Spy Shadow

Chen Mutu was silent, he understood what Chu Lingyun said made sense.

But Chen Mutu couldn't accept the war in his own country, but he pinned his hopes on others.

"General Chen, we ourselves also need to strive for success. You know the reasons better than anyone else as to why the battle is like this. I can't do anything about it. I'll have to look at you in the future."

Chu Lingyun sighed, while Chen Mutu held the wine glass and said nothing.

He did know why the battle was fought like this.

If corruption is widespread in the party, most people just want to make money. Ordinary soldiers, let alone military pay, don't have enough to eat. How do you expect them to work hard to fight?

It’s not just one person’s fault, it’s everyone’s fault.

Chen Mutu was unable to make changes.

"drink wine."

Chu Lingyun greeted, and Chen Mutu immediately drank down the wine in his hand.

Chen Mutu drank a lot, but Chu Lingyun didn't try to persuade him. There was no need for it. People like Chen Tumu could see the reality clearly and would not become dejected because of a temporary defeat.

Chu Lingyun didn't stay long in Chongqing this time and returned to Shanghai soon.

It's the end of September.

Tokyo, Japan, Prime Minister's Office, Xiao Zhao is listening to the introduction of the navy commander and several officers.

"Sir, this is where we are preparing for the decisive battle. Even if we lose both Yamato and Musashi, as long as we can severely damage the US aircraft carrier, we can buy us time."

Koga personally explained that he was preparing for a decisive battle with the United States.

The target is all aircraft carriers in the United States. Without aircraft carriers, American aircraft cannot be used flexibly, and the threat to the empire's homeland will be greatly reduced.

In addition, defeating the U.S. Navy will buy Japan valuable time to build more aircraft carriers and eventually drive the Americans out of the Pacific.

The plan was bold and good, and Xiao Zhao listened very carefully.

"What if it fails?"

After Koga finished speaking, Xiao Zhao suddenly asked. Koga's expression froze slightly, and then he shook his head: "Don't worry, sir, the navy will never fail."

He didn't know how many times he said this, but the result was failure again and again.

Xiao Zhao did not continue to ask. He knew very well that the navy could not afford to fail. If it failed again, the empire would be hopeless.

In recent months, the United States has frequently carried out bombings on the Japanese mainland.

The lies they had concocted before were completely exposed in bombings. Since the empire has always been victorious, why would American planes appear in their skies?

"Follow this plan, Koga-kun. This battle can only succeed, not fail. You know the consequences of failure very well."

Xiao Zhao said slowly that the navy is the last hope. No matter how many victories they win on land, it will be useless. They are an island nation and are bombed by the Americans every day. They even land on the mainland. What awaits them is disaster.

"Don't worry, sir. We will go all out and win this battle."

Koga is very confident. They have conducted many simulations and paid a certain price. They hope to severely damage the US Navy and alleviate the situation in the empire.

In mid-October, Japan's frequent naval maneuvers attracted the attention of the Americans.

Through multiple intelligence analyses, they finally determined that the place where Japan wanted to take action was Leyte Gulf.

The United States is not afraid of Japan coming out. On the contrary, it is afraid that they will shrink back. As long as they come out, there is hope that their combined fleet will be completely wiped out.

Japan without its navy would become a tiger without claws.

Although they still have a considerable amount of land troops, the tiger without its claws or even with its legs broken and unable to run will be at their mercy.

Chongqing, Central Unification Headquarters.

"What are you doing to eat? Why were you discovered again? Didn't you tell them to hibernate? Who activated them?"

Old ghost Xu was furious. He sent eight spies to Yanzhou. Two of them were accidentally discovered before, but two more were found this time.

Half of it was lost before it was officially launched, and Old Ghost Xu was getting angry at a group of people.

Bao Shengqun sat at the top. He was the director of the Intelligence Department. Apart from Xu Laogui, the second person in the Central Command, no one had a higher rank than him.

"Shengqun, what's going on?"

Old ghost Xu looked at Bao Shengqun. Bao Shengqun was happy in his heart, but with a sad look on his face: "Bureau chief, Xi'an Station found an undercover suspected red party member, but he couldn't confirm his identity, so he wanted to verify it through our inside line. You promised."

