Yamamoto was a more attentive commander, and after the Japanese naval fleet was bizarrely intercepted and ambushed by the Chinese Navy and the U.S. Navy in the Coral Sea, Yamamoto was keenly aware that there might be a problem with the Navy's communications, and the most likely was that the code was mastered by China and the United States, so he agreed to change the naval code a few days before the announcement of the battle plan.

Such a small move by Yamamoto directly disrupted the deployment of the Chinese and American navies. Both Chen Shaokuan and Nimitz believed that the Japanese navy would make a big move, so they instructed the intelligence departments to intensify their surveillance of the Japanese navy and strive not to miss the slightest clue.

However, the intelligence department did not gain anything, and received some messy and useless things, and later even these things could not be collected, and the intelligence department judged that the Japanese navy was likely to change the password in the near future.

The sudden loss of the matter to the Japanese Navy made Chen Shaokuan and Nimitz very anxious, but the work of cracking the code was not a matter of one or two days, but the actions of the Japanese Navy would not change in any way because of this, and the navies of China and the United States had no choice but to frequently send reconnaissance planes to pay attention to the movements of the Japanese Navy.

On 29 April, a US Navy reconnaissance plane spotted a fleet of more than 30 warships and troop carriers heading northeast, and immediately reported the information to the command center of the Pacific Fleet.

After receiving the information, Admiral Nimitz immediately sent more reconnaissance planes to closely monitor the Japanese fleet with unknown intentions, and a large amount of information was transmitted back to the command center. The U.S. military found that the Japanese naval fleet consisted of two large aircraft carriers and 29 other combat ships, and its target was likely to be the Aleutian Islands of the United States. At this time, Nimitz was not calm, and immediately sent the main force of the Pacific Fleet to the Aleutian Islands to intercept it, so that the Battle of Midway had completely deviated from its original trajectory.

In the historical Battle of Midway, Japan still used this diversion tactic, but because the Japanese name did not change the codebook in time, the United States successfully deciphered the Japanese code, and did not send troops to reinforce the Aleutian Islands, allowing the Japanese Navy to occupy wherever it was.

The main force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet was ambushed at Midway, waiting for the Japanese Navy to take the bait, so as to wait for work. An ambush of the Japanese motorized fleet near Midway Island. Ultimately at the cost of sinking an aircraft carrier, USS Yorktown. It won a decisive victory in sinking four of Japan's main aircraft carriers and one cruiser in one fell swoop, thus completely thwarting Japan's offensive in the Central Pacific, and the initiative in the Central Pacific changed hands.

But now, thanks to a small inadvertent move by Yamamoto Isoroku, the previous superiority of the American side in intelligence has disappeared. Although the US Naval Intelligence is working closely with the relevant units in the United Kingdom as well as the Netherlands. Successfully intercepted part of the JN-25 signal of the main communication system of the Japanese Navy. And let the coalition know that the 'AF position' will be the next target of the Japanese Navy. However, the coalition forces were unable to crack the position of the 'AF position'.

There is a big disagreement among the coalition forces as to where this AF direction is referring to, and some high-ranking US military generals believe that the "AF direction" is Midway. Others believe that it is the Aleutian Islands. However, no matter how advanced the coalition decoding technology is, it still can't decipher the correct location of the 'AF position'.

At this time, the intelligence detected by the reconnaissance plane successfully attracted the attention of the US Navy, and Admiral Nimitz, after hesitation, transferred the main force of the Pacific Fleet to Aleutian, leaving only a few troops to guard Midway.

The same is true of the Chinese Navy, and the Japanese Navy's temporary replacement of the codebook has also made the Chinese Navy very helpless, but the Japanese Navy's frequent movements are definitely not a formality, and there must be big moves, so Chen Shaokuan reported the news to the Military Commission, and at the same time frequently sent planes to reconnoiter the waters around the Nanyang Territory to prevent a sudden attack by the Japanese Navy.

However, just when the Allied forces were unable to figure out what Japan wanted to do, the Japanese navy began to operate.

On 1 May, Japanese Vice Admiral Hososuma Shushiro led a northern formation to launch a surprise attack on the Dutch Harbor naval base in the Aleutian Islands, and the Aleutian Islands landing battle began. However, because the U.S. military had learned that the Japanese Navy planned to raid the Alaska Islands, the troops defending the island were ready for battle, and the two sides fought fiercely for half a day, but the Japanese army never landed as expected.

On the second day, the Japanese army made another surprise attack and eliminated more than 80 bombers to bomb the defending troops indiscriminately, causing serious damage to the coastal defense facilities.

On May 3, the Japanese landing troops landed on Kiska and Attu Islands, and although the defenders put up fierce resistance, the money was in vain in the huge ice of the Japanese army, and the Japanese finally occupied the two islands completely before dark.

But before the Japanese could come to their senses, the U.S. Navy's aircraft carriers USS Enterprise, USS Hornet, USS Yorktown, and more than 60 other large warships arrived in the area of engagement and immediately went into battle.

