Chapter 76 The first landing operation

Boom......... A loud bang exploded on a turret near Roosevelt. He was just fighting back. He kept firing shells on the sea and then fell into a sea of ​​fire. Then a loud bang. The fire ignited the ammunition depot not far away. Another loud bang. Amid the screams of the US soldiers on the fort, the turret disappeared in an instant. In just a moment, only the cannon burned due to the fire was left on the fort.

After the explosion, the fort was no longer sounded except for the fire rolling in the wind. It seemed that no one in the U.S. soldiers in the fort were survived.

Roosevelt slowly got up from the ground. The explosion just now was too close to the location of m. The huge explosion directly caused the impact of the plug where m was located, and the dust fell. A huge crack appeared at the top of the plug, and the stones of the fist fell from time to time.

Fortunately, a guard beside Roosevelt was smart. Seeing the explosion sounded, he immediately rushed up and protected Roosevelt tightly under him. Roosevelt was fine because of this. However, the guard was smashed into his head with a stone.

After Roosevelt got up from the ground, he patted the dust on his body and spit out the dust on his mouth. He looked extremely embarrassed. Although he was embarrassed, Roosevelt was not hurt at all. He picked up the telescope and kept paying close attention to the battle situation on the sea. He burst into excitement in his eyes.

Even though he looked embarrassed, Roosevelt kept a smile on his lips. While paying close attention to the fierce battle on the sea, he issued an order to attack the Chinese Pacific Fleet. At this time, the two sides had been fighting fiercely for more than two hours. However, the Chinese Pacific Fleet did not advance under the powerful artillery of the San Francisco coastal defense position. Instead, many warships were caught fire, and the formation began to become a little chaotic.

Although there were also fire smoke everywhere on the San Francisco coastal defense positions, several heavy XRB turrets turned into ruins under the fierce artillery fire of the Chinese Pacific Fleet, however, this loss was a loss for the US military on the shore. Although it was a loss, it did not affect the combat effectiveness. The sound of artillery was rumbling, and the fighting rhythm was not chaotic at all. It actually suppressed the fierce attack of the Chinese Pacific Fleet.

This is also why Roosevelt was already dirty and messy, but his face was always filled with a calm smile. After observing, it took less than half an hour to wait, under the fierce artillery fire of the San Francisco coast defense position, the Chinese Pacific Fleet must not last long, and in the end they could only return in disgrace and retreat in disappointment.

Roosevelt felt that his adhering to the war avoidance strategy was slowly working. It won’t take long for the Chinese Pacific Fleet to be dragged down under this tactic.

Although some senior US military generals raised their own questions when formulating this strategy. If they really stick to San Francisco in this way and do not fight against the enemy with fleets, the Chinese Pacific Fleet is likely to abandon their plans to capture San Francisco and instead attack Los Angeles or its M-coast cities in the United States, land on ashore from elsewhere, and attack the United States mainland.

At that time, Roosevelt smiled confidently and explained to the senior US military generals.

wqzr is aware of the strategic objectives of the Chinese Pacific Fleet. The reason why the Chinese Pacific Fleet besieged San Francisco was not to land from San Francisco, but to wipe out the US North Atlantic Fleet. If it fails to wipe out the US North Atlantic Fleet, no matter where China chooses to land from the west coast of the United States, the sea supply line will be striking the US North Atlantic Fleet.

After all, the Chinese Pacific Fleet went to the ocean to fight, basically wqzr spanning the entire Pacific Ocean, and supporting China in this war was the thousands of transport ships. Only by transporting the war's military supplies through a large number of transport ships can we support China in this war.

Therefore, ensuring the smooth maritime supply line is the key to the victory or defeat of this battle. It is precisely because the Chinese maritime transportation line is too long, so Tang Jian absolutely does not allow any mistakes. If the US North Atlantic Fleet still exists, then on such a long and vast sea surface, the Chinese maritime transportation line will be fatally threatened. Even if the Chinese Pacific Fleet is escorted, on this vast ocean of tens of thousands of miles, once the US North Atlantic Fleet uses the vast ocean as the battlefield to conduct guerrilla warfare, how many Chinese Pacific Fleet can save?

