Although the enthusiasm for the training of the troops is very high, Yang Zhen is not in a hurry in the future, and he is in a hurry, just come here to see twice and leave. Instead, at the artillery training base, I carefully checked all the training courses of the artillery. The people who come here for training are the backbone of the artillery regiments of each division, as well as the battalion and company commanders who are scheduled to reequip the troops. This batch of artillery

In particular, Yang Zhen personally inspected the results of the training of the newly formed artillery regiments directly under the artillery headquarters that used the M-30 Type 122 howitzer as the main battle equipment. There are also artillery soldiers stationed here for training in the Advance Army, and Yang Zhen also personally checked the results of the training. He stayed until 9 p.m. on the 7th, when he returned to Harbin by plane from Fujin.

By the time Yang Zhen got off the plane from Harbin and rushed back to the headquarters by car, it was already one o'clock in the morning of the 8th. After several days of running, talking with the heads of the armored corps and artillery, and discussing the next stage of the battle plan with Chen Hanzhang, Yang Zhen felt very tired after returning to the headquarters.

Although Yang Zhen was very tired from the past few days, Yang Zhen did not rest, and he did not even mention the progress of Yuan Zhiruo's conversation with his little sister. Except for the Ministry of Communications who came back on his own, there was only one person sitting in the office, his eyes closed and deep in thought.

Since the beginning of this month, Yang Zhen has informed the Ministry of Communications that as long as he is at the headquarters, he will report the situation of radio surveillance to Japan once every six hours. In the days when he left the headquarters to inspect the situation, the Ministry of Communications reported the radio monitoring to the chief of staff. If there are special anomalies, the chief of staff contacts himself directly.

When Yang Zhen, who came back, he didn't even notify Yuan Zhiruo, who had already rested, the reason why he directly called the communication department on duty as soon as he entered the office was to tell them that he had come back. All reports are still reported to themselves every six hours in accordance with the rules they have set. But if there are special circumstances, you should inform yourself as soon as possible.

In particular, from now until 7 p.m. on the 8th, all new long-range radio signals of the Japanese Navy, no matter what time they appear or what they are doing, must be reported to themselves as soon as possible. What I want is not the content of radio signals, but the time and pattern of their appearance.

It wasn't until four o'clock in the morning of the 8th that the newly erected confidential telephone on Yang Zhen's desk, which had only been in contact with the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Intelligence after entering December, rang sharply. A deputy minister on duty at the Ministry of Communications reported to Yang Zhen that the Ministry of Communications had just intercepted a strange telegram.

Judging by the frequency band used, this telegram should have been sent by the Japanese Navy. However, the direction of the source of the telegram cannot be ascertained for the time being, and it was not sent from China itself or Taiwan at all. Judging by the wavelength of the station used, as well as the strength of the telegraph signal, there is no doubt that it should be long-range wireless telegraphy. It's just that because the distance is so far, even the approximate location can't be determined.

At the same time, the two secret radio listening stations deployed by the Ministry of Communications in Dongning and Hunchun also began to monitor the sudden surge in radio communication signals between the Japanese mainland and the Southern Army and the Japanese naval aviation base in Taiwan since the afternoon of 7 July. Even direct radio communication between the Japanese base camp and the 23rd Army stationed in southern China was extremely frequent.

This was the first time that the Japanese army headquarters and the 23rd Army in the Chinese Dispatch Army were intercepted for the first time. The 23rd Army was reorganized from the former South China Front of the Japanese Army, and was originally under the direct jurisdiction of the Japanese army's base camp. The base camp is directly connected to it, and it is not a problem.

However, after the South China Front of the Japanese Army was abolished this year and reorganized into the 23rd Army, it was assigned to the Chinese Dispatch Army. The Japanese base camp liaised with it, and it has always been the headquarters of the Chinese Dispatch Army in Nanjing. This time it was very special to suddenly have direct contact with an army subordinate to the General Army.

Although it was originally before Yang Zhen's departure, the radio communication between the Japanese army and the Southern Army was quite frequent. But the density of radio signals today is far greater than before. Similarly, the password change process is far more than before. Beginning on 5 December, the Japanese Southern Army changed its password every two days on average.

It was also the first time that radio contact between the Japanese Navy and Taiwan's naval aviation base had been so frequent. By night, there was a sudden surge in radio signals in the Japanese Navy, using frequency bands ranging from naval fleets to naval aviation. It can almost be said that in just a dozen hours from seven days and nights to the present, radio signals appeared in the Japanese Navy covering almost all branches of the Japanese Navy.

As for the mysterious long-range radio signal that used the radio frequency band of the Japanese Navy, which appeared for a short time but only disappeared after a glimpse, it made the Ministry of Communications even more confused. Therefore, according to Yang Zhen's request, after intercepting this signal, he reported it to Yang Zhen as soon as possible.

In addition to the fact that this signal is too strange, another reason for the Ministry of Communications to report at this time is that according to Li Huilan, who is in charge of the surveillance, this signal should come from the western Pacific region. And judging from the wavelength used, this signal can only be emitted by the ultra-high-power radio stations equipped with large ships of the Japanese Navy. It is impossible for ordinary small and medium-sized ships to install such high-power radio stations.

