Before the Philippine campaign ended, Li Guang began to do private work. With MacArthur's consent and a deal with Lieutenant General Kincaid, the vigorous transportation operation began.

At the beginning of May, Li Guang left without finishing his business. The position of commander of the Allied fleet fell to Kincaid. Li Guang's fame and military exploits are enough, but Kincaid needs it, and it's time to help Lieutenant General Kincaid.

So the Allied fleet, under the command of Kincaid, began to escort the Haitang fleet.

As soon as the Haitang Army made a move, it was a big deal, and the first time was to send materials to Chinese mainland on a large scale. On 5 May, the transport operation of the Haitang Army began.

Twenty-five slow-moving guano ships carrying nearly 100,000 tons of rice, two supply cruisers carrying weapons and ammunition, and six transport submarines carrying gasoline and diesel fuel passed north of the Philippines and headed for the coast of Fujian......

This move of the Haitang Army was not only to transport supplies, but also to tempt the Japanese Navy with a huge transport fleet. However, the Japanese Navy is still practicing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as always. Therefore, the first large-scale transportation, without danger and without danger, smooth unimaginable.

In the southern part of Chinese mainland, the Japanese occupied only a few important ports and cities, and most of the coastline did not have a single Japanese soldier. The Chinese army, which was seriously short of supplies, heard that there was a large amount of assistance and was extremely enthusiastic, and even mobilized the strength of three armies to seize a controlled area at the junction of Fujian and Guangdong. Therefore, the huge fleet of the Haitang Army easily found several ports for unloading.

The 120,000 tons of supplies are the sum of the U.S. aid that the Chinese army receives in a year (in terms of weight, not in value).

This is the first time since '42 that China has received aid from abroad along the southeast coast. Moreover, its huge number alleviated the shortage of materials for almost the entire southern army of the Chinese army.

Completed this sea freight. The transportation tasks of the Maritime Resistance Force will be greatly reduced. Although the United States supports China with 10,000 tons of supplies every month, cheap food accounts for most of the weight. This is the only time that the Haitang Army has completed the food transportation volume for one year.

As for valuable munitions, medicines, and oil. The United States supports China, but only one or two thousand tons per month. The two supply cruisers and submarines of the Haitang Army can easily complete the task with minimal risk.

Since then, the strategy of the Chinese army has changed, and these materials have directly supported the ongoing battle of Yuxianggui. In the Battle of Yuxianggui, the performance of the Chinese army was not as poor as in history.

The Battle of Yuxianggui is a part of the history of the Anti-Japanese War known to Li Guang. And because of this battle, it led to a result, Li Guang's hometown Luoyang fell. Therefore, Li Guang remembers this very well.

Long before the Cairo meeting, Li Guang began to make preparations. The reason why he arranged the two commanders, Su Qing and Xu Zhan, was in northern Burma. It's not that there is a need for two commanders there, it's actually for the sake of dealing with this battle.

The so-called Yuxianggui Campaign was actually the result that the Japanese Army couldn't count on the Navy and did it alone. The Japanese Army was naïve and prepared to move from south to north. Open up the communication lines of Chinese mainland. In this way, it is possible not to rely on the Navy. The north and south circulated materials and personnel.

Historically. The Japanese army did win the battle, but transportation could not be guaranteed at all.

Li Guang's butterfly instigated its wings, and Chairman Chiang also learned the information that the Japanese army launched the Battle of Yuxianggui early. In fact, an extremely key reason for the Haitang Army to take over the transportation task of the US military is the lack of bombers in the Haitang Army. To date, the Haitang Army still has only twelve B17 bombers.

After taking over the US transport planes, the strategic air force of the Haitang Army suddenly had more than 100 bombers. It can fully support a large-scale campaign.

The Battle of Yuxianggui and the battles that took place in other provinces, Li Guang is not clear. But what he knew was that in this battle, the Japanese army attacked Henan. For the first time, a whole armored division regiment was used. This was the only time that the Japanese army was on the Asian battlefield, and the Chinese army was completely unable to stop it under the torrent of ironclads. However, the army of Tang Enbo, a close confidant of the chairman of the committee, had no fighting spirit, and the Central Plains was a flat river, so it was defeated for thousands of miles, and Luoyang was lost.

