It was still dark, but the atmosphere in the room was tense.

Ikeda had just told all his men about his conversation with Gao Dong, and had made his decision to help Gao Dong and the People's Liberation Army (PLA) out of the Second Fleet's warships.

All the devils were shocked, even though they knew that they would definitely commit treason after surrendering, they didn't expect everything to come so quickly, and it was such an earth-shattering event.

Gao Dong stood behind Ikeda Shou, who did not dare to slack off, looked at a group of stunned subordinates, and shouted: "I have finished speaking, but my plan needs your cooperation. Do you want to give a happy word now, and don't hesitate any longer. ”

Ikeda's words were an ultimatum, and all the devils immediately came to their senses. Gao Dong stood behind Ikeda Shou, watching their every move. is bound to ride a tiger, if you don't agree, there is only a dead end.

"We do it"

"Yes, Your Excellency Dazuo, you are our commander, as long as you say it, we will go to the soup!"

"Your Excellency Dazuo, give orders, no matter what, we will follow you!"

A group of devils suddenly became agitated, each roaring angrily, as if the comrades of the Second Fleet were their father-killing enemies, and they waited for Ikeda Shou to give the order to slaughter them.

Ikeda Shou turned his head and said respectfully to Gao Dong: "Sir Gao, you have also seen that all my people are willing to cooperate. Now it's time for you to give the order, and we're ready to go! ”

"Don't worry, you guys sign all the names of this document first!" Gao Dong smiled and waved his hand behind him, and Tang Wei and Jensen immediately walked over with a table.

On the table was a piece of paper filled with words written in both Chinese and Japanese. There was also a fountain pen next to him, and Gao Dong waved his hand at Ikeda Shou and the others, which meant to please.

Ikeda Shou and a group of devils immediately surrounded him, they could not read Chinese, but Japanese was clearly written. They voluntarily surrendered to the PLA, and signed this certificate of breaking with Japan, and they also had to break away from the Japanese army, and from then on they were members of the PLA.

This is the last killer shot, and Ikeda Shou frowned tightly. If you sign this document, it will be tantamount to a complete break with Japan and the military. If they betray the PLA in the future, as long as the PLA comes up with this document, all of them will die a good death.

In the future, even if they escape back to the Japanese military, the Japanese spy system will not investigate their motives. Maybe none of them will survive at that time, and they will all have to die under this paperwork.

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just a guarantee, you should understand!" Gao Dong smiled and waved at them.

Ikeda Shou gritted his teeth, then smiled, "Sir, since we have already made a decision, we will never go back. From now on, China will be our home, and we will be the first batch of PLA Navy members! ”

"I'll sign it!" Ikeda picked up the pen and signed his name at the top of the blank space. From this moment on, he completely drew a line with the past, and he no longer had any relationship.

One devil after another signed the paperwork, some gritting their teeth, some closing their eyes. Everyone knows that after signing this document, they will never be able to return to their homeland unless one day the PLA can take them back to Japan.

"Good!" Gao Dong picked up the paperwork, handed it to Tang Wei on the side, and said with a smile: "Our People's Liberation Army will never treat anyone who surrenders to Chengcheng, don't worry, help us do this well, you will be the People's Liberation Army in the future!" ”

Ikeda Shou nodded fiercely: "Senior Sir, what are you going to do?" ”

Gao Dong waved his hand, Jensen and Tang Wei immediately withdrew, guarded the gate, and asked the surrounding guards to stay away from the room.

Gao Dong then said: "Don't you have a friend of the fleet?" I want you to keep driving back the boat, which is full of my soldiers. Then cover us aboard your warships and capture them! ”

Ikeda Shou thought for a moment, then nodded: "No problem, I am the logistics chief of the First Fleet, but my good friends are all in the Second Fleet. The fleet was just formed, and I didn't know the people of the First Fleet very well. There are five captains in the Second Fleet who are good friends with me, and I can trick them all into coming to my ship! ”

"Are you sure? Isn't that a joke? Gao Dong asked coldly.

"No kidding!" Ikeda Shou's eyes showed ruthlessness: "As long as you control their captains, the five warships will basically be controlled." Then let your men board their warships and force the sailors on the ships to ensure that the five warships can be captured! ”

Gao Dong was actually ecstatic in his heart, the PLA already has an air force and a strong army, and the only thing lacking is the navy, which is also the most fatal weakness of the PLA.

Without a strong maritime power, it will never be able to control China's vast seas.

