When Li Chengtai heard this, he knew that there was a problem with Fang Cai's phone call, and the first thing he thought was that the internal telephone line of the military port had been cut off, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed more difficult to monitor the internal telephone of the military port.

"I didn't hang up or question it. Because I'm afraid that it will not be good for us. ”

"Madame is thoughtful and thoughtful, and Chengtai admires her! What can you do now? Do you want to tell the young marshal to know there? ”

Lin Wanjing didn't answer, slowly paced to the sand table, lifted the red velvet curtain covering the sand table, her eyes focused on the coastline, and after a long time, she asked:

"Just now you said that there was an abnormal movement in the open sea, but the Japanese side has moved?"

Liu Jin had guessed before that as long as the collegial panel could not follow the wishes of the Japanese, the Japanese fleet would inevitably make moves, aiming to give Luzhou a dismount. But after all, getting off the horse is just a pretense, what they want is to force the Luzhou Army to sign an agreement, so it should just be a form of transferring a few light cruises and pretending.

"Hmm." Li Chengtai nodded with a stern expression, "As I saw in the military port just now, the whole army is on alert, it should be a big battle." ”

When Lin Wanjing heard this, her heart chuckled, this was a bit of a way out from Liu Jin's previous speculation, but she believed that he also had a plan, so she turned her eyes to the sand table:

"If so... He should pin down the fleet near the port of Funan, Canghan said, this sea area is underwaterly fortified, and it is within the range of the Nanping Mountain cannon..."

"The young marshal has this intention, but at this stage, he should not use the Nanping Mountain cannon, the giant cannon has great lethality, but it is not suitable for close combat, and the gun hall guide rail is long, and the shell filling cycle is also long. For example, this time, from the outpost information received so far, the Japanese side has sent British-made cruisers and destroyers, and the number is small and fast, and the giant artillery has no advantage in melee combat. ”

"So... Will there really be a war? ”

Li Chengtai pondered for a while, and replied categorically:

"In the young marshal's considerations, no. At the present stage, whoever fires the first shot is the one who provokes the dispute. With so many eyes watching, no matter how radical the Kitano faction is, it will not take this step rashly. ”

Lin Wanjing rearranged her thoughts, and suddenly felt that it was inappropriate - all the above strategic deployments were based on the premise of confidentiality.

But what if all these deployments were compromised?

What if the enemy knew all about the shortcomings of the Nanping Mountain cannon and planted eyeliner next to Liu Jin?

And what if, this eyeliner still has the right to give orders and provoke war?

So she turned her gaze to the sand table again, and said to herself:

"If, according to what you said, they chose fast-moving ships and there were not many of them, it was that they already knew the weakness of the Nanping Mountain Giant Cannon. Therefore, they will definitely adopt a strategy of close quarters, because this is just a cover for leading the war, and the purpose is to create an opportunity for the inner ghost to lead the war. The slender finger skimmed over the chart, all the way south, to the perimeter of the public concession, and finally settled:

"Here. They will definitely try their best to lure the fleet south, and then make it look like they are waiting for an opportunity to break through the blockade, the waters are open here, and today the weather is sunny and the visibility is excellent, and their purpose is to let everyone see that we are taking the initiative to open fire. ”

As she spoke, her gaze stopped at a model of a ship placed in the waters of the commercial port, its shape was clearly different from that of the cruise ship or freighter next to it, but it was much more slender than the other ships in the fleet.

"Adjutant Li, come and see, why is this ship obviously different from other ships?"

Seeing that her eyes were full of doubts, Li Chengtai stepped forward, followed her gaze, and then said:

"This one is Admiral's Ship Thornbird, the only British-made destroyer in the fleet. Compact and flexible, it is suitable for dealing with the complex waterway environment of commercial ports in these extraordinary times. Because the deck was scratched by the reef before, it has been repaired in the military port. ”

Lin Wanjing knew about this. That was when she was still recuperating at St. Michael's Hospital. One afternoon, Liu Jin was walking with her in the yard, and Lu Canghan ran over angrily and shouted at Liu Jin:

"You said that I would use my ship like this?!"

Liu Jin laughed dryly, revealing a rare embarrassed look:

"It's not that the fog suddenly rises when I return home, I think it's all German-made ironclads, and they can pass by the side of the reef beach, who would have thought that it would be scraped ......"

"Scraped?! The decks are worn out!! If you row a dozen centimeters further, the engine room will be flooded! I said you're really the commander of your Xunlong flagship!! You're in your head!! Destroyers, can they be the same as your battleships?! I'm telling you, you're a major conductor accident! ”

"Alright... Didn't I find someone to fix it for you......"

"Repair?! Is this a matter of repair?! Lu Canghan stretched out his finger and poked it Liu Jin's chest, saying:

"Here, I'll make a cut for you here, and then tell you to find a doctor to sew it up for you, are you comfortable?! You know that I treat it like a baby, and I expect it to show off its might one day, but before it even goes to war, you make it look like this! Nest bag is not nest bag! ”

"Come on, stop howling, I'll fix it for you, okay?"

"Okay! But you say, what if it can't be repaired? ”

"Can't fix it? If I can't fix it, I'll buy you another one! ”

……

Everything was so beautiful at that time, and now that she thinks about it, Lin Wanjing hopes that everything is just a dream, and when she wakes up, she can return to the scene at that time.

Seeing that she was distracted, Li Chengtai called her, Lin Wanjing woke up like a dream, and was busy apologizing for her inappropriate distraction.

"Madame, but you have thought of a way to break the game?"

Lin Wenjing shook her head slightly embarrassed: "I'm ashamed, I just thought about the past......

At this point, Lin Wanjing suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and Twilight looked at Li Chengtai and said:

"You just said that the Canghan ship was made by the British? Are you really not mistaken? ”

"How can I be mistaken? Madame, look. Li Chengtai presented the two models in the sand table to Lin Wanjing: "These two ships, in size, size, and shape, are not the same. It's impossible to get it wrong. ”

But at that time, Liu Jin said that Lu Canghan's ship, like other ships in the fleet, was made by Germany. In other words, the battleship that scraped the deck was somehow not repaired, so Liu Jin purchased another British destroyer for Lu Canghan, and the purchase time was not long, and the weapons and configuration should be the latest.

Just now, Li Chengtai said that according to the outpost intelligence, the Japanese side sent all British destroyers and cruisers?

"Do you know if the Thorn Bird is still in the harbor?"

"Now... Up in the air. Li Chengtai pondered for a moment and said, "But when I left the military port just now, I heard that the young marshal landed Admiral Landing on the temporary affairs of the military port, and there is no need to support the commercial port unless it is a crisis. Moreover, probably because the deck has just been repaired, the name of the ship has not yet had time to be painted, so the Admiral and the Thorn Bird should still be on standby in the military port now. ”

His eyes lit up, and he thought about it.

But seeing Lin Wanjing walk quickly to the desk, she took out a pen and paper, and with a few words, she folded it and handed it to Li Chengtai, and gave it to him, along with the model of the thorn bird, and a gold token with a relief unicorn pattern:

"You take this, go to the military port immediately, no matter what, meet the land general."
