In the days when he was waiting for the large army to gather in Xiamen, Gao Jianwu was not idle.

The capture of Xiamen had already impressed General Mack of the allied forces, so with the support of General Mack, Gao Jianwu began to work with General DeMoore to launch a clean-up of the periphery of Wanwan Island, first taking Jingmen Island, and then taking Taipeng.

The little devil didn't expect Gao Jianwu to fight back so quickly, and the fortifications built on these islands were far inferior to those on the Pacific side, hollowing out an entire mountain and building a spider web-like tunnel.

In these places, the little devils thought that no one could help them, but they only built regular fortifications, which were not enough for General DeMoore to play with a fleet of naval guns!

It is worth mentioning that due to General DeMoore's brilliant performance, General Mack transferred a Brooklyn-class cruiser USS Phoenix from the Pacific Fleet to Admiral DeMoore as his new flagship, and cooperated with Gao Jianwu to complete the peripheral attack plan to land on Wanwan Island, after all, there is still a fleet that is not weak in Kaohsiung Harbor.

At the same time, another heavyweight battlefleet also sailed into the port of Xiamen and began to deter the little devils.

However, whether Gao Jianwu can fulfill his promise to recover Wanwan Island, General Mack will take him as if he can operate, provide sea and air support for Gao Jianwu's plan, and most of the promised weapons and ammunition have been brought to Xiamen, in addition to the promised tanks, there is also a batch on the road, waiting for Gao Jianwu to land on Wanwan Island, and the rest of the light and heavy weapons are basically in place.

Gao Jianwu's six attack groups of the Southeast Task Force were all rearmed.

With this action, the allies almost told each other in person that I was going to come to your Wanwan Island.

......

The base camp of the little devils, the joint meeting of the sea and land, and the little devils of the sea and land factions almost got up again.

"Gentlemen, the attack plan of the allies and Gao Jianwu is already obvious, they have completed the assembly of troops and the preparation of the periphery, and our outer islands of Pengjinma have all fallen. It's time to show that we're all together through this. ”

Tojo Chick had a big head at the quarrel between the two factions, and stood up to play a round game.

"This battle is related to the safety of our Southern Army and the transportation of resources from the occupied areas in the South, and it is absolutely impossible for us to lose this war, so I suggest that the Navy send the main fleet, as well as the absolute strength of naval aviation, to carry out a devastating blow to the Allied fleet in the Wanwan Strait!"

"This is where the core interests of the Empire lie. You can't go on and on. ”

"Tojo-kun, our navy believes that this is a smoke bomb released by the Allied forces, and their main attack place is definitely not Wanwan Island, but somewhere else, according to the judgment of our intelligence department, their target is likely to be Luzon.

Intelligence officers close to the Allied Headquarters in Hong Kong and Kowloon have already obtained information that some of the Allied forces are planning to attack Luzon. ”

"Our intelligence sources indicate that at least nearly 300,000 Allied forces have begun to assemble, and they have already targeted Lyte Island to prepare for a new round of fighting, and to gain a springboard for attacking Luzon by occupying Lyte Island, for which the main forces of the Allied Seventh and Third Fleets have been assembled to escort this large Allied force."

"Relatively speaking, the small maneuver that the Allies are doing on the other side of the strait should be a smoke bomb, and they are letting off the wind that the Southeast Task Force, which is composed of all the Chinese troops, will attack Wanwan Island, and for this reason they have also made a gesture to take our islands in Pengjinma."

"However, there is no indication that the Allies will be involved in the combat mission of the Southeastern Task Force. According to the information we have now, this so-called Southeast Task Force is just a guerrilla force that does not even have an official number. ”

"I would like to ask you, my locust army has at least more than 200,000 people on Wanwan Island, how much threat can this guerrilla force pose to us?"

The little devil Kaixiang did not hesitate to refute Tojo Chick.

I have to say that the little devil's intelligence is still very accurate. They had already approached a large part of the truth, but they didn't expect that Gao Jianwu, who was in the north, also really wanted to attack.

It's just that Gao Jianwu's offensive plan not only caused an uproar within the allies, but also made the outside world mistakenly believe that this was just a cover to cover people's eyes, and it was also fake, and it was not worth considering at all.

Since Gao Jianwu did not need much cooperation from the allied forces, but only needed the support of the navy and air force, it seemed that Gao Jianwu's plan was just a threat.

"Shimada-kun, Gao Jianwu's greatness, the Southern Army has fully comprehended it, and the recent events in Central China once again remind us that Gao Jianwu should not be underestimated, otherwise we will suffer a big loss.

