Chapter 322 Return to Pearl Harbor: The First Battle(2/2)
Major General Bullard straightened his uniform again, then picked up his saber, took the surrender document, and said, "Let's go."
He knew very well that if the Chinese did not need a relatively complete Guam base so that they could quickly provide mid-way supplies during the Pacific War, it is likely that Guam and these thousands of soldiers would be in danger of being annihilated instead of letting them
Organize the surrender yourself calmly.
After all, if Guangzhou serves as a transit point and saves thousands of kilometers of supply distance, their fleet can be in the depths of the Pacific for a long time, and even fight with the United States in coastal areas close to the Americas.
If it is paired with strategic bombing like the B-29... Brad believes that they must have similar weapons. Perhaps that will be a disaster for the United States, but Brad believes that if God fails in his duty and sides with the yellow race,
Then everything will be over sooner or later. At present, he only needs to protect these thousands of American troops so that they will not be abused by the Chinese.
On the specially prepared lawn next to the runway of Guam Airport, more than 3,000 Americans with U.S. citizenship were already waiting there.
After Major General Bullard arrived, everyone paid attention and saluted.
The war on Guam failed, but the general was not blamed. If we really want to use the Chinese terminology, it is called a "crime other than war."
Five minutes later, an army was seen slowly coming along the road, with seven or eight light amphibious tanks at the front, followed by military trucks and off-road combat vehicles containing soldiers.
On board the vehicle were Chinese Marine Corps officers and soldiers wearing uniforms of the Marine Corps.
I saw that their combat uniforms were more impressive than the single-color combat uniforms of the US military. The soldiers wore steel helmets. Multiple tactical packages on the uniforms were stuffed with things. They held clear semi-automatic or fully automatic weapons in their hands.
Automatic rifles, some even held a rocket launcher in their hands...
"Gah..."
There were approximately several hundred officers and soldiers in this group. After seeing the US officers and soldiers lined up with hand-guns to 'welcome', the convoy stopped and then spread out in a battle formation.
"Get out of the car, search! Be alert!"
A lieutenant colonel wearing the insignia of a lieutenant colonel gave a loud order, and the troops quickly dispersed. Except for a small number of soldiers who stayed and pointed their guns at the surrendered American officers and soldiers, the others began to search nearby and became alert.
In fact, it is necessary, because at this time, as long as you look up, you can see at least three or four fighter jet formations whizzing past at medium and low altitudes.
"Hello. I am the supreme commander of Guam, Rear Admiral Rudd of the United States Navy."
General Bullard was led by a lieutenant colonel and came to the highest-ranking Lieutenant Colonel of the Defense Forces at the scene.
"Hello, I am Lieutenant Colonel Huang Hui of the Marine Corps of the Chinese National Defense Force." The Lieutenant Colonel did not salute, but just said: "Our general will be here soon."
The U.S. troops present had seen the elites of the Chinese Army. Compared with their own bodies or their previous equipment, they found that it was difficult to find Coca-Cola bottles or chewing gum on Chinese soldiers. Each of them seemed to be armed to the point of
Teeth of the tiger.
They are not as "short", "thin", "vulnerable", "can't even stand the most basic posture of a soldier", "they are just a group of pseudo-soldiers who started out as bandits" as described in this small newspaper... On the contrary, from
For them, these American officers and soldiers who were waiting to be announced by the Chinese as surrendering felt that the Chinese officers and soldiers they saw in person for the first time were so mysterious and intimidating.
China and the United States then conducted exchanges and consultations on this matter, and immediately after preparing for the surrender ceremony, Lieutenant Colonel Huang Hui reported the results to the armored commander Feng Shang to the aircraft carrier battle group.
As both sides waited, time passed quickly. More than 20 minutes later, when many American troops, including Major General Bullard, were still staring at the end of the road, a strange roar came from behind the hill in the distance.
came.
This kind of roar is different from the roar of ordinary aircraft, but many US military personnel are sure that it is the engine sound of aircraft or other large engines. However, at this time, the Chinese aircraft in the sky are flying higher, and there are people all around.
Any Chinese tank that moves moves.
"What is that..."
Just when everyone was wondering, a strange plane suddenly rose vertically from behind the hill.
"God, that's a Chinese helicopter, no, no, it's an armed helicopter!!!" Helicopters continued to fly from behind Xiao Xiaoao, and finally five helicopters flew straight over at an ultra-low altitude of fifty meters.
Except for the Chinese officers and soldiers present, most Americans only recognized it as a helicopter. A very small number of military cutting-edge technology enthusiasts shouted out the name of the armed helicopter when they saw the ferocious weapon system.
Yes, that is the Thunderbolt armed helicopter that took off from the transport ship and was used to assist the landing troops in landing on Guam. This kind of armed helicopter has fierce firepower, strong protection, good maneuverability and very durability, so this time it is one of the Pacific Expeditionary Fleet.
A member of the Marine Corps transport ship, providing fire support for the fleet to occupy a few extremely important Pacific islands.
Four armed helicopters were hovering above the heads of the Americans, and one of the Thunder helicopters slowly lowered its altitude. The strong winds caused by the helicopters getting lower and lower even made the American troops who were closer close their eyes slightly.
