Major General Sasaki who reaped the consequences

Five hours later, all the ships of the Chinese Navy, under the order of Commander Chen Shaokuan, lifted anchor, and with puffs of black smoke rushing into the sky, a combat order from the Nanjing Frontline Command Headquarters was transmitted to the ears of two people through the mouths of the communications staff officers.

"Commander, political commissar, the latest operational order of the front command: all units of the Navy, in accordance with the original order, continue to set off and target the Japanese detachment at the sea port. At that time, all the air forces of the 1st Air Force Division will cooperate with your unit. I hope that under the cover of the 1st Air Division, your unit will be able to find favorable fighters, make timely sorties, win the first victory since the formation of the Chinese Navy, completely annihilate and capture all the Japanese detachments docked at the Shanghai Military Port, so as to increase the military strength of our Navy..."

"In addition, the front-line command forwarded a letter of good news that the air force unit had just obtained... After an hour-long air battle, two fighter regiments of the 1st Air Force Division and two fighter groups of the 2nd Air Force Division, totaling 96 fighters. With the cooperation of ground anti-aircraft firepower, it successfully annihilated all the carrier-based combat aircraft of the Japanese detachment and achieved an unprecedented victory... So, in the next battle, the Japanese detachment will lose all its air power...", the communications staff officer reported excitedly....

In the face of this exciting news, political commissar Zhang Aiping was the first to speak: "Commander-in-Chief Liu really deserves to be the god of war of our army, and in the blink of an eye, he used the air force unit that had just been formed for less than a year to wipe out all the two aviation wings of the Guards Aviation Division, which was invincible in the Japanese army....good, good..."

Just when political commissar Zhang Aiping was excitedly lamenting another great victory of Zhang Hongguo's air force. Chen Shaokuan, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, is also full of emotion in his heart.

Of course, his emotion is not limited to the victory of the Air Force, but the layout of the entire battlefield by Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua....

"Political Commissar, Commander-in-Chief Liu's move is really wonderful....You see, first of all, taking advantage of the Japanese air force's love for the enemy and the psychology of continuing to retaliate, set up a suspicious formation, attract the Japanese aircraft group to attack, and then concentrate all the air forces to annihilate all the air forces of the Japanese detachment in one fell swoop."

"Second, the loss of air power by the Japanese detachment is like losing an arm, and in the face of the air attack of our 1st Air Division, if it does not escape, it will only be beaten. Third, with the support of the 1st Air Division, it was only a matter of time before the Japanese detachment was completely annihilated -- after all, no matter how strong the armor of a warship was, it could not withstand the continuous bombardment of bombs. When the time comes, our naval units will attack in a timely manner, and although they will not play a big role, there will still be no problem in picking up some of the fish that have slipped through the net left by the 1st Air Division..."

However, just after his sigh fell. After carefully reading the battle order in his hand again, a trace of doubt appeared on his face.

"Lao Chen, is there anything wrong with the order?" Zhang Aiping, who had a keen sense of smell, immediately noticed the change in Chen Shaokuan's face and asked.

"Well, look at this sentence...."Chen Shaokuan nodded, pointed to the content of the telegram in his hand, and continued to speak...

"With Commander-in-Chief Liu's deployment, there is absolutely no problem in completely annihilating the Japanese detachment....However, in this order, Commander-in-Chief Liu clearly explained to our naval forces that they should capture the Japanese detachment as much as possible, so as to nourish the war and enhance their own strength....However, with the temperament of the Japanese soldiers, how could it be possible to capture their detachment?"

Seeing the puzzled partner in front of him, he thought of Liu Hua's consistent style of using soldiers. Political Commissar Zhang Aiping's face immediately showed a mysterious smile, and then he spoke.

"Lao Chen, this question, I think we don't have to think about it at all now...."...,"You see, the telegram also said, let us rush to the Haidean Port, wait and see what happens, and join the battle at the right time." I believe that with Commander-in-Chief Liu's usual style of employing troops, since he said such a thing, there must be a definite reason. As for why it was not said in the middle of the telegram, I don't know. However, as long as we get to the port of Naval Naval Aid in time, we will certainly be able to find out the exact reason for this...."

In the brightly lit military port of Shanghai, the Japanese command received the bad news that all the sortie carrier-based aircraft had been destroyed. The whole military port began to become chaotic...

Rear Admiral Sasaki, who experienced the sinking of the Kaga heavy aircraft carrier by the Chinese Air Force, clearly knows that the squadron, no matter when, will seize every opportunity that can be used to give his opponent a fatal blow.

And now, all carrier-based aircraft have been destroyed, resulting in the loss of the only air power that the entire detachment can rely on. Even if it is not clear to himself now, in the air battle over Nanjing, the empire paid the two most elite air wings of the Guards Aviation Division, and how much success was achieved, and whether the Chinese Air Force still had the strength to launch an air attack on its own fleet.

