Imperial Overlord

"General! It's ready!" On the beach, an officer came over, stood behind the man who was looking at the sea, and reported.

The man nodded, and broke free from the daze: "Let the soldiers board the ship, let's get out of here."

On the simple dock in the distance, there were soldiers waiting to leave, all of them listless, waiting for their own redemption.

It was rainy and cloudy on the island, and every day seemed to be a torture. The attack of the Japanese army was like gangrene on the bone, which was frightening.

They would burst out of the jungle in the same wet uniforms, shouting long live the Emperor, and killing every American soldier.

Like a demon from hell, no one has the courage to raise their hands and surrender to such an enemy. I heard that the captured people will be eaten as food, so everyone can only run back desperately.

As I ran, I lost my weapon, and as I ran, I forgot that I was still a soldier.

Everyone was retreating, and no one wanted to stay and fight the Japanese. So the whole Philippines collapsed and everyone was desperate.

The naval ship never appeared, and the counterattack of the naval battleship that everyone was looking forward to became a joke.

MacArthur stood on the beach, watching his men dismayed as they boarded the most unwieldy war he had ever commanded.

At this moment, he has not seen the horror of the Volunteer Army in North Korea, and he has not been educated by German tanks on the European battlefield... So in his eyes, these Japanese are almost the most terrifying army in the world. .

Who would have thought that in 1940, there would still be an army that could rely on two legs and bicycles to win one victory after another in the jungle?

"The Japanese army has occupied Luzon, and our line of defense is collapsing." The adjutant behind him told the latest battle situation.

Relying on adequate preparation, Japan's attack speed can be described as crazy. Their propulsion speed in the jungle is even faster than in the plains.

To make MacArthur even more desperate, he lost both air support and sea support.

The retreat has become an extravagant hope. The Japanese warships are haunted and have sunk many American warships and transport ships.

The Zero fighter has left a deep impression on the Americans. In the eyes of American pilots, the aircraft of the US Navy is simply an invincible existence.

The fighter jets that took off were shot down, and few pilots could fly their own planes, get rid of the Japanese Zero fighters, and fly back safely.

The problem with the navy is even more serious. Except for a few destroyers that can operate near Luzon, there are almost no warships that can go to the Philippines to perform missions.

The direction of the Japanese naval combined fleet's attack at this moment is obviously not in the Philippines, otherwise the 100,000 American troops in MacArthur's hands may not even have the chance to retreat.

"The navy is desperately pulling troops from the east coast, but they can't repair Pearl Harbor now, and the navy's counterattack will have to wait until at least 1942." The adjutant said helplessly.

Even with the terrifying construction capabilities of the United States, it is impossible to repair Pearl Harbor within a year.

Including the warships that sank in Pearl Harbor, none of these ships could be salvaged, and repairs became a luxury.

Therefore, it is impossible for the U.S. Navy to prepare in a short period of time, and the Japanese attack cannot be stopped at all.

The troops drawn from the east coast were all reinforced on the west coast of the continental United States. Rumors that the Japanese combined fleet was going to attack the mainland of the United States were roaring, causing panic among the top U.S. leaders.

But no matter how hard the U.S. Navy works, all they can do is the destroyer fleet and the submarine force.

Submarine forces deployed in Australia are working hard to attack Japanese transport ships, delaying Japan's advance in the Philippines and Malaya.

The commander of the U.S. Navy who was ordered in danger is still the famous General Nimitz in history.

After he did not have an aircraft carrier in his hands, he decisively began to activate the submarine force to harass the rear of Japan.

And this decision really hit the soft underbelly of the Japanese navy, and the lack of anti-submarine capability really gave the Japanese navy a headache.

However, it was just a headache. The Japanese navy has countless ships for sea transportation, and the damage that American submarines can cause is completely negligible at this time.

"Let the soldiers board the ship as much as possible! This is our Dunkirk!" MacArthur cheered his men bitterly.

Now they are recruiting civilian ships to withdraw the soldiers to Australia. It was an arduous retreat, as the Japanese navy could appear at any time.

The sky was cloudy, and the rainy season in Southeast Asia saved the British government in exile, as well as American troops in the Philippines.

In bad weather, Japan's terrible Zero fighters will not appear, and the pressure on air defense will be much less.

"God bless America." The weather favored him, which made MacArthur feel a little better.

His troops were chased here from the Philippines all the way by the Japanese army, and there were only less than 150,000 of the 250,000 American troops left.

The order of the top US is to do everything possible to force as many soldiers back to Australia and abandon areas such as the Philippines and Malaya.

Shrinking the force, ensuring the safety of American submarines before leaving the base, and preventing the Japanese from attacking Australia has become the best tactic for the United States.

Since there is no tug of war in the Philippines and Malaya~www.wuxiaspot.com~, it can only be a time-consuming and protracted war in Australia.

Delaying Japan for a year, waiting for the U.S.’s sky-defying construction capabilities to begin to unfold, the U.S. will have the final say in the outcome of the war.

"We are running out of time! Let more soldiers get on board! The news just came that the defense line of the rear guard has been breached by the Japanese army." An officer hurried over and said to MacArthur.

"Let the slow ship leave the port! Urge the soldiers to board the ship as quickly as possible!" MacArthur frowned and instructed all the officers around him.

"Someone fell into the water! Someone fell into the water!" On the simple dock in the distance, a ship tore off the boarding springboard. The soldiers screamed loudly, and the scene became chaotic.

"Sir! It's getting more and more dangerous here... Board the ship!" The adjutant whispered, persuading MacArthur.

"I left, but I will definitely come back!" MacArthur glanced at the jungle on the other side of the beach, and with a hint of anger, opened his mouth and said his classic running saying.
