As landing ships rushed to the beach one after another, a total of 15,000 Chinese soldiers landed in San Francisco and officially began their campaign on American soil. Except for a small number of U.S. troops opposite them, they were defeated southward.
Most chose to surrender.
After completing the landing, except for leaving one regiment to guard the prisoners and attack southward to cut off the communication between the San Francisco Peninsula and the mainland, the remaining main force all headed north towards the urban area of San Francisco. Their attack here can also be said to be devastating. Mercer
The remaining American troops in the north of Dehu surrendered without a fight. As for the Japanese who were burning, killing and looting in the urban area, now that their masters are here, they dare not make any more troubles. There are many niggas who have not yet seen the situation clearly, but in
After dozens of them were killed, they all shrank back honestly.
In just one morning, San Francisco had completely changed hands. Even the two forts in the north and south of the Golden Gate Strait were destroyed. Although the US coastal defense artillery resisted heroically, their cannons could not hit the warships at sea.
When the main force of the Fourth Division came from behind, the defenders on the south bank's fort immediately surrendered. As for the north bank, after enduring more than two hours of ravage, all the cannons were destroyed, and the remaining people also raised their weapons.
The white flag was raised, and in the entire San Francisco Fortress, only the fortress on Alcatraz Island was still fighting for the United States.
Of course, I say this just because they are still flying the American flag. In fact, due to the distance, the coastal defense guns on this island have not fired a single shot so far. They cannot reach outside the strait, but they are capable of bombarding the city of San Francisco.
area, but there are still tens of thousands of Americans blocked here in the urban area. It is obvious that they cannot open fire on their compatriots.
"Mr. Lin, I've been waiting for you!" Peng Qingyun said to Lin Chaodong with a smile in the San Francisco City Hall.
"My brother, don't be polite. Is this brother Situ?" Lin Chaodong said looking at Situ Meitang who came with him.
Situ Meitang hurriedly saluted him, but Lin Chaodong waved his hand to stop, and then continued: "The capture of San Francisco is just the beginning. The emperor means to capture the entire California, but the country will not send troops to reinforce unless necessary, so this task
Leave it to the Chinese in Hawaii and California to complete this task. To complete this task, at least 40,000 to 50,000 people are needed. Hawaii can produce 10,000 people, and our division has 18,000 people. In other words, you overseas Chinese have at least 10,000 people.
We come up with about 15,000 people. You can figure this out on your own. As for the weapons, they will be shipped from Hawaii."
"It is not difficult to capture California. There are basically no US troops in the cities around San Francisco. Even if there are, they are just defeated soldiers who escaped from here. As for the militia, there are not many. The total population of California is less than one million. Among them
Excluding the Chinese, Japanese, Southeast Asians, blacks, and immigrants from countries such as Russia, Germany, and Spain, the number of Americans who actually came from the east is probably only half. Excluding the elderly, weak, women, and children from a population of several hundred thousand, we can make up one hundred thousand
In the prime of life, excluding those who will definitely not go to the battlefield with guns, the total number of troops that California can mobilize will not exceed 60,000. Here, one-third has been reduced, and it is still the most elite one-third.
, there is only one division of US troops in Los Angeles left. Based on the combat effectiveness they showed in San Francisco. One regiment of our army can probably pick up one of their divisions. It can be said that if we want to capture California, just one of your divisions is enough.
But the problem is what to do after we capture it. The Americans will definitely continue to increase their troops to compete with us. In that case, we will not be able to hold on. Even if the Chinese are fully armed, we will definitely not be able to withstand a protracted war. Unless the country can
If we continue to increase the number of troops, or simply immigrate on a large scale, let alone one million Chinese with guns, California will be ours forever," said Situ Meitang.
"You think the emperor doesn't want to do this. But now our people don't like to come out. We Chinese don't like to run out. This is our nature. In the past, we were forced to do so because we didn't have enough to eat. Now the emperor has not only waived the land tax, but also the Congress has just
The legislation stipulates that land rent cannot exceed 40%, and with the opening of a large number of factories, more and more people are working in factories, and they are supported by wages. The people's lives are getting better day by day, and they are even less willing to leave their hometowns." Lin Chaodong.
He sighed and said that this issue is what Yang Feng is struggling with the most. In fact, he really hopes that Chinese people can immigrate 100 million, so that they can get it without having to travel to many places.
Situ Meitang was stunned. He had been away from China for many years and he really didn't know there had been such a big change.
