It is the west coast of Dongdu Bay, the southern suburbs of the Eastern Imperial Capital, and the naval base camp.

When the secretary on duty brought in the supper, it was almost dawn. Tian Shi stayed all night and didn't receive any news, but no news is the best news.

Is there a problem with the intelligence, or is it worrying too much?

While eating, Tian Shidu was still meditating.

Tian Shi was not concerned about the aircraft carrier that had been heavily damaged and had not yet been repaired, but the white stop war that went to Puzhou Port before this and disappeared with the aircraft carrier!

Back to the local area of Saoyi, in fact, it was only a few days ago that Tian Shi got reliable news.

At the beginning, it was Bai Zhizhan who commanded the Third Air Task Force in the Guia, because just before that, Liu Xiangbin had already gone to Foot Island. Bai Zhizhan went directly to the port of Thornzhou, where he boarded the "Imperial Capital" and secretly replaced Liu Xiangbin, who was a wreck.

Now, what happened before is clear.

Tian Shi was very annoyed, and even blamed himself very much, because as early as when the Fifth Air Force was destroyed, he should have guessed that the commander of the Third Air Task Force was definitely not Liu Xiangbin. It's not just a matter of ability, Liu Xiangbin simply doesn't have the courage to lead the fleet into the West and East at all.

With a little mental thought, you can guess that it is a white stop.

This bold style of play is clearly the style of Bai Zhizhan!

The Liangxia fleet, which was fighting in the Yanhai Sea, was actually too cautious on the 26th, or not too aggressive, and this was obviously Liu Xiangzhen's style.

If Bai Zhizhan is in the Yanhai, even if only one aircraft carrier can be mobilized, it will be a different scene.

It's a pity that at that time, even Tian Shi didn't think about this, but took it for granted that Bai Zhizhan had to obey Liu Xiangzhen's command.

Liu Xiangzhen's uncle Liu Changxun sat in the position of commander-in-chief of the navy, and He Yongxing, who took refuge in Bai Zhizhan, had no real power, so at the level of operational command, Liu Xiangzhen must have occupied the initiative, and Bai Zhizhan was in a secondary position. To put it simply, it is similar to the relationship between Lanyun and Yamaguchi.

In addition, Liu Xiangzhen and Bai Zhizhan were the key research objects of the Narrow Yi Navy before the war.

To say, Tian Shi has always regarded these two people as idols and opponents.

In the past few years, Tian Shi has read all the information he can find about Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen, and has repeatedly applied to serve as a naval attache in the Saoyi Imperial Kingdom. It's a pity that when he still has time, he is not famous enough. When he got the weight of Takano and had enough fame, he didn't have time. It is precisely because of this that he has never been to the Liangxia Empire, not even a tourist.

This is also Tian Shi's biggest regret.

In the Narrow Navy, there is definitely no one who knows Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen better than Tian Shi.

In fact, Tian Shi's ability to enter Gao Ye's eyes is related to the study of these two people.

In the war game deduction three years ago, Gao Ye raised a question related to Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen, which is actually not very profound. It is the difference between the two when they command the fleet to fight, and what kind of impact this difference will have on the outcome of the decisive battle of the fleet.

Gao Ye didn't ask the staff officer to answer in detail, but just asked everyone to share their opinions.

As a result, none of the staff officers of the permanent fleet command could answer, or rather none of them gave valuable insights.

When Takano was furious, Tian Shi also seized the opportunity.

According to Tian Shi's understanding, there is actually a significant difference between these two people.

To put it simply, Liu Xiangzhen is conservative, and Bai Zhizhan is more aggressive.

Although both of them are very powerful, especially commanding aircraft carrier operations, they are definitely first-class today, but if you really want Tian Shi to choose one as an opponent, it will definitely not stop the war in vain.

The aircraft carrier itself is an offensive platform, and its value is reflected in the attack, or in other words, only through the offensive can the value of the aircraft carrier be brought into play. Even if you need to defend at the strategic level, in tactical actions, you must be aggressive and not passively defensive.

Besides, the navy is an offensive branch of the armed forces by nature, and all the strategic and tactical treatises related to the navy without exception advocate offense. Historically, all powerful navies have relied on offense to write brilliant achievements, and no navy has relied on defense to dominate the four seas.

In the hands of an enterprising general like Bai Zhizhan, the aircraft carrier is the hegemon of the sea.

In Liu Xiangzhen's hands?

At most, it is just a weapon that can defeat the enemy, far from reaching the level of the hegemon.

It's not that Tian Shi looks down on Liu Xiangzhen, after all, Tian Shi is not sure to defeat Liu Xiangzhen, but in Tian Shi's view, Liu Xiang can't bring the value of the aircraft carrier to the limit.

The subsequent battles also happened to prove Tian Shi's judgment.

In the battle of Yanhai, Liu Xiangzhen had four fleet aircraft carriers, and even if he finally defeated the mobile fleet, he also suffered huge losses. In the West-East Gaze, the White Stop War annihilated almost the entire permanent fleet with two fleet carriers, and suffered no losses of its own. The key point is that during this period, he also engaged the evenly matched Fifth Air Force, and completely annihilated the Fifth Air Force with only two waves of attacks.

It is precisely because of this that Tian Shi has always paid close attention to the White Stop War.

When he received the news that Bai Zhizhan had gone to Puzhou, Tian Shi had a very bad premonition that something very bad was going to happen.

Of course, it's a bit of a trick to say that.

Before that, Tian Shi knew that the "Hengjiang" had already left Chengjiang Port, and the floating dock of the home fleet had also departed from Matsukasu Port.

Combined with this information, it is not difficult to speculate that Bai Zhizhan went to Puzhou Port to be in charge of the maintenance work of the "Hengjiang".

That's true, that's weird!

A general who has just won a battle and is sent to repair an aircraft carrier!?

Liang Xiajun really wants to arrange it like this, Tian Shi will wake up laughing when he falls asleep.

At that time, Tian Shi felt that Bai Zhizhan was likely to go to Puzhou to cover up, and the Liang Xia Navy must have made other arrangements, but it was not involved with the "Hengjiang".

This is also normal, because Tian Shi knew that the "Yokoe" had been badly damaged.

It cannot be repaired in Chengjiang Port, and it may not be repaired quickly when it arrives at Puzhou Port.

At that time, the battle report of the "sinking of the 'Yokoe'" was sent back by Genda, and it was also mentioned that it was the credit of Yuyong, although it was finally proved that the sunken "Linghe" and the "Yokoe" attacked by Yuei to the death did not sink, but it is certain that the "Yokoe" must have suffered heavy damage.

According to common sense, this aircraft carrier must have to lie in the dock for several months.

Even if it can barely sail, it is not combat-capable, and there are many potential safety hazards, even if the aircraft carrier is not considered, it cannot be joked about more than 2,000 officers and men.

According to Tian Shi's judgment, Bai Zhizhan was mostly using this as a cover, and then diverted to Jeshima.

He was responsible for directing the shore-based air force over there to bomb the Sagi mainland and prepare for the combat operation of the landing on the Sagi mainland.

Although Jedo is not an aircraft carrier, and infrastructure such as roads and ports is not complete, it is close enough to the mainland of Sagi and large enough to build enough airfields. If the Liang Xia Empire is going to attack the Sayi mainland in the near future, it will need to make full use of this island.

In addition, unless Shuangma Island is captured, Jido Island is also an ideal starting point for the landing force. In one case, the Sakuyi army did not know anything about the situation on the other side of Jeshima.

It's just that now it seems that Bai Zhizhan did not go to Jedo at all, but on the "Hengjiang"!

Where the hell is that damn aircraft carrier!?
