940 Attack on America!(1/2)
ps: The new year is here. I wish you all good luck and wealth!
Failed. In just one week, it was unimaginable.
Lieutenant General Short's gray temples set off an old face without blood. In his red eyes, his long-term staying up late, he was not only tired, but also helplessness and self-blame, as if today's failure was caused by him.
Just a few kilometers ahead, the imposing amphibious assault ship pointed the muzzle accurately at the hillside where the headquarters was located, and the helicopter loudspeaker that was almost close to their foreheads. The shout that made people's ears look deaf.
Extremely harsh.
A colonel who was angry and embarrassed shouted: "Damn it, it's so hateful! I'll beat him down now!"
Although most of the main forces at the southern end of Oahu were defeated, there were still at least 30,000 people. They were either blocked and could not enter or exit the mountain fortifications, or they continued to fight among the densely forested mountains.
If you don’t have any resistance, it’s obviously wrong.
Just around the headquarters, at least two air defense battalions still have troops, and there are even more than a dozen 75mm anti-aircraft guns that have not been used. To deal with the low-altitude helicopter, you only need to use a machine cannon to suddenly fire it.
It's knocked down.
Lieutenant General Short waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Okay! That doesn't make much sense! We must consider more soldiers."
"But General! Are you really going to surrender to those annoying yellow-skinned monkeys?! We still have enough troops to ensure your safety! We can still fight to the death with them!"
Not only the colonel, but many other officers showed puzzled expressions on their faces. They all knew that the general was such a tough old man, and his will was absolutely unshakable.
Lieutenant General Short slowly raised his head and said word by word: "I will never surrender! But as the commander of the entire Hawaii defense operations, I must take my due responsibility! In addition, I have no right to give the warriors.
You have fulfilled your responsibilities.”
Everyone felt bitterness and helplessness in their mouths. They heard that the general was not very surrendered. There was only one possibility--he wanted to use his own death to express his will, but he did not want to see unnecessary sacrifices.
No matter how nice it is, you can tell whether it is appropriate or not based on the situation you face.
The Chinese had easily defeated the two fortresses without using the most powerful weapons. The four divisions had trapped the other two divisions to death in the mountains and could not move. The six divisions had nearly 100,000 main force,
The cut was cut and lost the air superiority and sea superiority. Even the initiative in land combat was suppressed by the opponent's powerful sea and air power. It was completely impossible for a large-scale attack to succeed under the suppression of the opponent's powerful sea and air power.
In particular, the other party also made it clear that once the US military fights to the death, the powerful weapons they have not used will be used decisively. Not to mention anything else, just small cannons can easily use them.
The soldiers who entered the fortifications deep into the mountains were killed, and they ended up like that. As generals, they had seen them before.
The entire headquarters has been completely surrounded by others, and the reason why they have not been killed is that they have kept their hands.
Lieutenant General Short did not doubt the other party's since the war between China and the United States began, American prisoners of war on every battlefield have received the greatest advantage, which is a huge difference compared to those Japanese who were killed.
Several strong-willed officers shook their heads firmly: "We would rather die than surrender to the Chinese!"
Lieutenant General Short did not intend to argue with them, and waved his hand and said, "The Chinese will not leave us too much time. You can think about it."
After saying that, his upright waist and back lost all his spiritual support like a withered tree, and became hunched and weak. He turned around and slowly entered his office inside. A group of officers were left looking at each other.
On the sea, the two aircraft carriers moved from the north to the front of Pearl Harbor. From a distance, you can see the rising fireworks of Oahu Island. The bombing of artillery fire between the two sides was already very sparse. The amphibious troops of the ocean fleet that had already occupied the upper hand.
The tide of the US military was pouring towards the increasingly narrow line of defense.
Win.
Zhu Bin was quite satisfied with this result. Just calculate the time and know that if you want to do this, you will be lucky. Especially when you think of the powerful and fearful strength of the United States, all the commanders and soldiers will not fight.
Spiritually, master every detail.
