Hanoi, almost at the same time that Gu Lianyun and Guo Muyi were talking about Ouyang Yun, the latter was sitting on a chair and quietly looking at a new secret message from Chen Shichang with a codebook.

Guo Muyi's speculation is accurate. At this time, Ouyang Yun had indeed already had the idea of evacuating Chen Shichang and his group of ships from the United States. In fact, since 1941, he has been thinking about it in his head.

Regarding the Pearl Harbor incident, Ouyang Yun's mood is quite complicated. Originally, he hoped that Japan would be able to inflict heavy damage on the US Pacific Fleet or even annihilate it completely, because only then would China have a chance to become the absolute protagonist in the Asian theater of World War II. However, after learning that the Japanese battleships Yamato and Wuwei had been transformed into aircraft carriers, he was worried that if the US Pacific Fleet was completely destroyed, he would lose the naval strength that could restrain the Japanese, and the navy of the Cadet Army would be pushed to the foreground prematurely.

It is not easy to build an aircraft carrier fleet from scratch, after the formation of the Yandi aircraft carrier fleet, Chen Shichang sent back no less than ten secret telegrams. What made Ouyang Yun very worried was that almost every telegram contained reports of training casualties, and even he would bring up his heart every time he opened the secret telegram now, for fear that there would be a number in it that he couldn't bear.

The casualties were mainly in the area of HNA. Although there were retired U.S. Navy officers to help with the training, all the cadets were in contact for the first time, so some strange casualties appeared. As for the crash, it happens almost every big training session.

Ouyang Yun originally wanted to wait for the Yandi aircraft carrier fleet to fully form its combat strength before letting them leave the United States, but as the haze of war in the Pacific Ocean became lower and lower, he didn't dare to take the risk and decided to withdraw them first.

"Retreating to Karachi is a good option, but before that, we must first find a way to block the Japanese road west into the Indian Ocean - mines?" Ouyang Yun was pondering the blockade of the Strait of Malacca, when Pan Meiren walked in with another telegram. "The eldest sister is here," she said, handing him the telegram.

Ouyang Yun opened it with an "oh", then flipped the codebook to the corresponding number of pages, and looked at it carefully. Pan Meiren saw that the teacup in front of him was empty, so she took it to Jishui, and when she turned around, she found that his lips were tightly pursed, and his face was flushed with anger. She put the teacup down and asked, "Is there any bad news?" ”

Ouyang Yun slammed the telegram on the table and said, "The Jews are becoming more and more disagreeable. The next moment, he picked up the pen and dragged the notepad, wrote two paragraphs in Long Feifeng and handed it to her: "The top one is sent to Gu Lianyun, and the bottom one is sent to Chen Shichang!" ”

Pan Meiren glanced at it, nodded and walked out.

Half an hour later, Gu Lianyun and Guo Muyi saw the secret telegram sent to them, and the two of them translated the telegram and read it one after another, Guo Muyi said: "The commander-in-chief is angry!" I hope the Jews know each other. ”

Gu Lianyun sealed the telegram and said, "Let's see what Hull will say tomorrow." ”

The next day, when the two sides cooperated again on the specific terms of the cooperation agreement, in the hidden clause, when Gu Lianyun put forward the request of the student army to add the article on the issue of the aircraft carrier of the Jews, Hull was stunned at first, and then smiled.

One thing Gu Lianyun didn't know was that the reason why the Zionist Organization reversed course on the issue of aircraft carriers and failed to fulfill its promises was of course because of the influence of the Guangzhou Jewish Chamber of Commerce, but the biggest reason was the attitude of the US government. It turned out that after the Japanese and Western expeditionary fleets invaded Southeast Asia, the U.S. Navy sensed the urgency of the war, and they were eager to increase their strength, so they also took a fancy to the Jewish aircraft carriers and offered to the Fuguo Organization to buy them at a high price.

The price offered by the U.S. Navy was so attractive that the Zionist organization intended to sell one for itself and keep one, with additional conditions that the U.S. government must guarantee the safety of the Jews in Canton, in other words, if the Cadet Army was angry with the Jews, the U.S. government would have to settle the situation.

Hull took part in the operation, and he felt that it was pointless for the Zionist Organization to keep an aircraft carrier fleet, and at that time he had an idea that since the Jews and the Cadet Army had already agreed to divide the two aircraft carriers. Not only that, but in view of the fact that the strength of the U.S. Navy far exceeds that of the Cadet Navy, he further thought: If the two sides can be promoted to establish a joint command in wartime, then wouldn't the U.S. Navy have three more aircraft carrier fleets at once (at this time, the Americans did not know that Britain had leased the "Grievance-class" aircraft carriers in Karachi to the Cadet Army)?

"No problem at all!" Hull agreed on the spot, smiling as he watched as the recorder added this to the hidden clause.

At half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Hull represented the US Government and Gu Lianyun represented Xuebingjun, and the two sides signed the cooperation agreement, and then held a small press conference to announce it.

Two days later, Hull and Gu Lianyun visited the secret headquarters of the Zionist organization, and after about two hours of verbal debate, the Jews were defeated, and after receiving a number of verbal assurances, the two freshly baked aircraft carrier fleets were handed over to the U.S. government and the Cadet Corps respectively.

On the third day, Chen Shichang, who received the notice, immediately took about 2,000 students to receive the fleet that belonged to them, and then spent two days driving to the sea area where the Yandi aircraft carrier fleet was located, and began intense adaptability training.

When Chen Shichang and his family were actively preparing to return to Asia, Ouyang Yun in Hanoi ushered in good news - Ombos and Degu coincided, and more than 10,000 French naval officers and sailors of the Far East Fleet refused the invitation of Wavell and Phillips to come to Hanoi on their own initiative, except for more than 2,000 French naval officers and sailors who voluntarily joined the British Z Fleet.

For this matter, Wavell sent a telegram to Ouyang Yun, "kindly" explaining Degu's motives for coming to Hanoi last time, and reminding him to be careful of the group of French led by Degu.

After reading this telegram, Ouyang Yunha said to Zhang Liang beside him with a smile: "This Wavell is an interesting person, but I don't know what kind of expression Lu Dao will have when he sees the Frenchman who appears as a student volunteer soldier in the future?" ”

After Zhang Liang's injury was almost healed, Ouyang Yun promoted him to Liu Kui's deputy. Since Liu Kui escorted a batch of mines urgently transported from Haikou by fighter plane to Chittagong the day before yesterday, he has been in charge of all the security work of the General Headquarters during this period.

Zhang Liang knew about the last time he came to Hanoi, and also knew that the British were involved in it, so he smiled and said: "The old British man will be ashamed, right?" ”

Ouyang Yunwan smiled and did not continue the topic, and ordered: "You go and tell Secretary Pan and let her reply to the old man in England like this-I am very grateful for his 'kind' reminder, and I will definitely take good care of the French." In addition, it is hoped that the work of laying torpedoes in the Strait of Malacca will be intensified, and if there are not enough mines, we are willing to provide another batch free of charge! ”
