Chapter 793, America will never surrender
1 Fifty Chapters, America Will Never Surrender
On February 27, 100, after being hit by more than [-] Soviet nuclear bombs, and the entire country was devastated, the United States of America, which had been beaten into a dying state, finally raised its last bit of strength and launched the A dying struggle full of tragic colors.
——32 B-36 "Peacemaker" ultra-long-range bombers, with [-] atomic bombs and a large number of gas bombs and bacterial bombs, flew from the civilian airport of the capital HSD with the accompaniment of the military band and the president's personal see-off Take off and embark on the last desperate journey to Europe.
Unlike the previous few transoceanic sneak attacks that were limited to fuel consumption and voyage, and only circled the western edge of the European continent, the target of their nuclear explosion this time was the mainland of the Soviet Union tens of thousands of kilometers away-so, even if the mission can be successfully completed, The pilots who went out are also doomed not to come back.
However, it has to be said that if any once great country is really at the critical point of life and death, it can always gather a group of warriors who are willing to sacrifice their lives or even be buried for the country.Especially in the United States, which is famous for its cowboy and Puritan culture, there has never been a shortage of men who are willing to scatter their blood. After General Arnold ordered the recruitment of volunteers, more than 1000 American pilots voluntarily signed up immediately. After some screening, the crew members of the expedition to the Soviet Union were selected, and then in a sad atmosphere, they embarked on a journey that would never return.
At the same time, another eleven B-36 "Peacemaker" ultra-long-range bombers were also ready at a secret air force base in Oregon on the west coast of the United States, with three atomic bombs, gas bombs, bacterial bombs and conventional The high-explosive aerial bombs are also prepared to launch a one-way air expedition on the premise that they will never return, across the vast Pacific Ocean, to attack Vladivostok, the largest city in the Soviet Far East.
Since there are still many patriotic pilots who volunteered to participate in the suicide one-way expedition, there are no more B-36 "Peacemaker" ultra-long-range bombers capable of carrying out the mission (there are still fifteen B-36 "Peacemaker" ultra-long-range bombers that can carry out the mission. The "Founder" was transformed into a gunship, but it was too late to change it back, and it was unable to carry out the bombing mission).So in addition to this batch of B-36 "Peacemaker" ultra-long-range bombers, Admiral Arnold also pulled out a batch of the remaining B-29 "Super Sky Fortress", hung up bombs and followed the B-36 nuclear strike Combat long-range bombers embarked on an expedition to the Soviet Union—anyway, the maximum ceiling height of the B-29 "Super Sky Fortress" is not enough. Type Tu-9000 "Flying Bear".Instead of letting these sky behemoths that cost countless resources to be destroyed one after another in the day after day of nuclear explosions, or slowly rust in the ground hangar, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity and finally Use your spare heat...
In this way, the last batch of warriors of the U.S. Strategic Air Force spread their wings and took off with the belief that they must die, and rushed to the Soviet Union on the other side of the world from the two directions of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and fought the last battle of their lives. It's not fighting anymore, it's a dying madness!
In fact, apart from the U.S. Army, which is unable to cross the sea and can do nothing, the U.S. Air Force is like this, and the U.S. Navy is even more so. Just as the warriors of the U.S. Strategic Air Force embarked on a journey that will never return, The U.S. Navy is also making its final buildup in Cuba...

Early morning hours, February 27, Caribbean Sea, Cuba, Guantanamo Naval Base
Guantanamo is a seaport city located in the southeast of Cuba, an island country in Central America. Its main income is the sugar industry, and it is as ordinary as other Central American cities.What really makes it famous in the world is the US Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, [-] kilometers south of the city.
Guantanamo Bay is one of the largest and best protected bays in the world.Horseshoe-shaped, located on the southeast coast of Cuba, divided into two parts: the inner harbor and the outer harbor. The bay is about 19 kilometers long and 9 kilometers wide, and the entrance is only 3 kilometers wide. Giant ships can come in and out freely. It is a world-renowned natural harbor.Adjacent to the Windward Strait in the east, it strangles the passage from the Atlantic Ocean to the Caribbean Sea, and its strategic location is very important.Since 1903, a part of Guantanamo Bay has been occupied by the United States as a naval base. It is the earliest military base established by the United States overseas, and it is also the main training base of the US Atlantic Fleet.After the outbreak of the anti-terrorism war in another plane, the Guantanamo Naval Base became a concentration camp for the US military to detain terrorists and suspected terrorists from all walks of life in the Middle East. It was widely criticized for prisoner abuse scandals and human rights abuses.Although a certain black president made closing Guantanamo as one of his campaign promises during his first campaign.But he has been dawdling and procrastinating until he is about to step down, and there is no sign of closing Guantanamo...
