Chapter 2716： Japanese arrangement

After half an hour, the Cereshen, which had re-evacuated a certain distance, began to report to the headquarters using the newly activated confidential frequency band. After completing the mission, Ceresian followed for a period of time, confirmed more information about the US fleet and sent it back to headquarters.

And Gushin’s intelligence became the basis for the Japanese Navy’s assessment of the US Navy’s combat effectiveness in the next battle! To be honest, this time, the Japanese overestimated the strength of the US military. And this overestimation seriously affected the subsequent response and tactics of the Japanese fleet to the US fleet.

"Damn, there are more than 6 aircraft carriers, and more than a dozen battleships! How do we fight this?" The former Royal Navy Air Force Lieutenant General Charles said depressed. "And the most **** thing is that before sunset today, their fleet will not enter the attack range of my bombers. The Americans have calculated very well. They use the night to rush for a period of night, preferring to shorten the attack event, and absolutely not. Put ourselves in a crisis, even if we want to launch an attack, we can only choose tomorrow morning!"

"It is not easy to stop the U.S. Navy from attacking Tarragon Island on such a scale, so you don't have to feel uncomfortable because you can't protect this oil field. Just think about how to severely damage the U.S. fleet tomorrow." Said a Japanese officer.

"Of course I would not use a bomber group of less than 150 to fight the US fleet, and even I know very well that these 500 kg bombs are not that deadly for battleships, plus their seaplanes and daytime escorts. Aircraft, in fact, our attacks are not very useful if they are scattered across the entire fleet." Charles said.

"We can attack battleships with torpedo planes, and attack aircraft carriers and light warships with bombers." An officer said.

"Don't you know that torpedo planes are the easiest to shoot down? Because they are slow, heavy, and bulky, and it is difficult to get out after entering the attack route. Torpedo planes should be protected by fighter jets and have dive bombers. Suppress the anti-aircraft firepower on the opposite side. They are the terminator of warships, but they are not suitable for entering the battlefield alone or at the beginning." Charles shook his head and said.

"If I were to choose the lowest cost and most rewarding target, then I would set the target on American aircraft carriers, because these warships are the most vulnerable, and a 500kg bomb can completely sink the target. How about 150 attack aircraft? If we coordinate well, we can completely destroy more than three aircraft carriers! In this way, the American air defense net will be completely torn apart, and the main force of the Japanese fleet will enjoy a unilateral overwhelming advantage when fighting the Americans. "Charles said.

"But we believe that the core force in naval battles is still battleships, and if the strength of the US Navy's battleship squadrons is preserved intact, they are still stronger than us." A Japanese officer insisted.

"This is not a problem that I want to solve. It is a matter of the combined fleet. My task is to get the greatest results possible. I don't mind launching an attack on the U.S. battleship squadron after severely damaging the U.S. aircraft carrier, but the focus of the attack can only be One!" Charles was very determined.

"Okay, stop talking about these useless things. If you disagree with my tactics, then you can naturally report upwards, and then draw up your own tactics, and I will report my campaign plan to the summit, and I will obey the highest commander’s Order, that's it, let's start!" Charles didn't bother to talk nonsense with some people, but began to make a battle plan with his own staff. At the same time, Nagano Slim, who has rushed from the central part of Kalimantan to the north, is considering his plan!

Someone may ask, why is Nagano Shoushen, who once commanded the Japanese cruiser team, now serves in the rear? The reason is simple. The original Japanese cruiser squadron has been beaten seven or eighty-eight. Then Nagano's self-cultivation as the commander of the fleet will naturally be transferred to the second line. Now, the main tasks of Nagano's self-cultivation are anti-submarine and escort, and management. A large number of second-rate, third-rate and even inferior warships.

"The Americans came too suddenly, we didn't have enough preparation at all." Nagano Slim said while synthesizing his own intelligence. What does Nagano have in his hands? To be honest, there are not many regular destroyers. There will be a lot of torpedo boats and anti-submarine boats. There is no way. Under the raging situation of American submarines, the main tasks of the Japanese second-line fleet and auxiliary fleets are anti-submarine, depth-water bomb anti-submarine, mine anti-submarine, Anti-submarine network and anti-submarine, there are even people who engage in metaphysics to worship anti-submarine...

"Fortunately, we have enough mines." Nagano can only comfort himself. After all, it is an anti-submarine fleet, and deploying mine nets at the port to organize submarines into the port or ambush near the port is naturally the best choice. . Well, how should the mines be arranged? this is a problem!

There is also a reason why Nagano can later become the commander of the combined fleet. At least at this stage, the basic skills are relatively solid. Both offensive and defensive mines have certain accomplishments. To be honest, if the U.S. fleet uses naval guns to attack Taragen Island, it will naturally attack the oil fields on the southwest coast and nearby oil refineries, while the southwest of Taragen Island is close to Kalimantan Island, excluding areas with insufficient water depth. In addition, in fact, the sea area that can be used for the deployment of the large fleet is not large, and considering that the range of the main guns of the current battleships is about 20 kilometers, so based on this, find some suitable ones near Tarragon Island. It is not difficult to deploy mines. Although it is impossible to throw tens of thousands of mines directly in the war between Britain, Germany and Russia, it is still possible to cause some trouble to the Americans In addition to mines, The rest is a large number of torpedo boats. The performance of these torpedo boats is uneven. The worse ones are only two 18-inch torpedoes and two machine guns. The displacement is no more than 20 tons. The better ones can carry 6 21-inch torpedoes with displacement. A few hundred tons can be used as a small destroyer. But fortunately, the torpedo boat is very small, fast, good at hiding, and good at sneak attacks and harassment. So if you cooperate with the mine array, not to mention severely inflicting the US fleet, at least it can cause some trouble. In fact, the Japanese navy executives did not expect Nagano's self-cultivation to do anything earth-shattering, just doing everything!

As time passed by, when the sun gradually set, the US fleet finally entered the final attack starting position, and the Japanese also took advantage of the last day to make some preparations, the first round between the two sides The contest is about to begin!
