Age of Conquest Reborn

Right next to Le Yiqin, hearing him talking to himself, Colonel He Yuheng, the director of the Group Operations Department, said with some concern: "Commander, it is absolutely true to shoot down the Japanese fighter jets. Even if the Japanese fighter jets did not cross the border and saw it, it would still be wrong."

We can't let it go, but there are five American fighter jets among them. You also know that we are now with the Americans, and they are still allied forces on the surface. Will doing this cause big trouble? Furthermore, how to report to the division headquarters

Report?"

When Colonel He Yuheng raised this issue, Le Yiqin scratched his head with a tangled look on his face. Previously, the division commander had repeatedly warned himself that all planes should stay away from the Luzon battlefield. But now, he not only took action, but also brought the United States to the battlefield.

It's quite difficult to shoot down five of our fighter jets at the same time. Who knows what the division commander will do when he learns about it? If he were to be transferred to serve as a staff officer to the division commander, he would be miserable to death!

It is impossible not to report such a big thing. After struggling for a while, Le Yiqin said to He Yuheng: "Old He, report the truth to the division headquarters. However, you have to emphasize in the report that it is the little devil and

Yankee's War

The fighter jets violated our country's airspace and refused to withdraw even after repeated warnings. The Japs' fighter jets even opened fire on our patrol fleet. We were forced to defend ourselves. During the melee, we also killed the Yankee fighter jets.

Got it!"

Colonel He Yuheng grinned and said: "Commander, is this okay? Why do I sound like I'm arrogant! I think it's a big deal to fool the division commander!"

Le Yiqin said with a headache: "If you don't report it like this, what can you say? Do you have a good idea?" He Yuheng shook his head. He looked helpless, seeing that the commander had no other instructions. He turned to leave, and his own burden was too heavy.

It’s not trivial. Based on the commander’s wishes, the report must be processed and polished to make it as true as possible!

"Wait a minute, Lao He!" Le Yiqin suddenly stopped him and added: "The report must be handed over to Chief of Staff Zhao first!"

He Yuheng looked at Le Yiqin in confusion, and Le Yiqin said with some hatred: "Why are you so stupid! Chief of Staff Zhao is easy to talk to. Besides, the report will be handed over to the division commander by the chief of staff, and we will personally

Hand in hand, it’s two different things! Do you understand?”

Colonel He Yuheng suddenly realized it, stretched out his thumb, and said sincerely: "High! Commander, your move is called a roundabout tactic. It avoids directly facing the division commander's firepower, high!" After saying that, Le Dianding went to do it.

At ten o'clock in the morning on August 13, in the office building of the Singapore Military Control Commission in Indochina, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, Major General, was still holding a stack of intelligence about the Luzon battlefield. He delivered it to the desk of division commander Tang Qiuli on time.

Above, since August 10, when the Japanese army began to attack the U.S. Third Army on Luzon Island, it has been like this every day for four days. The battle situation on Luzon Island has developed step by step according to the division commander's prejudgment.

Sometimes, Zhao Yuhe couldn't help but have some strange thoughts flash through his mind, "The division commander's judgment of the battle situation has reached an almost magical level, or in other words, he is a monster. Often with an insignificant piece of information, he can

He can infer the basic direction and final result of the entire war situation, as if he is the commander of the Japanese and American troops. He seems to be aware of many things that are impossible to happen or occur. If he can reach the level of division commander ten

What would it look like to be at one-third the level?”

Along the way, Zhao Yuhe was thinking about it, and knocked on the door gently, "Come in!" A calm voice came from inside, and when he opened the door of the teacher's office, Tang Qiuli was reading a book attentively.

Zhao Yuhe came in and said with a smile: "Yuhe, the battle in Luzon Island has come to an end today!"

Zhao Yuhe replied without surprise: "Yes, division commander, at 4:30 this morning, the Japanese army launched a full-line attack on the U.S. Third Army's defense line in the Calais Mountains. After that, two U.S. Air Force fighter jets and

About 800 bombers were deployed to cover the U.S. second-line troops in launching a counterattack. At about 6 o'clock, two U.S. air forces were ambushed by the superior force of the Japanese air force in the Babuyan Strait airspace and the Lingayen Gulf airspace.

Overturned."

"Subsequently, the U.S. counterattack force, which had lost its air fire cover, immediately fell into the segmented encirclement of the superior Japanese forces at the first line of defense. Until the intelligence office sent the intelligence, the battle in the Calais Mountains was still going on fiercely.

However, according to various signs, the encircled U.S. Third Army cannot sustain it for long. Division Commander, the result of the battle is as you expected. Ito Yanzaburo’s purpose is to eliminate the U.S. military’s air power!”

Tang Qiuli smiled and said without surprise: "All battles have their own rules to follow. Ito Yanzaburo finally closed the net. The results of this net are quite fruitful. All of MacArthur's aircraft and the entire First Army were taken away."

The three armies have all eaten it. At this moment, MacArthur should be in a state of distress, and the British and Australian troops should also take action, right?"

Zhao Yuhe was impressed and said: "Commander, you have told me again. According to the information from the Intelligence Department, 100,000 reinforcements from the British and Australian troops are being assembled urgently. It is expected that they will arrive at the Luzon battlefield in a week.

