It is now January 5, 1941, and there is less than a month left before the planned mobile troops of the Japanese Joint Fleet will be gathered at the Segashima Island Danguan Bay in northern Japan.

Hessman's eldest son Rudolph arrived in Japan a week ago with 79 other German naval carrier-based aircraft pilots. However, Hessman and others were not immediately sent to their aircraft carrier by the Japanese. Instead, they were arranged to visit Japan's scenic spots for three days, and then sent them to the dormitory of the Etashima Naval School and settled down.

Then the instructors from the Naval School explained to them the various rules and regulations of the Japanese Joint Fleet, special flag language, and taught them to identify the appearance of Japanese and American ships, etc. On the morning of January 5, Japanese Joint Fleet Aviation Staff Shi Min suddenly visited and found Little Hessman who was teaching in a classroom in the Etashima Naval School.

Genta came for the pre-war special training of the Japanese aircraft carrier-based aircraft force. He found the little Hessman who had a relationship with him in Germany and asked the following question: "Mr. Hessman, you are an ace pilot with 26 shots down. You must have a good understanding of the tactics and characteristics of British and American aircraft, right?"

"Of course," said Little Hessman with a smile, "I have shot 26 enemy planes, 18 of which are fighters, and I have been shot three times by them."

Minami Genda nodded and asked again: "Are you all the achievements you have obtained with a Zero plane?"

"It's the Folk Zero," "It's not exactly the same as your Zero, it has a self-sealed fuel tank, a stronger body, and a stronger horsepower in the engine. The latest improvement also has a first-stage two-supercharger and an m5o system. This system increases the power of the engine in a short time by injecting 1:1 mixed water-methanol."

Hessman's uncle is Anthony Folk, the owner of Folk Aircraft Company. He learned from his uncle the difference between the Japanese Zero and Folk Zero.

"Although the Folk Zero is an aircraft that is better than the Japanese Zero," Little Hessman glanced at the expressionless Minami, and said with a smile. "But its performance at low and medium altitudes may not be as good as that of the Japanese Zero. This is because the improvements made by Folk Company increase the weight of the aircraft, thus offsetting the advantage of the motivation. In addition, the first-stage two-stage supercharger has no effect at low and medium altitudes. It only improves the high-altitude performance of the aircraft. The m5o system has no effect at low and medium altitudes, and these things will increase weight."

"What's the point of the improvements made by Folk?" Genda asked with a frown.

"Of course it makes sense," said Hessman Jr. "Fokker's improvements can improve the chances of survival of pilots after being shot, and improving the high-altitude performance of the aircraft can also give the Folkker Zero a little more chance of winning against fighters such as the Spitfire aircraft."

"Is it to seize high-altitude positions to prevent enemy planes from diving from a high position?" Genda Shi asked. He has been studying air combat on the European battlefield, so he knows some British methods of fighting the Folk Zero.

Little Hessman nodded and said, "When the Folk Zero appeared at the beginning, the British didn't know how to deal with it. At that time, they would fight with us in medium and low altitude, so it was easy to beat them down. However, later the British gradually discovered the two major shortcomings of Folk Zero's poor high-altitude performance and poor dive performance, so they adopted the method of high-altitude dive and one-hit strike. We adopted the tactic of using b-1o9 or f-19o and Folk Zero to match high-altitude.

However, the Folk Zero always has its own time. Because its range is very large, it can guard ju88 and s.m.79 for long-range attacks, while the range of b-1o9 and f-19o is not large. Therefore, in order to give Folk Zero a certain high-altitude performance, a supercharger and m5o system were installed. In order to improve the survival chances of pilots in air combat, some armor was added. Therefore, the Folk Zero became heavier and the corresponding low-altitude combat performance decreased, but it was still enough in the European battlefield."

Small upgrade space is the biggest disadvantage of the Zero. Because the aircraft is too small and takes the light and smart maneuver team route, it is difficult to improve. Although Folk's several modifications to the Folk Zero have improved the pilot's survival chance in combat and the aircraft's high-altitude performance, they sacrificed a lot of flexible maneuvers. The reason why Hessmann felt that the low-altitude performance was "enough" is because his practical experience is becoming more and more abundant, while his opponents are getting more and more frivolous.

However, in this time and space Japan, because there was no "China Incident" for pilots to practice, the elites of Japan's HNA did not have practical experience.

"Then Americans must know how to deal with Zero fighters, right?" Genda Shifred and expressed his concerns.

Little Hessman nodded and said, "They must know that they actually drove a plane specifically for the Folk Zero. It was called the Mustang Fighter (p51), which had excellent performance and was a very difficult opponent."

