Chapter 1134 Unlucky Fleet Commander

Within the Military Command Bureau, Boss Dai ordered the archives of Chen Mingxiang to be sealed up personally. No one knew his identity except for the three people, preventing the possibility of leaks.

Even if he was caught in danger, he could resolutely deny that the Japanese and puppets could not verify his information. There was only one situation that could catch him unless Wang Zhen rebelled.

However, Chen Mingxiang's identity in the Military Control Bureau is a strategic agent and a Type A stationmaster. Time also reflects his value. What about the underground party?Maybe you think he is a progressive person who can fight for?

It is not that he wants to be an official, but his own professional habits, or that he is more affected by the Military Regiment Bureau, and he is too sensitive to such things as leaks.

And Zheng Tonghui also understood what Chen Mingxiang meant. He very much hopes to join the underground party organization, but not now. Because the surrounding environment is too complicated, it is best not to have direct contact.

In fact, Zheng Tonghui could not think of the threats around Chen Mingxiang. He knew that Chen Mingxiang had a close relationship with the Military Unification Bureau, but he didn't know that Chen Mingxiang was the local power faction of the Military Unification Bureau and the stationmaster of the Type A station!

The time came to the end of the month. On March 31, the Executive Yuan of the Wang Puppet Government issued a document to remove Zhao Zunyue from the post of Secretary General of the Municipal Government. The Deputy Minister of Railways appointed Wu Songzhu as Secretary General of the Shanghai Special Municipal Government. Functions as acting mayor.

Chen Gongbo did not return, and Chen Mingxiang, the administrative supervisor of the municipal government, presided over the handover ceremony, as well as the farewell ceremony and welcome ceremony in the evening.

Because he drank a lot, he didn't get up until noon. At the cocktail party last night, a large group of city government officials rushed to toast him, reflecting the true meaning of the hot words.

"Ono-kun, why did you come here quietly?" Chen Mingxiang was walking outside just after lunch, only to find that the car from the Marine Corps headquarters in Shanghai had arrived.

Ono Osa, Shimada Nakasa, and Nakajima Osa, their faces were very ugly. Chen Mingxiang knew that this was a major incident on the naval side, but the U.S. Navy was going to fight the Mariana Islands and won’t win so soon, right?

"Chen Jun, a very bad news. The commander of the Imperial Navy's combined fleet, General Furukawa, and Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Fuliufan yesterday morning encountered a storm while flying to the Philippines. In the case of death, Lieutenant General Fukuliu Fan's plane made an emergency landing, which is considered to have survived the disaster." Ono Osa said frustrated.

It turned out that General Furukawa was preparing to move the headquarters of the combined fleet from the battleship Musashi to the Filipino. The reason was that the battleship was hit by a torpedo from an American submarine in Palau and had to return to Japan for repairs and lost its flagship. Ability.

For Japan’s last hope, Mimeichi Furukawa intends to intercept the U.S. Navy’s Fifth Fleet and engage in the final desperate fight. At 9 am on March 31, they travelled from Palau Island in the Caroline Islands to two planes in western Sichuan. The four-engine seaplane set off, and when it was about to reach the Philippines, there was a storm, and Guhefeng's plane crashed.

The 56th National Congress of Yamamoto was on April 18 last year. The plane was attacked by the U.S. Air Force and was killed. Furukawa Peak was killed on March 31 this year when the plane crashed in a storm. The Japanese navy teamed up. The fleet seems to have entered a bad season. In less than a year, two commanders were lost.

"This is indeed terrible news. I have also met a general Gu Hefeng, and my impression of him is still fresh. I didn't expect that in a year's time, he encountered such an unacceptable disaster. Who will replace the commander?" Chen Mingxiang Asked.

In fact, he had heard before that although Koga Fengichi was a naval admiral, he was basically on the same level as General Yamamoto's 56th National Congress in terms of qualifications, but his resume was not very brilliant.

Long-term squatting in the office, especially when he was the commander of the Japanese Navy's China Front Fleet and the Yokosuka garrison, had no actual combat experience.

Although he has the ability, he is not enough to be the commander of the joint fleet. He has no experience, no achievements, and no dealings with the joint fleet, which is a typical three-no product.

However, the Japanese Navy is a very peculiar existence. The phenomenon of seniority is very serious. The 56th National Congress of Yamamoto of the 32nd phase of the Etajima Naval Academy has died. The seniors who graduated before him cannot serve as commanders of the joint fleet. The younger students choose.

There are also hard targets. Those who have served as commander of the Second Fleet, commander of Yokosuka and Wu Zhenshoufu, deputy commander of the military command, and deputy commander of the navy are qualified.

Furukawa is a naval admiral. He has served as Deputy Commander of the Military Command, Commander of the Second Fleet, and Commander of the Yokosuka Shoufu Prefecture. There is no problem in terms of qualifications.

At that time, the most suitable candidate was the Vice Admiral of Toyota, and his relationship with the army was severely opposed. In addition, he had just served as a military senator, so he fell on him.

"It is Toyota Vice Admiral Takeshi as the commander of the combined fleet. He is currently the best candidate, but he is now the commander of the Yokosuka garrison. He can only take office in May. The navy stipulates that no transfer is allowed within a year," said Ono Osa. .

It is actually Toyota Deputy Wulai as the commander of the combined fleet!

Chen Mingxiang had heard of this man a long time ago. The reason was that he had compiled a dictionary cursing the army, which was extremely extreme.

In fact, this matter is not that simple. Toyota Deputy Takeshi didn’t want to be the commander of the combined fleet, because after Yamamoto’s 56th death, he was the most qualified to take over. He was rejected as a naval school. The senior of the third phase made Gu Hefeng of the thirty-fourth phase of the Naval Academy become the commander of the joint fleet, and he was angry in his heart.

But Shintaro Shimada, the Minister of the Navy and Commander-in-Chief of the Military Command, has no better choice now. He said that this was the decision of the Marine Marshal Fushimi Miyahiro Kyou, right and wrong.

Toyota Vice Takeshi was still unwilling, so he asked Nanyun Tada to be the commander of the joint fleet. Shimada said that Nanyun Tadaichi was in the 36th period. It was impossible to be a commander with insufficient qualifications. Toyota Deputy Takeshi Assumed the post of commander.

The situation has not deteriorated to the bottom line. Chen Mingxiang felt that the actions of the Japanese Navy seemed to reveal a message that the US Navy had not yet launched an offensive against the Mariana Islands.

"What's the current trend of the U.S. Navy? There is no attack on the imperial absolute defense circle, right?" Chen Mingxiang asked.

"That hasn't been discovered yet, but it will happen sooner or later. The U.S. Navy's submarine forces are in large numbers in the waters around the Mariana Islands, attacking the transport ships and warships of the Empire, and it is very difficult to supply ammunition and supplies." Ono Nakasa said. .
