The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"Damn it! What's the situation? Could it be that our team came here overnight? Then there's no need to do such a dirty trick! If it's blown up, you don't need to spend money to rebuild it! It's really a rich and powerful local tyrant, it's too uncivilized , too inelegant...!"

Yuan Zhi was full of humbug, full of happiness, grinning and complaining, and showed off his golden armor of a local tyrant in a serious manner. In the public, countless people passing by couldn't help blowing their whistles, even not far away. The policemen and militiamen who rushed out to guard on duty also cast their attention, but none of them fired guns like they did at the beginning!

In just a few months, the "superheroes" have been thoroughly localized.Even though several comic companies were forced to suspend their publications, this gang of violent saboteurs with millions of brain-dead fans, who specialize in confronting the government, the military, and consortiums, wealthy financiers, and capitalists, has become the idol of countless low-level Americans. Heroes represent.

I have to say that this matter is very weird, but it is easy to understand in the current social background.

The Western world at the beginning of the 20th century was definitely not the so-called beacon of freedom and paradise on earth half a century later.In the process of the industrial revolution, all kinds of unscrupulous and bottomless capitalists did everything they could to squeeze the last bit of power from the people. Even the great progress in industrial manufacturing did not bring much improvement to the lives of the people at the bottom. , the real profit.

Regardless of how the government and capitalists tout it, the invention of the assembly line is definitely not to reduce the workload of workers, but to create the maximum profit in the shortest working time.Looking at the ratio of benefits created per unit time, we know that compared with the beginning of the industrial revolution 100 years ago, when sheep cannibalized people, the ratio of workers’ income has not really changed much.

The superficial prosperity is achieved by overdrafting their poor income for many years to come.As soon as the economic crisis came, it was immediately revealed.

Do ordinary Americans really not know where their tragedy originated from?Unless they are all fools!It is very clear, but there is no way to resist!The guns in their hands are by no means proclaimed that in order to protect their freedom and rights, they can overthrow the government if they are in a hurry... That is all bullshit.When will a bunch of light weapons that cannot be fired in bursts be able to confront the government and financial consortia with aircraft, cannons, tanks and warships?It's purely putting gold on your face!

The Great Depression in 1929 can be said to have completely penetrated the bottom line of capitalist plutocratic monopoly, and the entire system of the United States and even Western society is bottoming out.Unemployment and famine for tens of millions of people, and malnutrition for a whole generation have made the people of the United States and Western countries intolerable. Even if the government and financial groups resort to war again to divert conflicts and consume excess production materials, it will be difficult to fundamentally solve the problem. .

then.With the threat of the spread of communism, the government and financial groups began to make limited compromises, but the progress was still slow and insufficient.

Under such circumstances, although Zhu Bin created a bunch of "superheroes" who looked all kinds of tall, rich and handsome on the surface, they immediately became the spokespersons of the general public because of their stance.Even the police and militia, which are the violent machines of the government, have their bones.They were all civilians too, since they couldn't beat this group of well-equipped villains, they might as well just pretend they couldn't see them.

Zuo is just a job, so it's not worth working so hard!

Under such a contradictory situation, now Yuan Zhi is carelessly walking sideways in the street, and few people care about him.The private armed forces of the Morgan and other consortiums have been fighting desperately, but they can't help, the fbi can't find anyone to deal with it, so let him go.

Yuan Zhi was dressed in a steel battle suit, emitting a unique light.He was particularly conspicuous in the dark city, and he didn't like being watched like a monkey, so he simply opened the jetpack and soared into the sky, chose a nearby tallest building, climbed to the top, and looked at it from a distance.

But seeing the direction of the port, dozens of gigantic rays of light exploded like the rising sun, resplendent and brilliant, illuminating half of the city as bright as day!

Immediately, the loud thunder that shook the ground made the ground tremble even more. It echoed continuously in a radius of more than ten miles. The glass of the buildings in the suburbs shattered and shattered. Even in the city center, it felt as if the sky was about to collapse. Subsidence is generally terrible!

