Ouyang Yun looked at the time and found that it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. He frowned and said, "Can't we talk about it tomorrow? It's already so late."
Chen Hanlin was ill, and it was quite serious, so Chen Jiayao had to go to Guangzhou to take care of her. However, Xiao Min was a bit naive and didn't even recognize Pan Meiren, whom he often saw. So it fell to Ouyang Yun to take care of her. , this is also the fundamental reason why Ouyang Yun refused to work overtime during this period. He said to Xiao Min: "Xiao Min, dad has something to do, you take your time and leave it alone if you don't know how."
Xiao Min was very sensible, so she just asked him to come back early, picked up a coat and went straight out. Before getting in the car, he told Chen Xiaolian to take good care of Xiao Min. After getting in the car, he asked Pan Meiren: "What happened?"
Pan Meiren was actually quite concerned about Xiao Min's disapproval of her third mother. However, she was very clear about Xiao Min's status in Ouyang Yun's mind, so she would not be too persistent in this matter to bring trouble to herself. "The British blocked it." the Gibraltar Waterway and the Suez Canal.”
"What..." Ouyang Yun's brows immediately rose.
Ouyang Yun rushed to the Supreme Command immediately after receiving the notice, but he was still the last one to arrive. When he arrived, He Yingqin, Li Tieshu, Feng Yuxiang, Li Zongren, Deng Xihou and others had been talking for a long time, and rarely there was no dispute.
Truman appointed Nimitz, the former commander of the Atlantic Fleet, as the new commander of the Pacific Fleet, and directly transferred the main aircraft carriers from the Atlantic Fleet as the team to rebuild the new Pacific Fleet. In this regard, even in the previous confrontation, the Chinese Pacific Fleet achieved Although they have achieved a complete victory, no one dares to take it lightly. In the final analysis, the foundation of the Chinese navy is too weak, and there is a considerable gap between the shipbuilding industry and the old industrial powers. Therefore, the Americans can fight repeatedly, but China has not Unable to withstand even one failure, the situation between China and the United States is actually similar to the situation between the United States and Japan at that time and space. That is, although Japan once achieved absolute superiority in the Pacific, it only experienced one naval battle at Midway. , as a result, not only did they give up the advantages they had previously gained, but they also lost the possibility of a comeback.
Compared with Japan at that time and space, China's current situation is even worse, because the Chinese navy now has more opponents than the United Kingdom and Japan.
The British Far East Fleet has arrived in Warrnambool, Australia, and has begun final training there. The latest information China has obtained about this fleet is that when the Chinese aircraft carrier fleet Wu Dao Tian Wang just entered the Indian Ocean, Churchill originally intended for this fleet to intercept, but ultimately chose to give up because of Nimitz's suggestion.
One-on-one, the British Far East Fleet is not enough to pose a fatal threat. However, once the Americans and British join forces, coupled with the Japanese special attack submarines and special attack torpedo units, even Ouyang Yun feels that this will be The biggest test since the formation of China's Pacific Fleet.
It was thought that the United States and Japan would launch a counterattack on the Malay Peninsula. As a result, the reinforcements had already begun adaptive training in Vietnam, but the US and Japanese armies were slow to take action. As the British Far East Fleet assembled in Australia, the United States, Britain and Japan first wanted to regain control of the Pacific Ocean. Quan's strategic intentions have become obvious. Under this new situation, although no one deliberately pointed out to prove Ouyang Yun's early strategic mistakes, Ouyang Yun had this consciousness and knew that he had been too arbitrary on strategic issues before. This is also He used the fundamental reason why Xiao Min needed someone to take care of her and give up some power.
The Three Stooges are better than Zhuge Liang, He Yingqin, Li Tieshu, Li Zongren, and Deng Xihou. Any one of them has a considerable overall view. Moreover, with Feng Yuxiang beating the drum beside him, Ouyang Yun really has nothing to worry about. However, from today's From the situation, it seems that he still overestimated the adaptability of this "***".
"I have to say that the British made a good move. The Egyptian side has confirmed that the Suez Canal has lost its navigability due to too many shipwrecks." Seeing Ouyang Yun, Li Tieshu immediately came up and said.
"There is no way at all." Ouyang Yun glanced at everyone and asked.
Everyone shook their heads with heavy expressions.
Ouyang Yun took out his cigarettes, lit one, then lay down in front of the map and began to carefully check the map.
Ouyang Yun was actually just pretending to do this. He had already memorized the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding terrain. He did this just to buy himself some time to think.
His mind was spinning rapidly, and finally, his right index finger pointed at the name of Cairo, Egypt, and ordered: "Measure the straight-line distance from Karachi to Cairo!"
Li Tieshu personally took a ruler. Soon, he looked up from the map and said: "The straight-line distance is about 900 kilometers." As expected of Ouyang Yun's old partner, in just a moment, he had already understood Ouyang's understanding. Yun Yun's intentions, then said: "With the range of the air fortress, it is fully capable of carrying out transportation tasks. However, Britain and the United States will definitely not let us establish an advance base in Cairo."
"Then beat him, my God, I will let the British have a taste of shooting themselves in the foot this time."
Li Tieshu frowned and asked: "What should we do in the Pacific? Without the six aircraft carriers and several escort ships of the Wu Dao Tianwang aircraft carrier fleet, the combat effectiveness of the Pacific Fleet has been reduced by at least one-third, and it no longer has dominance."
"The Pacific Fleet adopts a contraction strategy first, no, maybe we take the opportunity to capture Hawaii."
Among the others, Li Zongren was the first to understand. He continued: "Hawaii is the heart of the Americans in the Pacific. If we really do this, the Americans will definitely be restrained, and the Japanese special attack troops will not be able to sail far. Let Chen Shichang increase the intensity of bombing the island of Great Britain so that the British Far East Fleet cannot stay in the Pacific with peace of mind. In that case, our only opponent will actually be the United States, which is completely feasible."
When Li Zongren said this, others also realized it. He Yingqin said: "Then we must hurry up to establish the forward base in Cairo. We must take action before the United States, Britain and Japan launch an active attack."
Deng Xihou: "The British wanted to trap the aircraft carrier Wu Daotianwang in the Mediterranean by blocking the waterway, but this time they trapped an evil dragon at their doorstep. Haha, the commander-in-chief's move was so clever."
Ouyang Yun smiled coldly and said, "The British brought this upon themselves."
Feng Yuxiang also burst out laughing and said, "The British brought it on themselves, haha."
