"Commander, if we let the Navy attack the Combined Fleet after the landing war, will it be too reluctant?!" Su Zongzhe was a little hesitant, although now the Wehrmacht Navy has a certain strength.

But to call the combined fleet head-on, Su Zongzhe still thought that there was little hope of victory. If the Navy is badly damaged, it will take an extremely long time to recover. And if the battle is lost, even the Wehrmacht Navy will be completely destroyed. The consequences will be even more severe!

In Su Zongzhe's opinion, this is extremely cost-effective. Yes, he absolutely did not approve of this plan.

"Uncle Qiliu, the development of our navy has reached a stage. I've even experienced actual combat a few times, but I've never experienced this face-to-face, hard-to-face naval battle......"

Su Zongzhen didn't say anything, he knew that what his commander-in-chief said was the truth. The navy has indeed reached a bottleneck, and they need a major naval battle to prove their strength.

The sneak attack of the small group of troops before gave them a lot of experience in naval warfare. Subsequently, the navy continued to expand. Although the training is more rigorous, after all, there is no real naval battle to train the troops.

The larger the fleet, the more important it is to coordinate with each ship and each ship class. Where should the aircraft carrier be on the battlefield, and how should the cruiser protect the aircraft carrier.

How to deal with submarine forces, how to cross enemy ships in the shè strike position. How to protect one's own aircraft carrier in the bombing and sweeping shè of enemy aircraft, how to coordinate fighters and bombers between escort and attack...... And so on, these are the problems that the Wehrmacht Navy combined fleet has to face.

When there is only one aircraft carrier, all the coordinating ships can operate around one aircraft carrier. And now the Wehrmacht's operational aircraft carriers have reached three.

So how to coordinate a larger combat force between the entire fleet. This has become a problem that the Navy must face and has to face.

"The main force of the Navy, although we don't want to mention it, he is indeed a nightmare in our hearts." Tu Mengben stood up and looked at Su Zongzhe's words word by word.

"We believe that none of us will ever forget Jia Wu. I know that none of us have forgotten Dadonggou! There are endless loyal spirits watching us, and our navy needs a hearty victory if it needs to break its nightmare! ”

"This victory did not come from a sneak attack. It's not from anyone else, it's something we need to get it with our own hands! Tu Mengben said, slowly standing up straight.

"There are risks in any war. Wouldn't we dare to attack because of the risks?! I know that the navy is still very strong now. It's just an aircraft carrier. There are as many as eight ships in the combined fleet of the Navy! ”

"The rest of the cruisers, battleships are at least fifty, yes! With our fleet, which consisted of no more than three aircraft carriers, less than thirty cruisers, and only twelve battleships. It's extremely slim to win a head-to-head battle with them......"

Tu Mengben's eyes turned red, but he saw him stand up and said in a deep voice: "But, we must fight this one!" If we don't even have the courage to fight this battle, even the most powerful navy is just a shelf! ”

"This one is down. We may lose. It may even be wiped out. But as long as we can inflict heavy damage on the Navy, we will be able to fight this bloody breath! The future Wehrmacht Navy will not scare anyone! ”

Saying that, Tu Mengben grinned and said, "In the past, Uncle Cheng Zhang was not allowed to fight, because we were still eggs at that time. The fleet of rì himself is stone. At that time, the only way to fight was to hit a stone with an egg. ”

"But now, we're rocks ourselves. Even if we are smaller, we are still a stone after all. Tu Mengben looked at Su Zongzhe. said: "It's time to be tough!" ”

Su Zongzhen was silent for a while and didn't say a word. He admits that the Wehrmacht Navy does need a major naval battle to validate its training.

However, the huge gap in the number of fleets and combat experience was an insurmountable gap in Su Zongzhe's eyes after all. If it is a hard fight, then the risk that the navy will have to take can be imagined.

"Sixth Uncle Qi, I know what you're thinking...... Tu Mengben smiled slightly, and said, "But what we have to see is that this war is about to end......"

"The harsh winter and high-intensity fighting in Moscow have already destroyed the offensive capabilities of the Germans. They are just holding on to the death now, and the huge consumption of materials and troops is not something they can fight. ”

"And their allies are either a bunch of useless mules and horses or waiting to die. The rest of them is difficult to support. Defeat is only a matter of time. ”

Su Zongzhe nodded, this is also the conclusion reached by the General Staff after doing countless battle deductions. The Germans did not take Moscow before winter, and this was their biggest mistake.

The Soviets were thus given a respite, and a large number of troops were already gathering and heading to the front. It is said that in order to supplement the combat effectiveness of the battlefield, the Soviets even recruited female soldiers.

The United States has used this time to ramp up its own production, and at the same time, the third batch of domestic reservists has been called up and trained.

The Allied troops that were about to rush to the battlefield of the Soviet Union exceeded at least five million. And the number of troops that the Germans were able to call up was now at most two million.

They also had to take care of the resistance forces within Europe, but they also had to take care of production. Their allies can hardly afford to support them effectively.

It's all on their own. It would undoubtedly be a nightmare for Germany to confront three countries that are not inferior to itself in terms of resources, productivity and manpower.

