When the Germans killed the Quartet in the Soviet Union and won the Battle of the Crimean Peninsula and the Battle of Donetsk in succession, the days of the Japanese in the Pacific were not as good as the other. Fifty-six Yamamoto took the United Fleet together on Wake Island, and stormed towards Midway. The result was that after halfway through, he got the news of Midway Island falling.
In order to delay the time of the battle, the Japanese military has tried everything possible. Since they received news of the US military's attack on Midway, they organized various reinforcements in an attempt to delay the time for the US military to seize Midway. But now it seems that these efforts have failed in the end.
The naive performance of the Japanese army in the island defense battle was exposed in the Midway Island defense battle. A large number of beachhead positions were easily destroyed by the US military's large-caliber naval guns, and did not serve the purpose of defending the enemy from the beachhead. Facts have proved that in the anti-landing operation that has lost the superiority of sea and air, laying defenses on the beach head is a thankless act of wasting troops.
In this battle, the US military took the lead in destroying the Japanese military airport and the beachhead defensive positions on the outskirts of the island with typical landing operations. As a result, the Japanese army was in a passive position at the beginning of the battle, tired of coping with it, and eventually lost the important military center, Midway Island, which was crucial to them.
As a result, the Japanese navy marshal Yamamoto led the joint fleet to fight the US Navy in the waters of Midway Island under the anger of 561. The US military forces at the airport on Midway Island have been repaired. Advantages, the battle process is very difficult, and ultimately can only be defeated as the final outcome of this Battle of Midway.
In this battle, for the first time, the joint fleet was sunk the main naval decisive weapon such as an aircraft carrier. Under the attack of the US Army aviation, the Japanese Navy ’s aviation unit finally revealed its flaws, several from the US Navy ’s aviation aircraft. The torpedo dropped hit the aircraft carrier Long Xiang, sinking the Japanese aircraft carrier that was barely completed in 1933.
According to the age of the ship, this battleship is definitely the main carrier of the new launch, but because it is a half-way merchandise modified with the hull of the cruiser, the overall performance is not very good. This time it was sunk, for the Japanese Navy It's not a real injury.
But the bread-and-butter information here made Japanese seniors start to be restless. First, somehow lost an old battleship, Yamashiro, and then lost an aircraft carrier, Long Xiang, on the Midway Island. The meaning revealed in the middle was not as simple as losing the battleship twice or twice.
Facts have proved that the US Navy is recovering its strength, and that it is recovering at a speed that the Japanese Navy cannot parry. The loss of Midway has caused the Japanese Navy to lose its strategic depth, exposed Wake Island and the Marshall Islands to attacks by the US Navy, and the entire Australian strategy has been greatly affected.
At the beginning, the Japanese attack on the Hawaiian Islands was frustrated, and the battle on Kauai ended with a Japanese defeat. More than 40,000 Japanese soldiers fighting tenaciously broke on Kauai, and the Japanese navy ended the strategic offensive of winning streak.
This was followed by the Japanese navy going south to participate in the Australian raiders and operations. As a result, the crucial Midway Island was just lost in the beginning. This cannot be explained by bad luck for Japan. The Army has lost more than 20,000 soldiers, and the Navy has killed more than 13,000. What is more terrifying is that more than 200 pilots with rich combat experience in the Army Aviation have also lost their lives. This is an irreparable loss for Japan.
Infantry can be quickly replenished by recruiting soldiers. It has been influenced by Bushido since childhood, and there have been many Japanese youths who have been brainwashed by distorted patriotism for many years. Even if they lost 100,000 infantry, they can train and recruit more infantry personnel in a short time. Although the quality is bound to decline, it can be compensated by quantity.
However, pilots have always been Japan ’s weakness, and the culture and industrial heritage have made this nation not very popular and understand machinery. Japan ’s training of pilots can only rely on the training and accumulation of flight schools. This is much worse than the United States and Germany. . Once the pilots were lost, Japan could not quickly replenish, which directly caused a serious decline in the Japanese Air Force ’s combat effectiveness.
Aircraft performance issues cannot be compensated for in a short period of time due to design reasons. Pilots ’qualities have also fallen madly at the speed of diving. This directly led the Japanese aviation force to enter a vicious circle of dead ends: poor aircraft performance leads to loss of pilots. Too large, the increase in pilot losses has led to a significant reduction in the pilot ’s ability to control the aircraft, and the inability to control an aircraft that has fallen behind has caused the pilot to lose more ...
