Just when General Yamamoto Isoroku and General Yamaguchi were condolences to all the naval officers and soldiers on board the aircraft carrier fleet,

Japanese army homeland,

Tokyo suddenly called the Japanese embassies in London, Hong Kong Island, Singapore, and Manila and ordered them to immediately stop using the cipher machines and destroy them.

As for the Japanese expatriates, they were also ordered to evacuate quickly from various foreign areas.

After the Japanese army base camp started these abnormal operations,

The top military and political leaders of the United States, headed by President Roosevelt, also already knew that the Japanese army was secretly carrying out some combat deployments, possibly targeting them.

Feeling an inexplicable and uneasy sense of crisis, as if it was approaching, made them restless, so the top brass of the United States also quickly carried out some preventive actions and arrangements.

But they had never imagined that the Japanese aircraft carrier fleet would secretly lurk in the waters around Hawaii at a speed they could not imagine, and would soon conduct a large-scale air raid, bombing and sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.

Prepare to take away all the fleets deployed by the United States at Pearl Harbor.

Although the top brass of the United States were kept in the dark about the Japanese army's secretive lurking situation and were not aware of it.

But Major Kramer, the director of the transmission of magic intelligence, and Colonel Bratton, chief of the Far East Section of the Army Intelligence Agency;

However, due to a combination of circumstances, they inadvertently deciphered some urgent and important telegrams from the Japanese army, especially the telegrams from the Japanese base camp ordering diplomat Nomura to make some unusual actions.

In response to the message about the unusual behavior of the Japanese army, senior military officers such as Ingersoll, Deputy Minister of Operations, Wilson, Director of Intelligence Bureau, Noyes, Minister of Communications, etc. also walked into the conference room of the Chief of Operations one after another, preparing to hold a meeting.

The most urgent combat meeting was held to discuss the solution to this matter.

It's just that these people are not very vigilant. They did not come to this emergency combat meeting voluntarily and consciously. They even thought that this combat meeting was either a fuss over a molehill or simply not worth it.

However, under the stern urging of Kramer and Bratton, as well as the hoarse scolding of the Minister of War Stark, they all gathered to hold this war meeting.

At the combat meeting, Chief of Operations Stark wanted to know what everyone was thinking, so he decisively handed over the messages that their intelligence personnel had collected about the Japanese army's abnormal behavior to the various officers present, and circulated them in turn.

After everyone read the message about the unusual behavior of the Japanese army, their expressions all restrained their dissatisfaction and began to change to become more serious.

"From this abnormal message from the Japanese army, we can all see that the Japanese army is constantly deploying troops and generals, including their fleet, which has also made unexpected moves, so my personal guess is that the Japanese army has a lot of

We may launch a sudden sneak attack and land ashore at the port city on the other side of Nanyang!"

"How do you feel about my personal speculation?"

After Bratton scanned the crowd, he was also curious about what other people thought, so he first confessed his personal guesses, and then calmly waited for the next person's response.

"But why do I feel that these Japanese troops have another hidden conspiracy?"

"Such as the sneak attack on our Hawaii and Pearl Harbor!"

But regarding Bratton's speculation, Kramer raised another possibility and asked rhetorically.

"It's impossible to attack us secretly, right? When did the Japanese army have such courage? We are an industrial power! If they dare to challenge us, wouldn't they be seeking death?"

"Hey! We are not those Chinese troops with inferior weapons and equipment!"

Bratton retorted with a sneer.

He did not believe that the Japanese army would risk being defeated by them to sneak attack their troops.

"But our intelligence personnel collected evidence and clues from the Japanese mainland that the Japanese army would come to sneak attack and bomb our Pearl Harbor!"

Kramer continued to retort.

"You are right, so this time I need to discuss with everyone how we should deal with the Japanese army if it really attacks!"

Bratton was satisfied and nodded in response.

"What about the others? What do you think?"

After hearing this, Kramer also made a decision and would consider the other party's proposal.

As a result, Kramer and Bratton talked much more cordially.

But soon, Kramer's eyes turned to Minister of War Stark and the others.

"I don't think you need to worry so much. Aren't these Japanese troops still quite far away from our Hawaii? And we also have a lot of fleets with powerful combat capabilities, so even if the Japanese army sends all their aircraft carrier fleets here to carry out the

If we fight, I’m afraid we will all die here!”

"If we want to send a fleet for a sneak attack, our navy and air force will definitely be able to detect their traces!"

Secretary of War Stark shook his head and expressed his truest response.

"But all the senior officials on our president's side almost unanimously believe that the Japanese army is very likely to go to war with us!"

Kramer said.

"But there are many people who disagree!"

Secretary of War Stark retorted.

"Now do we need to notify all local senior officials about this matter?"

Kramer suggested.

"Yes! I feel the sooner the better, maybe something unexpected will happen!"

Bratton continued to respond.

After the words fell, everyone suddenly fell silent. Everyone was thinking about what the Japanese army would do next.

After a moment, Chief of Operations Stark also absent-mindedly stretched his hand to the phone.

Then he took a deep breath and quickly sent an urgent report to General Jin.

Because the current time in Washington is 9:15, while the time in Hawaii is 3:45 am, which is more than two hours before sunrise.

Soon, the sound of the phone came to Commander Kimmel's residence.

But the phone sound stopped very quickly.

"We'd better not talk to Commander Kimmel! I'll report this information to the president first, and then wait for his instructions to be implemented!"

Because the person who intercepted the phone call was Secretary of War Stark.

In response to this, all the Japanese officers looked at the Chief of Operations Stark with surprised expressions on their faces, waiting for his next words.

........

.......

However, Kramer ignored everyone's unusual reactions.

Because he has changed his mind and plans to go to Marshall immediately in person. He hopes to chat with General Marshall first and see what the other person thinks before deciding whether to continue calling Commander Kimmel.

........

.......

At this time, the 30 submarines, which were the Japanese task force's advance team, had already left the large submarine force and arrived at their designated destinations first, waiting for the next step of combat instructions.

After arriving at the destination, the commander of the advance formation was Vice Admiral Mitsumi Shimizu, commander of the Sixth Fleet, and he immediately assigned tasks to the leading submarine force...

When all submarines were in position, submarine No. 81 immediately reported to its formation that there were no ships anchored at the Lahana sighting area northwest of Oahu.

In other words, all US military fleets are already anchored in Pearl Harbor.

After receiving the report, the assault formation held a brief discussion and immediately reported the matter to General Yamamoto Isoroku.

Then they quickly obtained the consent of Commander Isoroku Yamamoto, allowing them to concentrate all attack forces on Pearl Harbor.

So the first team immediately dispatched all the mini-submarines they carried in batches.

And ordered these pocket submarines to sneak into Pearl Harbor on their own.
Chapter completed!
