The soldiers are also treacherous, and they are surprisingly victorious.

There must be a war between Tang and Japan, which was destined a few years ago, so when Tang and Japan went to war again, all Shijie countries were not surprised.

However, the Tang and Japanese countries regarded each other as mortal enemies, and the Japanese army was always looking for an opportunity to sneak attack the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang army was also constantly studying the possibility of a surprise victory in the war against Japan. It is precisely because both sides have been carefully guarding each other and paying close attention to each other's military operations that it is difficult to launch a surprise attack to achieve the effect of a strategic campaign, and all sneak attacks seem unlikely.

The international media has been speculating about where the first battle between the Tang and Japanese armies will be fought, and Wall Street believes that a large-scale naval battle between Tang and Japan will first break out in the Pacific Ocean to determine the ownership of sea supremacy. The Times boldly speculated that the Japanese army would sneak attack Guam and seize the strategic springboard for attacking the Tang Empire, which is also the best strategy to defend Taiwan, after all, Taiwan is far away from Japan, the Ogasawara Islands in the east have been occupied by the Tang Dynasty, the south is Guam controlled by the Tang Army, the west is Chinese mainland, and the north is only connected by the Ryukyu Islands, once the war starts, the Tang Army is likely to easily block the waters around Taiwan, the Japanese Navy is very slow to help, and lacks the support of important naval bases, so it is better to simply defend Taiwan than to take the initiative to seize Guam, After all, Guam has a large naval base and air base built by the Tang Army, and once the Japanese army captures it, it will inflict heavy damage on the Tang Army, and in turn, the Tang Army's use of Guam to attack Taiwan will also pose a fatal threat to the Japanese army.

In August, typhoons are a frequent occurrence of typhoons over the North Pacific Ocean.

In this era, weather forecasting was not developed although. But it can also make a big difference.

In the Taipei Town Guard Mansion, the commander of the Japanese army, Okada Zhenxiong, convened the highest military meeting. One of the training staff officers is briefing on the weather and sea state forecasts for the surrounding areas of Taiwan in the past month.

According to the information released by the Imperial Meteorological Agency: "The center of Tropical Storm No. 4 "Butterfly" this year has formed at around 9 o'clock this morning at the junction of Guam and the Philippines, and is expected to make landfall in the Tainan area in the next three days. At that time, the maximum wind near the center will be 20 meters per second. The center of the storm is expected to move northwest at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour, sweeping across the entire province of Taiwan, and then gradually approaching the coast of central and southern Fujian. ”

"Under the combined influence of butterflies and the southwest monsoon, in the next half month, most of the sea surface of the South China Sea, the ocean east of the Philippines, the Bass Strait, the Balintang Strait, the central and southern coasts of Taiwan, the sea surface of southeastern Taiwan, the Taiwan Strait, the southern sea of the East China Sea, as well as the coastal areas of Fujian and the southern coast of Zhejiang will have strong winds of 6-8 levels, and gusts of up to 9-10 in some sea areas. There will be heavy to heavy rain in eastern and southern Taiwan, most of Fujian, and eastern Guangdong, and some areas will have heavy or extremely heavy rain. ”

Shimo Ino, commander of the Penghu Fleet stationed in Taiwan, asked: "What is the situation of the wind and waves in the Bass Strait?" ”

The training staff officer replied: "It is expected that there will be 7-10 meters of waves in the next seven days. ”

Ino Shineo suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "That's good." The Don fleet will not be able to sail for seven days, and we will have at least seven days to prepare, when General Onodera Itsunori will lead an aircraft carrier battle group to come in for reinforcements. ”

Zhenxiong Okada also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's right! Although we have been operating in Taiwan for decades. Especially in recent years, we have built coastal fortifications, fortress batteries, and anti-aircraft positions on a large scale. Taiwan is already impregnable, and no matter how arrogant the Tang Army is, it will never want to take Taiwan. But be careful to make the Wannian ship, I have already sent a telegram to the base camp to request support, the base camp has mobilized heavy support, including two main divisions, and five air wings for air support, which will take a week at the earliest, just in time to be deployed before the Tang army comes to attack. ”

The generals immediately breathed a sigh of relief. His complexion was moistened.

All along, the Japanese generals were under the influence of the terror and high pressure of the Tang Army. The Tang Army was frightened. When the Tang Empire issued an ultimatum to Japan, they were already panicking, because they were afraid of the Tang Army's terrifying bombing, after all, it had razed Tokyo to the ground, the Japanese emperor was blown up alive, and the sacred belief of the Japanese nation, the Yasukuni Shrine and the three major shrines, were all destroyed, which almost destroyed the soul sustenance of the Japanese, so they hated and feared the Tang Dynasty.

Now that Tang and Japan have declared war again, and the Japanese army has learned from the Nationalist Government that the target of the Tang Army this time is not Japan but Taiwan, these Japanese military officials guarding Taiwan suddenly turned to ashes, and they were extremely sad, they were afraid of the Tang Army's crazy bombing, which was a fear from the depths of their hearts.

Hearing that the typhoon passed through Taiwan during this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because they knew that no matter how awesome the Tang army was, it would be impossible for them to launch an attack in the typhoon.

Just when the Japanese army in Taiwan was sitting back and relaxing, a certain sea area north of Guam, the huge aircraft carrier battle group of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire gathered here.

At this time, the Datang Navy already had eight main large aircraft carriers and more than 100 converted escort aircraft carriers, including four Tianwang-class aircraft carriers, 20 escort aircraft carriers, 18 Poseidon-class light cruisers, 22 Fengshen-class destroyers, 13 submarines, 11 large dock landing ships, two hospital ships, more than 100 troop carriers, and logistics supply ships to form a task force to participate in the combat operation of attacking Taiwan, which was personally commanded by Admiral Li Dingxin.

The other four Doukui-class aircraft carriers and more than 80 escort aircraft carriers were assembled in the Northern Islands, which were the Ogasawara Islands occupied by the Tang Empire from Japan, where the Tang Army built an advance base for attacking the Japanese mainland, and built five large military airfields, one naval base, and nine supply depots.

The operation of the General Staff of the Tang Army was to contain the main force of the Japanese Navy, cooperate with the First Task Force to attack Taiwan, and prevent the Japanese army from reinforcing Taiwan.

The original intention of the Tang Army's second aircraft carrier battle group in the Northern Islands was to contain the Japanese aircraft carrier battle group so that it would try not to go south to reinforce Taiwan.

In the conference room of the headquarters of the aircraft carrier Fleet Headquarters, Li Dingxin and a leading group of generals were holding a meeting to discuss how to attack Taiwan.

In the same way, they have just finished listening to the weather forecast of the Operations Staff Office for the recent period, and it is very important for the generals to grasp the time of day.

"The weather is not favorable for our fleet to attack, and it looks like the attack time is going to be delayed."

Most of the generals shook their heads and sighed, the advantage of the Tang army is in the air, and the hurricane storm caused by the typhoon passing through Taiwan and the surrounding areas will make the fighters unable to take off, which is equivalent to the failure of the Tang army's most powerful weapons.

"It's not impossible! I don't know if you have ever thought that this typhoon can also be used, maybe it will allow us to achieve a surprising victory! ”

Li Dingxin's sudden words suddenly quieted down in the conference room. (To be continued......)
