Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2269 Combined Fleet
A ten-ton bomb is not too big, and it can be made even bigger. The key is that it cannot be thrown out. The size of the bomb depends on the performance of the bomber.

This limitation does not exist on rockets. The V1945 rocket developed by the Germans in 2 has a range of 1000 kilometers with a charge of 300 kilograms. The technology in southern Africa is better, and the weight of the warhead can theoretically be unlimited. .

Of course, there is still a cost problem here. Don’t forget that it is 1942. The guidance technology is not mature enough, and the accuracy of the rocket cannot be guaranteed. Another time-space German manufactured 15000 V1 rockets and 3000 V2 rockets. it is good.

When the Germans developed the rocket, the war was coming to an end. In the end, the German rocket technology was divided up by the United States and Russia.

Russia got the rocket technology, and the Americans brought the R&D team headed by von Braun to the United States. Von Braun is a very powerful person, the first artificial satellite and the first manned spacecraft in the United States, and Von Braun has made outstanding contributions to the birth of the space shuttle.

Rock did not expect to apply rockets to the battlefield right now. It was more to prepare for future technological competition. Southern Africa is now gaining more and more technological advantages. Last year, Nyasaland University successfully developed transistors, paving the way for the emergence of integrated circuits. Paving the way, John von Neumann, known as the "father of computers" in another time and space, also works at Nyasaland University. He and von Braun are both Germans, which shows the talents of Germany How strong is the reserve.

The United States in another time and space began to take off in science and technology only after receiving a large number of German scientific and technological talents after the war.

In this time and space, the United States is far less attractive to Germans than southern Africa, and more Germans choose to immigrate to southern Africa.

While Southern Africa continues to expand its technological advantages, the battle on the Malay Peninsula is drawing to a close.

On March 3, the last unit of the 25rd Guards Infantry Regiment surrendered. So far, the Guards Division and the 1000th Division were completely annihilated. Parcival finally got together [-] Japanese prisoners of war and prepared to organize a massive battle. Surrender ceremony.

It is not easy to collect 1000 prisoners of war. It is well known that if the Japanese army surrendered to the southern African army, there would be no survivors. They would not be able to meet the southern African army when escorting the prisoners. On March 3, a company of the 20th Division of India escorted 11 soldiers. On their way to Lion City, three Japanese prisoners of war encountered an East India transport force, and then all 150 prisoners of war died, and none survived.

This has nothing to do with the Southern African Army, but Parcival went to Angie again and asked Angie to restrain the Southern African Army and the East Indian Army under him, and stop massacring the Japanese prisoners of war who had put down their weapons.

This time Angie didn't need to make a move. General John Bradley from the U.S. Army was furious and sprayed Parcival with blood. .

"The Japanese do not deserve to be treated as prisoners of war. The 15000 U.S.-Philippine coalition forces that stopped resistance on the Bataan Peninsula were massacred by the Japanese on their way to the prisoner-of-war camp. [-] people were slaughtered by the Japanese. They also shamelessly attacked Pearl Harbor, and the Pacific Fleet suffered huge losses. , Think about your Z Fleet, you are so keen on holding the surrender ceremony? After the surrender ceremony, do you still have to sacrifice those damn Japanese? The materials that the United States supports the United Kingdom are for you to do this? "John Bradley was fully fired, and Parcival had no real pain for the atrocities committed by the Japanese army, and he could not empathize at all.

It can't be said that there was no immediate pain. The destruction of the Z Fleet must have impressed Parcival. If the southern African army hadn't taken action to turn the tide, the British and Indian troops led by Parcival should have surrendered to the Japanese army.

In another time and space, on February 2, Parcival led 15 British and Indian troops surrounded by the Japanese army to surrender to the Japanese army. The Japanese army suffered no more than a thousand casualties during the entire Malay campaign.

The surrender process was full of humiliation for Parcival. On February 2, the British army raised a white flag on the radio station and notified Yamashita Fufumi at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Yamashita insisted on seeing Parcival in person.

Parcival left the city accompanied by two staff officers, one of whom carried a white flag.

Yamashita asked Parcival to surrender unconditionally.

Parcival hoped to reply to Fufumi Yamashita the next day, as if this would save his face.

Yamashita Fengwen couldn't wait, and asked Parcival to give an answer immediately.

Parcival turned pale when he said "surrender".