You know, we have just lost one division in Xiamen and two more brigades in Jingmen Island and Penghu, and we have learned enough lessons. If Gao Jianwu's army is allowed to land, with our forces scattered on Wanwan Island, who will be able to stop his attack? "Tojo Chick directly laid out the actual situation.

I have to say that the shadow left by Gao Jianwu is too big, and now they all have a sense of powerlessness when they talk about this person.

"Tojo-kun, Gao Jianwu's is also a person and not a god. If he does dare to land, we will definitely find a way to get him on the island.

However, the Combined Fleet must not waste time on this side of the strait, but must go south to concentrate the main Allied fleet for a decisive battle. We must destroy the Allied fleet in order to gain a foothold in the south. If we lose Luzon.

Then it is equivalent to pushing the Southern Army into a dangerous situation single-handedly. After the Allies occupy Luzon, they can cut off our southbound passage at any time. Our supplies in the south cannot be brought back to our homeland, and at the same time, our supplies to the southern army cannot be transported to them. ”

The little devil's sea minister continued to retort.

For the information obtained by their navy, the sea phase of the little devil is convinced. In fact, this information is also true, and there is no reason why he doesn't believe it.

Seeing that the meeting was about to break up unhappily again, Tojo Chick frowned. He wanted to find a foolproof solution, but it was impossible now.

After several naval and air battles in the Pacific, the combined fleet of the little devils has been greatly weakened. It was already very difficult for their forces to cope with one aspect, let alone to spread them in two places.

If the Allies really dispatched the 3rd Fleet and the 7th Fleet, the combined fleet of the little devils and the main forces of the other major sub-fleets would have to concentrate to have a slight chance of winning.

It is more than 1,000 kilometers from the strait to Tewan Bay, and there is absolutely no way to do both.

Frankly, Tojo Chick also received information about the Allied attack on Luzon. After all, the army intelligence department of the little devil is also quite powerful, and the infiltration of the allies is no worse than the naval intelligence department.

It's just that Gao Jianwu really left too many shadows on Tojo chicks. From Jindi to Burma and Britain, to the Southeast Asian Peninsula, and a series of battles in South China and Central China, the locust army suffered extremely heavy losses.

If it weren't for Gao Jianwu, Tojo Chicken would not have paid attention to the Southeast Task Force at all, and now there is no one who can defeat the Locust Army like Gao Jianwu with the same strength.

The disagreement in the little devil's base camp also spread to Wanwan Island.

The commander of the Little Devil Fleet stationed in Kaohsiung received a strict order from the Admiralty that the fleet was never allowed to cross the harbor for engagement. Rather, it is to ensure the security of the army by relying on the air defense of the port and the air defense of the fleet itself.

Now the locust army and the navy are no longer able to gain air superiority over the strait, and the navy has just buried a flying team in the sky over Xiamen.

There was only one Zero fighter squadron left, and the other was dozens of Nakajima-1 fighters of the Army Aviation, and there was no way for the Mustang fighter fleet on the Allied side to fight against it.

Therefore, the Admiralty demanded that the fleet rely on a three-dimensional air defense network composed of port anti-aircraft artillery fire and destroyer anti-aircraft artillery fire, and cooperate with the Zero fighter squadron of the Navy to counterattack any enemy air force that dares to bomb the fleet.

In terms of the battle tactics of the Devil Navy, their orders are understandable. After all, whether it is a temporary fighter flight team or a naval fleet, it is to be beaten.

With the addition of a cruiser to Rear Admiral Demore's destroyers, the ability to attack ships increased dramatically, not to mention the presence of a battleship detachment at the Summer Gate.

It can be said that the Allied side completely overwhelmed the Kaohsiung fleet of the little devils in terms of fleet combat effectiveness. Whether it is air force against air force or fleet against fleet, the troops on the side of Little Devil Bay Island are at a disadvantage.

So we had to take a defensive stance.

......

"Our plan is very simple, that is, on T day, we will send troops from Pengdao to the opposite island in one fell swoop, for which we will gather more than 500 fishing boats to assist in the landing.

In terms of the air force, Rear Admiral Smith's air force and our Southeast Task Force Air Force, totaling more than 200 Mustang fighters and more than 20 B-17 bombers, were all dispatched to bomb the airfields on the other side of the strait and to find a decisive air force battle on the other hand, so as to protect our transport fleet from the interference of the air force. ”

"And your fleet and General Hutt's detachment, one in the north and the other in the south, prevent the intervention of the little devil's north and south fleets respectively. At the same time, close to the coastline, to provide artillery support for our landing. ”

After Gao Jianwu showed his plan to Major General Demoor, Major General Demore felt a little hasty.

