Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

As soon as Jiang Haoran's words fell, the war room was filled with exclamations. The casualties were reduced by [-]%. Nimitz.

"Prepare for wargame deduction!" Nimitz's expression was extremely painful, and his hands were clenched into fists. Although he did not approve of Jiang Haoran's plan in his heart, the eyes of his subordinates told him that they believed it. If they did not show effective persuasion, I am afraid that the soldiers will not accept it.

There was a rush of confusion in the war room, and the general staff began to nervously prepare for the war game deduction, but Jiang Haoran took this opportunity to walk up to Nimitz and said softly: "Don't be superstitious that your battleship 'Iowa' can fight against the island army. The 'Yamato' and 'Musashi' battleships, I heard that these two battleships are in their first assault fleet this time, don't try to confront them head-on, or you will suffer a lot."

Nimitz was taken aback, and then he said excitedly: "You doubt the shipbuilding capabilities of our country? You know, the battleship 'Iowa' was built specifically for the 'Yamato'. I never doubted this point. .”

Jiang Haoran said: "I have never doubted your shipbuilding ability, but your information is wrong. The caliber of the main gun of the 'Yamato' is 460 mm, not the 406 mm you know. Its armor thickness can withstand its own The 460mm main gun strikes at a distance of 20000-30000 meters, and the middle deck can also withstand 3900 kilograms of heavy aerial bombs dropped from a height of 800 meters. The Type 460 armor-piercing projectile it uses weighs 2000 kilograms, and the maximum range is as high as 560 409 meters, 25.4mm vertical armor can be easily penetrated at a distance of 406 meters. On the other hand, your "Iowa", the thickness of the main armor belt is only 1000mm and 24mm steel lining, 700mm naval gun, and the weight of the armor-piercing shell fired It weighs 8000 kilograms, and has a maximum range of 509 meters. Only at a distance of 8000 meters can it penetrate [-] millimeters of vertical armor. That is to say, if the 'Iowa' wants to penetrate its The armor must be within a distance of [-] meters, and the 'Yamato' can penetrate the armor of the 'Iowa' at a distance of [-] meters, so it is very difficult to win against you head-on. "

Nimitz was full of horror, looking at Jiang Haoran as if he had seen a ghost. These data are top secrets of all countries. He does not know whether the "Yamato" is accurate, but he still knows about the "Iowa". It is conceivable that Jiang Haoran's heart was shocked by what Jiang Haoran said, but he has no time to care about how Jiang Haoran got this information. Of course, even if he asks Jiang Haoran, he may not tell him. To be honest, it would be better to save this time for war game deduction. The idea of ​​letting the "Iowa" and "Yamato" compete for strength suddenly wavered.

After a tense deduction, the result came out very quickly. When it was announced, everyone in the room was stunned. Although the actual combat and deduction had a big deviation, the result of the deduction was exactly the same as Jiang Haoran’s budget , If you use the "flying geese" against the enemy, compared with Nimitz's "T-horizontal tactics", it will reduce the battle damage by [-]%.

War game deduction is a complicated process of rehearsal. A dozen of staff generals arranged troops for nearly an hour and worked hard to calculate the result. Jiang Haoran was able to agree with them. If this is just a guess, it would be too amazing.

??

Around noon, Jiang Haoran, Nimitz and other command staff boarded the "Hornet" aircraft carrier as scheduled, and the Iowa drove to the front of the battlefield at full speed.

Time flies, and soon it is four o'clock in the afternoon, and there is only one hour left before the set time to start the war.

The distance between the enemy and the Third Fleet is only seventy or eighty nautical miles, and even the submarines in front have already had close encounters with them.

The fighter jets of the first commando of the island army were seriously damaged, and they did not take the initiative to launch an air strike. The third fleet of the Mi army was also unable to attack them because there were no torpedo planes and bombers on the aircraft carrier. The fighter jets and reconnaissance planes of both sides They just kept a close watch on the other side's movements at the outpost, and no one had the intention of crossing the other side's defense zone on their own initiative.

This move can be said that both sides have their own ulterior motives. The Mi Army's intention is self-evident, but the Island Army wants to use their ships and guns to fight close combat.

They do not have an advantage in air battles with the F6F Hellcats of the Mi Army, and it is impossible for them to consume all their air power in the first battle. Then the next capture of Midway Island is purely a joke. Aircraft have become the dominant force in naval warfare. They are happy that the Mi Army does not have torpedo planes and dive bombers capable of attacking. If they can take advantage of the number of ships and firepower to wipe out the third fleet in front of them, the most important thing is to destroy the Mi Army. Aircraft carrier, let more than 100 Hellcats crash into the sea, and the next battle will be much easier to fight.

Although the combat power of the f6f Hellcats is terrifying, the island army believes that the more than one hundred of the three aircraft carriers in front of them are definitely their backbone. After all, they are the latest weapons developed, and the number cannot be too many.

At 45:[-] p.m., in the war room of the USS Hornet.

Nimitz and a group of staff generals have already begun to work nervously. The battle has not yet started, and there is a faint smell of gunpowder in the war room.

Jiang Haoran is now at leisure, drinking coffee and chatting with Mei Xiang, Mei Xin, and Zhuang Yingying on the sofa beside him, as if he is out of it, a bit out of tune with the tense atmosphere in the room.

Suddenly, there was a lot of noise in the headquarters. Some staff officers exclaimed that the battle had already begun. The enemy ship was only 406 kilometers away from the outpost of the Third Fleet. With the assistance of the commander and the commander, they fired at the island army fleet and fired the first round of salvo. Immediately, the twelve 356mm main guns on the battleship "Pennsylvania" and the artillery on several heavy cruisers also opened fire. In the artillery attack, two shells hit an enemy cruiser. The enemy ship immediately smoked and blazed into the sky, and the hull tilted heavily. It was only a matter of time before it sank.

There was thunderous applause in the war room, and Nimitz even took the time to glance at Jiang Haoran, with a slightly smug expression on his face.

At this time, Jiang Haoran frowned into the word "Chuan". Nimitz did not accept his overall plan. While implementing the "flying geese", he even followed up with the "bow against the enemy" in its entirety.

Maybe it was because of his unconvinced heart that made him put all the heavy fireships at the front, and his subjective consciousness of fighting the Japanese fleet was obvious, but Jiang Haoran knew that the sweetness in front of him was nothing at all. Next, Nimitz would have paid dearly for his recklessness.