,Teacher, I’m a little bit dissatisfied

Understand that the control of the sea in the southwest Pacific is in the hands of the Japanese navy. Can the reinforced British and Australian troops successfully reach the battlefield of Luzon Island? If the Japanese naval fleet intercepts and kills 100,000 British and Australian soldiers in the middle, wouldn't it be natural?

Entering the tiger's mouth?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head and said: "Yuhe, the Japanese naval fleet will never intercept and kill the British and Australian troops on their way to reinforce the battlefield of Luzon Island. Otherwise, Ito Yanzaburo would not spend so much effort to fight with

MacArthur had finished his cat-and-mouse trick. The Japanese army was not incapable of quickly destroying MacArthur's troops and taking over Luzon Island. The Japanese's ultimate goal was to capture Australia."

"Ito Genzaburo's series of tricks and traps on Luzon Island were all designed to mobilize the British-Australian troops in Australia and clear obstacles for the attack on Australia. Even if the Japanese navy wanted to intercept and kill them midway, the Japanese army would not

I will agree that the interception and killing should occur when the Japanese army begins to attack Australia, MacArthur knows that there is no hope of holding on to Manila, and the remaining US-Philippine troops and British-Australian troops return to support Australia!"

Having said this, Tang Qiuli suddenly shook his head and said: "This is something that will happen in the future. The war between the Americans and the Japanese for the Southwest Pacific has entered a new stage. The Battle of Manila will be the focus in the future.

Those of us who were watching the show, although we stayed out of the action and did not participate, were still nervous for a while. During this time, everyone was busy surrounding the Battle of Calais Mountains, but fortunately, there was no problem at all!"

Zhao Yuhe suddenly smiled bitterly, hesitated, and said, "Sir, it's not that simple. A little accident happened on our side!"

Tang Qiuli was stunned for a moment. Countless judgments and possibilities flashed through his mind, and he asked: "What is a small accident? Please make it clearer!"

Zhao Yuhe replied: "Commander, the situation is like this. At about 7 o'clock this morning, five US military fighter jets escaped from the air combat battlefield on Luzon Island, crossed the South China Sea, and flew to the airspace of the Zhongsha Islands. They were chasing after them.

The U.S. pilots, who were chased by twelve Japanese fighter jets and had no way out, requested an emergency landing at our Yulin Naval and Air Force Base on Hainan Island. As a result, an unexpected episode occurred!"

Tang Qiuli asked in confusion: "How did Le Yiqin and the others handle it? Did the US military plane crash accidentally when it made an emergency landing, or did the Japanese fighter jets attack us?"

Zhao Yuhe shook his head and said: "None of them, division commander. The third battalion of the 9th Fighter Regiment, which performs air patrol missions, according to Commander Le's order, will remove all seventeen U.S. and Japanese fighter jets that entered our border."

It was shot down, the air battle only took less than thirty minutes, and we lost no one!"

Tang Qiuli held his head and almost groaned in pain, "This Le Yiqin is really a troublemaker. It is understandable to shoot down the Japanese fighter jets, but why do you have to shoot down the American fighter jets too? No matter what

Say, are you still an ally? Don’t you have brains? This is not the case! It will only cause trouble, and you will almost go crazy thinking about war!"

Mentally scolding Le Yiqin, Tang Qiuli asked Zhao Yuhe with a guilty conscience, "Yuhe, did the Americans lodge a serious protest? Or is that MacArthur guy using this to make a big fuss?"

Zhao Yuhe shook his head and replied: "None of them. So far, there has been no response from the Americans. Maybe they don't know that five fighter jets were shot down by us. In addition, there is no response from the Japanese."

Any reaction, division commander, my opinion is that since it is the US military and Japanese fighter jets that trespass into our airspace, whether they are allies or enemies, it can be regarded as a violation of our airspace. What Commander Le did,

But consider it a normal defense, nothing wrong!"

Seeing the tangled look on his teacher's face, Zhao Yuhe was afraid that the teacher would severely punish Le Yiqin, so he hurriedly explained and excused him. From the bottom of his heart, he very much agreed with Le Yiqin's approach. If it were him, he might do the same.

Do!

Tang Qiuli thought about it carefully, and suddenly burst into laughter and said: "This guy Le Yiqin can be regarded as a small bargain. Since MacArthur didn't make a big fuss and use the opportunity to blackmail, we can't make noises all over the world.

, tell Le Yiqin, this matter ends here, don’t show off everywhere, submit a report, it will be useless, the third battalion of the 9th Fighter Regiment, no criticism or praise!"

After thinking about it, Tang Qiuli added: "If the United States pursues this matter, tell Mei Xue and tell the Americans on behalf of the division headquarters that there is absolutely no such thing! If I refuse to admit it, what can the Americans do to me?

You, as chief of staff, police

Tell Le Yiqin to stop causing trouble! This guy is not a straightforward person. He has learned to use roundabout tactics to avoid his sharp edges. He is afraid that I will teach him a lesson and does not dare to report the situation to me. Instead, I will report it to you first.

Chief of Staff!"