I can't blame Yuan Zhi for complaining.Really, that thing is too noisy!Based on his understanding of his own high-end military force, he can tell at a glance that the electromagnetic bombs must be used to destroy the power supply first, and then the ones that explode continuously are at least the first-level killers of cloud bombs!

This is not one or two, this is dozens of consecutive releases!Yuan Zhi reckoned that there should not be anything whole left inside and outside the poor port of Los Angeles.

The U.S. Navy and civilian transportation forces, the countless materials and equipment piled up on the port wharf, and the hundreds of ships of various types crowded in the port, under such a terrible blow, not many can survive!

In particular, the gliding bombs and missiles that are designed to target large ships and large piles of storage materials, one can support a cruiser, and if they are dropped in piles, the entire coastline will be engulfed in a sea of ​​flames. It's all bad luck!

Yuan Zhi slapped his knees and praised: "It's good! It's fun! Overbearing! You are indeed a big boss, and the shot is a fairy fart-extraordinary! This strength probably made old Roosevelt vomit blood! There is no place to mess around!"

Cities that have been attacked by electromagnetic weapons, if they want to restore power supply, relying on the current level, don't even think about it for ten days and a half months. Just fighting the fire is enough for them to be busy. Not to mention, the dark city is in chaos After that, all kinds of thugs came out to make trouble together, even if the National Guard came forward, it might not be easy.

This hand is really black!

Yuan Zhi is not a strategist, but he can imagine how hard it would be for the Americans when the bomb fell on the mainland.They dreamed that they were the safest place in the world. Now that the lie has been broken and the crisis is at hand, who can listen to the government's nonsense with peace of mind!

It is foreseeable that the West Coast of the United States, which has a small population, is bound to usher in an unprecedented wave of fleeing!Movie company bosses, celebrities, government dignitaries, farmers and big bosses who are afraid of being hit by bombs, who don't cherish their lives?Needless to say.Must run to the central part overnight, at least have to cross the Sierra Nevada?

A chaotic West Coast, how much more difficult would it be to transport supplies for the Pacific theater?It is conceivable!

This night, many people are destined to be unable to sleep peacefully.

The bombing of Los Angeles is just an appetizer.The real boss is in San Francisco!

After the same electromagnetic bomb was swept over, a group of heavy bombers flying from the sea sub-base drove straight in, proudly crossed the coastal defense line whose radar was useless, and dropped all the heavy gliding bombs it carried at an altitude of about [-] kilometers from San Francisco. Throw it out.

A heavy bomber can carry at least eight bombs of more than one ton, and as many as twelve or more cluster bombs.Smart bombs and more.

A team of six planes shot together, dropping hundreds of tons of bombs, and the destructive power was equivalent to six or seven hundred tons!The warheads falling from a high altitude are evenly distributed, focusing on large ships. The whole San Francisco is also boiling like a volcanic eruption. Some people even suspect that the entire continent will collapse.Slip into the sea!

Roosevelt didn't fall asleep at night, and there was an explosion on the west coast.It was monitored by military depots on the sea and on the outskirts of the two major cities. The alarm that was sent immediately went straight to the White House. He almost stood up when he heard it, and roared with bloodshot eyes: "What are you talking about? The Chinese are really launching an attack on the West Coast. Bombed?!"

"I'm afraid it is true! A more detailed report will be sent soon, Mr. President. We are in trouble, big trouble!"

The old man Hopkins has also been tossing miserably during this period, and he can still hold on thanks to the good maintenance for many years, but he can't help but be shocked by such news and sweat all over, don't expect to sleep.If you can take time off to rest for a few days in a row, it is considered as a meritorious ancestor.

Roosevelt was silent. This time, he didn't ask how the Chinese did it. It didn't make any sense, and Zhu Bin proved with facts that as long as he wanted to do it, he would be able to do it. The so-called space restriction or something, Only for other people, such as Hitler and the like, he is not included.

It's really a big trouble!When Roosevelt thought about it, he knew how much pressure and challenges he would face tomorrow!

To be honest, with regard to the issue of participating in the war, the opinions within the United States are not unified, and the conservative forces are very strong. He relied on his own prestige to save the economy and the support of major financial groups to force the proposal. At the same time, he also played the tragic card. With today's series of actions.