This time the blame is really not on him. Although the personnel who lurked in the past have been known to the Red Party for a long time, it was not him who initiated it this time.

He even persuaded Old Ghost Xu.

"I promised to let you verify, and I didn't ask you to activate the dormant person."

Old ghost Xu glared fiercely. Bao Shengqun immediately lowered his head and stopped talking. The other people around him all lowered their heads.

How can we verify if we don’t allow people to activate it?

Ask about the air?

Old ghost Xu was obviously too angry, and Bao Shengqun was a little unjust this time.

"Meeting dismissed."

Old ghost Xu knew he was wrong and did not continue to scold him. After the meeting, Bao Shengqun returned to the office. After a while, he heard that old ghost Xu had left the bureau.

Bao Shengqun knows best where Old Ghost Xu will go.

He went to receive his smuggled goods again, and it was like this. Old Ghost Xu was still focused on making money, and he was hopeless.

Bao Shengqun already has a lot of dirty information about Mr. Xu.

Now is not the time. When the critical moment comes, he will expose these dirty facts, leaving Old Ghost Xu with no possibility of turning over.

As for himself, he didn't care at all.

As soon as Old Ghost Xu fell, he immediately resigned from the position of Director of Intelligence. As long as he gave way, no matter who became the new Deputy Director, they would not attack him.

It's true that his background is Old Ghost Xu, but Er Chen is also related to him.

As long as he is not greedy for power, no one can do anything to him.

It has been his long-cherished wish to bring down Old Ghost Xu. He will not be anxious, nor will he allow his previous efforts to be wasted.

He has been waiting for eight years for revenge and does not care about this time.

"Director."

Not long after returning to the office, his subordinates suddenly came to Bao Shengqun's office.

"What's up?"

Bao Shengqun asked calmly, and his subordinates immediately whispered: "We were watching Zeng Jiayan's people and found a suspicious person."

"What kind of suspicious method?" Bao Shengqun asked immediately.

"He once went to Zengjiayan with makeup, but we didn't notice him before. Our people noticed him and felt that he was a bit familiar. We looked through photos for a long time and found what he looked like after makeup."

The subordinates quickly said that Zhongtong had been keeping an eye on the red party's obvious position, and Bao Shengqun was responsible for this matter.

He arranged for more than a dozen people there, and he had to take pictures every day of all the people passing by.

Unexpectedly, these people actually found clues through the photos.

"Have you been watched? Have your identities been verified?"

Bao Shengqun asked casually, since his subordinates came to report, there is a high possibility that this person has a problem.

"Keep an eye on him, his identity is being verified."

"Very good, keep an eye on him."

Bao Shengqun replied that it would be easy to handle if he had an identity. He was just staring at people right now, so there was no need to worry. He would tell the matter to the Red Party in two days. If he was really from the Red Party, no one would be able to gain anything in the future.

There is no need to rush the report.

We have just found the person, and we will report it now. There are only so many people with knowledge, and it is easy to put yourself in danger. We will talk about it in two days.

He is the director of the intelligence department, and it is easy for his subordinates to frame him during the tracking process. For example, if someone suddenly leaves for a while due to something, then once the red party runs away, the person who left becomes the biggest suspect.

He can trick Old Ghost Xu, but he will not put himself in danger.

Bao Shengqun has always been smart and is very good at doing this.

Shanghai, inside the literary agency.

Takemoto looked at everyone with a smile. The war is not over yet, but a group of club members have been promoted.

During this war, the base camp took a lot of food from Ishihara Trading Company, and they would not repay the money. In addition, many members of the literary society had made military exploits, and by the way, they were promoted.

Not one person was promoted, but dozens of people.

Sixteen of them were promoted to generals, and now the number of generals in the literary society exceeds eighty. From an organizational point of view, their literary society is the well-deserved number one in the empire.

"Thank you Ishihara-kun."

Many people in the literary agency expressed their heartfelt thanks. Without Ishihara Hiroshi, it would have been difficult for them to obtain their current position or level. It was Ishihara Hiroshi who helped them and gave them a shortcut.

Chu Lingyun responded with a smile.

After this promotion, the literary society will no longer accept people. There is no need to recruit people anymore, and the historical mission of the literary society is about to be completed.

Next, the biggest role of the literary agency is information.

