My Third Empire

Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

A military staff member walked quickly in the corridor of the White House in Washington, the capital of the United States. He came to the door of the president's office and knocked on the door of the room. With permission, he pushed open the door and walked into the president's office, standing in front of the persevering table.

"Mr. President, the Germans carried out airborne operations in Crete. The news has been confirmed that the strength is more than 4,000." This staff member handed the report to Roosevelt and briefly introduced the situation: "The Greek defenders are fighting back. We can only wait for the final result. "

"How is our paratrooper training and preparation?" Roosevelt asked, his voice a little hoarse, because the recent US battles in the Pacific have not been smooth, and the Oahu battle has been heated to the point where it has become fierce. The Japanese army has established a complete beachhead position, and a large number of Japanese infantry are advancing toward the naval port on Oahu, intending to occupy there to win a strategic initiative for the Japanese army.

But even if it is not the strategic visionary of President Roosevelt, many Americans of insight have seen the decline of the Japanese army from the Japanese attack. They are in favor of the United States to continue fighting against Japan and the United States to end the Pacific War by winning the war.

Nimitz used Oahu Island's time to fight and finally waited for his third aircraft carrier, Hornet. In this way, the number of fleet carriers in his hand has been expanded to three, which also restored the courage of the US Navy to fight again. Nimitz decided to come out and fight the Japanese fleet again.

"Mr. President, we are forming two paratroopers at the same time, the 82nd Airborne Division and the 101st Airborne Division. The training of these two divisions is very good, and new types of transport aircraft are also being developed." Bing still knows a lot. When the President asked him, he answered the questions immediately.

After thinking about it, Roosevelt asked the question he was most concerned about: "Nimitz's counterattack plan will be implemented now, is it a bit sloppy?" He himself disagreed with the action plan of the code-named sailboat this time, but After carefully analyzing the laws of the Japanese Navy's actions, Nimitz insisted on playing a decisive battle at sea in the waters near Oahu.

The U.S. Navy set off in such a mighty way, with the just-launched Bumblebee aircraft carrier, assailants and York City, forming an aircraft carrier fleet similar to the German Navy. Of the battleships, only the short cruiser and destroyer escort, but the maneuverability is very terrible, the entire fleet can go to the battlefield with a speed of more than 23 knots.

After thinking about it for a while, the staff decided not to bear the blame for Nimitz: "Mr. President, the navy ’s views are consistent with yours. You know this. But General Nimitz knows his fleet better, So this decision cannot be said to have no chance at all. "

The odds are that this is a fatal problem. Roosevelt was concerned that if Nimitz made a mistake in his counterattack, the American fleet would completely collapse and lose the power of a battle with Japan, so that the United States would lose its competition with Germany. Advantage, then the United States does not have any chance of winning the European battlefield.

However, it is clear that the United States is not ready to fight back against the Japanese fleet in the Pacific Ocean, and the time to fully prepare to fight back is three months later. At that time, most of the independent aircraft carriers built by the United States to help the United Kingdom would be launched into the war, and the dock positions needed by the United States' own subsequent aircraft carriers were moved out. In this way, aircraft carriers manufactured in the United States using new production processes will be launched quickly, one after another, as exaggerated as dumplings.

But the United States has no time to wait for these three months. If Japan waits for Oahu to fight back, then the United States will not have time to interfere with the German expansion in the Middle East and the Atlantic. Germany will successfully win Egypt and control the Suez Canal. In the Middle East, the United States will experience a new financial crisis at that time, the Jews will be completely on the side of the Germans, and the United States will become a poor second-rate country at that time.

Therefore, after Nimitz proposed his plan to seize the time to fight back at this moment, many American senior leaders supported him. Even Roosevelt did not insist on objection. After thinking, he still decided to let Nimitz go and give it a go. The United States strives for a brighter future. He authorized Nimitz to call almost all the warships that the United States could call, and went to the battlefield to fight against the Japanese joint fleet.

Just when Roosevelt was worried about whether the US fleet could win the war, the US Navy fleet was moving fast in the East Pacific. Standing on the bridge of the latest battleship USS Hornet, Nimitz stood expressionless in front of the glass window, staring at the calm sea silently.