All in all, at the end of February [-] on this plane, Admiral Halsey commanded the remaining ocean-going ships of the US Atlantic Fleet, and conducted the last large-scale assembly at the Guantanamo Naval Port—the reason why he did not choose the east coast of the continental United States The reason why the fleet is assembled in the port of the United States is because the port on the east coast of the United States has unfortunately become the key nuclear explosion target of the Soviet atomic bomb. Whether it is a military port or a civilian port, it has almost been bombed.Admiral Halsey is now driven away by the mushroom cloud on the coast of his home country and has nowhere to go. He has brushed shoulders with death several times, and finally had to choose to assemble in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Accompanied by the Zeki on the warship, a ray of red gradually appeared in the pale gray eastern sky.The red glow slowly rendered the color, gradually dyeing the sky into light blue.A fiery red light cluster slowly and step by step reveals the blueness between the water and the sky. Gradually, this light cluster finally breaks through the shackles of clouds and clouds, stretches its body, radiates warmth and light wantonly, spreads the On the surface of the sea, reflecting colorful light.
And under the brilliance of the rising sun, large and small steel sea beasts suddenly appeared, with star-spangled banners waving in the wind.Among them are the majestic bridges and giant cannons of battleships, as well as the flat decks and island bridges of aircraft carriers, as well as countless small boats and merchant ships, which appear to be scattered high and low.
Standing on the island-shaped bridge of the new flagship "Valley Forge" aircraft carrier, looking at the slightly sparse shadow of the ship on the sea, Halsey the "Bull" frowned.
It has been a week since the general assembly order of the Atlantic Fleet issued by Chief of the Navy Ernest King, but the number of ships arriving at Guantanamo is far less than expected—so far, including Hal Including the "Valley Forge" aircraft carrier at the west foot, the U.S. Navy has assembled only one Montana-class battleship "Vermont", one Brooklyn-class light cruiser "Phoenix" and two Ethiopian-class cruisers at Guantanamo. Keith-class regular aircraft carriers "Valley Forge" and "Bunker Hill", a light aircraft carrier "Independence", fourteen destroyers of various types, plus five ocean-going supply ships and twelve old-fashioned coastal defense ships, as well as eight Fast tankers... Such a shabby decisive battle lineup is really tearful.
— It’s not that the U.S. Navy has been bombed to such a small number of ships, in fact, that while U.S. ports on the east coast have been bombed into radioactive ruins, and the Pacific Fleet has been stranded on the west coast by the destruction of the Panama Canal Can't make it through.However, because Halsey had urgently evacuated a considerable number of ships to remote small ports in advance, the US Atlantic Fleet under his command still retained about [-]% of its military ships.
However, although there are still ships, there are not enough manpower-in addition to evacuating ships, Chief of the Navy Ernest King did not forget to evacuate personnel, and organized most of the navy before the Soviets nuclear bombed the Norfolk naval port The personnel retreated to the countryside, and as a result, many people disappeared after the evacuation. They may have deserted, or it may be that the frequent nuclear explosions destroyed the domestic communication network, so they did not receive further instructions.In addition, at a time when the country is disintegrating, society is collapsing, and the military is out of control, many U.S. naval officers and soldiers have no longer obeyed orders and openly disobeyed orders, and the Pentagon has nothing to do about it-not to mention, even under normal circumstances, such A purely death order would certainly cause an uproar.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"...It turned out to be such an order... Admiral Jin, you are looking for a final cemetery for the Atlantic Fleet!!!"
Recalling Commander Ernest King's instructions, Admiral Halsey looked melancholy at the sunny tropical sea, and complained so sadly.
——According to the Pentagon's plan, this European expedition of the Atlantic Fleet is basically the last battle of the US Navy.Due to the tight preparation time and the lack of enemy intelligence, the pre-planned plan was very rough.To put it simply, it is to let Admiral Halsey gather all naval ships capable of long-distance sailing at the Guantanamo Bay Base in Cuba, cross the Atlantic Ocean in the shortest possible time, and then let Halsey judge by himself, or enter the Mediterranean Sea through the Strait of Gibraltar, and wait for the opportunity to follow The Soviet Red Flag Black Sea-Mediterranean Fleet fought; or went north to the Strait of Dover, entered the North Sea and even the Baltic Sea, and had a final battle with the Baltic Fleet of the Soviet Red Navy... Next, regardless of the outcome of the final battle, the remaining ships You don't have to go back to your country—you'll be bombed to death when you come back, and you can transfer to South Africa, surrender to it and hand over the ships, which is more or less adding to the Soviets.
