The German armored forces swept the area south of Moscow like a whirlwind, and found the feeling of rushing on the battlefield again. This is exciting good news for the German army, because fast breakthrough also means that the German army will not bear huge casualties in the battle.
And almost at the same time, on the calm sea of the Pacific Ocean, a Japanese aircraft carrier was breaking the waves. A line of brand-new zero fighters on the deck shows that the aircraft carrier has just received supplies and its combat effectiveness is at its peak. In the distant sea, one frigate after another is sailing with the aircraft carrier.
On the sea far away from the parallel place of these warships, the shadow of a huge warship almost shrouded a nearby destroyer. This giant over 25 meters in length may be the largest warship ever built by human beings. It seems that it can defeat all its opponents from the momentum.
General Guhe Fengyi put down his telescope on the bridge of this class of giant ship. Anyway, Navy generals like to watch their fleet with binoculars in such an affectation. They don't know who started to use this kind of pretense, but this action has been well inherited by the commanders of the navies of all countries.
At this time, his heart can not help but sigh for a while, because the United Fleet now can not be compared with the heyday of that year. Continuous attrition caused the United Fleet to lose a large number of naval ships. Now the number of ships in his hands is quite different from the number of ships in Yamamoto 56's command in his heyday.
If two years ago, he was able to command the Japanese joint fleet and become the commander of the most powerful fleet of the Japanese army, then he could describe his mood with zhiyiman. But now, in the face of the mountain of pressure from the U.S. Navy, his mood can only be evaluated by walking on thin ice.
As the saying goes, if you are not in charge, you don't know the price of firewood and rice. Long before he took over the United Fleet, Guhe Fengyi was a representative of the young Navy. He advocated active counterattack and fleet deployment
However, when poor Guhe Fengyi had to take over the command from Marshal Yamamoto 56 and became the new commander of the United Fleet. In fact, the United Fleet, which suffered heavy losses in the Solomon sea battle, did not have the ability to fight back at all, and Yamamoto 56, who was ordered to hand over the commanding power to report on duty, seemed to be a better destination.
After taking over the command of the joint fleet, Guhe Fengyi once planned a comprehensive counterattack plan. However, when he understood the losses suffered by the joint fleet, he had no choice but to give up that impatient plan and continue to pursue the policy of "avoiding war and moving forward" according to Yamamoto's rest plan.
His policy has obviously aroused the antipathy of the six armies and the young Navy. These people think that we should fight to the death with the U.S. Army instead of hiding in the vast Pacific Ocean. At the beginning, this kind of argument was firmly resisted by senior generals such as Nanyun Zhongyi. However, when more and more islands were lost in Southeast Asia, the base camp also stood on this point of view. They hoped that Guhe Fengyi could revive the United Fleet, defeat the main fleet of the United States in a naval battle, and let Japan regain the initiative in the war.
Why is the opinion of the 6th army supported by the Japanese base camp? Because general Ishihara of the 6th army won several encounters in a row near Vladivostok, and compressed trikov's troops near Vladivostok. 6. The victory on the ground supported the 6 armies, so their voice was higher than that of the Navy. Finally, Guhe Fengyi had to consider the idea of supporting his main faction behind him. He could not go against the original idea and continue to avoid the war.
Therefore, no matter how the hapless new commander of the joint fleet, Guhe Fengyi, shirked his responsibility, he could only rally the joint fleet again. The good news is that due to the long-term accumulation, his fleet has sufficient fuel, and the newly added pilots have accumulated a lot of flight experience, which can be regarded as restoring a certain combat effectiveness.
On the other hand, a few days ago, the Japanese Navy made a large-scale suicide attack on the US Navy by forming a cherry blossom suicide plane attack team with flying cadets. They piloted fighter planes directly to reload US Navy warships, which caused great panic to us navy soldiers.
This time, Guhe Fengyi also brought a large number of suicide planes. He hoped to use this method to sink as many US warships as possible and complete a Jedi counterattack against the US Navy. Because of the abundant time, this time the Japanese suicide plane is not an ordinary plane, but a modified special model.
Some fuel tanks have been banned and more * * have been loaded. The whole aircraft is like a guided bomb controlled by people. Once it hits a US ship, the loss will be even greater. This is also the last time that the Japanese Navy is going to let it go, because they have all the money they need.
