April 8, 1913, 2754 AD, Shanghai, frontline headquarters of the East China Military Region.
The East China Military Region is currently dominated by naval and air combat, and the navy accounts for the majority.
Navy Commander-in-Chief Wang Tiechui personally sits at the frontline headquarters to direct this operation against the combined fleet.
"Damn it, these Japanese little devils are really arrogant.
They think they can eat up our Shanghai temporary fleet with just a few broken ships.
Even if our planes can't be dispatched, we still have submarines and shore artillery."
The most depressed person in China right now is undoubtedly the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Admiral Wang Tiechui.
The strangulation operation was obviously well planned, but it was messed up by the Japanese's imagination.
It has to be said that this is also because the Chinese military lacks experience in fighting the Japanese.
They have already based their combat plans on the reaction of the second class, but they never expected that the Japanese's level of second class was It completely exceeded their imagination.
Even though he was extremely depressed, Mr.
Wang had to admit that the Japanese's character this time was really good.
Their imaginative second move had just avoided the trap carefully set by China.
"Hundan, do they think they are the British mainland fleet?
It is unreasonable that they dare to divide their forces under such circumstances."
Wang Tiechui said through gritted teeth.
Now Commander-in-Chief Wang felt angry at being despised, looked down upon and ignored.
Although the temporary task force in Shanghai are all second-hand ships bought from Britain, France and the United States, except for the two Hanoi-class ships of your little devil, they are not new.
Moreover, China still relies on these coastal fortresses and airports for defense, but the Japanese dare to divide their forces in such a big way and only send a third fleet over.
This is too disrespectful.
However, since receiving the news from the weather station, Wang Tiechui didn't know what to say.
This tropical storm undoubtedly came at the wrong time.
It was hard to say how useful the hole originally dug for the little devil would be now.
God knows how long this storm will last.
Although China's aircraft are now the best in the world, they are equivalent to the level of the early to mid-1930s.
It would be too difficult for an aircraft of this caliber to take off into the air despite Category 7 winds and heavy rain.
An aircraft that can maintain combat in such climatic conditions cannot meet the requirements of the technology of the 1930s, or even the technology of the early 21st century.
"Ding ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding."
At this moment, the contact software on the optical brain screen in front of Wang Tiechui sounded a prompt.
At present, these super-era equipment brought during time travel are only equipped by the main personnel in charge, and they can only be used in confidential places.
Wang Tiechui took a look and saw that it was Mr.
Wen's number.
I quickly clicked on the screen, and a video box popped up.
Wen Desi appeared on the screen and said to him: "Immortal, the weather has changed now, and the plane may not be able to fly.
Are you still sure about this?"
Wang Tiechui said quickly: "No problem, Mr.
Wen.
We have a preliminary plan, and we have considered this situation.
It's just that compared to the first plan of almost annihilating the opponent without damage, the losses of the preliminary plan will be a bit larger.
However, we can guarantee that all "annihilate" Wen Desi nodded and said: "Okay, that puts me at ease.
I allow you to use all the power of the East China Military Region to try to annihilate all the Japanese Third Fleet, at least most of it.
As for the losses, there is no need to fight.
If there is no loss, as long as the loss of personnel is controlled, the loss of equipment does not matter.”
"Yes, please rest assured," Wang Tiechui said confidently.
Since Mr.

Wen said so, it doesn't matter.
Of course, there is more than one combat plan this time.
The formulation of the combat plan must take into account a variety of possible situations.
This is a normal army.
For example, in this war, the navy alone has formulated dozens of plans.
It is better to replace this one with that one.
Okay, what's so great about it.
As for the Japanese second-level army that believes that the enemy will definitely act according to its own plan, it is still very rare on this planet.
It's not uncommon for planes to be unable to dispatch.
If they don't even consider this, those staff officers can just find a piece of tofu to kill them.
Although the Chinese People's Liberation Army in this plane was founded only a few years ago, thanks to the information of later generations, they have at least hundreds of years more experience than their opponents at this time.
They are a completely mature army.
To say that they can handle unexpected situations.
Without preparation, that's impossible.
It can only be said that compared with the best plan initially implemented, other alternative plans have some shortcomings, or the results are less, or the losses are greater.
At worst, put them on the coast and let them have a taste of torpedo night.
Torpedoes do not have to be launched from ships and aircraft.
There are also torpedo launching devices on the shore defense turrets.
Well, torpedoes are a bit expensive, especially China’s guided heavy-duty anti-ship torpedoes.
One "Yu-1" torpedo costs more than 20,000 yuan, which is more expensive than five J-2 "Raven" fighter jets.
But Mr.
Wen has said that problems that can be solved with money are not problems.
Even if you throw money at it, you will still kill the Third Fleet.
As for Taiwan, there is no need to worry.
Even if planes and airships cannot be dispatched, two Fuxi-class ships are enough to deal with them.
