Chapter 582: The Smell of Gunsmoke

"Lao Chen, what do you mean by what you said the deputy commander-in-chief, why don't you let us go back to Hong Kong." Commander Chen Shaokuan asked Chen Hu.

"Hehe, Commander Chen, can't you really see it, look at where we are staying now." Chen Hu said with a smile.

"Hmm!! Could it be that the deputy commander-in-chief is ready to ......," Commander Chen said halfway.

"Hehe, don't say, don't say. To tell the truth, my nephew, who is the deputy commander-in-chief, is very powerful militarily, and he sees much more militarily than those of us. So since he has this idea, compared to what new plan he has, this is the arrangement. Now that we're docked here, that's the best proof of that. Chen Hu said.

"Alas...... I really didn't expect that his deputy commander-in-chief would think so long-term. Commander Chen said.

"Hehe, okay, all we have to do now is to resupply our ships, and then send the supply ships back to port to resupply, so as to ensure the logistics of our fleet, which is still adrift at sea." Chen Hu proposed.

"Order all ships to replenish immediately, and after the replenishment is completed, order the supply ships to return to port immediately to replenish." Commander Chen gave the order.

For the next three days, Chen Jinghui stayed in the war room, carefully studying the situation near the Philippines, and then thinking about how to deploy to take the Philippines as soon as possible.

This attack on the Japanese army in the Philippines and the occupation of the Philippines was an anomalous landing battle, and it was necessary to make detailed plans. Battles need to be fought quickly, and they must not be dragged into the mud.

"Pick up the Shanghai Shipyard."

"Hey, I'm Chen Jinghui."

"Hello Deputy Commander-in-Chief."

"Has our helicopter Shanghai combat platform been tested?"

"Report to the deputy commander-in-chief, the two helicopter maritime mobile warships are still in the testing stage, and it is expected that the test will be completed in about half a month."

"Very good, test as soon as possible, and let me know when it's done."

"Yes"

"It doesn't look like that's going to work for the time being."

Hanging up the phone, Chen Jinghui said helplessly to himself. Now the naval landing is possible, but if you want to occupy the whole of the Philippines quickly, helicopter landing is the best way. But the helicopter has a limited flight range and simply cannot fly there from Huaxia.

There was no way, Chen Jinghui could only continue to wait, but he was not idle during the waiting time. First of all, he transferred the army aviation units of the Southwest Military Region from the company division to the coast, ready to kick ships at any time. At the same time, an army aviation division was mobilized from the Central Military Region to Guangzhou, and some large landing ships were mobilized to dock in Guangzhou. In this way, everything is going on in a tense and orderly manner.

Although half a month is a long time, for Chen Jinghui, who has been busy, it is over in the blink of an eye. Half a month later, in the morning, he received a call from the director of the Shanghai shipyard.

"Hey, I'm Chen Jinghui."

"Hello Deputy Commander-in-Chief, the two helicopter warships have been tested and can be successfully delivered to the Navy."

"Very good, let the navy receive it immediately, and then set sail for the port of Guangzhou immediately."

"Yes."

"Haha, it's finally time to get started."

Chen Jinghui hung up the phone and was very happy, everything else was ready these days, just waiting for this helicopter battleship. Now that it can be successfully delivered to the navy, then Chen Jinghui's plan can be implemented.

"Pick up the Southwest Military Region."

"I'm Chen Jinghui, the helicopter warship has been delivered to the navy and is moving towards Guangzhou Port, so I order your unit to kick the ship as soon as the helicopter warship arrives at Guangzhou Port."

"Yes"

"Bai Chongxi of Taiwan Bay."

"Hey, I'm Chen Jinghui, General Bai Chongxi."

"Hello Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I'm Bai Chongxi."

"General Bai, immediately order the troops and helicopters assembled in Taiwan Bay to board the ship."

"Yes"

"Immediately send a telegram to Commander Chen of the Navy, ordering them to send two aircraft carrier fleets to start cruising in the South China Sea to ensure the absolute safety of our landing ships."

"Report to Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Navy Commander Chen reports that Deputy Commander Chen Hu has led two aircraft carrier fleets and set off."

"Good, hehe."

"Pick me up General Xue Yue of the Southwest Military Region."

"Hey, I'm Xue Yue."

"General Xue Yue, I'm Chen Jinghui."

"Hello Deputy Commander-in-Chief."

"Well, I've got a task for you. Our army is preparing to launch a landing operation against the Japanese army occupying the Philippines, and I appoint you as the commander-in-chief of this campaign, and immediately land the aircraft carrier Huaxia docked in the South China Sea for command. ”

"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission."

"Very good, morale, report to me in time if there is any difficulty."

"Yes, please rest assured that the deputy commander-in-chief will definitely take Southeast Asia as soon as possible."