On the calm sea, the Japanese joint fleet was still murderous. In terms of scale, it is still a behemoth that the US Navy cannot challenge head-on, but the sky above this fleet is full of worries. The entire fleet did not have the fierce and sharp feeling of just starting the war, and vaguely lost some sad temperament.
Fifty-six Yamamoto left his command ship and handed the battleship Naomen to Captain Fu Liufan for command. He came alone to the captain's room of the aircraft carrier Chicheng and sat down with Nan Yunzhong or two. He looked at his subordinates with a touch of sorrow, not the harshness of the past.
"Nan Yunjun, as I was worried, our period of superiority has passed, and now the United States has stepped out of the shadow of Pearl Harbor's failure." Yamamoto 56 worriedly confided his worries to his men: "Now America The decline has been restored, as long as we stabilize our position, we will have no chance of winning. "
Nan Yun sighed. He has been sighing more times than Yamamoto fifty-six times. As a commander, he knows the disadvantages of the Japanese naval aviation best, so he sighed and worried, but he couldn't think of a good way.
After he sighed, he said helplessly: "Your Excellency, the situation may be more serious than you think. The performance of our military fighter aircraft has been known to Americans. This is beyond doubt. With the reduction of the quality of supplementary pilots, we The results achieved in air combat are getting fewer and fewer, but the losses are getting bigger and bigger. At present, although we have not lost the air dominance on the battlefield, this is the example of Long Xiang ... "
When he talked about the sinking Long Xiang carrier, it was obviously a battleship under his command. The sunken natural heartache: "The Long Xiang example has already shown that our aircraft can no longer ensure that our fleet is invulnerable. . Next time, maybe next time we will fight, we will make preparations for the warship's air defense. "
"I am worried about the Marshall Islands and Wake Island, and even the war situation in Australia." Yamamoto poured Nanyun a cup of tea, and he also poured himself a cup, before continuing: "The joint fleet is not suitable for a short time. In the next battle, these places will have to face the attacks of the US Navy alone. Australia has to say that after all, the area is huge, and it will be difficult for the United States to eat for a while, Wake Island and Marshall Islands ... but it is not easy to say. "
"In any case, we will have to drag the new fighter into service, and the new pilots will be able to speak easily after training." Nan Yunzhong's concerns about Yamamoto were ignored, and he was more worried about the future of the joint fleet: "Necessary At that time, even if these islands were abandoned? "
Everyone knows that the abandonment in his mouth is not the kind of abandonment handed over to the United States, but the kind of abandonment that uses the blood of countless soldiers to procrastinate and fight, and ultimately consumes American troops. The lives of countless soldiers were so ruthlessly abandoned under the collision of the two mouths of the superior.
"I have considered what you said, and the final result, I can't think of a very good countermeasure. So we can only take one step at a time. After all, even as a naval marshal, I can't do one after another. Failure is responsible. "Yamamoto took a sip of tea and slowly said:" This time I reluctantly let the base camp not change my mind. If there is no good result next time, I can only give an explanation to His Majesty the Emperor. "
As soon as Nan Yunzhong put down the cup in his hand, he bowed his head and persuaded: "My Excellency Marshal, you are my most respectable person. The United Fleet cannot be without you. I assure you that when the future is ready, the United Fleet will definitely Won a decisive victory over the American fleet. "
"Okay! Nan Yunjun, I believe you." Yamamoto was so comforted by Nan Yun that he somewhat restored the momentum of the past. He instructed Nan Yun to continue to drink tea, and then he also picked up the tea cup: "General Yongye from the base camp called. It is said that the Navy ’s secret weapons are almost completed. It is estimated that when countering, we can use the latest warships in the world to compete with our enemies. "
"Oh? Marshal, this is a good thing. I heard that the fighter design department led by Hiroshi Jiro has launched several new fighters, several of which are already in test flight and ready for production ... plus the naval The new weapons, our national movement in the Great Japanese Empire, seem to have the ability to fight together. "Nan Yunzhong heard the good news and came to the spirit.
Yamamoto nodded, believing Nan Yun's words. However, the tone when he continued to speak, he was still not too optimistic: "But we don't have much chips in our hands, just enough for us to gamble again."
"That new warship really deserves our high hopes?" When the two ended the conversation, Nan Yun couldn't help but asked curiously.
"It's worth it, otherwise why would it be named" Dawa "?" Yamamoto replied confidently.