Super-dreadnoughts and pre-dreadnoughts are completely different concepts of weapons, which cannot be compensated by their quantity.
It’s just that the Japanese don’t know this, or they pretend not to know.
So now Commander-in-Chief Wang is not worried about not being able to defeat the Combined Fleet, but is worried about how to completely annihilate the opponent, because the Combined Fleet is very imaginative in dividing its forces.
After thinking for a while, he connected to the temporary task force in Shanghai: "Zhang Minghui, how is the situation there?"
"Mr.
Wang, the situation is normal.
The reconnaissance submarine just reported that the Japanese Third Fleet continues to move towards Shanghai."
Zhang Minghui reported.
Wang Tiechui ordered: "You first follow plan 8 and try to fight.
Pay attention to casualties.
If the fight is not easy, implement plan 12 immediately.
President Wen has instructions, don't be afraid of losing equipment, don't be afraid of spending money, people The most important thing is that these officers and soldiers are our seeds, we cannot lose too much."
"Yes, Mr.
Wang" Immediately, Wang Tiechui called the Pacific Task Force again: "Gao Yujie, where are you now?"
"Mr.
Wang, we are currently in the waters off Taichung and are shelling the local defenders," Gao Yujie replied.
"The Japanese main fleet will arrive in the southern waters of Ryukyu around the night of the 9th.
Stop them and prevent them from disturbing the landing operations.
According to plan No. 15, strive to annihilate them.
If they cannot be annihilated, they will be entangled.

The weather station said this time The storm is relatively short and will end around the morning of the 11th.
You know what to do."
"Yes, Mr.
Wang, I promise to complete the task."
April 9, 3 pm, Zhoushan waters.
At this time, the tropical storm has arrived, accompanied by strong winds and torrential rain.
On the sea about 100 kilometers east of Zhoushan Port, a fleet flying the rising sun flag was sailing towards Shanghai in a violent storm.
This is the third fleet of the Japanese Combined Fleet.
They were originally just a feint force.
They were ordered to go to Shanghai to contain the "second-hand" fleet of the Chinese Navy and look for opportunities to destroy the three super-dreadnoughts under construction at Jiangnan Shipbuilding.
Yes, their main task is to "contain" rather than fight decisively to attract China's attention.
Although most of the spy networks they had operated in China for many years had been eliminated, there were still some lucky ones left, or it could be said that they were deliberately left behind by the Central News Agency.
In addition, there is a lot of information in the open, and there is no need for professional spies to risk their lives to obtain it.
For example, China has deployed numerous large-caliber shore guns, a large number of torpedo boats, and a large number of military aircraft and other information in Shanghai and Zhoushan.
These things cannot be concealed, and there is no need to conceal them.
Although the Japanese Navy is very confident in its combat effectiveness, it still feels like it has nowhere to go when faced with the hedgehog-like Shanghai coastal defense system.
Although the Japanese are second-rate, they are not stupid, and they will not do things that would obviously lead to death.
Well, there are still such things as death, but those are Army Baga who are full of horse dung.
The cold and noble Imperial Japanese Navy will not do such stupid things.
Therefore, the Third Fleet initially only planned to make feints off the coast of Shanghai.
Therefore, the ships they deployed were all old warships that were more than ten years old and warships captured in the Russo-Japanese War.
But the tropical storm brought good news.
Because of the raging storm, in the past few days, even if China's biggest trump card, air power, was destroyed, most of those disgusting torpedo boats were also destroyed.
At least those little ones with dozens of tons or hundreds of tons would not be able to go to sea.
Yes, although those larger torpedo boats can still go out to sea to fight, under such sea conditions, the torpedo hit rate will be unacceptable, at least for Japanese torpedoes.
Therefore, the commander of the Third Fleet, Gentaro Yamashita, changed his mind and decided to take advantage of this rare opportunity to have a decisive battle with China's Shanghai temporary task force.
He is very confident that as long as there are no help from disgusting things like airplanes and torpedo boats, China's baby fleet will never be a match for the powerful Japanese navy.
At the same time, he also planned to take the opportunity to occupy the Jiangnan Factory and capture three super-dreadnought ships after annihilating the Shanghai fleet.
Well, it's hard to take away the one that was just started, just destroy it.
Just when Gentaro Yamashita was complacent, there was a dark pipe on the sea about 2 kilometers away to the left of the Third Fleet.
This pipe was more than one meter high out of the water and was lining up with the Japanese fleet. go ahead.
If you look carefully, you can see that there is more than one such pipe.
There are a total of 6 such pipes around the Japanese fleet.
If it is normal daytime, these tubes that can run by themselves may be seen by those Japanese watchers who "can see stars in the daytime", because these tubes will not only run, but also emit a faint smoke.
But under the current circumstances of low-hanging dark clouds, strong winds, high waves, and heavy rain, it would be too difficult to find these pipes
