The curtain came down on the short naval battle, which was another incomparably heavy blow to the Japanese Navy.

After this battle, it also means that the Japanese Navy has lost its so-called real combat effectiveness.

Five battleships had already been damaged, six aircraft carriers were sunk in the Battle of Midway, plus three more were sunk in this battle, and one aircraft carrier that had been sunk as a decoy on Guadalcanal.

From the outbreak of the war to the present, the Japanese Navy has lost fifteen capital ships, which is enough to kill the Japanese Navy.

From World War I to World War II, Japan built only eight battleships in service, and the Yamato and Musashi are still in dock.

Of these eight battleships, five have already been sunk in naval battles, and with the addition of the Nagato, which was previously sunk by submarines, there are six combat losses.

These six battleships are the most powerful of the Japanese battleships in service, including four battleships of the Kongo-class and two of the Nagato-class.

At present, among the remaining battleships in Japan, there are only two Ise-class battleships that are scheduled to return to the domestic Wusong Military Port for overhaul.

There are also the two Fuso-class battleships of the first dreadnought-class battleship built by the Japanese Navy, both of which maintain sea supremacy in Southeast Asia.

In terms of aircraft carriers, the Japanese Navy has already buried all the main heavy aircraft carriers, and the loss of 10 aircraft carriers is an irreparable fatal wound to the Japanese industry.

At present, there are only a few small aircraft carriers left in the Japanese Navy, which are either converted from seaplane carriers or converted from cruise ships, and they do not have the combat capability to fight for sea and air supremacy.

After this battle, it can almost be said that the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy existed in name only.

Less than half a year has passed since the start of the war, and the Japanese Navy is finished.

When the sad news reached Rabaul, Imamura struggled to maintain his elegance and sat down in his office chair.

"It's hard to believe that the outcome of such a war, the Pacific theater, the outcome is difficult to change."

"I hope that those guys in the military department who still have confidence can sober up, and in the face of an opponent like the Red Alert Empire, the empire is in danger."

"Without the restraint of the Navy, Rabaul is in danger, the entire Bismarck Archipelago is about to be lost, the enemy does not need to attack, only needs to besiege the islands, our army will die without a fight, and the next war will break out in Southeast Asia."

"This is not so much a three-dimensional war of land, sea and air, but rather a war of transportation, a war of supplies, and the key to all victory or defeat is in transportation capacity, which the empire has completely failed."

"With the loss of these islands in the South Pacific, the Red Alert Empire's forces will immediately be aimed at Dutch East British India and the Philippines, hoping that the Empire will react as soon as possible."

"The war will go on in a very fast way, and if the empire is not ready to lose its interests in the Pacific, the empire will face more options for defeat."

"And this war has also fully exposed one point, that is, our army's radio communications have long been monitored and learned by the enemy, and all actions are not secret in front of the enemy."

"I hope that these telegrams can be sent out smoothly, and I hope that the empire can wake up as soon as possible......"

Imamura Jun picked up the pen and wrote a lot in the telegraph, but before he could stop writing, a voice appeared next to Imamura's ear: "Are you writing your last words?" ”

Imamura's heart jumped, he raised his head, and at a glance he saw a person standing in front of him, a very strange person.

Holding his glasses, Imamura Jun did not show any fear or panic on his face, but asked curiously, "Who are you?" ”

"I forgot to introduce myself, I'm from what you call the Red Alert Empire, and strictly speaking, I should be the supreme leader of the Red Alert Empire." Fan Yize introduced himself very simply.

"Fan Yize, I have heard your name in the German Chancellery, and in the mouth of the German one, you are a very remarkable person." Imamura suppressed all the emotions in his heart and looked at the strange man in front of him, surprisingly young.

"It's not easy to hear such praise from the mouth of the enemy." Fan Yize said lightly, and picked up the telegram from in front of Imamura Jun, and said, "He is also a person with a lot of vision." ”

"I am deeply honored by your approval, although I don't know why you are standing in front of me, but no matter what, you can't go." Imamura took a deep breath and shouted loudly outside the door, "Someone." ”

However, the guards outside the governor's palace seemed to have all become deaf, and even when Imamura shouted, the door of the office never responded.

Fan Yize was very calm, and said to Imamura: "Do you know that I have been here for a few days, do you know? ”

The guards didn't react, and Imamura Jun was also dead, how could the person in front of him who dared to stand in front of him come to find death.

"I want to hear about it." Imamura Jun was also very calm, as if he had let go of everything for a while, and said.

"I've been in Rabaul for more than ten days, and these ten days are enough time for one of my troops to quietly arrive here, and the camp in Rabaul will soon become a thing of the past." Fan Yize said very simply.

"As a dying request, can I know why the war has developed into such a situation?" Imamura didn't doubt it, but asked as if he was ready to take justice.

"I can satisfy you, this war has been aimed at destroying the Japanese Navy as soon as possible from the very beginning, do you know how many fleets and how many forces my Navy has in the Pacific?"

Such a question is not for Imamura Jun to answer at all, Fan Yize immediately continued: "I have assembled more than one million main forces of the army in the Pacific Ocean, and the navy has dispatched three fleets, twenty-one aircraft carriers with a displacement of more than 60,000 tons, and a total number of surface warships of more than 800. ”

"As you said, why bother, it's not more convenient to run it directly." Although Imamura Jun was shocked by the terrifying power in Fan Yize's mouth, he didn't believe it in his heart, but he didn't refute it, but asked.

"The reason is very simple, I don't like to hide and seek, and you will soon know that there is no need to continue hiding now." The corners of Fan Yize's mouth curled and said.

"I don't need to know." As soon as Imamura's voice fell, he quickly pulled out his pistol and aimed the muzzle at Fan Yize's head: "As long as I kill you, everything will be over." ”

"Really?" Facing the muzzle of the gun, Fan Yize smiled weirdly.
