Chapter 2688 The suspension of the ocean breaking battle

With the battle of the Yamamo battleship sinking, the Japanese Navy's breaking force composed of regular large surface warships completely disappeared from the vast Eastern Pacific Ocean. A total of two old battleships and two armored cruisers lost half of the loss, and the other half escaped in shame. The Japanese camouflage attack ship wandering in this sea area was not easy. Without the suppression and deterrence of large main battleships, fleets with destroyers or armed merchant ships escorted were not afraid of the Japanese camouflage attack ships. Although the latter has better endurance, it naturally does not put any pressure on the US maritime transportation system when it is unable to start.

As for submarines? Faced with an escort system composed of hundreds of various destroyers in the Eastern Pacific, the Japanese always felt that they could not speak. To be honest, from the perspective of their investment in the escort system, the Americans were much better than the British during the war! The number of destroyers and large seaplanes they invested was simply astronomical to the British!

&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Even the officers and soldiers of the German submarine force who have been through the battlefield believe that the Americans' anti-submarine escort ability is definitely the best in the world. Perhaps, in actual combat, the Americans' quality is worse than that of the British Royal Navy, but this does not prevent them from using much larger numbers of destroyers to make up for this lack! Since even the German submarine force is difficult to gain any advantage, let alone the Japanese submarine force!

Therefore, after the Americans took decisive measures, the Japanese attack fleet that had been rampant at sea for more than two months finally stopped, and the entire battle lasted only about 20 days! It has to be said that this anti-breach war was a major battle victory of the US Navy. The Americans changed the view of the great powers on the United States with their efficient naval organization and strong strength!

Even Marshal Schell pointed out in a German high-level meeting that the US Navy has already had the material foundation and organizational structure to become the most top force. With enough software and a large amount of professional knowledge, they lack only experience and the best senior commander. This evaluation is not low. Basically, it is believed that the current US Navy and the German Navy at its peak are in the same level.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Of course, this behavior also led to some adverse consequences, the most serious of which made the British, who were already very sensitive, nervous! As the main dominant of Britain in the Far East, the blockade of the eastern coast of Australia almost touched the bottom line of the British! Although it is impossible for Britain to declare war on the United States now, there is no doubt that after this incident, the British government also believed that during the Pacific War, Britain and the United States had no room for revolt. The British were even worried that if the Americans fought easily, would Australia be removed in the late or after the end of the Pacific War!

"I think that under the current circumstances, when the Americans have ignored the dignity and interests of the British Empire and have taken adverse measures against Australia, there is nothing to say between us and the Americans. Only a fierce counterattack can make the Americans restrain themselves a little. To a certain extent, our cooperation with the Japanese is no longer for the security of the sub-Grand of South Asia, but also for the interests of the empire in the Pacific. We have lost Africa and can no longer lose Oceania." The British minister wrote in his letter to the British King, and then the British increased their aid to Japan. Not only weapons, equipment and technology, but also personnel! And all this is to give the US Navy a profound lesson!&1t;i>&1t;/i>

When this battle ended, when naval experts from all over the world were considering whether the Americans would continue this active defense situation, the US Navy began to withdraw some of its military forces from the ocean, and even the blockade of Australia came to an end. Some politicians think this is a signal of easing from the United States to the United States? But only the most core personnel of the US government and the military know that the American power contracted to produce a more powerful blow!

The Americans are very good at summarizing, and even after winning, they will still summarize. In Sims' telegram to Roosevelt, Sims mentioned that although the Japanese army's long-distance battle did not cause much damage, it delayed for at least three months. In this month, the United States' maritime transportation and front-line supply were affected to a certain extent, which led to the fact that New Ireland has not been defeated so far! This island is too big, and the 6th Japanese Navy is also

Treat this place as a breakwater and provide reinforcements at any cost. A large number of U.S. Navy forces are involved in the Pacific, so they cannot cut off the Japanese maritime traffic line. Sims is worried that if time is allowed to delay like this, once the main fleets of both sides recover, the situation of both sides will return to the situation where they confront each other on New Ireland half a year ago, and this result is unacceptable to the Americans!&1t;i>&1t;/i>

So, at the end of the report, Sims put forward a very radical view, that is, before the main fleet of the Japanese Navy still did not complete the final preparations, the US Navy should take the initiative to attack, sweep the entire Bismarck Islands, and even go east to enter the Fudi of the former Dutch East India! Completely break the military deployment of the entire Japanese frontline! As long as the support system is lost, Japan on the front line of the New Ireland Island will naturally lose its slums and collapse!

That's right, you read it right. It's been more than three months since the Battle of New Ireland, and the Japanese Navy's main fleet has not been repaired! Although in the Battle of New Ireland, the Japanese Navy's fearless-level main ship lost one, in this battle, the Suxiong fleet had exhausted all its ammunition, and the German Navy's artillery level was indeed not said. Therefore, almost every Japanese main ship was covered with scars, which belonged to the kind that could not kill you, but also had to let you lie in the hospital for quite some time! And then, although the Japanese killed the New York in the battle with the US Navy, there was no doubt that they had paid a certain price. So, at least when Sims issued this telegram, the Japanese Navy's main fleet was still lying in the port!

And there is no doubt that any plan to reduce the war cycle is popular within the U.S. government, and after Roosevelt agreed, Sims began planning the first large-scale offensive operation led by the U.S. Navy!