"Boss, Gangcun has sent a lot of antiques. I took a look and they are all good things."

Back at the trading house, Fang Shiyi immediately came over to report.

The last time he was in Wuhan, Gangcun gave Chu Lingyun dozens of antiques. Chu Lingyun accepted them all, but still did not let go.

At Chu Lingyun's suggestion, Gangcun continued to collect antiques.

Many of them fell into the hands of Japanese officers, and Gangcun did it for him. Chu Lingyun just saved himself from having to do it himself and asked Gangcun to help him collect these treasures.

In this way, Gangcun sent more than two hundred antiques of various kinds, including some national treasures.

If these national treasures fall into his hands, they will never be taken away by the Japanese again.

He will take good care of it next.

In fact, Chu Lingyun has no special interest in antiques. He simply doesn't want these treasures to wander outside. Putting them in his hands can at least ensure that they all stay in the country.

"This kid is anxious. He probably sees that Tian Junliu is leaving."

Chu Lingyun smiled. Tian Junliu really wanted to quit. The war is not over yet. When the war is over, he will retire with success.

Gangcun is definitely qualified to take over Tian Junliu's position.

What he fears most is the opposition of Ishihara Hiroshi. If Ishihara Hiroshi does not object, he will have great hope of taking over.

"Boss, the things have been collected."

Fang Shiyi replied with a smile, and Chu Lingyun nodded indifferently: "We must take it, these are our treasures, we can't let them take them away."

Chu Lingyun accepted all the things sent by Gangcun.

If he wants to be the commander-in-chief, let him be. What's more, in the military in various parts of China, people from the literary and social circles occupy the majority of positions.

Without the cooperation of literary societies, Gangcun would not be able to accomplish anything.

He does not have the same prestige as Tian Junliu.

"yes."

Alchemist Yi smiled and said that these antiques that the Japanese had worked so hard to search for finally returned to their hands.

He knows best that Ishihara Hiroshi now has many national treasures in his hands. These have never been sent to Japan and will never be sent there in the future. These treasures must stay in China forever.

In Yanzhou, Ke Gong received a telegram from the little boy.

When he saw the content, he was suddenly shocked. Bao Shengqun was indeed targeting their comrades, and his identity was very important.

Bao Shengqun has already responded, so Mr. Ke can safely inform him.

There is no need to send someone specially. It just so happens that this comrade is going to Zengjiayan again. After arriving there, other comrades will tell him that his identity has been exposed and evacuate immediately.

"Run away? What happened?"

In Xu Laogui's office, he was glaring at Bao Shengqun. For Xu Laogui, it has been very difficult recently. Fortunately, his smuggling business is good, especially tobacco. His tobacco is of good quality and cheap, and is very popular in the market.

He made a lot of money using tobacco.

Dai Yunong smuggled just as much, but his tobacco business couldn't compare with his own.

Finally, there was something that could put Dai Yunong down.

"Secretary, I will find out what happened."

Bao Shengqun lowered his head. He knew what happened best. He ran away after he notified him.

It seems that he is indeed a member of the Red Party and has a certain identity.

It's best this way. Old Ghost Xu is focused on making money. He really thinks that others don't know what he's doing, and there will be no progress in his job. It won't be long before he is finished.

"Check, check it out immediately, we will never tolerate it."

Old ghost Xu said coldly that he still trusted Bao Shengqun and had no doubts.

This time the person ran away a few days after he was discovered. It was very likely that something happened in the process.

Bao Shengqun investigated very diligently.

It was soon discovered that someone had left without permission during the surveillance period. According to his own confession, he was a cigarette addict and went to smoke a big cigarette.

The Central Government also prohibits smoking of tobacco.

It's just that there are policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom. Old ghost Xu just doesn't care, smuggling and selling cigarettes himself, and it's impossible for all his people to obey the law.

The arrested team member kept shouting that he was wronged, and the big cigarette he smoked was sold by Mr. Xu.

When Old Ghost Xu found out, he was furious and immediately ordered him to be shot.

In the office, Bao Shengqun smiled and added another piece of dirty information about Mr. Xu. In fact, there was more than one member of the Central Committee who smoked cigarettes, and many people were smoking.

And most of them smoked the big cigarettes sold by Xu Laogui.