Even if they lost the whole country, they would not be able to win the war. It's not that they're not strong enough, it's that their opponents are too strong......

"We have the end of the campaign against Rìben, if we still want to have a major naval battle. Then we need to face the German Navy,......" Tu Mengben said, and said with a wry smile: "What we sold to the Germans, I believe you also know." ”

"I don't want a heavy rocket-booster bomb to fall on the head of our aircraft carrier, and smash one that is enough for our aircraft carrier to be scrapped or even sunk."

For this. Su Zongzhen knew very well. He was present when negotiations were being held for the sale of heavy rocket-booster bombs.

This thing directly made the British Imperial Navy fleet, which was stronger than the German Navy at that time, hate the English Channel. You can imagine how powerful it is.

Maybe it's for the sake of self-protection. The Germans did not hand over the technology to Rì himself. And when they were willing to pay it, Rì himself couldn't get it.

"In contrast, the combined fleet of the Rìben Navy is our best training object. At the same time, it is also our last chance to practice large-scale naval battles! ”

Tu Mengben had a good reason to get rid of the nightmare in his heart with his own hands. Revenge for those military souls who fought in Dadonggou in the first year of the First Wu Dynasty, and shame for the Chinese Navy.

And most importantly, this will be a difficult opportunity to practice a large-scale naval battle.

"It's not like we're out of the cracks. Truly. The combined fleet of Rìben is much richer than ours in terms of numbers and combat experience. But our armament, especially fighters, bombers, radar and sonar. None of this is what the rì army has. ”

Tu Mengben said. Took a deep breath. "This is no longer the era of big guns and giant ships, and we need to fit into this era. The Navy needs to adapt to this era......"

"These fleets are the first batch of our practice objects." Tu Mengben said, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "We believe." I'm going to win! ”

A few hours later. Chen Shaokuan, commander of the Wehrmacht's Combined Fleet, who was sailing far away in the East China Sea, suddenly convened an emergency meeting. At the meeting, a document was circulated in the hands of several captains of the Combined Fleet of the Wehrmacht Navy.

Everyone rustled through the documents in their hands, and after reading them, they didn't say a word. Some were a little excited, while others were frowning. Some people lowered their heads in contemplation, and some people kept clenching their fists and looked very nervous.

"Everyone discussed it, and the commander-in-chief did not directly order us to attack. It's about making a deduction about whether we can fight this battle! ”

Everyone did not speak, everyone looked at the commander of the United Fleet, Chen Shaokuan. They were waiting for him to speak.

"What?! Usually, they are shouting one by one to beat the Rì Ben Navy to the bottom of the sea. I'm going to screw off Yamamoto's head and kick it as a ball. At this point, it's all out of flames?! ”

Chen Shaokuan snorted coldly. said: "Let's talk about it!" The commander-in-chief didn't force us, we can fight! If we can't fight, let's withdraw to Inchon for repairs after the landing battle! ”

Still no one spoke, and everyone had different expressions. But apparently no one wants to start.

"Since you don't want to say it, then I'll talk about it!" Vice Admiral Chen Ce, the current chief of staff of the Combined Fleet, glanced at these captains and said, "Commander, let me tell you?!" ”

"Chips, come on!" Chen Shaokuan nodded, Chen Ce was three years younger than Chen Shaokuan. As for the ability of this vice admiral, Chen Shaokuan knows very well.

He was also transferred to his side, and he also applied to Shen Honglie, commander of the National Defense Forces. The purpose is to train this brave general from Qiongdao and make him a wise general and a fierce general.

And the two have been partners as early as the Guofu period, when Chen Ce was still the deputy chief of the Admiralty.

"If you want me to say, it's not that you don't dare to fight. It's not very sure, isn't it?! Chen Ce looked at these captains and said, "I understand everyone's thoughts!" ”

"It's not easy for our navy to build it with one punch and one kick! Aircraft carriers, we never dreamed of before. Now there are three. Who doesn't cherish it?! In the past, we could only look at the ocean and sigh, but now we can lead the soldiers to gallop the sea! How much of a boost is this?! ”

"To be honest, the combined fleet is really not weak now. Eight aircraft carriers, more than fifty battleships, cruisers! There is even a super battleship called the "Yamato", which is known as the pride of Rìmoto! ”

"And what about us?! To say that the heart is not false, that is a lie. Many of you are talking about the commander-in-chief's order, which is difficult for some strongmen?! ”

There was no squeak from everyone, but the expressions on their faces said it all. Indeed, now that the Wehrmacht Navy Combined Fleet is to go toe-to-toe with Yamamoto Isoroku, they really have no certainty of their own.

Compared to the Wehrmacht Combined Fleet, the Rìben Navy is an old and powerful navy. People have been playing with aircraft carriers for a long time, and there are even classic battles such as the attack on Pearl Harbor.

And what about the Wehrmacht ?! Although he was caught off guard in the Philippines by relying on radar, he was finally surrounded by people. Even when the tactical advantage is superior, they do not dare to pursue.

