Seeing the furious look of his old boss, Struance also heaved a long sigh, picked up the telegram, and read it again carefully.

The Japanese are really crazy. Just a few days after the suicide plane came out, they started playing suicide pocket submarines again!But how is this suicide pocket submarine used?How fast?Was it launched from a large submarine or mounted on a cruiser?This telegram didn't make it clear. It seems that after returning to San Diego, I have to ask those French people. It is best to set up a special suicide weapon research team... to study what other tactics of mutual death have not been used yet. The Japanese army adopted it to prevent problems before they happen.

But that's all for the future. The current battle is going to be terrible. Now that the Bearn has been severely damaged, it is very likely that it will not be able to survive... The Joffre and the Banlvier have suffered damage, so it is estimated that they cannot be used as human shields Now, maybe it will become two burdens.

"Lieutenant General, the current situation is not good for us. We should give up fighting and retreat to San Diego first..."

"No! You can't withdraw like this!" Halsey waved his hand heavily, interrupting Struance's words. "Order all carrier-based air fleets to prepare for the attack. Tomorrow, we must let the Japanese devils know how powerful we are!"

"Also, we will send seaplanes to search for the Japanese aircraft carrier at three o'clock in the morning tomorrow. We must find our opponent first!"

"But……"

"It's nothing." Halsey glanced at his cautious assistant and sneered, "Although I was irritated by the crazy behavior of the Japanese devils, it doesn't mean that I lost my mind. I know that the current situation is not Not suitable for a decisive battle with the Japanese fleet... But, I still want to fight! I want to fight hard! It doesn't matter even if I defeat it. Because the Japanese devils are using 200 million tons of steel to fight our 6000 million tons of steel! We don't want to fight Japan should compete with them in terms of conspiracy and tricks, but should compete with them in national strength, even if they exchange three aircraft carriers for one of their aircraft carriers, Japan must be defeated in the end!"

……

"Kill the Americans! Kill the Americans! Your Majesty, onboard! Onboard! Onboard!"

On the deck of the USS Akagi aircraft carrier, Kanfu Kengoro stood in front of a brand new Bf-109T carrier-based aircraft, facing 21 Japanese boys from the Kamikaze Special Attack Squadron of the USS Akagi (one of them was the squadron leader who did not have to commit suicide. ), shouted loudly.

Today he will serve as the air commander of the air strike, commanding four kamikaze squadrons including the Akagi Kamikaze Special Attack Squadron and other fighter jets and torpedo squadrons to launch air strikes against the US-French task force.The main force of the air strike is the 80 kamikaze special attack aircraft on the four aircraft carriers.

It is different from Japan in another time and space, which didn't come up with suicide tactics such as kamikaze special attack and return torpedo until it was about to fall.Today's Japan regards suicide tactics as their trump card to defeat the enemy from the very beginning!

On the deck, the 21 members of the Akagi Kamikaze Squadron were all crying with tears in their eyes. It seemed that all of them were ready to serve the Emperor, but they didn't know that at the moment when the plane crashed into the enemy ship Will you regret it?But at that time, I am afraid that there will be no place to buy regret medicine.

After glancing at the "cannon fodder" out of the corner of his eye, Ganfu Kengoro secretly wondered in his heart, are these Japanese devils really not afraid of death, or are they just pretending to be not afraid of death because of their herd mentality?But no matter whether they are really not afraid of death or pretending not to be afraid of death, they will inevitably die today!

"My lords! Today is the time for you to dedicate your life to His Majesty the Emperor and the eternal great cause of the Great Japanese Empire!"

Kanfu Kengoro waved his hand to signal the team members to be quiet, just about to make another pre-battle mobilization, when the deck suddenly heard the sound of a sharp battle siren.Gan Fu knew that the seaplane sent out half an hour ago had spotted the US aircraft carrier!

"Gentlemen! See you at Kudanzaka!"

"See you at Kudanzaka!"

"His Majesty the Emperor! Onboard!"

叫喊声中，20个神风特攻中队的飞行员就在肝付谦五郎的注视下一一登上了为他们准备好的飞行棺材——96改神风特攻飞机和伊-190特攻飞机。随后肝付和赤城号神风特攻中队中队长迁信雄少佐也登上了各自的Bf-109T舰载机。短短几分钟后，肝付谦五郎驾驶的Bf-109T就第一个冲向了蓝天。

"Sir, five aircraft carriers have been found, two of which are still smoking! In addition, there are 31 other frigates of various types. The specific location is XX north latitude, XX longitude west."

While Gan Fu was circling the Akagi, the telegraph operator and observer Saito in the co-pilot's seat reported to him the latest situation just received.

"Yaoxi! Report to Commander Inoue, the Kamikaze Special Attack Brigade will definitely live up to the emperor's grace!" Ganfu nodded slightly, and at the same time cast his gaze on the Akagi below. This heavy aircraft carrier is racing against the wind, and all the fighter jets have already taken off. , what is now taking off is the suicide plane of the Kamikaze Special Attack Brigade.

