Bright Sword Military System

In fact, the point is not that Yoshijiro Umezu's plan moved Tokyo.

Even if Tokyo was moved and Tokyo gave the order, Deputy Takeshi Toyoda could still find various excuses to shirk.

After all, there is a saying that "military orders abroad will not be accepted", and Tokyo is also worried that the remote command will not understand the actual situation and damage the overall situation of the combined fleet.

But Umezu Yoshijiro's battle plan also moved Deputy Takeshi Toyoda.

According to common sense, Deputy Takeshi Toyota would never consider the battle plan of Yoshijiro Umezu, an army bastard, but Deputy Takeshi Toyota knew in his heart that they would not be able to win the war against the Eagle Sauce Fleet in the Philippines.

(Note: The Devils Navy and Army often refer to each other as "assholes")

The reason is very simple. With the current strength of the United Fleet, if the Eagle Sauce Fleet in front of us can be wiped out, it can be said that the ancestral grave is smoking.

But Eagle Sauce will have a second, third or even more such fleets, and they will rush towards the Imperial Fleet wave after wave like the waves of the sea.

And the Imperial Fleet will only fight less and less, and the aircraft carrier can't even make up the carrier-based aircraft, so how can it fight the Eagle Sauce Fleet?

Therefore, hoping to win Yingjiang or force Yingjiang to the negotiating table is just a self-deceiving idea... To force the opponent to the negotiating table, it must be when the opponent knows that he cannot defeat the opponent or the war is at a stalemate. In the case of victory, it is only a matter of time if Ying-chan has an obvious advantage and wins. At this time, it is obviously unrealistic to hope that Ying-chan will take the initiative to negotiate. This is only the people in Tokyo who don't have to sweat on the battlefield.

Although Toyoda's deputy Wu didn't have much military exploits or command ability, he still had this self-knowledge.

Therefore, he seriously thought about Umezu Yoshijiro's battle plan, thinking that this might be the retreat of the combined fleet.

"Do you know why we chose to fight Eagle Sauce in the Philippines?" Deputy Takeshi Toyoda asked the chief of staff.

"Yes!" Kusanagi Ryunosuke responded: "Because most of the empire's fuel comes from South Asia, if Hawk-chan controls the Philippines, the combined fleet will be in a dilemma!"

Deputy Takeshi Toyoda nodded.

The so-called "dilemma" is not as simple as it sounds.

If Eagle Sauce controls the Philippines, it will cut off the connection between the empire's main island and South Asia, and the fuel in South Asia will not be able to pass.

At this time, the Imperial United Fleet has only two choices: either stay in the waters of the island or stay in the waters of South Asia.

If you stay on the island, the fuel cannot be transported, and the warships that need a lot of fuel will have to lie down one by one, and they will not even be able to drive, let alone fight.

If you stay in South Asia, you will have fuel, but what if the eagle sauce attacks the island?

Therefore, it was a last resort for the Imperial United Fleet to fight Eagle Sauce in the Philippines, and this was their must-defend.

Deputy Takeshi Toyoda gave a "hmm", then handed the battle plan in his hand to Ryunosuke Kusakaka, and asked, "Look, is this plan feasible?"

Kusanagi Ryunosuke looked at it for a while, and then replied: "Your Excellency, if the land transportation line can be opened up, I think it is feasible. Because the army train transported a large amount of materials from 'Manchukuo' to the southern front for combat, many They always return empty, so there is no problem with capacity. On the other hand..."

Then Kuo Deer Ryunosuke pointed to the location of Dalian and said: "If we control Dalian, there is a port and a shipyard there, and more importantly, it is close to the island. We can use anti-ship missiles to defend this area like the Eighth Route Army." port!"

Deputy Takeshi Toyoda nodded slightly after listening to Kusakaka Ryunosuke's analysis, but then he frowned again: "Do you really think that those guys in the Army can repel the Eighth Route Army? If not, what if we attack Dalian? It might just be a waste of effort in the end!"

After all, the United Fleet can only fight on the coast, and the final occupation and control still requires the army. Even if the United Fleet has its own infantry... Devils call it the Marine Corps or the Joint Special Marine Corps, but the Marine Corps has few troops and insufficient equipment. It is used for landing, and it is definitely not as good as the army in large-scale operations on land.

Deputy Takeshi Toyoda is worried that even if part of the United Fleet's power is allocated to "Manchuria", those unsatisfied bastards in the army will still be unable to take the initiative, and the United Fleet will lose everything by then.

After a while, Cao Deer Ryunosuke Shen Ling replied: "Your Excellency, the army does not require many warships, and two of them are aircraft carriers that our army cannot use. And..."

"And what?" Deputy Takeshi Toyoda frowned.

What Kusanagi Ryunosuke said didn't focus on the main point. Even if the two aircraft carriers are not needed, can't the carrier-based fighters on the carrier be changed to suicide fighters?Isn't the pilot above still usable?In addition, don't aircraft carriers, warships, and aircraft all consume fuel?

At this time, Deputy Takeshi Toyoda would even take fuel consumption into consideration and was unwilling to coordinate the reasonable use of the aircraft carrier with the army. From this, it can be seen that he did not regard the army as "his own" at all.

The reason why he would consider coordinating with the army at this time is also because it may solve the fuel problem of the combined fleet.

Ryunosuke Kusakaka replied: "Your Excellency, the point is that we have jamming equipment that can interfere with the missiles of the Eighth Route Army. In this case, the missile defense of the Eighth Route Army in Dalian is useless, and the missiles on their warships are completely useless. But our missiles can hit their warships!"

Then Ryunosuke Kusakaka added: "In addition, the carrier-based aircraft of the Eighth Route Army aircraft carrier is a 'Wildcat' fighter, and it also uses air-to-air missiles. If the air-to-air missiles are also interfered and cannot be used..."

This information was known from when Gu Hefeng was intercepted by the Eighth Route Army. At that time, two "Zero Fighters" of the devils survived and fled back. Therefore, the United Fleet knew the configuration of the Eighth Route Army's aircraft carrier. They even knew that the Eighth Route Army's aircraft carrier was almost the same as "Shinano" is exactly the same.

"This is an opportunity for us, Your Excellency General!" Ryunosuke Kusanagi said, "We can easily defeat the Eighth Route Army fleet and occupy Dalian, and the army can thus gain control of the air and break through the Eighth Route Army's defense line with the cooperation of our army. If the army cannot defeat the Eighth Route Army, they should commit seppuku!"

Deputy Wu Toyoda thought about it and felt that the chief of staff was right. If it could interfere with the missiles, the Eighth Route Army would have almost no equipment more advanced than that of the Empire.

Moreover, the "Wildcat" fighter is still the defeat of the "Zero War", so is it easy to defeat the Eighth Route Army?

Even if the Army was unable to regain control, the victory in this battle would boost the morale of the Combined Fleet.

So Deputy Takeshi Toyoda no longer hesitated, and nodded in agreement with the battle plan.
