Chapter 500: The United States declares war on Japan

After eating, Chen Jinghui took Tang Yan around Beiping, inspected the construction of those government departments by the way, and gave some guidance on some problems on the spot, and then the prime minister exchanged views and went home with Tang Yan.

In the afternoon, Fang Jie had already gone back to Jiangxi in advance to prepare for Chen Jinghui's explanation. So in the evening, the real family sits together for a family dinner. Everyone chatted happily at the banquet, especially when Tang's mother looked at Chen Jinghui, the more she watched it, the more she liked it. really responded to that sentence, and the more the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more pleasing it became.

"Jinghui, the country has just been reunified, there must be a lot of things, what about you now as the deputy commander of the country and the deputy commander-in-chief of the national army, the courage on your shoulders is not light. The next few days are sure to be busy, so we don't force you to come back every day. If you have time, you can come back and see our two elders more often. During the banquet, Father Tang said.

"Dad, in the future, the National Political and Cultural Center will move to Beiping, and I will also work in Beiping, and I will definitely have time to go home often." Chen Jinghui said.

"Hehe, that's fine, but don't be too tired. If there are some things that you really can't do, don't force it, your body matters. Tang Mu said.

"Mom and Dad, I'm tired, that's for sure. Our country has just come out of war, and there is a lot to do. So I can only promise you to take care of yourself as much as possible and not let yourself be under too much pressure. Chen Jinghui said apologetically.

Reports

Just as Father Tang was about to speak again, Li Dali suddenly ran in, and then shouted a report in the courtyard.

"Something." Chen Jinghui turned around and asked.

"Commander, the commander has an urgent telegram, please return to Yan'an immediately." Li Dali said.

"Why can't you wait until tomorrow because of such an urgent matter?" Chen Jinghui said with a bitter face.

"Jinghui, it must be a national event for the commander to find you, you hurry up, don't delay things. Our two elders are fine, besides, isn't the swallow at home with us these days? Father Tang said.

"Well, you go quickly, don't delay things, my parents will leave it to me." Tang Yan said.

"Okay, Yanzi, my parents will ask you to take care of me. Mom and Dad, I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you another day. After Chen Jinghui finished speaking, he got up and left.

"Wait a minute, be careful yourself, don't get too tired."

Just when Chen Jinghui hadn't taken a few steps, Tang Yan stopped him, and then ran to him, tidied up his clothes, and his eyes were wet. They had just met and were about to separate for a day, and Tang Yan was a little reluctant.

"Yanzi, I'm sorry, when the country is stable in the future, I will have time." Chen Jinghui wiped Tang Yan's tears, then kissed him on the forehead, and then turned to leave.

"Dali, what the hell is going on, why is it so urgent." Chen Jinghui asked when he went out.

"Commander, look at this, it was sent by the commander." Li Dali handed the telegram to Chen Jinghui.

"What! Drive faster. After Chen Jinghui read the telegram, his eyes immediately widened, and Cui Cili began to speed up vigorously.

"Commander-in-chief, commander-in-chief"

An hour and a half later, Chen Jinghui arrived at the Yan'an Headquarters. He hurried to the door of the commander's office, and shouted without even knocking on the door. When he pushed open the door, he found that Deputy Commander Chiang and the Commander-in-Chief were already here.

"You're back so soon, you know everything." The commander saw Chen Jinghui coming back and said immediately.

"After the United States was attacked from Pearl Harbor, it has been quiet, why did it suddenly declare war on Japan." Chen Jinghui asked.

"We don't know this very well, and we only got the news in the evening. And after getting the news, we all notified you as soon as possible. The commander said.

"We just discussed it and felt that we need to step up our guard. If the United States declares war on Japan, it will certainly increase its troops in Southeast Asia again. Not only that, but they will definitely have a big battle with the devil navy at sea. We still can't tell whether the war between the two sides will affect us. The commander-in-chief said.

"We have been secretly walking very closely with the United States before, especially the Southeast Asian affairs, which have helped the United States a lot. Several of us are worried that the devil will go to war with us again. Deputy Commander Jiang said.

"It's possible, but there's nothing to worry about. As long as we prepare first, he will come, and we will not be afraid of him. Now my biggest concern is Taiwan, this place is the most dangerous. Chen Jinghui said.

"That's why we think that our navy is not mature enough, and its strength is very different from that of the United States and Japan. If the devils defeat the United States at sea, then they will definitely take off Taiwan again. Coupled with the fact that our one-year bilateral armistice is approaching, it is likely that they will not have any scruples. The commander-in-chief said.

"Well, the Director-General's analysis is very correct, and there is indeed a possibility. Now we just get the inside information, after all, the United States has not yet announced this. However, in order to prevent accidents, I recommend that you prepare in advance. Chen Jinghui proposed.

