Even Chamberlain, who had always adopted a policy of appeasement, tried his best to persuade the king, regardless of whether the Channel Fleet was sent at the same time as the British Home Fleet, to monitor and escort the German fleet through the English Channel, and wait for these German ships to use the English Channel before the British ships could be regarded as sending the plague away, of course, if Britain wanted to fight Germany at this time, it could also destroy all these German surface ships, the question was whether Britain had the courage to provoke a war? It is clear that Britain does not, and now Britain is trying to avoid war.

The entire German escort fleet departed from Germany through the English Channel, entered the Atlantic, then to the Indian Ocean, and then to the South China Sea, and finally arrived in Guangzhou, China, with a journey of more than 20,000 nautical miles, when the entire escort fleet arrived in the Indian Ocean, a hundred B-29s in Guangzhou will take turns to provide air cover for the entire escort fleet, and the main threat to be faced at this time is the submarine of small Japan, which is not afraid, Germany is equipped with 48 U-boats that are the most advanced in the world, plus 4 anti-submarine helicopters, I dare not say that the submarine of Little Japan is absolutely defended, at least it can be said that it is guaranteed to be 99 percent.

As for the large surface warships of small Japan, the general command of this exercise has also made full preparations and analyzed countless data; now little Japan has only occupied Taiwan, China, and the countries of the South Seas are still colonies of various powers, and even if little Japan has a few aircraft carriers, it does not dare to send them out to attack Germany's escort fleet in the Indian Ocean, and little Japan has no fighters and bombers that can fly to the Indian Ocean, while Germany has B-29s, which can carry ten tons of ammunition to bomb little Japan's fleet indiscriminately. Little Japan's aircraft carriers are the priority targets of the B-29, and the German U-boat is a god for Little Japan at this time, and I don't know how many surface ships they can escape the "wolf pack tactics" of U-boats.

When the entire huge fleet of Germany escorted more than 100,000 tons of giant ships into the Indian Ocean, the time had come to November 6, 1938, at this time in Guangzhou Kesselring began to come, sending twenty B-29s to the Indian Ocean with full ammunition every day, without worrying about the gasoline consumed by the aircraft, China reimbursed all the fuel consumption of this German exercise, the price of 20 tons of gold, Jiang Zhongzheng also dreamed of getting this batch of German equipment that could change the fate of China, that is also a lot of blood.

At the same time, Kesselring also sent an aviation division to the airfield on Hainan Island every day to prepare in advance for the German fleet, while the air division in Guangzhou sent an aviation regiment to patrol south of Taiwan every day, and if the Japanese fleet was discovered, they would immediately report it to the general command of the exercise.

Inside the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, Japan:

"General Sanben Five or Six, what are you looking for me?"

"Your Majesty, according to the telegram sent back by our spies in Germany, this time the German Führer Hitler, at the instigation of the hellish devil named Zhang Jun, gathered more than 1.8 million light and heavy weapons of all kinds, including more than 500 tanks and countless ammunition, totaling more than 800,000 tons of ammunition, which were escorted by the German Navy and Air Force to Guangzhou, China in the name of exercises.

Yamamoto Fifty-six is the commander of the Combined Fleet, Mitsumasa Yonechi is the Minister of the Navy, today these two people came to the palace at the same time to ask to see the Japanese emperor, both of these people are the vanguard of the south, are trying to get the emperor to agree to their southward strategy, the last time the "hell demon" annihilated the 200,000 troops on their side, it gave them a good excuse, but still did not convince others to change the strategy of the army to occupy China and go north to the Soviet Far East, and now the opportunity is here again, Germany is sending such a huge amount of arms to China, It's a big deal.

Of course, those bastards in the army did not hesitate to ask the navy to fight, regardless of whether he was a German warship or a transport ship, but Yamamoto Isoroku and Mitsumasa Yonechi had their own ideas about the navy, and the Japanese navy at this time was indeed powerful, there were nearly eight aircraft carriers alone, and there were originally ten, but one was sunk during the Battle of Songhu, and two were heavily damaged, one of which was repaired, one was scrapped, and there were hundreds of other warships, and submarines were Japan's weak point, and there were only more than a dozen old submarines, which were no match for German U-boats.

Mitsumasa Sanmoto and Mitsumasa Yonechi also want to fight, after all, if China is armed, it will be very unfavorable to Japan, no matter whether Japan goes north or south, the mainland base in the northeast cannot be lost, if China is strong, then the northeast can still be defended, but the attack on Yamamoto 56 and Mitsumasa Yonechi carefully analyzed, if the Japanese Navy wants to fight the Luftwaffe Navy and Air Force, there is no hope of victory, although it can eat a lot of German transport ships, then the entire Japanese Navy is finished, At the same time, the Japanese mainland was also under the threat of strategic bombing by the B-29s.

Let's first analyze the strength of the German side, two battle cruisers, 8 light cruisers, 12 destroyers, 48 U-shaped submarines, Germany's surface ships are definitely not the opponent of small Japan, small Japan alone has eight aircraft carriers, and hundreds of other types of warships, if Germany and small Japan only fight surface ships, the Germans can only go to the sea to feed the sharks, but Germany has the world's most advanced U-shaped submarines, and small Japan has always wanted to buy but has not bought the "artifact".

