    Chapter 1331 The Battle between the Army and the Navy Major General Reiki Teichi, Chief of the Japanese Army General Staff, continued: "General, this is already the bottom line of our army." General Yamamoto Isoroku did not want to give in at all. He continued: "You guys  The army should not be too wishful thinking. Without the support of our navy, you will not be able to cross the Sea of ??Japan." The Minister of Army immediately stood up and said: "You!" When Prime Minister Hideki Tojo saw that they were about to have a stalemate, he stood up quickly.  He got up to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, then please ask the Army to leave two more second-class divisions on the Pacific battlefield. This will be all right. General Yamamoto, please give in."  The 16th General had no choice but to accept this. He groaned and sat down. Tojo Hideki suppressed the question at a glance. He then said to Chief of Staff Reiki Sadichi: "Please Reiki-kun."  Tell everyone about your plan in detail, Your Majesty is waiting. "So the Chief of General Staff, Major General Reiki Teichi, began to explain the specific plan to everyone. For the Chinese Empire's march, our plan is divided into three routes:  The first road is Busan, North Korea, opposite us. The straight-line distance is 200 kilometers. We plan to use thirty divisions here. We believe that the North Korean army cannot resist our army. After the Chinese army knows the news of our attack  , they will definitely come to support them, but it will take fifteen days for their troops to arrive, but by that time our Western allies have already fought with them on the Western Front. If you add this factor, it will take fifteen days  time.  Our front troops should be able to reach the Yalu River, and the entire North Korea is already in our hands.  The second route is to directly enter China¡¯s Sakhalin Island from our northernmost point.  The distance there is even closer, only fifty kilometers. We can use their railway to quickly transport the army to Khabarovsk, and then directly to their inland city Harbin; The goal of the Third Route Army is a small town east of their Vladivostok  It is a small village and town, but it has not been well-known recently. However, the dock there can dock large warships. Its name is Pearl Harbor. Our intelligence personnel have successfully lurked there for five years. It is far away from  The distance to Vladivostok is only 200 kilometers.  Their train could transport us to Vladivostok on the same day.  The time for our attack is determined by the Germans. We will launch the attack three days or five days after they launch the attack on the Chinese Empire. We will only launch the attack after they have completely attracted the Chinese people's energy to the west.  Yes, this will help our Western allies to take the first step.  After Major General Reiki Sadakachi, Chief of General Staff, said, he showed an evil smile, if Hitler saw this.  He will definitely skin him.  The emperor's imperial meeting ended, and Navy Commander Yamamoto Isoroku returned to his car. Regarding the plan proposed by the Army, he had to consider how to send a fleet to escort him. From the perspective of the plan itself, the problem was not big.  .  The distance is very close. Once you encounter the navy of the Chinese Empire, you can fight if you can. If you can't fight, you can quickly run back to your own military port and use the support of shore firepower.  Our own fleet will not suffer any losses, let alone the current aircraft carrier fleet of the Chinese Empire.  There are only two fleets, and they are not in the north now. At least they have no aircraft carriers deployed in the Sea of ??Japan.  Major General Yamada, the chief of staff of General Yamamoto, asked from the side: "Your Excellency, Commander, what do you think of the plans of these idiots in the Army?" "What else can we do? Didn't the Emperor nod? We can only make arrangements and deal with them.  "Commander, our navy will be in danger." "You said." General Yamamoto has always regarded Major General Yamada as a friend, and he is assured of his abilities and knowledge.  Yes, now that I heard that he had different opinions, I decided to listen to what he meant.  "Your Excellency, Commander, judging from the current situation, the Chinese do not seem to have any defenses on the other side, but if they want to, they can do it very quickly. Judging from the naval strength of Japan, Britain, the United States, and China,  On the surface, it seems that they are not ranked at the front, but who in the world would rank the Chinese navy at the back? " "On the surface, our navy is stronger than theirs, and their aircraft carriers are not as good as ours.  Now we have a total of eight aircraft carriers, and they only have four, but they have at least four undergoing sea trials." "I have already considered this issue, and they still need a few aircraft carriers.  If it takes more than a year for them to enter the navy, we can ignore them now." "Your Excellency, the Americans have aircraft carriers that have not yet been completed, and they will serve directly.Yeah.  "Major General Yamada reminded carefully. "Yes, Americans have this situation, so we have to be careful.  " "Your Excellency, it is not only the problem of the aircraft carrier, but also their submarines, which cannot be underestimated.  " General Yamamoto Isoroku smiled bitterly and said: "Then we can only resign ourselves to fate. The naval battle more than forty years ago made us bow our heads to them for half a century.  A powerful navy, we are now going one-on-three, which is not a good thing. It seems that we can only fight to the death.  " "We can suppress the US military and fight now, but if we fight with the Chinese navy in the offshore, the Americans will come to the Pacific, and then our life will be difficult.  "Lieutenant General Yamada said worriedly. General Yamamoto Isoroku did not speak any more. He began to think deeply. When Chief of Staff Yamada saw the commander like this, he stopped talking. The future of the Japanese Navy depends on the two of them at this time.  The mood is the same, it is destined to be doomed. The part of Italy on the Mediterranean is like a boot, with one of their natural harbors at the bottom. This is the largest base of the Italian Navy. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides.  South-west is the exit to the Mediterranean. In the middle of the exit is a small island called San Pietro Island. It firmly guards the exit of the military port. During World War I, the British failed to do anything to it. During World War II,  After the beginning, the British still had no solution, but now the British have handed over this arduous task to the Chinese and asked them to solve this problem that they have been unable to solve. General Nie Qing, the supreme commander of the Western Front, looked carefully.  After checking the terrain, he handed the task over to the Navy. Taking off from Iran, Israel, and several airports around the Black Sea was not ideal. It would be best if it was completed by a Navy aircraft carrier, so the Navy took over the task.  Mission. The Chinese Second Task Force, which is patrolling the Atlantic Ocean, begins to move towards Gibraltar, which belongs to the British and is working for the British. I believe they will give strong support to the British naval base in Gibraltar.  , the local British Navy provided the Chinese Navy with all the intelligence they knew. Regarding their intelligence, the commander of the task force, Major General Xiao Zhenjiang, and his chief of staff, Colonel Ding Kun, looked at the British intelligence.  In their hearts, they felt that it was too much for them. They only had a few simple photos from a distance. The British intelligence was too undetailed and only had some superficial things, so they sent a request to their intelligence department, asking them to provide  Assistance, now they are waiting for their own intelligence. The Chinese intelligence department has already been in action. They have already started their operations as soon as the task is handed over to the Chinese side. Through the efforts of the intelligence personnel in Taranto, they  They already had Taranto's map, force allocation map, aerial photos, and anti-aircraft gun positions in their hands. After receiving the order, they immediately sorted out the information, and then handed these things over to a Chinese ship.  The navy submarine went up. On a deserted beach more than a hundred kilometers southwest of the Taranto Naval Base in Italy, there were two European-looking people there. They stared nervously at the sea in the distance.  The task is to hand over a small box to people coming from the sea. The time is almost one o'clock in the night, but there is no movement on the sea. Is there something wrong?  The hour hand pointed to one point, and the people on the coast used flashlights to send signals to the distant sea, two long and one short. There was an answer immediately on the sea, which was also a light signal. They were two short and one long, but the distance was about  It was a thousand meters away, so the two of them had to wait patiently for their people to come and take away the documents. They couldn't easily get over such a long distance.  However, they did not wait long. Soon they heard the sound of water, and soon they saw the communication light signal dozens of meters away. The two of them hurriedly responded to the signal and walked there.  , two people stood up from the water on the beach. When they got closer, they saw that it was a rubber boat. A soldier in a blue navy uniform had gotten off the boat and walked towards the shore.  come over.  The people who got off the boat came forward, saluted the two of them and said, "Did you bring the things?" "You brought them." He said and handed over the small box in his hand.  The soldier took the box with his left hand and stretched out his right hand to shake hands with the two of them: "Thank you." "You're welcome, we are all serving the motherland." "Okay, we are going back, you should also pay attention to safety."  The soldier turned around and returned to his boat. After getting on board, the electricThe motor of the plane rang softly again, and disappeared as quickly as it came. The two people on the shore knew that they must have returned to their submarine, and they immediately thought of Taranto.  The Italian naval base is about to be in trouble.
