Sato heard Nanyun Zhongyi's question and turned his head, his face filled with frustration and unwillingness, because he wanted to avenge his subordinates, but he almost took his own life. War is no longer what he knows, because at that time, when he was sitting in the cockpit of a Zero fighter, he could feel that confidence. Now, every time he thinks about the pictures of being chased by the US Air Force in circles, he feels his wounds are faintly painful-whether it is a wound in his heart or a wound on his arm.

The Zero fighter is no longer the invincible existence of the past. Now most American pilots know that some three-dimensional maneuvers are used to get rid of the entanglement of the Zero fighter. No matter how brave he is, he ca n’t change the disadvantage of the fighter itself, so in the sky. He felt that he was dancing with shackles.

Thinking of this, he slowly opened his mouth and said to Nan Yunzhong in a hoarse tone: "Lord General, our fighter performance has been thoroughly understood by the Americans. Their maneuver avoidance is desperate. I do n’t think these recruits are used. Things that the veterans who can die can't do. "

At this time, he was not afraid of anything like a boss. People who had experienced a life-and-death test tended to see things very simply. In their eyes, there were only two options, survival or death. Nan Yunzhong sighed. He also knew that these valuable new pilots would not have much effect, but there was really no decent force in his hands.

"If we can attract the U.S. Navy within the combat radius of the roadbed aviation, is it possible to reverse the situation?" Nan Yunzhong whispered quietly, but he knew better than anyone, in fact, this is only to comfort the frontline soldiers. There is a ridiculous way to hypnotize themselves.

Like the United States, the Great Japanese Empire has no independent air force. They have only the army and navy in their establishment. The two forces that dislike each other have their own aviation units. In terms of training intensity and consistent word-of-mouth, the overall strength of the Japanese naval aviation is stronger than that of the army aviation. This also reveals a terrible message from another aspect: that is what the Japanese naval aviation can't do. The Americans and the Army Air Forces are equally unsure.

Moreover, the Japanese Army Air Force and Navy Air Force can basically be regarded as the aviation forces of the two countries, and their production systems and personnel training systems are completely different. As far as aircraft are concerned, their respective models are different, parts are different, factories are different, and even R & D is also separate. In terms of pilot quality, naval aviation was better than army aviation a few months ago, but now, it can really be said to be half a catty. But because the aviation pilots only use terrain to navigate, they often get lost, and the navy will look at the sextant to determine the direction. Therefore, only the God can know how effective the Army Air Forces are in carrying out maritime missions.

The current situation is that the Japanese naval aviation pilots lost more quickly. During this period of combat, they were forced to request that the Japanese Army aviation units that were not involved in maritime operations were also transferred to the sea islands to participate in the battle, but these army aviation pilots could basically only fight islands. For defensive warfare and bombardment of ground targets, because there is no reference object on the sea, they cannot carry out support operations at too long distances, and their training does not involve the bombing of moving targets, so the attack effect on moving targets at sea is also very limited.

A team that is so cohesive can only be regarded as better than nothing. It is a bit difficult for a strong man to expect what miracles it creates. Nan Yun Zhongyi and Yamamoto 56 held several combat meetings, all because there was nothing too good to do. What is even more disturbing to them is that the US Navy has not responded slowly, and it seems that the Americans are waiting for their powerful industrial production system to fully recover.

Fighting like this, the Americans were very clever and hit the Japanese Navy ’s weaknesses. The Japanese Navy ’s mood is very contradictory. They both hope that the Americans will fight back later so that they can train more pilots, and hope that the Americans will start early. So as not to let the United States produce more weapons and equipment.

However, the Americans played steadily. Nimitz apparently grabbed the most feared point in Japan. Instead of rushing to the Japanese navy to seek a decisive battle, he narrowed down in the waters of Hawaii and waited for his new fleet to join the battle sequence. By then the United States will have more than 7 aircraft carriers, and the Japanese will lose the absolute advantage of the aircraft carrier fleet. At this time, the Americans will fully counterattack in the Pacific Ocean, and the Japanese can only struggle to cope.

Unlike the difficulty of replenishing Japanese naval pilots after the loss, the lost pilots of the US Navy will soon be able to replenish. The huge industrial system allows the United States to reserve a large number of pilots in civilian reserves. These people can quickly transform into basic fighter forces during wartime. And the survival rate of American pilots is much higher than that of Japanese counterparts.

