Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

June 1942, 6, at the Weapons Experimental Research Bureau at the foot of the Yin Mountains, north of Baotou.

"Hey, I'm finally back. This trip to the headquarters was really tiring! Wang Dexing, go say hello to the deputy director first, and then go around to the section chiefs."

"If there are any important documents that I need to take care of first, just bring them directly to my office."

"By the way, help me get a meal when you pass by the cafeteria. I haven't eaten anything after a whole morning of hard work, and even an iron man can't stand it."

"Yes!"

After the performance ended perfectly, Huang He immediately led Wang Dexing and his nine-member guard team and returned to Suiyuan Military Region on a special plane.

That morning, after a short rest, he went straight to the director's office and began to deal with the pending tasks that had been piling up for many days.

After several hours of busy work, it was already time for dinner.

Just when Huang picked up a piece of watermelon and was about to savor the appetizer fruit prepared by the bureau's canteen, the door of his office was suddenly pushed open.

The visitor was none other than the Army reorganization expert who had not been seen for a long time.

"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. The entire Pacific battlefield is in chaos, and you're still in the mood to leisurely eat watermelon in your office."

"The Japanese Navy is indeed an opponent that cannot be underestimated. I wonder if our comrades can fight the Combined Fleet in a specific sea area after receiving the French warships."

"Okay, put the melon down. Wash your hands quickly and come over to see the latest intelligence our military district has just received."

Compared with the scorching hot North China, the temperature in Baotou in early June is generally moderate.

However, due to objective reasons such as geographical location, terrain features and climate type, the temperature here at noon is simply outrageous. In some cases, the maximum temperature can even exceed 30 degrees.

Taking the health of scientists into consideration, the Suiyuan Military Region specially supplied the Weapons Testing and Research Bureau with watermelons grown in the Hetao area to help everyone relieve the heat and produce saliva.

It is worth mentioning that the seeds used by local people all come from the migrant worker factories within the system.

This thin-skinned, juicy, sweet and refreshing watermelon has a strong adaptability and can thrive even in saline-alkali land. Its abilities are similar to those of the Zaojia 8424 cultivated by Academician Wu.

The freedom to eat melons is just around the corner!
Looking at the anxious army reorganization expert in front of him, Huang He hurriedly put aside the watermelon he had just taken two bites of, and then wiped his hands with the towel on the tray.

After cleaning, he took the brown paper bag handed to him by the other party, then took out the original intelligence and began to carefully read it word by word.

"Ouch!"

I don’t know, I’m scared.

In fact, before he officially opened the document, Huang was still a little bit unconvinced. In early June, another battle took place in the Pacific, the Battle of Midway.

This battle was such a classic. He knew every detail of the game between the Japanese and Ugly commanders, and even the altitude at which Best chose to drop the bomb.

but!

Reality is often more magical than novels. Just by taking a look at the title of the intelligence, Huang He showed an expression of extreme shock.

"Oh my god, Nanyun and Yamaguchi are fighting together? Even the ammo-changing sage can survive? 3.5 to 2.5, this is the record they achieved at Midway?"

"The flying dragon was able to be revived by damage control, but it took a whole battle to be barely broken? Best, what are you doing!!"

"Hiss, if you calculate it this way, the only main aircraft carrier of the Pacific Fleet of the Ugly Country left is a severely damaged and non-combat-capable Enterprise. It's really a family of loyal Yorktown."

Huang He's shocked tone made the army reorganization expert who was waiting on the side feel even more melancholy.

When big countries fight, one move often affects the whole body. In his opinion, the Japanese, who have completely damaged the Ugly Navy, may really force Master Luo to the negotiation table.

Once Achou signs an armistice agreement with the Japanese at the cost of ceding some of its Southeast Asian interests, the Republic of China will most likely face greater pressure in the future.

"Hey, now you know why I'm so anxious and angry."

"I really don't know what the ugly Chinese are doing. Why can't they be more steady at the critical moment? If we let the Japanese easily recover a large amount of blood, who knows how long this war will last."

"Don't just stand there, tell me what you think about this naval battle and the subsequent wars. This is your area of ​​expertise."

Hearing this, Huang He took out a piece of white paper from the drawer of his desk. Then, relying on his super memory, he drew a picture of the strategic situation of the Japanese in the Pacific battlefield.

After a moment, he looked at the Army Reorganization Expert, who had a slightly serious expression on his face, and analyzed in a relaxed tone:
"The defeat in the Battle of Midway and the heavy damage to the Pacific Fleet were indeed a great loss for the Ugly Country. However! This is the limit of the Japanese Navy. There is no way they can continue to attack eastward."

As soon as these words were spoken, President Nie immediately gave him a puzzled look.

