Hu Zhiyong did not stay in the Far East, but took a special plane to Hainan the next day. After getting off the plane and walking to the beautiful Taiping Island, he first sent a telegram to Yinlong: "Stop selling any supplies and weapons to island countries, and it is strictly prohibited for island countries to
Any ship appears within 200 nautical miles of nearby waters!"
Yinlong received the telegram, and Fang Zhenwu said: "The young master is going to be cruel to the little devil!"
"Humph, if it were me, I would have led my troops to kill the mainland of the island country!" Fang Zhenwu felt so happy. It had been three years since he was rescued by Hu Zhiyong from Chahar. In these three years, every moment
I didn’t forget to settle the score with the little devil!
"The war seems to be getting further and further away from us!" Yinlong smiled mischievously, deliberately making Fang Zhenwu happy.
"How to provoke generals?" Fang Zhenwu smiled: "I am no longer the angry young man I used to be. I know what is important and what is important. Hong Kong is responsible for the supply of materials to mainland China and the South China Sea channel. This responsibility is heavy enough."
"Hahahaha!" Yinlong laughed and said seriously: "With Aji and Awen here, our air force, tank troops and artillery will have no problem defending Hong Kong! Please be more careful, I'm going to Hainan Island to visit
lively!"
"What?" Fang Zhenwu was startled: "You want to go to Hainan Island privately?"
"Report!" Outside the door, the communications section chief shouted loudly, as if his voice was very anxious.
"Come in!" Yinlong felt strange. His subordinates were never surprised. Could something have happened?
"Young master called, Hong Kong is facing the South China Sea, and there is a possibility of a Japanese attack in Taiwan. Order the troops and prepare for battle!" The communications section chief came in, shouted Hu Zhiyong's order, and handed the message to the island defense commander with both hands.
"Got it!" Yinlong sat down frustrated and waved his hand to order the communications section chief to leave.
"Hey, the Third Young Master seems to have guessed your mentality!" Fang Zhenwu smiled. After receiving this telegram, Yinlong never dared to go to the South China Sea again.
"The little Japanese really dare to attack Hong Kong?" Yinlong did not think that Hu Zhiyong wanted to stabilize him, but thought nervously while holding the telegram.
"Maybe." Only then did Fang Zhenwu pay attention. He stood up quickly and said, "Order all of Hong Kong to be on alert. Don't be careless and let the dog agents carry out a sneak attack."
"Yes, be prepared, we can't cause any problems here!" Yinlong also stood up, picked up the phone and issued orders to the troops.
Taiping Island Headquarters is hidden in the lush jungle. It is on the right side by the water, with tall and dense tropical vegetation on its back. It is a three-story European-style building with various cables densely installed.
At the top of the room is a new digital high-frequency radar. The wavelength is about two meters, which monitors maritime and air detection day and night. In the headquarters hall, on the right side of the door is a full-color display screen, which displays Taiping Island 400
Movement in any corner of the sea.
Outside the headquarters, Hu Zhiyong's guard companies are scattered in every corner, and even snipers are ambushing tall trees. A unique row of stairs leads to the seaside, where two missile speedboats, two torpedo speedboats and a destroyer are on board.
The soldiers are in their positions, ready to attack at any time!
Liang Chengfu and Huang Jinshan are all here, as if waiting for some news. The personnel of the Operations Section, Communications Section, and Information Station are walking briskly, constantly shuttling back and forth in the headquarters.
"Young Master, the Japanese navy has been mobilized rapidly, and it seems that it is really going to war with the Americans." Liang Chengfu finally couldn't bear the loneliness, and gently asked Hu Zhiyong, who seemed to be concentrating with his eyes closed.
"It's very possible!" Hu Zhiyong is not too sure now. Because since he came to the Republic of China, it seems that material relations have not had much to do with the Western superpowers. What he wants to guard against is not a war between the little devils and the Americans, but a war between the little devils and the Americans.
Start a fight with him first!
Jeju Island, Ryukyu, Palau, Phoenix, Hong Kong and Hainan were in the hands of Hu Zhiyong, which caused the Japanese military's strategic defense posture in the Pacific to seriously deteriorate. The "absolute defense circle" stipulated by the island country's base camp was facing collapse due to the loss of the core area.
Materials can no longer enter the island country.
"Report, a total of six Japanese aircraft carriers, "Akagi", "Kaga", "Soryu", "Hiryu", and Shokaku and Zuikaku, have gathered in the Philippine Sea. A large number of warships, supply ships and submarines are gathering!
"The intelligence section chief took the information sent from various places and reported to the three commanders.
"It's finally here!" Hu Zhiyong breathed a sigh of relief. The little Japs were still going to carry out a sneak attack on the US military.
"Haha, doesn't the little devil know that we are his biggest enemies?" Huang Jinshan seemed to be very dissatisfied with the lack of a fight.
"Nanyang is a colony of the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States, which adds difficulties to the island country's plan to go south. The United States has frozen trade with Japan, and the island country's oil can only last for half a year. Hirohito understands that he must either withdraw his troops from China,
Stop external expansion and move closer to the United States diplomatically. Or form your own flag, go south to seize strategic resources, and continue to strengthen foreign aggression."
