Chapter 589 Shocked Americans

After two destroyers and three gunboats left the dock, Li Yunlong ordered the US military contact officer Douglas to immediately send a report to the US military liaison officer, and Matsutake Island successfully took him to the island. At the same time, he ordered the planes at the airport to be safe to prevent the arrival of the Japanese fleet from being attacked. At the same time, he ordered the battlefield to be quickly cleaned up and wait for the arrival of the Japanese fleet.

In fact, Li Yunlong did not expect that Ye Heshimoto, who was fleeing in a panic, led the defeated generals and had no intention of staying in Songzhu Island for a long time. When he received a report of attack on Songzhu Island, before he could recover, bad news followed one after another and the dock was violently attacked. The telegram said that a large number of US Army troops appeared on the island, and all communications were interrupted.

Nokawa Shigemoto was shocked. He believed that a US fleet carried army troops to attack Songzhu Island. The situation was so critical that Yekawa Shigemoto decisively ordered to bypass Songzhu Island and advance to the Malay Peninsula at full speed. Later, a US aircraft carrier battle group pursued, and Songzhu Island was attacked again was estimated to be in danger. At present, Songzhu Island may be occupied? Yekawa Shigemoto decided to quickly pass through the waters of the Nicobar Islands. He was worried that the Chinese and Japanese fleets bypassed Songzhu Island and did not encounter the US Navy's intercepting fleet.

Yehe Shigemoto made a misjudgment, which caused Li Yunlong and his subordinates to have a false alarm. At about noon, the US military contact officer Douglas arrived at the pier and saw an unpleasant smell of burnt smell floating everywhere on the pier and a bunch of burnt human-shaped skeletons on the ground of the pier. While he was shocked, he was almost unable to believe that this was the fact!

"General Li! I admire you and your subordinates. You can be called devil troops. You have eliminated a Japanese brigade in such a short time and successfully occupied Songzhu Island. At present, you are the only Marine in the world that is unparalleled. Seeing that it is true, I immediately reported to General MacArthur that Songzhu Island was completely captured and all Japanese fighter planes were captured!" Douglaser said and gave a thumbs up!

Li Yunlongxiang pretended to be sad and said: "The ancients said that if one thousand enemies were killed, he would lose 800 of them, and my subordinates also lost more than 200 people. You should know that they are excellent soldiers who have been trained for many years!" Li Yunlong had to lie. In fact, his subordinates only suffered more than a dozen casualties, transported 200 people who captured Japanese ships, and he was included in the list of deaths!

Douglas said without any doubt: "Commander Li, losses are inevitable. There is a great risk in this sneak attack on Songzhu Island. Your troops have achieved such a record and can be regarded as a classic ocean cross-island combat in military history. In the afternoon, Commander MacArthur will lead the aircraft carrier fleet to Songzhu Island. According to the British reconnaissance submarine report, no remnants of the Japanese fleet were found near Songzhu Island."

Li Yunlong said: "Obviously, the commander of the Japanese fleet received a telegram about the attack on Songzhu Island. The Japanese fleet flew around Songzhu Island!" "Yes! The Japanese army judged that our army had attacked Songzhu Island and sent a sneak attack fleet, so the Japanese army could not come again. It is estimated that they have bypassed Songzhu Island now!"

Let us cross the ocean and aim at the headquarters of the First Army of the Mandalay Expeditionary Force in Myanmar. The new attack is about to begin. The commander and Su Yu are studying the enemy situation. At this time, a combat staff member urgently reported: "Report to the military officer! The encrypted telegram was sent from the Nicobar Islands of the Indian Ocean!"

When Tan Zhen heard this, he hurriedly followed the telecommunications officer into the telecommunications room. After a while, Tan Zhen came out of the telecommunications room and ordered the commander of the military headquarters to be called. The commander of the military headquarters quickly entered the military headquarters. Tan Zhen said: "A few days ago, 300 people arrived in Mandalay. You can draw a guard battalion and send these personnel to Delai immediately. After completing the escort mission, your first battalion will stay in Delai and take care of the security work."

The guard commander was a little confused. Tan Zhen could not let him think too much and said, "What do you want to know? Execute the order immediately!" The guard commander saluted a military salute and ran away. Seeing the questioning gaze of Chief of Staff Su Yu, Tan Zhen smiled and said, "Chief of Staff, this matter was arranged by Deputy Commander Mu himself. At present, I cannot disclose it to you and please understand!"

The Marine Corps went on a secret expedition, but the outside world did not know. Not long ago, Mu Yaping sent a special secret security to Tan Zhen, informing a group of naval personnel that had arrived in Mandalay, and at the same time informing Li Yunlong of his mission, asking him to control Delai in the Rakan Sea of ​​Myanmar and include it in the military restricted area. At the same time, after receiving the telegram, the naval personnel arriving in Mandalay were immediately sent to Delai.

Mu Yaping's intention was very obvious, which was to temporarily open a secret military port in Delai, and temporarily place the captured warships there, and at the same time, naval personnel were stationed in Delai. On the one hand, they simply modified Japanese warships and carried out training at the same time. After all, Qinghai Lake is not a real ocean. It is urgent to train a group of qualified naval talents as soon as possible.

The battle traces of the Nicobar Islands, Songzhu Island Pier, have been cleared. When the sun hangs on the sea to the west, Commander MacArthur led two aircraft carrier battle groups to the sea outside Songzhu Island Pier. The vast fleet began to break down. Li Yunlong and the captain Zhan Kai, contact officer Douglas stood on the dock to welcome him.