For the above-mentioned insane battle plan, Halsey's first feeling is to seek death, and the second is to seek death-but under the current situation, it seems that there is no way to come up with a better result Come on, to be honest, no one is thinking about how to eliminate the RB yellow runts and the Soviet Bolsheviks anymore. Everyone knows that they are the ones who are eliminated, and it is already the limit to drag the Soviets to bleed a little more.
Of course, there is another opportunistic way, which is to ignore the Pentagon’s combat orders, and flee to South Africa as soon as it sails—I believe that as long as such a modern large fleet is sent for free, the South African Federation will be happy to accommodate and properly accommodate itself. The remnants of the US Navy... But the problem is that Admiral Halsey is not this kind of person. His stubbornness, backbone and patriotism will not allow him to make such a cowardly choice.
Admiral Halsey is very clear that for the United States, this war is already over. The United States has completely failed and is about to die. It is impossible to have a second result.Does the puppet navy that has perished want to keep the capital ship?It is definitely not possible, so before the country is completely subjugated, a vigorous and magnificent funeral must be arranged for these steel warships that have condensed the dreams of several generations of US Navy soldiers.
But the problem is that under the oppression of the crisis of national subjugation, today's HSD is like an ant's nest on the verge of a flood. The ships that were able to contact Halsey also learned the inside story of the attack through various channels, and further spread rumors, saying that the Pentagon wanted them to carry out a complete suicide attack and directly rushed into the port of the Soviets. To smash the open fire, if you can't smash the open fire, you will rush to the beach and run aground. When the sea fortress and the Bolshevik red head desperately...the result was blown up in a short time-although Halsey himself has decided to die for the country, but a considerable part of the navy is not moral enough Officers and soldiers, don't have the awareness of mortal danger yet!
As a result, the remaining officers and soldiers of the Atlantic Fleet launched a passive resistance to the recent assembly order that would send them to the point of no return: they either pretended that the shipboard radio was damaged and did not receive a signal; Light leaks, unable to move; some simply find ways to collude with high-level government officials, take over the private work of transferring family property to the government and consortium bosses, and take the Pentagon's order as air...
Even those who obediently obeyed the order and drove the warship to Guantanamo had many problems.The most terrible thing is that the number of sailors is still insufficient. A considerable number of ships have only half or even one-third of the staffing. Not anymore.Not to mention that there is a general shortage of pilots on every aircraft carrier.
For this reason, Admiral Halsey, who can't live without rice, can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and abandon some old ships, especially the coastal defense ships that are temporarily unused (designed for coastal defense warfare, not suitable for ocean-going warfare) Sailing), the sailors were pulled out from above to supplement the capital ship, and some veterans and pilots who had served on the ship were forced to recruit some veterans and pilots who had served on the ship at the Guantanamo base, barely filling the manpower for destroyers, cruisers, battleships and aircraft carriers.But despite this, the fleet under General Halsey, who is about to embark on a desperate voyage, is still full of problems-first of all, the transferred personnel must have a process of getting familiar with and adapting to the new ship positions, and secondly, these The quality of the rookie sailor itself is very, very worrying.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
You must know that naval athletes who manipulate ships to cut through the waves are not low-tech army cannon fodder, who can easily and quickly expand the addendum.In the era of sailing and wooden ship naval warfare, the number of merchant sailors in a country determined the country's naval heritage and expansion limit; in the era of oil and steel, the quality requirements for naval officers and soldiers in wars have been further improved.It takes at least one or two years of training to train an excellent sailor from knowing nothing to being proficient in operation.And a naval captain who is proficient in navigation and tactics cannot be cultivated in five or six years.If you want to get a really good first-class naval general, you have to have at least ten years—or why is there a saying called "a century-old navy"?
In this way, the construction period of shipyards, diesel engine factories and gun factories, as well as the training time of shipbuilding engineers and metallurgical technicians have not been considered!
Even if a country has a strong foundation and strong industrial strength enough to explode warships into the sea like dumplings, but if it didn’t have enough talent reserves before and couldn’t gather so many qualified sailors, captains and admirals, then even if there are more Warships can only rot in the port, or be reduced to the opponent's record of easily killing people-any water surface power that can dominate the ocean throughout the ages cannot be cultivated overnight.
There is no doubt that before participating in this tragic world war, as a branch of the Anglo-Saxon nation, the overlord of the seven seas, and the descendants of Mahan, the author of "Sea Power", the U.S. Navy still had sufficient talent reserves. Everything from sailors to high-end admirals.
