Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

In the northern hemisphere, winter is coming, and the climate in Hawaii is getting cooler. Only locals who are not afraid of the cold are still dressed in short dresses and play in the water, and there is no trace of tension in the coming of war.

The Chinese, who occupy at least one-quarter of the population on the island, were either expelled or detained in centralized detention. Their original industries and jobs were quickly taken over by the Japanese who flocked in. On the streets, there were basically no Chinese speaking voices, and more were the figures of American naval soldiers and officers running around in cars.

In the natural port on Oahu that stretched into the land in a bird-like clawed shape, countless warships were squeezed out, including the "South Dakota-class" battleship that the US military had just served for a short time! As well as many aircraft carriers and heavy cruisers, the scale is several times larger than the previous Pacific Fleet!

This is only part of the power of the entire joint navy! One of the special mixed fleets has advanced and entered the Sea of ​​Japan, confronting the Chinese North Sea Fleet across the Korean Peninsula; the other special mixed fleet has gone south to Guam and the Philippines, maintaining vigilance against China's East China Sea, South China Sea Fleet and Ocean Fleet.

Even so scattered, the navy, which concentrates all the essence of the United States, Japan, and Britain in the Far East and the Pacific region, is still powerful and amazing!

Walking on the flat and clean pier, beside you are the shadows cast by huge warships like towering hills. With this as the background, Commander Kimmel and his group of people are much more majestic.

But on the commander's face, there was no way to see too much satisfaction from this. His cheeks, full of pleated cheeks and forehead were pitch black, with an indelible old manly scent. His eyes, which were squinting by the sunlight on the sea, were shining with ghost fire.

The person who accompanied him for a walk was Lieutenant General Chester Nimitz, who should have served as the commander of the US fleet before him. At the beginning, President Roosevelt was impatient with Commander Richardson. After dismissing him, he first thought of letting Nimitz take over, but he refused on the grounds that his qualifications were insufficient. So Kimmel took office.

But Lieutenant General Nimitz never expected that he had made his good intentions humble, but for no reason he let his good friends take the blame. As soon as he came out, he bumped into the Chinese Navy, which was beginning to turn against him. He was ruined several times in a row and was in danger of his later years.

Nimitz felt very sorry for this, so Kimmel revealed that he had stepped down after the battle and recommended him to replace him. Nimitz agreed happily, which also made Roosevelt feel very pleased.

"I'm sorry, Hasburn, you've encountered such a bad thing. It was supposed to be my responsibility, but now it's embarrassing you."

Nimitz was tall and straight as if he was a pine tree. Compared to Kimmel, who was not much older, he seemed much more energetic. Even if he apologized, his head was raised high, and the expression on his face was just right.

Admiral Kimmel waved his hand indifferently. He said in a low voice: "Saying such a thing is beyond your reach! Chester, we all know each other well. Even if you come, you may encounter such a difficult battle, something bad will happen. However, if you can get some useful inspiration from my failure, I don't mind waiting after retirement. Sit down and have a good talk."

Nimitz smiled faintly: "That's probably not going to take a few years. Well, I heard that the Japanese had formulated plans to attack Pearl Harbor before. If there were no Chinese, then they would have a great chance to successfully damage the Pacific Fleet. So now, will the Chinese have similar possibilities?"

He is also a decisive person, with strategic ability and overall view of the situation, and he is the first to be the focus of the entire US Navy.

Admiral Kimmel looked up at the sparkling sea, where several warships were driving narrow waterways. The entire bay seemed very wide, but hundreds of ships piled up inside seemed very crowded.

Raising his hand to sweep the entire harbor, Admiral Kimmel said: "Do you think if the Chinese could throw some of the terrible super bombs they were onto Japan, throw some of them over, or even sank several large warships into the waterway, what is the chance of our ships docking here to escape the attack?"

Nimitz's face turned cold and he shook his head decisively: "There is no chance! We cannot even know what methods the Chinese have, but they can definitely achieve such a target of attack. This is why you insist on dispersing the fleet as much as possible, right?"

After seeing the public photos of bombing Tokyo, everyone knows that if the bomb that kills more than 200 to 300 meters at a time destruction of a small town, no matter how strong the warship is, it will not be able to withstand it.