Are these artifacts cooperating with Germany's most advanced submarine tactics -- the "wolf pack tactics" -- and at this time, with the anti-submarine technology of little Japan, without active sonar, they are indiscriminately dropping depth charges? It is a dream to destroy the German U-boats, and it can be said that as long as little Japan dares to attack the German convoy, as many warships as it comes, how many warships will be destroyed. In addition, Germany's two air divisions and 100 B-29 strategic bombers in Guangzhou, China, are not vegetarians, and now the Type 96 carrier-based aircraft on the small Japanese aircraft carrier do not seem to be flying as fast and high as the B-29, and they can only stare at the B-29 dryly.

How could Yamamoto 56 and Mitsumasa Yonechi put the entire Japanese Navy into it, it was absolutely impossible, if the Navy was exhausted, then the two of them would not have any say in Japan, but the posture still had to be done, originally the contradiction between the Japanese Navy and the Army in order to compete for resources was already very big, if this time there was no indication at all, let Germany send a large number of arms to China, it would also completely stimulate the contradiction between Japan's land and sea. (Japan does not have a special air force, and it is all organized in the army and navy, called army aviation and naval aviation)

"Your Majesty, I think we should still send all the main forces of the combined fleet, if the conditions are ripe, we will fight, if the situation is extremely unfavorable to us, we will not fight, the empire's navy is accumulated by us for hundreds of years, and it can't just die in the hands of us."

After Mitsumasa Yonechi finished speaking, he lowered his head and waited for the instructions of the Japanese Emperor Hirohito;

"Since Aiqing has already decided, let's do it."

Although the Japanese emperor has no real power, his influence on the army and civil affairs is unparalleled, if the emperor opposes, then Mitsumasa Minai will never dare to pull the entire combined fleet out to confront the German fleet, so the Japanese emperor after World War II, shirk responsibility, this is all the result of the secret negotiations between the Yankees and the Japanese emperor: keep the Japanese emperor, and at the same time do not hold the Japanese emperor accountable, then Japan surrenders unconditionally, and the Yankees are really not a thing.

When the German convoy arrived in the Indian Ocean, the Japanese Navy also began to make urgent preparations, but the Japanese Navy seemed to be deliberately delaying, and it only needed to be equipped for two days before it could leave, but the entire Japanese Combined Fleet was prepared for five days before leaving, and the German fleet had already crossed half of the Indian Ocean.

As the German Navy continues to sail across the Indian Ocean, the Japanese Combined Fleet will sail through the Taiwan Strait into the South China Sea with hundreds of warships and six aircraft carriers, and then wait for the German fleet outside Malacca. As soon as the Japanese Combined Fleet arrived in the Taiwan Strait, it was discovered by the German Air Force, and Catherine informed the German fleet approaching the Strait of Malacca on the other hand, and on the other hand, dispatched a large number of planes to monitor the vicinity of the Japanese Combined Fleet, and small Japan was not to be outdone, and hurriedly took off its own land-based aircraft and Type 96 carrier-based aircraft in Taiwan to provide air cover for its Combined Fleet. For a while, war clouds were gathering in the Taiwan Strait, and although the fighters of the two sides did not open fire, they were full of gunpowder and kept simulating attacks on each other, but neither fired the first shot.

On November 11, 1938, the German fleet arrived in Malacca, at this time the Japanese combined fleet had completely left the Taiwan Strait, and was rushing to Malacca at full speed, after receiving Catherine's warning, the commander-in-chief of the exercise, Raeder, did not dare to have the slightest delay, and hurriedly organized his fleet and transport fleet to pass through Malacca overnight, so many ships, such a narrow waterway, it would take at least one night to let the whole team pass, the most dangerous situation was that their fleet was stuck in Malacca, but the Japanese combined fleet arrived, At the same time, the attack was launched, so that most of the entire German fleet would be killed in Malacca.

What about the British in Malacca, won't they stop it, if a commander hands over the fate of his troops to an absolutely unreliable competitor, then his fate is also very tragic, the British are not bad if they don't join hands with little Japan to attack the German fleet, and it is a pure dream to count on them.

It is also the little ninety-nine of Little Japan's Yamamoto Fifty-six and Mitsumasa Mineuchi who have their own navy, and they have no plans to really start a war with Germany, otherwise the German Navy is really not the opponent of Little Japan, but the German Air Force will also send the fleet of Little Japan into the arms of the sea.

The German Navy, under the command of Raeder, raced against time to pass Malacca, and the British Navy and shore artillery in Singapore were also on high alert, the German Navy escorted such a huge amount of munitions, how could it be possible to take the initiative to find trouble with the British, the British should be on alert, the German Navy Fleet now aims to pass through Malacca with all its might, and then go all out to Hainan Island, and try to shorten the straight-line distance between the entire German fleet and the Hainan Island airfield, so that you can maximize the support of shore-based aircraft on the Hainan Island airfield.