The Chinese navy's attack on the Pacific base and the destruction of Fletcher's mixed fleet can be regarded as finalizing the war, and basically there will be no repetitions, but he never expected to be hit on the mainland so soon!How would the American people feel?How big of a panic would there be on the West Coast?If the other side went further and directly landed and attacked, cut off the Pacific Railway, and cut off the link between the west and the center, how could the United States cross thousands of meters of mountains to snatch it back?Both are big questions!

While contemplating, staff members and military personnel arrived one after another. Originally, they lived not far away, and no one could hide away after such a big incident happened.

Army Chief of Staff Marshall's head was covered with sweat, and his face was as gloomy as the bottom of the pot. He scanned the crowd who were talking in low voices, but found no one with a confident expression. Obviously, they were all severely hit by the news. .The changes in the battle situation far exceeded their expectations. All the strategic planning made before have all become waste paper!

The communication lines directly connected to the White House from the Pacific Theater Command were all working at full capacity. Since the Pentagon of the Army Command had only just broken ground, Roosevelt simply put everything in front of him, so he could command.

A large stack of telegrams and faxes was quickly accumulated and distributed by the secretaries. A few blurred photos taken at low altitude by night reconnaissance planes first shocked a group of generals!

When Marshall saw it, his eyes immediately went dark, his arms were trembling, and he lost his voice: "God! The port of San Francisco has been blown up! The equipment for the Second Armored Division has just been shipped there, and it's all over now!"

Chief of Naval Operations Harold Stark said in a deep voice: "It's not enough! The ten [-]-ton oil tankers we prepared for the Air Force have just entered the port, and they seem to have been destroyed! If anything happens to the Panama Canal, The entire Hawaiian and Pacific Fleets will be in serious shortfall!"

"There are also supplies for the 20 army, and I'm afraid they are all gone!"

"The 500-ton wharf just completed, the [-] million-ton material warehouse, the large tower crane, and the latest rescue ship...!"

You glance at me and say a word, and each provides a loss judgment from the scope of responsibility.The accumulated numbers are heart-wrenching.

Roosevelt was furious when he heard this, waved his hand fiercely, and shouted: "Don't worry about the loss! Who can tell me why our radar didn't find anything? Are the coast guards lazy? Or is there some other reason? Los Angeles and San Francisco are all blacked out, power plants, substations, and telephone companies and telegraph offices are all paralyzed! How much riots might there be? How likely is it that the Chinese will forcefully land and attack? I hope to hear constructive opinions!"

Most people can answer the first few questions.China's radar is so powerful, so there must be countermeasures. It is not a big problem to avoid the simple and sparse radar of the United States.Now that the war is so tense, I am afraid that no one will be lazy. The electromagnetic laboratory can answer the damage of power facilities. It is just that it is difficult for them to achieve such a large-scale serious strike. It does not mean that they have been playing with electromagnetic shielding since seven or eight years ago. Zhu Bin is not good at playing.

It's hard to say about landing operations.

After all, Marshall could be relied upon.After careful consideration, I made a cautious suggestion: "We cannot rule out this possibility, but I think that the Chinese will use the same method to destroy the Pacific Railway and cut off the transfer of materials and armaments on the west coast. Therefore, I suggest that the Nevada Railway be strengthened. The vigilance and the unimpeded guarantee of the Panama Canal. If possible, completely destroy the secret base in the Eastern Pacific!"

After listening to Roosevelt, he clapped his hands: "This is a valuable proposal. I think Mr. Chief of Staff is right! The active attack of the Chinese shows that they are empty inside, and they cannot launch a large-scale landing in a short period of time. For combat, there are fewer people coming, and we can only accumulate actual combat experience for our army boys! Preventing them from destroying is the main thing!"

In fact, everyone can think of these two proposals, but they must have the courage to say them. They are old bureaucrats and old fritters, and no one wants to make mistakes.On the contrary, it gave Marshall a chance to perform.

