PS: Celebrating the completion of five thousand votes, thousands of words are summed up in one sentence - fate

The one side declared war this time was the Japanese and the puppet Manchukuo jointly issued a telegram, and the Sino-German alliance was forced to fight. However, Hansjiang still adopted the attitude of declaring foreign war without fighting - the two countries' territory was far away and there was no possibility of attacking each other.

Other countries have acted like a sitting position of watching the tiger's head, shouting "to be peaceful" and reselling strategic materials such as steel, oil, and rubber. Among them, Britain, the United States and Russia have more secret support for the Japanese devils, and are even prepared to stand up and pull the enemy out when the war is over, that is, whoever is weak will help them avoid dominance in Asia.

These three countries have similar ideas to the Japanese. They do not want to see a unified Asian power rising in the East. If the government of Nanjing and Chiang Kai-shek unified the country, the spokespersons they supported and the vested interests they had already received would be damaged. At this time, Asia was finally regarded as a fertile colony by the European and American powers.

Although the Japanese thought they had defeated a partial division in the Far East, and abolished some unequal treaties and placed themselves as members of the great powers. Major European and American countries were not particularly interested in the Japanese, because there were two points in the Japanese that did not meet the standards of the great powers. The first was resources. A great power was supported by the resources of countless colonies. Although the Japanese had also swallowed up several colonies in Asia over the years, it was far from enough.

The second is industrial manufacturing capacity. The industrial manufacturing capacity accumulated by the Japanese for many years can only barely reach the industrial level of European middle-aged countries before World War I. In the eyes of a few big countries, this level is as weak as a child who has just learned to walk. In the eyes of real powers, this strength is an existence that can be killed at any time, so I don’t mind letting it go and biting people in normal times.

When Gui Yongqing, deputy commander-in-chief of the Navy, led the fleet to sea with the 19th cruising speed of the Zhongshan-class battleship, and the maximum surface speed of the U-shaped submarine did not meet this standard. After learning that the war had officially started, Gui Yongqing sent a report to the submarine force, allowing part of the submarine force to defend Lianyungang and part of the submarine force to submarine northeast to wait for the Japanese ships to pass by and attack.

Although the submarines cannot catch up with the Central Navy fleet, there are differences among the Japanese. You should know that the maximum speed of a ship can be obtained by heating and pressurizing the steam turbine boiler in a short period of time. Generally, the maximum speed can only take a few hours or even shorter. The main battleship of the Japanese mixed fleet is a bit messy. The Emperor-class capture battleship can surpass the opponent's cruising speed, and smaller cruisers and aircraft carriers without rear-heavy armor are fine.

However, the cruise speed of the protective Emperor-class battleships and some old battleships, including the Muro and the King Kong ships, is not enough. Although the distance can be shortened by heating and pressurization, you can do this, and others can do it too. In other words, if you want to catch up with the other side, these ships with lower speed will be abandoned.

In the view of the steady faction led by Iroji Yamamoto, the aircraft carrier's reconnaissance aircraft should use the aircraft carrier to grab the opponent's tail, and then the fast ships would go around from the side and set up a net to form an encirclement, forcing them to fight to the decisive battle and then relying on firepower and tonnage to wipe out the Central Navy.

In the view of the radical Jiro Saito, this idea is of course a bastard logic that misses the opportunity to fight. As long as you take four capture battleships, aircraft carriers that can keep up with you, and light cruisers, you can completely restrain the enemy's central naval ships and even hurt the opponent's main battleship, thereby reducing the speed of the opponent to form a siege.

A fleet's newly appointed commander-in-chief of the fleet's chief of staff, two of them had supporters and no results, so they had to fight the lawsuit to the base camp.

At this point, Izuru Yamamoto knew that he would win. Izuru Yamamoto was still influential in the navy at the base camp, especially the editorial "The captain of the warship sailing, and the emperor is the sun god" a few days ago, which was copied and recited by students and teachers from various naval colleges and universities.

Sure enough, after a while, a telegram came from the base camp, asking the commander of the fleet, Jiro Saito, to obey Yamamoto Iroku's combat plan, and led four capture battleships, four aircraft carriers, and some cruisers to go around from the side front wing to drive the enemy fleet into the encirclement and then attack them.

Saito Jiro who received the telegram said angrily: "A group of traitors, they are missing the opportunity to fight. If they had known this, they would not have brought these turtles to come, and they would have caused trouble."

The order of scolding must be implemented when it is time to curse. Saito Jiro ordered ships that could keep up with the capture battleship to orbit from the side.

Gui Yongqing, the Japanese Navy, also got news from the aircraft carrier reconnaissance aircraft, but the most important task now is not to defeat the Japanese unit but to join the commander-in-chief Chen Shaokuan's troops. Besides, there are four main battleships half of the Japanese unit, and they are not allowed to eat them for a while. If they are ate their teeth and are made into dumplings by the Japanese, they will have to go to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

Saito Jiro waited for the boiler to cool down and began to pressurize the boiler. After going back and forth for several hours, he finally walked around the side of the Central Navy Fleet. Saito Jiro immediately ordered the navy's classic combat formation, a long snake formation, and prepared to use artillery to force the opponent into the encirclement.

Gui Yongqing's current situation is that there are enemy ships blocking the way in front and pursuers behind. He is determined to run away without a surround, and it will not take long to hit the mainland and get stranded.

So Gui Yongqing used his last move, picked up the radio communicator and shouted: "Commander Chen, for the sake of the party and the country, and for the sake of the party and the country, he pulled his brothers, and for the sake of the party and the country, he pulled his brothers."

Of course, Chen Shaokuan was not rushing to help Li Tianxia thousands of miles away. Chen Shaokuan shouted on the radio: "Commander Gui, please stick to the last ten minutes, please stick to the last ten minutes."

Helpless Gui Yongqing did not dare to look back - he was getting farther and farther away from the reinforcements and ordered the fleet to set up a long snake formation to prepare to catch fire with the enemy ships.

The remaining carrier-based aircraft on both sides also flew into the air. Because they were training that day, the Central Navy aircraft carrier did not carry real bombs (training with real bombs is very dangerous, and they must be thrown into the sea before returning to the air and landing). The training bombs were solid bombs and would not explode. Therefore, more than 100 P26 fighters were launched, using only the airborne 7.92mm machine guns on it for interception. Therefore, the ones in the air were all single-wing aircraft.

The Japanese were prepared and naturally brought all of them. More than 200 attack aircraft, interceptors, dive bombers, torpedoes, and reconnaissance aircraft, but one thing is all domestic biplane. Although these aircraft are the most advanced in the Japanese team, they are far behind one generation compared to the higher speed and more flexible aluminum alloy monoplane.
