Two thousand three hundred kilometers northwest of Port Vila, New British Island, Rabaul, the headquarters of the Southeast Front of the East Asian Coalition Army. 【】【】

"Welcome, welcome."

Marshal Zhang Yiye, the commander of the theater of operations in full uniform, greeted a young officer who was no more than in his early thirties.

The comer was handsome and upright, with a demeanor, and the rank of lieutenant colonel on his shoulders was inlaid with the characteristic red border of a staff officer, and his gestures revealed a palace-like elegance that was difficult to hide.

"Lieutenant Colonel Amur Linggui, the military attache of the palace attendant and the special liaison officer of the base camp, has met the commander."

This young officer, whose appearance is difficult to discern the characteristics of the Mongol race, is the great-grandson of the former Qing Dynasty important minister Gelin Qin, and the hereditary prince of Inner Mongolia Bodol Gatai.

During the reign of the first emperor, Amur Linggui was selected to serve as a guard in the forbidden area, and after the current empress ascended the throne, he was promoted to the adjutant of the imperial guard, and later served in the headquarters of the Mongolian Special Military District, the General Staff Operations Department and other high-level organs. After the start of the war, he was transferred to the 1st Army, which was mainly composed of Mongolian officers and soldiers, and successively served as the commander of the cavalry battalion and the chief staff officer of the cavalry regiment.

"Don't be formal, sit down."

Zhang Yiye knew that this Amur Linggui was a confidant of Her Majesty's majesty, and the "August Incident" allowed him to see that woman's methods, and from then on, he did not dare to take lightly any people and things that were involved with the empress.

After a courtesy greeting, the two sat down face to face, and Amur Linggui took out a stack of documents from the briefcase he was carrying, and handed it to Zhang Yiye with both hands.

"This is the base camp's plan for reorganizing the command system of the southeastern theater of operations, as well as the guidelines for combat operations in the theater in the next three months."

"To put it simply, the forces under the Front Theater will be divided into four parts: the New Guinea Front, the Solomon Front, the Theater Combined Fleet, and the Theater Joint Air Force, and the commanders of each department will directly obey the orders of the theater commander and will no longer accept the orders of other command systems. That's it."

"In the next three months, the front theater should steadily expand its forward bases in the direction of New Guinea and the Solomon Islands by leaping forward point by point within the effective cover of shore-based aviation, so as to lay the foundation for restarting F operations with sufficient forces in the future."

"The immediate operational objectives of the Frontal Theater are, first, to establish an forward base in Buna, Papua Peninsula, and second, to establish an forward base on Russell Island in the Solomon Islands."

Zhang Yiye listened silently to the document, shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "I know that the navy is scared, and Kuah Island will not be able to fight, but if there is not enough sea and air support, I can't guarantee that I can take Buna and Russell Island." ”

"The base camp has made a decision and vetoed the proposal to transfer the main forces of the combined fleet to the outer South Seas, and the Gulf of Aden strategy continues to proceed as originally planned -- at the same time, the aviation battle in the Turkish Straits is also becoming white-hot, and the base camp cannot transfer more naval and air forces to reinforce other theaters for the time being."

Seeing that Zhang Yiye's face suddenly became gloomy, Amur Linggui hurriedly added: "However, in view of the fact that the enemy on the Australian side has shown considerable strength, in order to make up for the loss of combat strength in the front theater in a naval battle of the Solomons, the base camp has decided to replenish the following naval and air forces for the front theater in the next three months——"

"First of all, in the past month, he will be transferred to the 102nd Task Force of the Army Air Force, which has four fighter squadrons, three light bomber squadrons, two heavy bomber squadrons, and one reconnaissance aircraft squadron, with an establishment of 48 fighters and bombers, and nine reconnaissance planes, totaling 105 shore-based combat aircraft."

"Secondly, in July and August, the 7th Light Cruiser, the 23rd Destroyer, the 21st Diving Brigade, and the 41st Special Air Squadron were transferred to the Navy, with a total of two new light cruisers, four destroyers, six submarines, and three aviation escort auxiliary vessels. Among them, the 41st Special Air Corps carried three special carrier-based aircraft squadrons on board, with a total of 42 carrier-based aircraft. ”

"Finally, between September and October, if the Gulf of Aden strategy goes well, the five main warships of the 3rd and 4th warships will be transferred to the front theater first, and there will be four to eight destroyers and six to twelve submarines or submarines along with them."

Listening and listening, Zhang Yiye's expression gradually relaxed, but when he turned to a page of the table, it suddenly turned cloudy.

I saw that the compilation table was printed with-

"What do you mean by stuffing so many little Japanese and Koryo sticks? Originally, the two fleet commanders in the theater were Japanese, but this time a little Japanese has been added as the commander of the Solomon Front, and in the future, I will either learn Japanese, or I will simply give them the position of commander of the theater."

In the face of Zhang Yiye's frenzy, Amur Linggui didn't care, and continued slowly and methodically: "As soon as the Gulf of Aden strategy achieves its intended goal, the base camp will dispatch the main force or part of the combined fleet according to the situation, and send additional army and naval aviation units to support the decisive offensive launched by the front theater. ”

Zhang Yiye was angry and slapped on the edge of the table: "Don't play official with me, you heard what I just said, go back and tell your master, either remove me, or change Chinese to be the commander of the Solomon Front - I have enough little Japan here"

Amurlingwe replied with a courtly smile: "I will convey the commander's intentions to the emperor and the headquarters, but before the new appointment is issued, I still hope that the commander will get along well with the commanders of the subordinate departments." ”

Zhang Yiye wanted to put something slimy on that face that was indifferent to his feelings, but he didn't have such a thing at hand, and more importantly, he knew that the smile actually came from the woman in the palace that he could never see through - not the young prince in front of him who had no soul of his self.