Raising his hand to look at the time, ten minutes have passed, and there has not been a reply from the other side, Zhu Bin was a little impatient and said to Ouyang Ge: "Give them another ten minutes. If there is no clear reply, any means are allowed to be used thoroughly
Kill them. Humph, Americans should not regard our tolerance as bargaining chips for negotiation!”
The massacre that does not directly use weapons of mass destruction is just that he intends to keep his "pacifist" disguised face and continue to fool the top scientists into working hard - no matter what, those people are mostly Western
The tendency in the human race cannot be eliminated in a short time. It is easy to see which end is worthwhile to exchange the lives of a group of worthless American soldiers for the careful work and sincere support of tens of thousands of scientists.
This is not pedantic, nor is it even fools who can tell. The willing assistance of a group of elites with high IQs and the willingness to force others to work by relying solely on massacre and the kind of person who is more likely to achieve results.
Also with world-class scientific research teams and working conditions, the City of Light has countless inventions and achievements every day. However, many of the German scientists, who are the largest in this century, are passively slacking off, and many powerful weapons include atomic bombs.
The research process has been delayed.
His statement inadvertently made others feel a little relaxed and comforted. Whether Jiang Baili or Chen Shaokuan, they are not war madmen like bloodthirsty monsters in their bones. Their cultivation and mind cannot bear to see a group of peers who are meaningless sacrifices.
In a head-on battle, of course, each other is using everything. Now that the winner is decided, there is no need to kill without any sense of accomplishment. Not only does it have any sense of accomplishment, it is easier to lead the troops to an uncontrollable tyranny, and from the long run
It is definitely not a good thing. Zhu Bin is able to be sober and calm, which is a blessing for the entire army.
But, I only gave it ten minutes, a little less!
Ouyang Ge firmly obeyed the order not only because his origin decision had no room for bargaining, but also because he knew how urgent the current situation was, Hawaii must seize and master it completely as soon as possible and build a stable bridgehead for attacking the United States. And the United States
People are never willing to throw away this Pacific gate. If you delay for one more minute, you will increase the danger of one minute.
He immediately passed Zhu Bin's decision to the front troops, and the helicopter who shouted faithfully told the Americans this deadline, whether to continue to resist or surrender, you have not much time left!
A few minutes after Lieutenant General Short returned to the office, the person in the command room suddenly heard a dull gunshot from inside. The guard at the door hurriedly opened the door and rushed in. He saw him sitting neatly in a chair with his temples erect.
A bullet penetrated, and the muzzle was curling, and I was punished!
"General!"
The officers let out a sad exclaim, silently staring at his calm face, which clearly stated a hint of relief from relief.
Understand that this is not to drag down the entire army because of your persistence, and at the same time, officers with different ideas have enough freedom to make choices without worrying about their own ideas. Such tragic sacrifices are like a heavy burden
The pressure on everyone's hearts.
After saluting his body solemnly, the officers who chose to surrender sent representatives to respond with clear codes and raised a white flag outside the headquarters. They frankly informed him that they would ask for some time to arrange the body of Lieutenant General Short. In fact, it was also for
Some officers who are not very surrendered will fight for time to transfer.
Zhu Bin was surprised and exclaimed: "Lieutenant General Short committed suicide? He is really strong enough! But he can be considered a kind-hearted person, right?"
Jiang Baili and Chen Shaokuan sighed faintly. This is not a tragedy for the death of a rabbit. It is really, as a real soldier, it is not a bad ending to be able to die on the battlefield. It is just that the defeated general is unwilling to commit suicide, which seems a bit tragic.
.
Zhu Bin keenly noticed the emotions of the people and ordered seriously: "Tell them that we give Lieutenant General Short enough to be decent and respectful, that he is a respectable opponent."
Everyone is dead, and it is easy to say a few good things without any money. Why not do it? Besides, no one wants to be able to get such a grief when he reaches the end of his life that day.
An elite team nearby entered the U.S. Army Command as a representative, first grasping the defense of the surrendered U.S. troops. Then, as the commander of the ocean-going fleet, Ouyang Ge formally accepted their surrender and ordered them to shout to the U.S. soldiers on the other islands and mountains.
