The journey starts from the Titanic

The Chinese Joint Fleet continued to move south and arrived at the South China’s capital Xintangshan. The enthusiasm of the people of China and South Korea reached a high level. They felt the strength of the country in their hearts, and the Chinese could walk straight in the South China Sea.

The Premier of South China, He Wenxiu, came to welcome the fleet in person. He saw the young Lin Yurong who had studied in South China. He also presented the award to this young man. He recognized Lin Yurong at a glance and enthusiastically shook Lin Yurong's hand. He smiled and asked "General Lin, the country is in danger, and the nation’s hopes are entrusted to one another. Isn’t it stressful? Hehe, when you are your age, I have led the soldiers to establish South China. When it comes to war, we Chinese are not afraid of anyone!"

Lin Yurong wanted to say something, but he didn't expect to meet a confident leader like He Wenxiu. He Wenxiu said what he should say. He can only nodded: "Thank the Prime Minister for his trust. I will serve the country faithfully.

He does have a reason to be grateful. Without He Wenxiu's support, can he become the commander of the combined fleet?Even if the Wuhan side is willing, Nanhua side may not.

Of course, there is another person who should be most grateful for cultivation-Situ Nan, if given the opportunity, Lin Yurong will not be able to see his benefactor for at least a few years.

Tokyo.

The Chinese joint fleet went south, which really made the Japanese nervous, and envied the Chinese soldiers for not occupying Annan. They actually wanted to get a share of the pie.

After receiving information from Nanhua, the Chinese joint fleet appeared in Xintangshan, "a hundred and eight thousand miles" away from the Japanese joint fleet. The commander of the fleet, Yamamoto, was relieved that the dangerous fleet would not appear in the Sea of ​​Japan. , Attacked the Japanese combined fleet.

Similarly, even if the Japanese joint fleet intends to attack them, it will have to go south. It is almost difficult to hide its tracks from being discovered. After all, the situation in the South China Sea is complicated, and the Chinese joint fleet is hiding in the safe Java Inland Sea.

The Americans didn't even know what to think, and there was no fierce action at all.

Standing in the pit, why didn't the Americans give up the Philippines and let the Imperial Navy go south?

Many generals of the Japanese Navy were dissatisfied with the American occupation of the Philippines and blocking Japan from going south.

I also envied the Chinese people's good position. They basically control the South China Sea. With South China as an internal response, the fleet can safely go south.

The Chinese Joint Fleet soon passed through the Sunda Strait and entered the Indian Ocean for training. Of course, they did not dare to cross the Strait of Malacca. The British were standing by the fortress in Singapore and dared not let them pass.

However, the entry of this fleet into the Indian Ocean put tremendous pressure on the British, and the main force of the Royal Navy's Indian Ocean fleet was dragged, unable to concentrate on returning to Europe to clean up the German navy.

The German Navy was beaten by the Royal Navy in Europe. Hitler very much hoped that China and Japan would join the war against Britain and sent special envoys to Asia to reconcile the conflict.

Under the mediation of the Germans, China and Japan came to the negotiating table and signed a secret treaty to jointly deal with the Soviet Union.

The Germans are very satisfied with the result, at least the two Eastern countries will not fight for the time being.

Hitler hoped to form an alliance with China. After all, China's industrial strength is slightly stronger than that of the Soviet Union. The Chinese Alliance is the most powerful force in Asia. However, China is not interested in alliances and believes that it has the ability to solve problems. The Japanese hope to form an alliance with Germany, but the German attitude Be cautious, for fear that a war breaks out between China and Japan and drags oneself into the water. If the Chinese turn around and form an alliance with Britain, Germany will be very troublesome.

The Germans do not want to see this result.

"It is a historical mission to deal with the Soviet Union and get back the territory that belongs to us. No matter how much the price is paid, we will not give up."

Song Ziwen told the German envoy that Hitler was ecstatic and soon became suspicious. After confirming that the Chinese National Defense Force had transferred the main force to the Sino-Soviet border, he gradually relaxed and implemented the Poporosa plan.

"Are the Japanese credible?"

"Are the Chinese credible?"

Wuhan and Tokyo also doubted each other's sincerity.At the same time, they didn't know that the Germans were so anxious that they were ready to attack the Soviet Union.

Both Berlin and Wuhan knew each other's intentions, but neither revealed the timing of the hands-on, and both had reservations about each other.

