The declaration of Wang Hengyue, President of the Republic of China, shocked the United States and the whole world.
And the Chinese ** team has also begun to fulfill their presidential oath!
Planes continue to bomb London and other places, one after another, never knowing fatigue. Asia, under the leadership of China, is also fully committed to this war.
Victory will bring everything to the victorious country.
The day after the presidential declaration was issued, Japanese President Masahiro Suzuki led Japan to declare war on the United States, the United Kingdom, and all Allied Powers.
At the same time, Masahiro Suzuki announced in the name of revolution that Japan would send no less than 300,000 civilian laborers to China from August to October 1943. By January 1944, this number would reach 800,000¡ª¡ª 1000000.
And inspired by the declaration of President Wang Hengyue, the defenders of Sicily also burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, and the already precarious situation was miraculously changed.
China requires the defenders of Sicily to hold on until at least the end of August to buy enough time for the Chinese Army to carry out large-scale reinforcements.
The Italians are not trustworthy, but you can completely believe in the heroic fighting skills of the German army. Without the constraints of Red Russia, the Germans could devote all their energy to fighting the Allies.
At this time, controlling the sea has become crucial.
In July 1943, the Sino-US naval war finally broke out
Before the naval war broke out, the Hawaiian Islands controlled by the United States were also undergoing some changes. Historically and righteously Hawaii has nothing to do with the United States. Even Hawaii was once an independent country.
Hawaii originally belonged to Queen Liliuokalani.
Queen Liliuokalani, who was born into a royal family, married American John Oyun Dominez on September 16, 1862, but did not have any children. Since she had no children, she chose her niece Victoria Kaolani as her heir. Unfortunately, Victoria passed away in 1899.
Queen Liliuokalani succeeded her brother Kalakaua on January 17, 1891. In August of the same year, her husband Dominez died. After taking the throne, she was determined to amend the constitution because the existing bayonet constitution planned and formulated by the Americans restricted her power. Unfortunately, Hawaii at that time was basically controlled by the Americans, and reforms were difficult to implement. After a brief reign of less than three years, Queen Liliuokalani was overthrown in 1893. The Americans established the Republic of Hawaii the following year. But until the 1890s, the Kingdom of Hawaii existed as an independent monarchy and was recognized by the United States, Britain, France, Japan, and Germany at that time.
However, as the history of the kingdom evolved. The Hawaiian monarchy was gradually threatened. However, this threat was not taken seriously by the royal family until 1887, when King David Kalakaiva was forced to sign the "Bayonet Constitution." On January 14, 1893, Queen Lily attempted to promulgate her new constitution, although she was unsuccessful. But the move eventually became the trigger for a coup. On the same day, the opponents held a meeting and determined the ultimate goal of the action: to depose the queen, overthrow the monarchy, and seek support and even integration from the United States.
??????????????????????????????????????? Immediately afterwards. They took a series of actions, including establishing a safety committee. on January 16th. Hawaii State Marshal Charles B. Wilson received information about the coup. Wilson requested the arrest of 13 members of the dissenters' security committee and the declaration of martial law throughout the country. But because members of the Security Committee have very close political ties with U.S. Secretary of State George L. Stephens. The request for arrest was rejected by the top judge and cabinet ministers because they believed that an arrest would cause further escalation of the situation.
Afterwards, Wilson negotiated with opposition leader Thurston, but the result failed, so Wilson began to recruit supporters to fight against the opposition. In the end, they gathered 496 people, ready to protect the Queen's safety at any time. On January 17, a police officer was shot and wounded while barring a weapons-laden wagon from the Honolulu Rifles, a unit of the safety committee headed by Lauren Thurston. The beginning of the coup. The Security Council was concerned that the shooting would reveal their whereabouts and that the Royal Government would take armed action, thus scuttling the coup plan in its infancy. Therefore, the Council initiated the coup. They organized about 1,500 heavily armed soldiers from the Honolulu Rifles and marched to the palace. Eventually, these non-Indigenous soldiers were stationed at Ariolani Palace, just a street away from the Royal Palace, and awaited the Queen's reply!
