    Night falls slowly, and the air battle is over.  The ground was filled with Army troops looking for skydiving pilots.  At the airport in the rear, both sides were also urgently repairing damaged aircraft, counting losses and results, and assessing the strength gap between the enemy and ourselves.

    Chu Yunfei was sitting in the restaurant eating his dinner. He didn't understand the air battle during the day at first, but later he understood something when he saw that Citigroup did not send any planes.

    "Commander, the Army Aviation Headquarters has sent over today's air combat report for the day!"

    Fang Ligong walked in. He was already wearing a pair of glasses, as if his eyes would never be able to take them off.

    "How many fighter planes did our army lose?"

    Chu Yunfei asked while eating his meal.

    "One hundred and twelve fighter planes were shot down, and dozens more were damaged and are now being repaired. Basically all the pilots who parachuted have been found, and forty-two pilots were killed!"

    Chu Yunfei did not respond and was still eating. Fang Ligong did not disturb Chu Yunfei at this time and waited for Chu Yunfei to finish.

    After a while, Chu Yunfei finished eating, and the orderly came up and cleared the table, and then the two of them walked towards the headquarters.

    "One hundred and twelve aircraft were shot down, and forty-two pilots were killed. This is a considerable loss. What is our result?"

    "Two hundred and sixty-two Citigroup Mustang fighter jets were shot down. Their original casualties were estimated to be between 100 and 140. We don't know the details. In addition, their pilots who parachuted did not jump to us.  within the defense zone.¡±

    "Two hundred and sixty-two, two hundred and sixty-two"

    Chu Yunfei has been talking about this number. He understands in his heart that the reason why Citigroup's casualties are more than twice that of Huaxia is because their pilots lack actual combat experience.  All their pilots with some actual combat experience went to support the European battlefield.

    After a while, Chu Yunfei said: "Immediately give an order to recruit local people to start building a field airport. At the same time, send electricity to the Army Aviation Nanjing Headquarters and tell them that we are about to build a field airport on a large scale and ask them to send their fighter planes as soon as possible."  Transfer over here!¡±

    "yes!"

    Chu Yunfei¡¯s order was issued, and local people on the island of Papua Guinea were forcibly recruited by the Chinese army and asked to build a field airport.

    At the same time, some troops were also transferred by Chu Yunfei to build field airports.

    With the participation of the army and local people, the construction speed of field airports has been significantly accelerated. As time goes by, field airports continue to take shape.  China's domestic air force divisions have also accelerated their transfer to the South Pacific.

    On June 15, 1943, China had stationed 4,000 fighter planes on the island of Papua Guinea, and there were still many fighter planes stationed on the islands in the provinces of North Malaysia and East Malaysia. Once the frontline  If the war is not going well, they can immediately go to support.

    The Army Airlines dispatched a large number of fighter planes, and China Hainan Airlines also stationed a large number of HNA Hellcat fighters, torpedo planes, dive bombers and other aircraft to areas such as Papua Guinea, East Malaysia and Northern Malaysia at this time.

    Needless to say, Army Airlines is preparing, and Hainan Airlines is also making preparations before the war.

    Citigroup's Pacific Fleet is increasing in strength, and the Chinese Navy will not add aircraft carriers to the Pacific Fleet for the time being. After all, the Australian fleet is currently being formed, and other fleets are also adjusting. They do not have the energy to add aircraft carriers to the Pacific Fleet.  The fleet increases in strength.

    But the main combat power of the aircraft carrier itself is the aircraft, so they use these places as unsinkable aircraft carriers.  In the event of a large-scale naval battle, these naval aircraft can immediately take off to fight and support the front line.

    On the night of June 15th, Chu Yunfei¡¯s headquarters

    Tonight, Chu Yunfei¡¯s headquarters was brightly lit. A group of generals were sitting on both sides of the long rectangular table in the headquarters. The leaders on the left and right were Lu Zhengyi, commander of the Fifth Group Army, and Zhu Changhui, commander of the 54th Group Army.

    The next ones are the commanders of the infantry divisions, heavy artillery division commanders, tank division commanders, and other air defense brigade commanders and other generals.

    In a word, the lowest level to participate in this meeting is a colonel.  There are also a large number of major generals, lieutenant generals and other officers on it.

    Chu Yunfei stood at the front and did not sit down. He looked back and forth at them with his hands behind his back and then said: "You have had enough rest during this period. Some situations in the army that can be solved now have been solved.  What can't be solved can only be solved laterexplain.  The reason why I called you to a meeting so late tonight is for tomorrow's battle!  "

    After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, the people below suddenly had different expressions. They did not expect that tonight's meeting was really a military meeting as they had guessed, and the battle time was still tomorrow.

    Chu Yunfei paid no attention to what they were thinking. He glanced at everyone and continued: "The reason why I held a military meeting so late is to keep it secret. There are many Citigroup on the island of Papua Guinea.  military spy, so I have to convene an emergency military meeting tonight.

    If you have any ideas, let¡¯s talk about it later. Now I will briefly talk about tomorrow¡¯s attack plan!  "

    After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, Fang Ligong, who was standing on the other side, handed over a folder.

    At the same time, the map hanging on the wall behind Chu Yunfei was also opened, and a staff officer handed a baton to Chu Yunfei's hand.

    "The focus of our attack tomorrow will be Mogoi! The 136th Division of the Fifth Group Army is currently stationed in Mogoi."

    Chu Yunfei said this and turned his eyes to Lu Zhengyi.

    "Lu Zhengyi, after you go down, order the 136th Division to sneak out of the position at four o'clock in the morning tonight and press on the Citi Army position before they are discovered. In addition, move the 25th Infantry Division into the position. When the 136th Division launches the attack  Later, they will be responsible for covering the flanks of the 136th Division and covering the 136th Division¡¯s attack on the Citi Army!¡±

    136th Division, this is Chu Yunfei¡¯s old unit.  It was also one of the five main divisions that was founded by Zhou Weiguo. Its combat effectiveness was unparalleled in China, and the soldiers inside were all veterans of hundreds of battles.  Every soldier crawled out from among the dead.  There are no new recruits. These elite infantry divisions select soldiers from various old units.

    "Yes! Commander, don't worry!"

    In this very formal military meeting, Lu Zhengyi would not call him "teacher".  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