The Thunderbolt finally landed on the ground, its propellers stopped rotating, and it put down two people wearing the uniforms of senior Wehrmacht officers before taking off again.
"salute!!"
Upon seeing this, Lieutenant Colonel Huang Hui shouted an order and stood at attention to salute. The first person to get off the helicopter was Major General Jiang Ming, the commander of the heavy aircraft carrier battle group.
After a ceremony, the surrender ceremony officially began. Rear Admiral Bullard handed over the commander's saber and the instrument of surrender to Rear Admiral Jiang Ming, commander of the Chinese Pacific Fleet Battle Group.
Since then, Guam has surrendered, and more than 3,000 US troops have become the first batch of prisoners of war between China and the United States. Guam was also not seriously damaged, but it was quickly repaired and became the most powerful place for China's Pacific Fleet to fight in the deep Pacific.
Good midway supply and transfer station.
What is surprising is that Major General Bullard chose to "commit suicide" after the surrender ceremony.
But what is even more surprising is that Major General Bullard's brief last words were as follows: "As the first person, I am under a lot of pressure. I hope that my death can exonerate those who come after..."
After settling the matter on Guam and leaving a small fleet to handle the subsequent landing forces to occupy and repair the military facilities on Guam, the heavy aircraft carrier battle group soon embarked on the journey again, catching up with the main expeditionary force of the Pacific Fleet and reintegrating into the main force.
Large fleet.
Washington, White House.
"Have you found the location of the main force of the Chinese fleet?\'"
President Roosevelt of the United States is sitting in a wheelchair. His fingers are tapping the wheels of the wheelchair rhythmically, which shows his worry.
"Their squadron quickly resolved the battle on Guam and occupied our Guam, and then the squadron disappeared. According to our analysis, it should have rejoined the main force of their fleet and came towards us." White House Intelligence
Supervisor Smith said tiredly.
Ever since the Chinese appeared in Guam, launched an attack on Guam, and forced the U.S. defenders on Guam to surrender, the U.S. government has been under tremendous pressure, and as the White House intelligence chief, Smith is under even greater pressure.
.
Washington murmured: "Maybe we need to quickly deploy more advanced anti-jamming radar."
Smith replied: "Yes, Mr. President, but at present we have the secrets of the Chinese interference technology that we can master, and we don't know what the upper limit of their interference technology is. So..."
What he means is that if the limits of the Chinese jamming capabilities are not known, then even the most advanced radar in the United States may not be able to survive.
"Action can solve all difficulties." Roosevelt shook his head and said, then let him go out and brought in Admiral Nimitz, commander of the Navy's Pacific Fleet, who was already waiting for him outside.
After a while, General Nimitz walked through the door.
"Are our preparations sufficient? If we rely on Pearl Harbor, can we have a decisive battle with them in the Pacific? President Roosevelt asked urgently. Compared with the minor losses in Guam, this is what he is most concerned about. "I
General, I hope you understand, Japan
I am stepping up my march, and there are enough signs that their intention is to invade somewhere on our west coast. The threat from the Chinese is even greater. They dispatched the entire reinforced Pacific Fleet. The Chinese, who had been dormant for decades, finally explored
out of their claws."
Nimitz thought for a moment and then said, "Except for necessary reservations, we have mobilized all the surplus naval forces we can mobilize, and the tragedy of the attack on Pearl Harbor will never happen again. The Pacific Fleet will fight to the bitter end.
, rather than being shamefully sneak-attacked and sunk in the harbor."
Although the Navy has already reported its response plan to the Pacific War to Roosevelt, the president obviously still needs more confidence from the Navy. Nimitz said with certainty that he was not bragging randomly but that he was confident in the strengthened U.S.
Trust in the Pacific Fleet.
"We are well prepared and have some unknown advanced weapons. We will not fail again this time."
Nimitz kept one thing he did not say, that is, "Even if we fail again this time, it will not be as disastrous as the last time."
Roosevelt nodded and said, "If we fail, we will lose the Pacific and the enemy will be able to reach our west coast."
"Yes, Mr. President."
More than twenty days later, after making a long circle in the vast Pacific Ocean, the Chinese Pacific Fleet finally arrived at a place only a few hundred kilometers away from Pearl Harbor. What is interesting is that the position of the fleet this time is the same as the last time it attacked Pearl Harbor.
is located on an Earth meridian.
"Report!"
On board the Huangdi, in the war room, a hurried report sounded outside Ge Yunsheng's office.
"Report to the Commander, the Seahawk reconnaissance aircraft No. 015 has discovered an American fleet two hundred nautical miles away."
Ge Yunsheng was overjoyed when he heard this and ordered: "With the order, a combat meeting will be held."
After the order was issued, Ge Yunsheng took off his military cap from the coat rack, adjusted his military appearance, and said in the mirror: "The time has come for us to return to Pearl Harbor. We can only win in this naval battle, not lose."

This Pacific Naval War will be written in two relatively concise chapters, or at most three chapters.
I went out on New Year's Day, so I apologize for the interruption and wish all my brothers and sisters a Happy New Year.
