"Insisting on inside operations, there is no way out. In New Guinea we will be completely overwhelmed by the strong frontal advantages of the US navy and army, and it is impossible to give up New Guinea, because the west of New Guinea is a series of consecutive islands. With each other within the support of the aircraft, the Americans can easily cross the past and then point directly to the core of the Japanese colony."

"It is impossible for us to achieve a complete victory in the military. If we adhere to the principle that the military is serving politics, then our offensive is more prolonged and consumed, and we disrupt the opponent's strategic deployment through active attacks. This is the only correct way. When you are weak, you must take the initiative to attack to find a way out. If it is just defense, then after everything falls into the opponent's rhythm, it will be the end of being beaten. There is no way." Betty explained.

Does Betty's explanation make sense? Of course there is! During the war, the German navy’s actions proved that it is the best choice to attack when it is weak. For example, Count Spey took the initiative to attack the French fleet and opened up the battle of the Mediterranean. In the North Sea, Ruprech After the Battle of the Dorger Sandbars commanded by the Crown Prince half-dead the British battlecruiser squadron, he at least gained the safety of the North Sea’s waters close to his side, and then after ambushing the Thomas fleet, it laid the absolute advantage of his fast fleet. Before the launch of these two battles, the German High Seas Fleet was a terrible one, but it relied on subtle tactics to restore the situation a little bit, and finally turned the advantage into a victory.

"This argument is very pessimistic," said Yasuo Shimura.

"Reality is very pessimistic." Betty said.

"Well, let's not discuss strategy, let's just talk about tactics. What is the core goal of this attack? How can we achieve this goal." Shimura Hayao said.

“Don’t think about attacking ports. Most ports close to the island of New Guinea are not indispensable in the US military’s system. The Americans have established a net-like supply model. Destroying a certain point will not cause serious problems. The consequences, and Hawaii, don’t think about it. We used to be eggs and rocks. The land-based air force in Hawaii is enough to pose a major threat to us. So in this battle, unless there are certain specific positions, we We will avoid these islands. We must hide in the deep sea, as far as possible from the US military islands."

"On the long transportation line from the west coast of the United States to the front line, there are a large number of transport ships transporting supplies and military power to the frontline US forces, so transport ships are the easiest target to attack, and if we can destroy the troop transport ships, then the value is undoubtedly The biggest one is more useful than killing tens of thousands of tons of materials. Therefore, in the early stages of the battle, our task is to attack the high-value transport fleet. Use our speed advantage to quickly annihilate the opponent, and then quickly turn in and hide again. Deep in the ocean."

"Of course, you mentioned a problem before. If you simply attack the transport ship, the damage to the Americans will be limited. Because we have limited time at sea, the Americans can also evade our attacks by reconnaissance or changing routes. Our attacks The range is always limited. The Americans can even go directly into the South Pacific and go around the island of New Guinea. In short, this kind of attack will become less and less efficient over time. And we have to face the encirclement and suppression of the US Navy's fleet. , In this case, our attack spearhead needs to be changed a bit.” Betty said.

"Ultimately, our target is still the battleships and aircraft carriers of the U.S. Navy, because the construction period of these battleships is very long. Only by attacking these battleships that the Americans cannot easily add, we have the opportunity to delay the battle! Especially the aircraft carrier itself. The fragility caused the extremely easy to lose. Therefore, in the subsequent stage of the battle, we will eventually have a battle with a certain U.S. Navy fleet to concentrate on attacking fast battleships and aircraft carriers to ensure the tactical advantage of the combined fleet!" Betty Said.

"The reason why I believe that the current naval battle can be fought is that the number of US fast battleships is not enough, and the replenishment speed of new fast battleships is too slow. Although the replenishment speed of aircraft carriers is relatively fast, the Americans just lost 4 An aircraft carrier, which greatly reduces the number of aircraft carriers that the United States can use, and because of various reasons, it is difficult for their aircraft carriers to be assembled!"

"So, my goal this time is to sink 3 aircraft carriers at the cost of one aircraft carrier. In this case, the U.S. Navy will have to wait for the next batch of aircraft carriers to be in place before re-establishing its superiority, and this will undoubtedly delay the battle. More than a month."

"What about battleships?" As an officer who had experienced the great naval battle between Japan and Russia, Yasuo Shimamura still obsessed about battleships, always thinking about when he could sink a few more new US naval battleships.

"It's very difficult to sink a battleship. The bombers now can only take heavy damage. If you want to sink, then you need to fight between battleships. When battleships attack, the damage is relative. We can hit the opponent hard, and the opponent It can also injure us, and the most important thing is that the new American battleships are not weaker than the Nagato-class in combat effectiveness. They fight in the waters controlled by the US military. Once the battleship's power or control system is damaged~www.mtlnovel. com~ We may lose a precious capital ship, in this case we can't afford to replace it." Betty said helplessly.

"That's really a shame." For Betty, although Hayao Shimamura had some regrets, he didn't insist on it. After all, fighting a force not weaker than his own in the enemy's home court was always a taboo for breaking the battle. However, if the situation is really favorable, Shimura Hayao is still willing to give it a try.

"From your words, it seems to emphasize that in the final battle with the U.S. Navy, aircraft carriers were mainly used to attack the opponent's aircraft carriers, and battleship engagements were to be avoided as much as possible. Then I would like to ask, if battleships are not used for the final engagement, So just for escort, are there too many 6 battleships? Some are overkill, right?" Shimura Hayao asked.

"How can it be overkill? In fact, in my plan, battleships are the main force in attacking the U.S. transport fleet, and in ordinary battles, aircraft carriers try not to participate in the battle!" As soon as Betty said this, let Shimamura Hayao was extremely surprised. This tactic of using an aircraft carrier to fight a decisive battle and using a battleship to break the deal is really incredible!
