Chapter 898

Hideki Tojo may not know that his choice can be said to be the most correct choice made by the whole Japanese army in the plan to move northward. This lieutenant general, shihara koji, can be said to be a rare military talent in the Japanese army.

However, this poor "talent of famous general" was not very lucky. When he was stationed in the Kanto area, he accidentally injured his little brother with his own command knife. As a result, he urinated blood all the year round and was incurable. Although he didn't mean to be slandered, the established front-line commander of Japan's plan to move northward has no future. He is likely to be

In a word, it's not very auspicious to mention these two words when writing the book. In general, Shiyuan's group is a group of heroes, such as Wei Zhongxian, Liu jinla, Wang Zhenla, and others with outstanding martial arts skills, such as Dongfang Bubai, Lin Pingzhi, and Yue buqun.

At that time, someone made a specific analysis of the military strength of the world powers. For example, France could win the war only when women led the Army (Joan of arc); If the army of Italy is not twice that of the enemy, don't expect victory; Although the Germans are brave, they can't get rid of the two lines of fighting, which is in vain; Russia has never taken advantage of a war initiated on its own initiative - now there are more than one Japan: the Japanese used to use generals who had practiced sunflower scriptures when they were fighting the war of fate

If Italy, as a German ally, has shown the level it deserves from the beginning to the present, then Japan, as a giant dominating Southeast Asia, is definitely a one-man crosstalk. Because just when its army decided to fight for the future of the Empire, the Navy came to drag its feet.

Yes, Yamamoto's naval fleet can't withstand the attack of the US Navy - the Solomon naval battle started just as the Japanese army began to gather forces to go north, and the strategic decisive battle between the Japanese Navy and the US Navy started abruptly.

When the Japanese were still racking their brains to replenish their pilots, the three aircraft carriers of the US Navy, which were originally customized by the British navy, actually completed the sea trial almost at the same time and caught up with the fierce sea air war.

This time, Yamamoto's naval forces have not been restored at all. Some of the aircraft carrier fleets are still training pilots in the waters of the Philippines and Taiwan, and several advanced battleships are carrying out radar installation and transformation projects in the mainland. At this time, Yamamoto was not willing to fight a decisive battle, but he did not dare to give up Solomon Islands at will.

According to the news just received, just when the Japanese army approached Sydney and other places in Australia, the US army landed in Australia again, with a total of 100000 US troops. All of a sudden, the Japanese army in Australia did not dare to act rashly any more.

Japan's strategic attempt to completely occupy Australia has also completely failed, and the Solomon islands near Australia has become a barrier to cover the flanks of 230000 Japanese troops on the Australian mainland. Once the Solomon Islands are lost, these soldiers are doomed to become helpless and helpless. Japan can not afford the loss.

None of the King Kong class battlecruisers were available, and more than half of the Japanese Navy's fast assault warships were missing. It doesn't just mean that the combined fleet has lost three main warships for no reason. It means that the Japanese Navy's tactics of covering the rapid assault of battleships are basically unable to be implemented.

On the other hand, the Japanese Navy, which lacks enough naval air force, has long forced the two aircraft carriers, Canglong and Feilong, under the jurisdiction of the second air fleet, to retreat to Taiwan for reorganization, which has reduced Yamamoto's air force. It can be said that the current combined fleet can't even reach half of its peak combat power. It's really irritating to have a decisive battle at this time.

But it's not a good way to leave. To retreat without fighting in the Marshall Islands has given Yamamoto 56 the nickname of "escape marshal" in the Japanese base camp. If he runs in the Solomon Islands again, he won't have to go back to Japan. As a matter of fact, rabbauer will kill himself.

"Nan Yunjun, under the current situation, our fleet has just replenished fuel at the transportation and supply base in labour, and it can support for a while. But what I am most worried about is the scale of the US fleet this time." Yamamoto 56 anxiously looked at the map on his map table and said to Nan yunzhongyi, the commander of the first air force beside him: "the Americans have been shrinking turtles for more than half a year. Now they are eager to fight. There must be something wrong."