Recruiting surrenders, as for whether to comply with or not, they can do whatever they want.
Some officers who did not want to surrender moved to the north with their soldiers, where the terrain was more complex and difficult. It would be impossible to find it out for a while. Several soldiers from the southern divisions basically surrendered, but two Major General Smith were a little late.
Sometimes I retreated north along the Kaane Mountains, but as soon as I went down the mountain, I was taken away by the armored corps. After fighting for less than a day, all of them were arrested.
As the core of the Hawaiian Islands, Oahu has concentrated 80% of its military strength. Not only is the guarding force on the other islands extremely weak, but Lieutenant General Short was dead, and the command center was taken down, losing most of his confidence in resistance.
, With the attack of amphibious troops, the infiltration of the airborne troops broke through, and the resistance was quickly weakened, and soon most chose to surrender.
On Kauai, which was first attacked, more than 10,000 people were annihilated, and the remaining surrendered more than 3,000 people, less than 2,000 soldiers fought to the death, and were divided and surrounded in the central mountainous areas. After losing external support,
Their resistance is getting weaker and weaker, and it is only a matter of time before and after.
Bad news for a week was constantly hitting the nerves of the heads of the US government like a bolt from the blue. Roosevelt and the generals of the three armed forces were restless day and night, waiting for a trace of luck. But after waiting, it was
Lieutenant General Short committed suicide, nearly 200,000 soldiers of the three armies were defeated, and the bad news that the entire Hawaii was occupied.
President Roosevelt no longer had the confidence to be confident. His hair was much thinner and his spirit was much weaker. He was sent from the ocean fleet with Lieutenant General Short in the coffin and asked.
The note I sent to them was stunned.
He was stunned for five minutes, but the suppressed silence made the think tank and the generals almost breathless for the same time. In the end, Mr. Hopkins broke the silence and asked gently: "Mr. President, are we?
Should you agree to their notes?”
Roosevelt looked up and saw the generals' expressions and expressions. Obviously, everyone thought that Short's winning body should be brought back. This is the highest general who has died in the war so far, although he is dead.
He was quite frustrated, and he was considered to have to bear great responsibility for the defeat in the Battle of Hawaii, but everyone was dead. How could he continue to take the blame?
As a soldier, no one wants to end up dying with his eyes closed, right?
Nodded, Roosevelt agreed and asked: "We should give Lieutenant General Short with high respect and grief. In addition, we must consider the impact, whether it is for the military or the people. I hope,
That is positive. meaningful and should not lead to a decline in determination to support the war!”
Since the war started, the United States has paid a huge price, but it has suffered repeated defeats, with so many people killed and injured. The domestic resistance and anti-war sentiment are increasing. Now a lieutenant general has even died. We have to consider whether it will lead to the public's hearts.
Loss of morale.
Chief of Staff Marshall raised his eyebrows and said strongly: "Please rest assured, Mr. President! Our soldiers will not be shaken. We will continue to stand firmly on your side. To resist the invasion of fascist forces and evil enemies
And fight!”
Secretary of State Hull said with a serious expression: "All the United States has today's strength and dignity because we never succumb to oppression and intimidation! The American people's right to pursue freedom and democracy will be fully protected! I think, the President
Mr. Sir will definitely gain the understanding and support of all the people. General Schoter's sacrifice and the sacrifice of the soldiers are all meaningful. We firmly believe that after winning the final victory, it will always be engraved in the monument of history.
superior!"
Everyone showed firm support. Behind them were the interests and the strength of the political party, all of which were supported. This made Roosevelt feel calm, his expression was much more relaxed, and he nodded and said, "Very good! The more he was
The more united we need in difficult times, I believe that the final victory will still belong to us. So, who can tell us what we will deploy next?"
Silence, the highest decision-making group in the United States with an average age of over 60, everyone knows how much impact their speech will have.
Stark's Navy Operations Minister broke the silence: "In our recent contact with General Nimitz, he was honest and was not very sure of breaking the secret base of the Chinese in the south. With his understanding of the Chinese, his navy
