In the early morning of January 12, Puzhou Port.

According to the requirements, when the "Hengjiang" set sail, it did not pull the whistle, but only gave a farewell light signal to several barges to see it off.

Outside the port, four destroyers sent by the home fleet were already in place.

On the side of the floating dock, workers are busy pulling up curtains dozens of meters high to cover the large oil tanker that replaces the "Hengjiang" before dawn. Over the next few days, workers would build a flight deck out of black planks on top of the tanker and build an island. When everything is ready, remove part of the curtain and let people outside see that it is an "aircraft carrier" to carry out a complete repair in the floating dock.

The reason for doing these things was to convince the outside world, especially those spies lurking in Puzhou, that the maintenance work of the "Hengjiang" would continue for a long time.

The key is to convince the Sayi Navy that the aircraft carrier will be returned to Puzhou.

These are all arrangements for Bai Zhizhan, and some of them were thought up by Zhou Yongtao. If you really want to say, Zhou Yongtao really has a lot of ghost ideas.

Fundamentally, it's because the troops are too shabby.

This time, there is only one aircraft carrier!

Not to mention four, if there are two aircraft carriers, Bai Zhizhan dares to kill directly to Tuke Fortress, how can there be these troubles?

In fact, according to the original plan, there should be two aircraft carriers at this time, and most of them were led by Bai Zhizhan to attack the Tuke fortress.

More than two days ago, that is, in the early morning of January 10, after receiving a call from Bai Zhizhan, Liu Changxun didn't think about it, and directly agreed, so that Bai Zhizhan would not have any worries, just let it go, there was no need to look ahead, and he would bear all the problems.

By the next day, there was more good news from the command of the Navy.

Liu Changxun has already approved the integration of two "Xuhai" class ships into the "Hengjiang" battle group, and has formed the first task force, with Bai Zhizhan as the commander.

News then came from the port of Maginda that the home fleet would send two heavy patrol detachments to support the White Stop, including four "Wuzhou" class ships led by the Wei army.

This is the "strongest treaty" heavy cruiser.

As for the number of the "First Task Force," in fact, it was Bai Zhizhan who took advantage of it, and this was the first time after the reform that the fleet was assigned a number according to the new establishment system.

When the battle on Liuhuang Island begins, the task force group commanded by Liu Xiangzhen will be temporarily organized into the second task force.

The main thing is that how to assign the new number, the Navy Command has not yet decided.

As expected, it is still divided by direction, for example, the fleet on the Guia side uses singular, and the fleet on the Fanyan Ocean uses an even number.

In addition, the home fleet will send four light cruisers and eight destroyers.

If required, fleet tankers that had previously been assigned to the Third Air Task Force, which had been detained at Magindashi Harbor and were now in the hands of the Home Fleet, could also be supplied.

In the words of Gui Boyong, what the White War needs, the home fleet provides.

The key news comes from Li Yunxiang.

He personally called Bai Zhizhan to tell him that he would replenish the First Task Force with a number of the most advanced carrier-based aircraft, and that all the pilots of the First Air Task Force would be arranged.

This arrangement was taken by Li Yunxiang for the Baizhi War.

Actually, it's not wrong to say that it's a gesture.

After Bai Zhizhan left the imperial capital, Li Yunxiang was not only excluded, but was also promoted to the director of the Aviation Operations Department and entrusted with important tasks.

If you want to say it, you are actually retaining him.

Just a few days ago, Li Yunxiang was looking for Liu Changxun and preparing for a showdown, when he learned from Liu Changxun that Bai Zhizhan was about to lead the fleet on an expedition.

For this reason, he decided to work for a while longer, to be precise, until Bai Zhizhan returned triumphantly.

Anyway, Li Yunxiang is very interesting.

Actually, the same goes for shipyard workers.

Although Bai Zhizhan and Zhou Yongtao were very active and had been busy on the spot, after learning that the navy urgently needed this aircraft carrier to annihilate the permanent fleet of Shiyi, thousands of workers did not say a word, and none of them paid overtime, and all of them consciously and voluntarily stayed to participate in the maintenance work.

Some skilled workers even worked for two days and two nights in a row, and when they were tired, they would find a random place to sleep on the aircraft carrier.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to shorten the originally planned three-day maintenance work to two days.

In this regard, Bai Zhizhan is also very touched.

In fact, this is also a way to do it.

On January 10, the day of the start of the repair of the "Hengjiang", the armored troops commanded by Li Qing, who assaulted from the eastern road, slaughtered outside the city of Puju.

The retreat was cut off, and the narrow army at the front completely collapsed.

The next day, the main force of the armored force commanded by Lian Xusheng killed from the west road to the outside of Puzhou.

The two armies met on the same day and completed the encirclement of Puju.

On Jan. 11, that is, yesterday, the Marines who landed on Jedo captured the vital airfield and completed the construction of a temporary pier.

Just a few hours later, dozens of carrier-based aircraft of the Navy landed at the airfield.

Crucially, these carrier-based aircraft are all painted in the same livery as the Task Force carrier-based aircraft, and all pilots are ordered to use the unit number of the Task Force.

All in all, it is a carrier-based aircraft pretending to be a special group.

According to the plan, starting on the morning of the 12th, these carrier-based planes deployed in Jedo will be dispatched to bomb military installations in the western part of the country. Let the Sagi Navy believe that the special task force is still operating in the Asahi Sea, and will assist the army in attacking the Sagi mainland next.

Although such an inferior method will not be much more effective and will not last long, it will only be enough to deceive the narrow navy for a few days.

If all goes well, in the early morning of the 12th, that is, now, the special group will be heading south at full speed.

Since there is no need to think about repairing warships, the task force will definitely be able to enter the Guia Ocean before the first task force and enter the battlefield first.

Of course, it's nothing.

According to the plan, to be precise, the idea put forward by Bai Zhizhan will use the special mixed group as bait this time.

As long as the Narrow Navy is fooled and let Lan Yun take the permanent fleet to attack the task force, Bai Zhizhan will lead the first task force to intercept and kill them halfway.

How to fight, Bai Zhizhan has not yet figured out.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be called an assumption.

Before boarding the "Hengjiang", Bai Zhizhan called Zheng Jiangming for the last time, and received the reply that the permanent fleet was still in the fortress of Tuke.

In addition, the commander of the Guia Fleet of the Nuland Federation has arrived on the island of Honou.

If nothing else, two fleet carriers will arrive on the 15th, and the Nuland Navy's Guia Fleet will thus have a full five fleet carriers.

To say that its combat effectiveness has surpassed that of the Imperial Navy.

Even if the "Yokoe" is counted, the Imperial Navy now has only five fleet aircraft carriers.

It's just that there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

Even if the president of the Nuland Federation had already made the decision to enter the war and immediately sent the fleet out, it would not be until the end of January to reach the Guia. It will take half a month to cross, and it is necessary to consider supply and maintenance, as well as the placement of officers and soldiers, whether to transport materials and equipment to the front-line steel helmets, and so on.

Until then, the Nuland Federation will not bring shame on itself.

Just the few warships deployed on Guan Dao and Nanzhu Kingdom, not to mention the fleet, can be handled by shore-based aviation.

In any case, the top priority was to annihilate the permanent fleet commanded by Lan Yun and assist Liu Xiangzhen in attacking Zhanliu Huangdao and opening the door to victory.
