Chapter 1686 The Island Country Stands Aside (Plus More)

The scene is quite spectacular. On the dark and calm island, suddenly, a huge fireball appeared out of thin air. When this fireball appeared, the night turned into day, and the strong light was enough to temporarily blind people.

This fireball spreads out rapidly, crushing everything wherever it goes.

On the way, the fighter planes were squeezed into pieces at the moment of contact with the fireball, and then the fuel inside was also added to burn, turning into new fireballs one by one.

The air waves spread outward, and when they reached the sea, stormy waves quickly erupted on the sea surface. The waves were dozens of meters high, and all the ships docked at the port were overturned.

The fireball occupied the sky over the entire island almost instantly, a black mushroom cloud rose high, the sea water was vaporized, and white smoke came out.

No one could survive such an attack. When the explosion sounded at the first moment, Pheasant Fifty-six and the pilots in front, surrounded by the mist of the explosion, almost instantly turned into a thousand-degree high temperature. Ashes, the entire plane also joined the burn.

Then, the powerful shock wave crushed everything on the ground. Other planes, personnel, and those hiding in the building could not survive. When the shock wave passed, the entire island was wiped out.

At this time, in the group of B-29 bombers returning home in the sky, some people witnessed the huge fireball behind, as if burning on the ocean, and their hearts were also filled with incomparable excitement. This bombing, finally It worked!

Midway Island, after the island nation tried to occupy it in vain, used it as an unsinkable aircraft carrier to control the entire Pacific Ocean and blocked the U.S. Navy in the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean. In this way, the island nation could easily go south to Southeast Asia and gain the benefits of the entire Southeast Asia.

The islanders almost succeeded. After they landed on Midway, they built a base here and stationed fighter planes. They struggled for more than a month, which brought huge pressure to the US Navy, so that they even attacked the transportation of islanders. The boat is struggling.

Now, with the explosion of the bomb, Midway Island has finally been wiped out, and no defenders of the island country can survive. After dawn, the American soldiers will pedal here again.

This way of capturing the island is quite barbaric and quite effective.

The bombing in the Pacific seems to be just a small action, but it has brought huge gains to the United States. From then on, the United States no longer has to worry about threats in the Pacific.

Almost all the capital ships of the island nation's navy have been lost. Now, even the base on Midway Island has been lost. The balance of war is tilted toward the United States!

In the White House, the high-level American leaders who have been waiting for this are all very excited after receiving this news.

"By blowing up Midway, we don't have to take the islanders seriously anymore. Although we can't bomb the mainland on a large scale, we can also defend the Pacific Ocean. Now, our navy can fully deal with the German threat." Nimitz's voice is high.

As a general guarding the Pacific Ocean, Nimitz was under great pressure, especially after the loss of Midway, Nimitz hardly slept well, and now, finally, the threat of the island nation disappeared.

"Yes, the islanders no longer have the means to control the ocean. We can temporarily leave the island countries to deal with the German threat." Marshall also came to a conclusion.

In the past, the islanders were the most powerful. There were several attacking aircraft carriers, which were enough to launch a raid, such as Pearl Harbor. However, after several naval battles, all the islanders' aircraft carriers sank, and the rest were escort aircraft carriers. Southeast Asia is swaying and swaying, so forget it. If you say that you come to the Pacific to fight the United States, it is absolutely nonsense.

Midway Island, the turning point of the Pacific War, the new weapons, the promotion of the war is too great!

"However, we can't let the island country go its own way." Arnold said: "If we are based in China, we can fly to the island country to bomb. Moreover, we have also begun to develop aerial refueling technology. Our B-29 passes through the air. After refueling, you can meet the round-trip from Hawaii to the mainland of the island country.”

In the past, bombing the mainland of the island country was a very difficult task. It was necessary to use an aircraft carrier to carry the B-25. It was taking off in the waters near the island country. Once discovered by the huge fleet of the island country, it had to take off early.

At that time, how did the U.S. Navy survive, and actually had to go around the island country.

Now, finally no need.

The island nation's navy was destroyed by most of its elite in naval battles, but the U.S. Navy has grown.

Now, the U.S. Navy no longer regards the navy of the island nation as an enemy, and the aviation force can go to trouble the island nation at any time.

The B-29 has a fairly long range and can take off from the Huaxia theater, and, on the other hand, they have also developed aerial refueling technology, where one B-29 acts as an aerial refueling aircraft to refuel another B-29, In this way, the range of the B-29 can be greatly extended and intercontinental flight can be realized!

Although it was prepared for the bombing of mainland Europe, it is not bad to bring it in advance so that the islanders can try it.

Roosevelt nodded: "Our main threat is still Germany. Our greatest advantage is the sea. Germany will not rely on armored troops to win like on the European continent. As long as we crippled the German naval power, we can never fail."

Just like now, if the navy of the island country is crippled, the island country will lose its combat effectiveness. If the German navy is also crippled, the Germans' cross-sea landing is just a dream.

Roosevelt was confident that although the east coast of the United States had suffered a serious blow, as long as the plan for the ice aircraft carrier can be steadily advanced and the results come to fruition as soon as possible, there is hope for victory on his own side!

"Our raid in the direction of Europe, I don't know what happened?" Roosevelt looked at the map on the wall. The attack on Midway was just a small-scale bombing, bombing the shipyards along the European coast and destroying the European shipbuilding industry. , is what Roosevelt most looked forward to.

"No news yet," Arnold said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an assistant holding a telegram and hurried over: "Emergency information, the Greenland base has suffered a sudden German air attack and suffered heavy losses."

In an instant, everyone froze.

This is the case every time. In order to bomb Europe, we secretly deployed bombers in Greenland. Just after they were deployed, they were attacked by the Germans?

How could there be such a coincidence, it must be another omission in the intelligence system!
