Age of Rebirth

"As expected, since Yamamoto 56 intentionally strangled the U.S. Army Air Corps, the American defeat on the West Coast is already a doomed ending!" Tang Qiuli was not surprised by Zhao Yuhe's report. In the battle to land on the west coast of the United States, it was untenable and was driven out of the Eastern Pacific Ocean, that was an accident!"

"Master, there is another important situation mentioned in the intelligence!" Zhao Yuhe continued: "The more than [-] U.S. troops deployed on the second line were attacked by thousands of aircraft from the Japanese Army and Navy Air Force on the way to reinforce the front line. The air strikes by combat aircraft caused heavy losses, and afterward, the carrier-based fleet of the Japanese Navy’s combined fleet carried out a second air strike, and after the two air strikes, the U.S. military has retreated across the board!"

"Oh!" Tang Qiuli raised his eyebrows, obviously interested in this information, looked at Zhao Yuhe and asked, "What else?"

"In the information of the Intelligence Department, the description of the retreat of the U.S. military is very simple but very vivid. It is disorganized and disorganized. The soldiers and the people are scrambling to escape. The commander of the Japanese landing force, Lieutenant General Hirano, commanded about six More than ten thousand people, before the second batch of Japanese landing troops arrived, they launched an active attack, smashing the retreating US troops in the west coast area, and the Japanese captured many prisoners!" Zhao Yuhe read the telegram.

"The Lieutenant General Hirano just took advantage of the wind!" Tang Qiuli analyzed and said, "The Japanese army's series of victories in the continental war on the west coast of the United States were the foundation laid by General Yamamoto. Yamamoto is a man who should not be underestimated." In the future, it will also be our strong enemy, Yuhe, you tell Yu Deshui. Aiming at Yamamoto 56, set up a special agency to collect and study all the information on this person!"

"Good teacher, I'll start making arrangements!" Zhao Yuhe agreed.

But in Zhao Yuhe's heart, there was always a question, and he panicked when he didn't figure it out, so he thought about it for a while.He still expressed his inner thoughts, "Commander, judging from the current situation in the North American battlefield. The U.S. army was defeated in the west coast area and has no ability to prevent the Japanese army from driving straight into the depths of the U.S. territory. In addition, there are more than one million elite German troops. Beginning into Mexico, approaching the southern border of the United States!"

"It's obviously a situation of two sides attacking. If the war situation continues like this, the possibility of the Americans destroying the country will become a reality. It's unbelievable that the United States with a deep foundation fell so quickly!"

In Zhao Yuhe's words.There is a lot of regret and emotion, but I don't sympathize with the United States.But I don't quite believe that the United States is about to enter a desperate situation, but it is a country with a very rich family!

"Yuhe, your emotion seems unnecessary!" Tang Qiuli said with a smile, "From the background of the United States and the size of the country, it is still far from the danger of destroying the country. Don't forget, the Americans are Having made money from the war, and has a complete industrial system, the family is strong, fat and strong, and they will not fall down so quickly!"

"The United States has a vast territory and a huge space for strategic maneuvering. The main industrial bases are all concentrated on the east coast. Where, it has not been affected by the war for the time being, and it can provide the United States with a steady stream of war resources. The Germans are not here. Opening up a battlefield on the west coast of the United States and completely destroying the industrial base of the United States is a big mistake!"

"But I understand Hitler. As far as the navy is concerned, the German navy is not strong enough to undertake combat missions in one direction alone. Germany is a traditional army power. Hitler is more willing to completely wipe out the US military on land!"

"The failure of a Philippine war and an Australian war did not shake the country of the United States, nor did it seriously damage the vitality to the point of exhaustion. This is different from the Soviets at the beginning. Therefore, even if Hitler and the Japanese joined forces and wanted to It is also impossible to destroy the United States in a short period of time. According to my estimation, this war will not end within two or three years!"

"There is another important point!" Tang Qiuli said, walking to the large military map, and then said: "Yuhe, you see, the Americans still have a backup rear, and that is Canada. If necessary, the United States can make great strides Withdraw to the north, avoid the sharp edge of the Japanese and Germans, and prepare for a long and hard battle!"

After hearing Zhao Yuhe's frequent nods, he suddenly had a whim and asked, "Master, if you were President Roosevelt of the United States, what would you do in the face of such a crisis?"

"Test me!" Tang Qiuli smiled and said, "I'm invincible. Before the war has just ignited in the mainland, and before the smoke is everywhere, immediately send all the industrial and mining enterprises, machinery and equipment on the east coast. As well as scientific and technical personnel and skilled workers, migrate to Canada, and not leave them for the enemy, so as not to use them!"

