298 Change in Nagoya
Nagoya.
A group of dozens of Japanese player leaders gathered in a military tent, and the leaders of various island factions such as Kyushu Island, Shikoku Island, Honshu Island, and Hokkaido Island glared at each other angrily, and their swords were drawn and filled with the smell of gunpowder.
An old man said angrily: "Oda-kun, this is the best chance to defeat the allied forces of South Korea, North Korea, and the Philippines. The Chinese are now fighting with the Indians, and they simply cannot take a step to manage the East Asian war. Now is the time for us to attack on all fronts, drive the Triple Alliance into the sea with one blow, and sweep away the gloom of the past few months. We need to seize this opportunity to gather the forces of the four islands and carry out a decisive attack, and after driving out the three-country alliance forces on Kyushu and Tsushima, we will drive out the Chinese entrenched in Ryukyu. Oda-kun, are you going to make a move? Give me a clear answer. ”
The young Japanese man opposite the old man said disapprerovingly: "Suzuki-kun, don't be impatient. Don't just think about your Kyushu Island, think about the interests of the entire Japanese community, and focus on the big picture! ”
"Hmph, Oda-kun doesn't want to make a move at all? What are you afraid of? Afraid of retaliation from the Chinese? ”
"It's not that I'm reluctant to make a move, it's that Suzuki-kun has set the wrong target."
"What do you mean by that?"
"The allied forces of South Korea, North Korea and the Philippines are just pawns of Chinese players, and they try their best to beat these pawns down, but they can't hurt the Chinese behind them. Therefore, I have always advocated an all-out war with South Korea, the DPRK and the Philippines, but should endure humiliation, silently accumulate strength, and wait for the best opportunity to counterattack. ”
"Oda-kun, when China and Russia went to war, you also said that you should wait for a good opportunity. But what did you wait for? When the Chinese drive the Russians out of the Far East, from then on we will not be able to set foot in Vladivostok for half a step, and miss the opportunity to go north to the Far East, this is the result you have to wait for?! If we give it a go. Maybe we can now compete with the Chinese in East Asia. ”
"That's because the Russians are useless, they can't hold the Far East themselves, and they refuse us to board in Vladivostok.6 for fear that we will cut off their way of escape. What does it matter to me that the Russians are defeated in the Far East? Besides, at that time, it was decided not to move, and you all voted in favor, why do you now shift the responsibility to me alone? ”
The young man snapped.
Everyone hurriedly persuaded each other: "Oda-kun, Suzuki-kun, don't argue about the previous things." Let's talk about it now. China and India are about to go to war, and the timing is extremely rare, can we fight it or not? "If I miss this rare opportunity, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight in the future."
"Hit, of course you have to fight!"
The young man's piercing gaze swept over the crowd. Yin said ruthlessly: "Not only to fight, but also to fight big, to fight with the Chinese, to fight an East Asian hegemony." He slapped his palm on a spot on the map on the table, and the leaders looked at the position of his palm, all in shock.
Taiwan!
The headquarters of the Chinese Pacific Fleet is located, and it is also the hub for Chinese players to control the entire East Asian navigation line. The Chinese side is massing heavy naval forces here. It stuck Japan's southward shipping route to Southeast Asia and deterred Southeast Asian countries.
The leaders of the congregations were all shocked by Oda's audacity. Even Suzuki Yu did not expect that Oda did not plan to fight with the Triple Alliance on Kyushu Island at all, but to go to Taiwan to fight with the Chinese fleet.
"If this is the case, it will be tantamount to a full-scale national war between Japan and China. There is no room for redemption! "Oda, wouldn't it be too risky? Our current strength is already a little reluctant just to deal with the combined forces of the ROK, North Korea and the Philippines. If you add the Chinese fleet, I'm afraid. ”
"I've made up my mind, I don't need to say more!"
The young man said sharply: "Since ancient times, the most taboo thing in the way of using soldiers is to be attacked on both sides. Chinese gamers have always liked to boast that they use their soldiers like gods, and no one can match them, but now they have committed this taboo. They were wrong not to have fought with Japan before they could compete with us, so they hurried to 5,000 miles away to fight a naval battle with India. Although he has the ambition to seek hegemony in Asia, he has forgotten the stone under his feet. They are even more wrong in thinking that they only use the South Korean and North Korean and Philippine armies. will be able to contain our military power. Wrong. Too much contempt for our military might! They actually regarded our deliberate patience and humiliation as cowardice. If you are so careless and arrogant, you will definitely lose. I will make the Chinese pay for this, let them taste the loss of the Pacific Ocean and the defeat of the Indian Ocean. Passing on my orders, collecting all warships from all over Japan, gathering in Nagoya, and fighting with all the strength of the country, I want to let the Chinese know that Japan is not unmanned. ”
The leaders of the congregation were silent, silently acquiescing to his supreme command.
On December 16, China's Indian Ocean Fleet declared war on India, and 2,000 warships officially marched to the Nicobar Islands and the Andaman Islands.
