- The sea breeze blew past the side of the ship, carrying that fishy smell unique to the sea, which immediately made people's minds clear. Lying on the side of the ship, the scene just now was heard. Looking back towards the port from here, it seems that one can still vaguely see the obvious envy on the faces of the people bidding farewell at the port.
The smell of war is approaching the Philippines, and everyone is equally terrified.
As for me, as a federal officer, I was obviously going to be a deserter if I took a sea ship at this time. ¡µBargain Ë? MacArthur thought.
From the Far East to Mexico to the Philippines, this is his fourteenth year of service in the military. During these fourteen years, MacArthur can be said to have experienced hundreds of battles and worked conscientiously. He completely regarded himself as an American soldier. You come to live in your home, but you never thought that in the end, you would be a deserter?
Deserters! For someone like him who comes from a military family, where his father is a three-star lieutenant general with a high status in American society, it is undoubtedly a shame!
Since learning about this decision, he has reported it to his superiors countless times. He even went beyond his superiors and wrote directly to the U.S. Department of Defense to complain. However, he was unable to change his superiors' decision. This time, U.S. soldiers evacuated the Philippines in large numbers and completely abandoned this business. Colonization for decades was inevitable.
As a colonel in the U.S. Army, it is said that he is likely to be promoted to brigadier general this year. For him who has a prosperous official career, he will definitely leave. He wants to be with his army.
The withdrawal of troops from the Philippines was submitted by the Department of Defense at the beginning of this year and reviewed and approved by the U.S. Congress. The meeting decided to take one and a half months from the end of April to the beginning of June. All existing U.S. forces in the Philippines will be massively withdrawn from the Philippines before they are withdrawn. The Americans also did a very beautiful thing: they returned freedom to the Filipino people and allowed the Philippines to govern itself.
But he also knew it. The Ministry of National Defense made this decision out of necessity.
Because, to this day, the pressure of the Imperial Chinese Navy on the Americans is really too great.
At a time when the United States has decided to enter the war and tilt its power in the direction of the Atlantic Ocean, the U.S. Navy is completely unable to maintain the existence of the lonely island of the Philippines within the sphere of influence of the Chinese Federation in Asia.
The Chinese Empire¡¯s Pacific Fleet, East China Sea Fleet, and South China Sea Fleet, these three fleets that mainly face the Pacific and Oceania, began to expand last year, and their size expanded at an astonishing speed. In just over a year, the number of battleships doubled. The total number of battleships and heavy cruisers alone is more than 30, with a total tonnage of more than 800,000 tons. What a shocking number. Under their threat, the Philippines is like meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at any time.
Since the World War, it can be said that among all the countries that have participated in the war, the military power of the Chinese Empire has undoubtedly expanded the fastest.
The Army has expanded from ten armies with 300,000 soldiers when the People's Republic of China was first founded to five mechanized group armies and thirty-six field armies, with a total strength of more than two million. The air force and navy have expanded several times or even more than ten times. Matching this is within the Chinese Empire. The rapidly expanding military industry, steel, petrochemicals, automobiles, engines, aerospace and other industries have all shown explosive growth in scale, and the country's strength has expanded like air.
Such a country. They are always eyeing the Philippines, and now the relationship between the United States and China has become so delicate that no one can tell when a war will break out between China and the United States. Under such pressure. The Philippines has become a huge burden for an American's strategic defense, making the entire U.S. Eastern strategy somewhat at a loss.
Since it cannot be maintained. It's better to just give up, in this case. On the contrary, it can get rid of this burden and place the navy's strategic defense objectives on the Pacific Island defense line. In this case, the pressure will be much less. The typical businessman governance style of the U.S. federal government will be fully apparent at this time.
MacArthur had to retreat together. Even though he was a future star in the US military, at this time, he was only a small role and had no ability to influence the overall situation.
But even so, he did not give up completely. He brought together the Filipino indigenous soldiers and officers he had trained and arranged them into the newly established indigenous government of the Philippines. As part of the new Philippine National Defense Force, he I believe that if the Chinese really come, these subordinates will give the Chinese a hard time.
And I, MacArthur, will definitely come back!
On the sea, watching the distant port getting further and further away, so that it was almost invisible, MacArthur said to himself with confidence.