"Agreed," said the commander-in-chief.

"We have no opinion." The commander-in-chief and Deputy Commander Jiang said at the same time.

"Well, immediately issue an order in the name of the General Headquarters, ordering all military regions to enter the first level of combat readiness, doubling the daily patrols of the Air Force, and paying close attention to the movements of devils along the coast and borders." Chen Jinghui said.

"Alright, send it out immediately." The commander-in-chief signs and then issues the order.

"Alas, it's been quiet for less than a year, and it looks like there's going to be war again." The commander said depressedly.

"There is no way to do this, sometimes it is not that we want to fight, but we are forced to helpless." Deputy Commander Jiang said.

"Commander-in-chief, deputy commander-in-chief, commander-in-chief, in fact, you don't have to worry too much. There is a high probability that the current situation will affect us, but as long as we take a position in advance, I think there is little chance that we will be involved. Don't worry too much, just wait and see. Chen Jinghui said.

"I hope so." The three of them said yes, and then thought quietly.

"Commander, Commander, Commander looking for you."

Early the next morning, before Chen Jinghui woke up, Li Dali came to Chen Jinghui's door and knocked on the door.

"Why are you in such a hurry to find me early in the morning?" Chen Jinghui said impatiently.

"I don't know, I see that the commander is in a hurry. Both the commander-in-chief and the deputy commander-in-chief Chiang have passed. Li Dali said.

"Hmmm! I got it, I'll be there right away. ”

When Chen Jinghui heard that the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief Jiang had already passed, he immediately guessed that what he said last night had come true, and the United States had really declared war on Japan. So he got up immediately, and without washing his face, he knew that he was running to the commander's office.

"Jinghui, look at this, the Meiming code telegram I just received this morning, they have declared war on Japan." The commander said with a telegram in hand.

"It seems that the last sneak attack on Pearl Harbor really hurt them, and the Americans are ready to take revenge." Chen Jinghui said.

"Now let's not care what they think, let's see if they pose a threat to us now." said the commander-in-chief.

"It's hard to say about this now, we have to look at the deployment of troops in the United States and Japan." Chen Jinghui said.

"I've just mobilized some pictures of the Pacific Ocean from the satellite center, and you see, the United States seems to have reinforced, a huge fleet from the Pacific Ocean." The commander-in-chief said with some satellite images.

"That's right, for such a large navy, there are at least four or five aircraft carrier fleets. Coupled with the fact that they survived Pearl Harbor before and those docked in our Taiwan, there are ten aircraft carrier fleets combined. With such a large fleet, it seems that the United States is going to have a decisive battle with the devil at sea. Chen Jinghui said.

"That's true, I just don't know if they chose the battlefield there, whether it will be too close to our homeland." The commander said.

"Report,"

"Come in"

"Commander-in-chief, commander-in-chief, telegram from Commander Li of the Southeast Military Region." The staff officer handed the commander-in-chief a telegram.

"The U.S. aircraft carrier fleet has set sail for Taiwan, and its whereabouts are unknown." said the commander-in-chief.

"Hehe, good, very good, they don't bother in the world. Now that they're gone, it's much less likely that we'll be swept up in it. Chen Jinghui immediately laughed when he heard it.

"But they're gone, and if the Japanese navy comes back, what will we do?" Deputy Commander Jiang asked.

"It's unlikely. Now the United States has declared war on Japan, and this is something that the whole world knows. Although the Japanese navy was strong, it also had limits. According to intelligence, the Japanese army now has only a maximum of eight aircraft carrier fleets that can be used, which is comparable to the strength of the United States that is about to arrive. I think the reason why the United States withdrew Taiwan's aircraft carrier fleet was to avoid being divided and annihilated. They were trying to concentrate their forces and prepare to compete with the Japanese navy. Chen Jinghui analyzed.

"But what if the Japanese army attacks us in a frenzy. They have always done things without constraints, and they are all freewheeling. Deputy Commander Jiang said.

"This" Chen Jinghui didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Report, the United States and Japan have sent a note, saying that they are about to send a mission to our China to discuss matters." At this time, the secretary general of the commander-in-chief came in and said.

"Okay, got it, you go out." The commander-in-chief took the telegram, and then left the secretary general, and then turned his gaze to Chen Jinghui and them, as if asking what the United States and Japan meant.

"What are they playing, the contradictions between them, what are they looking for us to do." The commander-in-chief asked puzzled.

"Like, do you want us to help?" Deputy Commander Jiang said.

"I don't think it's that simple, they all come to us, it's definitely not a good thing." The commander said.
