Chapter five hundred and eighty fourth shocked the world
The ground officer nodded happily at first, and then said hesitantly...but we didn't receive the order. 23us.
Fastest update
Fuchida looked at the command tower in disbelief. Sure enough, he could not issue the order. Inside the command tower, Nagumo Chuichi was hesitating.
Your Excellency General, the first batch of planes have returned. We must quickly prepare for the next attack. The staff officer next to him said.
Nanyun Zhongyi looked outside, shook his head and said that our mission is over. Now there should be at least three teams of US troops dispatched to look for our traces. If we are discovered, there will probably be losses. This is too dangerous. Don't forget
Well, the US military still has an aircraft carrier that is missing.
With that said, Nan Yunzhong ordered to wait for the second wave of planes to return and return immediately.
Fuchida was waiting anxiously on the deck when he suddenly saw the Kazuki flag hoisted and quickly shouted to prepare for the second attack quickly.
Wait...then...that's what someone reminded me next to the order to prepare to return.
Only then did Fuchida look at it seriously. He was surprised to find that the flag meant that he would return after the second wave of planes came back. He immediately ran quickly to the control tower. Pushing aside the guards, he rushed in and attacked Nagumo Chuichi.
He asked, "Commander, why do you want to stop the attack? There are still a large number of US military ships in Pearl Harbor that have not been destroyed, and their shipyards and repair shops. These places have not been bombed."
Nan Yunzhong glanced at him and said, have you forgotten what our mission is?
Fuchida waved back and asked, "Isn't this the complete destruction of the U.S. Pacific Fleet?"
Nagumo Chuichi shook his head and said that it was to cover our army's operations in Southeast Asia and protect the flanks and rear of the Southern Fleet. Now that our mission has been completed, what I have to do next is to lead this elite force back to Japan safely.
.Prepare to return home
What else Fuchida wanted to say, Kusaka next to him stopped him and said, Fuchida-kun, we must make a calm judgment between our fighting enthusiasm and our combat power. Our country's financial resources are almost exhausted, but the financial resources of the United States are almost unlimited.
, if anything happens to us, then even if Pearl Harbor is completely destroyed, what will happen?
Fuchida opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and finally stamped his feet vigorously and retreated.
Nagumo Chuichi actually felt extremely sorry in his heart. If Japan's national strength were stronger, he would naturally dare to take risks, but now he only thinks about how to reduce losses.
Tokyo
Why did Chuichi Nagumo give up the second attack? The staff officers around Yamamoto Isoroku were shocked when they heard the news. Yamamoto Isoroku looked back at the list of US warships on the wall and smiled slightly. He was extremely
Understand Nagumo Chuichi's thoughts.
General, we must generate electricity to allow General Nagumo to continue the attack. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once lost, we don't know when we will have such an opportunity.
Yamamoto Isoroku shook his head and said that Chuichi Nagumo is now like a thief who has just stolen something. What he wants to do most now is to escape with his loot. Forget it, his mission is basically completed, and the rest of us
People in the rear should not interfere too much with the frontline command.
Yamamoto Isoroku believed that the people at the rear did not understand the situation at the front, and if he ordered Nagumo Chuichi because of the opinions of his staff, then Nagumo Chuichi's majesty would be damaged. Therefore, Yamamoto Isoroku vetoed the advice of his staff.
As for whether his idea was right or wrong, future generations will tell.
The streets of Tokyo were still dark, but the loudspeakers hanging on the streets suddenly rang. The huge roar woke up the Japanese people in Tokyo from their sleep. The radio station kept repeating this paragraph to broadcast important news.
Mashiro walked slowly to the window sill. Bashun touched his head beside him and asked strangely what was going on.
Mashiro Siwen sighed and said that the United States and Japan are at war... These fools have no idea what kind of country they are fighting.
Sure enough, not long after, the radio issued an announcement from the Japanese base camp. The Imperial Navy and Army entered a state of war with the British and American troops in the Western Pacific early this morning, and at the same time launched a fierce air attack on the American fleet and air force in Hawaii.
In order to heighten the atmosphere, the radio station also used the enchanting music of the Ba Dao Squadron and the Warship March.