As a director, smuggling cigarettes and allowing his subordinates to smoke cigarettes is a serious crime.

Write it down first, and then give Old Ghost Xu a fatal blow later.

Time passes slowly, late October.

Off the coast of the Philippines, American and Japanese warships finally faced each other. The Yukikaze still participated in the battle this time, but no one wanted to be with them. In the end, Kurita did not believe in evil and asked for the Yukikaze by name.

Kurita is the commander of the Second Fleet. The Second Fleet is powerful, including Yamato and Musashi. There are many heavy cruisers in the fleet. Their combat purpose is to block American warships. If the American aircraft carrier can be found, they will Its sinking is the best.

I have to say that people these days are better off believing in evil.

On October 24, the Kurita fleet was targeted by American aircraft carriers, and the Musashi, known as one of Japan's largest battleships, sank.

Immediately after the three heavy cruisers sank, the Yukikaze responsible for the escort was once again miraculously unscathed.

They once again began the tiring work of salvaging the drowned crew.

Unfavorable news of the naval battle reached Japan, and Prime Minister Xiao Zhao's hands and feet were cold.

This battle was not only a defeat for the Imperial Navy, but also the combined fleet was completely crippled and no longer had the ability to compete with the U.S. Navy.

Next, the entire South China Sea and the Sea of ​​Japan will become the back garden of the US Navy.

"His Majesty."

When Xiao Zhao came to the palace, Yu Ren already knew the result of the naval battle. The navy had hardly given them any good news in the past two years, and this time the news was even worse.

"Tell me, if the navy fails, who will stop the United States?"

Yu Ren looked unhappy. If Xiao Zhao had not just taken office and it was not the right time to change the prime minister, he would have wanted to change another prime minister.

Any other dog would be better than them.

At least the Imperial United Fleet will not be destroyed so quickly.

"Your Majesty, although the navy failed, this battle was not without its highlights."

Xiao Zhao hurriedly replied. He said seriously that the highlight was the performance of the aviation force this time.

Japan has lost a large number of maritime aviation, and the quality of its pilots is now far inferior to that of before.

Onishi, the aviation commander of Japan's First Fleet, used a surprising idea for this battle.

He organized a death squad composed of hot-blooded men in the army.

The leader of the team was Captain Guan Xing. Daxi specially approached Guan Xing and asked him if he was willing to be loyal to His Majesty.

In fact, Guan Xing had just gotten married and was only twenty-three years old. Facing the commander's question, Guan Xing nodded.

In this way, twenty-four Japanese pilots who had been brainwashed by Bushido formed a death squad. When they set off for the battle, they knew that there would be no return this time.

They want to fly planes, carry bombs, rush to American warships, and die together with the enemy.

The idea of ​​Onishi actually came from the crazy behavior of Chinese pilots when the war first started.

However, the Chinese pilots at that time had no way to leave, so they rammed their warships. In this battle, Onishi simply let his own people die and used human lives to attack the American warships.

Compared with aircraft, warships are more expensive and take longer to build.

As for pilots, Onishi didn't care at all. It was difficult to train good pilots, but it was much easier to train pilots who could fly planes and ram warships.

"These twenty-four people are all imperial warriors."

After Xiao Zhao finished speaking, Yu Ren sighed, they don't lack such soldiers, but it's a pity that if the empire can defeat the United States, why let them fight in this way.

"Your Majesty, they are indeed warriors. Commander Onishi intends to organize a team dedicated to dying with the enemy. If American warships dare to come, thousands of such aircraft in the sky will definitely scare them away. Even if they come, like this Multiple aircraft can sink multiple of their warships.”

Xiao Zhao said quickly, it was a pure suicide attack, but it was in line with the Japanese character.

They all have a kind of fanaticism in their bones.

"Okay, let them form it as soon as possible."

Yu Ren's tone softened a lot. Although this method was a helpless move, he didn't have any good ideas at the moment.

If the Americans really came to attack, he might not even be able to keep his position as emperor.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Yu Ren agreed, the responsibility for the naval failure could be alleviated a little. Yu Ren did not continue to blame him, but Xiao Zhao, who returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, was still frowning.

No one knows how effective suicide attacks can be.

