After bringing Sweden under his command, Hissler's appetite seemed to improve a lot. With the Western Continent having nowhere to occupy, he ordered Marshal Bock to continue to step up the final attack on the Red United States, while giving himself the original The confidant guard Rommel strengthened his troops and let him continue to expand his power in the southern continent.

Because of the weakness of the Roman army, Melini's wish to expand his strength in the southern continent was not realized, but suffered heavy losses.Regarding the combat achievements of the Roman army, Rommel felt very speechless. He really wanted to ask the commander of the Roman army how the battle was fought.Equipped with a complete tank and artillery system, and supported by the air force, the Roman Army was beaten helplessly by the guerrillas armed by those local tribes.

What's even more bizarre is that just three days ago, an army headquarters of the Roman army was destroyed by guerrillas. Six generals under Lieutenant General Nineveh, commander of the army, and more than 30 school officers were killed. There was confusion in one of the army groups.As a result, in the chaos, the guerrillas stole more than 30 CV33 ultra-light tanks and a large amount of ammunition from the arsenal, and completely blew up the arsenal before leaving.

In fact, in the Roman colonies on the southern continent, this army group was the only one in chaos.Today, Rome's colonies in the southern continent are in chaos, and the local garrisons have difficulty suppressing the rebellion, and the situation has become increasingly unstable.After becoming more and more disappointed with the domestic army, Melini finally decided to invite the Teutonic country to send troops to help stabilize the situation in the southern continent, which is one of the reasons why Hissler decided to send troops.

Merlini seemed a little humbled to Hissler. He sent this telegram for help in a pleading tone, and the conditions he gave in the telegram were also very tempting. The colonies west of Tunisia would be ceded to the Teutonic State , as a condition for sending troops, at the same time, Rome will bear all the logistical expenses of the Teutonic Army fighting on its land.Under such circumstances, with a swipe of the pen, Hissler added [-] troops and [-] tanks to Rommel in advance, as the first batch of military guarantees to enter the Roman colonies, so as to avoid weakening the defensive forces of their own colonies.

The first thousand and 340 chapters annexed the Sulu Islands

In order to ensure Rommel's operations, Hissler even specially equipped him with an air force composed of 130 Junker [-]A bombers and [-] BF[-]G fighters to serve as air cover and support ground operations.To deal with a group of guerrillas armed with light weapons, Rommel was able to obtain such good equipment. It can be seen that Hissler has sufficient strength in his hands now, and he can also be rich from time to time. As for the extended meaning behind it, outsiders cannot understand Measured.

After entering the Roman colony, Rommel unexpectedly controlled the colonial government with the army, and personally held the logistics supplies in his hands.Such a situation seems to have the intention of annexation, which is obviously very impolite to the allies, but Melini did not raise any objections.

After going through successive battles, the weakness of the Roman army's combat effectiveness has made Melini heartbroken.The history of repeatedly asking the Teutonic Army to wipe their ass made Morini no longer regard himself as a pioneer of state capitalism, but as a student of Hissler.The change of identity made Melini completely lean towards the Teutonic state psychologically, hoping to rely on the powerful force of the Teutonic state to help the Roman state in the war.With this mentality, no matter what the Teutonic Army does, they will receive unconditional support from Melini.

Rommel did this as a last resort, because he knew that the reason why the Roman army was so unbearable actually had a lot to do with the problem of logistical supplies.Rome's logistics supply system, as one of the most corrupt systems in the world, is famous for its inefficiency and mistakes, and even many strange things happened on the front line.

It was not uncommon for infantrymen on the front line to distribute grenades, only to find bottles of red wine inside the boxes, and for artillerymen to open shell boxes ready for battle, only to find butter neatly packed inside.What's more, during Thanksgiving, it is very normal for the ammunition train to give way to the turkey train.Letters from home, coffee, cigarettes, chewing gum, and even small Christmas gifts, which are useless luxuries on the battlefield, have a higher priority than military rations, weapons and ammunition.In addition, problems such as the wrong caliber of shells and bullets, corruption of logistics officials, and the reselling of weapons and equipment to the black market have occurred frequently, resulting in such a situation.

Rommel didn't want to be dragged down by this wonderful logistical supply capability, so he could only temporarily take over the opponent's government and logistical system to prevent all kinds of chaos from happening.The logistics supply system of the Teutonic Army is very advanced, and it quickly and efficiently operated after taking over the Roman colonies.Relying on the smooth supply of logistics, the Teutonic Army attacked in all directions and quickly suppressed the activities of the guerrillas.

