Chapter 132 Virtue Battle

The Tang Empire conducted nuclear tests and detonated atomic bombs, but did not announce to the outside world. Since nuclear tests were conducted on unmanned islands in the South Pacific, it was difficult for the outside world to obtain valuable information.

On one hand, the Tang army vigorously developed nuclear weapons on its own, while on the other hand, obstructing other countries in the world to obtain nuclear weapons. The military's intelligence personnel and the National Security Bureau were fully responsible.

At this time, the Tang Empire's secret service was spread all over the world, especially focusing on infiltration of the three countries of the United States, Germany and the Soviet Union. Although the Soviet Union had no sign of developing nuclear weapons at this time, the Tang Empire planned ahead and, with the support of Zhang Meng, it arranged spies to lurk in various departments within the Soviet Union early, and some had been lurking for eight years.

Both the United States and Germany are developing atomic bombs. The Tang Empire has intercepted the intelligence, but the Tang Dynasty agents rarely directly made trouble, mainly deliberately leaking intelligence to both the United States and Germany. Both the US and the German army secretly obtained the technology production and transfer agreement for long-range strategic bombers from the Tang Dynasty. The US military used this to produce a large-scale B29 strategic bomber, bombard the German mainland, and destroyed the German atomic bomb research and development base. The German army developed and produced the Junx 390 strategic bomber based on the relevant technologies of the Tang Dynasty's Dabaihe strategic bomber, and began to retaliately bomb the United States, and also bombed the US atomic bomb research and development base in Manhattan, killing more than 6,000 scientists involved in the development of the atomic bomb, and severely damaged the US atomic bomb project.

Hoover was so angry that he vomited blood. The Manhattan plan didn't even know even the vice president. The location was extremely secret. How did the Germans know such an accurate address?

In comparison, US strategic bombers can quickly fly to Germany for bombing with the help of North Africa. Bombers take off every day. German bombers need to cross the Atlantic Ocean to bomb the United States, and it would be great to be able to take off once a week.

However, the panic caused by the US military's bombing of the Germans every day is far less serious than the panic caused by the Germans' bombing of the US once a week.

Americans have never felt that foreign bombs landed on the American mainland. Unlike the Germans who grew up in war, Americans have been peaceful for too long and are even more afraid of war and sacrifice.

However, the Germans were not having a good time. As the US military controlled North Africa and prepared to land on the European continent from southern Europe, this put huge military pressure on the German army. At the same time, on the Soviet battlefield, the German army suffered heavy losses since the failure of the Second Battle of Stalingrad. The Soviet army entered a counterattack, which made the German army suffer from defense.

After several years of glorious victory in the war, the Germans gradually changed from the excitement at the beginning to reality. The war did not bring them substantial changes in life. Instead, they became increasingly poor. The nationalist excitement that supported Hitler at the beginning of the war was soon defeated by the cruel reality of life.

With the defeat on the Soviet battlefield, the Germans' depressed mood became stronger and stronger, and the source of soldiers became tighter. Only twenty years were separated between the two world wars. A generation of Germans soon disappeared in World War II after growing up. The Germans also faced the depletion of soldiers and had to defend most of Europe, and the troops were tight.

The US military is not worried about the German attack on the US mainland. Moreover, due to the economic crisis, a large number of unemployed people were conscripted to fight. The US military has a strong source of troops and is gathered in North Africa to prepare to land on the Italian Peninsula or the Greek Peninsula.

In the Pacific, as the first phase of the US-Tang Non-aggression Treaty expired, the Americans were very nervous and did not know whether the Tang Empire would renew the contract. Once the contract was not renewed, it meant that the Tang Empire was ready to start a war against the United States.

The U.S. Navy focused half of its maritime power on Pearl Harbor in the Pacific, just to worry about this.

However, what made them overjoyed was that the Tang Empire agreed to renew the treaty. On August 3, 1942, Zhang Meng and Hoover signed a renewal of the US-Tang non-aggression treaty in Chang'an, and the validity period was extended by another ten years. Last time, Zhang Meng took the initiative to sign the treaty in Washington. This time, if the US president personally rushed to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty to sign the treaty, the ten years of change meant that the Tang Empire had become truly powerful.

As the United States and Tang renewed the non-aggression treaty again, the Americans were relieved. The main fleet of the US Navy began to evacuate from the Pacific Pearl Harbor base and switched to the Mediterranean to deploy, preparing to fight the German high seas fleet and land in Europe.

On the other hand, after hearing the renewal of the contract between the United States and the Tang Dynasty, Hitler was stunned. He knew that the Tang Empire had abandoned the German-Italy alliance, and was obviously not optimistic about Germany-Italy able to win the war.

Hitler was angry and wanted to declare war on the Tang Empire immediately, but he quickly calmed down. At present, the German army could still insist that most of the steel and fuel needed for tanks, warships, and aircraft were supplied by the Tang Empire. It was provided to the German army by the Tang Empire under the pressure of the United States in order to make money. If the Tang Empire turned against the Tang Dynasty, steel and oil would be interrupted, which was not cost-effective.

At that time, Hitler was worried that the United States would join the war and helped Britain, so he dared not order submarines to attack American ships. Now, the US military knew that the merchant ships of the Tang Empire entered Ireland Island, the Tang Dynasty belonged to Gibraltar, the Tang Dynasty belonged to Cyprus and other places, and sold the materials to Germany and Italy, but they did not dare to attack the merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty. The reason was the same, and they were worried about the huge war machine of the Tang Dynasty.

Hitler endured it, but he knew it would not last long, because there was not much silver reserves in his hands for the gold and silver that he used to pay to the Tang Empire. Once he had no money to pay, the Tang Empire would inevitably put in the wrong without hesitation.

Hitler was extremely sad and decided to step up the development of the atomic bomb as the final counterattack weapon.

On February 3, 1943, the main fleet of the US Navy, which had just arrived in the North Atlantic, was suddenly attacked by the German high seas fleet. Hundreds of warships on both sides fought fiercely, battleships shot at each other, and submarines attacked each other's respective aircraft carrier-based aircraft fought in the air, which was extremely tragic.

This is the biggest naval battle in World War II since the Battle of Jutland. The German Navy plans to take advantage of the fatigue of the US Navy from afar and get rid of it in one fell swoop. The overall strength of the US Navy is stronger than that of the German high seas fleet. There are five more aircraft carriers in the main warships and two more super battleships. Other warships are basically on par with the German army. Although the German army took the lead in launching a raid, which severely damaged the US army, the US military's subsequent counterattack also caused heavy losses to the German high seas fleet.

The two sides fought fiercely for three days and three nights, and finally evacuated because of the emergency of ammunition.

In the end, the German High Seas Fleet lost 4 aircraft carriers, 3 battleships, 3 heavy cruisers, 47 destroyers and 5 submarines, 327 aircraft, and 12,000 casualties.

The U.S. Navy is not having a good time, losing 5 aircraft carriers, 4 battleships, 1 heavy cruiser and 28 destroyers, losing 229 aircraft, and 11,000 casualties.

Most of the German warships were sunk by US carrier-based aircraft, while most of the US warships were sunk by German submarines. Both sides suffered heavy losses. However, it was obvious that the German army was still using submarine attack tactics, but the US military followed the Tang army and focused on using aircraft carrier battle groups.