At the moment, Japan is in a mess. Although Tian Junliu has opened up the communication line with China, the navy has failed. There is endless debate about whether to transport troops from China to the Nanyang base camp.

No matter how many armies there are, without the navy, they can only hold on to their original position.

Resources from Nanyang cannot be transported to China.

Nanyang does not have that much industrial base, and Japan also intends to prevent Nanyang from developing. Heavy industry is basically in Japan, and now it is faced with the dilemma of being unable to transport various raw materials to the country.

Xiao Zhao secretly made up his mind that no matter how difficult it was, luck would still come.

There is also a super aircraft carrier in the shipyard. As long as the empire can survive the current difficulties and the navy regains its strength, it will still have the capital to fight the US military.

The empire also has a large territory, including China and Southeast Asian countries. These places are rich in resources and also have oil, which they are most lacking.

Besides, it’s not like the empire has never experienced difficulties. No matter how difficult it is, they have overcome it. Xiao Zhao believes that they will be the ones who win in the end.

In Shanghai, Chu Lingyun received the results of the naval battle.

Including their death squads.

The infamous kamikaze team still appeared on the stage, and Japan was forced to use suicide attacks. They could count down the countdown to failure.

Time came to November, and Gangcun came to Shanghai again.

"Lord Ishihara, I hope you can support me. Don't worry, the interests of Ishihara Trading Company and Literary Society will not be infringed upon."

Gangcun came to see Chu Lingyun to formally seek support.

Tian Junliu will return home soon. Now the war is only at its end, and all the strategic goals Tian Junliu wanted have been achieved.

However, the cost was also high. Japan suffered heavy losses this time and was unable to launch another large-scale battle.

Even if we cling to our current territory, we will still be unable to do so.

The biggest advantage for them is that the lines of communication have been opened. If something happens in Nanyang, the Chinese army can go there at any time to provide support.

"General Gangcun, thank you very much for your gift."

Chu Lingyun smiled, and Gangcun was slightly startled, understanding that Ishihara Hiroshi had relented, but those gifts alone were not enough.

"Lord Ishihara, I think the literary club's ten division leaders are too few. We can have a few more, at least fifteen."

Gangcun offered his conditions, and Chu Lingyun smiled even brighter.

"No, ten is enough. If there are more, His Majesty will be unhappy. We are all serving His Majesty."

Why does the Literary Society need so many division leaders? It's already November, and in less than ten months, Japan will be completely finished.

No amount of division commanders means anything.

With Ishihara Hiroshi's identity, he will definitely be liquidated after Japan surrenders.

Even if he does not have any official position, just controlling so many Japanese military officers is a serious crime.

"Sir, from now on Shanghai will be entirely up to you, and I promise not to let anyone interfere."

Gangcun once again made conditions. In order to get the upper hand, he really did everything.

"General Gangcun, I like your gift very much. I know there are many people who have the same hobbies as me, but good things should be in the hands of the strongest. After you take over, I hope you can give them a good beating."

Chu Lingyun relented. The conditions offered by Gangcun meant nothing to Chu Lingyun.

That's not what he wants.

Now Gangcun's biggest role is to help him collect antiques and keep these treasures in China as much as possible.

Gangcun's rise to power is not harmful to Chu Lingyun.

First of all, he is not Tian Junliu, and he cannot achieve the prestige of Tian Junliu.

Neither the headquarters nor the legions will completely convince him, and even Chu Lingyun's influence is stronger than his. If Gangcun takes it seriously and does what he says, nothing will happen.

If he really has other ideas, Chu Lingyun can deal with him at any time.

"Thank you, sir. Don't worry, I will give you all the antiques in their hands. I agree with your words. Good things should be in the hands of the strongest."

Gangcun was overjoyed and bowed his head in response.

It turns out that we still need antiques. Didn't you tell me earlier? It's simple. After he takes over, he can just search for more for Toru Ishihara.

Problems that money can solve are never problems.

In late November, the Snow Wind once again demonstrated its auspicious power.

The battleship Kongo escorted by him was ambushed by an American submarine and sank on the spot, leaving the Yukikaze intact again.

After this time, everyone in the navy was almost in a state of disbelief when talking about Xuefeng, and no one was willing to perform missions with the Xuefeng.

