Chapter 20
"You mean...Mr. Duke, is it possible to wear down a commander's energy?"
Yes, is it possible to drag down Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr.’s energy? The Seventh Fleet under his command has become a fleet due to the loss of Vice Admiral Robert Gormley’s aircraft carrier.
The most powerful air force of the US military in the Guadalcanal waters.
It is undeniable that the Seventh Fleet, in addition to the air fleet towed on Guadalcanal Island, also has two task forces on the sea, maintaining a strong air force.
Even if we attack them, it may not cause Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. to give up his rest time. And even without his command, the entire Seventh Fleet will suffer from command errors.
If this goal cannot be achieved, then will Duke Luckner's idea not be realized?
Discussions such as this are the most beneficial exploration for officers of the Chinese Federal Defense Force. Even in normal war games, senior officers are constantly honing the abilities and skills of their men. So now, China in front of us
Did the former ghost captain Duke Luckner, the father of the Federation Navy, come up with the basis for a combat plan, or was he just testing the analytical abilities of young naval officers like them?
In the war room of Xingtian Mansion, all the naval officers began to think nervously. No one wanted to lose their dignity in front of Duke Luckner. Because this pioneer of the navy had told all his students——
"There is no absolutely wrong plan in this world. The most important thing is whether it meets the needs of the current combat situation!"
While Duke Luckner was tasting the finest Tieguanyin and enjoying such a "leisurely" life with himself and his pipe in his mouth, William Frederick Halsey Jr. was far away in the Guadalcanal War Zone in the Navy.
Then, he stubbed out the cigar he had been holding in his mouth in the ashtray.
"I think I need to take a rest while the battle situation is not so tense now. You three should also go and get some sleep. This is an order!"
Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. has always attached great importance to the love and care of his subordinates. Especially when he replaced three flexible female adjutants in his air fleet. Especially these adjutants,
Just like him, he stayed up all day and night with coffee or strong tea.
This kind of human touch becomes more profound and more gentlemanly. When I take off the light but now almost unbearable communication equipment from my head, it belongs to Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr.
The three female adjutants shook their heads with hair of different colors in unison and rubbed the sore and painful neck bones on the back of their necks with their hands.
A day and a night without rest will not help with beauty, and will even push their energy to almost the limit. It is not a new thing for soldiers to be on duty for a day and night.
For this purpose, the Chinese Federation has developed stimulants for use by different branches of the military. Although the officers all have soldiers and actual combat experience, the continuous duty of soldiers of the Chinese Federation Defense Force is often not enough to require stimulants.
The U.S. military has not yet studied this level. Often, in this kind of combat, the details of the research will only be focused on when the equipment comprehensively surpasses other countries. Therefore, they can only rely on coffee and strong tea to refresh themselves.
Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. and his three lieutenants all looked very unhappy.
"Well, if you need someone to play a negative role in a cosmetics commercial these days, believe me, the three of you can do it without makeup!"
Before going to bed, he needed a little energy replenishment. Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. decided to be a gentleman and treat the three beautiful adjutants to have something to eat. While walking in the passage to the restaurant, he
His joking personality prevents him from letting his mouth rest easily.
Provoking three women like this is definitely not a smart move.
"Yes, General, many female soldiers who like mature soldiers told me that you are their idol. I never quite understood it, but now I understand!"
Apparently the joke was too deep, and Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr., who was already struggling with his brain due to lack of rest, didn't realize it.
"Is that so? Remember, you can't tell my wife about this, it's very dangerous!"
His reaction made the two adjutants giggle. It seemed that joking with the officer was a good break when not on duty.
"Yeah, if those girls like wrinkles, you can definitely give them lots of them!"
"Or on your next birthday, I can consider giving you a few slices of cucumber. You know it will be effective if you slap it on your face. Of course, your expectations don't have to be too high. After all, if the foundation is too bad, even if
There has been some improvement, but it’s quite limited!”
This time, Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. understood, but he really didn't have the energy to argue with these three women at the moment.
"Okay, okay, I am an old man, and I admit that this is a cruel thing. But I am a gentleman, and I hope this is also true!"
Responding to the joke casually, Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey, acting like a gentleman, pulled out the chairs for the three adjutants. They all ordered some food at will. It seemed that they were interested in sleep.
Desire exceeds the satisfaction of hunger.
It is a pity that when they sleep thousands of miles away, the naval staff officers in the General Staff Headquarters of the Chinese Federation - Xingtian Mansion, have the same view.
"I thought it was possible, and I sorted the information we received. You gentlemen should see that from the beginning of the war, they had no chance to breathe. Submarine attacks, air attacks, the landing group's calls for help, torpedo attacks, and so on.
There were rocket attacks. I think when the air squadron of the Seventh Fleet was involved in the battle on Guadalcanal, they would not have much time to rest!"
The officer who came out to speak with the information sounded a little smug. But when he went to check the information, someone here had already concluded his thinking.
"This is a problem with the US military's command system. The troops originally responsible for naval battles were involved in ground battles. That's why this problem arises. If it is not solved, it will be a major issue for the deployment of the entire US Pacific operations.
A disaster. Especially when he is still serving as the commander of the air battleship fleet, this is even more true!"
When the naval officers began to prepare a new battle plan, they could not help but pay their highest respect to the father of the navy, Duke Luckner, who had reminded them of this and did not know how he could think of such a thing.

———————————————————————————————————— Convert a kind of thinking into a combat plan, for computer-aided
Systematically, it was really not a difficult task for the staff officers of the General Staff of the Chinese Federation. Therefore, when their plans were converted into radio waves, the Pacific Theater became even more lively.
Just when Vice Admiral William Frederick Halsey Jr. and his three female aides were joking about each other's bad looks, someone didn't want him to sleep.
"Oh my god, do you...let us launch an attack now?"
Leading the Japanese naval fleet, Nagumo Chuichi, who had always managed to stay outside the reconnaissance range of the US military, was surprised when faced with the order given to him.
Since the beginning of this battle, he has faced many surprises. He did not know where the Imperial Navy's intelligence came from, so that his fighter planes could find the US fleet without being attacked by the US fleet.
During the first attack, which did not yield much results, he thought that the US military would dispatch carrier-based aircraft to retaliate. However, to his surprise, the US fleet seemed to have lost the ability to conduct reconnaissance.
Even if they send out a reconnaissance plane, the Imperial Naval Intelligence Department will come up with the exact location and ask him to send people to intercept it. And their eagle eyes, chased by Batavia's Seraph fighter attack aircraft,
He had no choice but to stay far away from where he could find Nagumo Chuichi's fleet.
This completely confused him, and he realized that if the naval battle went like this, then the course of the war would have to be rewritten.
"Is it because of them? Did they get some newer reconnaissance equipment from the Chinese Federation?"
He looked out of the porthole, and there was Batavia's naval fleet. They were only responsible for air defense missions, which was much easier than the Japanese navy. Thinking of the new reconnaissance equipment, he couldn't help but feel a little bitter.
Although Japan occupies a major position in the South Asian Military Alliance, and even in the Pacific War, Japan paid the highest price. However, the Chinese Federation does not like Japan, and most of the latest equipment is in the hands of Vietnam or Batavia.
"We want our flight team to launch a night attack, and use two fighter squadrons to cover the small-scale attacks of two bomber squadrons. Based on these, prepare for continuous attacks...!"
When Nagumo Chuichi issued this order, he was a little worried. The attack fleet, which had been sailing in secret, might be discovered by the U.S. Navy fleet. If that was the case, they might have to face more than 1,000 Americans.
Fighter siege.
