Escaping his pursuers, Otto fled to the seashore and boarded a merchant ship bound for Algeria with the money he had scavenged from his cannibal family.

He doesn't have to choose now, as long as there is a boat to go to sea, he has to sit, and leaving Morocco is his first choice.

On the other side, Zhou Yu, who led the representatives of the Allied countries, worked out a series of counteroffensive plans in Lashio, Burma.

However, before formulating the plan, Zhou Wei, as the commander-in-chief of the allied forces, understood some of the strategic plans previously deployed by the allies.

In the Pacific theater, since the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the Union army has mobilized 600,000 soldiers into battle.

However, it is a pity that the Union army did not take advantage of all the battlefields in the early days of the Pacific War, and it can even be said that it suffered a big loss.

The one who really won back a city for the Federation turned out to be Wake Island, which had not changed its name before.

Unlike the Marianas, the Caroline Islands, and the Solomon Islands, Wake Island is a solitary island, and the nearest island is Guam, which is more than 900 kilometers to the west, and Hawaii to the east, which is more than 3,700 kilometers away.

It was discovered in 1796 by the Englishman William Wick, who named the island after himself.

However, others don't pay attention to this small island, it doesn't mean that Zhou Yu doesn't pay attention to it, just when Roosevelt was just inaugurated as president, Zhou Yu was about to get the development right of Wake Island, sent people to build an airport on it, expanded the port, and stationed a mercenary team.

As a "person who has come over", Zhou Yu certainly knows the importance of Wake Island, which can not only be used as a base for operating patrol aircraft, monitoring the situation in the Marshall Islands nearby, but also convenient for covering the Chamber of Commerce's ships.

Once Wake Island fell into Japanese hands, it would become a major obstacle to Allied raids on the Marshall Islands, Ogasawara Islands, and Saipan, and would also pose a serious obstacle to other covert Allied operations.

After the full-scale outbreak of the war, in order to make the counteroffensive smoother in the future, Zhou Yu sent Tang Dong and Yu Guilai, who had already commanded him, to the island to prevent a sneak attack by the Japanese army.

Just before Zhou Yu was about to leave for Casablanca, he sent a group of reinforcements to Wake Island, including a newly launched aircraft carrier "The First Emperor" led by Lao Zhang.

"Xiaodong, this is the latest type of radio communication equipment that Mr. Zhou asked me to bring, and he also said that we should pay attention to the movements of the Japanese army recently, and they are very likely to launch a surprise attack on Wake Island."

Lao Zhang ordered people to move supplies and equipment to the island base, and at the same time took out cigarette rolls and distributed them to Tang Dong and Yu Guilai.

"Hahaha~ Lao Zhang, it's just right that the little devil is here, Guilai and I are almost bored to death~! There is not even a movie theater here, and every day is training except training. ”

Tang Dong has tanned a lot during his time on the island, and the cream boy who was as handsome as a movie star has transformed into a tough guy full of male hormones.

"Cinema? Unless the little devil has completely surrendered, how can we have time to watch movies? I've brought you some entertainment magazines, and the covers of your movie star girlfriend have taken them. ”

Lao Zhang said mysteriously, took out an entertainment magazine, and shook it in front of Tang Dong.

"Huh? Lao Zhang, you can know my hobby~! Come and show me if my little one is hungry and thin! ”

Yu Guilai came up to gossip, and saw that the cover of the magazine was Tang Dong's little girlfriend, a blonde and blue-eyed beauty, but she took this cover......

Tang Dong was stunned for a moment when he saw the cover of the magazine taken by his girlfriend, then pushed Yu Guilai away and said angrily: "Damn, how dare you take such a photo behind my back?" To let me know who filmed her, I must have gouged out that kid's eye! ”

"Okay, you've also been in the entertainment industry, even if this kind of woman is playing, people aren't ready to do anything with you, seriously, hurry up and let people install the radio equipment, you can't delay the business."

Tang Dong smiled, stuffed the entertainment magazine into his arms, and walked into his combat command room with his arms around Lao Zhang's shoulders.

In the room, specially trained radio communicators are busy installing the equipment and making the necessary commissioning.

"Look, how is my command room? Except for no movies, no girls, everything else is available. ”

Lao Zhang looked at the spacious, bright, and emotionally decorated combat command room, and for a moment, he thought he was in a café in Manhattan.

"You, you, it's really like Mr. Zhou's evaluation, realistic hedonist, hehe~"

Tang Dong took Lao Zhang to visit before and after, but was suddenly interrupted by the footsteps of the orderly.

"Commander! Newly installed radio equipment intercepted an encrypted message that the Japanese had raided Oahu! ”

"What?"

Tang Dong's face sank, and he looked at Lao Zhang and said: "This news is really timely, once the Japanese army captures Oahu Island, the next target should be our Wake Island...... Come! Go and call the commanders of all the branches on the island, and the whole island will be in combat readiness! ”

"Yes!"

After a while, the middle-level officers on the island gathered, everyone had a high fighting spirit on their faces, it seemed that everyone was on this island until they panicked, and it was better to let them fight with the little devils here.

Under Tang Dong's dispatch, the entire Wake Island was put into operation.

Their planes quickly took off and began to search and reconnoiter in three directions: north, south, and southeast.

All the soldiers were in place, trucks were plying the newly built roads, carrying boxes and boxes of ammunition, and even the natives were given a rifle for self-defense.

After intercepting the news of the Japanese army, it took only two hours for Wake Island to make all preparations.

At noon, the soldiers finished their lunch lying in the trenches, and everyone knew that their first test was approaching.

On the morning of the second day when Wake Island was ready for battle, 36 Type 96 land attack planes of the Chitose Air Force of the 24th Air Force under the Japanese Fourth Fleet, under the leadership of Lieutenant Hideo Matsuda, took off from Roy Island, 1,100 kilometers south of Wake Island, and pounced in three waves.

Just after the Japanese planes arrived over Wake Island, their pilots were shocked to find that Wake Island, which was still covered with green vegetation, suddenly faded to green, revealing the muzzle of a black hole.

As many as 180 hungry and thirsty cannons were aimed at the 36 Japanese planes and played their "welcome music."

The success of Pearl Harbor and the successive victories in the oceans gave the Japanese the illusion that they had won the Pacific War.

Amid the roaring artillery fire, 19 of the 36 bombers of the first batch of Japanese troops to Wake Island were bombed into the sea on the spot, and the rest were either wounded and smoked or fled in the desert.

The Japanese pilots were stunned by this sudden baptism of fire, and even if they wanted to launch a Banzai charge, they could not do it.

"Lao Zhang, we have to fight a time difference with the Japanese army, and we have to trouble you to go with your aircraft carrier and give a big gift to the little devil."