At the same time, the committee sought help from U.S. Secretary of State George L. Stephens and requested U.S. troops to land in Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii, to ensure the personal and property safety of ordinary American residents without combat capabilities. Finally??Stephens summoned an armed company of marines and two companies of sailors to Hawaii, and the 162 soldiers landed successfully on January 16. Although this force is well-equipped, they have always maintained a relatively neutral position. They did not enter the palace, actually participate in the coup, nor occupied any territory, nor even fired a shot. However, their presence did further stimulate the local people. The fighting spirit of the Americans has put a lot of pressure on the Hawaiian royal family.
In the end, under the Queen's purpose of "avoiding bloodshed" and the strong advice of her cronies and ministers, Queen Liliuokalani announced her surrender. The Honolulu Rifles occupied government buildings, disbanded the Royal Guard, and declared a provisional government. The coup of 1893 was successful and the Kingdom of Hawaii was overthrown. In 1895, Hawaiians who supported the queen, led by Wilcox, plotted to launch an uprising, but failed. Nearly two hundred people were sentenced to severe sentences. The unknowing Queen was also sentenced to five years of hard labor and fined $5,000.
Because the Hawaiians reacted strongly and the public was angry, the authorities were worried about triggering another uprising, so they reduced the penalty. After the United States acquired Hawaii, its strategic position in the Far East and Pacific became extremely favorable, and a new era of competition for hegemony in the Far East and Pacific began.
The movement for Hawaiian sovereignty continues.
Many real Hawaiians, they and their descendants have always been fighting for the democratic sovereignty of Hawaii. They refuse to recognize the rule of the United States. A free Hawaii is the lifelong dream of many of them.
The world war brought them opportunities, especially after China and the United States had bad relations and declared war on each other, it gave them hope of restoring Hawaii's sovereignty.
??The Chinese fully support Hawaiian independence, and they have done a lot of work for this purpose
"A fully sovereign Hawaii will make countless contributions to the peace of the Far East and the world." In 1942, when meeting with Assano Davis Sadund, the leader of the Hawaiian restoration movement, Wang Hengyue, the President of the Republic of China He said: "In order to restore the independence of Hawaii, China will exert its due power to support your just actions."
With the support of the Chinese people, everything will be easier.
On June 28, 1943, Assano Davis Sadund and his followers announced the establishment of the "Provisional Government of the Kingdom of Hawaii" in Nanjing, the capital of China. Sadund himself served as the "Chairman of the Acting Regent Committee of the Kingdom of Hawaii" ¡± and ¡°Acting Secretary of the Interior, Kingdom of Hawaii.¡±
This is a historic moment, which means that the United States' stealing of Hawaii is completely unjustified and illegal.
On the day the "Provisional Government of the Kingdom of Hawaii" was established, it was recognized by China, Germany, Italy, and Russia.
Now, the Chinese can devote themselves to competing with the Americans for hegemony in the Pacific
This is a joint fleet composed of China, Russia, Ukraine and other countries. Although Russia is divided into dozens of countries, large and small, once their navy is united under the leadership of the Chinese, it still has considerable combat effectiveness.
Before the expedition, President Wang Hengyue specially inspected his fleet. When facing Chinese naval officers, Wang Hengyue said an intriguing saying:
¡°Guys, let¡¯s go to Hawaii for vacation!¡±
This sentence caused a lot of joy, "Go to Hawaii for vacation" and became a popular mantra among Chinese naval officers and soldiers.
Of course, it is easy to say that, but in the face of the upcoming naval war, the senior officers of the Chinese Navy dare not be careless at all.
This is an all-out battle, which is not only related to the ownership of maritime hegemony, but will even determine the final direction of the world war. Whoever loses this naval battle is likely to lose this war
At least for now, the German Navy can¡¯t provide any help!
However, President Wang Hengyue encouraged his subordinates in his own way. He told these officers who had defeated the Japanese Navy and the British Navy:
"Don't be afraid of losing anything, because we have the capital to lose. We own most of Asia, and will soon own all of Asia. As the war continues, we still have the most abundant resources, and we have not even used our real resources. Strength, even if we fail in this naval battle, we can still fight a second time."
This is a promise and an encouragement. There is no exaggeration in Wang Hengyue's words. He has enough capital to carry out a major war of attrition. If he has enough capital, he will face failure. If he has enough capital, he can win this war. victory.
Wang Hengyue is even more convinced that the navy he has spent a lot of effort to build will definitely not let him down! (To be continued)
