Chapter 31 Events that shook the world

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Long Chongjiu stayed on Dragon Island for a few days, and then rushed back to New York. Basically no one knew what happened in Germany.

He asked someone to pass a message to the German head, so that they could contact Lyudmila, meet all her requirements as much as possible, and provide protection to her. Lyudmila's next task was to dig out some talents from the German Welfare and Military Academy.

Speaking of Lyudmila, she is not a German. Her hometown is in the Czech Republic, and she is just developing her career in Germany. Today, Germany is not a good place to develop her career. Everything is preparing for the war and has become a crazy nation.

For Lyudmira, she has now become a professional spy. She not only wins away some talents for Long Chongjiu, but also collects inside information about the German team. In addition, she also uses her clever communication methods to deal with many officers.

In Italy, there were people who passed on information for him, and in Japan, Chen Jingwu was responsible for it. The general actions of the fascist Axis powers were under the control of Long Chongjiu. In the specific situation in China, they were often connected with Chen Zhixiong, Gu Zhuxuan, Ma Yongzhen and others.

Long Chongjiu spent a few days in New York, and many large American companies were secretly acquired by Long Chongjiu, but this country is big. After years of continuous acquisition plans, it has almost monopolized one-third of the US economy.

After the economic recovery, the production and consumption levels in the United States rebounded rapidly, and with the secret acquisition of Long Chongjiu, the injected funds revitalized many companies, which accelerated the pace of their economic recovery. President Roosevelt was able to be re-elected because of this relationship.

In fact, the relationship between Long Chongjiu and Lao Luo is quite close. It can be said that Lao Luo trusts Long Chongjiu and is working hard to change his attitude towards China, because Long Chongjiu often talks about the Nanjing government and the people's hearts in front of him.

In early December 1937, the Japanese army rushed to the Nanjing government. Most of the Japanese troops withdrew from Shanghai and the Japanese troops landed in Jinshanwei merged and bypassed Shanghai to attack Suzhou, Wuxi and other places. Due to the victory of Shanghai, the momentum was greatly boosted, and the Japanese army's spirit was completely devastated, but it also stimulated their ferociousness. With the fall of Suzhou and Wuxi, the Japanese beast soldiers raped and plundered and killed them, and did everything.

On December 8, 200,000 Japanese troops completed the siege of Nanjing. In the following days, Nanjing fell and the Nanjing massacre that shocked the world began. Perhaps because of the failure in Shanghai, the Japanese troops entering Nanjing killed everyone when they saw it, and raped women first and then killed them.

A few days later, the facts of the Nanjing Massacre began to leak out. It was not until mid-March 1938 that the massacre turned into a small massacre. Because the Japanese government faced a very powerful international condemnation, they had to put pressure on the army in China. In fact, the Japanese army had lost control in this regard. As long as you could see Chinese women on the street, they would strip them naked and kill them.

Long Chongjiu, standing on the top floor of the Empire State Building on Manhattan Street, looked solemn. He had just decided on a major event. Yesterday he had a radio conversation with Arab Aziz. Nanjing's beastly actions made Long Chongjiu angry, so he decided to declare war on Japan.

Aziz's development in Arabia was quite rapid, and the domestic situation was unified and the people wanted. Now, in Jianshe, the founding of the country, we are working hard to develop the economy, mainly oil. With the oil experts sent by Long Chongjiu, it is beneficial to construction.

When Long Chongjiu told him that he would declare war on Japan, Aziz agreed after he hesitated. He was worried that he would cause greater international conflicts. After all, the Arab Democratic Republic was just established, which was similar to the Dragon Federation. That's how two countries actually challenged the Great Japanese Empire? Long Chongjiu convinced Aziz without much effort. In fact, Aziz always regarded Long Chongjiu as the leader of the mentor level in his heart. Once he came, Long Chongjiu almost missed it, and the development of the Dragon Federation was also rapid.

"Aziz, if we want our influence to influence the future world, now is an opportunity. The atrocities of the Japanese invaders have completely lost their human nature. We are declaring war on the beast kingdom. You don't need to worry about anything. Arabia is enough to influence the world's economy with the advantages of oil. We must show strength, let more people know us, and let more countries recognize us. Do you still hesitate?"

