The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 260 Bloody Hawaii

Just when the world was shocked by the expansion speed of the Japanese navy and army in the Philippines and the Pacific Ocean, when most military strategists were not optimistic about the outcome of the American war. Just when many people are doubting whether the Americans can keep Hawaii. Three ships flying the Danish flag quietly arrived at the islands of Kauai, Oahu and Hawaii under the cover of night.

Teams of U.S. Army soldiers in civilian clothes quickly completed the landing with the cooperation of the responders. The three ships transported a total of 5,000 US military officers and soldiers and their equipment. These troops were only the first wave of troops that the Americans used to strengthen the defenses of Hawaii, and the second wave would arrive three days later.

"Boys, our liner has arrived. The Lutz has sent you safely to your destination. Our naval guns will blow up the Japanese area within range. The rest is up to you! "Lutz high-speed auxiliary cruiser briefing Major Wilson said humorously before the Marine Corps landed.

The Lutz is a 14,000-ton cruise ship. Its powerful power of up to 20,000 horsepower is enough to allow the ship to run at a high speed of 22 knots. It is precisely because of this speed that Americans dare to fly without the cover of the fleet. The following ships transported 2,000 marines to the island of Hawaii.

Major Wilson walked in fear along the way, for fear that those terrifying Japanese cruisers would intercept him, but the facts proved that Japan seemed powerless. The whole fleet arrived at the destination safely. As an auxiliary cruiser, the purpose of Lutz is not only to send people to their positions, but also to use naval guns to teach the Japanese on the shore a good lesson.

I have to say that the Americans have good brains and efficiency. In just 2 weeks, they converted this ship into a good protective cruiser, equipped with 8 6-inch L30 guns, and at the same time There are also 20 6-pound naval guns and eight 3-inch naval guns with army mounts that can be replaced at any time. The opponents of these sharp artillery are Hilo's Japanese expatriates.

That's right, they are Japanese nationals. In this US military operation, all Japanese are enemies! In theory, regardless of gender or age, Americans who are full of hatred in their hearts urgently need an opportunity to vent their anger! They need a fierce and resolute battle to completely resolve the Japanese forces in Hawaii!

"The Japanese have launched multiple attacks on the city hall and other institutions. A large-scale conflict broke out between the two sides 5 days ago. The Japanese have an unknown number of weapons. After the conflict broke out, the Japanese began to arrange actions in an organized manner. People began to build barricades in the southern urban area where Japanese people gathered, while other people besieged and harassed our people. Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise, I am afraid that the Japanese will have the final say in a few days. "The person in charge of the joint said with lingering fear.

"Okay, you just need to be responsible for leading the way, and leave the rest to us. Let us deal with those nasty Japanese dwarfs!" Lieutenant Colonel Grant took a deep breath and said. "Tell the brothers, we only need to do one thing here, and that is to kill! Kill! Kill! Kill all the Japanese who resist!"

With the help of the responders, the U.S. Army took a dismantled 6-pound gun off the ship, reassembled it, and marched towards the Japanese barricades under the pull of limited horses. Others, under the leadership of the commander, took advantage of the night to enter the preset starting position. When everything was ready, with three dazzling red flares rising into the sky, the roar of the 6-inch artillery of the Lutz auxiliary cruiser set off the prelude to the attack!

Although it is an old-fashioned annealing gun,

But it is enough to deal with Japanese expatriates who are not even considered quasi-armed organizations. The roar of heavy artillery pierced the silent night sky. Countless dark red lights rise up on the coast. More than 90% of the Japanese never thought that they would be bombarded by heavy artillery! When the fireball that heralds destruction fell from the sky, the Japanese will to resist has already tended to collapse!

Accompanied by bursts of deafening explosions, picric acid high-explosive bombs exploded on the wooden houses of the Japanese, and the extremely flammable charge instantly swallowed a large area of ​​houses. Before the Americans launched their attack, the Japanese had already fallen into In chaos!

When the American infantry rushed to the Japanese barricades with bayonets under the cover of machine guns and 6-pound rapid-fire guns, the outcome of the war was actually decided, and this was a massacre! The Americans used bullets and bayonets to kill the Japanese who had just survived the sudden artillery fire one by one. Many people were killed by the oncoming bullets as soon as they struggled out of the ruins and flames.

And the Americans in Hilo are also helping the army to clean up these enemies. They directly cooperate with the US Army to surround the entire Japanese gathering area, and then directly acquire them from the outside to the inside! In just one night, Hilo’s Japanese descendants became a historical term. In this massacre, the death rate of Hilo’s Japanese descendants was more than 40%, and another 30% were injured to varying degrees. A large number of people did not survive the torture of injuries. And less than half of the remaining Japanese were also imprisoned in concentration camps by the Americans!

On the same night, similar events occurred on the other main islands of the Hawaiian archipelago. The Americans used blood and fire to answer the world's doubts about their power. Of course, considering the backward communications of this era and the deliberate blockade of the Americans. It was not until a week later that the incident reached Tokyo, Japan. At this time, the Americans have already shipped more than 8,000 other troops, their equipment, and a large amount of supplies to Hawaii!

"Although our navy has been severely damaged, the United States still will not allow the Republic of Hawaii to fall into the hands of the Japanese! Absolutely not, if the Japanese want to come, then we will fight on land! 50,000 soldiers of the United States of America will Teach the hateful Japanese how to fight land warfare!" The gunpowder-flavored oath issued by the President of the United States shocked the whole world!

On the same day, Germany and Russia also expressed their support for the U.S. action. They believed that the subversive activities carried out by Japanese immigrants before this time had broken through the bottom line of the Hawaiian government, and it was a just move for the U.S. military to be invited to Hawaii to suppress the rebellion. Among them, the massacre of civilians and some inhumane things are directly exposed. He also expressed the hope that both sides can exercise restraint and not allow the war to expand further.
