Chapter 431: The Heart Knot Untied

The White Stop War was on the flight deck and did not go anywhere else.

Since it was not yet noon, and the air defense fighters that had taken off in the morning did not return until the afternoon, there was no situation in which carrier-based aircraft had to be lifted into the air for the time being.

There were few officers and men on the flight deck, most of them were doing their own thing.

To say, this is a rare leisure time.

When the battle starts, even if it is in combat mode, all the idle people, including the commander of the fleet, will not be able to go to the flight deck.

Bai Zhizhan stood at the very front of the flight deck, looking at the sea ahead.

"Not to mention working on an aircraft carrier for more than ten years, it's the first time I've come to this place."

Hearing the words, Bai Zhizhan did not look back. Dare to talk to him in this way, on this aircraft carrier, Li Mingbo is the only one.

Of course, Li Mingbo didn't come over to say hello.

"It's really good."

After approaching, Li Mingbo also sighed, and Bai Zhizhan only turned his head and looked at him at this time.

"I'm talking about scenery."

Li Mingbo smiled reluctantly, as long as he could attract Bai Zhizhan's attention, it would be fine.

"Any idea what I'm worried about?"

"Do you still need to ask? It's all written on your face! ”

Bai Zhizhan was stunned, and couldn't help but look at Li Mingbo carefully.

For Lee Myung-bak, Bai Zhizhan can be said to know the roots. Anyway, the two have known each other for more than 20 years, and they have been training together for more than 10 years.

In Bai Zhizhan's understanding, Li Mingbo is a rough person, or a very open-minded person.

Obviously, that's just the past!

Li Mingbo's biggest advantage is actually knowing how to make trade-offs and knowing his position.

In addition, there is no ambition beyond one's own ability.

Now it seems that Li Mingbo has changed a lot, or rather, after becoming the chief of staff of the fleet and improving his status, he has redefined his position.

To put it bluntly, a good chief of staff needs more than the ability to work with mud.

At critical times, it is also necessary to be able to solve problems for the fleet commander.

If you want to say anything, don't look at Zhou Yongtao's often stunned, as well as the impulsiveness of young people, the ability to say and make suggestions is indeed far beyond Li Mingbo.

Of course, Li Mingbo also has self-knowledge.

Command ability is more like talent, especially the ability to judge the situation on the battlefield, that is, the sense of smell on the battlefield, which cannot be acquired through study and training.

Is it still a secret what kind of talent a middle-aged man in his 40s has?

Even if you can imitate and learn, it is too late for a middle-aged uncle.

Of course, Li Mingbo has his own advantages.

If you have to say, that is, experience.

Perhaps, this is the biggest change for Li Mingbo.

"You are worried, you feel that there is danger everywhere ahead, and if you take one wrong step, you will fall into the abyss from which you will never recover. I'm still sure that you're not thinking about your own future, after all, you're the Imperial Horse Master, and even if you lose the battle, no one will dare to do anything to you. You're worried about us, especially old subordinates like me, who have been following you and tying their lives to you. ”

"Brother Li......"

"It's normal to worry, we're going to change positions, I'm afraid I'm going to collapse early."

Hearing Li Mingbo say this, Bai Zhizhan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

To say, Li Mingbo still understands him.

"Your fears, at least in my personal opinion, are completely unfounded. If you really want to say it, you can actually look at it from another angle. ”

"How?"

"What you're worried about is that you don't know Cunningham, you can't accurately guess every move of your opponent like you did when you dealt with Takaya, and you feel that you can't defeat Cunningham, at least not enough sure. But if you really want to say, do you think Cunningham is sure? With the stubbornness of the Brans, even with the help of Tian Shi, Cunningham may not obey his words, and even sneer at them. ”

Bai Zhizhan frowned.

Although I have never met Cunningham, as far as the understanding of Bai Zhizhan is concerned, Cunningham is determined and is a gradual general, and it is often difficult to listen to the opinions of others.

If you want to say it, Bai Zhizhan himself is like this.

"In terms of fame, you have long surpassed Cunningham. Besides, the initiative is ours, whether to fight or not, how to fight, we have the final say. If you want me to say, even if Cunningham comes with a fleet of aircraft carriers, he may not have the courage to come to us for a decisive battle. ”

"Drag it down?"

"From a strategic point of view, isn't the alliance group playing a procrastination trick?"

"This ......"

"The storming of Lion Springs is just the beginning, and then we have to sweep the North Fanyan Ocean area, then we have to march into Posha Bay, and finally we have to occupy Posha Bay. Even at this time, there are still many problems to be solved, such as resuming the production of the oil fields destroyed by the enemy, resuming the operation of the port on the other side of Posha Bay, mobilizing oil tankers and forming a transport fleet, and even arranging warships to escort the fleet. So many things, even if all of them are smooth, it will take more than half a year to get it done. It can be said that with an additional delay of half a year, perhaps a quarter, we may all be defeated by using up all our strategic reserves before we can get the oil produced by Posha Bay. ”

When Li Mingbo said this, Bai Zhizhan kept his head buried in contemplation.

After a while, Bai Zhizhan asked, "You mean, Cunningham is playing tricks?" ”

Li Mingbo was obviously stunned, and he could see that he didn't mean this at all, and began to say that, just pouring out all the accumulation in the past few months.

Of course, it can also be said to be extraordinary.

Although Li Mingbo has a good view of the overall situation, if you really want to talk about it, especially the judgment of the battle situation, it is only the level of an ordinary staff officer.

Usually bragging is enough, but if you really want him to say why, it must be difficult.

"That's right, it must be!"

Without the slightest warning, Bai Zhizhan suddenly became excited, and Li Mingbo was startled.

"Brother Li, you are still amazing, this is really three days away, you should be impressed. Cunningham, no, it was the Royal Navy Bran who made so many famous names, and they were playing tricks on us, making us suspicious, wasting precious time, and thus missing the best opportunity to attack Lion's Springs. ”

"Figured it out?" Li Mingbo was secretly happy, because he didn't think about it so much at all.

"Honestly, outsiders!" Bai Zhizhan sighed and said, "The question that I haven't thought about before, after you clicked it, is now suddenly clear." ”

Bai Zhizhan's exclamation is not unreasonable.

As the saying goes: the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.

Even if it is a white stop, as a ruler, there are too many issues to care about, and it is impossible to see more essential things, so naturally it will not be able to grasp the main point.

Previously, one of the key mistakes of the White War Criminals was to firmly believe that Bran's army would defend Lion Springs at any cost.

"Are you hungry?"

Bai Zhizhan was stunned for a moment, and then touched his belly.

I was so worried before, even if I was hungry, I didn't feel it.

Now, the boulder that weighed on my heart was gone, and the hunger pangs immediately came up.

"I asked the chef to re-fry two side dishes and talk while eating."

"Okay. I began to forget to ask, it seems that there are new carrier-based aircraft? When he said this, Bai Zhizhan turned around.

"Just discovered?"

Bai Zhizhan smiled embarrassedly, and after he came to the flight deck, he saw several new carrier-based aircraft parked in the tail.