Because of the "Second Folk Disaster" in this time and space, the British were more active in seeking advanced fighter jets, which prompted the P51 to be put into service in advance. However, the current P51 does not have the "Melin" motivation to install the superior performance. Therefore, it is a medium and low-altitude aircraft. Although its fighting performance is not as good as the Folk Zero, its dive performance is much greater than the latter and it is very sturdy.

"This kind of aircraft is more flexible and difficult to catch. However, the British and American pilots who are flying this kind of aircraft do not fight with us. They still use the method of leaving with one blow. If they fail to hit, they will dive and escape. When you chase it, you will either roll or rush down. So you must seize the opportunity to fire and directly use a 2m cannon. It must be fast, accurate, and ruthless..."

He was very knowledgeable, but Minaki Genda frowned when he heard it. The Zero fighter proudly was medium and low-altitude combat. However, the British had been trained by the Germans for two years with the Folk Zero, and had already figured out some ways to deal with the Folk Zero. However, the Japanese naval aviation pilots did not know the characteristics of British and American aircraft, and they would probably suffer losses when they went on the battlefield.

"Captain Hessman," Genda Shizuki asked, "Can you fly an airplane to imitate the tactical movements of British and American aircraft?"

The first task that the original source, Tashi, arranged for these German aces, was to serve as a sparring trainers for elite Japanese pilots who had never been on the battlefield, so that they could master the methods of dealing with American fighters such as P51 and P4o in the shortest time.

Little Hessman smiled and said, "Of course, but it's not possible to use Zero. Its dive performance is not very good. Generally speaking, we use b-1o9 to imitate the 'Sprayer' aircraft for tactical training."

Nowadays, both the Air Force and HNA have a training brigade, and letting old pilots fly B-1o9 or D.52o to imitate "Spraying" aircraft for attacks is almost a compulsory course for the training brigade.

"No, it's not a zero-type." Genda Shi smiled, "We have a he-112, which we bought from Germany. We have been kept in the warehouse since we bought it, but it is well preserved, just like the new one... Can anyone of you fly?"

...

"No, no... The plan to attack Malaya, Singapore and the Philippines has long been submitted to His Majesty the Emperor, and we have promised His Majesty that he will occupy Southeast Asia within 10 days. How can we change the plan and transfer our troops to Hawaii?"

January 5th is also the day when the Japanese base camp liaison meeting discussed the battle in Hawaii. The one who objected was Chief of Staff, Sugiyama Moto. He put the easy-to-clean Southeast Asia territory, and the hard bones of going to Ken Hawaii seemed completely nonsense in his opinion.

Moreover, Oahu is a fortress island, so how can it be so easy to capture? Maybe tens of thousands of people will die like the Lushun Fortress. Of course, there is nothing to die. How could the Imperial Army be afraid of death? But after a few months of fighting, can the navy ensure continuous logistics?

Even if the Navy dares to make a promise, the 6th Army will definitely not believe it. This matter will definitely not work! Because the 6th Army will definitely be the 6th Army, and the 6th Army will not be the Shanghai Army.

Nagano Cunny and Oikawa Kojiro looked at each other, but the 6th Army disagreed, and the Navy even wanted to fight but no soldiers were available.

However, the Navy would not give up like this. It may be because of Hessman's initiative, or it may be because it had 80 more ace carrier-based aircraft pilots. Yamamoto Iroku was much more courageous, and at the Navy's own combat meeting, he proposed an alternative plan to capture Hawaii in two steps.

Of course, the fleet battles are a decisive battle. It doesn’t seem easy to fight Oahu, but a decisive battle with the US Navy near Hawaii is still feasible and this is also a prerequisite for occupying Hawaii.

So Yamamoto Iroku thought about creating the illusion that Japan would attack Hawaii, and attracted all the American fleet wandering outside (the reconnaissance shows that the American fleet is very dishonest and often goes out to waste fuel) to the vicinity of Hawaii and gather and annihilate it. If the purpose of annihilation can be achieved, it will not be too late to mobilize troops to attack Hawaii. This way in two steps is much more reliable than the desperate method proposed by Marshal Hessman.

Nagano Cultivation said: "Since the 6th Army does not agree with the attack on Hawaii, then the Navy has a feint attack case, and there is no need to use 5 divisions. It is enough to use a few thousand people to form a brigade first... Will your 6th Army sacrifice thousands of people for the great cause of the empire?"

Thousands of people? This is nothing, even if the Imperial Army dies, it can bear it.
