Chapter 2576: The turning point of World War II

Views:

Xu Rui met Einstein. He knew that Einstein was his only hope of returning to the original time and space, so he had an in-depth exchange with him. Einstein was completely fascinated by Xu Rui's theory of quantum states and the relationship between light and light. Attracted by the pulse theory, he decided to study these two experiments, and this is exactly the theory Xu Rui wanted. If the theory can be successfully tested, then Xu Rui will most likely return to the original time and space.

At this time, Xu Rui thought of the "Manhattan Project" in the United States, and couldn't help but think that the Germans had also begun to develop atomic bombs. In the original history, the Germans were very fast in developing atomic bombs. He must remind the Americans that they were rushing to The Germans had previously developed the atomic bomb. "

Einstein naturally knew the dangers involved. If the Germans were allowed to successfully develop an atomic bomb in advance, the entire world would face catastrophe.

Einstein said: "The thing I regret most in my life is opening the Pandora's box of atomic weapons. We must never let atomic weapons destroy mankind, never!"

Xu Rui said: "So, we must prevent the Germans from developing the atomic bomb first, otherwise it will be a tragedy for mankind all over the world."

Einstein said: "You can't see Oppenheimer now. Even I don't know where he is. I heard that he has been closely protected by the military. If you want to stop the Germans, then I can help you contact him. President Roosevelt's aide, Carl, he'll definitely make a difference."

"Okay." Xu Rui said.

Einstein immediately called for his assistant and asked him to call Karl. Karl obviously valued Einstein and answered the phone himself.

"What? Professor, you mean, the Germans are also studying the atomic bomb?"

"Yes, and the Germans are probably going faster than we are," Einstein said.

"Okay, Professor Einstein, I will take this issue seriously and report it to Mr. President immediately."

After Einstein ended the phone call with Cole, he came to see Xu Rui again and chatted with Xu Rui about some physics issues. Speaking of which, Xu Rui only knew a little about physics, but he only took advantage of his own advantages across the ages. Only people can shock Einstein. If you really want to discuss it in detail, it will naturally leak the truth. Therefore, Xu Rui did not have too many academic exchanges with Einstein. He just shared some of the new century theories he knew with Einstein. After saying this, Einstein was extremely shocked. In his eyes, Xu Rui had become a unique genius in the world of physics. Some of his novel theories completely subverted many of the original understandings of physics.

Einstein said: "Mr. Xu Rui, you should stop being a soldier. You should use your strengths in a broader field. If you can stay and be my partner, it will be my honor. Maybe, We can win a few more Nobel Prizes in physics, and we will become the greatest scientists this world has ever seen."

Xu Ruixin said, it's okay, you can just become the greatest scientist yourself. I have no interest in it. Besides, if you really want to start research, you will have to leak the truth in less than two days.

Thinking of this, Xu Rui said: "Professor Einstein, I appreciate your kindness, but now is a war era, and I am needed more on the battlefield."

Einstein's expression darkened. Seeing that Xu Rui had made up his mind, he knew that he could not change Xu Rui's mind, so he could only say: "Okay, Mr. Xu Rui, the door of my laboratory is open to you at any time, and you will be here tonight." Some of the suggestions given to me have completely opened up my thinking. Perhaps, the world will change because of this... "

Unconsciously, the two people had been chatting for more than two hours. Einstein's assistant reminded Einstein that the time was up, but Einstein seemed to ignore it until the assistant reminded Einstein again that Einstein was here. The talent was still full of ideas and he said: "Mr. Xu, I hope we will have the opportunity to communicate in the future."

Xu Rui said: "Professor Einstein, there will definitely be such an opportunity. I also hope that you can study the theory of exceeding the speed of light as soon as possible and apply it to practice to build a time machine. In that case, you can definitely get it again." Nobel Prize in Physics.”

With Einstein's reluctance to leave, Xu Rui left Einstein's residence and drove back to his residence. Xu Rui knew that this trip to the United States had come to an end, and it would not be long before the United States would launch a war in the Pacific battlefield. For a new offensive, he must return to Guadalcanal to join the three regiments and prepare to participate in future battles...

Just as the Sino-US Allied Forces and the Japanese were fighting on Guadalcanal, the world's anti-Japanese situation had undergone tremendous changes. In October 1942, the British and American Allied Forces, under the command of British Montgomery, launched the North African Allied Forces. In the Second Battle of El Alamein, although the famous German general Rommel, known as the Desert Fox, commanded the German and Italian troops to fight back desperately, they lost many generals under the powerful offensive of the British and American Allies. By 1944, all Axis forces were driven out of the African battlefield, and the Allies began to focus their attention on the Mediterranean.

The Second Battle of El Alamein was a turning point in the North African battlefield during World War II. The German army suffered 6,000 casualties, the Italian army suffered 4,000 casualties, and the British army suffered more than 7,000 casualties. The victory of this battle reversed the situation on the North African battlefield. The Allied victory at El Alamein ended German hopes of occupying Egypt and controlling the Suez Canal and the oil fields of the Middle East.