"Marshal, we have always judged that the Americans should have three aircraft carriers in their hands to compete with us. I personally think the intelligence information is inaccurate. Americans should have at least five aircraft carriers in their hands now. " After staring at the map, he pointed to the Wake Island and the Marshall Islands, and took a look at Yamamoto 56, he continued to say: "the speed of the American counterattack has changed greatly from very slow to very slow. It took about two months for them to recapture Hawaii to counterattack Midway Island."

Then he said, pointing to Wake Island and other places: "then the Americans recaptured Wake Island and forced us back to the Marshall Islands, which took more than a month... But it only took them 23 days to attack Marshall from Wake Island."

"I know, I know! The combat capability of the US Navy is increasing, and the fleet of the US Navy is becoming larger and larger. " Yamamoto nodded helplessly, admitting his inference: "but what can we do? What can we do? " As he spoke, he pointed to the papers on the desk and continued with a bitter smile: "Nan Yunjun, those bastards of the army are just making fun of the future of the Empire! When we are fighting with the enemy at sea, they are making unremitting efforts to kill us! " In the face of this kind of question, Nan yunzhongyi did not know how to answer it. In fact, the Japanese Navy did the same to the Japanese army, and he did it more than once. What he knew was that the transport ship of the Japanese Navy had just been sunk by a submarine of the US Navy, but he did not tell the Japanese army about the transport ship. As a result, the U.S. Navy often found that the Japanese transport ship had just been sunk, but there were still Japanese ships passing through the dangerous waters. If you really ask the Japanese Navy and the Japanese army who can pit who, you can use a parable to answer - crow fell on the coal pile, no one said who was black. The same was true last time. The army withdrew the ground fighter from the Marshall Islands without telling the Navy. The navy was not ambiguous. It directly left the army of the Marshall Islands and fled all the way to Solomon. With this momentum of cutting each other 18 times, even hostile countries with deep hatred may not be able to do it, right? But this time, the army really went too far, because they once again transferred a large part of the aircraft from the Solomon Islands and Australia, which reduced the number of Japanese fighter planes in the Pacific to a sad situation - there are 172 aircraft in the Solomon Islands, but the actual combat capability is really not much. Most of these airplanes are relatively backward models. When the upstarts like Japan are at a disadvantage, their weaknesses are immediately highlighted. They have too little equipment in their hands, so that most of them can only use poor quality things. If Germany has been suffering from the shortage of raw materials and the inability to integrate the production capacity of the European occupied areas, then the current situation in Japan is that we don't have much production capacity at all. Let's talk about the victory of bushido spirit over the enemy's aircraft and artillery! Most of the Japanese weapons are distributed in the industrial developed areas of Japan, in the form of manual workshops. Therefore, in another time and space, the strategic bombing of the United States is extremely lethal to Germany, but it has been unable to block Japan's weapons production (and most of it, of course). But at such a time, it is absolutely a dream to expect a bunch of manual manufacturing enterprises to be able to fight against such industrial giants as the United States. If you don't have guns and ammunition, you can kill your opponent with bayonets. If you don't have guns, you can kill your opponent with rifles. But if you don't have airplanes and warships, you really can't fight those enemies who are armed to the teeth. After all, mental power can't stop the enemy's tanks or crash the enemy's planes“ It's said that Fengwen Yamashita, a reliable commander in the army, has arrived in the Philippines... Maybe our situation will be better later. " In the end, Nan yunzhongyi squeezed out such a sentence. In fact, what he wanted to say to Yamamoto 56 was: "if it really can't be done, let's give up Solomon Islands." Yamamoto looks at Nanyun Zhongyi. Of course, he knows what his subordinates actually want to express behind what they say, but he reluctantly waves his hand, as if to dispel Nanyun's illusion, as if to strengthen his confidence: "to defeat the U.S. Navy and save the defeat here... Is my great Japanese Imperial Navy soldier, What we should do... "Carry out the" dragon plan "and let the US Navy know that the Japanese Navy is really the number one in the world!" Without waiting for Nan yunzhongyi to persuade him, he made up his mind, clenched his fist and said to his men, "I personally lead the battleship fleet to lure the U.S. Navy south! You enter the battlefield from the West and attack the US Navy! Wipe out the US Pacific Fleet at one stroke“ Hi Nan yunzhongyi bowed his head and replied, "marshal, since you have made up your mind, I will go back to the aircraft carrier Jiahe and get ready!"-------------- Longling wishes you all a happy Christmas Eve
