Invincible from the sword

Chapter 413 Must find the place
According to Zhang Lei's suggestion, Nimitz immediately gave Fletcher an order to retreat.

The safety of the fleet must be guaranteed.

According to Zhang Lei's analysis, the Japanese army who was beaten into shit will definitely frantically look for their fleet for a decisive battle.

It may even launch a large-scale suicide attack.

Zhang Lei knew too well about the Japanese army.

It feels normal to win.

If you lose, you will immediately feel a huge insult.

Must get back on the field.

This kind of restless thinking is the same from the navy of the island country to the army of the island country.

If the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse country is strong enough, then this behavior of the Japanese army is completely giving away people's heads.

But the current Pacific Fleet itself is weak.

Can't afford it at all.

So retreat is the most correct choice.

For Zhang Lei's analysis, Nimitz agrees very much.

Although he didn't know much about the Japanese army, the Battle of Midway sank three Japanese aircraft carriers in one fell swoop.

Such a record is enough to make Nimitz look at Zhang Lei with admiration.

Even up to now, he didn't quite understand Zhang Lei's battle plan.

So Nimitz made an important decision to hand over the entire Midway fleet to the command of Spruance.

Fletcher was temporarily stripped of his command.

When the telegram was sent to the fleet, Fletcher himself was taken aback.

My mind buzzed for a moment.

watt! ?
My command has been taken away?

Fletcher looked at the telegram, completely confused about what was going on.

He was preparing to attack again and destroy the remaining Japanese fleet in one fell swoop.

In Fletcher's view, now is a good opportunity to completely kill the Japanese fleet.

He has three aircraft carriers in his hand, while the Japanese army has only one left.

In other words, his carrier-based aircraft is three times that of the Japanese army.

All the Japanese aircraft carriers and battleships would be finished if they rushed over to bomb one round.

He really couldn't understand why Nimitz would cancel his command at this time.

But depression is depression.

This order is still to be executed.

So Fletcher reluctantly handed over the command to Spruance.

Spruance hastily ordered the fleet to retreat.

The huge Pacific Fleet retreated at full speed under the command of Spruance.

When the aircraft on the Japanese aircraft carrier Hiryu flew to the designated sea area, they saw nothing.

He had no choice but to fly back.

As for the attack on Midway...

Forget it.

Now that the Japanese fleet has been bombed like this, it has already hurt its vitality.

Even if Midway was attacked, victory would not be achieved.

In desperation, Nagumo Chuichi could only order the fleet to retreat.

Inside the Japanese Combined Fleet Headquarters, Yamamoto 56 is playing chess with his Chief of Staff Yuhuan.

He looked very calm.

Behind him is a huge table.

Above is a chart.

On the chart, there are various wooden warship models.

Five or six Japanese naval staff officers were drawing pictures with their buttocks pouted.

A ghost major dressed in black ran in.

With a look of horror on his face: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, General Nagumo Chuichi's telegram!

We were ambushed by the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse country in the waters of Midway Island.

The aircraft carriers Soryu, Kaga, and Akagi were sunk.Three hundred planes and 110 pilots were lost! ! "

Na, Nani! ? ? ?

As soon as the telegram was read out, all the devils in the command room were taken aback.

The boss with staring eyes.

I can't believe it at all.

Yu Huanchan, who was opposite Yamamoto 56, also had an ugly and frightening expression.

If it wasn't for a layer of belly, his heart would have come right away.

idiot.

The loss is so big!
Before the start of the war, under the order of Yamamoto 56, Yu Huanchen conducted three deduction.

The result of the deduction is that one or two aircraft carriers will be lost.

And it wiped out the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse country.

Even with the result of such a deduction, Yu Huanchen did not dare to tell Yamamoto 56.

Instead, it was directly modified to lose one or two battleships or cruisers.

But Nagumo Chuichi's telegram said that he lost three aircraft carriers! ! !

my mother...

I was stunned, okay?
Yu Huanchan, who had a very ugly face, felt that breathing was a sin.

This time, he seems to have cheated Yamamoto 56.

Yu Huantang asked Yamamoto 56 cautiously: "Your Excellency Commander, what should we do next?
Do you want to continue to attack? "

Yamamoto 56 is calm and breezy.

Unperturbed.

In fact, my heart has already broken down.

If it weren't for his good mentality, Yamamoto 56 would have already flown.

After making the last move, Yamamoto 56 sighed: "Old Yu, order Nagumo Chuichi to retreat completely.

This battle must be kept strictly confidential.

No one is allowed to divulge information. "

Yu Huan said tremblingly, "The island country's headquarters..."

The meaning of Yu Huanzhuan is obvious, this time he was beaten so badly, the devils at the bottom can be deceived, but you have to report to the headquarters of the island country, right?
At that time, who will take the responsibility?
I am only 80 years old, and I am still young!
I don't want to be fired! !

