Imperial Overlord

: 1034 Unrestricted Submarine Warfare

Although he did not agree with the admiral's words, Marshall still felt that the focus should be on dealing with the Japanese navy: "Yes, the movement of the Japanese fleet! If the Japanese fleet is still stationed in the Pacific Ocean, we should find a way to annihilate this force! "

Although this is very difficult to do, finding a way to weaken the Japanese naval fleet is what the United States is desperately doing now.

Submarine forces were active in the island area, and the purpose was to destroy the Japanese Navy's transportation capacity as much as possible and delay its advance in the Pacific Ocean.

"In the Pacific Ocean, Japan does not have a decent supply base! The islands are in an unusable state, and Japan's construction capacity and transportation capacity are insufficient, so we still have time!" The admiral comforted Marshall.

Marshall waved his hand and refuted this unrealistic comfort: "Our time is running out! The Japanese cannot be allowed to do whatever they want!"

The Hawaiian naval port was bombed and destroyed, and the remaining facilities were destroyed before the US surrendered.

Japan's desire to use the Hawaiian Islands is simply wishful thinking. Without Japan taking advantage of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, the Combined Fleet would not have the ability to threaten areas such as San Francisco in the continental United States.

In fact, in the past month, the Japanese army's attack on the frontal battlefield was indeed invincible, but the United States did not waste these precious time.

The submarine, which has a relatively short construction period and is very powerful, was taken out by the United States as a killer and invested in the battle against Japan.

These American submarines did not target Japanese warships, but only attacked Japanese transport ships that were incapable of resistance.

They used the tactics they had learned from the German submarine force to attack Japanese transport ships in the core transport circle in groups of three or five, causing the Japanese navy to have a headache.

The low anti-submarine capability has always been a shortcoming of the Japanese Navy. Throughout World War II, the Japanese Navy lost a very large number of warships due to anti-submarine problems.

This is also an important reason why the Japanese Navy was willing to become the "U.S. Navy Seventh Fleet Anti-Submarine Squadron" after World War II.

Everyone was attracted by the German wolves' record in the Atlantic Ocean, but ignored another country that used submarines to turn the tide - the United States.

The record of the U.S. submarine force is actually quite astounding, and some statistics even surpass those terrifying wolves of the Third Reich.

It's just that these terrifying achievements were overshadowed by the light of the Battle of Midway and naval battles such as Leyte Gulf.

The U.S. Navy, which was forced by the Japanese Navy to have no way out, was forced to take out the submarine force, which immediately caused countless troubles to the Japanese Navy.

Japan, like the UK, is a maritime country that relies on shipping to maintain its local operations. What this kind of country fears most is the brutal breaking of war.

The U.S. Navy submarine force saw this weakness, and often went to the waters near Taiwan to play the idea of ​​​​the Japanese transport line.

You must know that Japan is an oil-poor country, and the country's oil can only be plundered from the oil-producing areas in Southeast Asia.

Whether it is taking the Philippine route or the Taiwan route, these oil tankers must pass through this sea area.

The American submarine, which was waiting for the rabbit, intercepted the Japanese transport ships in this sea area, and sank those Japanese transport ships of unknown origin here.

What is even more interesting is that the conflict between the Japanese Navy and the Japanese Army has a long history, and the conflict between them has also helped the US Navy a lot.

Japan is also a rare country where the army builds its own transport ships and does not rely on its own naval transport ships.

According to the idea of ​​the Japanese Army, it is not subject to the constraints of the navy, nor to their cowardice!

As a result, ninety percent of the Japanese Army's transport ships could not be protected by the Japanese Navy, and could only play with their own.

In the real history, after the Japanese Navy's transport ship was sunk by an American submarine in a certain sea area, it would not notify the Japanese Army's transport ship...

According to the idea of ​​the Japanese Navy, it is: I, the Imperial Japanese Navy, have fallen into trouble, and your army should not think about taking advantage of it for nothing!

Therefore, submarine commanders of the US Navy often encounter inexplicable situations: just yesterday, a Japanese transport ship was sunk here, and the next day, Japanese ships passed by the nearby waters...

Over time, the losses of both the army and the navy have accumulated to an even more astonishing level.

Now, the biggest problem facing the Japanese Navy is that the loss of their main fleet is not large, but their logistical supplies have begun to be tight.

The domestic industrial production fell into a semi-paralyzed state due to transportation losses, and the combat capabilities of overseas combat troops were greatly reduced because they could not receive timely supplies.

It is precisely because of this unfavorable situation that the Japanese base camp moved its mind and wanted to invest more troops in the Chinese battlefield~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After all, only China is the battlefield, and Japan's logistical supplies are still available. It is good, and the route between the mainland and the puppet Manchukuo and North China is relatively safer.

Because American submarines can basically only go back to Australia for supplies, they cannot go north to the Sea of ​​Japan on a large scale to fight.

It's fine to say that Japan is afraid of Germany interfering in its own back garden, or that Japan is afraid of American submarines and is preparing to expand the land battlefield... Anyway, Japan is preparing to turn around and deal with the quagmire of the Chinese battlefield.

According to Japanese speculation, the Chinese battlefield, which has lost external reinforcements, is now weak enough. As long as they work hard, they can end the war of aggression against China once and for all!

After all, with only China as the battlefield, Japan's logistical supplies are fairly good, and the route between the mainland and the puppet Manchukuo and North China is relatively safer.