Rommel's clever means made it difficult for the guerrillas to display their combat effectiveness, so they could only hide in the rainforest and circle around.For those guerrillas, Rommel would not pay attention to them. He is more like making contributions and becoming a famous general through the ages.Relying on the troops and weapons Hessler mobilized for him, he soon began to encroach on the colonies of the Allied Powers, and the colonies of the Military Powers in the southern continent continued to expand.

The Teutonic Army entered the colony of the Roman State and continued to attack southward, without causing much disturbance. The White Eagle State had no colonies there, and the Saar Empire was unwilling to pay attention to that place because of its weakened national power and the corruption of the southern continent.Apart from Rome, which welcomed the matter, only Hualan's General Staff Headquarters issued a warning order to Egypt and the Mediterranean coast.The order requires the troops there to prepare for first-level combat readiness to respond to emergencies at any time. After all, after entering the Roman colony, the spheres of influence of the Teutonic and Hualan countries can be regarded as bordering each other.

The guard against the Teutonic Army was at best a precautionary measure. Now that the Teutonic and Hualan Kingdoms were still allies, it was unlikely that anything would go wrong before the White Eagle Kingdom fell.Xie Mingjue and Zhao Shouhong are more concerned about the direction of the Eastern Ocean, which is the fundamental lifeline of Hualan Kingdom.

Just as the White Eagle Kingdom was preparing to completely destroy the Hualan Kingdom's Eastern Ocean Fleet with a major battle, the Zhainiyang East Indies Squadron suddenly dispatched to cover a fleet carrying a garrison and four Japanese A large fleet of infantry divisions suddenly landed on Luzon Island in the Sulu Islands.

Several old destroyers and torpedo boats stationed at Subic Naval Port were all sunk by the Hualan cruiser before leaving the port.After completely destroying the White Eagle's sea power, the Japanese Army and the Hualan Army began to land on Luzon Island, and soon defeated the White Eagle's colonial army.

The land composed of islands is scattered and small, which is most suitable for the Beihua-class battleship's 600mm caliber main gun.Under the bombardment of the battleships, the White Eagle Army could not resist at all, even in the anti-blasting holes. If they lay on the ground and were [-] meters away from the explosion point, their internal organs could be shattered. How to defend against such a situation.

After the Japanese army used a new type of flamethrower, the spirit of the White Eagle Colonial Army completely collapsed.Before the enemy advanced to the vicinity, they chose to raise their hands and surrender, for fear that they would face the terrifying naval guns and flamethrowers, which is simply not a way of death that humans can bear.

One day after the Hualan Army launched its offensive, Lieutenant General Clark, who was in charge of the defense of the Sulu Islands, announced his surrender. He and the 17 White Eagle Army prisoners will spend the days before the end of the war in the prisoner camp.As a signatory to the Geneva Convention, Xie Mingjue will not order them to be abused. On the contrary, these soldiers will be raised with good food, drink, and treatment. brainwashing.Regarding this kind of brainwashing education, the military officers of the White Eagle Kingdom once protested, but the only answer they received was that the Geneva Convention does not stipulate that prisoners cannot attend classes.

The change of hands of the Sulu Islands resulted in the removal of a dagger held by the White Eagle Kingdom in the belly of the Hualan Kingdom. All the damaged warships were old-fashioned warships, and they thought it was the latest cutting-edge warship of the Hualan Kingdom), and they dared to take the initiative to attack the Sulu Islands.

The Minister of the Navy, suffocated, ordered the Eastern Ocean Fleet to speed up its preparations. At the same time, he transferred seventeen destroyers from the Coast Guard fleet to join the Hawaiian attack fleet, intending to teach the Hualan people a profound lesson.

After receiving this telegram to speed up preparations and must attack within a month, Nimitz shook his head and smiled wryly: "What's wrong with Jin? He also started from the bottom. Don't you know how cumbersome the preparations for naval battles are?"

The first thousand 340 chapters and five offensive plans

"The problem is not limited to our logistical supply problem." Lieutenant General Spruance said: "According to our spy reconnaissance, several submarine bases on Hualan Guoming's surface are empty, and all submarines have sailed."

"Are all 45 submarines going to attack? It's not a big problem." Lieutenant General Hewitt raised his eyebrows with a pipe in his mouth, seeming a bit disapproving.

"Do you think there are only these superficial submarines in Hualand? They were all built in the early 30s. I don't believe their submarines have never been developed." Lieutenant General Spruance retorted.