At the same time, the Soviet army and the German army also fought a big battle in Stalingrad. The Soviet army fought from July 17, 1942 to February 2, 1942 in order to defend Stalingrad and crush the heavy German army group in the direction of Stalingrad. On that day, a series of strategic offensive and defensive battles were carried out around Stalingrad.

In the early stages of the battle, as the German army was approaching, Stalin was disappointed with Timoshenko, the frontline commander, and dismissed him from his post. Then he appointed Deputy Supreme Commander Zhukov and Chief of General Staff Vasilevsky to command the entire Stalingrad army. After months of bloody fighting, in early November 1942, the German army finally slowly advanced to the banks of the Volga River and occupied 80% of the entire city. It divided the remaining Soviet troops into two long and narrow pockets, but the German army still failed. Complete capture of Stalingrad.

The Battle of Stalingrad was one of the most tragic battles in World War II and even in the history of human warfare. The entire campaign lasted 199 days. Due to the scale of the battle, the number of casualties has never been accurately counted. In the final stage of the battle, the German army still dealt a heavy blow to the Soviet Red Army. At the same time, the Soviet Red Army also almost wiped out the entire German 6th Army and the 4th Armored Army. The numbers of 21 German divisions were eliminated from the sequence list, and another A large number of directly affiliated troops were wiped out. The Soviets estimated that 1.5 million Axis troops were wiped out in the entire campaign.

Of course, the Soviet Union also paid a heavy price for its victory in Stalingrad. The Soviet Red Army suffered 474,871 deaths and 650,878 wounded or captured in the Battle of Stalingrad, for a total of 1,129,619 casualties.

However, although the Soviet army suffered heavy losses, it clearly had the upper hand. This was because the German army was eliminated by the reorganization system and its combat effectiveness no longer existed. Their new troops could not develop combat effectiveness without a period of training.

The remaining troops of the Soviet Red Army can quickly form combat effectiveness by replenishing new troops with the old leading the new. Moreover, it was difficult for the German army to replenish personnel and supplies, and the Soviet Red Army's replenishment speed and quantity far exceeded that of Germany. Germany's power was weakened as a result.

The Battle of Stalingrad also became the most critical turning point in World War II.

With the victory of the Chinese and American Allied Forces on the Guadalcanal battlefield, the entire situation of World War II took a huge turn. The Allied forces took the initiative on all fronts and turned into a strategic counterattack.

At this time, Xu Rui has returned to Guadalcanal, preparing for the next military operation that is about to begin.

After the Guadalcanal War, the war situation became relatively quiet. The US military only launched a limited offensive in the Pacific. In May 1944, it recaptured Attu Island in the Aleutian Islands. Although the Japanese army launched a counterattack, it was in vain.

However, the Japanese army did not want to give up the initiative in the Pacific War. The navy, represented by Marshal Yamamoto Isoroku, had been planning another attack on Guadalcanal.

Yamamoto Isoroku was born into a samurai family. Because his father Takano Sadakichi was fifty-six years old that year, he was given the strange name Takano Isoroku, and Takano Isoroku's mother The Yamamoto family had no heirs, so Takano Isoroku inherited his mother's surname and changed his name to Yamamoto Isoroku.

The education method of little Japan is rather strange. When Yamamoto Isoroku was ten years old, his father slashed his thigh twelve times with a samurai sword to show that Yamamoto Isoroku had served.

Isoroku Yamamoto graduated from the 14th class of Japan Naval University. After he became an officer, he often returned to his hometown to visit the ancestral graves of the Takano and Yamamoto families. Most of his salary was sent to his mother to support his brother and sister, and sometimes he also paid school fees for the children of relatives and teachers.

Because of this, Yamamoto Isoroku spent almost all his savings, so he never got married. Moreover, Yamamoto Isoroku was fond of gambling, and the gambling products were good. He valued gambling and games of chance more than food. He is an expert at playing poker, bridge, Go and betting. He gambled with his colleagues, with his subordinates, and often with geishas, and he gambled seriously.

He bet 3,000 yuan with a good friend. The money could buy a good house in Tokyo. As a result, Yamamoto Isoroku lost and his friend laughed it off. However, Yamamoto Isoroku insisted on paying off the debt and took out money from his salary every month. He had to repay part of it for more than ten years.

When Yamamoto was on a mission to Europe, it was said that because of his superior gambling skills and winning too much money, Yamamoto was even banned from Monaco's casinos. He was the second Japanese gambler banned from Monaco (the first one was during the Russo-Japanese War). Genjiro Akashi, the king of Japanese agents stationed in Europe during the period). Yamamoto once said that if the emperor gave him a year to gamble, he could win back an aircraft carrier for Japan.