"Oh, Your Majesty Long, I won't hesitate. You have always been guiding me to become stronger. Arabs have a bright future today and it is your credit. I really saw a powerful Arab stand up in the Middle East. We must have greater influence."

"Very good, Aziz, we have more than two months to prepare. You have to dispatch at least 500,000 Marines and all your current naval forces. As for the defense missions in the Arabian waters, I will give my Fourth Fleet to serve. We will land on the Japanese mainland for combat this time. Xi Ran can invade China, why can't we invade them? You can prepare all this."

Early this morning, Long Chongjiu issued an order to start the wartime economy and prepare for the war. The arsenal produces a large amount of ammunition, putting down some large-scale military production first, and stopping such as aircraft carriers for a month before talking about it.

At noon that day, Long Chongjiu called Lao Luo in Washington, "Old guy, I can't stand that dehumanized little Japan anymore. I will declare war on Japan with my allies in June at the latest. Do you have any opinions on this?"

"What?" Lao Luo was obviously very shocked, "Oh, guy, aren't you kidding me? I was surprised by this incident, do you know? The intervention of your Dragon Federation and the Arabs will cause World War II."

"Old guy, in fact, World War II is not far away. The fascist alliance with Berlin-Rome-Tokyo as the axis has secretly formulated a plan to divide the world. Japan's invasion of China is a strategic consideration for further annexation of Russia with Germany. China has been weak for a long time, so it was invaded by little Japan. He is a big island country, and he dares to invade China. My small island federal dares to invade his homeland, destroy his wartime economic production, and cause his backyard to catch fire. Let me see how long he can last. In Europe, Hitler and Merlini are ready to start the European war. You won't be able to see it. I don't believe that the Federal Intelligence Agency will not tell you about Germany's situation. In fact, you are also vigorously developing military forces. The war is difficult to affect North America. You are going to make a fortune in war. I will show you my idea, hoping that you will give me strong support from your position and put pressure on Japan from public opinion."

"It seems you are determined to start a war, okay, guy, I will support you from no matter which side I come from."

The dialogue with Lao Luo made Long Chongjiu very satisfied, and then the British government conveyed his intentions and also received support.

Long Chongjiu knew that Lao Luo was right. Once he and Arabs intervened in the Asian battlefield, Nazi Germany and Italy in Europe vowed to take advantage of the chaos to ignite the war in Europe. At that moment, it was really when the world war broke out. Fortunately, his bases were very stable. In the UK, in the United States, and on the Pingyang Dragon Island, they would not be affected by the war. Perhaps the British Islands will be bombed by German troops in the future. As for the United States, they will definitely not be affected. Now even the future crisis in the Hawaiian Islands has been resolved by Long Chongjiu. This is a last resort. It is the only regret that we cannot drag the United States into the war as soon as possible.

Several wives knew that Brother Jiu was going to start a war against Japan in anger. Qi Hui was the most excited. If she hadn't been thrusting her belly, she would have to follow Brother Jiu. However, Long Chongjiu refused any wife to accompany him. He took Susan, Gana, Jenny, Sister Inoue, Zou Huaizhong, and the famous Flying Dagger Huanglongshi set out to Long Island that day. Sangefei wanted to go, and he had no choice.

World public opinion attacked the Japanese government, but they denied all the evil behaviors in Nanjing and tried their best to cover up the truth.

Several European countries, including the United States and Britain, withdrew their consulates from Japan, and all expressed that they had cut off diplomatic relations with the "beast" countries, which put the Japanese government in a very embarrassing state of diplomacy. However, this did not affect their grand strategy in China. In fact, the troops they had invested in the Chinese battlefield at this time had exceeded 1 million, and there were dozens of warships floating on the Yangtze River.

The first thing Long Chongjiu did when he arrived at Long Island was to inspect the armored legion that had been trained by Rommel for several months. In fact, Ge Xingba had been training for them before this, but he lacked example textbooks, and Rommel was a physical version of the textbook. After World War I, he spent almost as an instructor in various military academies. He was a professor-level figure in military classes.