The Japanese do not have the time to send large ships to Chinese waters, but if they win the battle for supremacy in the Pacific with the Americans, they can easily support their land forces by sending two aircraft carriers in Chinese waters.

The People's Liberation Army (PLA) in the coastal areas was no longer an opponent of the Japanese and could be subjected to intensive bombardment at any time. So only by building a strong navy can they finally win this war.

Although Gao Dong obtained the technology to build warships from the Americans, almost all of the coastal areas were occupied by the Japanese, and large shipyards were also located along the coast, so he had no place to build and develop warships.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if he has a place to build warships, they can't control the sea area for the time being, and the Japanese can send warships or planes to bomb at any time, but they still can't build warships.

If the Japanese warships can be captured and used, a navy can be initially formed. Even if this navy is still weak and cannot compete with Japan's powerful navy, it is still better than not having any warships now.

Gao Dong looked at Ikeda Shou and encouraged, "If you can really complete this mission, capture five warships." Then everything I promised you will not change, I also want a naval school in the city, and I will let you be the first principal! ”

Ikeda Shou was really excited about the concept of a naval school, that is, all Chinese naval officers in the future will be his students. Even if he never returns to Japan, he can be regarded as having a firm foothold in China, and it is a very deep heel.

And now the PLA is developing rapidly, and the strength of the army has surpassed that of Japan. Ikeda believes that China's navy will be so powerful that it may not be a problem to surpass Japan.

He immediately nodded vigorously: "Senior Sir, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task." ”

Gao Dong looked at him, gradually calmed down, and asked calmly, "Where is the Second Fleet now?" ”

Toshiya Ikeda calmed down, and although the idea was good, it was still difficult until it was realized.

"The Second Fleet is currently in the direction of Qingdao!" "All of China's coastal areas were occupied by the army, but you recaptured Qingdao and Weihai. The Jiaozhou Peninsula was the place where our Japanese Navy operated for many years, and the Admiralty had instructed the Admiralty to recapture the Jiaozhou Peninsula. ”

Gao Dong raised his eyebrows slightly, and as soon as Ikeda Shou's words were finished, he knew what the Japanese were fighting in mind.

The Central China Dispatch Army in Hebei was threatened not only by the Shanxi People's Liberation Army, but also by the Shandong People's Liberation Army. At this time, if the Second Fleet of the Japanese Navy went to attack the Jiaozhou Peninsula, it would inevitably attract the main force of the People's Liberation Army in Shandong.

As long as the main force of the People's Liberation Army in Shandong goes to the Jiaozhou Peninsula, the Central China dispatch army will be one less big threat. At that time, Kazuki Qingji can concentrate his forces against the People's Liberation Army in Shanxi and defeat the People's Liberation Army one by one.

Gao Dong sneered in his heart, he didn't expect that one of his unexpected decisions would break the Japanese army's battle plan again.

"How many warships are there in the Second Fleet? How is the combat effectiveness? Gao Dong then asked.

"Four battleships, six light cruisers, six heavy cruisers, ten gunboats, twenty-three spy boats, twenty miscellaneous ships, and four transport ships." Ikeda Shou said quickly.

"Which warships are those friends of yours in charge of?"

"One battleship, three light cruisers, one heavy cruiser!" "I can also ask them to invite two other captains of heavy cruisers to my ship and agree to meet in a specific area," Ikeda said. When the time comes, as long as you act quickly, you can successfully capture their warships! ”

"What sea are you going to meet?" Gao Dong asked again, every detail must be grasped.

Ikeda thought for a moment and said, "The Second Fleet is currently cruising near Qingdao, so I just need to contact my friends and meet near the fleet." If they are pulled out of the fleet, it is likely to arouse suspicion! ”

"In what way did you ask them to come to your ship?" Gao Dong asked again.

Ikeda smiled: "It's very simple, they're all good friends of mine, and now we're not together anymore." I was in the First Fleet, stationed in Tianjin. They are about to go to Qingdao to fight, and there are few times to get together. In the name of passing by and transporting supplies, I invited them to my ship and set up a feast to reminisce with them! They wouldn't have doubted it, we've done it before! ”

Gao Dong thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, just follow your plan." When is the most convenient time to go? ”

"It's best to set off as soon as possible, because they may attack Qingdao at any time. If there is a war, I will not have a chance! ”

Gao Dong turned around suddenly, opened the door, and shouted at Tang Wei in a low voice: "Go and call Yang Dezhi over, I have important military information!" ”