Gao Jianwu's plan was very simple, that is, to secretly transport the troops to the vicinity of Penghu Island. With the nearly 500 fishing boats recently searched, plus more than a dozen transport ships near Allied Port and Kowloon, it was possible to transport people to the opposite shore at one time.

The entire landing zone was more than 40 kilometers long, and Gao Jianwu chose the area where the air force reconnaissance little devils had no positions and fortifications as the main landing site, and the infantry carrying mortars, heavy machine guns, and other light and heavy weapons went up first.

Next, with the support of the air force and fleet artillery, the infantry will take the little devil port position from the rear!

The battle was so simple and brutal that Major General Demore shook his head a little.

However, Gao Jianwu did not tell them that the assault team would infiltrate in advance this time, and they would go to seize some of the little devils' artillery positions, so as to provide initial artillery support for the attacking troops.

As a maturing special operations force. Song Tiecheng's assault brigade has now been in battle for a long time, and has performed well in the battles of Xiamen, Jingmen Island, and Penghu.

already has the flavor of special operations forces in Gao Jianwu's mind, compared to the current little devils, the combat effectiveness is not a little bit stronger.

Especially when they are fully armed with Type 43 assault rifles, their assault brigade of more than 1,000 people is not much worse than a brigade of little devils.

......

Gao Jianwu's plan for Major General De Moore was rough, but the plan formulated internally was not rough at all, each assault group had its own combat objectives and combat missions, and according to the information obtained by the Air Force's non-stop reconnaissance, between the two cities in this 40-kilometer zone, the little devil had three brigades and regiments of garrisons.

The main forces were concentrated on the defense of cities and ports.

Therefore, Gao Jianwu is not worried about how big the landing of the coastline in the middle is, and almost all of them can be directly driven to the beach of the coastline with the landing of fishing boats, and there is no need for the support of a deep-water port at all.

This allows Gao Jianwu to choose those areas that avoid the heavy defense of the little devils, and only the defense at the squad level or squadron level, and now there is no pressure on a large-scale attack.

The vanguard has a Browning machine gun and a Bazooka bazooka, which can make the little devil quickly become a real devil.

The infantry organized according to the main American forces, even without artillery, the task force with a full set of infantry offensive weapons is almost the pinnacle of light infantry at present.

With the same number of troops, you can press the allies with the same equipment to the ground and rub them, this is not a big talk, these descendants and quasi-descendants troops trained by Gao Jianwu are top in terms of tactics, not to mention the will to fight, and they are definitely steel troops that can fight until the last one left.

So Gao Jianwu didn't worry about the infantry fighting, for him, the most important thing was to take the port with the support of the Allied fleet and send heavy weapons such as tanks and heavy artillery!

And the most critical link in this plan lies in this: Gao Jianwu sits in the fleet and directs the naval guns to solve the defensive artillery fire of the little devil port!

If a commander is changed to command the ship's guns, although it can also solve the defense of the little devils, I am afraid that it will not be so fast in time.

The most surprising thing is to quickly solve the port's defense capability, so as to seize the port and transport heavy weapons to it.

Once the heavy weapons are in place, there will be no more surprises after Gao Jianwu goes ashore to take command.

......

On the other hand, the plan, codenamed S Day, is still being perfected day after day. As the program became more and more perfect, more and more people came into contact with him.

So in the base camp of the little devils, more and more information about this plan was received.

Although the little devil also received a transport fleet full of supplies from the Allied Gangjiu side to Xiamen, the size of this fleet was only a dozen or so small and medium-sized transport planes and a few destroyers to escort it.

In terms of size, it's a bit like a supply team.

A concerned southeastern contingent in the base camp has been going in and out of Xiamen Island for drills, but after recovering Pengjinma, more and more people are fishing in this sea area, and I am afraid that there are not hundreds of ships coming and going every day.

Although this situation is a bit abnormal, when they returned to the dock of Xiamen Island, they really brought back a lot of seafood.

So now, even Tojo Chick thinks he's a little worried? The so-called Wanwan Island strategy plan on the Allied side is actually a disguise?

Moreover, from within the Allied forces, none of the staff officers around General Mack and General Steven were involved in the planning of the so-called Wanwan Island Raider Plan.

If it is a simple plan for an urban attack, it does not require much prior planning at all. But in the face of tens of thousands of people attacking an island, a complex battle that requires the use of dozens of ships to transport on a large scale is almost impossible to carry out without a detailed plan.

Just dispatching and transporting troops would be very time-consuming, not to mention that tens of thousands of people would have to queue up to board the ship and it would take a long time to complete.

And now none of the information that needs to be prepared in advance has been received by the little devils, and in the barracks on Xiamen Island, the troops of the Southeast Task Force enter and exit as usual every day.