Admiral Halsey couldn't help feeling emotional when he heard this: "The submarines built by Hualando more than ten years ago are slightly more advanced than our best submarines today. If they continue to develop, I can't think of how to counter submarines."

"Okay gentlemen, don't scare yourself. Hualan Kingdom has focused on domestic construction in the past ten years. Apart from the navy's battleship and aircraft carrier construction plans, it seems that there are no new naval plans. I remember when Zhao Shouhong announced the construction of a Hundreds of new submarines, but then this plan fell through.” Nimitz clapped his hands and said, he knew that if it continued, everyone would be confused by the fear of the unknown, which was really unnecessary.

"The commander is right. At least a dozen destroyers have been sent from China. Relying on our sonar system, we should be able to gain something." Halsey laughed. He understood what Nimitz meant and immediately kept silent. said.

"I'm just worried about the country. They sent destroyers. What about the anti-submarine work on the coastline?" Lieutenant General Spruance raised his shoulders.

"Boys, it's up to you now. I think that although the Hualan Guodong Ocean Fleet has suffered heavy losses, there are still several aircraft carriers with a displacement larger than ours. It is still very dangerous if they form a joint force. Not to mention the opponent's shore-based bombers Although we are not good at bombing the sea, we will be attacked if we get too close." Nimitz looked at several people and said: "We must fight the enemy separately, so as to achieve our goal. I suggest sending out A fleet is going to attack the Japanese island of Honshu, where Hualan’s air force is the weakest, and it is an easy place to attack. If Honshu is occupied by us, it may be used as a base to counterattack their capital, which the Hualan people cannot tolerate.”

"Is it okay to change the plan like this?" Spruance seemed a little worried.

Nimitz said: "We are trying to attract the opponent's aircraft carrier fleet. This kind of attack will definitely spare no effort to rescue the opponent, and hope to use shore-based bombers to fight us. We will feign a shot so that they can't find us. But the main force went directly south to attack the island of New Guinea, so that our carrier-based aircraft would have an advantage over Hualan's shore-based air force, and we are sure to conquer this big island."

"What if the opponent counterattacks and drives the aircraft carrier fleet forward and backward?" Lieutenant General Hewitt asked.

"It's very simple. It will take at least a week for their aircraft carrier fleet to return from Honshu to New Guinea. By that time we have already conquered New Guinea and sent our air force there. When they come back, we can use the aircraft carrier The joint efforts with the shore-based air force taught them a lesson they will never forget." Nimitz looked at the people in the command room and said, "Do you have any questions?"

"Yes." Halsey looked at Nimitz and said, "Unless the Hualan Navy acts according to your plan, there is no chance of winning this battle."

Nimitz laughed and said: "Of course, I will make the feint attack very realistic. According to the old Hualan saying, the enemy must be saved when attacking. If I assign three aircraft carriers and three battleships to this direction, I believe they will have to Troops have been sent to help, and twelve escort aircraft carriers will join the battle."

"What? Escort aircraft carrier? Does the Navy have this type of ship?" Several commanders were very curious, they had never heard of this kind of warship.

"Of course, it just appeared." Nimitz said: "In view of the large number of land-based aviation in Hualan, in order to balance this situation, an independent-class escort aircraft carrier was designed. It is based on the domestic [-]-ton standard. The ro-ro ship is modified for the mother ship. This kind of aircraft carrier does not have a hangar, and all aircraft can only be parked on the deck. However, it has at least a straight-through deck and a right-hand bridge, and can carry [-] to [-] fighter jets. The air defense force will be guaranteed."

"So, we should be able to strengthen our air defense force." Halsey said: "I wonder how many escort aircraft carriers you have prepared for the main attack fleet?"

Nimitz said: "As the main attack fleet, such weapons are naturally indispensable. I will equip you with 25 escort aircraft carriers. In addition, your fleet will expand to ten Essex-class aircraft carriers and ten battleships. strength, you will succeed."

Halsey said: "Why don't you give me the rest of the aircraft carrier? It's more confident."

Nimitz shook his finger and said: "We always have to keep some reserves to deal with possible emergencies. I will place the remaining fleet in Guam as a possible contingency plan, but I hope it will not be used. to them."

"Of course, they are just for display. I will return in triumph." Lieutenant General Halsey replied with a slight smile.