Why?! It's because they know. His own strength is still not good. If you forcibly catch up, you may have to lose it. The aircraft carriers and a large number of battleships and cruisers are not vegetarians.

Even if the Combined Fleet now has three aircraft carriers in its hands, the number of battleships and cruisers has greatly increased. They were still not sure what they could deal with, Yamamoto Isoroku.

Several fights. These Wehrmacht admirals knew better than anyone else that Yamamoto Isoroku was powerful. At that time in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, if he had not made a quick decision, the national defense force would have relied on the air force to achieve greater results.

And in the Philippine war, Yamamoto Isoroku's caution also caused great trouble for the Wehrmacht. They were even almost discovered several times.

The fleet was also forced to keep a distance from the rì army and constantly change course to avoid being discovered by the rì army. In several encounters, Yamamoto Fifty-six showed the prudence and determination of a naval commander.

If it weren't for the fact that the Wehrmacht had more advanced instruments and equipment than the Wehrmacht, and at the same time had better luck. Perhaps the Wehrmacht Combined Fleet would have been sunk to the bottom of the sea by Yamamoto long ago.

Against such an opponent. How do you not make these admirals nervous?!

"Our navy has been built from scratch. From a couple of shallow water heavy gunboats to battleships and now aircraft carriers. Let's go all the way. It's really hard. Chen Ce looked at everyone and said, "But we must never forget our original intention, what is the original intention of the establishment of our navy?!" ”

"Defend the country and kill the enemy!!" There is no need for Chen Ce to say it. The captains' eyes were blood-red and they roared in a low voice about the promise they had made under the stone tablet in front of the Naval Academy when the United Fleet was founded.

Is the national shame unsettled? ! This inscription of Sa Zhenbing. Let every navy soldier get their blood boiling. They know what they're going to do, and they know what they're fighting for.

"I think everyone also knows that after the landing operation. I'm afraid there will be no chance for us to fight a decent naval battle, and the losses in this big war will be too great. And the nations need time to recuperate and adjust......"

"There is no doubt that this war will be followed by a period of peaceful recuperation." Chen Ce paused, looked at these captains sharply and said, "But, don't think that we can unload our armor and return to the field like this!" ”

"The loyal souls lying at the bottom of the sea in Dadonggou have not yet been laid to rest! Just a couple of landing battles. Only a few sneak attacks were successful. Are you satisfied?! ”

"There is not a single military prestige of the navy of a great power that is not fought with blood and fire! Once Spain, England. And even now Germany and rìben, who of them has not experienced in naval warfare?! ”

"The coastline we're going to defend from now on isn't just ours. What we need to protect also includes the coastline of Southeast Asia and even this part of Rìben! ”

"If we don't show our strength in the war, how can we stop the enemies who are trying to invade our maritime borders after the war?!" Chen Ce looked at everyone and said, "After this war, it is impossible for a large-scale naval battle to occur again. ”

"And small areas of friction will continue to occur, in order to defend our maritime borders. As a Navy, we must demonstrate our deterrence. Chen Ce paused when he said this. He looked at the crowd and said word by word: "The best deterrent is to win the battle!" ”

"It's not piecemeal, it's not a small-scale naval battle. Rather, it is a thorough, frontal, and tough way to send our enemies to the bottom of the sea! Chen Ce took a deep breath: "This is the best deterrent!" ”

The captains' breathing began to heavily, and they somewhat understood why the commander-in-chief had given such orders. Indeed, once the Battle of Rìben is over, there will not be many opportunities for the Wehrmacht Navy to have such a large combat opportunity again.

If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to thoroughly establish the prestige of the Wehrmacht Navy. Those European and American countries that are unwilling to give up their interests in Southeast Asia may not necessarily make small moves in these regions.

The greatest deterrent is to tell them that I can cut off your outstretched hand! A weapon that can cut off a hand is more effective than any word of intimidation. Especially since they used to chop.

"I'm sure that anyone who wants to challenge our Army after this war, they need to think twice. Our army has demonstrated its formidable combat capability not only at home, but also in Southeast Asia and Guam! This is a deterrent that belongs to the Army. ”

"I believe that after this war, if someone wants to challenge our air force, they will also think twice. Our Air Force has already shown its toughness in various battles! Anyone who wants to take on a challenge must first consider their own losses......"

"Now, it's time for our Navy to show its deterrent." Chen Ce looked at these captains and said, "This battle can be lost!" But you have to fight hard enough! Smash the front teeth of the rì himself and break their doglegs! ”

"When we lose, the Navy's academy can continue to deliver talents. Our shipyards already have experience in building aircraft carriers, cruisers and battleships, and we can get new warships from afar......"

"But there is one thing that only we can give to the Navy, and that is the determination to fight to the death! Kill him, even if he is damaged, he will break his bones! We want to inject this breath into the soul of the Navy! This is the most important part of a navy! ”

With all that said, what else do these captains have to say?!

"Call back the Commander-in-Chief, please! The combined fleet of our defense forces and navy will surely annihilate the enemy at sea! But seeing these captains slowly stand up, they shouted in unison: "Wehrmacht! Kill!! (To be continued......)