Also watching these suicide planes take off were Fleet Commander Lieutenant Admiral Inoue Narumi and Chief of Staff Rear Admiral Kuroshima Kameto.At this time, both of them looked smug, and the result of last night's night battle had been confirmed by the aircraft reconnaissance this morning.The results of the man-operated torpedoes in the night battle last night exceeded their expectations. Only 48 man-operated torpedoes were fired to sink one aircraft carrier and severely damage the other two aircraft carriers!Obviously, the Japanese Navy now has another powerful killer.With human torpedoes and kamikaze aircraft, there should be some chances of winning this war, right?

"Report, reconnaissance aircraft found an unidentified seaplane about 20 kilometers away from our fleet."

The staff's report interrupted their thoughts.Narumi Inoue and Kameto Kuroshima looked at each other, and Inoue smiled lightly and said, "Kuroshima-kun, it seems that the Americans have discovered us too."

Hei Dao Guiren sighed softly: "These Americans' desire for war is higher than we imagined! After suffering so many setbacks these days, I didn't expect them to still want to seek a decisive battle so much!"

"If you want a decisive battle, let's do it!" Narumi Inoue took a deep breath and said with a sneer, "We have lost one mothership and suffered two serious damages. Now the Americans are no longer our opponents. It won't be long before our Kamikaze aircraft They will sink all their aircraft carriers!"

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General! I just received the report from the No.14 Army." The communication staff officer sounded a little excited, "The 102th Regiment of the 158nd Division has just invaded Managua, the capital of Nicaragua! The Nicaraguan government has already panicked. fled to Mexico."

"Oh! A whole country has been conquered by just one alliance! This Ishihara Waner is really talented." Narumi Inoue took the telegram from the staff and looked at it, sneered again, and handed the telegram to Kuroshima Kame people. "Yamashita Fengwen asked us to send planes to attack Panama City after defeating the US fleet to cooperate with the 16th Division to seize the Panama Canal."

The Turtleman of the Black Island pondered for a while, then said: "Your Excellency, the Gulf of Panama is the best deep-water port on the west coast of Central America, and it has been operated by the Americans for many years. operating from the fundamental stronghold in Central America."

"The fundamental stronghold in Central America?" Narumi Inoue was taken aback when he heard the words, "Isn't the attack on Central America to meet the demands of China and Germany? The development direction of the empire should be Australia."

"However, the empire's military operations in Central America went very smoothly, and Britain's resistance in Australia was very tenacious!"

Chapter 0834 Landing in America ([-]) Summation of Paper Tigers

Wuhan, East Lake.

The Moshan Mansion is brightly lit tonight.

Since the anti-Soviet war started two years ago, this small presidential residence with a combination of Chinese and Western styles has become one of the focuses of the world's attention. Unknowingly, it has regained its leading position in Asian politics and diplomacy during its heyday, and it has naturally become the power center of the entire Eastern world.

As the theoretical master of the Eastern world, Luo Yiqun, who has just started his second term as president, now has to spend a lot of time and energy on international affairs that he is not familiar with, and on this seemingly good world. war.

Sitting behind the desk, President Luo, wearing glasses, was seriously looking at the latest report on the American battlefield just transferred by the Japanese side.

This report was personally delivered to the Presidential Palace by Japanese Ambassador Shigemitsu Aoi an hour ago.After Japan joined the "Iron Alliance", whenever there was a major military operation, the battle report would be sent to Luo Yiqun, the "leader of the East", as soon as possible, which seemed to be an acknowledgment of China's leadership.

However, in President Luo's view, the reports sent by the Japanese side are just showing off their victories one after another!Although China and Japan are now allies, Luo Yiqun still feels a little depressed seeing the success of the little Japan. How can the US imperialism be so involuntary?Actually let the little Japan run wild on the American continent!It's really outrageous!

"Huh..." After exhaling a sullen breath, Luo Yiqun seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. He frowned and handed the report to Luo Yaoguo who was facing him, "Fuwen, the Japanese won another battle in America! They sank three ships." Two American aircraft carriers were severely damaged... and my own losses were only the sinking of the Hiryu and the heavy damage of the Canglong. In this way, the sea control in the Eastern Pacific may fall into the hands of Japan!"

"Oh, is that so?" Luo Yaoguo's face flashed a look of seriousness, and he hurriedly took the report with both hands and looked at it carefully.

