blood feud

955、Three-party Situation

No matter how Bai Shujie designed to make the two enemies lose out, the final result is that the little devil has not done anything to the American devil.

After four months of repeated struggles, the little devil finally couldn't bear it on the front line of Guadalcanal Island.

In particular, MacArthur commanded the US-Australian coalition forces to finally break through the blockade of the little devils, and made a massive landing on Bougainville Island on November 1942, 11.

As soon as Bougainville Island was lost, the Konos Japanese Joint Command was already under the direct threat of the US military.Yamamoto 56 and Hyakutake Haruki finally realized that the situation was over.

The most critical thing is not the threat posed by the Americans, but the sudden dispatch of the Papua Jewish Republican Army in the west, which occupied New Britain overnight, and then directly bombed Namatanai with missiles from Rabaul.

Before the sky was completely bright, the bomber had already reached the top of the head, cutting the entire island in two, and the entire battle situation was completely corrupted in an instant, and even the gods could not save it.

Now all fools know that the so-called Papua Jewish Republic is a thug sent by Bai Shujie."Bai Shujie's mysterious cannonball" may fly over the sky above Konos in the north of Namatanai at any time.

Under the sudden change of the situation, Guadalcanal Island has lost all its value. Hideki Tojo of the Little Devils Base Camp resolutely decided to give up and no longer provide supplies to the remaining defenders.

At the same time, the U.S. Marine Corps Major General Patch's 2nd Division and the Army's 25th Infantry Division were transported to Guadalcanal to replace the exhausted 1st Marine Division.

The "Cactus Air Force" has been strengthened by 5 Marine Corps Aviation Squadrons, 4 Naval Aviation Squadrons and 1 Army Aviation Squadron, and the number of aircraft has reached more than 200.

As a result, the U.S. ground troops in Guadalcanal have reached 5 people, with sufficient supplies and strong morale.

At the end of December 1942, Yamamoto 12 was forced to issue an order for the entire army to retreat, and began to focus on operating the "absolute defense circle".

The so-called "absolute defensive circle" is an arc-shaped defensive circle starting from Taiwan Island in the west, reaching Okinawa Island in the middle, and reaching Guam and Midway Island in the east.The fundamental purpose is to prevent the Americans from attacking the mainland of the "big" Japanese Empire.

It is worth mentioning that the 18th Task Force under the command of Major General Giffen has 3 heavy cruisers, 3 light cruisers and 6 destroyers, which are responsible for covering the sea transportation of the receiving troops.

In the process, there was a big defeat that even Commander Nimitz thought was unbelievable.

After completing the cover mission, the 18 heavy cruisers of Major General Giffen's 3th Task Force were on the right, the 3 light cruisers were on the left to form a double column, and the 6 destroyers opened the way in front with umbrella arrows.

There are no defensive ships behind and on both sides of this formation, which is a formation for the audience to watch.It seems very majestic, but in fact it is the rhythm of doing death.

Once this kind of marching queue encounters an enemy situation, it can neither quickly switch to a combat state to launch an effective attack, nor is it suitable for air defense operations.

The actual situation is that the little devil submarine is really not a vegetarian, and soon discovered this self-defeating fleet, and then reported the news to Yamamoto 56.

The Battle of Guadalcanal was frustrated, and Yamamoto 56 was already very angry.After receiving the news, he ordered twelve torpedo planes to attack without the slightest hesitation.

As the saying goes: As long as you don't die, you won't die.

At dusk, after the radar of this desperate fleet found a Japanese plane 60 nautical miles away, the commander, Rear Admiral Giffen, remained indifferent.Neither formation nor anti-aircraft preparations were made.

Unsurprisingly, the heavy cruiser "Chicago" was hit by two torpedoes, the engine room was flooded, and the main engine stopped.

Fortunately, it was in the middle of the night, and the little devil's plane finally couldn't see the sea target clearly and was forced to return, allowing Major General Giffen to temporarily escape.

The next morning, the "Enterprise" aircraft carrier sent 10 fighter jets to serve as air cover, and the "Louisville" cruiser towed the "Chicago" under the protection of 6 destroyers, and sailed to Espiritu Santo Island at a speed of 4 knots. .

As a result, Yamamoto 56 sent twelve torpedo planes to attack again, and the heavy cruiser "Chicago" and a destroyer were sunk.

Nimitz felt saddened and incomprehensible that the "Chicago", protected by 6 destroyers and 10 fighter jets, had been sunk.

Not to mention Admiral Nimitz, to be honest, except for Major General Giffen himself, no one really can understand why he must die.

This is the third defeat in a year in the history of the U.S. Navy after the disastrous defeat at the Battle of Savo Island in August and the defeat at the Battle of Santa Cruz at the end of October.

If there were specific historical reasons for Pearl Harbor that could not be pursued, the two sides fought a tie in the subsequent naval battle of Midway Island, but the Japanese devils won all the next three naval battles.

The reason why the Japanese devils failed in the battle around Guadalcanal was because they did not have a strategist at all from top to bottom, so they regarded the American counterattack as a short attack, which planted the root of disaster.

Tactical mistakes can be made up for; strategic mistakes will be regretted through the ages.

Bai Shujie knew some of these things through his own reconnaissance plane and the intelligence of the Papua Jewish Republic. Of course, some of them didn't know, and he never thought about knowing.

