"What do you think? Let's talk about your opinion, the three stinkers have beaten Zhuge Liang, I don't believe that so many of us can't find Zhao Zhi's next direction of action" Mao Zedong snuffed out the cigarette between his fingers. After the Eighth Route Army fought the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the living space has been squeezed by the Japanese puppet army, coupled with the reduced grain production in the base area last year, the situation facing the Eighth Route Army troops is now very bad, if Zhao Zhi's next move will be carried out in Shanxi, then the current situation of the Eighth Route Army will be better, maybe there is still the possibility of continuing to advance eastward.

There were several senior commanders who were urgently recalled to Yan'an, and Peng Dehuai, deputy commander of the Eighth Route Army, was also present, plus he was the first person to deal with Zhao Zhi, so Mao Zedong simply asked him to be the first to speak. "I can't say it right now, but if Zhao Zhi is about to start an operation, then I think his direction of action should still be in Shanxi, or why would he build an airport in Zhangwu County and hoard military supplies. The person I sent came back and told me that Zhao Zhi had turned that Zhangwu County into a military base, and if the Japanese army did not send divisional and regimental troops to attack it, they would not be able to see the city wall of Zhangwu County at all."

Peng Dehuai's speech gave the people present a new understanding of Zhao Zhi, the Japanese army division and regiment-level troops are a behemoth, Zhao Zhi can only rely on a small county town to confront such a number of Japanese troops, it seems that everyone still underestimates Zhao Zhi's strength. "My people learned that Zhao Zhi's Jewish army camp was very tightly guarded, and a lot of materials transferred from Xi'an to Zhangwu County were stored there, except for Zhao Zhi and his cronies, no one else knew what those things were" Peng Dehuai threw out another new news, everyone thought that Zhao Zhi still had a killer weapon that had not been revealed.

"First send someone to reveal our meaning to Zhao Zhi, so that he can choose whether to come to Yan'an or not" The discussion and dispute continued, and in the end Mao Zedong made a decision, but Li Kenong and Peng Dehuai, who were in charge of intelligence work, did not think that Zhao Zhi would choose to come to Yan'an. It is indeed the case, when the invitation sent by Yan'an was transmitted to Zhangwu County through the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, even if Zhao Zhidang refused, he did not lack weapons and ammunition now, there was no shortage of soldiers, what he lacked was time, there were too many things to do, and Zhao Zhi was concerned about too many things, he needed more time.

"Britain is finished" Zhao Zhi handed the telegram just sent from Berlin to Rowling, Zhao Zhi knew that this news would really kick off the war, once the proud Germans completely occupied the British Isles, they would sharpen their knives and rush to those British colonies. But the polar bears will not be indifferent to the expansion of Germany's territory, and the Soviets, whose blood is full of alcohol, have been preparing for many years, but they did not expect that the British would be defeated by the Germans so early.

"This Churchill is not bad, he actually fled to Australia with those nobles and high-ranking officials, it seems that they are going to continue to resist the German army, I really don't know how they escaped so far" Rowling's words suddenly woke up Zhao Zhi, yes, the British warship was torpedoed by German submarines in the English Channel, Churchill has great ability, and it is impossible to send so many people to Australia by sea, unless, Zhao Zhi guessed that he had thought of the key to the problem- The British guy of the dog day cooperated with the Japanese.

Under Zhao Zhi's intervention, the Germans chose to break the alliance with Japan early, but the Germans only went to war with Britain and France, so their blockade of ships in the British Isles would not attack ships flying the flags of other countries. Zhao Zhi guessed that the British should have found this loophole, hired a large number of foreign ships, and fled the mainland before the Germans had time to form an encirclement on the British mainland. It is likely that the British troops in Britain who resisted the Germans were only under Churchill's remote command, and the cigar-smoking British Prime Minister apparently fled to Australia in the first place.

The reason why Zhao Zhi said that the British and the Japanese joined forces was because ships full of British nobles and high-ranking officials had to cross not only the North Atlantic, but also the South Pacific before they had the opportunity to reach Australia and New Zealand, while there were only two warships active in the South Pacific, one was the United States and the other was Japan. The Americans never forget the history of the British occupation of the United States, so in the current situation, they will at most provide some ships to the British, and will never escort them through the South Pacific, the only explanation is that the Japanese sent their aircraft carrier fleet to escort the British all the way to Australia and New Zealand.

It is not difficult to explain why so many British escaped from the British Isles without any problems, and why the Japanese aircraft carrier fleet disappeared for no reason, and it seems that some kind of agreement must have been reached between the British and Japan, otherwise the Japanese would never have risked offending Germany to help. "Send a telegram to Germany immediately, asking them to find a way to determine whether there is a Japanese fleet in Australia or New Zealand, and also to find out the size of the Japanese fleet" Zhao Zhi gave an order, and the telegraph room ushered in the busiest season, and seven dispatchers kept sending telegrams to Berlin, Chongqing, and the United States.

