The secretary brought the tea in and went out, closing the door with his hand.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, because it was Xue Yuanzheng who called Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen over, but he himself did not appear, and there were two rear admirals left in the room after the secretary went out.

Xue Yuanzheng's intentions couldn't be more obvious.

I hope that the two of them will give up their past suspicions and work together in the next battle.

The key, there is a suspicion?

In Bai Zhizhan's view, this problem does not exist at all.

He and Liu Xiangzhen are both soldiers of the Imperial Navy, both serve the Empire, and they only need to serve the Empire, and nothing else matters.

What's more, so far, the two are just competing, competing, and not calculating each other for their own interests.

At least not too explicitly.

If I want to say anything, it's just that the White War has changed too much, and it can be said that it is not what it used to be.

In the past, Bai Zhizhan was only a disciple of Zhu Shijian, an officer from the civilian class, and he couldn't compare with Liu Xiangzhen at all, so he needed to let Liu Xiangzhen everywhere. The most representative is that before the war, Bai Zhizhan gave Liu Xiangzhen the opportunity to go to the special mixed group.

Now, Bai Zhizhan is not only a disciple of Zhu Shijian, but also a general of the Shaozhuang faction that Xue Yuanzheng focused on cultivating, and he is also a concubine of the imperial family. He has Li Yunxiang, a good brother who is like each other, and he is also like-minded with Lian Xusheng, and even talks about it with Wang Kaiyuan. Within the navy, there are several iron buddies who have supported each other for decades, as well as Li Mingbo, a sworn friend, who has cultivated subordinates like Zhou Yongtao.

Not to mention that this capital far exceeds Liu Xiangzhen, even compared with the entire Liu family, it is not bad.

The identity of the Imperial Horse alone surpasses the Liu family!

So, what else is there to worry about?

No matter what, the dignified Imperial Horse Master will not worry about the children of a noble family.

If you really want to care, it's also Liu Xiangzhen.

"General Bai, there are a lot of things that I know you may not be able to listen to, but I still have to say them. Anyway, we are Imperial Navy soldiers. ”

"That's what I'm going to say."

Liu Xiangzhen was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

Bai Zhizhan didn't say much, because everything he wanted to say was contained in this sentence, to be a competent and qualified naval soldier.

About five minutes after the secretary went out, the door was pushed open, and Xue Yuanzheng walked in.

If Xue Yuanzheng didn't eavesdrop outside, or didn't send someone to eavesdrop outside, it would definitely be impossible.

He only came in now, just to reconcile Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen, so that the two of them can let go of the estrangement in their hearts and meet new challenges together.

This time, there is no room for mistakes.

After Xue Yuanzheng arrived, there was no need to continue to delay time, after all, there were still dozens of high-ranking officials and generals waiting for them in the conference center.

On the main tactical issue, Bai Zhizhan coincided with Liu Xiangzhen.

Task Force 21 acts as a shield at the front and is responsible for luring the enemy into the depths, while Task Force 41 hides behind and acts in anticipation.

To put it simply, Task Force 21 attracts firepower, and Task Force 41 waits for an opportunity.

On the secondary issue, Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen had a big difference.

Should the fast battleships covering the aircraft carrier be drawn out to form a separate task force, or should they be merged with the 42nd task force, which is the original home fleet, to intercept and block the battleship formation of the Nuland Navy and act as a shield in the front?

Bai Zhizhan felt that it was necessary, and Liu Xiangzhen felt that it was not necessary.

The key is anti-aircraft cover.

It's not that Liu Xiangzhen is afraid of death, but the situation of the two is different.

Don't forget, at the top of the pack is Task Force 21.

Even if the Nuland Navy receives the news of the departure of Task Force 41 and knows that it is under the command of Bai Zhizhan, it will focus on taking care of Task Force 21 before discovering Task Force 41, and concentrate on killing Task Force 21 immediately after entering the war.

To put it another way, Task Force 41 did not participate in the war, and the Nuland Navy would not take Task Force 21 at all.

In order to defeat the Imperial Navy in one fell swoop and annihilate the more threatening Task Force 41, the Nuland Navy will definitely take out the 21st Task Force with a thunderous force.

It can be seen that Liu Xiangzhen has almost all the pressure!

Even if he can treat death as if he were home, he will not risk tens of thousands of fleet officers and soldiers and two aircraft carriers, so it is necessary to bring fast battleships.

Liu Xiangzhen's original intention was to integrate all four upgraded fast battleships into the 21st Task Force.

When speculating on the course of the engagement, Liu Xiangzhen repeatedly emphasized that a fast battleship could not provide all-round air defense cover for the aircraft carrier. In a high-intensity naval battle, it is necessary to have at least two air defense warships, preferably four, in order to organize a tight network of anti-aircraft fire.

The situation of the White Stop War was the opposite.

As long as it enters the battlefield secretly, then the probability of the 41st Task Force being exposed is not very high before entering the battle, and it can remain hidden all the time.

Before launching a surprise attack, the White Stop War did not need to think about the problem of being hit.

If the assault is successful, there is no need to think about it either.

If the assault fails, it will probably be the same for the 41st Task Force, which is deep behind enemy lines and is fighting alone, with or without the cover of fast battleships.

It was precisely because of this that Bai Zhizhan felt that it was enough to bring those "Wuzhou"-class heavy cruisers.

In addition, according to the relevant information provided by the Sixth Bureau, the combat effectiveness of the carrier-based aviation of the Nuland Navy is at most comparable to that of the Narrow Navy at the beginning of the war, and the performance of its carrier-based aircraft is not advanced, and the main torpedo attack aircraft are even inferior to the 97 ship-based attackers, which are similar to the first few batches of "Exocet".

If this is the case, then the attack power of the Nuland aircraft carrier will not be too strong.

Considering that the performance of the "Roaring Sky" far exceeds that of the "Typhoon", it can be said that it is the most powerful carrier-based fighter today, and with the help provided by the air defense radar, the pressure on the air defense operation of the fleet will not be too great, at least not so serious that it cannot survive without fast battleships.

In addition, on the issue of intercepting the convoy, Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen also had disagreements.

This is a disagreement in the choice of tactics, and there is no question of direction.

According to the meaning of the White Stop War, the transport fleet was first put in, and the decisive battle was fought in the sea area closer to the mainland of Saoyi, as far away as possible from the islands controlled by the Nuland Navy such as Guan Dao. Liu Xiangzhen felt that it was too risky, the Saoyi Imperial State had not yet been defeated, and there were still some long-range attack aircraft like the Type 96 land attack in the north and north of the island, so it was best to fight in the open sea, not too close to the Sagi mainland.

In Liu Xiangzhen's words, during the decisive battle with the Nuland fleet, there was no way to be distracted from the threat from behind.

As for the long-range aviation on the pipelines, the Howaii Islands, and the Aliu Islands, because the north-west and eastward seas are vast enough, the threat is not too great.

It's normal to have disagreements, and the key is that the two didn't hinder each other because of this.

As for the tactical differences, that's a matter for the Navy, and we'll settle them when we get back.

After the main strategy, the 21st Task Force and the 41st Task Force fought separately, Xue Yuanzheng returned to the conference center with the two of them, concluded the plenary meeting, and then announced the dismissal of the meeting, allowing the participants to step up preparations after they returned.

It's just that Xue Yuanzheng didn't let go of the war and left.

Before the meeting, Xue Yuanzheng reminded Bai Zhizhan and asked him to stay after the meeting, saying that he still had something very important to tell him.