At this time, the remnants of the Japanese army on the island had been cleared. It was very surprising that most of the Japanese soldiers who were ready to die were desperate and chose to commit suicide. Soon a destroyer leaned on the dock, and Commander MacArthur walked down the spinning ladder with a thunderous spirit. After Li Yunlong saw the ceremony, MacArthur came up and hugged: "I brave and fearless warriors, I congratulate you. Thank God for bringing us good luck. I want to report to your commander and ask for your merits. Commander Li and his heroic subordinates have created a miracle of combat in the Ocean Shea Island!"

Li Yunlong said modestly: "The general has won the award because most of our soldiers have a deep hatred for the Japanese army. They themselves or their relatives have suffered slaughter and humiliation from the Japanese army. Therefore, their bravery and spirit of sacrifice in fighting against Japan come from this aspect." MacArthur agreed: "Japan is a beast country and must erase this country from the earth. I am now very confident to defeat the Japanese Navy on the ocean." Obviously, MacArthur had the confidence in this naval battle.

Li Yunlong said: "General, what is our next task?" MacArthur said: "At present, you are temporarily resting on the island, and a new combat plan will be issued soon, so don't worry." MacArthur was very shocked at Li Yunlong's volunteering and asked for battle. This would never happen in the US military. Even after the combat mission was issued, his commander would emphasize various difficulties. If the task was too dangerous, the subordinate commander would refuse.

MacArthur seemed to have truly met the Chinese people for the first time, and at the same time, it suddenly realized in its subconscious that China would be a powerful opponent in the future. At this time, a combat staff member reported: "Your Excellency Commander, call from Mumbai, and the transport fleet will arrive in three days. What instructions do you have?" "Order the destroyer to search closely for nearby areas to prevent Japanese submarines from attacking them!"

MacArthur responded: "Commander Li, you have seized 100 Japanese fighter jets intact. It is amazing. We will use Songzhu Island Airport and soon transport a engineering force. The airport is to be expanded. We will enter long-range heavy bombers. In addition, a US Air Force wing will also enter to serve as the protection of the aircraft carrier fleet! We will use the Nicobar Islands as a springboard to counterattack the Japanese army in the South China Sea!" Then MacArthur began to roam Li Yunlong and his generals to command such a devilish force to fight. MacArthur felt that he would definitely create a military miracle.

In fact, MacArthur did not inform him of the real situation. He wiped out two aircraft carriers of the Japanese Indian Ocean Fleet and occupied the Nicobar Islands. The purpose of the US Navy's battle was successfully achieved, and at the lowest cost. Therefore, the US Pentagon wanted to implement the next combat plan, which was to land on the Malay Peninsula.

The opening of the second battlefield is the highlight of the US-British Allied Forces. Considering the huge interests of the South China Sea, the British would not miss this opportunity even if they were old. Of course, when landing on the Malay Peninsula, they had to go through a lot of preparations. At least, long-range bombers were needed to be stationed on Songzhu Island, destroy the Japanese shore-based aircraft, and eliminate the threat of Japanese shore-based aircraft to the aircraft carrier fleet. At the same time, the US landing forces had to gather in the Nicobar Islands. MacArthur would not tell Li Yunlong about these situations.

Li Yunlong pondered for a moment and said, "General, I want to send several teams to secretly sneak into the Malay Peninsula to harass the Japanese army?" In fact, Li Yunlong did not mean that. He must take advantage of the favorable opportunity to hunt more Japanese warships, and preparing in advance is the top priority. MacArthur was overjoyed when he saw Li Yunlong's desire to fight ** and said, "Okay! I agree that you will send a small number of troops to sneak into the Malay Peninsula. I will dispatch 10 submarines to transport weapons, ammunition and supplies to your department!"

As a professional soldier, Nike Arthur saw that the Marine Corps built by China had such strong combat effectiveness, and his inner identity was anxious. Based on the characteristics of the Chinese Marine Corps, it was recommended that the US Department of Defense immediately start to form a marine force. The next step for the US military to move towards combat will form a normal state.

The experienced MacArthur, based on the future military development, believes that the Marine Combat Force will be an indispensable and even a decisive force in the ocean. In the reported report, he repeatedly emphasized the Chinese's advanced military ideas, and he was worried that he would not be left behind by the Chinese. Although China's navy is now poor, judging from the measures to build a marine force in China, China's political team has obviously had a basket of plans to rapidly develop the navy.

Especially MacArthur listed the naval base of China's political fu in Qinghai Lake. He emphasized that China currently does not have large surface ships, but he believes that ships are trivial matters. The key is that China is now focusing on cultivating naval personnel. Perhaps in the near future, the Chinese navy will quickly catch up. He advocated that the United States should curb the development of the Chinese navy and that the United States has interests above everything else.

Not to mention that MacArthur has a very strategic vision, he discovered China's attempt to develop its navy through China's Marine Corps. But he didn't expect how the Chinese developed their navy quickly. A few years later, when the Americans discovered that the Chinese navy suddenly formed a scale, it was too late to regret it.

That night, the captain Zhan Kai led three teams to the Malay Peninsula on US submarines. Before leaving, Li Yunlong instructed: "Attacking the Japanese army is not the main purpose. You must always seize opportunities and capture Japanese warships. If we can capture the Japanese army's destruction and frigate, that is the most ideal. As for battleships, cruisers are not listed as the key points, do you understand?"

"It's the commander! Ensure that the mission is completed, you can listen to the good news!" At midnight, the three teams of land soldiers embarked on a mysterious journey!
