In fact, Feng Ru's air force surprised Chen Xuan far more than just the fighters that annihilated the devils, the fleeing Japanese planes were shot down one by one in the process of pursuit, and the Flying Tigers also lost one fighter.

However, the escape of the Japanese aircraft gave Feng Ru a direction, and it was too late to determine the location of the Japanese battleship, so Feng Ru took the risk of sending a penguin squadron (boom. The bomber was fat like a penguin, and I don't know who called it out first, so the bomber was also called a penguin) and a flying tiger brigade, searching in the direction of the Japanese plane's escape.

I didn't expect him to find it, about 220 miles from Shanghai, a small Japanese warship was parked here waiting for its plane to return, but I didn't expect to wait for a group of death.

Dozens of planes pounced on the Japanese warship like hungry tigers, and the lightning speed made the warships have no time to react, and the Flying Tiger Brigade had already strafed by with aviation machine guns, and the aviation bullets tore the panicked navy on the splint to pieces with powerful potential energy, and after two rounds of dive strafing, the deck was already full of corpses.

However, Chen Xuan's air force did not give them any chance to react, and after three rounds of strafing, the Penguin squadron (boom. Bombers) have already pounced, rushing towards the fleeing Japanese warship, dozens of pounds to revitalize the aviation bombing developed by the Hua Arsenal. The bullet slammed into the panicked warship as the penguin squadron dived.

The warship seemed to have been smashed by countless large vertebrae, and in the loud explosion, countless ugly holes appeared in the flat deck, torn and twisted anti-aircraft machine guns and iron nails that fixed the ships flew everywhere, and the facilities on the plywood were swept away, and some warships even caused a martyrdom and ignited a raging fire, not to mention that someone could survive.

Now it's time for the penguin squadron to perform, and the fat penguins no longer need to dodge the enemy's anti-aircraft machine guns, and start dropping aerial bombs with precision. Bullets and fish. Ray, in the end, sank two Japanese frigates, a battleship and three cruisers, a frigate lost power and floated on the sea, the aircraft carrier was also sunk on the spot, and the rest of the frigates, as well as gunboats, fled into the vast sea.

This is completely a great achievement that Feng Ru did not expect, if it were not for the aviation bombing that the Penguin Squadron could bring. There were not many bullets, and there was almost no chance that the Japanese warships would escape, but even so, the record was brilliant enough.

Two hours later, the navy led by Yan Fu finally arrived, and Yan Fu was ecstatic about the huge victory, and began to board ships to capture the enemy.

The commander of the Japanese battleship, which had lost power, saw that it was too late to rush to repair, so he ordered the battleship to be blown up, and the huge explosion opened a large hole in the side of the battleship, tons of seawater began to pour in, and the huge ship had begun to tilt slightly.

However, how could Yan Fu be willing to let the battleship sink, and after ordering the prisoners on board who had not committed suicide to be controlled, he ordered the damage to be repaired, and several other ships that had lost power were also quickly controlled, and were towed back to Shanghai by the cargo ships that accompanied the supplies, and the air force left some fighters on guard.

When Yan Fu towed the captured Japanese naval ships back to Shanghai, Shanghai was boiling, the southeast was boiling, and the whole of China was boiling, and countless people remembered the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle and couldn't help but cry bitterly, and countless citizens, students, and workers poured into the streets to cheer and parade, and the celebratory firecrackers rang off for a whole day and a night.

Consuls and military observers of various countries were also shocked by the results of the Baath Air Force, and the consuls of various countries began to ask Chen Xuan for the history of the naval battle and the technical parameters of the Baath Air Force.

However, Chen Xuan was not a Manchu politician. Fu, whatever the foreigners say, it is what it is, if you want to go through a naval battle, you can, but the technical parameters of the Air Force? Sorry, this is a military secret and will not be leaked!

The German consul was more pragmatic and not as arrogant as Britain and France, so he found Chen Xuan as soon as possible, and placed a huge number of aircraft orders. There are bombers, transport planes, AWACS aircraft, and they are traded in gold.

The Germans had long expected that Qingdao would not be able to hold on, and they had long transported Qingdao's massive wealth to Shanghai, and now they had cheapened Chen Xuan.

When the British and French consuls reacted, Gu Weijun and the French consul in Shanghai had already signed the order, and the industrial strength of the Baath Party was not enough to supply the orders of the three major countries, so they could only buy or exchange the technology urgently needed by the Baath Party for aircraft technology.

The reaction of the Japanese was very strange, they neither made any evaluation, nor declared war on the Republic of China, I don't know what was bad?

Chen Xuan did not dare to be careless, and immediately reported the results to the commanders of various military regions and reminded them to be cautious, while Chen Xuan himself helped Zhao Xuechu and Feng Ru coordinate to expand the production capacity of the aircraft factory, and determined the foreign trade aircraft.

As for what is a foreign trade aircraft, there is no need to say more, in a word, it is that conventional technology can be sold, but core technology is not, of course, others can't see it, and they also understand in their hearts that Chen Xuan must keep a hand.