It would be best if Yamamoto 56 could take the blame.

But if Yamamoto 56 didn't have this awareness, then he must be entangled with Yuhuan.

Yamamoto 56 stood up and put on his black hat.

"I will explain to the base camp of the island country.

Old Yu, the United Fleet of the island nations will get rid of it in the future! "

After finishing speaking, Yamamoto 56 bowed to Yu Huantang.

Yu Huanchang was a little at a loss what to do.

Yamamoto 56's head is in a mess now.

The failure of the Battle of Midway Island directly stunned him.

Originally, he planned to take the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Country in one fell swoop this time, and then directly occupy Hawaii.

I didn't expect to be beaten like this.

It's over.

Yamamoto 56 walked out of the command room and looked at the dark sea outside.

He instantly felt that their island country seemed to be dying.

This time his United Fleet suffered such a huge loss, it would be very difficult for him to gallop across the Pacific Ocean again.

Unless their island country can concentrate the power of the whole country and build a few more aircraft carriers.

Otherwise, their advantage in the Pacific Ocean will soon disappear.

In the name of the commander of the joint fleet, Yamamoto 56 sent a combat telegram to the base camp of the island country.

Ask for punishment.

And it is recommended to completely block the news.

In order to cover up the failure, Yamamoto 56 also suggested that the base camp of the island country, after the fleet returned to Tokyo Bay, let the devils in Tokyo hold a grand parade with lanterns.

After returning to the port, all the soldiers of the entire fleet were transferred to other troops.

We must ensure that the news does not leak out.

After receiving the telegram from Yamamoto 56, the base camp of the island nation was boiling.

The leader of the island nation, Tojo, is sleeping.

I slept very well.

Hoo hoo.

Even grinding his teeth.

Buckle buckle.

Buckle buckle.

A devil's voice outside the door remembered: "Your Excellency, the latest battle situation at Midway Island.

Admiral Hattori Naotomi, Minister of the Navy of the island nation, please go over immediately! "

Ok?
Tojo sat up in a daze.

Hey?

The ghost woman next to him said: "My lord, General Hattori Naotomi invites you to come over.

Said it was the latest battle situation at Midway Island. "

Midway?
When Tojo heard these three words, he immediately stood up.

Flammulina velutipes moved under the blowing of the heater.The ghost woman next to her couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Tojo didn't dare to be careless, and hurried to the base camp.

Inside the base camp, Naotomi Hattori and others have arrived.

Everyone pointed at Naotomi Hattori's nose and cursed vigorously.

And Naotomi Hattori, drooping his head, didn't dare to fart.

Really shameless.

After receiving the telegram from Yamamoto 56, Naotomi Hattori thought he had read it wrong.

Actually lost three aircraft carriers?
It also killed the best carrier-based aircraft pilots of more than 100 island countries! !

Such a loss is a very serious blow to the combined fleet of the island nation.

As the Minister of the Navy of the island country, Naotomi Hattori knew very well.

Aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft pilots are the most important weight to dominate the Pacific Ocean.

It's all gone now.

This directly reduced the entire United Fleet by half.

The entire combined island nation fleet has only ten aircraft carriers and more than 200 carrier-based aircraft pilots.

These more than 200 pilots were all selected by thousands of people.

All are elite pilots.

Now it's half gone.

There is simply no way to refill.

Hata Shunroku was the most excited.

Hata Shunroku, who occupies the commanding heights, has been talking obsessively for more than an hour.

The meaning is only one, the Battle of Midway should not have happened.

It is the most correct choice to invest all resources in the Southern Expeditionary Army.

Hata Toshiro blushed.

Naomi Hattori's clothes were wet with spittle.

"What did I say?

What did I say! ?
We should never have attacked Midway.

Well now, the entire fleet was almost wiped out.

If these resources were invested in the Southern Expedition, we would have taken over the entire Kangaroo Country! !

Now Anan Weiji's No.15 Army has established a firm foothold in the Kangaroo Country.

However, due to the difficulty in replenishing logistical supplies, his troops advanced very slowly.

Belly gentleman.

I suggest that your naval forces should cooperate with our army forces in the future.

As long as you occupy the Kangaroo Country, part of the credit goes to your navy. "

The finance minister of the island country, Fujiwara Norika, quickly answered: "Mr. Hattori, the island country has run out of money.

It is no longer possible to build a new aircraft carrier.

The Grand National has stopped lending to us.

As far as the current funds are concerned, the battleship Yamato can barely be built.

I think what Lao Hata said is quite reasonable.

We should set our goal on the kangaroo country.

In that way, the financial pressure on our island nation will be much smaller. "