"Well, help you succeed sooner."

Chen Jinghui hung up the phone after speaking. He ordered a series of troops that had already been assembled and ready to start the operation, and everyone immediately got busy. In particular, the Marine Corps, since there was no Japanese army in China, they have been training and have hardly participated in actual combat.

This time, when they heard that they were going to land in the Philippines to fight against Japan, they were very happy, but they were very happy with these officers and men. Now they have 500,000 marines, and they are moldy when they don't use them.

"Report, General Xue Yue reports, all units have arrived at the designated position."

"Very good, order them to start approaching the Philippines and wait for orders."

"Yes"

Two days later, all the troops had arrived in the South China Sea on landing ships and were under the protection of five aircraft carrier fleets. All the troops were in place, and Xue Yue immediately reported to Chen Jinghui.

But these days, although all of Chen Jinghui's actions are carried out as secretly as possible, some rumors still leaked and were detected by the agents of the empire.

"Your Excellency President, according to the report of our agents lurking in Taiwan, it seems that there has been some big move in China recently." McHathur said.

"Hmm??? Big move, you said in detail. Roosevelt said.

"Your Excellency, according to the secret report, China has recently sent a large number of additional troops to Taiwan, as well as their helicopter gunships. What's even more strange is that these troops all disappeared a day ago, and they are all gone. McHather said.

"What, how could hundreds of thousands of troops disappear so quickly, they must have been secretly mobilized and left." Roosevelt said.

"The president is right, a few days ago, a large number of warships did appear in Taiwan Bay. And today I just received a report from secret agents in Guangzhou, China, that they have discovered a strange warship in Guangzhou. It is said that it looks like an aircraft carrier but is smaller than a small aircraft carrier, but it is not, it is very similar to an aircraft carrier. McHather said.

"Hmm??? What the hell is Huaxia doing, what do you do if you are a four-like. Roosevelt asked.

"I don't know, what is the capability of this kind of warship, and what purpose it is for will have to continue reconnaissance to know. However, during this period of time, Huaxia's frequent troop movements must have taken action. McHather said.

"Oh! You're saying they're going to attack somewhere. Roosevelt said.

"That's right, they must be secretly preparing to attack somewhere. According to the report, the five aircraft carrier fleets that appeared in Britain a few days ago have not returned to Hong Kong. I have sent reconnaissance planes to check other waters, but I have found no trace of them. Then now there is only one possibility, they have entered the waters of Huaxia. Since there is an identification zone in China, our military reconnaissance planes cannot enter at all, so it is impossible to determine the specific location of the Huaxia aircraft carrier fleet and their intentions at present. McHather said.

"Well, you're right. But now most of Southeast Asia is occupied by China, and the rest is also under the control of the Japanese army, and we basically have no interests there. So no matter what Huaxia is going to do, it doesn't have much to do with us. Now our main task is to seize the time to restore our naval strength and then return to Asia. Roosevelt said.

"Your Excellency, I suspect that Huaxia is preparing to take action against the Japanese army in Southeast Asia. After all, the two countries have been at war for many years, and Huaxia has always suffered. Now that Huaxia is strong, it will definitely take revenge. McHather said.

"Well, that makes sense. We are still allies with Japan, you go to comrades Japan, and let them be careful. When we return to Asia, we will probably need the help of Japan. Roosevelt said.

"What! Huaxia has the intention of attacking our territory in Southeast Asia. ”

Soon Emperor Akihito received news from the United States, and he was very surprised. He couldn't believe that Huaxia could already have the ability to fight in the ocean.

"Your Majesty, the reminder of the United States is very correct, the current Huaxia is very different from before, their navy once went to the UK to fight a few days ago, which shows that the strength of their navy has been improved. Therefore, we still need to take precautions and send the navy to reinforce as soon as possible. Hideki Tojo said.

"Your Majesty, our navy already has a fleet of nautical meters in Southeast Asia, which can temporarily protect our interests in Southeast Asia." Yamamoto said.

"Yo Xi, it seems that Yamamoto-kun has been prepared for a long time, so that's good. However, to prevent a sneak attack from China, it is better to remind our troops in Southeast Asia to be prepared. Emperor Akihito said.

"Hay, let's do it."

Hideki Tojo and Isoroku Yamamoto left the palace, and immediately went to arrange the defense of Southeast Asia.

"Pick up Commander Xu of the Northwest Military Region."

"Hey, I'm Chen Jinghui, how are you preparing now?"

"Report to the deputy commander-in-chief, everything is ready to launch an attack on the Japanese army at any time."

"Very well, it's nine o'clock, and ten o'clock will be launched on time."

"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission."

"Good, good luck."

Chen Jinghui hung up the phone, then looked in the direction of Southeast Asia, slowly closed his eyes, and began to wait.
