"We're winning again!"

The news of the victory of the Chinese National Defense Force cannot be concealed from the media with a keen sense of smell, and there is no need to hide such news. Late at night on the 11th, the gossip spread first.

Early the next morning, amid the spontaneous sound of firecrackers, the news of victory was carried on the front pages of the major newspapers or on the side lines of additional issues.

"A naval battle broke out on the Diaoyu Islands, and the Chinese Navy won a big victory!"

Diaoyu Dao, a small island that has never been known to everyone, has since entered the eyes of hundreds of millions of Chinese people because of this victory.

"The Huaxia Navy is in the East China Sea, and the shame of Jiawu is washed away!"

The headlines of some newspapers are exaggerated, but the common people who have a particularly strong sense of national honor in these years recognize these things, and even let a few tabloids sell out of stock.

"Our navy has defeated the little devils and sunk all their ironclad ships!" Even similar exaggerated rhetoric on the streets and alleys often attracts many people's ears.

"Do you know what the three armies are? Army, Navy and Air Force! "There are often people who understand that they are selling their knowledge,

"You know, our Chinese army was one of the best in the world when it was in the vanguard army, and it beat the little devils and old hairy people. The Air Force is also a first-class croaker. If you haven't experienced the air battles in Nanjing, Wuhan and other places a few years ago, you should have heard about aircraft bombing everywhere in the world, right? But have you seen the little devil or the old man throwing a bomb on top of our heads? It's not that they can't get over, and our plane has already beaten them down. ”

After several years of radio training, many people can talk about the victories of the vanguard army over the years.

"It's a pity that our Huaxia Navy has never been able to get on the table!" But all these people who can boast on the street have the potential of storytellers and know how to suppress the way, "Since the Opium War, our China has been bombed open and the sea has fallen, and this navy has not been able to support it." When we lost in Beiyang Jiawu, we lost money to this little Oriental devil. The little devils got this money and sucked the blood of the Beiyang and Nanyang fleets dry, so that they achieved their reputation as a naval power in the world. ”

Nowadays, there is very little need for the intelligence officers of the vanguard army to go around in person, and verbally agitate the people, but Meng Xiang is well aware of the power of these street rumors, and the spread of these gossip is no less than that of the Internet in later generations. For this reason, behind them, there are still all kinds of guidance from the intelligence department, in addition to the full-time non-staff personnel who are paid for a fee, and even some of the more eye-catching content is compiled from the experts of the intelligence department, so that some of the remarks are organized and the direction is clearer.

"The navy of the little devils is now one of the best in the world, and even England and the United States can defeat it. If it weren't for the little devil's navy, our army would not only be able to drive the little devil's army into the sea, but also directly hit the little devil's hometown and take revenge completely! ”

"What a pity!" Someone from the bystanders picked it up.

"Well, though. See, the little devil's Musashi has sunk us! The boaster was even more proud.

Ordinary people may not know what the concept of sinking the Musashi is, but they know that the Chinese Navy also defeated the Japanese Navy for a while.

In this way, the Huaxia Navy is no longer a toy in the pond, but has become a real weapon of the country.

Since the scale of the Huaxia Navy has continued to expand, the huge expenditure of the Huaxia Navy, which has done nothing, has become one aspect of criticism from many people. If it weren't for a victory in Vladivostok, which eased the pressure a little, I am afraid that the spearhead pointed at the navy would probably disrupt all of Meng Xiang's calculations.

The navy's battle this time is also a move for Meng Xiang to choose to eliminate some internal contradictions, lest many people stare at the fat of astronomical military spending and constantly want to take food.

With the special fund subsidy for people's livelihood and charitable projects, military spending began to ask for money from the state treasury.

Meng Xiang also danced the baton of finance, and some of the financial interests also became the bait thrown out by Meng Xiang, who had no financial pressure, and became a game game for other forces to fight each other, limiting some internal contradictions to this.

The victory in this naval battle made the navy no longer a waste in some people's population, and even added a layer of fishing nets to the sight of some people's ambitions, cutting off some greedy thoughts.

There are fewer people who want to fight the navy, but there is an extra group of radicals who are encouraged by victory to recover the islands.

Some anxious legislators even proposed again in the next day's parliament that they should recover Taiwan and Hainan Island.

In the past, there were proposals from the Diet of Parliamentarians, but the powerful Japanese Navy was on everyone's minds. Previous proposals have ended in a wrangling of arguments.

Now that such a victory is ahead, the recovery of Taiwan and Hainan has become the mainstream call.