Yamamoto was overjoyed to learn that the main forces of the Pacific Fleet had arrived in the Aleutian Islands, and immediately ordered the main formation, the mobile formation, and the Midway landing formation, which had seized Midway, to immediately set off for Midway.

In order to settle the situation in one fell swoop, Yamamoto Fifty-six made a bloody investment this time, and the elite of the combined fleet poured out. The northern formation sent to the Aleutian Islands dispatched a total of 2 aircraft carriers, carrying 82 carrier-based aircraft, 1 seaplane carrier, 10 seaplanes, 3 heavy cruisers, 3 light cruisers, 12 destroyers, 6 submarines, 5 minesweepers, 3 transport ships, and 3 supply ships, with Vice Admiral Hososumi Shushiro as commander.

The main formation sent to Midway Island consisted of 1 aircraft carrier, 2 seaplane carriers, 19 carrier-based aircraft, 50 seaplanes, 7 battleships, 3 light cruisers, 21 destroyers, and 4 supply ships.

The mobile formation has 4 aircraft carriers, 266 carrier-based aircraft, 2 battleships, 2 heavy cruisers, 1 light cruiser, and 12 destroyers. There were 5 supply ships, and the commander was Vice Admiral Nagumo Tadaichi.

The Midway landing formation consisted of 1 aircraft carrier, 2 seaplane carriers, 23 carrier-based aircraft, 40 seaplanes, 2 battleships, 8 heavy cruisers, 2 light cruisers, 21 destroyers, and 14 transport ships. 8 supply ships. The commander was Lieutenant General Nobutake Kondo.

These four major formations have a total of 8 large aircraft carriers, 5 seaplane carriers, 11 battleships, 13 heavy cruisers, 9 light cruisers, 66 light cruisers, and more than 50 other auxiliary warships, which is equivalent to 85% of the combat strength of the Japanese Navy's combined fleet.

After the Battle of Aleutian began, Chen Shaokuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried about the Japanese navy's sneak attack on the Nanyang Territory. Although with the combat power of the Chinese Navy is not afraid of the Japanese Navy. But he was concerned about the combat effectiveness of the army, and naval operations had proven that the Chinese navy was far superior to the Japanese navy.

However, if the Japanese navy quietly approached the South Sea Territory and launched a landing operation, it would be troublesome. Because the Chen family had not been in possession of the Nanyang Territory for a long time, and the area of the island of New Guinea was very large, and the coastline was long, it was really difficult to closely monitor all the coastlines.

Although the army of Nanyang Ling claims to have 160,000, there are less than 80,000 real regular troops, organized into two divisions, three brigades and five regiments, and the rest are some police cars and joint defense forces, and their main responsibility is not to fight, but to maintain law and order, and it is difficult for these troops to engage the Japanese army face to face.

During this period, the Japanese navy's abnormal performance really caused Chen Shaokuan, Wang Hansheng, and others to pinch a cold sweat, and no less than 80 reconnaissance planes were dispatched every day to conduct reconnaissance in the waters around the Nanyang Territory 24 hours a day. But in addition to finding a few pirate ships, not a single other large ship was found, and I didn't expect the Japanese Navy to go to the Aleutian Islands.

However, before Chen Shaokuan and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, a top-secret telegram from China raised the hearts of Chen Shaokuan and the others to their throats again. The content of the telegram was very short, only a dozen words: "The three major fleets of the Navy immediately and secretly assembled, waiting for my arrival!" "It's Chen Feng.

Chairman Chen asked the navy to assemble immediately, and at the same time, he also wanted to come to Nanyang in person, what was going on, Chen Shaokuan and others couldn't figure it out, but looking at this plane, it should be a war.

In the middle of the night on May 4, large ships restocked with food, fuel, and ammunition quietly left Port Moresby and headed for the predetermined sea area to assemble.

At noon on 5 May, a C130 Hercules fighter plane that took off from Chongqing landed at a military airfield near Port Moresby under the protection of several modified strategic bombers.

However, Chen Feng did not enter the Nanyang Lord's Mansion after getting off the plane, and after meeting Yan Changxi at the airport in a hurry, he got on a helicopter and continued to hurry.

Two hours later, Chen Feng's fighter plane finally arrived in the Coral Sea and landed on the aircraft carrier Saibei.

On the aircraft carrier Saibei, Chen Shaokuan, Chang Zhiguo and others lined up to welcome them, and this was the first time that Chen Feng inspected the navy after the Nanyang Navy was renamed the Chinese Navy.

And this time Chen Feng's identity is very different from before, before Chen Feng was just a big warlord in China, and the Nanyang Navy was just his private army, so there was no need for everyone to fight so many tricks.

But now Chen Feng is still the same person, but his identity is different, and now Chen Feng is the leader of China and represents the Chinese government. Although Chen Feng has handed over the power in his hands to Mao and Zhou in Yan'an, because those two have not yet been completely recognized by the government, they are only acting chairman and acting president, so Chen Feng is still the nominal leader of China.

After the Nanyang Navy was officially renamed the Chinese Navy, the nature of this army also changed, from a private army of one person to an army of a country, so this time Chen Feng came to the navy not to inspect his own private army, but the leader of a country to inspect the navy of the country.
