Chapter 183 : Another battle against the Mariana Islands
Chapter 183: Another Battle on the Mariana Islands (1)
Luo Zhuoying was surprised. She had never seen him lose his temper like this before. Hearing that reporters were going to be called to protest, he asked curiously: "Who are you protesting against?"
"You will understand!" Meng Da did not disclose it in advance and said unceremoniously: "Let's go with me to the hotel to meet the reporter."
At the press conference, all reporters stationed in Hong Kong and Shanghai reporters were hurriedly picked up by planes and vehicles. In the large conference room, Meng Da walked up to the rostrum alone. He looked at the radio reporters and newspaper reporters below.
He said politely: "Please come, I have very important news to announce!
The War of Resistance is about to be won, but the country is about to be in chaos again. This is an internal fight between brothers, so our civilian army will not get involved. However, I don’t want to see anyone resorting to foreign forces, let alone let the people’s blood and sweat go to waste.
The money is exchanged for guns and bullets and then shot into their bodies!
The people's army is a force that protects the home and the people, a force that safeguards national interests, and a force that ensures that foreign enemies will not invade again. Once my bottom line is provoked, I will not hesitate to take action. Now I declare: Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian,
No armed forces are allowed to enter the area south of Jiujiang, and all tax revenue will be used to appease the victims who have fled the war!"
The reporters all applauded and were applauded by Meng Da's move. He did not allow chaos here, purely out of consideration for the people. A reporter stood up and asked: "Commander Meng, your militia troops will occupy these areas."
Place?"
"No! Each province and every city has its own security forces, and they are capable of maintaining public order."
"What if a war breaks out?"
"I will send troops to annihilate the troublemakers on the spot!"
"Can you ensure that tax revenue will not be used for war? Can you allow local governments to arrange for people to flee?"
"Yes! From today on, whoever dares to take away a penny from here, I will make him pay ten times the interest." Meng Da answered firmly and decisively without hesitation.
"If the government buys weapons from abroad, can you stop it?"
"Hahahaha, I have blocked everything in the sky and underground. Any means of transportation will be blocked by me from the country and territorial waters. Please reporters to announce to the outside world that Hong Kong supports the arrival of peace lovers, and those who do not want to fight civil war can get it here.
Way out!”
At the press conference, Meng Da explained every reporter's question without getting tired of it. The reception lasted for four hours, and everyone was shocked by the fearless spirit of the young people. They were all whispering among themselves, discussing the topic of any questions, and when they waited
This lively reception ended when there were no more questions to ask.
Back home, Luo Zhuoying couldn't help but cursed: "You bastard, I'm afraid you're going to make the old man vomit blood this time!"
"Hahahaha." Meng Da laughed heartily, picked up the tea cup and took a sip and said, "I'm afraid his deal with the people of country M is over."
The overwhelming propaganda on the radio and newspapers suddenly attracted everyone's attention and discussion. Anti-war demonstrations broke out in various places, supporting all the decisions of the People's Army. In the Nanjing Presidential Palace, Chiang Kai-shek was furious and cursed at his subordinates: "It's so secret.
The news will be leaked, can we still get weapons from the people of country M?"
"Not only do we lack weapons, I'm afraid the U.S. military's air force stationed at coastal airports will also come to nothing. His move was so powerful that we had to surrender." He Yingqin shook his head and smiled bitterly. How can we fight without weapons?
"Principal, the morale of the military is currently unstable. Once a war breaks out, it will be very disadvantageous!" Chen Cheng couldn't laugh or cry. Meng Da used propaganda tools to achieve unimaginable consequences.
When the Republic of China government was at a loss, Meng Da met with Ambassador Kerry of Country M. He said coldly: "Mr. Kerry, must Country M interfere in the internal affairs of other countries?"
"No, no, we won't interfere." Kerry replied with a frown.
"Do you know how many troops I have? Seven hundred thousand! If I want to trade arms, I have more advantages than you. I don't want our citizens to die in the war, and you don't want the people of Country M to die in the war, right?" Meng Da
The unceremonious language was simply full of the smell of gunpowder. Kerry was shocked. If Mengda sold the weapons to R himself, the consequences would be very terrible!
"I will convey your wishes to President Roosevelt and ask you not to sell weapons to the Japanese."
"This way we can be friends. Well, if you can abide by our agreement, I will help you take down the Mariana Islands!"
"Really?" Kerry was shocked. The Mariana Islands were too difficult to fight and they had already lost a Pacific Fleet.
"Really! However, I will not tell anyone when I will send troops. A decisive blow must be made to defeat the Japanese defense. Tell President Roosevelt that we can continue to do business, but I will firmly oppose supporting our domestic war.
!”
Roosevelt was also reading the comments published by the National M newspaper. While he and Marshall were talking in a low voice, the staff around him sent Kerry's telegram. Marshall's expression changed before he finished reading it, and he said in surprise:
"Mr. Roosevelt, we can no longer interfere in matters in mainland China!"
"This is a terrible opponent! We are very passive, and the country will also protest against our decision-making." Roosevelt said sadly, for the benefit of the people of country M, he would agree to make a deal with the Republic of China government. Unexpectedly, now
It became like this!
"Kerry mentioned in the telegram that the civilian army can help us take the Mariana Islands."
"Oh?" Roosevelt raised his head in surprise: "What is his purpose for doing this?"
“Fascinating!”
"No, we can't hand over the Mariana Islands to him! Let the Ministry of National Defense quickly formulate a combat plan and be sure to capture this difficult fortress of the Mariana Islands!"
