Li Ran smiled and said to Xiao Xiong:

"I think we'll take advantage of Yamamoto's dizziness to get rid of the spy ace in his hand."

Li Ran turned his head to look at Bai Yu again, and then said:

"Bai Yu and I have come up with a way to eliminate the devil spy team, I don't know if it will work, let's give an idea."

Bai Yu hurriedly took out a detailed map of Jiujiang, put it on the table and spread it out, and then pointed to a place on the map and said:

"We're planning to get rid of them right here."

"Is it Miaozhipu? Isn't it all burned down by the devils? ”

"Yes, we're going to destroy them in Myozhipu." Bai Yu said categorically, "After the devil burned down Miaozhipu, for a long time, the villagers didn't dare to go home to rebuild their homes. Later, we found Liu Huanteng, the county magistrate of Jiujiang County, and Peng Fugui, the puppet police chief, and asked them to find the new gendarmerie captain. I don't know how they dredged up the relationship, and the devils also felt that this matter had been a long time coming, plus the devils wanted to establish the 'Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere' and the 'royal paradise' for the so-called 'Sino-friendly friendship'

, so he allowed the villagers of Miaozhipu who were left behind to go home. ”

Bai Yu continued:

"My father took out all the money from the family, helped everyone buy some daily necessities and urgently needed production tools, and asked everyone to go to our Bai family's mountain to cut down big trees to make houses. No, it didn't take long for our Wisdom Shop to be slowly rebuilt. ”

"Oh, I see. That's good, we have another place to settle down in the future. Everyone suddenly realized, and they all smiled with satisfaction, and kept praising Daddy Bai's kindness and righteousness.

Xiao Xiong looked at the map silently and frowned. When Bai Yu saw it, he hurriedly touched her lightly and asked:

"What's wrong? Having trouble with the plan? Isn't that impossible? ”

Xiao Xiong looked at Bai Yu, shook his head, and said:

"The villagers of Miaozhipu have finally rebuilt their homes, and they have made great sacrifices for the war of resistance. If there is a little omission in this battle, Miaozhipu will usher in another bloody storm, which may bring disaster to the villagers. ”

"That's nothing, I sent someone to find my dad the other day. He is very open-minded, and when he hears that he is going to fight devils, he doesn't know how happy and positive he is. He brought in and said that he had discussed it with the whole village, and the villagers said that as long as they could kill more devils, let alone a few houses, they would not hesitate to fight for the surnames of the whole village. He also said that when we have defeated the Oriental Japanese invaders, we will rebuild our homes and live a peaceful life, and if we burn a few houses, then what is the pity? ”

As soon as everyone heard Daddy Bai's words, they couldn't help but be enthusiastic. Xiong Qiang stood up, pointed to the map and said:

"It would be better if we didn't put the battle in Miaozhipu, so as not to disturb the villagers and bring them trouble. Li Ran, Bai Yu, if you go to improve the battle plan, every detail must be taken into account to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

"Yes. We'll discuss it now. The two immediately began to refine their battle plans.

Yamamoto has been very bored these days, and sent Xingzi to ambush the troops of the Einsatzgruppen, but not only did he not win, but he was also inexplicably blown up by others, and lost a lot of personnel.

Today is November 24th, and according to the information obtained from China, the base camp has gathered the vast majority of the Empire's naval forces, led by his cousin General Yamamoto Go[***], and is about to start a major battle in the history of the world. It is said that everything is ready in the country and will soon be in action in the next few days. No, not only have all the elite troops of the empire stationed in northern Jiangxi been replaced, they have all been transferred to the south, and even the troops of the Yue Army who confronted the army of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi and the army of China's Ninth Theater have also been transferred to the south. Now, the Emperor [***] team is ready to deal a heavy blow to the enemy.

During this time, with the transfer of elite troops, although it was said that the troops were replenished, how could the newly transferred troops be compared with the main forces, they were all newly recruited recruits and had never fought a battle. The 11th Army Commander's Department was also aware of these conditions, and they ordered Yamamoto not to act rashly, but to cooperate with the plan of action of the base camp, as long as it could ensure that there were no major problems in the occupied areas in the rear of the army. Yamamoto's failure in this operation was reprimanded by the commander.

Yamamoto asked his staff officer to call Shinjiro Abe, the leader of the secret spy team, and ask him to come to the headquarters.

After a while, Abe came to Yamamoto's office. Excited, he walked straight to Yamamoto's desk, quickly pulled out a few maps from the briefcase he was carrying, and took out some telegrams.

"Yamamoto-kun, come and take a look."

Yamamoto felt that Abe's behavior today was a little strange, so he got up and walked to the other side of the table.

"Abe-kun, what kind of tricks are you playing? How about I asked you to find the Einsatzgruppen? ”

"Commander Yamamoto, don't worry, come and see, what is this?"

Yamamoto stepped forward and bent down to look at the map on the table. I saw that this was a map of the Pacific Ocean, and several red arrows were drawn on the map, one of which was the thickest red arrow from the northern part of the Pacific Ocean to a string of islands in the middle of the distant Pacific Ocean, which should be the Hawaiian Islands of the United States.

This look can scare Yamamoto enough, he looked at the triumphant Abe, pointed to the red arrows, and stammered a little asked:

"Abe-kun, this ...... What the hell is going on? ”

Abe laughed, raised his head, and said:

"This is a good thing for the Empire! An earth-shattering event is about to happen in the world. ”

Abe walked to the door of the office and waved to the sentries who were standing guard outside the door, signaling them to stay away from the house. Then he closed the door, walked up to Yamamoto, put his mouth close to Yamamoto's ear and whispered:

"The Pacific War is about to begin, and your cousin, Admiral Fifty-Six Yamamoto, the hero of the empire, the commander of the Combined Fleet, is about to lead our great army to attack the United States!"

