Chapter 1597 The Great Ideal

An accident happened when Bai Sihua, Percival and others left the team and rushed to the pier.A battalion commander questioned their actions: "Didn't the commanders want to leave us alone?" His speculation immediately caused an uproar—thousands of British soldiers sent Bai Sihua and Percival to their convoy. Surrounded, ask them to give an explanation.Most of them didn't know that the so-called "Singapore retreat" was impossible to proceed, and asked when they could board the ship.Percival couldn't bear to deceive them, so he just stayed in the car and couldn't get out.Bai Sihua sent his own head of guards to respond: "We are now going to discuss specific retreat matters with the Americans. You wait here patiently, and there will be results soon."

"Son of a bitch, you don't just want to run away alone, do you?" A soldier shouted loudly from behind.

"What happened to the previous battle? Didn't we want to prevent the Chinese from boarding the ship and prevent them from seizing our cabins? But I saw that the Chinese have already entered the dock area," someone asked loudly.

In order to avoid being threatened by the Chinese with Thomas and Johnny, Bai Sihua disregarded Wavell's advice and publicized the "Singapore retreat" order. Now, he has to pay the price for his original decision.

The British are not good at fighting, but they are quite good at questioning orders from Shangfeng.In the beginning, only a few people spoke, and only a thousand people participated in besieging the convoy.After the head guard gave an ambiguous answer, more people joined in, and soon completely surrounded the convoy.The emotional soldiers knocked on the doors and windows of Bai Sihua and Percival's car, urging them to give a reasonable explanation-"We have the right to know the truth!"

"Asshole, are you going to disobey the military order?" the chief guard yelled.

"How dare we disobey the military order, we just don't want to stay here and wait to die. Hobbit, you can't be so selfish, you can escape life by following the big man. But what should we do? Should we die?" The battalion commander involved said.

Hearing these words, Bai Sihua, who was sitting in the car, turned pale with anger again.Percival saw that the situation was getting more and more tense and even out of control, he sighed and opened the car door and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, don't doubt the decision of the headquarters anymore, I'll stay. It's okay Bar?"

The soldiers temporarily stopped making noise, but Bai Sihua became excited. He rolled down the car window and shouted at Percival: "Percival?! Negotiations cannot be separated from you!"

Gritting his teeth, Percival turned to him and said, "Your Excellency, go away, I will leave this place to me!" Then he turned to face the crowd that had become silent, and said loudly, "When did our Royal Army become so sluggish?" The situation? I admit that the Japanese army is very fierce, but what I want to say is that our soldiers of the British Empire are not easy to mess with. The Japanese army has repeatedly trampled on our dignity. Today, let us teach them a painful lesson! Come on, if you think you are still a man, stand behind me and let me lead you to recover our honor from the Japanese!..."

The soldiers were moved by Percival's speech, and they moved out of the way one after another.The convoy finally got started, and Bai Sihua watched Percival's figure disappear into the darkness through the car window, and couldn't help but burst into tears.He suddenly covered his face with his hand, choked up and said to himself: "Oh my God! When did I become so cowardly and selfish as a general of the British Empire?"

Perhaps in his heart, Bai Sihua also wanted to stand up bravely like Percival, but in the end, he chose to leave cowardly.

"General, we should be proud of General Percival!" Beside him, Quartermaster Eagle said softly.

"The reason why we have fallen to this point is because of the damn Chinese!" Bai Sihua suddenly raised his head and shouted, shaking his fists; "It is these lowly yellow pigs who have deprived us of the opportunity to retreat! I swear, I I will never spare these lowly yellow-skinned pigs! One day, I will let them kneel at my feet and ask for forgiveness!"

Eagle shook his head slightly and looked out the window, thinking to himself: "What a great ideal! Hey! Don't the Chinese people deserve to die? When they are in trouble, they can still get help from the distant motherland. What about us? ?”

Bai Sihua and others were not the last group to board the ship. After them, there were more than [-] volunteers and more than a thousand Jewish students from Aesop.In response to Zhang Liangfeng's order, Aesop personally led more than [-] soldiers to take charge of the "security work" of the British army. They confiscated the weapons of Bai Sihua and others, and "protected" them aboard a medium-sized ship called "Rising Star". cruise.After they boarded the ship, as a long siren pierced the silent night sky, the "American Evacuation Fleet" left the dock step by step and began to return.

At this time, the "Kaga" aircraft carrier fleet led by Yamada Definition has already set up a battle in the sea about [-] kilometers away from them.In the captain's room of the "Kaga", Yamada Yiji looked at the dark sea in front of him smugly, with a slight sneer from the corner of his mouth from time to time, saying that the trainee captain of the "Kaga" beside him, Major Okada Harukatsu said: " When our fighter planes suddenly appeared in the sky over the heavy patrol of the US military, do you think the Americans will be scared to pee their pants?"

Okada Haruka smiled, and jokingly said, "Even if you don't pee your pants, your legs will probably shake!"

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it!"

Yamada Yiji was chatting and laughing with Okada Haruki in the captain's room of the "Kaga". In the sea water just over [-] meters away from them, two Song-class submarines were slowly floating towards the surface of the sea under the command of Xu Kai.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, the Japanese did not implement a blackout, which gave Xu Kai and the others a chance to find out before the enemy.Two periscopes surfaced one after the other. In the cockpit of a Song-class submarine numbered "S-002", the lookout soldier Feng Yuanzheng exclaimed excitedly: "I saw it, I saw it! The distance is about 4000 meters. Xu Ship, come and see."

Xu Kai came over, looked at the observation mirror, and said: "Okay, brothers, cheer up, the opportunity is here, we must seize it! Xiao Feng, come and see if there is an aircraft carrier. If so, determine its location."

"Yes!"

The "U.S. Evacuation Fleet" had just left the pier, and Grant was about to communicate with Mitterrand, who was on the same ship, when he heard the radar soldier Deco shout: "Captain, that's not right, the direction at eleven o'clock It seems that there is a group of unknown fleets!" Grant walked over to take a look, raised his brows and said, "It must be the Japanese fleet, it seems that they have already noticed the abnormality."

"Then what shall we do now?" the first mate Richard, who was driving the ship, asked.

"Inform the Chinese immediately, and I will go to Consul General Mitterrand. Things may be difficult!"

"Yes, sir!"
