The five hundred and eighteenth section of the honor of the Navy

This time, the Japanese Navy came four aircraft carriers, Akaga Akagi, from Flying Dragon.

It was also considered that their naval elites were dispatched. If he threw all four aircraft carriers here on the way to retreat, their victory would have been too heavy. I just wanted to say that the loss was so small. They took a huge advantage in this battle, but in just two or three hours, everything on the battlefield changed. They couldn't say the words of small losses. Now all the Japanese understand that the Americans were really trying their best to fight with them some small warships, not in the eyes of the Americans. The American battleships relied on their own thick skin and flesh, and they didn't care about the shells shot from the heavy cruisers and destroyers next to them. They directly attacked the aircraft carriers, which caused two of the four Japanese aircraft carriers to be killed within less than half an hour of the war.

"We can't continue like this. We order the remaining two aircraft carriers to escape the battlefield as fast as possible, concentrate the last aviation fuel for the final attack, and let the pilot be prepared for a desperate attack." General Yamamoto had already moved to the Akagi aircraft carrier at this time. He had served as the captain of the aircraft carrier. He could only feel a little safe on this aircraft carrier. The huge gap made him feel a little unbearable. When there was no one just now, he gently touched the speed of his heart beating, which surprised him himself. The change was really too fast. Now we must be prepared to cut off the arm. If the remaining two aircraft carriers are not quickly retreated, then this attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States was also a victory, but this victory was too painful for the Japanese, and they could not afford to lose at all.

Japan still has a long way to go. Originally, this plan was to make the warship with the least loss, so that the US Navy would not have any combat effectiveness within a year. Now their goal has been achieved, but if the loss is too great, the Japanese Navy would not have combat effectiveness. This year would be no longer necessary for Japan. The Americans could build a stronger fleet within a year, but only they themselves knew how many years it took the Japanese to build this fleet. At that time, Japan's economy was still possible, but now if Japan's economy could bear such a large fleet, it would probably be not far away for the Japanese economy to collapse.

It was because Japan's financial situation was impossible to help General Yamamoto establish a navy here that he made this painful decision. The remaining dozen warships may have to fill the stomach for the US battleships, and they must let the two aircraft carriers run out. The army is still very good. The quality of the Japanese Navy is very high. After General Yamamoto made the decision, all the remaining warships rushed forward desperately. Leave time for the two aircraft carriers and three destroyers to retreat, which is already the largest retreat fleet. All the talented officers and soldiers on the warships were transferred to the two aircraft carriers. The remaining people must fight to the death, and the US fleet cannot catch up with them. This is the last hope of the Japanese Navy. They have accumulated a lot of experience in this battle. If they are allowed to die here, it can be said that the Japanese Navy's stop will be completely defeated.

In fact, for the Japanese Navy, what is missing is not just warships. Although Japan's education level is much more advanced than China, it is still a certain gap compared with European and American countries. Grassroots education can be said to be basically perfect, but compared with developed countries, the ones that are inferior to those of high-level education is not a little bit higher than those of developed countries. If they cannot keep up, then the junior and intermediate officers in the army will be relatively lacking. The Japanese Navy is especially lacking in Japanese naval exercises. Naval officers are many times more noble than naval sailors, so naval officers are given priority in retreat when retreating. Although some young and strong officers teach to live and die with warships, they eventually set foot on the Akagi aircraft carrier, and the Japanese Navy still needs them in the future.

The US Navy soon discovered this change in the Japanese fleet. They would never let these two aircraft carriers escape. Anyway, the US Navy has taken the initiative. Although the speed of the Japanese aircraft carrier can reach 35 knots, it is the USS Akagi aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy. Because it is the latest aircraft carrier, and his aircraft has lost more in the war, it can reach this speed. As for the other USS Akagi aircraft carriers that absolutely do not have this speed, it is the oldest aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy. Its status in the navy can be said to be sacred. General Halsey has long understood this warship, and it will never let the flagship of the fleet return to Japan intact. If this is the case, it will be a humiliation to him. Now it has taken the initiative and cannot keep the symbol of the Japanese. Then he might as well go home to coax the children.

"Appoint two battleships to move forward. No matter how much the price they pay, they must keep the enemy's flagship for me. If they cannot keep their flagships, we will be sorry for the dead brothers over Pearl Harbor. This is also a battle for our own honor. The US Navy is not something they can bully at will. Even if we lose our lives, we must defend the dignity of the US Navy." General Halsey made his own voice in the conference room of the Pennsylvania, and all the sailors below were repeating this sentence. We must defend the dignity of the US Navy.

Inspired by this sentence, all the naval officers and soldiers were ready to die. Since our brothers at Pearl Harbor can sacrifice their lives for the motherland, why can't we? This fierce war kicked off its prelude. The Americans' desperate fighting style also made the Japanese fight, and the Japanese themselves were more dedicated in the war.

Although the Japanese Navy is a bit greedy and afraid of death compared to the Japanese Army, it is undeniable that the Japanese Navy also exerted the spirit of Bushido at this moment. All destroyers rushed forward without any chance, in order to win those few minutes. The destroyers seemed to be made of paper in front of the battleship, and they couldn't even hold on to a shell, but they still went forward one after another.
