Chapter 640: Giant Fish Deterrence
Between the Sea of Japan and the Sea of Korea, a huge warship led a fleet towards the Tsushima Strait, and Kireev was now the commander of the Admiral of the Far East Fleet, although he was demoted by one rank compared to the original Admiral, and he was more satisfied with being an officer in the army that destroyed the Japanese army in China than in Soviet Russia.
There is no corruption in the army, let alone sports, anyway, as long as he does a good job of military command, he has not worried about other things, originally this time it was just a deterrent, but Xu Fei thought for a while and let them bring six 406 battleship main guns with the fleet to transport over.
Xu Fei, who originally designed the Vladivostok, did not expect that the power of the 406 guns was not enough, so this ship was fully equipped with 14 main guns that were relatively powerful for other countries, and now it has been changed to 650 main guns, so the Japanese fleet Vladivostok is even less worried.
The other eight 406 guns that were dismantled were installed in Atrasovo, and now they are shelling Hokkaido twice a day, and if there are no shells during the day, the Japanese in Hokkaido will not be able to sleep peacefully, and they are afraid that the cannon will bombard the island again in the middle of the night.
Xu Fei chose a better place for them to use these six guns, on Tsushima Island in the middle of the Tsushima Strait, where the narrowest point is only 46 kilometers, these six cannons can normally shoot more than 55 nautical miles on one side, so that Fukuoka, Nagasaki, and Sasebo are all within the range of shelling;
This is another huge pressure on Japan, because there is a group of ships from the Far East in the entire Sea of Japan, and the crisis here is already extremely huge, plus using such a bunch of naval guns as shore defense artillery to block the strait. Japan could not stop on this sea;
If they want to develop better, then Australia is an absolutely good place, forcing the Japanese to make a decision as soon as possible. This is Xu Fei's idea, there was only one giant ship to destroy the Japanese army before, and this little Japan can afford to wait, but now with the Far East Army, the giant fish-class battleship, the pressure on the devils will become extremely huge.
"Yamamoto-kun, Your Excellency Mitsumasa Yonechi, I wonder if you two can solve the growing military pressure on the sea to destroy the Japanese army?" Admiralty of Japan. As the chief of the naval command, King Fushimi Miyahiro Gong looked at the bald head Sanben Fifty-six and the current sea minister in the conference room and asked.
On the surface, the commander-in-chief of this military order was lower than that of the sea minister, but Fushimi Miyahiro was a representative of the imperial family and directly controlled the entire navy, and the sea minister could appoint officials and also mobilize troops. However, all this was subject to the consent of the emperor's representatives, which was the result of a typical imperial system, which was above all else.
As vice minister of the navy, Isoroku Yamamoto was the pursuer and promoter of the strategy of the large air force. He is promoting technical cooperation with Germany. Also met with Ribbentrop and the commander of the German Navy, Erich? Raeder, with the direct participation of Isoroku Yamamoto, transferred the He70's dive bomber technology to Japan;
Later, the Type 99 ship-based critique aircraft, which played a major role in the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, was developed based on this technique;
The Zero fighter is also one of the most successful examples of cooperation with Germany in military aviation, which began to be presided over by Isoroku Yamamoto.
In exchange, Yamamoto, who had become the commander of the fleet in the future, also fully disclosed the skills of his flagship aircraft carrier, the Akagi aircraft carrier, to Germany, which built the aircraft carrier Count Zeppelin.
Originally, Germany did not need these much, but for the aircraft carrier, the German Navy also felt that it needed some. So they exchanged some techniques that were outdated for them with Japan;
These Xu Fei have always been a bystander and will not intervene, and the Japanese army's military strength is not vigorously developed. Their ambitions for aggression and war would not have flown out;
However, the situation at this time seemed very dangerous for Japan, although their naval strength at this time had swelled to a certain scale, and the Japanese navy should have had 10 battleships, 8 aircraft carriers, 18 heavy cruisers, 20 light cruisers, 112 destroyers, and 75 submarines.
However, because of several successive exchanges with the Japanese fleet, it lost two main aircraft carriers, three seaplane carriers, three battleships, and dozens of other ships, which was the greatest loss for the Japanese navy, which was constantly developing, and all the ships under construction were stepping up construction, and it would take about two years to re-form a strong suppressive force;
Since Japan began to use heavy oil as the fuel for warships, most of the current important ships have given up coal as the main energy source, Xu Fei in order to ensure that the Japanese oil exploitation can meet their large-scale warship planning, let Kawashima Yoshiko promote the Japanese army's Southeast Asian combat plan four years in advance;
In addition to the dumping ground for rubber mineral resources and materials, Borneo's oil fields can provide Japan with enough oil every year, so the oil embargo on Japan four years in advance has not affected their development.
Yamamoto Fifty-six was indifferent and shrewd, as he once opposed the war with Soviet Russia and China, he still regarded the United States and Britain as his biggest enemies, and the temporary rise of the Chinese army to destroy the Japanese army he thought was just a flash in the pan;
Large-scale firepower coverage was desirable for everyone, but the destruction of the Japanese army would never be able to sustain their endless firepower by relying only on the three eastern provinces and the east of the Urals, which they considered to be resource-starved, plus Mongolia.
Theoretically, Yamamoto Fifty-Six was absolutely not wrong, the only fault was that he couldn't think that Xu Fei was a cultivator;
Although his system still maintains the cutting-edge weapons that can be exchanged for the early 21st century, the scientific research institute of the Japanese army has completely distorted the scientific and technological development of the world, and many weapons are much more advanced than in the future, which makes Xu Fei feel very shocked.
Without the use of those weapons, Xu Fei dared to guarantee that he would compete with the major countries of the world according to his existing combat strength, not to mention that the large iron ore mines discovered in Siberia could meet his expanding war situation.
Putting aside the issue of the population of the Japanese army for the time being, the first thing Yamamoto Fifty-six did after hearing the inquiry of King Hiroko Fushimi Miyashi was to think of the two giant battleships and three large battleships that destroyed the Japanese army;
In the Pacific Ocean, the appearance of these five giants will completely suppress all countries, including the Mi Guoyan, who has a huge number of warships;
The reason why the people of the United States did not move for a long time was to wait for a large-scale naval battle between the Japanese fleet and the destruction of the Japanese fleet, and in the end, no matter who won or lost, the Japanese fleet would suffer huge losses;
In that way, the Pacific Fleet of the Mi Guoyan can come to be a fisherman, and finally turn Japan, which wants to dominate the Pacific Ocean and even the entire world, into an isolated island again, which is a result that Yamamoto Isoroku, who is bent on defeating Miying, absolutely does not want to see.
