"Hayi!"

The Kuroshima Turtle paused and said with a serious expression, "Your Excellency General, I have to say that this is a major and difficult choice.

The reason why choice is difficult is because it is difficult to weigh the gains and losses. So the most important analysis of gains and losses is clear at present!”

Yamamoto Iroku was not displeased with this nonsense that was equivalent to saying nothing, but smiled and nodded, "Mystery, please continue."

"Hayi!"

The Black Island Turtle continued: "First of all, based on the US military's landing combat capabilities and the defense capabilities of the Imperial Army, I think the Midway Empire Guards have the ability to hold on for more than three days!

Therefore, if the Imperial United Navy set out from Hawaii now, it can arrive before the fall of Midway, which means we have the prerequisites to rescue Midway."

"The next thing I want to talk about is the importance of Midway, is it worthy of the Imperial Navy's full efforts to rescue it!

Inoue Jun said before, "Midway to Hawaii has 1,100 nautical miles, exceeding the combat radius of most military aircraft. Its area is too small and there is no good port to accommodate too many troops and large fleets. Even if the US military takes it, it will be difficult to use it as a springboard for attacking Hawaii."

This sentence is neither right nor right. Midway is the gateway and outpost of the Hawaiian Islands, and its strategic position is not to be questioned.

If the US military occupy it, it can push the forward fulcrum to the mainland and advance 2,800 nautical miles in one go!

With the strong supply and transportation capacity and construction capabilities of the US military, they are able to turn Midway into an indestructible fortress and build it into a springboard for attacking Hawaii."

“As far as I know, the United States’ long-range strategic bombers have a combat radius from Midway to the Hawaiian Islands, and if combined with their excellent night fighters, they are enough to pose a direct threat to motherport of Pearl Harbor.

In addition, the US military can use this as a basis to launch an attack on a series of surrounding islands, establish a warning network, and pose a serious threat to the Pacific supply line of the Imperial Japanese fleet."

"In other words, once Midway is lost, it will cause a series of serious military threats to the Imperial soldiers. If we can, we should not let it happen."

"Then let's talk about the issue of the joint fleet sending troops to reinforce immediately.

The so-called lions fight rabbits with all their strength, not to mention that the Allied fleet attacking Midway showed strong offensive power. It is obvious that they must be an extremely powerful special-mix fleet, and they may even come out in full swing."

"In this case, if the Imperial Combined Fleet wants to send troops to rescue, it must be prepared to launch a decisive battle at sea with it, that is, we must send all our forces!"

"There is a problem like this. On the one hand, the Hawaiian Islands, which are not under the naval power, will they be vacant and will they be attacked due to this? On the other hand, it is because of this sudden decisive battle that is no longer planned. How many levels of chance do we have to win!"

"First of all, I tend to be that the Allies do not have the ability to fight on both sides. Even if the Imperial Combined Fleet is all dispatched, they will never be able to capture the heavily guarded Hawaiian Islands in a short time!"

"Secondly, regarding the issue of the decisive victory rate at sea, I think the Imperial United Fleet has a great chance of victory!

Although the number of US aircraft carriers far exceeds that of the Imperial Combined Fleet, in terms of overall combat effectiveness, the Imperial Navy is still stronger than the US Pacific Fleet, which does not have much practical experience.

Especially, if the US fleet consumes too much after a long attack on Midway Island, the Imperial Combined Fleet will definitely increase its chances of winning!"

Although Japanese naval generals such as Kuroshima Turtle knew that the Chinese Huber Navy also joined the Pacific Fleet and formed the Sino-US balanced joint fleet.

But they all tacitly kept silent about the Chinese Hu Ben Navy, mainly because in their subconscious mind, the Chinese Navy is just here to "make soy sauce". They don't even have a decent warship and will not have any actual combat effectiveness at all.

The Japanese Navy had long tasted the sweetness of aircraft carriers and used carrier-based aircraft to win the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.

But until now, their thinking has not completely changed, and they still have a very strong "cannon plot". There are still many supporters in the navy who insist on using warships as the decisive force in naval battles.

The battle fleets, including the world's largest battleship Yamato, are currently preserved in the anchorage of the Pillar Island for future decisive battles. Their role is no greater than that of the American battleships sunk by Pearl Harbor.

In turn, the US Pacific Fleet was sunk all the battleships at Pearl Harbor, which instead made them release their restrained hands and feet and establish a special mixed fleet with aircraft carriers as the core, and other ships revolve around protecting aircraft carriers.

"Yoxi!"

After listening to the analysis of Kuroshima Turtle, Yamamoto Izuru gradually stretched out his eyebrows and nodded and asked, "Kukishima, what do you mean is that the Imperial Combined Fleet should all members set sail immediately?"

"Hayi!"

The Black Island Turtle nodded heavily and said in a decisive tone, "No matter whether the US military is really determined to conquer Midway or attack tentatively, the Imperial Combined Fleet must leave and set out to support Midway."

"If the US military gave up its offensive operation on Midway, then we can treat it as a military exercise."

"If the US military starts landing operations, we must rush to the full speed!

Because according to the American customary style, they will not give up attacking soldiers easily.

In this case, as long as the Imperial Combined Fleet arrives at Midway in time, the US Pacific Fleet will be forced to fight the Imperial Combined Fleet near Midway!"

"If this is the case, it will undoubtedly be a godsend opportunity for the Great Japanese Joint Fleet to severely damage the US Pacific Fleet,"

"Yoxi! Since that's the case, then that's what it means!"

The more Iroru Yamamoto heard it, the more it made sense, and immediately made a happy decision. "You guys, immediately order the fleets to immediately set up their anchors to Midway Island, and be prepared to fight to the death with the US Pacific Fleet!"

"Hayi!"

"Your Excellency General is wise!"

Yamamoto Izuru has an unattainable prestige in the Japanese Navy, and he has always been the only one who can say that.

At this moment, the Japanese joint fleet was in full swing and its morale was very high. The senior generals had long been hoping to achieve another great achievement. Therefore, everyone was excited for a moment and happily accepted the order!

Not long after, melodious whistles sounded in the Hawaiian Islands, and all warships docked in various ports rose up and slowly drove out of the port, forming an extremely large naval fleet on the nearby sea.

"The Great Japanese Empire Navy on board!"

"The Great Japanese Empire Combined Fleet will win!"

"Imperial Warriors, we are waiting for you to return in triumph!"

The grand scene of hundreds of ships launching together also deeply inspired the Japanese defenders on the Hawaiian Islands. They all stood on the shore and shouted, blessing the imperial navy that went to Midway to fight.

"The morale of the army is available, and the Japanese Empire will win this battle!"

Iroku Yamamoto, standing on the deck of the Nagamon aircraft carrier, looked at the huge fleet that was moving forward and the Japanese soldiers shouting on the shore, and involuntarily remembered the scene of leading the joint fleet to attack Pearl Harbor from a long distance.