The Mariana Islands are a volcanic archipelago that runs north to south and stretches for 425 nautical miles. It is composed of nearly a hundred islands. There are sixteen larger volcanic islands. From north to south, there are mainly Saipan, the second largest island, and the third largest island.
The three major islands are Tinian, Rota and the largest island Guam.
Roosevelt was indeed an outstanding politician and quickly found the answer from the map. Marshall was shocked and asked: "What if Meng Da wants to send troops?"
"To seize the opportunity, we must take action in advance. The Mariana Islands are like the conduit for our travel in the Pacific. Once occupied by it, it will be like a chokehold. The Ministry of National Defense must make a combat plan and the troops must be dispatched in advance." Ross
Fu was restless. He knew that this was a fierce competition. Whoever occupied it first would have the upper hand. Meng Da would not attack the US troops after they occupied it.
Marshall agreed, said goodbye to the president and walked outside.
In Port
Secretly laughing. The ambassadors from various countries have their own agendas and are unwilling to express their feelings.
Kerry was confused. Can such weapons and equipment win a battle on an island surrounded by sea? Is Mengda going crazy again? He said to Luo Zhuoying in a sinister tone: "General Luo, can the infantry defeat the air force and navy?"
"Hahahaha, Commander Meng once scared off hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops from our land without firing a single shot. He also once sent 20,000 people to make hundreds of thousands of S-Union troops retreat without a fight. He can do any miracle.
It happened, I have no doubt about it!" Luo Zhuoying praised his little brother heroically, feeling very proud in his heart.
Kerry shook his head: "I don't believe it would be difficult for such a force to reach the Mariana Islands, let alone fight."
"Really?" Mengda came over and said to Kerry: "I heard that your country M has begun to send troops to attack the Mariana Islands. Okay, I will let you go and fight first. My troops will stay in the Philippine Sea and wait.
Here. If you can't attack them, I'm going to occupy the Mariana Islands."
Will this be a fair competition? Does he have a conspiracy? Kerry kept trying to figure it out in his mind, but he couldn't find any flaws. Mengda said politely: "War is a very simple matter, win or win.
Or lose. All this is determined by many factors such as the level of the commander, weapons and equipment, and the quality of the soldiers.
Is the aircraft carrier very powerful? No! In my eyes, it is not as good as my transport ship! Mr. Ambassador, don’t believe it? No matter how big a ship is, it is still a ship, and its carrying capacity will always be limited. It is precisely because you have made the aircraft carrier complicated that this
Not as good as my transport ship. Think about it, my merchant ship can carry tens of thousands of soldiers. If everyone has a weapon in hand, how powerful it is!"
Kerry shook his head: "The aircraft carrier is a flying platform in the sea."
"Hahahaha, flying in the sea? Flying in the sea is actually going to die! You see, each of my soldiers has a long-barrel weapon, which is specially designed to deal with aircraft. As long as you fly near me, I will definitely beat you up.
Come down! Without planes, will the aircraft carrier still be useful?"
Mengda's fallacies made Kerry unable to find anything to say to counterattack. The United Nations Ambassador exclaimed: "This kind of weapon has appeared in the hands of the D army!"
"Really? You are right, this was developed by the D Army. After I upgraded it again, it is better than theirs!" Meng Da didn't blush and was not surprised, and he could find a suitable reason easily.
"Very powerful?" Kerry asked hurriedly to S-Union Ambassador Molotov.
"It can hit our tanks, aircraft and fortifications."
Everyone no longer dared to underestimate this force and silently watched them sailing on the sea. Meng Da and a group of reporters said goodbye to the ambassadors and gentlemen and walked towards a waiting cargo ship. The governor went out in person, and the ambassador of country m
Kerry kept praying in his heart: "God, bless our warriors of Country M to take over the Mariana Islands as soon as possible."
The Mariana Islands have become the main battlefield in the Pacific, and all the focus of the world is focused here. Especially Mengda, who led reporters from various countries, is clearly telling everyone: "The Mariana Islands are mine, and no one can take them away!"
"
In country M, Marshall is reporting on the campaign plan. After suffering repeated blows, military officials in M decided that they could not attack in batches, but that all aircraft should fly together to attack, and all warships should charge together to send the army troops to the island. Although this is
It's a stupid method, but it may be the most effective at the moment.
Roosevelt nodded feebly, sighed and said: "Hong Kong is building momentum, and we have no way out. Let's give the order to start taking action!"
"yes!"
The M people went crazy and gathered almost all their aircraft carriers together. They wanted to surround the Mariana Islands and attack together to take down this difficult bone. By the time the Hong Kong fleet arrived, the air battle had already begun. All reporters
The camera was raised high, taking pictures of this rare air battle seriously.
"Awesome, thousands of bombers and fighter jets went out together. This is probably the largest air battle in the history of the world!" Meng Da was smiling, looking at the busy reporters from the corner of his eyes: "Fools, you are helping me.
, to smear the faces of people from country M."
"Pfft!" Xia Ying snickered, Meng Da was arrogant again.
The island began to fight back, and dense artillery fire was continuously fired to form an indestructible barrage. Occasionally, fire dragons flew out of the barrage and jumped into the sky. The planes continued to impact downwards, without waiting.
As it approached the island, it began to explode and burst into flames, falling into the ocean.
Meng Da watched, laughing and joking with the reporters: "This style of play is called Phalanx goalkeeping. If you pass through several defenses, you will eventually fall into their hands."
"Commander Meng seems to be familiar with this kind of tactics?" a reporter from Country M asked maliciously.
"Of course they are familiar, because they are my apprentices!"