But the problem is that since the Pearl Harbor incident broke out and the Pacific War started more than seven years ago, in front of the RB Navy combined fleet with super golden elephant leg plug-ins, the U.S. Navy has been stripped and rebuilt many times—the aircraft carrier fleet is disabled , The carrier aviation is disabled, the land-based aviation is disabled, the battle fleet is disabled, the cruiser fleet is disabled, the destroyer fleet is disabled, the submarine fleet is disabled, the Marine Corps is disabled, and the entire federal navy is basically disabled.
Although relying on the full efforts of so many shipyards in China, the replenishment of various types of warships can barely keep up, but the training of sailors, captains and professional generals cannot be kept up.As a result, the U.S. Navy is filled with more and more rookies, the quality of officers and soldiers has shown an avalanche decline, and the incidence of various accidents has risen like a rocket. Mishits, collisions, rocks, and self-explosions on the battlefield Too many to make your scalp tingle.
Even if you are lucky enough to save some experienced and high-quality sailing veterans, or train a group of naval grassroots commanders who have learned a complete course during the war, they are also given priority to those who need to confront the RB Navy Combined Fleet. U.S. Pacific Fleet.The Atlantic Fleet under Halsey, because of the relatively few combat missions, has been a situation of various problem sailors and rookie sailors from the beginning.
Although Admiral Halsey stepped up training and education for them after being activated again, the situation is still not ideal.Especially after gathering at the Guantanamo base, many sailors were already on the verge of mental breakdown due to the highly intense operations in the past few days, and after the news of this desperate expedition spread, the nerves of these half-baked sailors were pushed to the bottom. It was so tense that it was about to explode.During the days when the fleet was moored and prepared at the Guantanamo base, there have been various mistakes, big and small, and it looks neurotic from top to bottom.On average, the air raid alarm was mistakenly issued once a day, or the patrolling destroyer signaled that a Soviet submarine was found outside the port, and without waiting for instructions, it hit the head and face with a few shots, but it was later found that all of them were false alarms.It made the fleet tense at first, but too many times, and eventually it became numb.
——Fundamentally speaking, after so many years of fighting, the entire United States is basically disabled, and now it has entered a near-death madness.
However, Admiral Halsey was going to lead such a nervous half-baked fleet on the last voyage of his career.
Still, the indomitable "Bull" Halsey was determined to do everything he could to bring his military record to a successful conclusion.

But the problem is that since the Pearl Harbor incident broke out and the Pacific War started more than seven years ago, in front of the RB Navy combined fleet with super golden elephant leg plug-ins, the U.S. Navy has been stripped and rebuilt many times—the aircraft carrier fleet is disabled , The carrier aviation is disabled, the land-based aviation is disabled, the battle fleet is disabled, the cruiser fleet is disabled, the destroyer fleet is disabled, the submarine fleet is disabled, the Marine Corps is disabled, and the entire federal navy is basically disabled.
Although relying on the full efforts of so many shipyards in China, the replenishment of various types of warships can barely keep up, but the training of sailors, captains and professional generals cannot be kept up.As a result, the U.S. Navy is filled with more and more rookies, the quality of officers and soldiers has shown an avalanche decline, and the incidence of various accidents has risen like a rocket. Mishits, collisions, rocks, and self-explosions on the battlefield Too many to make your scalp tingle.
Even if you are lucky enough to save some experienced and high-quality sailing veterans, or train a group of naval grassroots commanders who have learned a complete course during the war, they are also given priority to those who need to confront the RB Navy Combined Fleet. U.S. Pacific Fleet.The Atlantic Fleet under Halsey, because of the relatively few combat missions, has been a situation of various problem sailors and rookie sailors from the beginning.
Although Admiral Halsey stepped up training and education for them after being activated again, the situation is still not ideal.Especially after gathering at the Guantanamo base, many sailors were already on the verge of mental breakdown due to the highly intense operations in the past few days, and after the news of this desperate expedition spread, the nerves of these half-baked sailors were pushed to the bottom. It was so tense that it was about to explode.During the days when the fleet was moored and prepared at the Guantanamo base, there have been various mistakes, big and small, and it looks neurotic from top to bottom.On average, the air raid alarm was mistakenly issued once a day, or the patrolling destroyer signaled that a Soviet submarine was found outside the port, and without waiting for instructions, it hit the head and face with a few shots, but it was later found that all of them were false alarms.It made the fleet tense at first, but too many times, and eventually it became numb.
——Fundamentally speaking, after so many years of fighting, the entire United States is basically disabled, and now it has entered a near-death madness.
However, Admiral Halsey was going to lead such a nervous half-baked fleet on the last voyage of his career.
Still, the indomitable "Bull" Halsey was determined to do everything he could to bring his military record to a successful conclusion.