The next day, Tian Junliu resigned as commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, and Gangcun officially took over.

The ambitious Gangcun soon discovered something was wrong.

It is true that he is the commander-in-chief, but now the dispatched troops are full of proud soldiers. They have just won the war and are not so convinced by the new commander-in-chief.

Gangcun didn't care. The new official's first priority after taking office was Chongqing.

"Ishihara-kun, Gangcun is too arrogant. He wants to conquer Chongqing in one fell swoop. That is the capital of the Chinese. There are so many troops stationed there that we simply cannot defeat them with our current troops."

In the literary club, Yamashita and others were all there, complaining to Chu Lingyun.

Gangcun came up with a Zhijiang battle plan and reported it to the base camp. However, there were not many supporters in the base camp. Gangcun had just taken office and they could understand what he wanted to do, but this plan was too risky and too difficult.

Chongqing is not the Central Plains, it is all mountainous.

It is difficult to transport Japan's heavy weapons across. Even if they are forced to pass through, they will suffer heavy losses, but there are still people who support Gangcun in the base camp.

The base camp did not make a clear position on this plan, leaving Gangcun to decide on his own.

"He wants to do something, which is a good thing. You should pay attention to it. The most important thing is to have the soldiers in your own hands."

Chu Lingyun smiled and shook his head. He was openly supporting the disobedience of the members of the literary society.

Gangcun told him this plan, but Chu Lingyun did not agree.

"clear."

Yamashita and others' eyes lit up, and soon Ishihara Hiroshi's attitude spread among the literary club members.

With Toru Ishihara's public statement, other members knew what to do.

Gangcun wanted to mobilize soldiers, but these people delayed for various reasons, or simply refused to obey orders.

The Japanese tradition of defeating superiors is once again reflected.

In Nanjing, Gang Cun sat in his office, looking at the map in silence.

What he is looking at is Chongqing.

Capturing Chongqing would break down Chinese resistance and even force the Chinese to surrender, completely occupying the country.

This would free up the empire to focus on dealing with the Americans.

It's a pity that no one supports him.

Gangcun lamented that it was not easy to do something. Not only the people from the literary club were opposed, but also the people from other divisions were also opposed.

Chongqing is not that easy to fight, and you have to pay for it with human lives.

Especially the mountain road is difficult to walk, and their heavy weapons cannot keep up. No one knows whether they can capture Chongqing, but they will definitely suffer heavy losses.

The war that had just ended had caused them considerable losses.

Now no one wants to fight such a big battle with no hope but destined to suffer heavy losses.

Now with Hiroshi Ishihara in front, everyone is happy to obey orders. Except for Gangcun, who can direct his direct lineage, no one in other departments follows his orders.

This plan could only fail.

Tokyo, port.

Xiao Zhaozhen is visiting a huge aircraft carrier, the Shinano.

This aircraft carrier was built five years ago. It is based on the Yamato battleship and has the foundation of the Yamato battleship. This aircraft carrier is very large, with a displacement of more than 60,000 tons, and a full load displacement of more than 70,000 tons.

The Shinano was launched last month and is preparing to go out for sea trials today.

The Shinano is so big, but there are not many carrier-based aircraft. This is related to Japan's design. Initially, there were only more than 60 carrier-based aircraft, but no matter how few, it is still a super aircraft carrier. Japan, which has no aircraft carriers, urgently needs this. warships were put in line to help them fight.

"Koga-kun, who do you plan to let escort you?"

Xiao Zhao smiled and asked Koga next to him. The aircraft carrier for sea trials also needs protection, and escort warships are indispensable.

"How about the Yukikaze?"

Koga smiled softly, and Xiao Zhao's expression suddenly froze.

He had heard of Yukikaze's name many times, but he didn't expect that Koga would let Yukikaze escort this super aircraft carrier.

"This sea trial was in offshore waters. The Yukikaze fought bravely. The previous situation was purely coincidental and not their responsibility. Let Yukikaze escort this time. Let others see that nothing will happen to the Yukikaze escort."

Koga explained that Yukikaze's name is now completely stinky in the navy.

However, there are not many warships left in the Japanese Navy. After all, the Yukikaze has combat effectiveness, and the gap between it and other warships cannot be too deep.