Long live long live
When the fanatical Japanese people heard the news, they immediately fell into a complete carnival. In the propaganda, they always believed that the great depreciation of the Japanese currency was due to the financial attacks of the United Kingdom and the United States, and that their difficult lives were also due to the sanctions imposed by the United Kingdom and the United States on Japan for joining the Axis powers.
As a result, they have long wanted to fix those white people who are arrogant every day. Now, the opportunity has finally come.
The quagmire-like battlefield in China did not completely destroy the morale of the Japanese army. On the contrary, it made them look forward to finding a place to vent. Now, they have someone to vent to.
The news of the attack on Pearl Harbor spread quickly throughout the world. The heads of various forces in Chongqing, Yan'an, Moscow, Berlin, and London were working hard to digest the news.
London
It was night in London at this time. After Churchill got the news, he jumped up happily. He waved his pipe and said, now, we are invincible. The lovely Japanese have brought our most powerful ally in.
Now that we are at war, our victory is only a matter of time.
The few people next to them looked at each other and smiled. They also understood the significance of the United States' official participation in the war. Germany's main force was now deeply trapped in the Soviet Union. With the support of the United States, Britain would definitely be able to sit back and relax.
Churchill sat down. After he was safe, his mind began to think about other places. Germany must be overthrown in Europe now, but after overthrowing Germany, how can Britain become the hegemon of Europe again or at least not let Europe appear?
The new overlord is the issue he needs to think about most now.
That...Mr. Prime Minister, I have to remind you that our various colonies in Asia may soon be attacked by the Japanese army. Someone suddenly reminded.
Churchill suddenly became excited. Only then did he remember that Japan's target was not only the United States.
Berlin
Hitler's office was in a mess. Countless things were thrown to the floor by him. He was so excited and incoherent that people outside the office were frightened and did not dare to go in. They all understood why Hitler was so angry. In order to prevent the United States from entering the war, he ignored the United States.
No matter how he supported Britain, Hitler did not allow Dönitz to attack American ships, even if those ships blatantly carried various weapons. In Egypt, there are countless American factories producing equipment that is arming the British African Corps. Now, Japan's
The attack made Germany's patience in vain.
Hitler opened the door suddenly and shouted to send electricity to Japan immediately. Didn't they always say that they would not be defeated? Then prove it to us. Germany cannot help them in the Pacific. Let them seek their own blessings.
Himmler asked my Führer, "Should we declare war with the United States? If according to the treaty...
Hitler swallowed his saliva and said, "Get ready to declare war. I originally wanted to put the United States last, but we Germans are fearless. The success or failure of the generals on the Eastern Front will directly affect the outcome of the empire. The empire is in
Strategically it is already very dangerous. We must resolve the fighting in the east before the United States fully activates their forces
In Hitler's original plan, although the battle on the Western Front was not over, there was nothing to worry about. He could first spend one to two years solving the Soviet problem, and then turn back to solve the British problem. After all, the power of the Soviet Union was
It has already swelled out of proportion. If the delay continues, the Soviet Union may attack Germany, but now it is very different. The strength of the United States was reflected in World War I. If the United States fully committed to the war, the variables on the Western Front would be
Very big.
Hitler squinted his eyes and looked at Japan on the map. He didn't know whether this damn country was doing this for good or bad. Of course, when he got the real losses of the US Navy at Pearl Harbor, his mood would be different.
the same.
Moscow
Stalin squinted his eyes and put down the telegram. He raised his head and said that if the United States is going to join the war, then a huge anti-Axis group will be formed. Our Soviet Union will become a member of this group. The United States has given Britain so many supplies.
Should we also support the Soviet Union? After all, we bear most of the pressure on the German army.
Molotov nodded and said, I understand, I will contact the United States immediately.
Stalin smiled and said that this is the biggest good news we have now. If Japan and the United States go to war, it means that Japan will definitely not be able to go north. The intelligence is correct. Contact the Far East Front immediately and let them be ready to support the Western Front at any time.
When Stalin was making strategic arrangements, Zhukov knocked on the door and walked in. With a sullen face, he handed a telegram to Stalin and said, "Comrade Stalin, a telegram has just been sent from the Smolensk front line. The German rapid corps is advancing."
