Chapter 2437 The Last Chance
Half a year has passed since the Timor Sea naval battle. Half a year, whether it is long or short, is enough to change many things.The Japanese made a mistake here. Affected by the almost complete annihilation of Nagumo's Yamato aircraft carrier fleet, the Japanese's attitude towards the Pacific Fleet has evolved from extreme contempt at the beginning to deep fear.This change in mentality not only happened to senior Japanese navy generals such as Yamamoto 56, but also to those Japanese sailors and junior officers who feared learning from the Pacific Fleet.As long as they hear that the opponent is a student army, they will feel a sense of fear in their hearts, so the battle that must have been won will also be lost.Before the start of the Timor Sea naval battle, which one was stronger and weaker in terms of naval power between China and Japan?Even Ouyang Yun thought that although the Pacific Fleet had grown up, it was not enough to challenge the Japanese Combined Fleet.And even after the naval battle in the Timor Sea, if the Japanese combined fleet is really fully assembled, it will still be able to firmly suppress the Pacific Fleet.You must know that at that time, there were not many new weapons equipped with the Pacific Fleet, such as ship-to-ship missiles and air-to-ship missiles. If the Japanese really devoted their efforts to the United Fleet to learn from the Pacific Fleet for a decisive battle, even if they could not win, they would definitely be able to give Hit hard.And as long as serious damage is caused, with the shipbuilding capabilities of China and Japan at that time, the Japanese can fully restore the pre-war size of the joint fleet in at most two years. What can the cadet army do in two years?At most four aircraft carrier fleets can be built successfully.

Eleven years later, during the United Nations celebrations to celebrate the 11th anniversary of the victory of World War II, an American military historian once raised such a question, which immediately aroused widespread discussion.The Americans have reason to be puzzled. If the Japanese combined fleet and the Pacific Fleet were to lose both sides at that time, then the US Pacific Fleet would definitely have a chance to be reborn from the ashes. "The Japanese made a foolish trick, and as a result, the Chinese began to dominate the Pacific. If, I say if, history repeats itself, will the Japanese still do it?" the military historian wrote in his own So stated in the preface to his book "The Pacific War".

The Japanese missed their last chance.And half a year for the Pacific Fleet means that there are nearly 3000 more ship-to-ship missiles and nearly [-] more ship-to-air missiles in the fleet's reserve warehouse, which means that they have the ability to fight against the Japanese combined fleet. capital.In Chongqing, what the Americans, Soviet Russians, and British saw were arsenals that had just begun to take shape or were under construction; Any one of them has more than [-] employees.Thanks to Fox Tong's contribution, the Xuebing Army did an excellent job of keeping the core secrets secret. Even until the end of the war, Western countries did not know how much production capacity China's military industry had.Therefore, at the first military parade after the end of World War II, when thousands of missiles, fighter planes, and new tanks passed under the rostrum, Roosevelt, Stalin, Churchill, and Ambers, They were all completely shocked.

The decision-making team of the Learning Pacific Fleet led by Chen Shichang naturally contributed to the reason why the Learning Pacific Fleet was able to defeat the powerful Japanese Yamato aircraft carrier fleet in the Timor Sea Battle, and the greatest credit, of course, belonged to the missile speedboat unit.In this battle, the number of Japanese ships sunk by the guided-missile speedboats was second. Its biggest role was to completely disrupt the deployment of the Japanese army, causing chaos in the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet.So, is the missile speedboat tactic invincible?This is by no means the case, at least in Ouyang Yun's mind, there are three sets of mature methods for this tactic.Method one, submarine tactics; method two, submarine plus torpedo boat tactics; method three, high pressure tactics.

Submarine tactics and submarine plus torpedo boat tactics are relatively cheap. As long as large-scale submarine and torpedo boat troops are deployed on the battlefield in advance, they can intercept enemy missile speedboat troops when they enter the battlefield.The cost of high-pressure tactics is relatively high, but the current strength of the combined fleet of Japan and Japan can still do it.Toshiichiro Koizumi also thought of these three targeting tactics, both of which are traversers, but when implementing them, he had already defined the United Fleet as a weaker side in his mind, which led him to give up the first two tactics and focus on attacking High pressure tactics.Whether it is Yamamoto 56 or Koizumi Toshiichiro, they still look at the Pacific Fleet with contempt, but deep down, they have a completely different attitude.This kind of inconsistency determines that when they implement high-pressure tactics, they have gone astray from the beginning-special attack tactics, which can be called tactics in a better way, are actually suicide. It depends on luck to kill the enemy.To be fair, because of the characteristics of the Japanese, special attack tactics or suicide tactics are suitable for them.However, because this tactic itself is a tactic of showing weakness, it is a self-protection method that the weak will only adopt when they have no choice, so it has fallen behind from the beginning.

It doesn't matter if you are inferior, as long as you can kill the enemy in exchange for victory.However, the gap in technology and the gap in tactical concepts cannot be completely offset by this tactic. Therefore, when the Pacific Fleet is strong enough to counteract this tactic, the Japanese will adopt this tactic again. That is not killing the enemy, but suicidal.

Half a year after the flag died down, the Japanese came again aggressively with special attack tactics, and at the beginning they really did a lot of damage to the Pacific Fleet.Like the Pacific Fleet, the mobile fleet BJ under the command of Bian Jingdao is still at the forefront. Bian Jingdao led the fleet to go on another expedition to Guadalcanal with satisfaction. He originally thought it would be an easy victory trip, so he felt relaxed.This also increased the loss of the BJ mobile fleet to a certain extent. When the first wave of Japanese submarines appeared, he thought that the Japanese army was implementing latent tactics, and did not attract much attention. BJ Mobile Fleet was originally responsible for clearing the channel for the main fleet and driving out enemy submarines, so the department's anti-submarine capability is still very strong.It's just that this kind of anti-submarine combat capability may be useful for conventional submarines, but it has little effect on this kind of special attack submarine that bumps into it without saying a word.

The special attack submarine designed by Koizumi Toshiichiro is divided into two types, one is a large-scale long-distance submarine responsible for launching special attack torpedoes, and the other is a special attack torpedo-type blasting submarine that undertakes special attack missions.Among them, the blasting submarine specially strengthens the strength of the shell at the speed of water navigation, and its shell is hard enough to resist the bombardment of 180 mm shells within a distance of one thousand meters.As a result, once bitten by this type of submarine and surfaced to the surface, the light destroyers and missile speedboats of the Xuebing Army actually have only one way to escape.