No one knows how heavy the heavy burden on his shoulders is at this moment, and no one knows what the young and adventurous fleet commander is thinking about. He contributed to this decisive battle with all his strength, and the fleet was late, and appeared on the ocean east of Pearl Harbor.

"General, General Spruance signaled in semaphore that the entire fleet has reached the designated position and is entering the counterattack position as planned." A staff member came from behind Nimitz and reported the fleet's Latest News.

Nimitz turned around and nodded and smiled: "Trust me, the Japanese fleet will be defeated by us this time, because I am not rushing to die, but I am really sure to win the war."

The staff member was stunned. He did not expect that the general would explain such a sentence to him. He had to start to panic: "Generals, Japanese aircraft carriers and battleships are several times ours. We have no way to win this kind of war ... … "

Nimitz pointed to the stack of documents lying on the map table and smiled. He seemed to be persuading officers and sailors on the entire bridge, and he was using all his chips to persuade himself to make such a big gamble: "The Japanese Navy has been cruising in the waters near Oahu for a long time, whether they are There is not enough oil or food. There are no supplies for the Japanese on Kauai and Oahu, so as long as we fight back, the Japanese will retreat without accident. "

What he did not say was some intelligence, which was transmitted to the United States from special channels. I heard that a German official handed over a document to an American businessman in Argentina, and he received a $ 2 million benefit. This information is an evaluation report from the German technical department, which details the flight performance data packet of the Japanese zero fighter.

This information can be said to be handed over to the US government by the German government, and its purpose is to help the US stabilize its Pacific battlefield. However, the authenticity of this information cannot be confirmed, and the data in it is only very original test data, not true zero fighter data.

However, after some evaluation, the US Naval Air Force felt that it could rely on the latest p-40 fighter with improved Rolls-Royce engines and could fight the Japanese Air Force, so this is also what Nimitz decided to launch in advance. One of the important reasons for counterattack.

"Then ... General." The staff was obviously persuaded by his general. The expression on his face was a little lighter, and he said, "So, can we go home alive?"

"Of course!" Nimitz nodded with a smile and patted the shoulder of the young staff member. "I will bring you out, and naturally it is my duty to take everyone back with me."

After he finished speaking, he issued his own order again: "Tell General Spruance that the fleet will maintain its current course, send out reconnaissance planes, and confirm the safety of the waters around the fleet! Send a flag to the 1st Destroyer Fleet and let them leave The fleet sent a telegram two hours later to let the military airport on the island of Hawaii take off the plane, find the main force of the Japanese fleet and pass it back. "

The advantage of the Nimitz fleet is that Yamamoto 56 didn't even know his sudden appearance. After so many days of battle for islands, the Japanese must think that the US Navy will not appear here. And the US fleet is not the same as the original fleet, they have the support of land aircraft, as well as a new and improved engine P-40 fighter.

Moreover, although the US fleet has been attacking for a long distance, compared with the Japanese fleet that has always participated in the battle, it can definitely be said that it is waiting for work. They carry more than 400 fighters. Once some of the aircraft take off, they do not return to the aircraft carrier. port. So in terms of the number of planes, the number of American planes is not as small as the Japanese estimated.

Of course, the Japanese Navy has an absolute quantitative advantage, with 8 battleships and 4 fleet aircraft carriers. Moreover, the combat experience of the Japanese naval aviation is very rich, almost all are skilled pilots. Therefore, they are fearless and feel that the US fleet will never dare to appear near Pearl Harbor.

The tragedy is that Japan ’s second aircraft carrier fleet has left the waters near Oahu a day ago to support the troops ’attack on Darwin Port. Therefore, the absolute superiority of the Japanese navy has now ceased to exist, and the two sides are actually similar in the number of carrier aircraft, which also makes three books and fifty-six worry.

Both fleets have not found their opponents now. Spruance does not know the exact location of the Japanese carrier fleet led by General Nan Yunzhong, but only knows that Japan ’s 1st battleship squadron is shelling Oahu. Nan Yun Zhongyi does not know that the US fleet has arrived, and is still preparing to attack and bomb the US facilities on Oahu.

The rising sun rises little by little, which is really a rare good weather.
