"Old Zhou, sit down!" Chen Jiliang pressed Zhou Zhirou down and said, "What is the current personnel configuration of the navy?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Weiguo felt a little helpless, and then said, "Currently, the captain of the battleship formation is Zhang Qian. I think Brother Ji Liang should also know about it."
"He resigned from his position before, but he didn't expect that he would join the independent division." Chen Jiliang sighed, "He is also a man who is upright and upright."
Zhou Weiguo nodded, "So, I suggest that he concurrently serve as the deputy commander and deputy chief of staff of the naval division."
"Okay." Chen Jiliang nodded.
"As for the chief of staff, I recommend Lin Jianzhang." Zhou Weiguo added.
"Lin Jianzhang? Isn't he in Shanghai?" Chen Jiliang was surprised.
"That's right, I brought him here with me." Zhou Weiguo said, "What do you think, brother Ji Liang?"
"Of course you can!" Chen Jiliang said with a smile, "That way, it saves me the trouble of making arrangements."
"There is also the captain of the submarine formation, Liu Zhihui, who is also a new recruit, but his record is very good." Zhou Weiguo said with a smile.
"This is Brother Wei Guo's younger brother, right?" Zhou Zhirou knew something about Liu Zhihui.
"Not bad." Zhou Weiguo nodded.
"Really, they are all young and promising." Chen Jiliang sighed.
"However, our aircraft carrier currently does not have enough manpower and carrier-based aircraft. This requires the two of you to work together." Zhou Weiguo said immediately.
"Okay, okay, I will send a letter immediately, please send more personnel! Brother Weiguo, don't worry, I will definitely give you the combat capability." Chen Jiliang said excitedly.
Zhou Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, neither of them opposed him. If they really didn't cooperate, they would have made trouble. Then he smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
"Hey, we're all fighting against the Japanese during the war, what's there to thank you for?" Chen Jiliang said with a smile, "But brother Wei Guo is really rich." Even the central government couldn't afford to buy these equipment.
At this time, Zhou Zhirou also remembered that the independent division was indeed very wealthy.
"Fortunately, the main reason is that there is some income." Zhou Weiguo smiled shyly, "In addition, I have reliable connections with Germany and the United States, so I can buy it."
This can be regarded as dispelling other ideas of the two people. You must know that Lao Jiang can't buy good things with money. Then, Zhou Weiguo said, "If there is anything you need, I will give it to you." Either a fighter plane or a battleship, just tell me and I will find a way to get it for you, but there is one requirement, which is combat effectiveness."
"Okay! Don't worry, brother Weiguo! I, Zhou Zhirou, have trained so many pilots. This time, I will definitely lead your troops well!" Zhou Zhirou stood up first to express his stance.
"Me too, I must improve my combat effectiveness as soon as possible!" Chen Jiliang said, "After all, now that the Japanese have torn up the agreement, we should always be vigilant."
Zhou Weiguo nodded. Fortunately, the two people sent by Chiang Kai-shek had real abilities, which made him feel more relaxed.
"In this way, I will notify Qiu Ao, Zhu Ziming, Zhu Jiaxun, Zhang Qian, Liu Zhihui and others to come over soon, and together with the main cadres of our independent division, we will help you two." Zhou Weiguo said with a smile, "We know each other. "
"Thank you very much."
…
While Zhou Weiguo was assisting Zhou Zhirou and Chen Jiliang, the Japanese army was quarreling.
"We should attack Nanchang first!"
"Hit Laiyang first!"
"Attack Nanchang first!"
"Laiyang!"
"Everyone be quiet!" Hiranuma Kiichiro patted the table and frowned. It was originally planned to attack Nanchang first, but for some reason, the navy actually proposed to attack Laiyang first. The reason was that Laiyang's navy and air force. Especially the navy
, they have suffered enough these days. As a result, the army and navy started to quarrel.
Afterwards, the people on both sides became quiet and just looked at each other bitterly. However, what the people on both sides said was reasonable. The navy and air force of the independent division had indeed brought them a lot of trouble.
"Attack Nanchang first." Kiichiro Hiranuma said calmly. This was decided from the beginning, and for the time being, it will not be changed due to the opposition of the navy.
"Yes!" Several army generals sat down happily as if they had won a battle.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I suggest that all the 10 newly expanded divisions in the past few months be transferred to Nanchang. After Nanchang is captured, they can then move westward to Changsha." Sugiyama Gen immediately said, "When Nanchang is captured, our planes will
We have a place to stay.”
Hiranuma Kiichiro nodded and said, "Okay, but how about pre-battle command?"
"I believe that Okamura Neji can still be responsible." Sugiyama Gen said directly.
"good."
"As for the navy, Mr. Mi Cabinet, do you think we should attack Laiyang at the same time?" Hiranuma Kiichiro said. At this time, he wanted to attack both sides at the same time and solve both sides at the same time.
As soon as Hiranuma Kiichiro's words came out, Sugiyama Gen's face turned ugly and said, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Laiyang's side is not limited to the navy."
Mitsumasa Yoneuchi's face was also very ugly. Sugiyama Gen's words seemed to slap him in the face, and he immediately said, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I believe that we can attack Laiyang first with the navy and bombard it with fighter planes, which will directly weaken Laiyang's strength."
"You have a fighter plane, but Laiyang doesn't have a fighter plane?" Sugiyama Yuan retorted, "When the time comes, you must not suffer a big loss."
"According to intelligence, most of the bombers of the Laiyang Independent Division have been damaged in this bombing operation." Mitsumasa Yoneuchi retorted.
"What about the fighters of the Independent Division? Are your bombers going to be targets?" Sugiyama Gen retorted again.
This time, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi stopped talking. Indeed, only their navy could not defeat Laiyang.
"Okay, that's it, attack Nanchang first, and then move west to Changsha after defeating Nanchang." Hiranuma Kiichiro said, "As for the commander-in-chief before the war, let Okamura Neji be here. After all, he knows the situation best. As for Lai
Yang, if the empire wants to attack Laiyang, it still has to make a lot of preparations. It can only attack when everything is ready."
"Yes!" So, the matter was settled like this.
"Takeshita-kun, I would like to trouble you about the preparations and arrangements for the war." Hiranuma Kiichiro said to Takeshita Shun. Takeshita Shun was inserted into the cabinet and was given a position. He is the new Minister of Commerce and Industry, in charge of the country's economy and industry, which is equivalent to
Controlled the money bag.
Takeshita Jun nodded. At this time, he had to prepare calmly. He originally wanted to influence the emperor through himself and abandon the Chinese battlefield, but he did not expect that Zhou Wei would be so provocative. If he did not prepare well, he would be doing harm to the warriors of his country.
Irresponsible. But he has just joined the cabinet, and he can't just give up his job, otherwise, his family will be affected. "I will try my best to allocate resources, but now the empire's resources are tight, and there are things that cannot be done well."