Secretary of the Army Henry Stimson coughed lightly and said: "We have deployed sufficient defenses on the west coast before. All the tunnels and bridges along the railway line are equipped with anti-aircraft weapons, and there are a large number of aircraft patrolling at any time. Stationed in the ground, respond at any time!"

He didn't dare to talk too much. At this time, anyone who thinks that Zhu Bin is not capable of going deep into the interior will be too stupid.

Roosevelt shook his head: "That's still not enough! Don't forget, there are so many nasty pests in our country that the FBI can't catch! They are all spies sent by the Chinese to make trouble! At this time, we must prevent them from taking the opportunity to sabotage! "

He was talking about those "superheroes" of course.

The generals and senior officials have encountered difficulties. If those guys were easy to deal with, they would not be active today. They are all slippery and they have a mass base. It is too difficult to catch them!

Therefore, this matter is tacitly not discussed. General Stark suggested: "The attack on the secret base in the Eastern Pacific Ocean is urgent. I think this attack was launched from there, even including the large-scale breach of diplomatic relations during the day! The magnitude of the loss is beyond our tolerance."

Mr. Hopkins reminded: "This matter needs to be considered in the long term. We ...."

Roosevelt blatantly poked through the window paper: "Morgan and Rockefeller, I will go and explain it to them! The strength and existence of the United States is the fundamental basis of their interests! If the United States fails, the dollar is a pile of waste paper! They won't understand this truth!"

It goes without saying that Morgan and Rockefeller have coveted the Eastern Pacific Base for a long time, and privately treat it as a taboo, and no one else is allowed to touch it.

Now that the war has begun, they are still reluctant to break the pots and pans. They judge that all of Zhu Bin's wealth and inventions come from the two big consortiums there, and they regard grabbing the base as a crucial goal of action. It is difficult to agree with the military's decision. Indiscriminate bombing!

At this time, Roosevelt can't care so much. The United States has been severely slapped in the face. If Zhu Bin is not dealt with, the United States will inevitably be divided again. If people don't listen to him, they will lose their foundation, so where will they go?Europe?Hitler is just waiting to peel off the skins of these Jews!

No matter how awesome the senior officials are, they dare not compete with the big bosses of the consortium, and they don't want to say too much.

Roosevelt secretly sighed in disappointment, and decided to continue to give speeches to the American people, inciting public opinion to support him. As for how dangerous the next war would be..., he had already decided that he planned to be the second in Washington.

It's actually pretty good to be recorded in history like this, isn't it?

In the White House, the minds of the entire United States worked diligently overnight to formulate various countermeasures. On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, Zhu Bin did not disclose a word to the news media about the bombing of the West Coast, and continued as if it had never happened. Follow the Hawaiian naval battle.

This kind of performance made the people around him a little confused.Didn't he himself yell "It's better to be brave enough to chase the poor" all day long?Now that the battle has started, why don't we take the opportunity to expand the results? If we can force the United States to compromise and negotiate, it would be better than fighting to the death with them?

After all, including Jiang Baili, they don't have full confidence in defeating the alliance of great powers!

Faced with doubts, Zhu Bin never admitted that he actually wanted to drive the Americans to a point where they had nowhere to go but to fight to the death. He explained sanctimoniously: "Although our navy is powerful, it is still not capable of sweeping the The entire Pacific Ocean, let the big powers completely put away their aggression. Being able to fight like this is already the limit of our ability, knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, let the Yankees and the big powers know that we are capable and determined to cause serious harm to them, so that they dare not persecute them excessively Overseas Chinese! And for us to further strengthen our strength, first completely crush the enemies at our doorstep and win precious time!"

When everyone thinks about it, this is right!Sure enough, he is worthy of being a commander who focuses on the overall situation, and his vision is long-term!Being able to think of the safety of overseas Chinese first is worthy of being a teacher of the benevolent!

Playing a full game, Zhu Bin immediately issued a statement to the world: "No matter any fierce confrontation with other countries, overseas Chinese in other countries are innocent, and all countries must provide equal protection for their personal and property safety and freedom. If persecution If it goes too far, we will definitely take measures, don’t say that we are unpredictable!” (To be continued..)