About 200 kilometers away, Mogilev was encircled and Orshasmolensk Yelnya Krichev was captured. Our 19th, 16th and 20th armies were surrounded, and our 13th army was being
The Germans attacked and are still fighting.
The three armies really thought that Stalin would turn into an army. Stalin had just received good news, and here was bad news, which made Stalin almost breathless.
Stalin calmed down and asked who was leading the moral army to surround us.
Zhukov replied that it was Guderian and Hawke.
Stalin stamped his feet and cursed, why are these two sons of bitches again? Smolensk is a must-pass for Moscow, and their goal is Moscow. He told Smolensk that they must hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon.
, sent electricity to Timoshenko, and must find a way to dispel the German army's arrogant offensive arrogance. If the German army arrives in Moscow with such morale, everything will be in danger.
The news that the United States was going to join the war only brought Stalin a good mood for a few minutes. He had to face the problem of millions of Axis troops now.
Chongqing
After Agent Chiang received the news of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor, he sat there for a long time with a very complicated expression on his face.
Darling, the United States and Japan are finally going to war. This is good news. Why do you look so bad? Song Meiling asked incomprehensively.
Agent Jiang sighed and said, "I didn't expect Japan to be so crazy. The losses at Pearl Harbor must be huge. It is the darkness before dawn, the darkest moment. The United States may not be able to effectively support us within half a year. Our
The road wasn't much easier.
Agent Chiang understands very well that if the U.S. Navy is severely damaged, what will the U.S. use to support China? What kind of supplies can the U.S. use to transport aircraft? If they are said to be counterattacking, it would be good if they can maintain the status quo.
If foreign aid is insufficient, we can only rely on ourselves. Jiang Jie stood up and said, let Kong Xiangxi come to see me immediately. Our food tax work must be strengthened.
Yan'an
The chairman and Mr. Zhou Guansheng and Mr. Zhu sat together. In front of the three of them was the telegram that Pearl Harbor was attacked.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Boss Zhu was the first to speak. According to Xiao Jiang, the Japanese army will take over almost all of Southeast Asia in the next three months. I believe that Britain and the United States will definitely hope that China will help them fight against the Japanese army.
The chairman waved his hand and said, haven't we been fighting the Japanese army all the time? It has been five years since 1937, and ten years since 1931. What is happening now is also the result of the Americans and the British.
The fruit.
This sentence is correct. Before World War I, Japan relied on Britain for its rise, and then on the United States. Without the support of Britain, Japan would not have been able to fight the Sino-Japanese War of 1898. Without the support of the United States, Japan would not have been able to fight the Sino-Japanese War.
We can no longer support the war against China in 2016.
I believe the Americans will find us soon. What should we do next? Zhou Guansheng asked the Chairman.
The chairman waved his hand and said, let's go according to the plan. Let's solve our establishment problem first. We can mention this matter to the Americans. The 18th Group Army still has an establishment of three divisions, which is very inappropriate. We can do it without money and food.
This will also make it easier to command operations. In addition, the military leaders of various ministries will also prepare to hold a meeting in Yan'an in the near future to discuss counterattack matters. Comrades, our work tasks are very arduous.
Zhou Guansheng stood up and said that this kind of work is fun no matter how determined you are to do it. But I don’t know how Xiao Jiang is doing. The news is that he also went to Pearl Harbor. I am a little worried about him.
When the children grow up, it’s time to go out and make a living. Mr. Zhu is very open-minded. He said that we should do our job well and wait for him to come. Let him come and let him talk to us about this Pearl Harbor movie.
We have also watched it, but a movie is still a movie, and it always felt like something was missing.
The chairman nodded and said that the old one was okay, but I didn’t want to watch the later one after watching it halfway. It was a good historical drama, but it suddenly turned into a romance movie. Yamamoto Isoroku Nangumo Chuichi was not as good as the three young Americans.
We must not learn from this mess in the future.
Chairman, let’s go ahead and talk about our next plan. Zhou Guansheng quickly brought the topic back, otherwise he wouldn’t know where to go.
The explosion of Pearl Harbor attracted the world's attention. In Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, countless Japanese troops took up arms and began attacks under the command of Juichi Terauchi.
