He not only needs to fight the Japanese Air Force, but also shoulder the task of training those pilots.
At this time, over the Shanxi area, Japanese reconnaissance planes basically came every once in a while.
Although Xia Yang has an air defense system, its coverage area was originally only the mountains around the ancient city of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty. The area that needs to be responsible now has become the entire Shanxi and Chahar region.
Therefore, the strength of the original anti-aircraft missile battalion has become somewhat insufficient. Even if it is expanded into an air defense missile regiment, there is still no way to perfect the air defense in Shanxi and Chahar areas.
And when they use anti-aircraft missiles for regional air defense, they appear to be very passive. Xia Yang wanted to take the initiative and let his fighter jets directly attack Japanese airports and even Japanese military bases.
When Xia Yang was working hard to establish the air force and expand other units at the same time. At this time, it was in a hidden port in the Japanese Hokkaido area.
The Japanese fleet that attacked Pearl Harbor has begun to leave the port in batches and sail towards the vast Pacific Ocean.
These fleets did not move together, but set up a coordinate point for gathering.
This is done to reduce the number of targets and prevent them from becoming the target of US reconnaissance aircraft.
After completing the assembly at the coordinate point, the fleet will approach Pearl Harbor and sneak attack the main force of the US Pacific Fleet stationed there.
Yamamoto Isoroku and Nagumo Chuichi were standing in the command room of the aircraft carrier flagship "Izumo", staring at the chart.
In the center of the chart, a circle was marked in eye-catching red. Inside the red circle is Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, USA.
"Our fleet has been divided into five groups. Then it will arrive at the scheduled coordinate point around December 4th.
This time, we have assembled six aircraft carriers, which are basically the main force of our army. "Nanyun Zhong said, "This is a gamble, general. If our army's sneak attack fails, the US Pacific Fleet, the fleet at Midway Island, and the fleet at Aleutian Island will surround our army. "
At this time, opposite him, Yamamoto Isoroku, whose entire face was hidden in shadow, set his sights on Pearl Harbor.
"Yes, it is a gamble. But Your Excellency Nagumo Chuichi, I also want to ask you to know one thing. There is never anything without risk in this world.
In fact, everything we do is gambling. It's just that some gambling risks are very small, and some gambling risks are very high.
The risk of gambling is small, which means the benefits are also small. When gambling is risky, it also means extremely high returns. "
Nan Yunzhong said: "General, you are right. But the risk this time is indeed too great."
He still has some concerns, but now the arrow is on the string and they have to shoot. There is no way back for them.
The battle plan was approved at the Royal Council this summer. Those in the War Department at that time were firmly opposed to it.
But the Emperor of Japan had already thought it over clearly and rejected several combat plans of the Ministry of War. This included plans to attack Shanxi again.
After all, there are only so many resources that the Army Department can plunder on Chinese soil. Now the Japanese army needs to open up new battlefields to plunder resources in other areas.
Southeast Asia is very rich, with endless rubber and many oil fields.
In Australia, there are a lot of iron ore, allowing them to have more steel. And with more steel, a century means more heavy weapons, including more tanks, more aircraft, more warships, etc
¡°But that¡¯s the territory of the Americans, the British, and even the French. They can only covet from the side, but they have no way to take the resources there as their own.
So the Japanese Army¡¯s General Staff Headquarters came up with such an almost crazy combat plan.
??Want an undeclared war against the United States, eliminate its naval power in the Pacific region, force them to negotiate with themselves, and withdraw their power in Southeast Asia.
This is a desperate move by the top brass of the Japanese military, which is commonly known as "betting on the fate of the country."
¡°The greater the risk, the greater the gain.¡±
Yamamoto Isoroku said softly, and his palm fell on the densely packed islands in Southeast Asia, scattered like stars in the South Pacific.
There are also regions such as Myanmar, Thailand, and even India.
"Look at it"?, such a big piece of land. As long as we win the bet, we can keep it all for ourselves. And the price we need to pay may only be hundreds of thousands of lives. "
Yamamoto Isoroku said, his eyes shining with light.
The "hundreds of thousands of lives" he mentioned seemed not worth mentioning. It was the smallest price to pay for this gamble.
For war gamblers like Yamamoto Isoroku, the lives of hundreds of thousands of people are also chips on the table. With these chips, he could win so much.
The sea breeze howled, blowing in through the gaps in the portholes.
He walked to the window and saw the Hokkaido coastline gradually disappearing from sight.
¡°When we come back again, we will be heroes.¡± He looked at the distant coastline and said.
Nagumo Chuichi was a little worried and didn't say anything. He just used his binoculars to look at the distant coast that was beginning to disappear from his field of vision.
At this time, on the rough waters of the Pacific Ocean, a large number of Japanese surface ships had been regarded as chips by Yamamoto Isoroku and placed on the gambling table.
And on the opposite side of this gambling table is a powerful enemy hidden in the shadows.
This enemy has a lot of chips in his hands, and control of the South Pacific region is the bargaining chip that Yamamoto Isoroku wants to win.
But he didn¡¯t know that the enemy hidden in the shadows was far more powerful than he imagined.
Even if that enemy loses a few chips in his hand, he can still easily defeat Yamamoto Isoroku.
Yamamoto Isoroku can only keep winning, but the person opposite can lose ninety-nine times very willfully.
But as long as this person wins once, Yamamoto Isoroku will lose all his money.
No, it was not Isoroku Yamamoto who lost all his money, but Japan as a whole.
At this time, Yamamoto Isoroku has already begun gearing up to use the bargaining chip in his hand-the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet! Pushed to the center of the gaming table.
This time, what he wants to win is the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet and actual control of Southeast Asia.
The man opposite Yamamoto Isoroku did not realize at this time that the gamble had already begun.
The man sitting opposite him was still busy tasting the delicious red wine and the aroma of cigars. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