"Is there no way to change a fighter plane?" Sato suddenly asked Nan Yunzhong who had gone out a few steps away: "My excellency, our fighter performance has been thoroughly understood by Americans. The excellent pilots ca n’t stand such rapid consumption! Ca n’t our technical department come up with a new fighter? ”

"Really ... can't get it out!" Jiro Horitsu, an aircraft designer far away in Japan, lamented to the subordinates who asked the same question: "Under normal circumstances, we should improve the zero fighter and change the flight performance of the aircraft. , You can cope with the current situation. However, there is really no room for improvement in the design of the zero fighter. If we forcibly change it, it will be the same as redesigning a fighter. "

"Then we will redesign a fighter plane!" An assistant said with a fist clenched. But he regretted saying this. After all, as a technician who was involved in aircraft design, he knew how difficult it was to redesign an aircraft.

Moreover, Hiroshi Jiro and others did not try this aspect. In fact, a newer fighter has made a wooden model and is experimenting with its resistance in the air. This fighter uses the same type as the zero fighter. The shape is just bigger and faster. This fighter uses a newer engine and can reach a staggering 600 kilometers per hour, or even exceed this speed, flying to the terrible limit of 650 kilometers.

However, it is desperate that the new engine is still in the laboratory, and the failure is difficult to control to a low level. Even if it is barely equipped, whether it can achieve the desired effect is still unknown. The service time of this fighter is set at June 1939, which means that it will take up to 5 months to serve at the fastest. During this time, Japan can only rely on zero leaked by Akado. Fighter, and the increasingly powerful US Air Force fight.

"We don't have time." Nan Yunzhong looked back, looking at the desperate Sato, and said with some dismay: "When we have a new fighter, the Americans will have more than ten aircraft carriers. What do we use to guard the territory of His Majesty the Emperor? So, Sato Jun, put away any luck, we can only fight, for the future of the Great Japanese Empire, fight to the last moment! "

Not far away, at the airport of the Army Aviation, two Army fighters were slowly taking off. They were ordered to take off and patrol the nearby waters. Yamamoto 56 was standing beside the airport at this moment. He looked at the two paintings. The plane with the red sun flew slowly into the sky, with an unspeakable taste in my heart.

On the deck of the aircraft carrier, he sent away those familiar pilots so many times, but again and again, these pilots never flew back. They died in a foreign country, and even his own body was not left to his family. As the supreme commander of these people, Yamamoto felt that he actually caused these pilots to die, so he recently became silent and unhappy.

As a general of the Japanese navy, Yamamoto fifty-six, like many famous Japanese navy generals, followed the principles of command handed down from the British Empire. From the bottom of his heart, the Japanese Navy is learning the strongest maritime power, the British Empire, so Yamamoto and almost all Japanese commanders pay attention to the Nelson fighting spirit of seeing the enemy must fight. But such a bullish idea can only be felt when the British Empire, which has dominated the ocean for 100 years, speaks out, because at least before 1937, the British Empire still had money and people. The Japanese navy, who pursued the idea, played this suit against the US navy to kill himself. Japan's productivity was not as good as that of the US. This disadvantage is more obvious when it is placed in the navy's advanced arms. But naval aviation has always been a must-see battle, and there is no time to accumulate their valuable pilots.

I really ca n’t blame the Japanese navy ’s commanders for idiot pig heads, because they rely on learning the British navy, they won the Qing Dynasty ’s Beiyang navy, and they won the Russian Far East Fleet. It's so easy to use. In the minds of ordinary people, the idea must be that the soldiers are not brave enough and unnecessary, not that there is something wrong with the basic tactics at the bottom of the press box.

However, Yamamoto is not a general player. He has realized that the navy's tactics of hard consumption are definitely a problem. He now wants to change this tactic and use the islands of Southeast Asia to fight a sea battle with the Americans. Lose US maritime power.

The problem now is that Ren Shanben has all sorts of tricks, and Nimitz of the United States simply does not play. Yamamoto's big pit for Nimitz in Southeast Asia is useless if the US Navy's prey is not fooled. So at least for now, the Japanese Navy is in tragedy.