"It is imperative to relocate all industrial and mining enterprises on the east coast. When Hitler gained an advantage in the German army, in order to prevent the Japanese from getting more benefits, he would definitely attack the east coast of the United States. Even if Hitler didn't want to, the commander of the German navy Officer Doenitz will also actively challenge the battle!"

Tang Qiuli did not mention the Panama Canal. In this era, the Panama Canal has not yet been dug. Otherwise, with the tactical genius of Yamamoto 56, the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy would definitely pass through Central America and attack the east coast of the United States from the Atlantic Ocean.

"The Americans have done everything they need to do!" Obviously, Tang Qiuli was very excited, and then said: "In the end, it is the strategy of killing three thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred, adopting a scorched-earth strategy to destroy everything. Infrastructure that can be used by the enemy, such as roads, bridges, mines, etc., use urban agglomerations to fight street warfare, guerrilla warfare, and harassment warfare, and avoid positional warfare and head-to-head battles!"

"Because the Germans and Japanese are both advocates of the Continental Army's combat theory, and their main duty is to capture enemy cities. This is the opportunity for the Americans to take advantage of the advantages of local operations and consume the strength of the Japanese and German troops. As long as they are not afraid Destroy one's own home, establish the confidence to defend against the enemy for a long time, regardless of the gains and losses of a city or a place, in the long-term war, dragged to the point where neither Germany nor Japan wants to continue, this battle is fought to the end, It's hard to say what the ending will be!"

After listening to it, Zhao Yuhe suddenly understood, and his understanding of war seemed to have a new height and breadth, "Master, I understand a lot of things after hearing what you said. Fortunately, you are not Roosevelt. Otherwise, the Germans and The battle of the Japanese is difficult to fight, and it is really hard to say what the final result will be!"

He seemed to think of something again, and asked for instructions: "By the way, commander, what action should our troops take now?"

"Keep the current state, continue to train, and wait for the opportunity!" Tang Qiuli said bluntly, "Let the Japanese fight the North American War with peace of mind! Don't put a high hat on me, Roosevelt is not easy, he will definitely consider this A bit!"

Zhao Yuhe left, Tang Qiuli walked to the window, looked at the brightly lit Yangon, his mind was still stuck in the conversation with Zhao Yuhe just now, the so-called war opportunity was to wait until the Japanese returned from the war on the American mainland. In the middle, when you can't get out.

Once the independent division troops start the Southwest Pacific War, the situation of the war in the United States will also change. Putting Hitler's demands on himself and choosing the time to send troops to the Southwest Pacific, we must wait until Germany can independently complete the occupation of the United States. It is not necessary. It is impossible to abide by it, but it cannot be premature, and there is no need to have conflicts and conflicts with Hitler!

"Dingling!" The phone on the desk rang, Tang Qiuli answered the phone, it was Mei Ting, "Qiuli, are you coming back for dinner? I made some dishes you like! Xiaoxue and Xinlan Waiting for you too!"

"I'll go back right away! It's Sister Ting who cares about me!" Tang Qiuli's heart suddenly felt warm, and he hurried away without tidying up the documents on the table. His wives were waiting for him. Maybe, this time It is one of the few times to accompany them!

Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, the former seat of the West Coast Defense Command of the United States, has now changed its owner. A sun flag is flying high under the clear sky, proving the identity of the new owner.

General Yamamoto led the members of the headquarters, and rushed here by sea. After landing, they drove to Los Angeles. .

When he arrived in the urban area, General Yamamoto discovered a new phenomenon. The Japanese military police held guns and escorted many American prisoners to bury the corpses in the ruined city. "This Hirano knows how to use waste!" General Yamamoto said to the front Lieutenant General Matsuda said with a smile.

"Commander, Commander Hirano sent a telegram saying that he has cleaned up the former U.S. West Coast Defense Headquarters building and used it as the residence of the Imperial North American Combat Command. He is waiting for you at his new headquarters!" Chief of Staff Matsuda didn't want to say goodbye Lieutenant General Hirano made too many comments, and said, "Lieutenant General Hirano is really considerate. Even the new headquarters has been arranged in advance!"

He is still worried about the fact that Lieutenant General Hirano ordered the troops to attack without asking for instructions. According to Chief of Staff Matsuda, this is the beginning of the army generals being arrogant and ignoring General Yamamoto. This is an extremely bad phenomenon, because the next war will be dominated by the army.

How could General Yamamoto not understand that, following the minds of his subordinates for many years, he smiled and did not speak, and the phenomenon Matsuda was worried about was not impossible.

But I have absolute confidence in controlling the troops of the North American Combat Command, and with the help of my best friend Xiushan Minano, I am afraid that the generals of the army will turn the sky upside down?

The convoy drove into the ruined city and could be seen everywhere. American prisoners and American civilians who were being escorted to work arrived at the new headquarters. , a large group of army generals were waiting for him.