"We have no evidence now that the [-] U.S.-Philippine coalition troops who surrendered on the Bataan Peninsula were abused by the Japanese army—" Parcival forcefully defended, and Angie, who was giggling next to him, noticed that Parcival used "surrender", just now Bradley uses "stop resisting."

These two words have similar meanings, "stop resisting" is more euphemistic, and "surrender" has a mocking meaning.

"If the butcher's knife doesn't hit you, you won't feel pain. No matter what you think, I will kill the Japanese one by one." John Bradley is not talking nonsense, even if the surrender ceremony has a huge impact on boosting the morale of the people. effect.

Keeping captives as coolies can save money.

It's not that Angie and John Bradley don't know this, but the rich and powerful southern Africa and the United States don't care. A hundred hard-working prisoner-of-war porters are not as efficient as a truck.

What's more, there is no shortage of porters in Lion City and Changi Naval Base.

Just last week, Weaver sent two more Indian divisions to cheat equipment.

This time An Qi was not fooled, not to mention that she did not arrange combat missions for these two divisions, and left the two Indian divisions in Lion City as porters to take care of the logistics.

Without arranging combat missions, naturally there is no need for equipment.

What Angel did not expect was that Indians were not even qualified as porters. A box weighing less than 50 kilograms had to be moved [-] meters, and a hundred Indians had to be arranged to pass it by hand. Many Indian soldiers were not satisfied.

This is the strangest thing about Indians. What they are dissatisfied with is not that they are porters, but that the working hours are too long, more than eight hours a day.

"Very well, then I'll put the surrender ceremony in Kuala Lumpur, so it's okay?" Parcival was also very angry, thinking that he was not respected.

Now the Malay Peninsula is still a British colony in name. Percival, the commander-in-chief of the British Army on the Malay Peninsula, is currently the highest person in charge of the United Kingdom in the Malay Peninsula. Sival's order to cooperate with the British and Indian troops to fight.

There is no problem with the cooperation, but it is not the southern African army that cooperates with the British and Indian troops, but the other way around.

As for obeying Parcival's command, it was just a joke, and Parcival himself didn't dare to make such a request.

"The battle in Kuala Lumpur is not over yet, and there are still remaining Japanese troops in the city." Angie also didn't give Percival a chance, just kidding, Kuala Lumpur was recovered from the Indian Ocean theater and would not be returned to the British easily.

To hold the surrender ceremony in Kuala Lumpur, the defense of Kuala Lumpur must be handed over to the British and Indian troops.

In this way, not to mention An Qi, I think London is not at ease. After all, the combat effectiveness of the British and Indian troops is obvious to all. If the battle is unfavorable and the Japanese return to Kuala Lumpur, I am afraid that the scene where the British and Indian troops easily gave up Kuala Lumpur in the previous stage of the battle will repeat itself. .

So wait until the war is over before handing over the jurisdiction of Kuala Lumpur.

It is anyone's guess that the British colonial rule in the Malay Peninsula was realized through the Malay Federation and the Malay States. These two institutions are now completely paralyzed, and the reconstruction work is nowhere in sight.

The cruelty of the Japanese was fully revealed in the battle of the Malay Peninsula. They killed a wave when they attacked, and killed another wave when they retreated. Most of the Malay Peninsula has become a no-man's land. It is meaningless to rebuild the colonial government because there are no people. Can breed.

"Well, no matter what you say, at least the Lion City is still the territory of the British Empire. I have every right to organize the surrender ceremony in the Lion City." Parcival is not a clay figure either. The final ownership of Kuala Lumpur has nothing to do with Parcival. He waits for the war to end I will definitely leave the Malay Peninsula in the end, and I don’t want to stay here for a minute.

Looking at Parcival's angry back, Angie and John Bradley didn't care.

Bradley is the U.S. liaison stationed in the Indian Ocean theater, the kind who is qualified to directly contact the White House.

The process of the death march on the Bataan Peninsula continued to appear in the media through various channels, and the Americans went berserk collectively, demanding that the US government give the Japanese government the cruelest revenge.

Yes, it's not often that the word "cruel" appears directly in a newspaper.

The problem is that the United States is unable to retaliate against the Japanese immediately. Even if it bombs Tokyo, it still needs to borrow an airport in southern Africa.

If the American B29 takes off from Guam, it can also reach the Japanese mainland.

In this time and space, Guam has not yet been occupied by the Japanese army. Guam also has an airport, but the scale is relatively small and the B29 cannot take off and land.

