Chapter 570

Of course, all this will have to wait until the United States turns Japan, which has nothing to look for, into a fly ash before we can make a long-term plan. If the table is lifted by Japan, it is still a question whether the United States can gain the second place, let alone compete with Germany for the future world hegemony.

So biting his teeth, the US Navy found a successful aircraft carrier commander, Spruance, and ordered him to carry out an effective local counterattack against Japan in the waters near the Philippines.

Spruance lived up to the expectations of the public and successfully won this important naval battle which is related to the next fate of Australia. With the help of British radar technology, the U.S. Navy has improved a naval radar that can be installed on the mast. This kind of radar has just come into service and helped the U.S. Navy win a great victory in the naval battle off the Philippines.

It was not until this moment that the US Navy and the British Navy knew how much advantage the German Navy, which had radar technology, had gained in the Atlantic naval battle. It was at this time that they found that they were not wronged at all for losing in the Atlantic.

Now the Japanese Navy has lost the help of German Siemens company, and the development and production of radar system are even more backward. They still have no radar that can be installed on the ship, and no effective means to counter this terrible electronic weapon.

During the war of aggression against China, Japan showed the deliberate intention of a small country to challenge a big country. Long before the Sino Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Japanese began to infiltrate China. The spy structure can be said to be pervasive, and even China's military enterprises were infiltrated by the Japanese. Some of these spies even colluded with Chinese generals to obtain military deployment drawings and other core secrets. Even akado's effective means of espionage penetration after 1920 were mostly influenced by Japanese espionage activities.

However, in the two important battles of the battle of Nomenkan and the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor of the United States, Japan's spy agencies only played the level of campaign scale, rather than the exaggerated strategic level in the past. The Japanese spy agency did not provide a complete analysis of American industry, nor did it remind the Japanese army that the fighting capacity of the Far East forces of the Soviet Union is not what it used to be.

Maybe the spy agency did provide reliable intelligence and thorough analysis of the other party's national strength, but the already terminally ill high-level Japanese turned a blind eye to it. No one can say clearly. However, one thing is certain, that is, Japan mistakenly estimated the war potential of the United States, and also mistakenly ignored the determination of the United States to carry out war.

The Japanese thought that the United States would be emboldened by Japan's fierce offensive, and then lost several times in the Pacific. They hastily negotiated compromise and peace talks and made some concessions that capitalist countries usually make. If Japan gives up some space to appease the United States, the whole coast of China will be eaten by the Japanese.

But what they didn't expect is that in the most hidden corner, the United States has been making every effort to start a war to cope with the constant expansion of its rival Germany. Naturally, the high-level Americans know that making money is not as fast as stealing money, so watching Germany rob and become rich all the way, the Americans want to do the same thing... The place where the original American candidate was in the Middle East, As a result, Japan can't wait to jump out and cry for the United States to smoke itself first.

Japan's intelligence department was completely paralyzed by the US isolation policy. Within a month after the Pearl Harbor incident, Japanese expatriates in the United States were controlled by the United States and monitored within a certain range, so as to prevent Japanese spies from providing any information to the country. This trick is really effective. In a few days, the Japanese intelligence agency became completely blind.

Because of the ethnic relationship, it is difficult for Japan to find spies of European origin in the United States. They can only rely on Japanese nationals to obtain information from the United States. In the end of May 1939, they lost all the intelligence sources in the United States, and even didn't get any decent information.

However, Japan still got the news that the US Navy was equipped with radar from some places. Unfortunately, the news was forgotten in the conference table by a military officer of the German Embassy, and then it was sent to the mayor's office full of Japanese spies as ordinary documents. However, the Japanese spy network in China is still very efficient, The Japanese soon got this important information which was undoubtedly sent to Japan by Germany.

"Nan Yunjun, what do you think of the intelligence of the United States equipped with shipborne radar?" Sitting on a chair in the bridge of the aircraft carrier Chicheng, Yamamoto 56 asked Nan yunzhongyi, who was sitting on the other side, while drinking the well cooked tea.

Obviously, the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet of the Japanese Navy is not optimistic about Japan's scientific research capability: "with all due respect, sir, our ships are equipped with similar equipment to compete with us ships. This will not happen in the short term. We can only rely on the quantity to finish the decisive battle with the enemy in the daytime and defeat the remaining strength of the US Navy at one stroke. "

"Off the coast of the Philippines, we were careless and let the Americans pick up a bargain. The base camp asked us to win a victory as soon as possible to stabilize the morale of the army." Yamamoto narrowed his eyes and said darkly, "we must choose an assault site to force the U.S. Navy to participate in the war, and then dispatch our superior naval air force to annihilate the U.S. Navy, seize the U.S. islands, and force the U.S. to surrender and seek peace."

Yamamoto's heart has not been to defeat the U.S. hegemony in the Pacific, he has been pinning Japan's victory on beating the U.S. and forcing the U.S. to compromise, and then Japan's Pacific interests in exchange for China's interests in the Far East. In order to achieve this goal, he must use the fastest speed to cause the most terrible damage to the United States, to create an illusion to the United States: he cannot defeat Japan.

Once this time has been delayed for a long time by the Americans, then the Americans will see themselves more clearly and see Japan's bluff clearly. At that time, Japan will never be able to win the war“ My subordinates feel that if we have to choose a place, we can land on the American island of wake by force, so that the American fleet can only be forced to come to fight. " Nan pointed to a small island on the chart and said, "if the United States doesn't care, then we will continue to move eastward, occupy Midway Island and push toward Hawaii."“ It's a solution. I'm afraid the Americans will give up these islands and continue to play hide and seek with us. " Yamamoto's biggest fear now is that the United States doesn't care how much island territory it has lost. It's determined to save ten aircraft carriers at home and then kill them. This tortoise game really makes Japan helpless“ Then, let our men speak from your Majesty's side and urge the army to enter Australia? " Nan yunzhongyi has another idea“ Unfortunately, we don't have the confidence that the army will win in Australia. If it's another noman, we're all done. " Yamamoto seemed determined: "that's it! Order the fleet to turn, join the main battleship fleet and landing fleet, and seize Wake Island! "