He was a pure army man, and his personal position in the army was more inclined towards modernization, so he didn't know much about the details of naval warfare. As if he could see his colleagues' confusion, Huang He pointed to the mainland, Midway Island, Oahu Island, and the west coast of the Ugly Country with his pen and continued to explain:
"As far as I know, there are no existing ship maintenance facilities at Midway. In other words, the large ships in the Combined Fleet cannot use it as a forward base to continue their advance."

"So if they want to capture Oahu, the Japanese still have to start from their homeland and lead their army to launch a landing operation thousands of miles away."

"It's a distance of thousands of nautical miles. If the Japanese dare to deploy troops on a large scale over long distances, the submarine forces of the Ugly Country will definitely get a lot of benefits. Maybe there will be more than a dozen level 21 ace captains."

At this point, the Army restructuring expert has completely understood the deep meaning of his colleague's words.

After the Battle of Midway, the U.S. Pacific Fleet did need to rest for a long time before it could recover its combat effectiveness, but the Japanese also did not have the ability to pursue the victory and expand the results of the victory.

After all, Oahu is a sea fortress surrounded by large-caliber coastal defense artillery, and it is also stationed with a real main force. The difficulty of landing operations is no easier than going to heaven.

Then, combined with the current status of various countries, the trend of war in the next year becomes immediately clear.

In one word, hold it!

The Ugly Country will defend the Australian mainland defense line to avoid being cut off by the enemy's counterattack. However, don't consider Guadalcanal, as non-strategic locations must be selectively abandoned.

The British and the Russians continued to hold on, but after the largest client stopped supplying goods, they had to either consider becoming self-reliant or find a new backer.

French chicken? Old Dai must be very happy now.

In the next year, he will be free to roam freely in Africa. Without the pressure of Operation Torch, as long as the main force is not caught by the German Third Army, almost no one can stop his ambition to dominate Africa.

As for TG, it should just honestly use its advantages to do business.

As long as they are allies, we will welcome them all.

"Well, it seems that I was worrying for nothing. According to the current situation, maybe the ugly people will take the initiative to seek help and let us help share some of their pressure."

"Yes, so you should just stay calm. Instead of worrying about others, you should think about how to resettle the victims."

······
After his doubts were resolved, the army reorganization expert felt much better. He even picked up a piece of watermelon from the tray and talked to Huang He about the drama of the past few days.

However, the leisure time did not last too long. Just as they were reminiscing and chatting, Wang Dexing's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Boss Nie, Director, there's an urgent call from the border area!"

As soon as these words came out, Huang He immediately jumped up from his chair and opened the door for his correspondent. After receiving the telegram, he immediately went to his colleague and started to check it with him.

After a moment, the two looked at each other and saw smiles on each other's faces.

"Haha, speak of the devil, he appears."

"I never expected that the moment we mentioned the possibility of the Ugly Country asking for help, they sent us a formal document. Huang He, what price do you think we should offer?"

"Do you have something that you need the organization to help you get?"

The content of the telegram sent by Wang Dexing was not complicated. In general, it can be summed up in one sentence: Rabbit, I am Ah Chou, my buddy can’t stand it anymore, help me quickly!

In fact, it is not difficult to understand the other party's psychological journey of asking for help. After all, among the major participating countries in the world at this stage, only the Fourth Master and the Eighth Master can suppress the Axis on their own.

What's more, the Eighth Route Army Air Force has the strategic bombing capability to directly strike Japan's homeland, making it the perfect choice to attract firepower.

If he didn't ask TG for help, would he go looking for preserved fruits? Without his own military assistance, I'm afraid the bald guy would have to consider forming an exiled government.

Hearing this, Huang He touched his chin and began to think seriously.

Theoretically, the border region should take advantage of the weakness of the Ugly Country to recall its scientists who were studying in North America. However, with the Awakening Brave Tiger System, returning home is not a problem.

As for weapons, what the Ugly Country Army currently has, the Fourth Master and the Eighth Master also have similar equipment, so there is no need to add anything unnecessary.

After eliminating all the wrong options, a bold but reasonable idea emerged in Huang He's mind. He smacked his lips and tentatively proposed to the army reorganization expert:

"Well, I think it's a good idea to continue to complete the navy."

"If the Ugly Americans take the initiative to make an offer, we will ask for a Borg-class escort carrier, ten Fletcher-class destroyers, and twenty Catshark-class submarines. Oh, and Liberty ships, which are also good transport ships."

"This price should be reasonable. We are risking our lives to buy them time. It is not too much to ask for a main surface ship that is not ours."

"Okay, I'll help you communicate with the border area. But the specific results still depend on your eldest brother." (End of this chapter)
