Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 3045 escaped the catastrophe

"The Intelligence Office has intercepted messages from the Japanese Navy. Admiral Chuichi Nagumo, the new commander of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet, will fly to the headquarters of Honiara in the Solomon Islands on the morning of July 27 to preside over a military meeting.

!" This is the entire content of the intelligence. There is no doubt that it is another masterpiece of Bai Luoyu's intelligence analysis center. △¢

"Hahaha! Stay!" Le Yiqin's eyes suddenly lit up after reading the telegram. She also forgot that she was in the teacher's office. She shouted, and then hurriedly said to Tang Qiuli: "Sir, another one.

A good deal comes to your doorstep. We just killed that old devil Yamamoto. This time, the old devil Chuichi Nagumo is at the gunpoint again. Leave it to our Southern Flying Group!"

"Is this what you are thinking about intercepting Nanyun Zhongyi again?" Tang Qiuli raised his eyes and looked at Le Yiqin, and said indifferently.

Le Yiqin's eyes widened and he said in confusion: "Sir, what else can you think about? Can you not eat the fat meat that is brought to your lips? First kill the old Japanese Yamamoto, and then kill the old Japanese Nagumo Chuichi.

The little devil’s combined fleet is leaderless!”

"Forget it, the purpose of showing you this information is to tell you that Nagumo Chuichi has assumed the position of commander of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet!" Tang Qiuli said helplessly: "It's not to ask you to intercept Nagumo again.

Chuichi, keeping Nagumo Chuichi is more effective than intercepting and killing him, do you understand?"

"Oh!" Le Yiqin was so disappointed, his eyelids drooped, and he looked listless, and said honestly: "I don't understand! If you don't kill Nagumo Chuichi, then the division commander has asked me to come to me, do you have any new tasks?

"

Tang Qiuli looked at Le Yiqin quite speechlessly. How to explain to him the purpose of doing this is really not something that can be explained in a few sentences. So he simply did not explain and said: "I came to see you. I have something.

Very important things need you to do!"

After hearing what the teacher said, Le Yiqin's spiritual leader came again, "Sir, where are the little devils attacking?"

Tang Qiuli was speechless again. Probably in Le Yiqin's heart, there was nothing else but fighting, "Yiqin. In this long-distance interception and killing of Isoroku Yamamoto, the new fighter jet played a key role. Do you think this

Can this new type of fighter jet assist the naval fleet in fighting in distant seas?" He said in a consultative tone.

"Of course!" Speaking of the new fighter jet used to ambush Yamamoto Isoroku this time, Le Yiqin was extremely satisfied. "Commander, there is nothing to say in terms of combat radius and combat performance. Just take Iri

Considering the location of the Andao Field Airport, the combat radius of the aircraft fleet can cover the airspace around the Marshall Islands!"

"How many new fighter jets of this kind are equipped by the Southern Flying Group?" Tang Qiuli said calmly as Le Yiqin tried his best to praise her.

"Not many. Five fighter regiments, less than 400 aircraft!" These figures were in his mind. Le Yiqin opened his mouth, and then complained: "Commander, it is still too few, can you give it to me?"

Give this order to the Logistics Department. No matter what, you must equip me with more than ten regiments. If there are more than 700 new fighter jets like this, I dare to fight against the Japanese combined fleet!"

"Oh, since you are so sure, you can't be wrong!" Tang Qiuli looked at Le Yiqin, who was a little fanciful, and said calmly: "After careful study and decision by the instructor, the five new fighter jets equipped by the Southern Flying Group

From now on, the regiment will be changed to a land-based aviation brigade directly under the Navy's Southern Fleet, and its organization and combat order will be placed under the command of the Fleet Headquarters. Do you have any objections?"

"What? What?" Le Yiqin jumped up suddenly as if she was sitting on the soldering iron. Just about to get angry, she saw the teacher's eyes staring at her. She suddenly withered and said pitifully: "Sir, sir,

You can't do this. These new fighter jets are still warm in my hands, so why are they given to the fleet? You can't change your mind?"

"It cannot be changed. This is the decision of the commander!" Tang Qiuli suppressed a smile and said with a serious face: "I'm so petty, can I tell you more in the future? After you go back, immediately report the personnel and equipment to Commander Tang of the fleet.

Handover, I'm warning you, don't lay an ambush or make any small moves!"

Seeing that the established facts could not be changed, Le Yiqin replied unhappily: "Yes, Commander, resolutely carry out the order!" Before leaving, he muttered, "You are biased, do I dare to lay an ambush!"

Seeing the dejected Le Yiqin walking away, Tang Qiuli smiled and shook his head. In fact, in his heart, it was not that he had not considered killing Nan Yun Zhongyi again. After seeing the intelligence, he repeatedly weighed the pros and cons. There were two

point, prompting him to give up the idea.

First of all, compared with Yamamoto Isoroku, Nagumo Chuichi is far different in terms of command ability and tactical vision. His cautious and indecisive command style often misses the best fighter opportunities. This person is in charge of the Japanese Navy.

The seal of command of the Combined Fleet was the beginning of the decline and collapse of the Combined Fleet. The historical Battle of Midway between the Japanese and American navies fully exposed the serious flaws in Nagumo Chuichi's command style.