According to Li Huilan's experience in the New Fourth Army, she had the experience of the Japanese Navy's special fleet radio monitoring on the Chinese side. This frequency is a frequency band dedicated to the carrier-based aviation units of the Japanese Navy, and is not used by ordinary naval ship units. When she was in the New Fourth Army, she had listened to the Japanese Navy's aircraft carrier fleet operating in the waters of Zhoushan at that time, and used similar frequency bands.

Because this frequency band is dedicated to the Japanese Navy, except for carrier-based aviation, even road-based aviation is not used, so Li Huilan remembers it very clearly. Therefore, although this signal is only a glimpse, Li Huilan can be very sure that this signal is sent by the special frequency band of the Japanese Navy's aircraft carriers.

The deputy minister of the Ministry of Communications was puzzled by the fact that there was no base for the Japanese Navy in that direction. From the recent Japanese news, there has never been information about the Japanese Navy's visit. Most importantly, the signal lasted only a short time before disappearing again. It was obvious that the other party was practicing radio silence. This signal is only given because of the seriousness of the matter or some other reason.

After listening to the report of the Ministry of Communications, Yang Zhen gently put down the phone in his hand. But he did not give any answer to the skeptical tone of the deputy minister of communications who reported on the phone. Because of what these radio signals mean, especially what the mysterious, glimpsed Japanese Navy radio signals mean, Yang Zhen is already very clear in his heart at this moment.

Looking at the direction of the pointer on the wall that was synchronized with the time in Tokyo, Japan, all of Yang Zhen's previous concerns had been completely dispelled at this time. The letter sent from a long distance, in the words of the deputy minister who reported it, Li Huilan, who was personally on the plane tonight to listen to it, judged that the location was likely to be in the western Pacific, using an unfamiliar signal from the Japanese Navy's frequency band. Although it is not yet possible to decipher it, Yang Zhen can already determine that it is a telegram sent back by the Japanese army to attack the Pearl Harbor fleet.

The long-range wireless telegraphy issued at this time, using the radio frequency bands of the Japanese Navy, and the location of which could not be determined, could hardly have any other possibilities than the Japanese naval fleet, which was indiscriminately bombing Pearl Harbor in the western Pacific at the moment.

As for the surge in radio communication signals between the Japanese base camp and the Southern Army and the Japanese naval aviation in Taiwan, there is only one explanation. That is, since last night, the Japanese Southern Army has launched an operation against Malaya, and is preparing to carry out an air strike on the US Navy and Army Air Base in the Philippines.

Yang Zhen did not suspect that these new radio communications were falsely disguised by the Japanese army. Malaya has a time difference with Pearl Harbor, and it's normal to start a few hours early or a few hours in the evening. Anyway, it's all going to be fought, and it doesn't matter to the Japanese whether it's early or late.

How to get the maximum result at the least cost is what they like to think about the most. As for the international rules, the Japanese have always considered them to be the game of the strong. What's more, the Japanese army, which has always liked sneak attacks, will not wait for Japan to officially declare war on the United States and Britain before launching an attack.

Since the Meiji Restoration, almost all the wars waged by the Japanese army have begun with undeclared war. This time, in the face of the more assertive United States and Britain, the Japanese will still not play by the rules of the game. If you really honestly wait for the declaration of war to be completed before you do it, then you will not be Japanese.

The surge in radio signals between the Japanese base camp and the 23rd Army stationed in Guangzhou can only be explained by the fact that the Japanese are going to move to Hong Kong. Otherwise, unless it is a matter involving international operations, such as the war against the United States and Britain, the Japanese army base camp will not bypass the Chinese dispatch army, which is directly subordinate to the 23rd Army.

Hong Kong, a very important blood vessel in China's War of Resistance under the nose of the Japanese army, was dealt with by the Japanese army a long time ago. The British, who had been taking care of Hong Kong's master, had always hesitated to do it. Now that it has been decided to start a big fight against the United States and Britain, it is not until when it will not be done at this time.

At this time, Yang Zhen, with this report from the Ministry of Communications, the last stone in his heart has completely landed. The final direction of this war has not deviated from the historical track that he is familiar with. After all, the Japanese still failed to control their greed and completely pushed themselves into the abyss.

Habitually walking to the window, looking out the window vigilantly looking at a wandering sentry, Yang Zhen showed a long-lost smile on his face. This big drama finally kicked off as I expected. The rest depends on what kind of role you can play in this big drama.

The Japanese, who have gone crazy and completely embarked on the road of no return, have completely pushed themselves into the abyss, but this war, which really indicates that the flames of war have burned all over the world, has given the Chinese nation a chance to rise again, and now it depends on what to do.

My hope is not only those tanks and planes, but more importantly, the United States and Britain have aircraft and equipment and advanced technology. As for the agreement signed with the Americans, if it needs to be really roughly implemented, it is also necessary that Pearl Harbor will not sound the explosion of Japanese bombs.

Sometimes, it's just that subtle. I haven't been stabbed in my buttocks, I never know what it feels like to hurt, and I'll always do things half-heartedly. Only when he is stabbed in the ass by someone else's bayonet will he be really anxious and angry, and seriously fulfill what he should have done. Only those who really suffer will truly realize their previous mistakes.

This is still the case for ordinary people, let alone these things that are related to the interests of the country. The bombs on Pearl Harbor were not dropped, and the Americans, believing that the Anti-Japanese Union was no longer of use, could turn this agreement into a piece of waste paper at any time. But after being really stabbed by the Japanese, at least until they have absolute superiority on the battlefield, they will still roughly fulfill.