Hu Zhiyong explained the reasons, but was impressed by the arrogance of the Japanese army.
"Don't he know that fighting the United States will eventually fail?" Huang Jinshan was surprised. Even if a preemptive attack was successful, it would be difficult to stop the powerful national power of the US military!
"The purpose of the attack on Pearl Harbor was to eliminate the main force of the U.S. Navy in the Pacific. Isoroku Yamamoto, the planner of the attack on Pearl Harbor plan, believed that a successful attack would only bring strategic advantage for about a year."
Hu Zhiyong smiled and continued: "If we start a war with the powerful United States and Britain and are confident of winning, we must attack suddenly, pre-emptively, and collapse the other side at the beginning of the war. After the Americans suffer losses, they will send their foreign minister to sue for peace.
"
"Hahahaha, this is called stealing the chicken but losing the rice!" Liang Chengfu laughed, the days when the little devil will be rampant will not be long!
In the palace of the island country, the government and the base camp were arguing fiercely. Emperor Hirohito sat calmly and personally presided over the imperial war meeting. Foreign Minister Matsuoka Hiroshi shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Germany's attack on the Soviet Union, let the Eastern Defense Line
All troops will be mobilized. If we bypass Yakutsk from the Sea of Okhotsk, we can obtain 3.1032 million square kilometers of territory and various resources without using force!"
Matsui ignored everyone's opposition and still sang the tune of advancing northward. Many people thought it was reasonable, but they were afraid of the cold Yakutia. Chief of Army Staff Bin Sanyuan asked coldly: "The Soviet troops dare to withdraw, which proves that peace
The Chinese people in the Far East have an agreement. Can you guarantee that after we occupy Yakutia, the hateful Chinese people will not take action against us?"
"Yes!" A very important reason why Hirohito's imperial power has remained so strong is because of his unfathomable "non-revelation". Everything my subordinates say is reasonable. Even if they argue over it, I still rely on you to buy my life!
"We have a powerful navy, seize Southeast Asia and use the rich resources there to support war. The United States' hesitation and fear of the outbreak of the Pacific War give us the opportunity to compete with the United States, Britain and France for hegemony!"
Prime Minister Konoe stood up and spoke eloquently: "Separating the Indian Ocean from the Pacific Ocean will also bring a heavy blow to China's economy!"
"yes!"
"What the prime minister said is true."
"Prime Minister, please make a decision, we will not hesitate to fight to the death with the US military!"
The venue was abuzz, with many demanding the implementation of the southward advance plan. Seeing that the powerful faction advocating the southward advance had the upper hand, Songgang and others remained silent and couldn't help thinking.
"Since all colleagues here have no objections, I will read out the decision of the meeting!"
Konoe looked around and pretended to be solemn as he took out the document he had prepared: "In order to obtain the rich strategic resources in Southeast Asia, the empire will insist on the southward expansion plan. In short!"
The Konoe stood up and said: "In order to achieve the goal of expanding to the south, we will not hesitate to fight with Britain and the United States and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor to the death!"
Konoe's passionate words made the military and political officials' blood boil. They all stood up and solemnly shouted: "Path of loyalty to the Emperor to the death, even at the risk of a decisive battle with Britain and the United States!"
Hirohito was so excited that he waved the wide sleeves of his coat and said: "Give the Americans a challenge. The battle begins at Pearl Harbor!"
"Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live the Empire!"
The fanatical militarists and militants shouted loudly in the palace. They knew that the Pacific War would break out at this moment!
Yamamoto Isoroku is a standard gambler. He regards gambling and games of chance as more important than food. He is an expert at playing poker, bridge, Go, and betting. He bets with his colleagues and competes with his subordinates.
Gambling, and often gambling with geisha, and gambling seriously.
When he 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 Moroccan casinos. He was the second banned gambler in Morocco. Yamamoto once said that if the emperor could give him a year
If you have time to gamble, you can win back a "Yamato" battleship for the island country.
He formulated the plan to attack Pearl Harbor. After the formal plan was put forward, it caused controversy among the upper echelons of Japan. Some people did not believe that a huge fleet could cross 3,500 nautical miles without being discovered, and expressed doubts about the feasibility of this plan. Yamamoto was stubborn.
, and even threatened to resign.
Finally, he waited for the telegram order sent by the Prime Minister. Isoroku Yamamoto stood up quickly and picked up the command radio transmitter on the ship: "The commander of the air strike force is Vice Admiral Nagumo Chuichi. Your mission is
Carrier-based aircraft were dispatched to attack the U.S. battleships and aircraft carriers anchored in Pearl Harbor."
"Hayi!"
"The commander of the security force is Rear Admiral Sentaro Omori, commander of the First Destroyer Fleet, who is responsible for providing security for the air strike force and supply force."
"Hayi!"
"The commander of the support force is Lieutenant General Mikawa Junichi, commander of the third team, who is responsible for providing support for the air strike force, mainly against large surface warships of the US military."
ps: Thank you for your support. It’s almost the end of the month, let’s enjoy the flowers!
"Hayi!"
"The attack was launched in the early morning of December 7, 1941, and the operation code was [Tiger, Tiger, Tiger]!"