"The general's patrol plane has sent a message, and there is still no trace of the US fleet." A combat staff officer, holding a telegram record, stood behind Guhe Fengyi: "the guard destroyer fleet in front of him, and no US aircraft under investigation passed by."
Gu He Feng narrowed his eyes and thought about it carefully for a few seconds. He knew that the position of the fleet was safe now. If he continued to go south along this route, he would soon enter the main activity area of the US fleet. That was the battlefield he had chosen this time and the position where he would fight with the US Navy.
In this sea area, the Japanese army has an island airport, which can take off about two aircraft to provide support for the Navy. Although these six aircraft are clumsy when attacking naval ships, they can barely help to provide some air defense firepower, which makes Guhe Fengyi attach great importance to. Another reason for choosing here is that the nearby area has just been occupied by the US military, and the other side should not have time to build an airport on the island. This will be able to win the advantage of two six aircraft for the Japanese army, which is obviously a good trick to take advantage of the situation. Since the aircraft carriers Kaga and Akagi of the Japanese Navy were sunk by the US Navy, the Japanese Navy has been unable to compete with the US Navy in the number of aircraft carriers. However, all this has now been alleviated. The shipyard in the rear has been working day and night. Finally, two aircraft carriers, Xianghe and Ruihe, were launched ahead of schedule, becoming the new maritime pillar of the Japanese Navy. Yamamoto has been looking forward to the new battleship fleet, but also in the hands of Guhe Fengyi reached the peak. With the launch of the Yamato battleship and the refitting of the King Kong class Battlecruiser, the Japanese Navy has a terrible fleet of battleships. This is another reason why Guhe Fengyi finally has the courage to open the fleet and fight to the death with the Americans. Now the new pride of the Japanese Navy is the Yamato, a class class battleship under the foot of guhefeng. As the flagship of the joint fleet, this warship may have the best performance and data in the world. As a battleship, it has the world's largest caliber main gun, a total of nine 46 mm caliber heavy guns. This firepower is enough for it to destroy any enemy warship that enters its range, even the U.S. Navy's Iowa class battleship built on the berth. Behind the flagship of the combined fleet are four King Kong class battlecruisers, which have been modernized and are more advanced than those used by the US Navy. In terms of operational performance, the Japanese battleship has always had an overwhelming advantage, and in terms of tradition and experience of artillery warfare, the US Navy is not a rival of the Japanese Navy at all. This time, the basic tactics of Guhe Fengyi's operation are: the air force is only responsible for fighting for the air supremacy, using suicide planes to interfere with the actions of the US Navy, finally narrowing the distance between the two armies, relying on the absolute advantage of the battleship, using artillery tactics to defeat the US Navy at one stroke. In fact, the Japanese Navy is still debating whether battleships are the main force of the Navy or aircraft carriers. Most of the senior Japanese Navy generals have deep feelings for battleships. It is impossible for them to compromise and then recognize the status of aircraft carrier in a short time. The officers and men at the middle and lower levels also felt that the battleships with strong ships and powerful guns were the real mainstay of the Navy. This is also related to the promotion system of the Japanese Navy. All senior naval officers are selected from the positions of battleships, and the positions of officers who have not been on battleships are relatively marginal. Therefore, in the orthodox sense, the Japanese Navy is dominated by battleship factions. Of course, on the other hand, this is also closely related to the current situation of the Japanese Navy: who dares to say that the naval air force is the main force of the Navy? After several failures, the Naval Air Force has been beaten up by American aircraft, and now it is still said that the air force is the main force, It's not that the Japanese Navy has been defeated, so these officers in the main battle don't admit that the main force of the Japanese Navy has suffered a heavy loss. They believe that the battleship is the main force of the Navy. In this way, they can leave a hope for everyone: our main fleet is still there, and we can fight the first World War. As for the remaining naval battles, how to fight with battleships is the matter of the United Fleet itself, It has nothing to do with them. This is not a group of madmen in self deception, but the hands of the card limits everyone's tactical thinking. If the Japanese naval air force can still be as sharp as it was at the beginning of the war, the argument that the battleship is the king may not exist for a long time. Thinking of this, Gu He Feng shakes his head consciously, and then looks back at the distant sea: "let the fleet continue to move forward, all reconnaissance planes and sentinel warships guard, once the U.S. fleet is present, report to me immediately." mobile users please visit M
