as "everyone has a gun"!

Once the Ming Dynasty provokes the United States, it is possible for the United States to fully mobilize and arm!

At that time, the whole of the United States will become a huge barracks, and the number of US Army troops may reach 1 million or even 2 million!

With so many troops...... The United States could even conquer all of North America.

Although the Ming Empire had a population of three to four hundred million, almost 20 times that of the United States, its industrial power may not be comparable to that of the United States.

But after all, Daming is far away from the United States, and now he wants to compete with Britain for world hegemony, so there is no reason to fight with the United States at all!

But why did Da Ming do this?

Of course, the president of the United States will not understand that the "god man" Zhuge Wuzhong, who single-handedly established the new Ming Dynasty, regarded the United States as the number one competitor of the Ming Dynasty as early as before the United States was established.

Measures to contain the United States began as early as the lifetime of King Zhuge Wuzhong - otherwise why would King Zhuge Wuzhong send people thousands of miles away to establish a new Manchurian overseas province?

Isn't his old man's purpose to take Alaska in the United States, and at the same time open the passage south to Oregon (to take the Vancouver area)? If he hadn't died sooner than he expected, the western part of Oregon and California would have been taken long ago, so that the United States would have to lose at least three more states, including Oregon, Washington, and California, plus a Hawaii in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and the United States would not only lose five states, but would also "lose" the Pacific Ocean......

Although King Zhuge Wuzhong was not able to complete the great cause of containing the United States during his lifetime, he passed on the "anti-American ideology" to his descendants. Although the descendants of King Zhuge Wuzhong are more conservative on the issue of anti-British, they are anti-American and do not contain lakes at all!

Not only was he tough on Oregon, but he also took advantage of the opportunity to support Agustin I as emperor by immigrating to California en masse, while arming Mexico against the United States.

Regarding the anti-American method proposed by Zhuge Weidao to bomb New York, the members of the military division of the Zhuge family also unanimously agreed!

Because this incident hit the white capital circle with Jewish financial capital as the core, of course, Zhuge military advisers like to see.

The people of the Zhuge family have all grown into big capitalists, and they know everything about the white capital circle, and they also know how this game is played - there are two capital circles on this timeline, one is the white capital circle with Jewish financial capital as the core, and the other is the East Asian capital circle with the eight great families of the Ming Dynasty as the core.

Within these two circles, capital can be said to be "borderless". This is especially evident in white capital circles, where capital flows are closely linked to the rise and fall of a country.

But the relationship between these two capital circles is not so harmonious...... Countries want to compete for hegemony between countries, and of course they want to compete for hegemony between capital circles, after all, there is only one world!

And the Zhuge family is that people have come to the conclusion from the development of the new Ming Dynasty itself - capital can only be combined with the big countries to grab the greatest benefits.

And looking at the white civilization circle, there is actually only one United States that can be compared to the Ming Dynasty!

Countries like Britain and the Netherlands are too small, and although they can be extremely friendly to capital, when the industrial revolution develops to the second and third times, Britain and the Netherlands are too small to accommodate real big capital.

The size of the Rakshasa is large enough, but her effective territory is not large, far less than the United States, and there are too many historical problems in the Rakshasa Empire, and it will be difficult to attract capital if it is not completely solved...... Maybe there won't be a rakshasa anymore!

So the United States is the last and most ideal home for white capital...... And the Ming has to find ways to stop the flow of white capital to this chosen country.

Therefore, the real mission of the "Texas Samurai" and the "Texas Seaman" is to make the paradise of white capital in the United States less fragrant.

Just when US President Jackson was heartbroken by the loss of the Norfolk base and confused by the true intentions of the Ming Dynasty, the Texas Naval Air Detachment, which had already withdrawn its carrier-based aircraft, once again received a direct order from Admiral Zhuge Weidao of the Pacific Fleet from the long-wave radio station of the Pacific Fleet of the Ming Navy based in Port Yin Lizabeth -- to bomb New York tomorrow!

"Chief Saigo, orders from the Admiral of the Pacific Fleet!"

On the bridge of the Akagi aircraft-carrying frigate, the communications officer handed over the telegram he had just received to you, Saigo Takamori, who commanded the Haizi Air Detachment as the general of the Texas Armyโ€”this arrangement seems a bit strange, but it is an order from Zhuge Weidao.

The current Texas Sea and Texas Land are all under the control of the Admiral Division of the Pacific Fleet!

Saigo Takamori took the telegram and looked at it, and then looked at Wang Wen, the chief of staff of the detachment beside him.

Wang Wen is nominally the chief of staff, but in fact he is the minister sent down by Zhuge Weidao, and he has to control every move of Saigo Takamori. If there is really anything wrong, you have to report it to Zhuge Weidao.

Moreover, Wang Wen also has direct jurisdiction over all carrier-based aircraft pilots!

It can be said that without his nod, Saigo Takamori would not have been able to command the fleet to fight a naval battle.

"Since it's an order from the Admiral's Gate...... Then let's do it! Of course, Wang Wen had to listen to Zhuge Weidao's orders, and immediately said, "Xixiang-kun, our current location is only two hundred nautical miles away from New York. As long as the current course and speed are maintained, the attack on New York should be launched tomorrow morning! โ€

"Alright then!" Saigo Takamori thought for a moment, "We can sail northeast tonight...... Avoid the American fleet that is following us, so that we can go around to the southeast of New York early tomorrow morning. โ€

"Okay, that's it!" Wang Wen thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow we will complete the air raid on New York first...... Then move to the east, put on the posture of going to bomb London, and suddenly turn south, and should be able to throw off the American fleet that is following us. โ€