After all this, it has been half a month.

"Commander-in-chief, I just received a tip from Tokyo that the Japanese have two fleets going to the South Seas!"

Wu Qi entered Chen Xuan's office, now Wu Qi has been exercised, joy, anger and sorrow are all the same face, and I don't know if this is a common problem of intelligence chiefs, but Chen Xuan is in no mood to make fun of him.

"Is there any sign that the Army is following?"

"Not for the time being, and even if there is, it's just the Japanese Marine Corps."

Chen Xuan's worst fear still happened, if the war happened in China, no matter what means the Japanese used, Chen Xuan was not worried, but if the Japanese cut off the trade between Xia and China, it would be a heavy blow to Chen Xuan's soft underbelly, and it would hurt his heart!

Xia is composed of five large islands and countless small islands, and the connection between them is basically dependent on shipping, if the shipping is cut off, China and Xia, as well as the islands of Xia will lose contact, not to mention watching and helping each other, the industrial center of Xia is Penglai (Java) and Lanfang Island (Borneo), and it would be good if the other islands could produce light weapons.

"Zu Tao, inform the high-level leaders of the Baath Party in Shanghai, as well as the commander of the navy Yan Fu, the commander of the air force Feng Ru, Sun Hongye and the general political commissar Chen, to immediately convene a meeting of the party committee!"

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan closed his eyes and kept thinking in his heart.

After thinking about it carefully, I still can't find a way to deal with it, the navy has developed greatly, but it has not experienced actual combat, and there is still a big gap between the overall strength and the Japanese, if it is a coastal war, with the assistance of the air force, you can still fight, but when you run to the ocean, everything is unknown, and the probability of defeat of your own navy is greater.

However, the Chinese navy has been defeated too many times, and if there is another fiasco, it will be a great blow to the morale of the military and the people, but without a fight, the Xia Islands, especially the abbot of Yingzhou, will fall into the danger of isolation, and all development plans will come to a standstill.

Perhaps the Japanese did not dare to intercept the ships of the Entente countries such as Britain, France, and the United States, but Germany had great trade contacts with the Chen Xuan group, and if it came to a standstill, it would be a great loss.

Zhang Jian, Gu Weijun, Han Xu, Zhao Xuechu, Huang Kan, Chen Guangfu, Yan Fu, Feng Ru, Sun Hongye, Chen Qicai and others all arrived, and Wu Qi began to explain the current situation to everyone.

"Commander-in-chief, please go south, the Japanese deceive our navy has no one, how can our navy endure this tone?"

As soon as Wu Qi's words fell, Yan Fu had already taken the case, and everyone was also angry.

"Brother Ling, don't be impatient, isn't the commander-in-chief convening everyone to discuss countermeasures, and let's discuss it."

Zhang Jian explained.

"What else is there to talk about, the enemy has come to the doorstep, Xia Guo is now not an exaggeration to say that it is the foundation of our Baath Party, most of the domestic refugees are going to Xia Guo, and our food source Xia Guo also accounts for most of it, if the little devil cuts off our sea route, it will be a big deal."

As soon as Yan Fu's voice fell, everyone began to talk again, and Chen Xuan did not interject, listening carefully to everyone's opinions and everyone's arguments, and seeking a solution from it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current situation is not as bad as we imagined," Han Xu, who had been silent, also spoke, "The purpose of the Japanese navy going south is nothing more than to attack the Xia Islands and cut off our sea transportation, according to Director Wu, the Japanese army has not moved south, and we have a lot of strategic reserves on the islands, so there is no need to be afraid of the direct attack of the Japanese army, and even the victory of the Japanese direct attack on the island is not an overnight thing, then our main consideration is that the Japanese warships cut off our sea communications."

And the countermeasures we need to make are to assess our losses and come up with countermeasures after the Japanese cut off our traffic. ”

"Since the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese army has achieved great benefits in our country and great prestige in the world, and the rise of the Japanese is not in line with the interests of the European and American powers in East Asia.

Gu Weijun also spoke.

"According to our estimates, the Japanese finances have not been alleviated, they can not afford too much financial losses, cutting off the sea lines of communication is actually a double-edged sword, the Japanese can do it, we can too, the Japanese trade dependence is far greater than ours, if the two sides fight for consumption, we are not necessarily afraid of them."

It was Chen Guangfu, who was in charge of the Baath Party's finances, who naturally knew more about international finance than anyone else.

"We can also use war to promote peace, Xia Guo is our weakness, don't the Japanese have it? The Japanese have always relied on Goryeo blood transfusion, but the Kwantung Army stationed in Goryeo only has tens of thousands of people, we can be the first to attack Lushun Dalian, and send a large army to garrison the Goryeo border, if the Japanese invaders want to expand the war, we will push them into the sea! ”

Sun Hongye said loudly.

Chen Xuan was also pleasantly surprised to find that he was not without a way to counteract.
