This night, Liu Xiangzhen couldn't sleep.

He went to rest for more than an hour after dinner, and returned to the commander's bridge just after eight o'clock, before Xue Yuanzheng made a radio speech.

Like the White Stop, he also received information from the command of the Navy.

Don't look at him from a famous family, it can be said that he was born with a golden soup spoon, and the environment in which he grew up is even more blessed, but he is more serious and careful in doing things than Bai Zhizhan.

Perhaps, this is the imprint left on him by the scholarly education he received since childhood.

In fact, this is also what Bai Zhizhan admires most about him. Through him, Bai Zhizhan realized that the real Jiangmen is not in vain. Compared to many officers from the civilian class, they work harder because they need to prove themselves through hard work.

The second ancestor like Liu Xiangbin is in the minority.

At least, the two people of the Liu family that Bai Zhizhan is most familiar with, Liu Xiangzhen and Liu Xiangdong, are very serious and down-to-earth, and they are by no means gentlemen.

After getting the latest information, that is, the Sayi Navy was preparing to invade and occupy the North and South Sadou Islands, Liu Xiangzhen immediately returned to the commander's bridge.

After careful analysis, Liu Xiangzhen came to the same conclusion.

It's just that Liu Xiangzhen's speculation on the development of the battle situation is very different from Bai Zhizhan.

According to his judgment, the narrow-minded navy has made so many moves to cover the breakthrough of the mobile fleet and let the remaining two aircraft carriers return to the Guia Ocean. Yesterday's battle proved the value of aircraft carriers, and no matter how stupid the commander of the Narrow Navy is, he will desperately protect the two fleet aircraft carriers.

Feelings, the current situation is that those who get aircraft carriers get sea power.

In addition, Liu Xiangzhen felt that Gao Ye probably did not come to Yanhai.

Entering the Yanhai Sea, sneaking into Chengjiang Port, and fighting with the special mixed forces is the mobile fleet commanded by Lan Yun, and the main team of Gao Ye has been looking at the east, at most after the mobile fleet enters the Yanhai, it will go north from Nanzhuhai to the east of the Shuangche Strait, so as to respond to the mobile fleet at a critical moment.

Besides, after fighting all day, the main team was not found, and the radio signal sent by the "Gate" was not intercepted.

No matter how calm Takano is, it is impossible for him to remain silent when the mobile fleet is being beaten.

In addition, Takano stayed in the Guia to better explain what happened after the battle.

To put it bluntly, if there is no Gao Ye to deploy troops in the rear, it is just a matter of relying on those corpse vegetarian guys in the Narrow Navy Military Command Department, can you have fun?

To talk about his status in the navy, Gao Ye is far above Liu Xiangzhen and Bai Zhizhan.

It's really comparable, he is at least the existence of He Yongxing and Liu Changxun, and the same as Liu Xiangzhen and Bai Zhizhan is actually Lan Yun below him. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't been able to find a suitable person to replace him as the commander of the permanent fleet, and his background was not noble, I am afraid that he would have sat in the position of commander-in-chief of the Sagai Navy several years ago, that is, after Admiral Yamashita retired.

Of course, this also shows from one side that Takano is more like a general, rather than a commander.

If the main team did not enter the Yanhai Sea and went north from Nanzhuhai in advance, it would definitely be able to rush to the Watchman Strait before the 27th, that is, in front of the home fleet.

The main team has six battleships!

Even if you count the two fast battleships that have not yet completed their training, the home fleet has only six battleships.

In addition, the only thing that covered the home fleet was the "Sea Dragon", which carried only more than 20 fighters, and behind the main team was the Third Air Force.

Although there is enough intelligence to prove that the total number of zero battles received by the Sagai Navy is less than 150, and it is very likely that the 96 ship battle assigned to the Third Air Force is still the 96 ship battle, and the two small fleet aircraft carriers of the Third Air Force may not be able to operate the cumbersome 97 ship attack normally, nor can they make the 99 ship take off with a full load, but there is also reason to believe that Takano will definitely not let the two aircraft carriers watch the excitement from behind.

In this case, the home fleet rushed to the Watchman Strait, it was simply to send it to death!

Obviously, this is what Liu Xiangzhen is most worried about.

Not heartache for the home fleet, but heartache for two fast battleships.

In addition, morale and morale have to be taken into account.

Don't forget, the twelve battleships of the Southern Fleet are lying in the port of Chengjiang, and if the home fleet suffers another heavy loss, I'm afraid many people will despair.

But what can it be?

According to the plan, the task force was to remain radio silent until the enemy fleet resumed engagement, or more precisely until it was discovered by the enemy.

Correspondence?

Planes had to be sent to nearby islands, and the closest one that could land carrier-based planes and garrison troops was Wing Yue Island in the Lilly Islands.

There's no way around it.

Don't forget that Nanzhu is an overseas territory of the Nuland Federation, and in the north of the Nanzhu Islands, there are several monitoring stations dedicated to intercepting radio signals. As long as the Imperial Navy's warships use longwave radios, they will be spotted and then located by triangulation.

Now, Liu Xiangzhen can only count on Bai Zhizhan to make a similar judgment and immediately make adjustments.

As long as the Third Air Task Force arrives in time, it will not only be able to cover the home fleet, but may also be able to surprise the Third Air Force of the Sagami Navy.

So, can Bai Zhizhan seize this opportunity?

Liu Xiangzhen did not doubt Bai Zhizhan's ability, but was worried about Bai Zhizhan's mind. To put it bluntly, is he willing to give up the honor of the total annihilation of the mobile fleet, not to compete with Liu Xiangzhen, to be willing to act as a green leaf, and to be a hard-working old scalper.

"Just got it."

When Zhuang Bisheng strode over, Liu Xiangzhen raised his right hand and glanced at his watch.

Unexpectedly, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.

"The Navy Command forwarded the news from Task Force 3."

Before Zhuang Bisheng's words were finished, Liu Xiangzhen snatched the telegram from his hand.

It was indeed the message sent by the White Stop War from the Third Air Task Force, to be precise, sent by an aircraft to Ashishima, sent back to the Naval Headquarters through the Imperial Navy's wired cable, and then relayed to the Task Force using the Naval Command's long-wave radio.

Bai Zhizhan did not disappoint Liu Xiangzhen, he had already made adjustments.

At about 1:30 a.m., the 3rd Air Task Force had already turned. If nothing happens, it will enter the Guia Ocean from the northernmost part of the Shuangche Strait before dawn along the offshore route close to Ashishima. To cover its whereabouts, the anti-submarine detachment at Ashishima will act synchronously.

As a result, tomorrow morning, the Third Air Task Force will focus on searching the waters southeast of the North and South Sadou Islands.

This is Liu Xiangzhen's speculation, which is not mentioned in the message.

In addition, in the additional content, the task of the task force is emphasized, the pursuit and annihilation of the mobile fleet.

It was this additional content that made Liu Xiangzhen believe that the inference he had made before was not wrong, and the main team commanded by Gao Ye was still in the Guia.

Based on this, Liu Xiangzhen made another bold speculation.

It is likely that the Fifth Air Force remained in South Zhuhai, responsible for receiving the mobile fleet that broke through, and did not follow the main force north to the Watchman Strait.

Now, the problem arises.

If Bai Zhizhan went to deal with the main force and the Third Air Force going south, then Liu Xiangzhen would have to face four aircraft carriers of the two fleets.

Two to four, are you sure?