Long Chongjiu's arrival brought training and reorganization to a more intense stage. All 100,000 reserve officers and soldiers became regular soldiers, and they were regular soldiers who were proficient in armor tactics. The photographers used documentary techniques to record each military course of Rommel, and then copied several copies. At the same time, they taught cinema-style classes throughout the island. In the morning, the theory of theory, the practice of the afternoon, and even tactical exercises. Rommel was tireless and slept almost four hours a day. He focused on strategic research and military training.

In order to expand the strength of the navy, Long Chongjiu bought or rented aircraft carriers from the UK and the United States, and more than 60 destroyers, more than 20 submarines, and twelve heavy artillery battleships. Although most of them are old ships of these two countries, they still have strong combat power.

All docks on Long Island in Xinli Island have undergone a two-month renovation of this group of old ships, working overtime day and night, and must complete the renovation work before June, implement an all-weather shift system for the staff, and temporarily recruit hundreds of thousands of workers.

In mid-May, Long Island established the Supreme Command of War, and Long Chongjiu, who had little knowledge of military affairs, served as the Supreme Commander to coordinate the Army, Navy and Air Force. The Minister of the Navy and Commander-in-Chief of the Navy was still Major General Judy, and the Minister of the Air Force and Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force was still Major General Joni. The Minister of the Army and Commander-in-Chief of the Army was Brigadier Rommel. Ge Xingba is now also a brigade general and was changed to the Minister of National Defense, mainly responsible for the defense affairs of Long Island. The guards under his jurisdiction did not participate in foreign wars, but only protected the security of the local bases.

After several days of reconnaissance, the people from the Dragon Federation Intelligence Department roughly found out the situation in the Mariana Islands. Now the Japanese army occupies two largest islands in the archipelago, namely Saipan and Tinian Island. The area of ​​the two islands is more than a square kilometers.

Guam was occupied by Americans. Before the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese General Staff did not have the idea of ​​attacking Guam.

The troops garrisoned on Saipan Island are about 6,000, which is the main defense base. The Japanese troops on Tinian Island have about 2,500-3,000.

The combat plan set in advance was to clear the Japanese invaders on Saipan and Tinian Islands, and then march into Iwo Jima and Ogasawara Island.

This is Japan's absolute defense circle. Before Tojo Hidei came to power, the Japanese army did not have more war territory in the ocean. Now there are Japanese troops stationed in Taiwan and North Korea. Judy has formulated a comprehensive combat plan. The six fleets, except for the 1st Fleet in the Dragon Island, the 4th Fleet in the Persian Gulf and the 6th Fleet in the East China Sea, were all transferred back.

The 2nd Fleet was heading to the northwest waters of the Mariana Islands to prevent the Japanese troops from helping Iwo Jima and Taiwan. The 3rd and 5th Fleets attacked Saipan and Tinian respectively. The Longshi Steel Transportation Company temporarily organized a wartime material supply fleet, with more than two large and small ships, but there were only more than ten ships that could actually transport large armored vehicles, which was far from meeting the needs of landing missions. The defenses signed on Saipan and Tinian Island were weak. The Supreme Commander decided to give up the idea of ​​landing the armored corps and switch to a special land regiment.

With the advantages of fleet and air, it is estimated that it is not difficult to complete this task, but if there is greater resistance, casualties may increase.

Long Chongjiu finally decided to launch a sneak attack on Tinian Island, Saipan, which is a way to reduce casualties. At the same time, he emphasized that the firepower of the army and the air force and naval guns will cooperate. Early warning reconnaissance aircraft will conduct accurate reconnaissance on the entire battlefield around the clock, accurately report the heavy firepower distribution points of the Japanese army on the island, and then carry out a devastating blow to it by naval guns and aircraft.

Brigadier Rommel returned to the battlefield again after saying goodbye to the battlefield for nearly twenty years. He will serve as the commander of the temporary marine corps, which consists of 20 special infantry corps, totaling 16,000 troops. They are lightly equipped and their heaviest weapon is a rocket launcher. All supplies, ammunition and food will be provided by the aviation force, and low-altitude flight drops will be carried out.