......

"Company commander, why do we have to sneak back at night after we go out in the morning for this training every day?" After a recruit from the 7th Attack Group of the Southeast Task Force stayed up for three days, he finally couldn't help but ask the company commander who led the team.

"This is one of our tactical training, and the most important thing for recruits is to obey orders!" The company commander said angrily.

If someone has come into contact with He Ming's Security Independent Brigade, they can recognize this company commander, who was a platoon commander not long ago. And the company under his command, except for two squads of old guerrillas, now all have a squad or a machine gun squad, and the rest of the recruits have just been transferred from the puppet army.

And in the past few days, there are more than 7,000 people who have been in and out of the barracks, and they have come out in a group during the day, waiting for the night to sneak back, and then come out again during the day, so that it seems that there are tens of thousands of people in the barracks who can't get out at all.

Not only the little devil's eyeliner intelligence officers, but also some local people in Xiamen, didn't notice these traitors and puppet soldiers who were notorious here not long ago.

Because they have changed into new military uniforms, and after doing a lot of ideological transformation work, there have been great changes in the appearance and spirit of the army alone!

At the beginning, after Zhao Dalei cleaned up the battlefield, the first thing he did was to start educating the puppet soldiers who were preparing to reform the prisoners in groups according to Gao Jianwu's deployment, and selected the most experienced group of soldiers and cadres to carry out them at the same time as a platoon, which made the ideological transformation far more than military training.

Therefore, in just over ten days, a reserve team dominated by a puppet army was transformed into the seventh attack group, and He Ming, as the commander, led this attack group as a suspect soldier of Gao Jianwu's plan, and pretended to be the main force in and out of several military camps.

The real main forces went out to sea with the fishing boats and secretly transported them to the Penghu Islands to hide.

For more than 60,000 people, it would be an extremely large team if they were gathered together, but if they were dispersed to each fishing boat, they transported thirty or fifty people at a time, and the dozen or so people were basically scattered to the islands in silence.

As far as the Southeast Task Force is concerned, Gao Jianwu's explanation to them is an exercise, so even if some people are not strict about this matter, not many people doubt that this large-scale boat exercise has anything to do with landing on Wanwan Island.

What no one even knows is that Gao Jianwu can find so many fishing boats along the coast to cooperate with this.

And to make this matter clear, it must be said clearly with the construction of Chu Yunfei and Ding Wei's two bases.

Because most of these fishing boats come from places influenced by these two bases, and some of them are He Ming, the head snake, in order to achieve tactical suddenness.

When Chu Yunfei and Ding Wei mobilized these fishing boats to come to support, they did not say anything about the T-day operation, but only told them that they needed a large number of fishing boats to carry the soldiers for cross-island exercises, and after the transportation was completed, they should still fish there.

Since the little devils have occupied Wanwan Island for many years, they have long managed this strait as their own home, and the fishermen on the mainland have long forbidden them to fish, so there are still more fish in these places, and the fishermen have also had a good harvest.

Although the large amount of fish caught in Xiamen made the local fish market in Xiamen a little unbearable, as Gao Jianwu discovered the problem and instructed to set up a special seafood company to purchase and process seafood and transport it to the base area, the fishermen's last worries were removed.

They worked in the strait, fishing while sending the trained fighters to the islands.

Except for the high-level commander of the Southeast Task Force, not many people now know that Gao Jianwu has completed the great transfer of troops through this method!

】

As for the large quantities of weapons and equipment, they have long been loaded onto the Allied transport fleet through exercises and drills without being unloaded, and the final preparations have been completed.

So when the two Allied fleets and transport fleets left the port at the same time and sailed out of the open sea in the early morning before the arrival of T, even if the intelligence officers of the little devils discovered this anomaly, they did not attract much attention, and only sent a report to report the fleet's departure from the port, and there was no follow-up.

For them, this situation is of little value at all, and no one thought that most of the fishing boats stayed around Penghu that night, and few returned to Xiamen.

And Gao Jianwu sat on General Demor's new flagship, and their target was the port near Jiayi on the other side!

"Gao, are you sure your troops can be sent to the other side with fishing boats?" Demore went to sea to know Gao Jianwu's real plan, and he was a little dumbfounded.

For him, fishing boats, which have no ability to protect themselves at all, should have nothing to do with fighting, after all, this is war, and fishing boats are vulnerable to attacks from any side.

"No problem, we have tested it, and we have transported people to Penghu, and then they set off from there and sailed to the other side, and now they have set off, and the time we arrived at the other side is almost the same, and when it is almost dawn, we will arrive!"

......
