According to Lin Xiuxuan's suggestion, Chu Tingchang was ashamed to send a telegram to Brooke, informing him that his information was absolutely reliable and that he could hunt Yamamoto 100%.

Brooke, who was far away in Washington, felt that this was too full, and if he didn't fulfill it, the consequences would be serious, but with his understanding of Chu Tingchang, as long as he said it, he could almost fulfill it. In the end, he decided not to change a word and sent the telegram directly to the president.

In fact, the appearance of Chu Tingchang has profoundly changed the political decision-making of the United States. At present, below the president, there is a mysterious group of supernatural predictions. In charge of this team is the chief astrologer of the United States, Ms. Stanley.

President Roosevelt currently met with Stanley once a week, and he met with General Marshall as often. He would look to Stanley for some advice, and then look for what he needed in the specious jargon.

With the first-hand intelligence of the Strategic Intelligence Agency, Hitler has also set up his own astrological prediction team, which is led by Himmler, who has made some achievements in the study of mysterious forces.

As a result of Himmler's advice, Hitler even postponed the plan to counterattack the Soviet "fortress" in Kharkov. Because Himmler's chief psychic saw hordes of beasts in a dream, helping the Valkyrie defeat the barbarians of the East. In a trance, he shouted: the beast of prey defeated the Bolsheviks.

This sentence was interpreted by Hitler to mean that this decisive battle must rely on more new tanks and tank destroyers. Because these tanks were named: "Tiger", "Leopard" and "Elephant".

Roosevelt quickly accepted Chu's assurances, and a week earlier, his actress had come to the same conclusion: Mars' retrograde transit to Cancer in June would lead to the fall of an important figure of the enemy, who would die of liver disease in the crescent moon or a bullet hit the liver. But the enemy may gain new war forces with the help of Mercury energy in July, and this turnaround will appear on the day of the eclipse.

If taken seriously, this prediction is tantamount to nonsense, because almost every month there are deaths of high-ranking Axis officials, and every month there are new Axis weapons, so the prediction is easy to fulfill.

But in any case, conforming to the will of God is what President Roosevelt needs at this moment, and this is what Roosevelt thinks at this moment. His Manhattan project was slowly underway, and he was not very worried about the enemy's new weapons, which might just be some kind of radar or could be hit from France to London.

Roosevelt seemed to be very interested in Chief Chu, and he questioned Brooke further about his wonderful deeds in the past.

Brooke painfully recalls the days when he forcibly reshaped his worldview. Although he was born into an Irish Catholic family, he ceased to believe in any other sophistry outside of science from the age of twenty until he met Chu Tingchang...... Everything has changed in a profound way.

Brooke still remembers the scene when he first participated in the military decision-making of the chief of Chu in northern Burma, he saw that the chief of Chu Tingchang actually divined directly on the military map, and then according to the arrangement of the copper coins, he modified the red arrows of the enemy's attack on the map, and wiped out the enemy situation reported by the real scouts. Brooke felt humiliated, a grave blasphemy against the military intelligence profession, and he was eager to pull out and kill Captain Chu because he wanted his soldiers to die for a turtle shell.

The battle that night was one-sided, and the pursuing enemy actually followed the route guided by the turtle and walked directly into the ambush circle of Chu Tingchang. It was later found that in order to attack, the Japanese army also carried out a feint, and this feint successfully deceived Chu Tingchang's scouts, but did not deceive his turtle shell.

Brooke took some time and recounted several experiences, and he didn't want to deliberately deify Chu Tingchang, but as long as these things were told truthfully, it was enough.

"Brooke, these Eastern philosophies, really fascinate me?"

The president said with a sense of fascination.

"Mr. President, that is, you intend to support this operation?"

"Of course, let the lads do it. Yamamoto was the culprit behind the attack on Hawaii, and we should recover the blood debt. It will also benefit the issuance of our war bonds, and we must show the people what we have done. ”

220 nautical miles west of the Malay Peninsula. Two slow-moving American escort aircraft carriers quietly approached. There were only a few old destroyers scattered around them. What started as a simple task of transporting army aircraft suddenly turned into a combat mission. No one thought that this kind of small aircraft carrier, which was converted from a merchant ship, could actually carry out offensive missions on the first combat voyage, but the pilots on board were all eager to try. The lads are all waiting for a meaningful fight.

The new P38 fighter is much faster than the Japanese planes, so even if you are less skilled, you don't have to worry about escaping, provided you don't go around in circles with the nimble Japanese planes. The pilots arrived from mainland China on aircraft carriers, each with an average of only 150 hours of training in the air, and was supposed to complete the final drill at the 10th Air Force. Now they have been given this glorious task.