Moreover, logging in from San Francisco into the United States is an extremely unwise choice. If www.jtxsk.com would never use San Francisco as the landing location. If you land from San Francisco, if you want www.jtxsk.com, you would never choose to use San Francisco as the final landing location for attacking the United States. This is why Roosevelt was fearless and used San Francisco as the defensive position, and confidently only www.jtxsk.com. The final goal of www.jtxsk.com is to log in to www.jtxsk.com. Which login site will Tang Jian choose? Even Roosevelt cannot guess.

In fact, what Roosevelt speculated was basically the same as what Tang Jian thought. Tang Jian besieged San Francisco this time, and the ultimate goal was to www.jtxsk.com and the plan failed to sneak into the San Francisco Port. Ye Zugui gave Tang Jian the most pre-war information.

Tang Jian opened his eyes and frowned slightly: There were several underwater fences? This Roosevelt was indeed a cunning man. He had arranged such a perfect defense in such a short time?

In fact, Tang Jian led a large army to the gate of San Francisco this time, in order to break through into San Francisco and wipe out the US North Atlantic Fleet. When he came to the waters near San Francisco, he saw that the dense mines made people feel numb and numb, Tang Jian changed it to the second combat plan, making the east and west attack, and used the main force of the Chinese Pacific Fleet to attract the US military's security position artillery in San Francisco, so that Chu Zhaoliang led the submarine to attack the port of San Francisco.

Tang Jian didn't expect that Roosevelt actually laid a fence under the waterway covered with mines. In this way, the water surface and underwater attacks would not be enough to threaten San Francisco. Tang Jian had to look up to Roosevelt. This Roosevelt was really difficult. He actually made these preparations before the Battle of Midway.

Cheng Biguang took a step forward and said: President, the Pacific Fleet had already suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Midway, and its combat effectiveness was greatly weakened. The firepower of the San Francisco coastal defense position was strong. We have been bombarding for so long, not only did we not achieve any results, but the losses were intensified. It was not a solution to continue to consume this.

Of course, Tang Jian knew this. Since the first two sets of tactics were not successful, he could only use the last m and he was least willing to use the tactics.

Immediately ordered the Chinese carrier-based aircraft to take off and continue to bomb San Francisco. But be careful, the last air strike, the air force suffered a significant loss under San Francisco air defense firepower. This time Roosevelt was ready early, so this time, the San Francisco air defense firepower will only be more powerful than the last time Tang Jian ordered

The USS China aircraft carrier is the first generation aircraft carrier in China. It is an experimental warship, so the research on aircraft carriers is not mature enough. In addition, it is transformed from the original dreadnought, so the number of carrier-based aircraft on the USS China is not large, and at most it can be equipped with fifteen aircraft.

It’s not that Tang Jian was unwilling to dispatch multiple aircraft from the air bases of Pearl Harbor and Midway to participate in this San Francisco battle. Although the Chinese aircraft had entered the third generation model at this time, due to technological restrictions and limited attack radius, if it took off from Pearl Harbor, and the weight of the bomb on the aircraft, the fuel was not enough for a round trip, so the Chinese aircraft could not carry out long-range bombing. This is why Tang Jian launched an attack when he led the US North Atlantic Fleet to the waters near Midway.

Not long after, in the waters behind the Chinese Pacific Fleet, the USS China aircraft carrier reached its highest value and met the takeoff conditions, fifteen aircraft flew up one after another. After turning around at a low altitude, they immediately formed an attack formation and flew upwards towards the sky above San Francisco.

This time Roosevelt was well prepared. Before the attacking formation of the Chinese Air Force had completely flew over San Francisco, anti-aircraft guns on air defense positions in various parts of San Francisco immediately roared, and a tight line of defense was formed in the air after a moment.