The aircraft carrier that escorts the sea trials is just right.

"also."

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Zhao nodded. Since we were in offshore waters, nothing would happen if we were careful. What's more, this was a sea trial, not a battle.

No matter how evil Xuefeng is, he can't sink the warships undergoing sea trials, right?

Not to mention, it is such a big aircraft carrier.

Unbeknownst to him or Koga, they would soon regret their decision for the rest of their lives.

Twenty hours later, the Admiralty suddenly received an urgent message from the Yukikaze.

During the sea trials of the Shinano super aircraft carrier, it was ambushed by a U.S. submarine. The upper model of the Shinano was hit by four torpedoes and was slowly sinking.

Koga's hands and feet suddenly became cold.

Calculating the time, their aircraft carrier sea trials only lasted 17 hours, so it sank?

Is the Yukikaze so evil that it can't even withstand the sea trial of an aircraft carrier?

Koga regretted, really regretted, that he should not have sent the Yukikaze for escort. If it had been replaced by another warship, perhaps such a thing would not have happened.

The Shinano was so big that it was targeted by American submarines.

As for the Yukikaze, it was automatically ignored.

A little guy like the Yukikaze with over 2,000 tons is nothing compared to a 60,000-ton super aircraft carrier.

The U.S. submarine took decisive action and sent the super aircraft carrier undergoing sea trials to the bottom of the sea with only four torpedoes.

The Japanese navy worked hard for several years and spent huge sums of money to build a super aircraft carrier. It did not participate in a single battle, and it just sat on the bottom of the sea.

It set a record.

The record for the fastest aircraft carrier to be sunk. This record is unprecedented, and it is estimated that there will be few others in the future.

It was sunk within 17 hours. I'm afraid no one would believe it.

"Call them back to determine if the Shinano really sank."

Koga ordered. He couldn't believe that the super aircraft carrier just built by the empire sank like this after all the effort put in by the empire.

No matter how many battles you have participated in, you must at least have the experience of participating in a war.

It was sunk during sea trials. This was more than 60,000 tons of steel.

Not to mention the money spent, if these resources alone were used to build destroyers, dozens of destroyers could be built.

The destroyer Yukikaze was not only escorted, but also other warships.

"yes."

The men hurriedly went to call back. At this time, the Shinano was still on the water, and the US submarine that attacked them had long disappeared.

In fact, they had discovered the American submarine a few hours ago, and the Shinano immediately escaped and ran some distance away.

The Yukikaze served as a frigate and followed.

Unfortunately, the Shinano suffered a malfunction during the sea trial, and its speed dropped from twenty-five knots to fifteen knots. The American submarine Archer, which had been chasing them, asked the U.S. military headquarters for help, but there were no other submarines nearby.

The Archerfish can only pursue it alone.

In the early morning, the Archerfish finally discovered the Shinano again.

At this time, the commander on board the Shinano thought he had entered an ambush by a US submarine and was in a hurry to get back. He did not know that there was only one US submarine.

By some mistake, the Shinano ran right in front of the submarine Archer.

The Americans did not waste such a good opportunity. They prepared torpedoes and launched them as soon as the Shinano approached.

Archerfish launched six torpedoes, four of which hit Shinano accurately.

At that time, the captain of Yukikaze was stunned. Where did this submarine come from?

The most egregious thing was the Shinano, which was still escaping. Unfortunately, this aircraft carrier was built too hastily and crudely, and it began to tilt after a while.

Yukikaze immediately sent a message to report the situation, and cooperated with other destroyers to rescue the fallen soldiers.

The destroyer Isokaze received a telegram from the Navy Command and immediately reported the detailed situation.

Naval Command received a reply from the Isokaze.

The news is true, the Shinano is sinking, and both the Yukikaze and Isokaze are rescuing people, with the Yukikaze saving more people.

The Shinano called back at the same time. The captain had issued an order to abandon the ship, and the Shinano was definitely not saved.

Koga didn't know what to say.

The Shinano is really gone, but the Yukikaze is still intact.

The Snow Wind was not in front of him at this time. If it were, he might have wanted to sink the Snow Wind.

You can't be so evil, right?

News of the sinking of the Shinano super aircraft carrier spread quickly, and the Navy was in an uproar.