As for the other generals and troops of the Haitang Army, Chairman Chiang was certainly not willing to accept them. But Su Qing, the commander of the third column of the Haitang Army, was not among them, you must know that Su Qing really called Chairman Jiang an uncle, and Su Qing and Jiang Tai-Zi Jingguo are also cousins. Chairman Jiang even wanted to win over Su Qing a little, so that he could help his appointed heir in the future.

Su Qing was able to enter the country, and what he brought was not the army but the strategic air force of the Haitang Army. If he does not lead the team, Air Force Commander Liu Guobang will not be able to enter China. Regardless of the origin, without the consent of Chairman Chiang, the troops of the Haitang State were not eligible to enter China.

In the first battle, the Tang Army shined, with hundreds of bombers (mainly transport planes) and nearly 100 fighters dispatched together to annihilate the Japanese armored division on the bank of the Yellow River. The Japanese Army, which had never seen the world, could not have imagined that there would be an air strike of such a scale, and wanted to learn from the German armored lightning, but as a result, the level was not at home, it was discovered early, and it was completely destroyed before crossing the Yellow River. The Japanese army's plot against the Central Plains was thwarted.

The campaign continued, and Li Guang hoped that the Chinese army would perform better than in history. If we can win a battle, we will boost the morale of the army and the people, and also earn a little face for China.

There have also been some unexpected changes on the battlefield in Myanmar. The Japanese army went crazy and even took the initiative to attack the British army in the direction of Imphal.

In order to deal with the Yuxianggui Campaign launched by the Japanese army, Chairman Chiang transferred many elite Chinese troops, and the pressure on the Japanese army in northern Burma was reduced. In addition, the combat effectiveness of the army aviation of the Haitang Army has seriously declined, and it has also withdrawn from the battlefield, and the strategic air force has also rushed to the interior to support the battle. The Flying Tigers, led by General Chennault, also supported the Battle of Yuxianggui in southern China.

The Allied forces weakened, and the Japanese may have discovered something, so they launched an attack. You must know that Burma is mountainous, watery, and jungled, and if the Japanese army is dedicated to defense, it will be extremely difficult for the Allies to advance. On the other hand, if the Japanese wanted to attack the British army, which was steadily fighting, they would also have to pay a heavy price. Although the current British army is still mainly Indian, after one or two years of training, the quality of the soldiers has improved a lot. As for the troops, the scale of the British army is huge, hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed on the border between India and Burma, and the British army has strong firepower, and there is no shortage of materials and ammunition.

In fact, it was the Japanese army that defeated the British army, and the impact on Haitang was not great. The Haitang Army can now import materials from the southeast coast, and the cost is low and the efficiency is high. Although there is an impact on immigration, Li Guang estimates that in a few months, it may be safer to take the sea route. Even if it is not accessible by sea, you can also take the air route from the mainland to the Philippines.

Therefore, Li Guang did not care about the Burma campaign at all, and he was not in a hurry.

In the Pacific Ocean, the Japanese devils swallowed their anger, and Kincaid had to move in.

During this period, the name of the U.S. Seventh Fleet began to spread around the world, and Vice Admiral Kincaid continued to appear on the front pages of newspapers, like the most dazzling admiral of the U.S. Army, overshadowing Spruance and Vice Admiral Halsey.

Like madness, Kincaid cruised the South Seas with a huge fleet. There is quite a lot of madness of the Japanese army in the early days of the Pacific War, Nagumo Fleet.

Even crazier.

Kincaid is playing very actively, coupled with his tactical proficiency, and the cooperation of various fleets is becoming more and more tacit, Kincaid's courage is getting bigger and bigger. He led the fleet not only to use carrier-based aircraft to strike at the Japanese troops in China's coastal ports, but also to use naval guns to bombard a number of fortresses and ports controlled by the Japanese army.

For a time, Kincaid's fleet became the master and king of the South China Sea.

Kincaid wants fame, and what he wants is military exploits. Li Guang took the initiative to retreat, making Kincaid the supreme commander of the Allied fleet, and also the commander of the sea, with honor and disgrace tied to one.

If he doesn't fight at this time, when will he wait, if he doesn't make fame or exploits at this time, how can he restore the former glory and power of his faction.

The harder Kincaid hits, the happier Li Guang becomes.

Li Guang hoped that MacArthur would take the Philippines sooner and that Kincaid would take out the remnants of the Japanese Navy as soon as possible. The Haitang Kingdom could also immigrate from the southeast coast to Datang Island one day earlier. (To be continued......)