However, Major General Sasaki, who had experienced one defeat, did not have the guts to gamble again.

As a result, as soon as he received the news of the defeat of the Air Force, Rear Admiral Sasaki issued an order to the entire detachment to immediately lift anchor, temporarily leave the military port, and withdraw from the combat range of the Chinese Air Force.

However, what made Major General Sasaki feel desperate was that his order was issued, and the specific execution effect made him cry bitterly.

This detachment that rushed to China was equipped with the latest destroyers and cruisers of the latest type, which had just been launched by the Japanese army. However, because this fleet has served as a defense of Japan's coastal waters since its inception, it has not participated in naval battles in the true sense of the word. Therefore, the entire fleet, over time, has slowly become a springboard for the promotion of some noble children in the country.

With the passage of time, almost half of the officers in the entire detachment became the children of the various nobles in the country who came to gild.

After a few days of sailing, the entire detachment, with the exception of some battle-hardened veterans, still maintained high morale and combat effectiveness. The rest of the noble soldiers, without exception, were all killed by the huge wind and waves at sea. As soon as the entire detachment landed, these noble soldiers strongly demanded that the commander of the fleet, Rear Admiral Sasaki, agree to let them go ashore and relax for a few days....

In the face of the demands of these noble soldiers, Major General Sasaki, who was born in poverty, was very disdainful. However, he knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to continue to develop in the Japanese Navy and have a good future, no matter what, he could not offend these noble soldiers.

In addition, Rear Admiral Sasaki, as the commander of the fleet, believes that he has 'accurate' information about the Chinese Air Force, and this air force sortie will definitely lead to an unprecedented victory. Therefore, in the face of the demands of these noble soldiers, Major General Sasaki, as the commander, agreed to the demands of these noble soldiers without any hesitation.

However, what Rear Admiral Sasaki did not expect was that because of his lack of adherence to principles, he completely ruined this detachment and his military career in the Japanese Navy.......

"What are you talking about, the entire detachment, more than half of the officers and men, is not in the military port...."Looking at the adjutant who came to report in front of him, Rear Admiral Sasaki had the action of strangling him to death, staring at a pair of eyes full of anger, and asked loudly.

"Ha Yi....," the adjutant replied with his head bowed.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on, who allowed these officers and soldiers to leave the military port, and I will shoot him with my own hands?" At this time, Major General Sasaki, like an angry lion, roared at the frightened adjutant in front of him. ..., "Your Excellency, Commander, it is your order... After the fleet docked, you personally gave an order to allow all the officers and men of the navy who were not on duty to go ashore to rest....You also know that most of the officers and men in this detachment are noble soldiers with a certain background. After they go ashore, they want to leave the barracks until they lose their chicness, and our guards can't stop them if they want to..."The adjutant replied with a look of grievance just like an angry daughter-in-law....

"Bastard... At this time, those people are still in the mood to spend all day drinking, it is simply unreasonable....what are they still doing in a daze..., immediately contact the army units, search for naval officers and men throughout the city, and must send them back to the military port in the shortest possible time....Later, the entire detachment will be buried at the bottom of the sea again...."Rear Admiral Sasaki, who opened his mouth and personally felt the consequences of his own repercussions, seemed to want to scold something. However, after a short period of thought, he commanded with a resolute face to the adjutant in front of him.

"Hayi...."

Shanghai Tang, a modern city that never sleeps in the Republic of China. With the order of Major General Sasaki, groups of heavily armed Japanese military police began to rush to the brightly lit streets and alleys... For a while, the entire Shanghai Beach was immediately filled with bursts of beatings and scolding, sporadic gunshots, and fell into chaos.

However, at this time, the Japanese army was searching for naval officers and men in the streets and alleys of Shanghai Beach to prepare for the entire detachment to anchor. Nanjing Airport, after several hours of hard work by ground staff. Whether it is a new fighter or a bomber that has just been replaced, all of them are hung with small high-explosive bombs.

At the same time, more than 100 pilots of the expanded 1st Air Force Division also stood neatly on the huge tarmac to hold the last mobilization meeting before departure....

"Comrades, I think that at the beginning, when everyone was flying old-fashioned fighters, the Japanese aircraft carrier Kaga was in front of us, and it was fat meat that could be bitten at any time. And now, we have changed our outfit, and more importantly, this time our opponent is a detachment without any air power. Everyone told me that with the new fighters, do you have the confidence to complete this flight mission...."

"There's... Yes...."

"Okay, now I order, all the combat personnel of the 1st Air Division, immediately board the plane and set off...."Division Commander Wang Guangfu ordered with a confident face.