It can be said that during this period, among all the generals of the Japanese Navy, the only one who Tang Qiuli was afraid of and who had to get rid of him first and then quickly was Yamamoto Isoroku. This person is going to be the greatest force of the Japanese Navy.

——There is nothing to fear from the combined fleet!

In addition, giving up the idea of ​​intercepting and killing Nagumo Chuichi is also related to the conversation with Le Yiqin just now. In Tang Qiuli's plan, a new land-based fighter with a combat radius that can cover almost the entire Southwest Pacific is a secret.

Weapons, the current strength of the independent division fleet, it is definitely no match against the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet alone, even if Chuichi Nagumo is in charge of the Combined Fleet, he will not be able to do it!

No matter in terms of the number of aircraft carriers, carrier-based aircraft and main battleships, neither side is in the same weight class. Therefore, the newly reorganized fleet directly under the land-based aviation brigade will be a weapon for victory in future naval battles. It cannot be used to intercept and kill South Korea.

Yun Zhongyi exposed his trump card. Of course, the direct brigade in the future will definitely expand in size. A fleet with an aircraft carrier as its core, without carrier-based aircraft, will be a toothless tiger and a sick cat!

Two days later, General Nagumo Chudai, who was sitting on a large transport plane under the escort of two brigades of fighter jets, was rushing to Honiara with great ambition and excitement. He had no idea that he had escaped a disaster.

Because his ability is not as good as Yamamoto Isoroku, if he knew that he had lived a few more years because of this, would he be so angry that he committed suicide?

Regarding dispatching two brigades of fighter jets to escort him, Admiral Nagumo Chuichi believed that the Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet, Lieutenant General Matsuda, was definitely making a fuss out of a molehill. The route from Tokyo to Honiara is very safe. Is there any need to mobilize such forces?

?

Little did he know that when the Combined Fleet Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Matsuda, received a telegram that the new commander, Admiral Nagumo Chuichi, would also fly to Honiara, he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. If possible, he would

I tried my best to dissuade the new commander, Your Excellency, from taking a boat by sea, which is safer than flying by plane. Admiral Yamamoto died on this seemingly safe route.

From the base camp to the Navy Department, the news of Admiral Yamamoto's death was strictly blocked. Lieutenant General Matsuda himself received a direct warning from the Navy Minister, Admiral Nagano Shuzo, that he could not speak against Commander Yamamoto yet.

In desperation, he could only send more escort troops, and in the name of the Combined Fleet Command, he asked the land-based aviation units of the Army Defense Zone along the route to protect Admiral Nagumo's plane along the way.

Lieutenant General Matsuda had not been tempted by the position of Commander of the Combined Fleet, but after weighing his qualifications and background, he gave up the idea. Now, Lieutenant General Matsuda and the senior officers of the Combined Fleet Command,

As well as the commanders and chiefs of staff of each fleet, more than a hundred generals were at Honiara Airport, looking eagerly at the northern sky.

Lieutenant General Matsuda was worried. Commander Yamamoto's death had made him a little nervous. Next to him, a communications soldier carrying a radio on his back spoke to the escorting fighter commander every twenty minutes to determine the south direction.

Commander Cloud's security.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Nagumo Chuichi's plane and escort aircraft appeared in the sight of Lieutenant General Matsuda and a group of senior officers. Lieutenant General Matsuda's heart dropped back into his stomach.

The fleet landed smoothly, and the door of a large transport plane was opened. Admiral Nagumo Tadashi, who was full of energy and glowing in a brand-new navy general uniform, stepped off the plane surrounded by several staff officers.

Chief of Staff Matsuda hurriedly stepped forward to greet you, stood at attention and saluted, "Your Excellency, Commander, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet, Jiro Matsuda, has led all the senior officers of the fleet to greet you. You have been working hard on your journey!"

Lieutenant General Matsuda was not very familiar with his new immediate boss. When Nagumo Chuichi was defeated in the Battle of Midway, Lieutenant General Matsuda at that time had not yet served as the chief of staff of the combined fleet. He was in the Saga Navy on Kyushu Island.

As the principal of the school, the two of them didn't have many interactions. They both belonged to the same naval department and had only heard of each other.

Therefore, Chief of Staff Matsuda's attitude was respectful but without any hint of intimacy, and he carried out the etiquette of subordinates impeccably. General Nagumo Tadashi, who had returned from many years of layoff, was all focused on how to create a brilliant record. When he thought of it,

As the head of this huge fleet, he was so passionate that he didn't care at all about Chief of Staff Matsuda's attitude.

After returning the gift, Nagumo Chuichi pointed at the escort fighter jets that were landing one after another, and said with a half-smile: "Chief of Staff Matsuda, you are making a fuss out of a molehill. The journey was very peaceful. I would like to see what China's fighter jets look like!"

The muscles on Matsuda Jiro's cheeks couldn't help but twitch a few times. He was quite speechless. He was full of words but couldn't say anything. He had to say: "Commander, all the senior officers of the fleet have arrived. Do you want to hold a meeting immediately?"