"Ahh Yamamoto was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to come to his senses:

"Didn't you say to attack the South Seas? Why are you going to fight the United States again? ”

Abe pulled Yamamoto, who was still in a daze, to the edge of the sofa and sat down. He said to Yamamoto:

"My spy team has recently received a series of telegrams from the Imperial base camp, all of which are orders for fleet movements. Like you, I started thinking I was going to attack Southeast Asia. Today, however, a telegram has been sent to me by my relatives in the Cabinet. There are only a few words in it, 'Hawaii'. I was puzzled, looked at the map for a long time, and then contacted some recent telegrams from the base camp, and started working on the map. Only then did I understand that the target of Commander Yamamoto's attack this time was the US Pacific Fleet on the island of Oahu in the Hawaiian Islands! ”

"Ahh It's just incredible. Yamamoto was already sweating on his head, and he muttered in his mouth, I don't know if he was talking about his cousin Yamamoto Fifty-six, or Shinjiro Abe.

Things are indeed as Yamamoto said, absolutely incredible. While Yamamoto was talking to Abe, he was in full swing to dispatch troops, and the military headquarters was constantly issuing combat orders. A thrilling war that shocked the world is quietly kicking off.

Admiral Yamamoto 56 has been appointed commander of the Combined Fleet of the Navy and commander of the Navy.

On 16 November, the task force codenamed "Mobile Force" was concentrated at Neihaikou. It was a large fleet, commanded by Vice Admiral Tadaichi Nagumo, and it consisted of 6 aircraft carriers, 2 fast battleships equipped with 14-inch cannons, 2 heavy cruisers, 1 light cruiser, 9 destroyers, 3 oil tankers, and 1 supply ship.

In accordance with the order of Admiral Gochi Yamamoto, commander of the Combined Fleet, Vice Admiral Tadaichi Nagumo ordered the mobile unit to deliberately stagger the departure dates of the various ship formations in order to conceal their operational intentions, and on the 17th began to march one after another towards Single-Crown Bay on the southern tip of the Kuril Islands, the fleet's assembly site.

On November 24, 1941, according to Yamamoto's instructions, the ships participating in the battle were assembled and made final preparations for the voyage.

At 6 a.m. on 26 November, the Nagumo Mobile Force set anchor and left the harbor, led by three submarines, and quietly sailed through the rough North Pacific Ocean, extremely secretly, to the standby sea area at 42 degrees north latitude and 170 degrees west longitude, where they would wait for the final order -- to attack.

In addition to the main air attack force led by Vice Admiral Nagumo, the Combined Fleet also formed a related force to cooperate with the operation.

Vice Admiral Mitsumi Shimizu, commander of the Sixth Fleet, commanded the advance formation, which consisted of:

Rear Admiral Tsutoshi Sato, commander of the 1st Submarine Squadron, commanded the 1st Submarine Force, which commanded four submarines, and their mission was to deploy a campaign northeast of Oahu to attack ships that the US military might launch a counterattack.

Rear Admiral Shigeti Yamazaki, commander of the Second Submarine Squadron, commanded the Second Submarine Force, which had seven submarines under its command, and deployed in the Kauai Strait and the Kajwe Strait between Oahu, Kauai and Molokai Islands, monitoring and waiting for an opportunity to attack the US forces.

Rear Admiral Shigeyoshi Miwa, commander of the 3rd Submarine Squadron, commanded the 3rd Submarine Force, which has nine submarines under its command, which are deployed in the waters south of Oahu to attack ships that the US forces may launch a counterattack.

The commander of the 3rd Submarine Group, Sasaki Hanjiu Naval Force, commanded the special attack force, and each of the five submarines under his command carried a pocket submarine, and the pocket submarines were released before the air raid, and the pocket submarines infiltrated the harbor on their own, and only after the first attack wave began could they take advantage of the chaos to launch torpedoes from under the water to attack.

In addition, it is equipped with an important reconnaissance unit, consisting of two submarines, which reconnoiter the Pacific islands of Fiji, Samoa and the Aleutian Islands.

Six tankers formed a supply force and were deployed on the mainland and in the Kwajalein Islands to provide fuel for the advance force's submarines.

Rear Admiral Otari Sentaro, commander of the 1st Destroyer Squadron, commanded the alert force, which had one light cruiser and nine destroyers, and was responsible for providing alert for air attack and supply units.

Vice Admiral Mikawa Gunichi Commander, commander of the 3rd Sentai Force, commanded the support force, which consisted of two battleships and two heavy cruisers, and was responsible for providing support to the air attack forces, mainly against the large surface warships of the US army.

The commander of the 2nd Submarine Group, Admiral Imaka Izumiki, commanded the patrol force, which consisted of three submarines and sailed ahead of the formation route to take on reconnaissance and vigilance.

The commander of the 7th Destroyer Group, Konishi Dignita, commanded the Midway Attack Force, which consisted of two destroyers and one supply ship, and was tasked with shelling Midway Island to contain the American forces.

It was accompanied by a supply unit of seven tankers, which were mainly responsible for refueling the formation at sea.

It can be said that Yamamoto Isoroku was indeed an outstanding admiral, and such a huge combat operation could only be imagined by Yamamoto, who was born as a gambler, and this gambler had staked almost all the belongings in the navy, ready to gamble with opponents who were much stronger than himself.

However, Washington's negotiations with the United States are still going on in a pretend. The Chinese military has also dispatched a large number of warships and planes to operate on the mainland, simulated aircraft carrier formations, and frequently conducted radio contacts in order to give the United States the illusion that "its main fleet is still operating on its own territory."