The sailors began to empty the deck, of course, not to send the planes through the lifts to the hangars below deck, since the hangars were also filled with single-engine fighters, and the lifts could not fit the P38 aircraft with twin engines and could not fold the wings. Ten brand-new planes in front of the queue, propelled into the sea, this is the only way to solve the problem. The pilots had a hunch that this mission was quite important, otherwise they would not have spent so much money.

With half the deck length, take-off is not a problem, and there is no need for experiments on land, because a year ago, there was an experience of B25 aircraft taking off from an aircraft carrier, although it was a fleet carrier with a longer runway, but the B25 carried*, much heavier than lightning. After takeoff, the planes will hit their targets and then return to their bases in Myanmar.

The aircraft carrier floated on the sea, risking a lot, and although the Japanese fleet had retreated to Malacca, there were Japanese submarines here at any time, and Japanese planes taking off from the Malay base could sometimes fly here. But the order to take off was delayed.

The pilots waited in the briefing room below deck, and the blackboard in front of them was already pasted with a picture of Isoroku Yamamoto, which was of no use to identifying their targets, but it was a good morale boost. Everyone knows that this man attacked Pearl Harbor. All he needs now is the departure time of his fleet.

"New intelligence ......," an officer walked in quickly, "There will be as many as 20 to 30 fighter jets around Yamamoto's plane. ”

"Is this * really afraid of death?"

"How's the clouds going today?"

"We've got information that the clouds are low."

"We can use the cover of the clouds to suddenly break through their formation......"

The task was issued in a hurry, and there was no specific plan, so everyone discussed the details word by word.

"According to intelligence, there will be three main targets in the fleet: two Betty, one transport aircraft of unknown type. That's our goal, those Zero fighters are not our goal. ”

"Understood."

"Lads, all the ammunition has been replaced with tracer armor-piercing *, and a few hits will make those planes burn, but if possible, try to be in the air and beat them until they disintegrate and avoid them from crash-landing."

"We'll just use the 20mm cannon and send that old dog to hell."

At the Kuala Lumpur Army Airport, Yamamoto's convoy had just arrived, and he wanted to wait until night before taking off, as it was actually very close to Singapore from here, and it was safer to sail at night, but yesterday, the American fleet appeared near the Marianas, which made him unable to sit still. The land-based air pilots who were attacking at that time saw at least two U.S. aircraft carriers near the Mariana Islands, one of which may be a new Essex-class aircraft carrier and the other is an old adversary, the Enterprise.

Essex appeared at least three months earlier than he expected, and Asano told him that the new American aircraft carriers would appear in the Pacific Ocean in the fall of '43, but it was only June. He couldn't sit still and wanted to hurry back to Rabaul and organize a counterattack. Onishi had assured him that the new guided weapons could neutralize the enemy's rapidly launching carriers, and he was anxious to deploy for battle.

At the Japanese base, the pilots began to assemble, and they were to take off before Yamamoto's plane. Waiting in the air to rendezvous with the transport plane, as for why the commander put on such a big show, they do not know.

Spy lurking near the base. Given the approximate take-off time, he pretended to be stupid and was able to sneak into the delivery area outside the base, but he still couldn't enter the core area with many sentry posts, but he could see Yamamoto's convoy arriving far from the runway, and the time was almost up. As the first Zero took off, the Spy walked to the window and fiddled with a mirror he had placed there.

The reflection of the mirror was easily visible by the comrades on duty on the nearby hills. The spies there sent a report to Chen Ping: the enemy is moving.

Of course, at the same time, 419 also freed up a drone from the battlefield in Thailand to fly over the enemy to observe Yamamoto's whereabouts. Yamamoto's convoy was too ostentatious, he was obviously not as accustomed to stealthy operations as Kagesa, and he should have been warned of some kind, but he probably had reason to be afraid, because the American aircraft carriers were all in Marianas, and the US Army planes couldn't reach him, so even if he acted boldly, no one here could threaten him.

The two escort carriers quickly got the news. The first to take off were the two squadron leaders. After they take off, the deck of the aircraft carrier will become longer, and the planes in the back will be easier to take off.

The first P38, quickly rushed off the runway, went some distance to the download, and finally pulled up. The sailors on deck cheered, and the second plane followed suit and took off. Each carrier will take off nine planes, eventually making up 18 planes and flying to Kuala Lumpur, where pilots will rely on their eyesight to search for enemy fleets. Once they find their target, they will use their increased speed and extreme firepower to launch a round of attacks.

Yamamoto was still waiting by the airport, and the vehicle transporting Makino had not yet arrived. Makino's condition was unstable, and the doctor did not agree with the flight, and of course the doctor could not make better recommendations, which made Yamamoto undecided.
