Chapter 224 Fenghuaxue
There is a reason why He Chi dared to take on such a life-threatening task, because he can run away at any time now.
"The player has left the Philippines area, the death march mission has been completed, and no core data fragments have been found. Players can choose to leave the instance." This is the system message he received three days ago.
What is core data fragmentation? The system didn't give any prompts at all. But he had already obtained the "mission guarantee", so it didn't matter if he explored it further. Since it was called data fragments, he felt that if he looked through the US military's database, he might find something.
So he and Colonel Carlson hit it off, and after reporting to General Nimitz, they formulated this combat plan called "Hermit Crab".
The Japanese soldiers headed by Iiguni Kojiro found that their treatment suddenly became better. Not only did their living place become a double room, but the food was also greatly improved.
These fishermen and country folk from Hokkaido tasted steak and red wine for the first time.
Drinking all the red wine in his hand, several Japanese soldiers were singing and dancing in the bedroom. At this time, Kojiro did not give up any opportunity to confuse others. "Gentlemen, have you seen it? It is true." Only by following Mr. He Chi can we have a good life!"
"Fan Guo! Come here!" He Chi's voice came from a distance.
Kojiro trotted up to him and bowed 90 degrees, "Hai! Your Excellency! I am at your disposal!"
"After dinner, call all your people and prepare to teach others!" He Chi ordered.
"Hai! I'll tell you right away, but..."
"Nothing..."
"But Your Excellency, they are all rough people. Ikeda and the others were before If a fisherman with no education is to teach others, he still..." Kojiro lowered his head and said in an uncertain tone.
“Don’t worry, you are the best teachers in this area.”
Half an hour later, Kojiro and his team discovered that their "students" were a hundred American sailors.
"Tell me everything you know about the habits of the Japanese Navy, and then let them become familiar with the performance of the Tanikaze. The above work must be completed within 3 days!" He Chi ordered.
"Hai! But, Your Excellency, we don't speak English very well, and the biggest tradition of the Japanese navy is to yell and curse when teaching people, and sometimes use bamboo swords..." Ikeda on the side Said with some hesitation.
He Chi translated his words to Colonel Carlson.
"I approve!" The colonel made his decision without even thinking.
"As long as they can adapt to the Tanikaze as soon as possible, you can do whatever you want, including beating and scolding."
With the colonel's sword, these Japanese soldiers who had been bullied by the Americans for a while found an opportunity. These guys set up more than 20 checkpoints on the Tanikaze, dropped signs that needed to be collected at each location, and then had these American sailors go around the entire ship to collect these signs.
Soldiers are not allowed to turn back. Once they miss a sign, they must go around in a circle and look for it again. According to regulations, only those who collect all 22 signs can eat and rest.
"Sir, this is a traditional program of the Japanese Navy, which allows novices to familiarize themselves with the structure of the ship as quickly as possible." Ikeda lowered his head and reported to Colonel Carlson.
"It's a good idea. It can even be promoted in the army in the future, but how did I find that no one has completed the whole process yet?" The colonel expressed his doubts.
After listening to He Chi's translation, Kojiro and Ikeda chuckled and turned out dozens of stacked colored papers in their hands.
The sign of the twenty-second checkpoint, these evil-minded guys didn’t even put it down.
That night, the barracks at the Midway Naval Base were filled with national curses starting with F from American soldiers. For three days in a row, shouts and curses rang out from various locations on the Tanikaze. If He Chi hadn't thought some words were too dirty and didn't translate them at all, the American soldiers, who had reached the limit of their patience, would have started fighting.
At the same time, the Tanikaze's hull was also modified. The entire destroyer's mine-laying and mine-sweeping systems were removed at once, reducing the weight of the hull again while retaining the appearance. , allowing the already light and fast Tanikaze to increase its speed again.
The U.S. crew members who boarded the ship after the No. 100 special training were wearing captured Japanese military uniforms. Among them were more than a dozen people of Asian and Indian descent. These people will work on the deck surface together with the few Japanese sailors. In addition to their average height, Some of them are beyond the standard. If you don’t look carefully, they look quite similar.
“It looks good, but what seems to be missing?” He Chi rubbed his chin and looked at the hull and thought for a long time, then asked the staff for paint and hanging boards.
After a while, He Chi painted out a few letters of the name on the ship's side and repainted it.
"Yukikaze? Why did you change the name like this?" Major Rockman, the submarine commander accompanying this mission, didn't know why.
"It's nothing, it's just that this mission is quite dangerous. I just changed my name to hope for good luck." He Chi threw away the brush in his hand and smiled mysteriously.
——
In early June 1942, the First Air Force of the Japanese Combined Fleet was composed of the four heavy aircraft carriers Akagi, Soryu, Hiryu, and Zuikaku, with seven battleships including Yamato and Nagato and five Under the cover of more than ten other warships of various types, they attacked Midway Island in a mighty manner.
The U.S. military has already understood this plan because it intercepted the Japanese telegram code in advance. The U.S. Pacific Fleet has deployed all its elites. More than 50 large and small ships, including three aircraft carriers, have ambushed in the east of Midway Island. Even the Battle of Coral Island was The battered Yorktown also rushed to the battlefield after emergency repairs.
At the small Midway Naval Base, the US military was holding a small departure ceremony.
Sea Breeze Hunting.
The few school-level commanders on the shore saluted the submarine that was about to set off. Due to confidentiality requirements, except for the sailors participating in the "Hermit Crab" program, only senior officers at the Midway base knew the news.
They are the only ones seeing them off, and the submariners on the Nautilus opposite are most likely facing a journey with no return.
"Gentlemen, this will be the most glorious moment of our naval career!" Submarine Commander Major Rockman said to his sailors.
In the morning light, the "Snow Wind" and the "Nautilus" slowly sailed out of the military port and disappeared into the horizon after a while.
Two hours later, the destroyer Hara Tanikaze had appeared in the sea near Midway Island, and the Nautilus was directly below it, preparing to sneak in during the first wave of fighting between the US military and the Japanese army.
In the bridge, He Chi and Colonel Carlson, who came with him, each held telescopes to observe the sea, when suddenly there was a buzzing sound above their heads.
"Huh?" He Chi looked up at the sky and found two Dauntless dive bombers.
“Didn’t you say that for the sake of confidentiality, we wouldn’t send a plane to follow us?” He Chi turned around and looked at the colonel in confusion.
"Well, I did tell the base that way, but..." The colonel looked at the planes in the sky carefully, "But the ones in the sky don't seem to be planes taking off from the Midway base."
" Not from Midway? Where is that?" He Chi's voice began to change.
"If I remember correctly, that direction should be the York City..."
"Huh~" He Chi took a deep breath, "To be on the safe side, let me ask, have you ever spoken to the York City?" Our disguise plan?”
“Sorry, for the sake of absolute confidentiality, only a few senior officials know about it, and ordinary pilots are definitely not included here.”
After saying this, the two people started talking at the same time. The other party saw a look of horror in his eyes.
“FUCK! What are you waiting for! Run!!”