The Spring Festival of 1941 came in a blink of an eye. The Chinese people generally had a good life this year. Although there are often tabloids saying that there is going to be a war, the government said that the expansion of the army is to protect national security. China will not participate in the war in Europe. This is convinced.

However, the size of the army is getting bigger and bigger, orders from steel factories, arsenals, and machinery factories are increasing, and the warehouses are getting fuller with ammunition. It is an indisputable fact that the Air Force mobilizes young flying men from all over the country to join the army.

"The navy goes south, don't confront the British for the time being. The army goes north. After the Germans do it, we will do it again. We will wipe out the Soviet Far East military in one fell swoop and drive the Russians back to Europe. Then we will build a defense line and wait for the results in Europe to make plans."

At the secret meeting in Wuhan, Bai Chongxi suggested.

Although Germany did not land in the UK, the vitality of the UK was indeed hurt.

"Once we go north and Japan makes a silly shot, what should we do if we go south? Nanhua will be very dangerous." Lin Yimin reminded.

"With the Japanese character, after our country's main force is invested in the northern battlefield, it is very likely that it will go south, and of course, it may turn around to deal with us. After all, North Korea and Taiwan are in their hands."

Situ Yongdao.

"Being afraid of wolves and tigers in the back, the Japanese have the same mentality as us. They are all on guard against each other and dare not move easily. If we don't create opportunities for them to go south, the two sides will remain deadlocked."

Bai Chongxi was a little dissatisfied.

"What about the American attitude?"

Song Ziwen asked suddenly.

The gaze fell on the face of Absinthe, who made him the best representative of Situ Nan. Song Meiling couldn't do this, she was too assertive.

"The Roosevelt government assisted the United Kingdom. While acquiring British overseas bases, it also provided a large amount of supplies. It also sent pilots to the United Kingdom to fight. It can be seen that the Americans will spare no effort to save Britain and will never allow the Nazis to unite Europe. It is just due to the situation that they cannot participate in the war temporarily. But in the end they will definitely join the war.

The US arms giants have reached an agreement to promote...

Once they are ready, they only need a small excuse to get involved."

Wormwood believes itself.Finally, I added, "This is the opinion of the boss. Of course, the Americans first hope that the Germans and the Russians will fight first."

"Well, let's wait for the Germans to do it first, and we will try to fight the Far East again. If it fails, we will stop immediately and go south."

Song Ziwen solemnly stated that on the surface, the domestic economy is prosperous, and the expansion of the army has stimulated domestic demand. Major factories have received orders, but this situation cannot continue.

Since participating in the war, we must make sufficient preparations. Considering that we may face a two-front battle, 5 million troops may be insufficient. The Wuhan government plans to mobilize an army of 10 million people and mobilize women to join the army.

Of course, it is indispensable to reach various agreements with large consortium banks to get them to support the war.

How to seize resources from the people and use them in wars, the most acceptable way is to issue bonds!

...

Lin Yimin flew to Xintangshan specifically to inform the Wuhan Nanhua government of the strategic decision.

"I know you are unreliable. Fortunately, I didn't rely on you all. If the Japanese invaded South China and it's not that easy, let them come."

He Wenxiu said firmly.

The British air battle gave him confidence. Without defeating South China's air power, Japan could not land in South China. South China was not China, and Japanese submarines could not cut off South China's external transportation channels.

He Wenxiu convened a secret meeting with Wu Manli, Zhang Dongliang, Gao Wei, Yao Hongmin, Yu Mingyu, Jiang Weiji and others.

"It's going to fight, everyone, our enemy is likely to be the Japanese. Of course, this is only possible. In short, we must make all kinds of preparations."

He Wenxiu said loudly.

Everyone's heart shuddered and felt a lot of pressure.

In the face of threats from the sea, the people of Nanhua have not despaired. Nanhua has not been famous in recent years, but in terms of industrial strength, it is no less than Japan. It also has more than 200 tons of steel production. It has established a relatively complete industrial system and can manufacture. All kinds of light and heavy weapons.

In the aviation industry, New Tangshan is one of the two headquarters of American Airlines. American Airlines’ aircraft manufacturing capacity and scale has always been first-class in Asia, stronger than Japan’s Mitsubishi. The South China Air Force has five to six hundred new fighters. , Not afraid of threats from the sea.

Moreover, the Chinese Joint Fleet is still in South China. Once a war breaks out, South China will also receive China's support.