Almost at the same time, almost all the fleets of players in the entire Japanese archipelago received the exact same order: all ships, as long as they could fight, should immediately put down everything at hand, abandon all maritime defenses, and go to Nagoya to assemble.
Many Japanese players warship captains received this order and were confused, what to do in Nagoya? Even if the South Korean fleet takes advantage of the situation, all the Japanese coastline will be directly exposed to the enemy's territory, and it will be impossible to resist it.
However, this order is the highest-level order from the Japan Federation of Game Clubs, and it has the signatures of the leaders of each assembly, and it is mandatory and binding on all members of Japanese clubs, even ordinary Japanese players, and no warship dares to oppose it.
Some Japanese players, who are very sensitive to military affairs, alertly linked this matter to the Sino-Indian naval war. Because of the coincidence of timing, the Chinese fleet had just declared war against India, and the Japanese alliance here immediately issued a rally order.
Scattered across the ports of the island of Japan, the fleet began to head to Nagoya.
On the azure sea, the atmosphere was tense and serious, and the Japanese fleets did not say anything when they met them at sea, but they knew what to expect, but they rowed their boats with a very tacit understanding. This is not the first time they have done this kind of thing, and they want to attack Pearl Harbor in the United States during World War II.
The leaders of the Japan Federation of Societies will not suddenly issue the highest level of assembly orders for no reason. It is not known with whom and how to fight, but there is no doubt that Japan will definitely fight a big war.
There are many coastlines and ports on the islands of Japan, and most of the ships are very scattered, one, two, three or five warships, and more than a dozen warships have been pulled out of the grassy shelter on the coast, and they have come out of the unknown port of the horns, some are very dilapidated dhows, and some have just launched the sea with brand-new three-masted warships, and they are not usually seen.
In the beginning, there were very few warships popping up from all over the country, but the closer you got to the port of Nagoya, the more warships numbered and covered the sky and the sun, like the sea formed by countless streams, to a shocking point.
These ships were very large, mainly three-masted ships, with a small number of four-masted ships, and a large number of two-masted ships. In addition, the number of cargo sailing ships, fishing boats, small boats, and small boats is extremely large, and although they cannot fight naval warfare, they can be used to transport troops and materials, and they are one of the most important forces in naval warfare. Many Japanese players knew that there was a "likely" war and brought in the sailboats that were carrying the goods.
The leaders of the Nippon Kaisha Alliance looked south of Ise Bay on the Chita Peninsula and were shocked to see the ships on the sea of Ise Bay in Nagoya.
As an island nation, Japan has many coastlines and ports. Usually the ships are scattered all over the place, and it is difficult to count the number of them, and they themselves have no way of knowing how many there are. Today, when they gathered on a large scale, they suddenly realized that there were so many ships in Japan. Some of them were initially apprehensive about this operation, but when they saw this, their confidence suddenly soared.
It is impossible to figure out exactly how many warships and cargo ships were assembled in Ise Bay, and all the ships together were about 20,000 or 30,000 people. There are still a lot of ships coming from all over the Japanese archipelago, and the old ones are not counted, and the new ones are coming again.
On top of that, they don't have the time to count either.
The action was very sudden, and it seized the gap between the Chinese and Indian fleets in the war. The Chinese players took all the 5,000 three-masted capital warships of the original Pacific Fleet to the Indian Ocean Fleet and marched into the Indian Ocean, almost emptying the combat power deployed in the East Asian seas. The new Pacific Fleet has not yet been formed, and only a part of it has arrived at the Keelung military port in Taiwan, and the lack of training is precisely the time when the combat effectiveness of the Chinese fleet is the most vulnerable. If you don't know how to seize this kind of combat opportunity, then all Japanese players will be fools. Japan is not one of those small countries in Southeast Asia, and it will be a weak country with peace of mind, and there are few players in Japan who do not want to be a strong country. If we want to be a strong country, we must challenge other strong countries and seize hegemony.
Japan is too weak to challenge China alone. But now there is an India, which is dragging down almost half of the main forces of the Chinese fleet in the Indian Ocean. The pressure on the Japanese to carry out a surprise attack was greatly reduced.
Until the defeat of the Indian fleet, Japan will not have to bear military pressure from China alone.
This gap is very short, about ten days, but it can definitely be used. Tens of thousands of ships, the player leads them to form a tight formation. In the early morning of the next day, hundreds of Japanese four-masted warships, 3,000 three-masted warships, 5,000 two-masted warships, and countless small ships formed a mighty Japanese fleet group, leaving Nagoya and heading for Kagoshima. It is planned to pass through Kagoshima, follow the navigation line of the Ryukyu Islands, and directly attack Keelung, Taiwan.
Ten three-masted test gunboats led by the Bloody Dancing Sun were slowly heading towards Kagoshima, intending to find a good harbor to board.6 At this time, they had no idea that as long as they walked more than ten nautical miles forward and turned a corner, they would be able to run into a dense and frightening number of Japanese fleet clusters head-on.