After the Chinese Air Force was carelessly damaged during the last air strike, it also gained some understanding of San Francisco's air defense firepower. Therefore, this attack formation composed of fifteen aircraft was flying above safe altitude from the beginning. Even if San Francisco's air defense firepower was extremely fierce, it did not cause much obstacles to the Chinese Air Force being prepared.

So, the air strikes in San Francisco began again

But the air strike effect was really not ideal. The flight altitude was too high, which greatly reduced the accuracy of bomb drops in the Air Force. With the fierce anti-aircraft artillery bombardment, the bombing range of the Chinese Air Force was basically just outside the city of San Francisco. Even though the air strike lasted for more than an hour, the degree of damage to San Francisco was indeed a bit unsatisfactory. Basically, the explosion sounded loudly, but the effect was very small.

At this time, Roosevelt was not satisfied with the strong air defense firepower, but instead looked solemn. This air strike was a bit strange. With the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Air Force, even if the air defense firepower in San Francisco was enhanced, the Chinese Air Force would do its best to say that the damage to San Francisco was definitely not a little bit.

Roosevelt turned around and asked Marshall: Do you see if there is any abnormality in the Chinese Pacific Fleet?

Marshall observed for a long time and said: I always feel that the main battleships of the Chinese Pacific Fleet seem to be a little less. Look, the number of M battleships in the Chinese Pacific Fleet on the sea is much smaller than the last time. This time, the Chinese Pacific Fleet has been besieged by San Francisco. It seems that the Chinese Pacific Fleet did not use all its strength.

Do you think so too? Roosevelt was surprised. This was very close to speculation. From the beginning of the Chinese Pacific Fleet's shelling of San Francisco, Roosevelt felt something was slightly wrong, but he couldn't think of something wrong for a while. Now after Marshall's reminder, Roosevelt immediately realized that the Chinese Pacific Fleet was not full of its own, and the ms still retained many warships.

A trace of ominous feeling suddenly arose in Roosevelt's heart. Tang Jian was still splitting his troops out in such a heavy loss to weaken his own strength to attack San Francisco? There is only one possibility. Could it be that Tang Jian has other actions?

His Excellency Minister, he found a large number of Chinese troop transport ships on the sea in Salinas City, southeast of San Francisco, and suddenly, a US Navy staff member hurried to the frontier command center where Roosevelt was located, and said anxiously.

What's going on? A cold light flashed in Roosevelt's eyes. This is not good news. Salinas is less than 100 kilometers away from San Francisco. It is definitely not a coincidence that it finds a Chinese troop ship so close to San Francisco.

Speak slowly Roosevelt said

Yes, His Excellency Minister, Colonel Mos, the commander of Salinas City, sent a telegram saying that a large number of Chinese troop transport ships were found on the sea, and a Chinese fleet consisting of a Fearless Class battleship. The large number of troop transport ships occupied a large area of ​​sea. If the ship was full, it was estimated that more than 10,000 naval staff explained

The ship carrying more than 10,000 people appeared in Salinas City under an escort of a fleet. Their purpose was already very obvious. The ms were preparing to land from the capture of Salinas City and from there.

Roosevelt took the military map and deduced it on it. In the end, Roosevelt was already full of horror. Roosevelt said: Tang Jian was preparing to land from Salinas City, and then detoured to the rear of San Francisco, preparing to capture San Francisco by land.

Our main defensive positions are all placed in San Francisco, and most of the troops are concentrated here. There are only three thousand soldiers stationed in Salinas City. Marshall took a breath.

Roosevelt immediately ordered: Immediately dispatch 8,000 army soldiers from San Francisco to rush to Salinas City, so that the officers and soldiers in the city must hold on until reinforcements arrive. Once Salinas is lost, San Francisco will be attacked from land and land, and the situation will be extremely unfavorable to Roosevelt.

At this time, Roosevelt suddenly remembered that this tactic was the tactic used when Japan landed from Rongcheng in the Sino-Japanese War in 1894-1895, and went around to the rear of Weihaiwei, and joined the Japanese joint fleet to attack and conceal the Zhongbeiyang Fleet on the Weihaiwei Port?