"What could it be?" Zhao Zhi spread out a large world map on the table, thinking about what benefits the British had given to the Japanese. Before the war, Britain had colonies all over the world, Oceania, Africa, the Americas, Europe and Asia, and Australia and New Zealand, where the British are currently going, are their colonies in Oceania.

After some thought, Zhao Zhi's hand fell on British India and Burma, which borders it, yes, it is here, the Japanese army's expansion speed has reached a crazy point, according to the intelligence sent by the military commander and the CIA, the Japanese army after occupying Vietnam, and then took advantage of the situation to sweep away several small countries around Vietnam. Zhao Zhi withdrew from Burma with the Jews in order to prevent the Japanese army from suddenly attacking Burma, and now it seems that the Japanese had long planned to take Burma bloodlessly and lay the foundation for their occupation of the whole of Asia.

"The Japanese are really good enough to calculate" Zhao Zhi threw down the magnifying glass, grabbed the cigar on the table and lit one, and nestled in the chair to think about countermeasures. At present, most of the oil, iron ore and grain needed by the Kunming base come from Burma, and the weapons, ammunition and medicines transported by the Rockman family from the United States are also landed through Yangon Port, once the Japanese army occupies Burma and cuts off the Yunnan-Burma highway, it will be a fatal blow to Zhao Zhike, Zhao Zhi can not rely on the United States to airdrop oil to himself from the Philippines, his armored troops are a super fuel-intensive thing.

But even if Zhao Zhi thought of this, he was still in Shanxi, so he couldn't leave everything here and go back to Kunming, besides, Zhao Zhi's hands could only rely on those planes, and how could he prevent the Japanese fleet from landing in Yangon without even a gunboat. What to do? Zhao Zhi ran out of ideas for the first time, and the whole person closed his eyes in the chair in a bit of confusion. Zhao Zhi's appearance made Luo Lin's heart ache, but this wise woman didn't bother Zhao Zhi's thinking, she just ordered Luo Ying to take people to watch the door of the headquarters, and she took a few female soldiers to the room.

"Honey, come and try the noodles I made, this is what I learned from Aunt Cai" Zhao Zhi, who was nesting in the chair, was forcibly pulled up by Rowling, and Lady Cai in Rowling's mouth was the cook in charge of the small kitchen, and she was the best at making noodles. The red chili peppers, the white and green onions, the fragrant beef pieces, and the chewy noodles, a bowl of hot and spicy noodles made Zhao Zhi's spirit better, his stomach was full, and he naturally thought about the problem much faster and clearer.

According to the intelligence sent by the military commanders and the Chinese Communists, although the Japanese army is currently operating in Asia, the troops in China still account for the majority, so Zhao Zhi is still ready to start implementing it according to the original plan, using the Spark plan to consume the maximum number of Japanese puppet troops, looking for all possible materials and oil to attack the Japanese puppet army, and destroying the weapons production factories in Japan, hunting down and killing weapons engineers and skilled workers in Japan, so that the Japanese army will lose the support of weapons and ammunition.

"Send a report to the tinder, the Spark Project has officially begun, and the first step will be carried out immediately - the fire pond" Zhao Zhi called Luo Ying and commanded in a low voice. Chongqing, including Yan'an, who had stolen the Spark Project, only knew about the plan, and in their view, the Spark Plan was just a small-scale attack on the Japanese army like a Spark could set the prairie on fire, so as to expand the influence of the Nationalist government and win the support of the people while fighting the Japanese army.

But in fact, the real Spark Plan has a second set of plans for implementation, and the fire pond mentioned by Zhao Zhi is only the first step, and the tinder lurking in the Japanese theater has their own areas of responsibility, and the so-called fire pond operation is to ask these tinder to find the Japanese army's airfield and fuel hoarding points in their respective areas of responsibility. The purpose of Zhao Zhi's construction of the airfield in Shanxi was to implement the Spark Plan, once the Tinder found the Japanese airfield and those facilities, the fighters parked in Qinglongping would continue to attack them until the Japanese fighters no longer posed a threat to Qinglongping.

It is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers, and instead of always fighting small-scale ambush and assault battles with the Japanese army, it is better to directly weaken their air power to be more direct. As long as the upcoming Heavenly Punishment Operation can destroy half of the aircraft factories in Japan, Zhao Zhi is confident that the Japanese fighters will no longer be seen in the skies of Shanxi.
