Rise from the sword

Chapter 707 Meat grinder.

"Kyle Dover and others were arrested by Li Yunlong and returned to China for trial."

Hearing the news, Franklin almost stood up again, but unfortunately, the miracle did not happen, and he even almost fell down, thanks to the protection of the personal doctor beside him in time.

"How dare they!"

Mr. President obviously couldn't believe it.

These 17 people are all well-known people in the United States, especially Kyle Dover, who is one of the top [-] richest people in the United States. His family power is spread all over the business and political circles, and his influence is huge.

How dare someone catch him?
Except the Germans.

"Are you sure it's them?"

Mr. President still does not believe it.

The sinking of the submarine was covered up by the other party. This can still be said to be an accident, and the other party repeatedly asked if there was a submarine. Obviously they did not want to make things big, and they could not turn their faces directly.

But directly arresting people, and even declaring themselves as family members, how dare they!
"determine."

The secretary replied:

"The leader is Wei Dayong, the captain of a special team of the Independence Regiment."

With the strength of the army, it appeared internationally, and the monk also appeared in newspapers many times. Naturally, it was noticed by the intelligence agencies of all parties. Ordinary people did not know it, but the military definitely knew it.

"Meet their ambassador."

Mr. President's tone was not good.

"correct."

Before the secretary left, Mr. President asked:

"How many technicians came back?"

The other party lacks talents, such as technical workers, technical engineers and other grassroots talents.

Skilled workers can still be trained. Those who are talented and have certain basic knowledge can get started in half a year or a year. For difficult jobs, as long as they are willing to spend money on training, use waste products to grind, and have experienced masters teach them, it can last for a year. , Nagasawa will always be able to cultivate a batch in two or three years.

But engineers, professional technicians, are a collection of knowledge systems that require systematic education, at least five to ten years, or even longer.

As long as the other party cannot recruit enough engineers and technicians, the construction speed will be much slower.

"About two-thirds."

The secretary replied:

"Recently, the demand on the front line has increased significantly, and we have also opened a new batch of factories. The demand for technical personnel has increased, so many foreign technical personnel have come here."

With the bottom-blowing oxygen steelmaking technology, the solution of raw materials such as steel, large-scale water release, and the solution of funding problems, tens of millions of troops and logistics personnel on the front line fought, and the demand soared. Naturally, the American factory began to expand again.

It has to be said that even if the wages are only half or even lower, the so-called "free" country is still more attractive to foreign technical personnel, and a large number of technical personnel who originally worked in the base areas chose to return to the United States.

"They didn't stop?"

Franklin was a little surprised.

"No."

The secretary answered.

······
Washington.

An American bulletproof car was driving on the highway, heading all the way to the White House.

On the luxurious seat in the back row is a Chinese in a round cap and a loose Tang suit—the ambassador to the United States.And it is a new ambassador who took office not long ago,
"Is the president going to see us?"

At this time, the ambassador's tone was calm and his expression was smiling.

"Correct."

The secretary at the side also served as the bodyguard answered.

"Ha ha···"

He took off his hat, revealing short black and white hair. After touching the back of his head, the ambassador suddenly laughed in a low voice.

The smile is full of emotion.

"What are you laughing at?"

The young guards and secretary had great respect for the ambassador.

"It's such a big change."

The ambassador responded with a smile.

As a person born in the last century, he has witnessed the most chaotic half century in the motherland.

The Sino-Japanese War, the Treaty of Shimonoseki, the Eight-Power Allied Forces, the Treaty of Xin Chou, the Beiyang Group, the restoration of the emperor, the situation in the European War, the Northern Expedition, and the unfinished War of Resistance Against Japan.

As a diplomat, he participated in the last European negotiation, and what he experienced is also the epitome of the motherland in recent years.

Endless humiliation.

He still remembers the negotiations after the victory in the European War. He happily negotiated with that group of people, wanting to wash away the humiliation of the past, but in the end he discovered that the victorious country was just a commodity on the negotiating table. People come and go, even if they yell out their throats, no one pays attention.

Like impotent rage.

Tens of thousands of laborers and tens of thousands of people buried their bones in other lands, but what they got in return was such a result of being slaughtered by others.

How sad.

but now.

He put on his hat again, straightened his chest, and showed a confident smile.

The Yankee wants to make trouble.

Want to cut Hu devil.

If in the past, the big powers wanted to bully their own side, it would be so simple, and they would not even have the right to protest, let alone resist, and they would not respond to them when they protested.

The ambassador said no to see.

but now.

They directly sank three Yankee submarines, and arrested seventeen businessmen who had done business with the Japanese, many of whom were well-known people with deep backgrounds, and the leaders even had military backgrounds.

But so what?
The car stopped and the ambassador strode into the White House.

The back is straight and the stride is strong.

