Chapter 1568: Dumb Loss

Jiang Haoran smiled knowingly, this old ghost is really unconvinced of his IQ, he wants to test himself when he has the opportunity, of course he will not show timidity, he picked up a pen and paper from the table and pushed it to Nimitz, and said with a smile: "Okay, we all wrote it on paper, don't guess it right when the time comes, you will temporarily change the answer." ”

Nimitz nodded at Jiang Haoran and said, "You really don't leak?" ”

But he didn't refuse Jiang Haoran's proposal, so he naturally picked up a pen and paper and wrote with a brush.

Almost at the same time, they both put down their pens and pushed the paper in their hands towards the middle of the conference table, and everyone tilted their heads over, dumbfounded at the first glance.

Both of them had the same place name written in English on their paper - the Dutch East Indies.

The room erupted in applause, followed by applause.

"Jiang, you are really not simple, can you tell me how you saw it?" Nimitz asked.

The corners of Jiang Haoran's mouth hooked slightly, revealing a signature smile, and said: "It's very simple, you Mi people are also people who will be avenged, the Seventh Fleet has suffered such a big loss this time, you have to get this field back." At present, most of the troops of the Mi Army and the British Army are invested in the preparation for the Normandy landing battle, and you can't transfer excess troops, so the Australian Army has become your first choice, so Prime Minister John will appear here at this moment. ”

Jiang Haoran said this in his mouth, in fact, he still had other plans in his heart, the current good manufacturing power and combat effectiveness of the Chinese Pacific Fleet, its army and air force have completely crushed the island army, and its expansion in Southeast Asia is even more powerful, all of which have made the Mi Ying authorities like a man's back, and the strong sense of crisis forces them to wonder if he Jiang Haoran will set his sights on the Dutch East Indies next.

Although the Mi army is quite strong in his mouth, he is actually very empty in his heart, especially at this critical moment of opening up the second battlefield in Europe, Mi Ying has no time to separate, they are very worried that their ambitions will be inflated, and they will really take down the Dutch East Indies, and they will not leave on it, Singapore is a vivid example.

Jiang Haoran could even foresee that with the arrival of Nimitz, there must be a powerful aircraft carrier fleet of the Mi army, and it is not certain that the entire Pacific Fleet will come back.

After all, with the rapid development of the Mi Army in the past two years, the number of aircraft carriers has increased dramatically, and there are already more than 100 ships, even if the Pacific Fleet is completely withdrawn, the Mi country also has the Atlantic Fleet and the British Royal Fleet, and they are enough to deal with the next Normandy landing battle.

Therefore, even under the premise that the war situation was so tense, the Mi authorities still transferred Nimitz back to the Pacific theater.

When they were transferred back, it was originally a tactical detour, hoping that the island countries could consume the strength of China's Pacific Fleet, who knew that Jiang Haoran was cunning, and as soon as he made a move to lead the water to the east, he transferred the main fleet of the island army to the opposite side of the Mi-British fleet, and after a battle, the Chinese fleet was almost unscathed, and laid down Hainan Island as scheduled, destroying the second island chain defense line carefully constructed by the island army, but the Anglo-Mi fleet suffered an unprecedented catastrophe.

This dumb man can't eat it.

Nimitz obviously didn't know that Jiang Haoran still had such a thought in his heart, and shrugged his shoulders and smiled with a good feeling: "You're all right, but what do you think?" ”

Jiang Haoran hesitated slightly, and did not rush to make a statement, proposing to take a look at their entire plan first.

Nimitz personally opened a leather document bag beside him, took out a stack of documents from it and handed it to Jiang Haoran, saying that this was their overall plan.

Jiang Haoran didn't say much, took the documents and browsed them one by one, looking at them very slowly and carefully.

The plan of the Mi army was roughly to unite the allied forces of Mi, China, Britain, and Australia to attack the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines with all their might.

The Mi Army dispatched ten main aircraft carriers and twelve escort aircraft carriers (the biggest feature of escort aircraft carriers is that they are small, generally flat flight decks, and the island-style superstructure is much smaller than that of conventional aircraft carriers. Unlike light aircraft carriers, which are converted from combat ships, escort aircraft carriers are mostly converted from merchant ships, so they are smaller aircraft carriers and are used to escort merchant ships. They are generally deployed in front of a convoy of carriers, using carrier-based aircraft to reconnoiter and attack submarines, or to guide surface ships to carry out attacks. In addition to escorting escorts, escort aircraft carriers often play the role of transport ships. After the Battle of Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt stressed the need to build more escort aircraft carriers. To this end, the Maritime Commission proposed a plan for mass production, and with the strong strength of the United States industry, it took only one year for the United States shipyard to build 50 escort aircraft carriers, which were named the Casablanca class. There were more than 1,000 other battleships, cruisers, submarines, and landing ships, and the strength was allocated to eight divisions, including four divisions of the Marine Corps, two tank divisions, and two airborne divisions.

The British dispatched the East India Fleet, three aircraft carriers, three marine divisions, and one armored division, which basically only supplemented the original East India Fleet and added one armored division.

On the Chinese side, there are no less than 10 aircraft carriers, 10 army divisions, and 200,000 tank divisions.

But the real big head is still the Australian army, although their navy is weak, they don't even have a single aircraft carrier, only 2 heavy cruisers, 4 light cruisers, and 5 destroyers, but they have a lot of logistics support and auxiliary ships, and they all came out this time.

Moreover, they will devote 25 divisions and 400,000 troops to this campaign.

That's a lot for a country with a population of less than seven million.

The specific deployment of troops was that the combined forces of the United States, Britain, and Australia surrounded the entire Dutch East Indies and launched an attack from all directions.

The Chinese army is in charge of the Philippines and launches an attack from Manila to completely cut off the support base of the island army.

At the same time, the US army and the Australian army will also have a surprise army, going straight to the Mariana Islands in the east of the Philippines, first seizing Saipan, and then attacking Tinian and Guam, the purpose of which is also to cut off the logistics of the island army and isolate all the island troops in the entire Philippines and the Dutch East Indies.

More than a dozen pieces of paper, Jiang Haoran looked at it for nearly an hour and it was not over, everyone showed great patience, waited quietly, and looked at Jiang Haoran one by one with a strange and nervous expression, especially Jiang Haoran's face was often cloudy and uncertain, which made them also uneasy, for fear that Jiang Haoran would suddenly burst out uncooperative.

Fortunately, Jiang Haoran didn't do this, and he didn't rush to speak after reading the plan, but changed his sitting position, lay down comfortably on the back of the chair, lit a cigarette by himself, and smoked silently with a complicated expression.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became more solemn, and everyone began to fidget a little, but none of them dared to disturb the battle between the heavens and the people, and even his breathing became cautious.