"But don't worry, we can't swallow California yet, but San Francisco will never spit it out. Our emperor has long said that he will create an autonomous region for us Chinese in America. Taking California is just to force the Americans to negotiate.
chips, do you understand?" Lin Chaodong said with a smile.
Now that he said this, Situ Meitang understood that anyway, the number of Chinese in California is only tens of thousands, and one San Francisco is enough. If you understand Emperor Yang's purpose, the rest will be simple, and you can quickly control the entire San Francisco Peninsula.
After that, an army composed of overseas Chinese and Japanese was quickly formed. At the same time, the Fourth Division began to sweep all the cities along the San Francisco Bay. The main U.S. force in San Francisco could not last through the morning, not to mention the small amount of militia organized by these places.
, death soon fell, and in less than three days, all the cities along the San Francisco Bay fell into the hands of the Chinese.
The Alcatraz Island fortress was left alone. After looking around blankly and noticing that the Yellow Dragon flag was raised all around, a U.S. military major stationed there had no choice but to send people ashore to surrender.
At the Union Steel Shipyard in San Francisco, Liu Buchan couldn't help laughing as he looked at the battleship Wisconsin being outfitted here. This battleship has almost completed half of the outfitting work. It originally belonged to the same Illinois class as the Alabama, but the American
When the diesel engine was purchased, the Alabama's power system had already been installed, so it had to continue to be built according to the original drawings. However, this ship and the Newport News Shipyard's Illinois had not yet installed a power system, so the Americans simply
The drawings were revised, and all experimental ones were replaced with four 7,000-horsepower diesel engines. During the trial some time ago, because no artillery was installed, it even ran past the 25-knot high speed. American newspapers even boasted about it.
I didn't expect that it would fall into my hands now.
You must know that the Chinese Navy does not yet have a first-class battleship. If you take this ship back and replace the artillery, use the 280 rapid-fire main gun of the battleship under construction, the Chinese Navy will immediately have an additional first-class battleship.
, and it is also the latest battleship comparable to the German Frederick III class.
In addition to this one, there are also two armored cruisers that have also been launched, installed with power systems, and are being outfitted. These two ships can also be driven back directly for modification. These three warships alone will be responsible for this attack on San Francisco.
It's very worth it.
"It's better to grab a bargain. Now think about those sages' books that we learned when we were young. It's so stupid to do what you don't want others to do to you. Don't do to others. It's really stupid. In this world, beggar-thy-neighbor is the truth. If not
Let's set up a good emperor, and now we are tossing around in those old antiques, and then we are waiting for the foreign devils to come to us one by one to suck blood. How good it is now, it is our turn to lie on others and suck blood. When we are full, we will
Use it to feed our own people, let them desperately support us, use people to help people, use strength to help us, and support us to continue to suck more blood from others, and then we feed them more. This is the right way for a country to develop.
.In recent years, I have completely understood why the foreign devils are stronger than us. After all, they understand this truth earlier than us and more thoroughly than us." Lin Chaodong next to him looked at the ship in front of him.
After grabbing the huge ship, I couldn't help but express some emotion. It can be seen that this ship has now completely completed the transformation of the role of a colonist.
Just as the two men looked at the Wisconsin with emotion, the fully loaded coalition fleet had already sailed into Havana. Because they needed to tow those warships and merchant ships, their return speed was much slower than normal. In order to show off their power to the Americans, the USS
Wella deliberately led the fleet out of Norfolk. Mahan in the harbor watched them dragging the warship that should have belonged to him past his house, but he didn't have the courage to go out and intercept it. He knew very well that it was a trap.
As long as your fleet goes out, you basically can't expect to come back.
On both sides of the Chesapeake Bay entrance, there were at least more than 100,000 Americans, silently watching this humiliating scene, watching the warships they had built with their hard-earned money fall into the enemy's pocket. Countless people
I screamed with grief and indignation in my heart, where is our country and our army? Why are we always the ones who fail? What is the problem?
They didn't know what went wrong, but they knew one thing clearly: the United States of America could no longer protect them. In a sense, this federation had lost its due value.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Feng. For him, these two days have been really joyful and refreshing! Especially when the Chinese army easily captured San Francisco, it greatly gave him, the Chinese emperor, a boost in the international community.
Face, although the Chinese Army has also achieved many victories before, after all, they were all inferior things like Japan, the Qing Army, and the Philippine Monkeys, but this time is different. This is a real defeat of the white army.