The U.S. government has passed a resolution to put Europe first and then Asia. After the war in Europe is resolved, it will shift its focus to Asia. If it wants to retaliate against the Japanese immediately, it must rely on southern Africa.

Therefore, the U.S. government did not expand the airport in Guam, probably because it was worried that it would not be able to defend it after the expansion. It borrowed the airport in southern Africa and at least had the protection of the southern African army.

John Bradley hoped that Angie would send troops to land in the Philippines as quickly as possible, to recover the lost ground and at the same time rescue the captured [-] U.S.-Philippine coalition troops.

Oh, now there is no more than [-], not even [-].

Another U.S.-Philippine coalition that surrendered in time and space killed another 26000 people within two months after arriving at the prisoner-of-war camp.

"Our air force is bombing the Japanese troops stationed in the Philippines to prepare for the landing operation, but we are now facing a serious problem. The Filipinos do not seem to oppose the Japanese invasion. If we land and operate, the Filipinos may be attacked. opposition." Angie really couldn't figure out that the United States had colonized the Philippines for decades, and it seemed that it hadn't achieved the slightest result, and it was not as popular as the Japanese.

"Then kill all the resistance and treat it as if we are fighting in an enemy country." John Bradley has a decisive attitude. The population of the United States is twice that of the United Kingdom. Unlike the United Kingdom, colonization requires the cooperation of local aborigines.

Looking at the expansion of the United States in the Americas, we know that after the United States acquires a new land, the normal practice is to kill all the local aborigines, and the Indians are a horrible background.

"Well, as long as our troops are ready, we will land and fight in the Philippines immediately." Angie couldn't find a reason to refuse. The Americans didn't want to regain lost ground, it was pure revenge.

However, before landing in the Philippines, An Qi still has a problem to solve, and that is the combined Japanese fleet approaching the Mariana Islands.

The bombing of Tokyo allowed the Japanese to fully understand the performance of the "Super Sky Fortress". The Japanese government will not sit still. field airfield.

Yamamoto 56 faces the reality, with a strong defense of the Southern African Army, and the poorly equipped Japanese Army is unlikely to occupy the Mariana Islands. The goal of destroying the airport is more realistic, and the main guns of the battleships of the United Fleet can also come in handy.

Of course, it is not easy to achieve this goal.

There are a total of 16 volcanic islands in the Mariana Islands, stretching for more than 600 kilometers, with a total area of ​​734 kilometers. The airport built in southern Africa is on the charming Saipan Island, which is also the only island with permanent residents in the Mariana Islands.

The United Fleet is powerful, and the Indian Ocean theater has to go all out to deal with it. An Qi can't send all the aircraft carriers to the Mariana Islands. Once the United Fleet turns around and attacks the Changi Naval Base, it will be troublesome.

At this time, the American "foresight" showed its value. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, the three aircraft carriers belonging to the US Pacific Fleet were not in the military port. Now these three aircraft carriers are advancing to Guam, which is very important for the Pacific Fleet. Saying it was an adventure.

Although the aircraft carrier has demonstrated its value, the United States still worries that the aircraft carrier may suffer a devastating blow if it goes to battle without the protection of the battleship, considering the defense capability of the aircraft carrier.

An Qi is not worried about this problem. There are only two battleships in the Indian Ocean theater, and both of them are more than 20 years old. Although they have been upgraded many times, the current displacement does not exceed 30000 tons, which is much worse than the Japanese battleships.

An Qi did not expect to rely on battleships to fight against the combined fleet, and handed over the task of attacking battleships to aircraft carriers. This time, the three "island" class aircraft carriers and two "city" class aircraft carriers under the Indian Ocean theater were all dispatched. The defense of Changi Naval Base Handed over to the Army Aviation Force and the secondary aircraft carrier converted from the integrated supply ship.

Taking into account the performance of the Japanese carrier-based aircraft, the southern African army expanded the defensive circle to 1000 kilometers, which is far beyond the combat radius of the Japanese carrier-based aircraft, but within the combat radius of the "Cheetah", as long as the Japanese combined fleet enters the 1000-kilometer range , then it will be jointly attacked by the Indian Ocean Fleet and the US Pacific Fleet.

The supreme commander of the Indian Ocean Fleet is Tang Li, commander of the Indian Ocean Fleet, and the supreme commander of the US Pacific Fleet is William Frederick Halsey Jr., who previously served as the commander of the Pacific Fleet Aircraft Carrier Task Force.
