The sudden change stunned everyone in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird, and all the staff generals of the Mi army secretly looked at Nimitz, expecting to see his thunderous anger, although Nimitz has always been mild-mannered and said to be a Confucian general, but this obviously offensive and slanderous words are obviously a great provocation to his authority, and it is difficult for anyone to swallow this breath.

But to everyone's surprise, Nimitz just shook his head with a wry smile, motioned to the staff general to continue his work, walked quickly in front of Jiang Haoran, and dragged him into the lounge on the side.

Closing the door, Nimitz said with a smile: "Jiang, this is my territory, you don't give me face so much, aren't you afraid that I will suddenly thunder and anger and let your blood splash on the spot?" ”

"You dare!" Jiang Haoran tilted his neck and glared angrily, "I'm afraid your gun hasn't been pulled out yet, my subordinates have already beaten you to pieces, don't you think that you can scare us if you have a lot of people, if you really fight, it's not certain who will kill the deer?" ”

"Yes, you Jiang Haoran is very powerful, once killed a heavily loaded squad of the island army with a big knife, and the snow wolf special combat team under your command is all ruthless characters who are one in a million and one in a hundred, you can kill all the officers and soldiers on the 'Bumblebee', and then jump into the sea one by one, from the upper reaches of the Pacific Ocean to Myanmar."

Nimitz said solemnly, Jiang Haoran didn't hold back after all, and laughed out loud, "You dead old man, you are really a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, let's say, why do you want to modify the battle plan temporarily, don't fool me with a broken aircraft carrier, the gains and losses of an aircraft carrier are nothing to the entire battle situation?" ”

The atmosphere eased down, and the expression on Nimitz's face was much more relaxed, and he stretched out his hand to signal Jiang Haoran to sit down, and then took out an iron box from the pocket of his military uniform, took out two cigars, and handed one to Jiang Haoran.

The two sat on the sofa and swallowed the clouds and fog for dozens of seconds, and then Nimitz said: "Chiang, the factional dispute is not only in your country, but also in our navy and army. The combat effectiveness of the Iowa has caused the sinking of the Iowa, which has caused extreme dissatisfaction among the top brass, if the Yorktown is sunk in my hands again, even if I win this war, my command skills will be questioned by many people, which is more than worth the loss for me and my navy, can you understand, Chiang? ”

Jiang Haoran said: "But have you thought about it, because the temporary change of the plan may lead to incomplete encirclement, and there will be a large number of island warships that have not yet entered the ambush circle, which is equivalent to giving them a chance to escape, which is a big discount for the main force of the combined fleet of the island army to annihilate this time." ”

Nimitz looked at Jiang Haoran with a complicated expression, and took a few puffs of cigarette before he said: "Jiang, you have an idiom in China called 'fishing with all your might', do you really know what it means?" ”

Jiang Haoran frowned suddenly, of course he understood the meaning of fishing with all his might, which meant draining the pond water and catching all the fish in the pond. The metaphor is short-sighted, focusing only on immediate interests and ignoring long-term plans. But he did not feel that this idiom had any connection with the battle at hand.

Nimitz didn't seem to expect him to answer, and continued: "One year army, ten years of air force, and one hundred years of navy, but no matter what kind of army it is, it will not grow up from the era of peace, all armies are developed and strengthened in war, and this development and growth is also conditional. At a time when the flames of war are burning everywhere, they may not have such a sense of distress, and they will think that the existing forces and weapons will be enough to deal with a group of remnants, and then the opportunity for the development and growth of the navy will be completely lost. And the African battlefield and the Soviet-German battlefield are still in full swing, and this opportunity for development and growth has been invisibly handed over to the army, so "

"So you keep the sheep for shearing?" Jiang Haoran took Nimitz's words and said.

Nimitz looked at Jiang Haoran and smiled, seemed to be very satisfied with the analogy, and gave him a thumbs up.

Jiang Haoran arched his hand at Nimitz in response to the situation, and said with a smile: "Old ghost, your tactics are not good, but your political skills are really superior, admire!" ”

This Jiang Haoran has no meaning of drama, to the country, to the navy, and even to himself, Nimitz's approach is not wrong, the development of the army does need a reasonable opportunity, although the war potential of the United States is amazing, but before the war there were only five aircraft carriers, the island army attacked Pearl Harbor, a pot of everything, so that their whole country is in a passive situation, if the navy does not take advantage of this opportunity to grow, who knows what army will take the opportunity to pounce on and take a bite next time, be prepared for danger in times of peace, there is nothing wrong with it, Although the purpose is somewhat impure, the result is commendable.

At this point, it is actually consistent with Jiang Haoran's current idea of running Myanmar, so it was immediately recognized by Jiang Haoran, and it can even be said to resonate.

"Old ghost?" Nimitz frowned, then smiled, "I've heard you call Stilwell 'old man' and now you call me 'old ghost', is there any difference between the two?" ”

Jiang Haoran laughed and said: "We also have an idiom in China called 'ghost horse elf', which praises people for being smart, and Stilwell is obviously inferior to you in this regard, so I gave you the word 'ghost' to praise you for being smart, how about it, are you happy?" ”

"Happy, aren't you?" Nimitz seemed to be a little unsure of whether Jiang Haoran was saying praise or derogation, so his answer was also a little vague, "None of this matters, the question is, can you agree with my approach?" ”

Jiang Haoran said with a straight face: "I think now whether I agree with it or not, I can't change your decision, so my opinion is no longer important." ”

"No, Jiang, you haven't understood what I mean, although your identity is just a staff officer in this battle, your opinions and opinions will directly affect the judgment of our high-level, so I hope you can help me to complete this matter perfectly, don't you worry, I won't let you help in vain, won't you have two aircraft carriers right away?" But don't you think that with Chen Shaokuan and those student soldiers who have been practicing on our ships for a year and a half, they can really make these two aircraft carriers play their due combat effectiveness? It's a bit of a child's play, but if I send you a group of key officers to help you through this run-in period, it will be completely different. ”