"Before we find out how Japan and the United States react to this naval war, we should not start the war to seize the island!" Jiang Baili was worried that Meng Xiang was hot-headed, so he came to persuade him.

Fan Chong and other high-ranking military officials are also unanimously cautious.

Unlike the people's optimism about the war, many high-ranking military officials knew that the losses in this operation were not a very painful thing for the overall strength of the Japanese Navy. And the people who participated in the operation this time were already nearly half of the elite of the Chinese Navy.

In other words, at this time, the talents of the Chinese Navy could only form more than two such fleets, and three of them were barely enough.

Four Dreadnought-class battleships and eight aircraft carriers, as well as the corresponding formation ships, simply did not have enough skilled manpower to control them. It's okay to start exercising and patrolling, but for war, I'm afraid it's just a group of rookies.

For this naval battle, the fleets of Nanyang and Vladivostok were transferred some of the elite. This is also a reason why the Huaxia Navy won relatively easily this time, and this is also a reason why Meng Xiang felt sorry for those sacrifices.

This is also one of the reasons why after winning this game, the Japanese still don't worry too much about the Huaxia Navy.

In the early hours of this morning, news had already arrived from the spies on the Japanese side, and the Japanese top brass was very annoyed by the great defeat in the naval battle, and they were quite engaged in a fight for this. However, in the eyes of the still proud Japanese navy, this victory was nothing more than the luck of Huaxia, and it was also the reason why Koga Mine, which had already sunk to the bottom of the sea with the Musashi, was a light enemy.

He's dead anyway, and some hat is more appropriate to snap directly on top of his head.

The Chinese Navy was not to be overlooked, but it was not yet to the point where the Japanese felt a great threat.

"According to the intelligence we have gathered from various sources, although the number of the Chinese navy exceeds 100,000, there are very few people who can really go out to fight abroad. Although there are many students, it will take at least three years for them to grow up. By that time, we may have defeated the Americans and ruled most of the Pacific. Even Yamamoto Isoroku, who had always been shrewd, did not take the Kagic Navy, which had achieved this victory, in his eyes.

"Besides, even if China's industry develops rapidly, it will take several years to provide adequate logistics services and maintenance for many warships." Yamamoto didn't know the metamorphosis repair ability of the base, and pointed out the most important point that reassured the Japanese.

Japan, a veteran naval power, naturally knows the importance of logistics and maintenance systems, which are not perfect, not to mention long-distance combat across the ocean, and even daily training and maintenance are difficult.

In later generations, many third-rate countries, even if they bought advanced German and Soviet Russian submarines, they were rusted in ports.

Under the exposure of Meng Xiang's consciousness, not only the Japanese, but even other countries unconsciously lowered the threat level of the Huaxia Navy because of the inadequacy of the logistics system of the Huaxia Navy.

In short, the top of the head of the Huaxia Navy has always been labeled as immature, which can only arouse the vigilance of the Japanese, but not make them panic.

"There are many difficulties in landing on the island, and you need to be cautious!" Chen Shaokuan also said.

At this time the example of the Germans was placed there.

The Germans had already stormed London, but they had not made much progress there.

The English Channel, which was constantly too wide, was already restricting the replenishment of ammunition and personnel in logistics, which gave the Germans a headache. Huaxia faces a Taiwan Strait or the Leizhou Strait, which is also like a moat.

"If we go to recover Taiwan now, I'm afraid that the Japanese Navy will be stimulated to send the main force to eliminate the hidden dangers in the rear!" Although Fan is not proficient in the navy, this general trend can still be seen clearly.

Taiwan not only provided rice, subtropical crops, and coal to the Japanese, but also guarded the transportation routes from the South Seas to the main island of Japan.

The same is true of Hainan Island, which can be held hostage in the South China Sea.

Not to mention the difficulties of landing on the island, even if the landing was successful, it would be a loss strategically and a disaster for the Americans.

The spies not only sent the reaction of the Japanese high-level, but also the reaction of the American high-level to Meng Xiang.

Although the Americans do not take the Chinese Navy too seriously, they seem to see a hope of pushing the Chinese Navy out as cannon fodder. Washington is deliberating a plan to send personnel to support the Chinese Navy, help it train talents, and improve its logistics system, and has put forward a package of aid to make the Chinese Navy a containment force that threatens Japan's main islands and supply lines.

"We don't mind eating the sugar coating, don't let this kind of assistance be in vain." Meng Xiang had already made a conclusion in his heart, "However, we still need to take the opportunity to sell a new Musashi battleship to Little Japan, in addition to making up for the little devil's worries about Huaxia, I also need to send the shells back to the Americans." ”
