Liu Feiyang had no idea about the troubles of the fifty-sixth deputy officer Yamamoto and the chief of naval affairs, Rear Admiral Narumi Inoue. However, as he set up stalls in Changsha to give away free food and clothing, more and more poor people came to the city.

When beggars and refugees came to pick it up, it boosted the reputation of his grocery store.

However, as the reputation of his grocery store gradually grew, Liu Feiyang of course did not continue here, but handed it over to his new direct officer Li Guancai to handle it.

As for himself, he was thinking about how to get close to Ding Xiaoxin.

In the past few days, Liu Feiyang had been watching Ding Xiaoxin from a distance, observing his situation.

From his observations, he felt that Ding Xiaoxin was a patriotic student. He often participated in anti-Japanese demonstrations with his classmates and made donations to support the national army in the city and defend the city against the enemy.

The Japanese army may attack anytime and anywhere.

.......

Just when Liu Feiyang was thinking about how to deal with his contact with Ding Xiaoxin,

The Japanese naval force is also holding an emergency combat meeting.

Navy Minister Nagano Shushen and Navy Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumasa are also having an urgent meeting.

"Are you really planning to promote Yamamoto, the 56th Lieutenant Commander, to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Navy's Combined Fleet?"

"Does he personally know this decision?"

As soon as the two met and sat down in the meeting room of the Admiralty Ministry, Admiralty Nagano Shushen immediately asked.

"Yes, I have made proposals to His Majesty and my cabinet members. Now Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro is ready to step down, and I will take his place!"

"And you also know very well that if a talent like him is only placed on the side of the army, including the pure aviation force, it will be overqualified! He is a naval genius that our empire only encounters once in a century. I believe that the navy will be better than him.

Under his leadership, it will develop even better, especially now during the war, there is an even greater need for geniuses like him to command the combined forces of our empire!"

"As for the other commanders of the combined fleet, you are very clear about their talent selection capabilities and performance. Only the performance and capabilities of the fifty-sixth commander Yamamoto are just a little better!"

"So as soon as this decision was made, both Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro, who was not very close to me, and His Majesty all agreed unanimously, and of course His Highness the Prince also agreed!"

"That's why I came to you in such a hurry today to discuss this matter. I want to transfer him from the aviation force back to our joint wing as soon as possible, especially now that I have heard that Liu Feiyang has not yet

He was killed in Wuhan, and he also wiped out all the 13th Gunboat Team of our Navy in the Xiangjiang River!"

"So I'm very angry about this matter, and I also want our Navy to launch a retaliatory counterattack, but we haven't found out where that damn Liu Feiyang is lurking, otherwise I would even

We have launched an attack on all the naval fleets to annihilate this Liu Feiyang!"

"He has severely damaged our navy many times one after another. In the past, the navy suffered heavy losses because of its large number of carrier-based aircraft. This time, it even destroyed a gunboat fleet. If our navy continues to let it go,

If Liu Feiyang carries out such lawless sneak attacks and bombings, I am afraid that in the future, he will dare to sneak attack and bombard our aircraft carrier fleet, or other larger fleets!"

"So I don't like this matter at all. Liu Feiyang must be eradicated as soon as possible, and Yamamoto, the 56th commander, must be transferred back to our joint wing immediately to serve as the new commander!

"

"Because our future maritime opponent is very likely to be from the United States, so we must have a genius to command our joint wing, and this genius is very familiar with the development of the navy on the American side.

!”

"So Yamamoto, the 56th Vice-Commander, is the new commander of the joint wing that I have been thinking about for a long time!"

In response to Admiral Nagano Shushen's inquiry, Marine Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumasa also responded very calmly.

"I don't have any objections at all. I am also very optimistic about the fifty-sixth Vice-Commander Yamamoto. If our Majesty hadn't sent him out to the country on the other side of China to command the newly formed new aviation force, he would have been here.

If we had to deal with Liu Feiyang’s flying force who is elusive and likes to carry out sneak attacks, he would have returned to our Navy Department long ago, and he would have taken up important positions long ago!”

"But this time, Your Majesty and you have both agreed that if he serves as the new commander of the joint wing, I will also give my full support, so I am willing to jointly send a telegram to persuade him to return to our navy.

of!"

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister of the Sea!"

When Marine Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumasa finished speaking, Navy Minister Nagano Shushen also immediately spoke in agreement.

"Well! Thank you, Nagano-kun!"

After hearing this, Prime Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi was also very happy and grateful, and responded.

"By the way, what do you think we should do now to retaliate against Liu Feiyang's troops? You must know where his flying troops are in the Xiangjiang River, and they destroyed all our 13th gunboat fleet. This impact

It's still relatively big, especially in our naval unit.

So I think that in order to stabilize the morale of the military and let the officers and soldiers of the navy, including those foreigners who are watching the show, know that our Imperial Navy is not a wimp, nor is it unable to counterattack this elusive Liu Feiyang's command, so I feel that we must immediately

Just fight back!"

"Even if we now have no way to find Liu Feiyang's stronghold to carry out devastating retaliation against him and his flying troops, we can retaliate against those Chinese troops. For example, the current battle in Changsha is similar.

It's about to break out, so I think we can re-send the fleet into the waters around Changsha to retaliate!"

"Although our aircraft carrier fleet cannot enter the Xiangjiang River in Changsha, it does not mean that our carrier-based aircraft fleet and our gunboat fleet cannot enter!"

"So I plan to carry out all-weather bombing attacks by carrier-based aircraft groups, including adding four naval gun fleets to bombard the Chinese Army's positions and residents' residences in Changsha. In short, I must make these Chinese Army pay a heavy price

, come and clean up the 13th Fleet of our Imperial Navy that was completely annihilated by Liu Feiyang’s command!”

After Marine Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumasa expressed his gratitude, Navy Minister Nagano Shushen expressed his inner thoughts.

"I am happy to support your proposal, and I very much agree with it! And I have also issued an order to counterattack. I believe that our naval force has now dispatched a gunboat fleet and is heading to the Changsha area where the China Army is holding firm.

The Xiangjiang River was bombarded with artillery bombardments by the Chinese Army and the Chinese residential areas there!"

"In short, in this counterattack and retaliation operation, I asked the Navy Department to carry out an all-out attack. Even if it cannot severely damage the Chinese army, it will kill all the Chinese residents near the sea.

It’s going to be terrible!”

"We must kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and let Liu Feiyang know that even if we can't find your base camp, it doesn't mean we can't bully other weak Chinese people and the Chinese army!"

"Retaliation and counterattack operations must be carried out anyway, and they will definitely succeed!"

When Navy Minister Nagano Shushen proposed to avenge the 13th Gunboat Fleet that was bombed and sunk by Liu Feiyang's flying force, Marine Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumasa agreed without thinking.

"That's good! Then I'll wait and see the revenge and counterattack this time!"

After hearing this, Navy Minister Nagano Shushen was also very grateful to Marine Minister Yoneuchi Mitsumadichi.