No matter where the soldiers of Yukikaze went, they were pointed at.

The Yukikaze was very aggrieved by this, and they were not the only ones escorting it, but there were also several destroyers. Why did they all blame them?

There were other warships escorting the ship, but they never thought about their proud record. This time they defeated the Shinano. It is estimated that no one will dare to fight with the Yukikaze in the future.

Being with the Yukikaze will not end well, this is the consensus of the navy.

In Shanghai, Chu Lingyun also received the news and laughed happily.

The Yukikaze was indeed auspicious. The super aircraft carrier Shinano was defeated by it in less than a day of sea trials. Japan's first super aircraft carrier was lost.

Chu Lingyun knew better.

The Archerfish accepted the commendation after returning. The captain said happily that at first he thought the Shinano was a volcanic island, but later he discovered that it was Japan's latest aircraft carrier.

Unfortunately, he had no companions. After being hit, he ran away in a hurry and did not have time to check the results of the battle.

But the final result was good. They sank Japan's latest super aircraft carrier.

An aircraft carrier of more than 60,000 tons.

This achievement is enough for all the officers and soldiers of the Archer Fish to play for a lifetime.

The Allies were publicizing the sinking of the Shinano all over the country, while Japan was in despair. They would not be able to build another Shinano in a short period of time.

Xiao Zhao was called over by Yu Ren and scolded severely.

After that, Xiao Zhao scolded Koga again.

Koga wanted to scold the Yukikaze for venting his anger, but when he thought about it carefully, the Yukikaze made no mistake. The Shinano made a big mistake from the beginning. After discovering the American submarine, he should have thought about sinking it as soon as possible instead of escaping.

The Yukikaze's fault wasn't his, he couldn't scold them.

In the end, the responsibility for the sinking of the Shinano rests entirely with Koga. Anyway, he has more than one blame to bear, and it doesn't matter if he bears a few more.

The worst news for Japan was not the Shinano, but their ally Germany.

After Paris was recaptured by the Allies, Germany had been on the defensive, with no hope of turning around.

How long Germany can last, no one knows.

Germany has contained a large number of troops in Europe, including tens of millions of Russian troops. Once Germany is defeated and they are freed up, the Japanese will not be able to win even if they have several times more troops.

Anyone who is smart can see that Germany and Japan do not have much time left.

In December, the United States continued bombing the Japanese mainland.

At the same time, the US military has begun planning to attack Okinawa and other places, and finally the Japanese mainland.

Chongqing was full of joy, and Chen Mutu was very emotional after receiving the news.

He did not expect that Chu Lingyun's strategic vision was so high. Everything was exactly as Chu Lingyun said. China could not defeat Japan, but the United States could.

If the United States can defeat Japan, it will also be a victory for China.

Everyone finally saw the dawn of victory.

"Trash, idiot."

In Central Commander Xu Laogui's office, his angry voice could be heard outside.

Just yesterday, a high-level cadre of the Central Unification suddenly defected and fled to the Japanese. He also provided some information about the latent personnel of the Central Unification, causing the Central Unification to lose more than a hundred people.

"Captain, calm down."

Bao Shengqun hurriedly advised that the people who defected this time simply rebelled because they were suspected by Mr. Xu.

It's not that he is famous, but that he is enriching himself in Xu Laogui's business.

He is the person close to Old Ghost Xu and knows many secrets of Old Ghost Xu.

His defection was a huge blow to Mr. Xu.

It is said that the old man was alarmed, and the military commander Boss Dai took the opportunity to complain. Maybe Boss Dai is investigating them now.

"Calm down your anger. How to calm down your anger?"

Old Ghost Xu threw a lot of things angrily. He was not angry, but a little scared.

This person knew that he had done a lot of dirty things, and if they were provided to the military commander, he would be able to live without the money.

"I will immediately arrange for people to go to Nanjing to punish him."

"Immediately, go now. No matter who it is, punish the traitor and reward him with a reward of 10,000 yuan. He will be promoted to three levels in a row."

Old Ghost Xu immediately offered a huge reward. He would not be able to sleep well for as long as this traitor lived. He must be punished as soon as possible.

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and this time Old Ghost Xu also took the risk.

Thanks for the 100 starting coin reward on the way to make a profit.