Nimitz nodded: "Very good, gentlemen. Now I order Halsey to form the main southern attack fleet to attack New Guinea, and Lieutenant General Spruance to command the northern feint attack fleet to launch an attack on Japan's Honshu Island." You don't need to be within [-] nautical miles of the coast to prevent sneak attacks from the opponent's shore-based bombers. Remember that your purpose is to harass, you just need to make the opponent nervous, and attract the opponent's main fleet to go north. Your mission is finished."

"Yes, sir." Several generals stood up and agreed loudly.

The White Eagle Navy began intense preparations for sailing, a large amount of supplies were delivered to the warship, and the shipyard was busy maintaining and maintaining the warship, preparing for a new war.The radio communications between Hawaii, Guam, and the San Diego military port are extremely frequent. It seems that the White Eagle Kingdom no longer cares about confidentiality issues and uses radio unscrupulously.

It turns out that the radio encryption system of the White Eagle Kingdom has made great progress, enough to make him stand out from the crowd. Of course, at least they themselves think so.

Things have to start from the end of the First World War, when the Teutonic engineer Shelbius successfully developed the Enigma cipher machine, which consists of a rotor, a display screen, a keyboard and a plug-in wire.

The first thousand and 340 chapters and six Enigma cipher machines

In front of the rotor of the Enigma cipher machine is a display screen showing each letter of the alphabet, and in front of the display screen is a keyboard.This era is still a mechanical key, and it takes a lot more force to press it than to press a computer keyboard in later generations.When you type a letter on the keypad, a different letter lights up on the display.These are the letters written in the letter used as a cipher, but it must be looked at quickly and carefully, because the light is only on for a short while.

The rotors of the Enigma cipher machine are rotating, and when the first rotor rotates to a position, it will coincide with the 26 letters one by one.When the first rotor matches the 26 positions, it returns to the original position, and the second rotor rotates to the original position again. After the second rotor matches the 17576 positions, it also returns to the original position, and then the third rotor rotates to the original position. The rotor rotates into position.Relying on such a code, as long as the telegram does not exceed [-] letters long, the alphabet will not repeat itself.

It is also possible to remove the wheels of the rotor during operation and put them back in sequence.Because each rotor has different wiring, different permutations produce different codes.So there are 105456 possibilities.Adding a plug-in board to the front of the machine doubled the number of variations, for a total of more than 100000000000 different alphabets.

After Hissler came to power, the Teutonic Army used it for military communications after greatly increasing the complexity of this cipher machine.In fact, the Enigma cipher machine is still a mechanical encryption machine. Although it seems very complicated, as long as it has a large number of messages, it can still be deciphered.It's just that in the view of the Teutonic Army, as long as the complexity is increased, no one can find the law within a certain period of time.

However, the Teutons were overconfident, and Turing, a famous mathematician in the White Eagle Kingdom, soon joined the decoding team.He used the bomb decoding method designed by the Bailan people before the war to develop a bomb decoding machine.The bomb decoding machine uses hundreds of cipher gears to work at the same time, and can quickly calculate the encoding rules used by the Enig code. Even if the Teutonic people change the cipher book every month and the cipher rules every day, it will still be completed in a short time. The inside was cracked out.

After such a decoding process, Turing realized that no matter how complicated the mechanical code is, it can also be quickly deciphered.As a mathematician, Turing consulted a number of electrical engineers and began to design a machine that encrypts electrical signals. This is the electronic cipher machine used by the White Eagle Kingdom today.

The principle of the electronic cipher machine is the same as that of a computer, but it is relatively simple, but Bai Yingguo is still not at ease with such a cipher.Because when Turing used the bomb decoding machine to decipher the Hualan Guo military code, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't crack it at all.This discovery made Turing break out in a cold sweat. Thinking that the Enigma cipher machine, which was hailed as unbreakable by the Teutons, was cracked by himself, he felt that Hualan Kingdom should also have a way to crack the electronic cipher machine.In order to perform secondary encryption, Turing proposed an encryption method to the White Eagle Army, the language encryption method.

This method is very simple to say and has nothing to do with mathematics at all.Its principle is to use the difficult-to-understand language of ethnic minorities as a code, and the other party has no way of understanding the structure of this language, so naturally it cannot be deciphered.The White Eagle Army quickly turned its attention to the Navajo people who live on the border between Arizona and New Mexico.

The grammar and pronunciation of the Navajo language are extremely weird, and it sounds a bit like the screams of wild animals. The grammar and sound quality of this language are almost impossible to learn for non-Navajo people, and this language is not written. Form.The White Eagle Army took advantage of the incomprehensibility and secrecy of this language to form the Navajo Communications Unit.