After the kamikaze suicide plane showed its talents, the Japanese suicide torpedo really appeared in advance!In the battle off Nicaragua in the early morning of March 3, Japan used a suicide torpedo attack to sink the French aircraft carrier Bearn and severely damage the Joffre and Banlv.In the sea-air decisive battle that broke out a few hours later, the Japanese kamikaze team once again showed their talents. Two waves of 5 kamikaze planes committed suicide and sank two large US (French) aircraft carriers. In addition, two New Orleans-class heavy cruisers and three light cruisers were sunk!Although the two counterattacks launched by the United States also caused the Japanese fleet to sink one aircraft carrier, severely damage one aircraft carrier, sink one heavy cruiser, and sink two light cruisers.But the final winner of this sea and air battle is undoubtedly Japan again!After losing the combat capability of at least four aircraft carriers, the United States has at most two aircraft carriers available in the Pacific Ocean, while Japan has six aircraft carriers.

And that's just Japan's victory at sea.The Japanese troops who landed on the American continent also achieved unexpected success. In just a few days, they captured the capital of Costa Rica, San Jose, and the capital of Nicaragua, Managua, and forced the governments of these two countries to go into exile in the United States.In addition, there is a Japanese army of about 3 people who has repelled the American rescue of Costa Rica, invaded Panama under the protection of the United States, and is now advancing towards the Isthmus of Panama.

Now that the United States has lost its command of the sea in the Eastern Pacific, the U.S. military in Panama will definitely not last long under the coordinated attack of Japan's sea, land and air. It seems that Panama's fall is also a matter of time!

After the fall of Panama, can the United States maintain its leadership in the Americas?

Obviously impossible.Judging from the current situation, the US rule in Latin America has begun to shake. Mexican President Lázaro Cardenas announced last night that Mexico will remain neutral in the US-Japan war.Even Mexico, which is next to the United States, is unwilling to follow the United States to fight against Japan, let alone those gangsters in South America?Brazil, Colombia, Argentina and other countries seem to ignore the winks thrown by the United States, which was unimaginable in the past.

It seems that Japan's cannon fodder has unintentionally hit the weakness of the United States!What the United States has to consider now is not to contend for world hegemony, but how to maintain her traditional hegemony in the Americas.

Thinking of this, Luo Yaoguo gently closed the report sent by the Japanese, and heaved a long sigh. "Uncle, the situation is very favorable to us. Japan's landing operations in the Americas achieved unexpected success, but in Australia they encountered stubborn resistance from the United Kingdom... With Japan's true nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, it is estimated that the focus of their military operations in the next stage will be Turning to America. Then our American friends will really have a headache for a while."

Luo Yiqun hesitated for a while before hesitantly said: "Fuwen, if this goes on... America won't be defeated by Japan, right?"

Luo Yaoguo shook his head, "That's not true. Japan doesn't have the strength to defeat the United States. They just took advantage of the United States' lack of preparation and launched a surprise attack to seize the upper hand. Although they won a few big victories, they did not weaken the actual strength of the United States." National strength. As long as the United States survives these few months, the Japanese will be beaten next!"

Luo Yiqun sighed softly and remained silent for a while.Regarding the US-Japanese War, he and some Kuomintang veterans have very ambiguous attitudes.They hope that the United States will suffer a bit, but they don't want the United States to be defeated by Japan, let alone see the United States rise up and hit Tokyo in one breath... How can the side of the Eastern hegemony allow others to peep!

"Fuwen, then can we and Germany make a move against the United States..." Luo Yiqun asked tentatively.

Luo Yaoguo shook his head again and said: "No, Uncle, our alliance with Germany cannot be without a common enemy. If that is the case, China and Germany are not friends but enemies. Besides, if the United States is really defeated by China and Germany, it will benefit from it." The biggest must be Germany. After all, virtue is just a different branch of the same civilization, while China and the United States are two different civilizations. German Americans are the largest ethnic group in the United States, and in South America, the German ethnic group also has a considerable proportion In addition, the best part of the United States is also on the east coast, and the distance between the east coast of the United States and Europe is much closer than the distance between the west coast of the United States and China. Once the United States is defeated by China and Germany, their talents, capital, and industries It will all fall into the hands of Germany, and Germany will be too powerful by then!"

"In addition, Germany has not yet defeated Britain and France to dominate Europe, and we have not completed the campaigns in Australia and India. It is impossible to send troops to the Americas. By the time we are free, the United States may have fully armed itself. It is not so easy to defeat them, especially while defeating the United States, we must always beware of our allies..."

"But..." Luo Yiqun was still a little unwilling, "After fighting for a long time, there are still strong enemies around, so when will we be able to develop in peace in China!"

Luo Yaoguo smiled lightly, and said: "Without the foreign aggression surrounded by powerful enemies, can our country still have the motivation to develop? When the time comes to develop with peace of mind, I'm afraid it will become a comfortable and enjoyable time, right?"

"Then what if the United States now proposes to form an alliance with China and Germany to carve up the world? Should we agree immediately?" Luo Yiqun has been holding this question in his mind for a few days. It seems that this post-war situation is also recognized.It's just that Roosevelt has always opposed it, and now that the United States has suffered unexpected setbacks in the US-Japanese War, will it change its mind?
