Chapter 3015 Kim Jonghwa Brigade
Mr. President was talking eloquently there, while the generals of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were staring at the sea view sand table in front of them, all frowning, as if they were taking a long test.

Through the sea view sand table, the current situation of the Palau naval battle is quite clear.Taking the Palau sea area of ​​the Pacific Ocean as the coordinates, the Chinese Pacific Fleet is divided into three groups, firmly curbing the channel of the US-Japanese combined fleet to the Philippines.About [-] kilometers away from the Chinese Fleet due east, the U.S.-Japan Combined Fleet is stationed here. The Japanese Combined Fleet is in front, and the U.S. Pacific Fleet aircraft carrier formation is behind. In the middle; about [-] kilometers away from the sea area where the U.S.-Japan Joint Fleet Chen Bing, is the battleship formation of the U.S. Pacific Fleet that is no longer worthy of its name.

Although Truman is not good at military affairs, the sea view sand table in front of him is so intuitive, so he can also get a little insight from it.Seeing that the generals were all just looking at the sand table silently, and no one catered to his topic, he asked, "Can we only retreat to the Philippines? After all, Papua Island is under our control, and it's not very far from Australia..."

Truman's words were of course very laymen, so Secretary of the Navy Knox immediately answered: "Mr. President, you are right, we can indeed order the Pacific Fleet to retreat to Papua Island. But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, we must abandon those The aircraft carrier that has already been lost. Not only that, but if the Japanese cannot help us hold the Chinese, the Pacific Fleet will be chased by the Chinese fleet. According to the information we have obtained, the speed of the Chinese aircraft carrier is much higher than our aircraft carrier, and The Chinese still have asymmetric weapons such as missiles. So, it seems that this is the safest, but in fact there are many hidden dangers.”

"How about withdrawing to Hawaii?" Truman asked tentatively again.

"It's unrealistic. The Pacific Fleet is too far away from Hawaii. I dare to assert that if we really do this, the Chinese will repeat their tricks and send out long-range bomber groups to carry out follow-up bombing again! Mr. President, Guam is still there. In the hands of the Chinese, the forward platform of Guandao will double the combat radius of Chinese long-range bombers!"

"Is it only possible to break out of the siege to the Philippines?"

Knox hadn't thought of a better way, so he shut his mouth tactfully.

The atmosphere in the conference room was cold for a while. Suddenly, Secretary of the Army Stimson said, "It's not that there are other ways!"

Everyone looked at him immediately.

Stimson stood up, slammed his right hand directly at Kyushu Island, Japan, and said: "In the current situation, the Chinese will obviously not let go of the opportunity to expand the victory. Since the Chinese defense direction is the Philippines, can we find another way to go directly to Japan? As far as I know, China's current military layout, the Ryukyu Islands and Japan are the weakest. Moreover, if we go to Japan, it is tantamount to providing support to the Japanese mainland. This is definitely what the Japanese are happy to see. Presumably, the Japanese will do their best to help us hold back the Chinese fleet."

Stimson only spoke half of what he said, and those who were quick-witted saw the key point, and many people's eyes lit up immediately.After he finished speaking, the more people thought about it, the more they felt that this method was wonderful, and they immediately supported his suggestion.

Stimson's words were not finished, he continued: "There is another advantage of doing this, that is, we can decide whether to raid Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands according to the situation. In the case that the main force of the Chinese fleet is fighting outside, the Chinese have no ability to fight against us. If we can help the Japanese mainland to change the current predicament, the Japanese mainland can in turn launch a counterattack in the direction of North Korea and Ryukyu. This will buy enough time for the Pacific Fleet to rest—just in case, China If people can withstand our surprise attack, then the Pacific Fleet will directly withdraw from the Japanese mainland to Hawaii. In that case, the safety factor will be much higher. Moreover, with this period of time as a buffer, we can also send enough supplies from the mainland to Hawaii , to help the Pacific Fleet restore its combat power as soon as possible!"

Truman was not good in military affairs, but he was not weak in his ability to read words and deeds. He saw the relaxed and joyful expressions of the generals present after Stimson finished speaking, and he knew that Stimson had made a coup. Is this really possible?"

Stimson: "Of course. But there is a premise, that is, the Japanese must help us hold up the Chinese fleet for a certain period of time. Mr. President, you have to come forward to solve this."

Truman breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "No problem! If it can help the Japanese alleviate the current local crisis, the Japanese have no reason to refuse!"

The efficiency of Americans is quite fast. They have a meeting at noon and come up with a resolution around five o'clock in the afternoon.At around six o'clock in the evening, a secret telegram signed by Truman himself was sent to Koizumi Toshiichiro's desk.

The Americans thought they had found the turning point in the Second Pacific War, so they went all out.Compared with them, the Southeast Asian Japanese army led by Koizumi Toshiichiro has actually given up support for the combined fleet because of the huge changes that are not conducive to the Japanese army in the Battle of Ganbang.

Therefore, when Truman's secret telegram was handed over to Koizumi Toshiichiro, it did not attract much attention from the latter.

There was a sudden turning point in the battle of Ganbang, and the root cause was Kim Jong-hwa's brigade who was originally stationed at Xiaolin Heights.

Just last night, when the eyes of the whole world were attracted by the successive battles in the waters near Palau in the Pacific Ocean, Kim Jong-hwa brigade quietly left the Xiaolin Heights, and under the cover of night, they rushed all the way to the southeast. At about three o'clock in the morning, they touched an artillery position between the first-line Japanese army and the second-line army.

Later generations cannot imagine how the Kim Jong-hwa brigade could pass through the three Japanese defense lines and appear in this key position. In fact, it was Kim Jong-hwa who was involved. It should be regarded as this Japanese artillery position behind the enemy.

The exact time was [-]:[-] in the morning. When Kim Jong-hwa was estimating where his troops were on the map with a military flashlight, the reconnaissance platoon directly under the brigade, which was in charge of reconnaissance missions, was walking at the front of the troops. Chief Zhang Genyong came over on tiptoe and happily reported to him: "Traveler, this time, the artillery position!"

"Are you sure?" Kim Jong-hwa was a little agitated, and immediately pressed the flashlight to the ground and asked in a low voice.

"Yes!"

"Great! Damn! Finally able to do a big job!" Kim Jong and Yun, then he thought for a while, and sent an order: "Check the armed forces immediately, and launch an attack in 5 minutes! Zhang Genyong!"

"To!"

"I'll leave the devil's post to you, you must ensure concealment!"

"Yes!"