······
"Why did your country arrest our businessmen?"

"Release him immediately."

"And make a public apology at this time."

"Otherwise your country will pay the price for this matter."

A senior government official spoke harshly.

"Those people used to help the Japanese dictator in the war. During the war, knowing that the buyer was Japanese, they blatantly sold strategic materials, including oil field facilities that your country severely blocked."

"We have detailed evidence."

Mr. Ambassador smiled and took out a few photos:

"If you don't believe me, we can verify the authenticity of the photos, as well as handwriting identification, and we can also investigate whether there is an alibi."

On the photo is a photo of several people signing documents when Kyle Dover made a deal with the devils. Through a photo, a hanging clock can be seen.

This idiot!

It's fine to sign it by yourself, but no one has photographed it yet.

The corners of American executives' eyes twitched:
"Then your country has no right to arrest my American citizens."

"He's a war criminal."

Mr. Ambassador has a serious tone:

"The oil field equipment he sold enabled Japan to produce more than 100 million tons of fuel oil, and our country sacrificed thousands of heroic soldiers. The precision machine tools he sold enabled Japan to produce excellent Type IV tanks."

"It also killed thousands of fighters."

"If he is let go, wouldn't the lives of nearly [-] soldiers in our country be sacrificed innocently?"

"They will get the justice they deserve."

Mr. Ambassador did not retreat in the slightest:
"During the trial, your country can also send lawyers to defend. We will never wrong a good person, but we will not let a bad person go."

"It doesn't matter where this bad thing is from."

After a series of confrontations, the ambassador even threatened his life during the period, but the ambassador replied in a calm tone. In the end, the high-level American executives chased them away angrily. The ambassador walked away leisurely, with a smile on his lips all the time.

"Ha ha···"

When entering the car, Mr. Ambassador smiled happily and proudly.

"The conversation went well?"

The guard who also served as the secretary asked.

"Do not."

Mr. Ambassador chuckled:
"It's not going well."

"what?"

The guard who also serves as the secretary was taken aback.

Mr. Ambassador didn't go on talking, but thought in his heart, he is getting old, his health is not good, he has high blood pressure, stomach problems, although he is suppressed by domestic medicine, he will retire next year.

I heard that there is a shortage of talented people in the country. Although he is not in good health, he has good knowledge, so he should go to a university to apply for a professor and educate the next generation.

Contribute to the prosperity of the motherland.

One's own strength is the foundation of everything.It is because of the strength behind him that he can say such tough words and his own side can make such tough actions.

Mr. Ambassador is happy.

The conversation just now made him vent all the humiliation in his life, and he felt unprecedentedly relaxed.

······
"Can it be intercepted?"

Some people were happy, while others were aggrieved and angry. Hearing the attitude of the other ambassador, Mr. President of the United States' blood pressure directly exceeded [-], and he was so scared that he quickly took out the imported medicine.

"No."

A naval general sighed:

"Although it's only been a few hours, we can't judge the opponent's route, let alone the opponent's location. The Pacific Fleet is severely understrength, and we don't have so many eyeliners in the Pacific Ocean."

"Hey."

Mr. President felt some pain in his forehead.

Seeing this scene, Vice President Lao Du suddenly said:
"According to the intelligence, the reinforcements sent by the other side have accelerated the attack on the subcontinent."

"Are we going to accept the surrender of the Japanese in the subcontinent?"

Taking a deep breath, Mr. President hesitated.

More than 30 cannon fodder is very attractive, and it is high-quality cannon fodder, but the other side will do what it says, and its attitude is tough. The key is that they are also very strong. If they really get mixed up with Mustache, it will be really troublesome .

For 30 cannon fodder, it is really not worth it.

"Kotaro Ito and Tsutomu Tanaka in the Far East rejected our offer, and continued to attack west and north to expand their territory."

Lao Du continued:

"Combined with the arms delivery contract they signed with the North, this shows that the devils in the Far East are likely to be theirs."

Although there is no evidence, many things do not need evidence.

"Let's take a look first."

Mr. President rubbed his forehead faster:
"Let the navy try to intercept their ships and find a way to rescue people before they get close to the country."

This scene made the corner of Lao Du's mouth twitch slightly.

·····
Just as Wei Dayong ran wildly with the seventeen war criminals he had captured.

West Line.

The fierce battle continued.

The Allied forces rushed towards Cherbourg like a swarm of bees. The navy, air force, and army all came out and launched wave after wave of onslaught.

All kinds of ultimate weapons take turns.

However, the old fox remained unchanged and responded to all changes. With the help of the powerful air defense capabilities of the air defense towers and the huge supply capabilities of the warehouse, he fought steadily, gradually consuming the offensive strength of the Allied forces, and looking for opportunities to counterattack.

This battle, until now, has actually far exceeded the expectations of both sides.

