Chapter 2562 I’ll Do It 1
"This plan is very bad. It is very likely to ruin the entire United Fleet overnight, and even the national destiny of the Japanese Empire." Betty said after throwing the document in her hand on the table.
"The war taught me many things, the most important of which is to simplify the plan as much as possible, because the more complex the plan, the easier it is to cause accidents. And the other is to never fight the German fleet when the numbers are almost even. You guys. I don’t know how terrifying the German fleet is, but I can responsibly say here that any Japanese squadron will pay a heavy price if it encounters Su Xiong! Even the six Fuso-class battleships are no exception."
"Looking at the history of war, when the fleets of both sides were almost equal in number, no fleet had ever defeated the Germans. Even in the final decisive battle, General Thomas besieged Hipper with an absolutely superior force, and the opponent was still stubborn. It entangled the most elite fleet of the British Empire. And Su Xiong experienced many battles with weak forces in the Indian Ocean."
"If you think about it carefully, there are now 4 Bavaria-class battleships! 4 battleships more powerful than the Fuso-class! And think about the time when Su Xiong used 2 Scharnhorst-type battleships to fight against your country's 2 batches of 4 battleships With your performance at that time, I want to say, how can you have such confidence to dare to divide your forces to face the Su Xiong fleet? If our team encounters it, it will probably be entangled, and if it is a King Kong-type battlecruiser, it may be directly Is it all done at once? You know the tragic outcome of King Kong’s close relatives facing the Bavarians in the Battle of Dogger Sandbank.” Betty’s words were like a pendant that made Suo Shimamura’s heart bleed.
However, Suo Shimamura really had a way to refute it. After all, the battle in the Indian Ocean really engraved Suo's name on the heart of the Japanese Navy! The Japanese Navy lost very simply, without any reason! You let others sink two battleships under an absolute advantage. What else can you say? Even after the war, the Japanese Navy believed that even under the most advantageous situation, the Japanese fleet should not fight against the German fleet of the same size!
Now the question is, why do the Japanese do this when they know that once they encounter Su Xiong, the Japanese fleet will be in a very dangerous situation? The first reason is naturally because of luck! They believed that Su Xiong's fleet might not be able to catch them in bad weather conditions on the vast sea. The second reason is really just because attacking ordinary ship anchorages does not require the entire combined fleet. So it is suitable to attack more targets if separated.
"Okay, let's not talk about those worthless nonsense now. I just want to ask you one thing. Is the United Fleet really going to attack with all its forces this time? Is your country really willing to bear a certain amount of losses to severely damage the opponent? Determination?" Betty asked.
"That's natural. Every time the Japanese combined fleet attacks, it goes to the battlefield with the belief of victory and preparation for sacrifice. In today's severe situation, we have no choice!" Shimamura Suo said.
"Okay then, I have a rather radical attack plan here. If our plan succeeds, then it is possible to reverse the entire battle!" Betty said, signaling to the assistant next to him, who then opened the cloth. The curtain reveals a large-scale map,
This is exactly the situation map of the US military in the New Ireland Island area. The yellow markers represent US Army units, the blue markers represent the US Navy, and the green markers represent the transport fleet. The number of markers indicates the scale.
"Does your army mean to prepare to attack these peripheral nodes?" Betty stood up and pointed at several berths on the periphery of the US military with the putter in his hand.
"It's like this. Even if we are covered by bad weather conditions, we will never dare to go too deep into the depth of the US military." Shimamura Suo said.
"Your behavior makes me feel like I am doing great things without sacrificing my life, and seeing small profits and forgetting my life!" The irony in Betty's words made Shimamura Hayao feel very uncomfortable, but good self-cultivation, and the British Royal Fleet The glory of the past still made him quietly listen to Betty's words.
"Since your country has chosen to focus on the entire combined fleet, our goals must not be limited to a few small berths on the edge. Your Excellency has the consciousness to do something big, but you have chosen a very ordinary goal because of fear. This is very bad, and if you are just greedy for some small profits, then the conservative method I proposed before is obviously better." Betty explained his evaluation of the Japanese Navy just logically and rigorously.
"Directly attacking the anchorage in the core area is courting death. You just said that the Suxiong fleet is a very difficult wolf pack. There will be more reconnaissance units of the US fleet in the core area, and our danger will be greater!" Shimamura Suxiong! argued.
"Yes, if it is just a simple impact, then it is no different from death, but then again, if it is just simple recklessness, instead of using tricks and feints to confuse the opponent, then we, the commanders, will What do you do?" Betty said with a smile.
"Actually, the combined fleet is only worried about one situation, that is, the American and American fleets encounter the Japanese fleet at the same time! Otherwise, whether we are facing the Americans or the Germans alone, we don't have to worry too much, because the Americans cannot catch up with us. , and the Germans can't beat us." Betty said.
"However, Su Xiong is one of the best fast fleet commanders in the world. He has a keen sense of smell. Once he bites us, it will be difficult for us to escape, and then the American fleet will follow. Su Xiong is the light cavalry, responsible for Entanglement and interference, and the U.S. fleet is the heavily armored cavalry." Shimamura Suo said.
"And the most important thing is that Su Xiong has rich experience and is not so easy to fool. Well, now the question is, why don't we fool the Americans? If when encountering the German fleet, the American fleet cannot arrive If so, then tell me, what are we worried about?" Betty asked with a smile.
"Deceive the American fleet? Your idea is very good, but it is not very practical. You should know that Su Xiong is commanding a fast fleet. He should be the core reconnaissance force of the entire US fleet. Once encountering a situation, first of all The one who rushed to the battlefield should be Su Xiong's fleet, or the latter was originally responsible for this reconnaissance mission. Facing such a cunning opponent, it was not easy to seduce or get rid of him. He would not be easily fooled. "Shimamura Hayao said.