¡¡
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" In early summer, in the long pavilion by the lake, Guo Jia trotted over and found Li Zhe.
"The news I just received is that the United States has begun to withdraw its troops."
Li Zhe heard the footsteps approaching from behind, but had no intention of turning around.
"Hey! Unexpectedly, these Americans still have a keen sense of smell? We just started preparing, and they have already started running away!"
"Haha! Isn't this the Empire's mighty blitzkrieg, which has shocked them all? If we take a little action here, the other side will panic and run away after hearing the wind!"
Both of them were smiling, so relaxed.
The empire has decided to go to war with the United States! Now, it is in the preparation stage, but it is impossible to hide this early movement from the other party.
There are too many exchanges between the empire and the United States, and the mutual penetration is very powerful! There are many Chinese immigrants in the United States, and there are also many white-skinned European and American immigrants in China. This means that the two sides are destined to take actions against each other, which is difficult to hide. What's more, this time, the empire has mobilized so many troops and consumed so much materials. It is weird that the Americans can't get any news!
Guo Jia smiled and continued:
"According to the intelligence just received, the first batch of 30,000 troops from the US retreating troops in the Philippines have begun to embark. This batch of people will pass through Guam and Hawaii and return to the west coast of the United States. The subsequent batches will also be the same. However, there is a trend in the U.S. troop withdrawal plan that we have obtained that deserves our attention. The goal of the U.S. 28th Infantry Division and 19th Infantry Division is to withdraw to Australia!"
"Oh?" Li Zhe was a little surprised when he heard this, and smiled, "Have the Americans already known about our march plan? They actually withdrew their troops to Australia so early. Is this obviously to prepare for Australia? ?¡± As for who is the specific target of this defense? Of course, you can tell without asking.
"No, this is not enough! The empire's specific march plan is still only circulated among the top brass of our expeditionary force, and it is absolutely impossible for the Americans to find out. The only possibility is that the U.S. General Staff has already formulated a long-term war with us Plan and start implementing it step by step!¡±
"Oh! That's what you mean!" Li Zhe nodded and pondered, "That means that the Americans have decided to focus their main energy on the Atlantic direction, and here they have chosen to retreat temporarily. They can delay it for as long as they can, and put their main focus on it. We are focusing on the strategic defense of the Pacific Ocean, while Australia is preparing to start preparations as soon as possible and strive to be ready for defense when we turn our attention to them?"
"Well, that should be it. The U.S. military system is not good at adapting. It has not fought for a long time. The U.S. military system is backward and its tactics are old-fashioned. Although it has undergone expansion and industrial transformation, the military's combat scale and equipment will soon keep up. , but the combat experience of the officers and soldiers in the army is very scarce, and their combat effectiveness is low. I am afraid they have no desire to fight with us alone!
"To stay away from us in the Asia-Pacific direction and not to confront us head-on is definitely the wishful thinking of the US Department of Defense. Of course, this is probably inseparable from the lobbying of the Allied countries in the U.S. Congress and its top figures.
In this case, the enemy must have established a long-term defense plan. The vastness of the Pacific Ocean is enough to serve as a barrier. But Australia, if we jump all the way along the South Pacific Islands, it will easily threaten us. The American soldiers are now among the Allied Powers. Fake and shoddy products, but the only advantage is that they are moved wherever needed, and help protect Australia. This must be the result of all negotiations between the Americans and the British! "
Li Zhe waved his hand,
"It doesn't matter. No matter how the Allies arrange it, they can't resist the attack of the empire! In short, this time we are like a lion fighting a rabbit, using all our strength! We will never give the Americans any time to breathe. Humph! They want to fight in Europe Don¡¯t even think about training a group of mature soldiers and tactics on the battlefield, and then turning against us!"
Guo Jia also said:
"Yes, that's it. If we start a war with the United States quickly, it will also relieve the Germans. In a short period of time, the pressure on West Asia and the Caucasus will not be so great."
Li Zhe nodded, it is true, this is also very important.
¡°Germany is not the only one who does not want to fight a war in two directions at the same time.
¡¡
The bow of the ship split the sea like a sharp sword, and the hundreds of thousands of tons of steel behemoths, like dozens of moving giant mountains, exerted their might on the sea!