Using more than 200 aircraft, dozens of battleships, an absolute superiority of more than [-] million ground troops, hundreds of heavy guns over [-] inches fired nearly [-] shells, and dropped thousands of expensive ground-penetrating bombs, but Cherbourg Still standing tenaciously here.

Even though most of the anti-aircraft towers were destroyed, the German army still stood here. The ferocious anti-aircraft firepower still shot down the Allied aircraft one after another, and the shore artillery also damaged the Allied warships one after another.

The battle has been going on for two months now. Under the circumstance that the ground troops are rarely dispatched directly to attack, but long-range fire suppression, the British and American hooligans have paid more than 15 casualties, and more than 5000 planes have been shot down. The number exceeded [-] people.

Casualties mainly occurred in the attack and occupation of the air defense tower. Even if the main firepower was destroyed, with the solid structure and the fire support of the surrounding air defense towers, the British and American hooligans would have to pay a heavy price if they wanted to occupy an air defense tower.

And the tank troops raided by the old fox at night.

The huge number of casualties even sparked unrest.

Not a few refused to take part in the Battle of Cherbourg.

Especially the pilots, those dive bomber pilots who threw the ground penetrating bombs, no more than one-third of them could fly back. They were ridiculed as suicide bombings, and the pilots were also mocked as bombs.

Priests are useless.

Before the pilots take off, the high-level will issue some drugs to stimulate morale, and in order to maintain the morale of the troops, many things are also relaxed. The British Empire paid a great price for this war.

This is why the top leaders of the United States can't wait to find cannon fodder.

The casualties were too great.

And the old fox was not much better.

406 naval guns plus super-heavy shells are enough to cause damage to ordinary air defense towers. Even if they cannot penetrate, they can also destroy the upper artillery. Coupled with heavy high-explosive bombs and ground penetrating bombs, his air defense towers are rapidly reduced, and the casualties are also very high. heavy.

Even the more than [-] anti-aircraft towers on the edge have been occupied by the Allied forces, and the anti-aircraft towers on the edge of Cherbourg have completely fallen into the hands of two hooligans. Small-scale battles often occur at night. One of the battles.

Fortunately, the anti-aircraft firepower of the anti-aircraft towers is strong, the naval guns have a long range, poor accuracy, unreasonable warehouse supplies, and the pre-designed underground fortresses between the anti-aircraft towers. The current combat effectiveness is still strong, but morale is also obvious.

Many people committed suicide, and some even surrendered to Britain and the United States. As a last resort, local commanders even used drugs.

After all, the old fox at this time is not on the front line of Cherbourg.

Whether it is the Allied Army Eisenhower or the old fox Rommel, they are gritting their teeth and persisting.

It depends on who can't hold on first.

On this day, the battle that lasted for two months broke out again.

The two sides first launched an astonishing artillery battle with each other. The British and American hooligans had an absolute advantage in firepower. Thousands of long-range cannons were fired at the Cherbourg anti-aircraft artillery group.

But the new rogue Germany did not show any weakness and launched a frenzied counterattack.

Although the number of artillery is not comparable, and the recent battles have also suffered heavy losses, the 128 dual-mounted high-level and dual-purpose guns of the large anti-aircraft towers have thick fully enclosed turrets, and even [-]-inch armor-piercing projectiles cannot directly penetrate them.

Unless the 406 super-heavy armor-piercing projectile can be directly destroyed.

Moreover, it can only be penetrated without hitting the two-meter-thick reinforced concrete layer around the outside.

As for the giant ones, except for the heavy-duty ground-penetrating bombs, all the others are tickling, so that the old fox is planning to upgrade all the air defense towers in the rear to giant air defense towers, and strengthen the defense of the rest.

When the shelling is over, it's the planes.

Hundreds of planes swoop in.

Even though the loss was heavy and a large number of anti-aircraft guns were destroyed, the anti-aircraft tower still showed its original ability, stepping down the dense array of projectiles with crazy firepower.

From time to time, planes were shot down, but there were also many planes that dropped ground penetrating bombs. Of course, the bombs were dropped at high altitudes, and the accuracy was not high, but there were also smoke from several anti-aircraft towers, and one of them directly hit a double-mounted 128 The anti-aircraft artillery, the artillery crew and the artillery were thrown away on the spot.

After the end of the aircraft attack, the artillery battle began again.

It was not until nighttime that the two sides took a rest, but Britain and the United States still arranged a lot of long-range artillery to bombard the Cherbourg air defense towers to prevent the Germans from taking advantage of this time to repair the air defense towers.

And the Germans were not beaten in vain and did not fight back. From time to time, they sent mobile troops to attack weak points and expand their positions.

The two sides fought fiercely every day.

It's like a meat grinder like Verdun 30 years ago.