However, Bai Shujie asked the Papua Jewish Republican Army to make a sudden move in order to avoid the tragedy of the little devils in history, so that Yamamoto 56 and Hyakutake Haruki would not get entangled in the Bismarck Sea, and immediately retreated in a big stride, saving their strength and using it on the front lines of Guam and Iwo Jima , to create even greater disasters for the American devils.

The little devil deserves to die, but he should also die in a suitable place.

According to the inherent history, the little devil killed thousands of people in the battle of the Bismarck Sea, and did not play a role at all. Bai Shujie was very dissatisfied with this result.

The little devils killed thousands of people, and the American devils killed at least hundreds or thousands of people. This is Bai Shujie's planned plan.

Because Bai Shujie allowed the Papua Jewish Republican Army to intervene, after Yamamoto 56 and Hyakutake Haruki lost in Guadalcanal, they simply retreated 2500 kilometers north in one breath, and retreated to the front line of Palau Islands, Colonia, and Guam. Only a submarine squadron is kept in the Marshall Islands to the south, mainly to monitor the actions of the US military.

The Palau Islands have always been the location of Ozawa Jisaburo's Third Fleet. His mission is to monitor Bai Shujie's Liu Zhiliang Third Division, Jin Bikuan Second Fleet, and Qin Huaian's White Shark submarine formation in Davao, so he has not moved.

After Yamamoto stepped back and retreated, the Joint Fleet Command was placed in the Marshall Islands, 3000 kilometers east of the Palau Islands, and controlled the front line of Wake Island in the north.

Haruki Hyakutake's No.17 Army retreated directly to Guam, received 7000 additional troops from the island, and made every effort to defend the front lines of Guam, Tinian Island, and Pagan Island.

Zhang Nianzu's high-altitude reconnaissance plane had already discovered the large-scale retreat of the little devils. In particular, Lieutenant General Hyakutake Haruki did not continue to be confused and was able to retreat to Guam immediately after losing a wing. Bai Shujie expressed his appreciation.

In this way, it is impossible for the American devils to knock on the southern gate of the Japanese devils without paying tens of thousands of people.

In addition, Yamamoto 56 deployed defenses in the Marshall Islands, which is what Bai Shujie was most satisfied with, because the Palau Islands, which was attached to his lips, were isolated.

Jisaburo Ozawa, the guy who knows the most about aircraft carriers among the little Japanese devils, Bai Shujie's little calculation in his heart, has been crackled so many times.

Finally, there was a situation where Ozawa Jisaburo went deep alone, and there was nothing better than this.

After Nayun Zhongyi was killed by himself, Bai Shujie's reconnaissance plane paid the most attention to Ozawa Jisaburo.

He took over Nagumo Chuichi as the commander of the Little Devil's Third Aviation Squadron, and he was the guy who threatened the Philippines the most.

Because there are five aircraft carriers directly under the Third Fleet, and in order to suppress the "China Devil" Bai Shujie in the base camp of the little devil, another three ships were placed under the unified command of Ozawa Jisaburo.

Ruihe, Xianghe, and Ruifeng, these three aircraft carriers, represent the highest level of little devils, and Bai Shujie is quite satisfied.

Bai Shujie is not interested in the outdated Ryujo and Hiryu, or the refitted cruise ship Falcon Eagle.

What Bai Shujie is concerned about is, what will the Chicheng, which was beaten into an empty shell by him last time, look like after the third modernization?

It was precisely because he knew the main battleships under Ozawa Jisaburo that Bai Shujie ordered Liu Zhiliang's third division, Jin Bikuan's second fleet, and Qin Huai'an's white shark submarine formation to form a huge group, all stationed in Yuda. Wo is Jisaburo Ozawa who is closely monitoring the east side.

It can only be surveillance, and you must not rush forward. Ozawa Jisaburo has eight aircraft carriers under his command, which is definitely not that easy to deal with.

Before he successfully developed the last secret weapon, Bai Shujie didn't dare to act rashly, so he ordered the brothers below to start being ostriches again, and absolutely not allowed to take the lead casually.

Right now, he is most concerned about the progress of his secret weapons. As for other things, Bai Shujie feels that they have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to pay attention to them at all.

However, the more things Bai Shujie doesn't want to pay attention to, the more people must come and have a word with him.

If you don't want to take the initiative to know, others will come to tell you. Now Bai Shujie doesn't want to know.

On January 1943, 1, a person came from Australia suddenly, and then briefly reported the battle situation in the previous six months, and expressed his gratitude to Bai Shujie for sending a helicopter to support the battle in time, Bai Shujie couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb.

This person is MacArthur's chief of staff, Major General Suthers, a sexually impotent person and a homosexual lover.

Bai Shujie was very puzzled when he received the telegram from Chen Jie to MacArthur requesting an interview.

Now that the Southwest Pacific battle is in full swing, Yamamoto 56 and Hyakutake Haruyoshi clearly took the initiative to retreat, and they did not hurt their bones. This is not a good thing for the Americans.

MacArthur didn't think of a way to deal with the little Japanese devils, but he still had leisure time, and sent his chief of staff to visit him. What on earth did the Americans want to do?

Regardless of whether Bai Shujie can figure it out, the telegram has already been sent anyway, and the plane has already taken off, so there is no reason to shirk it.

Besides, now the two can be regarded as comrades-in-arms in the same trench, even if they occasionally shot each other blackly behind the back and inserted knives, at least they should have a good face.

After Bai Shujie thought about all the possibilities, he finally agreed with Chen Jie to accompany Major General Arthurs to Longcheng City to see what the Americans were up to.

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