Kimmel said: "It's not only that. After all, the navy is a military branch that focuses on mobile combat. It's too shameful to stay in the military port and be beaten passively. We must also keep the Chinese Navy alert as much as possible. In this way, we can give full play to the advantages of the coalition's manpower and number of ships, and make them tired to the greatest extent. The ship equipment is aging and damaged, so as to win the successful strike at critical moments!"

This is the safest way to defeat the enemy that General Kimmel, his staff, and even the entire U.S. Navy Staff.

Lieutenant General Nimitz also knew very well. All the British and Japanese navy top leaders frankly admitted that they were not sure of seriously injured or defeating the almost unsolvable advanced weapon forces. Everyone has used the conventional means that they had used, but what was the result? See the outcome of the Japanese Combined Fleet and the last major siege.

Finally, I came up with a solution that was not a solution - to compete with the Chinese for resource loss!

This includes naval officers and soldiers, ships, oil, ammunition and medicine supplies, etc.

The coalition controls more than 80% of the world's marine resources. All war-related materials, fleet personnel, ships, and shipbuilding speed have absolute advantages. Of course, Japan can basically be removed from the list--their navy is not one or more, and they are all dead.

As the United Kingdom and the United States add up, the total naval power of all other countries around the world is much greater. Now the Chinese navy is emerging, with a small scale and a lot of main ships, but the overall tonnage and savings are far from being as accumulated by old powers for hundreds of years.

According to the plan of the General Staff, all maritime forces of the coalition forces were mobilized to surround China and rattle on the long coastline of more than 20,000 kilometers, causing its four major fleets to be vigilant at any time.

As a result, over time, the number of Chinese navy is too small. Often when it comes to ships and other personnel, the officers and soldiers who are constantly moving will inevitably be too tired, have powerful weapons, and cannot exert much power.

Secondly, it is the consumption of ship weapons and even electronic weapons. Warships and radar equipment have a lifespan. The engines work under extremely high loads. If they run for a long time, they will inevitably wear and aging. They must stop for maintenance and maintenance. They may even be overhauled. Once they are used too much, they will be too thick armor and sharp cannons.

Then there is the consumption of oil materials.

China is now surrounded by them, and all the overseas transportation supplements have been interrupted. Britain's high-quality coal, iron ore, rubber and tin resources have long stopped replenishing. Even if China has some stock, it cannot withstand the consumption of war.

If the United States has interrupted its oil, steel, copper and other resources, China will probably be in trouble. Although these strategic resources have outputs in various parts of China, don’t forget that most places are blocked. Mining requires time and equipment. The ore that is opened, refining and other things also require a lot of electricity and coal, and more importantly, suitable equipment is needed. The steel mills on the coast of China used to eat foreign high-quality ores, but they cannot adapt to the barren ores they produce. If there is a major change, they must stop.

The coalition forces made up their minds to use this dangerous and flexible means of contact to force China to increase consumption, thereby giving full play to its huge advantages in industry and manpower. They forced the other party to fail to withstand the consumption and collapse!

If you achieve that goal, you will really win without a fight.

With this strategy as the core, including the Sino-North Korea border, it is also one of the branches that allows Japan, which has no other manpower, to use up China's ammunition and equipment, and to drag down the defenders.

No one in the entire coalition country was arrogantly thinking that once their army arrived, they could sweep China to the ground for searching for teeth. How long has it been, MacArthur, who was dissatisfied, was slapped fiercely in the face, and he must have given others a living lesson, right?

"But now it seems that the plan is far from going smoothly. The Chinese are more difficult than we imagined, but God made the Japanese volcano erupt again, winning two precious months for them. It seems that they don't plan to let us win too easily."

General Kimmel's sigh made Nimitz feel that's the case. The navy is actually a very superstitious army. After traveling around the seven seas all year round, strange things have emerged one after another.

Just say this time, the Kyushu forward base was planned to be well-planned, and directly used it and the entire Japan as the frontline base to force China to enter an endless war of attrition. Unexpectedly, there would be such a large-scale volcano and earthquake!

Kimmel gestured for the entire Pearl Harbor again: "With the war breaking out, this place will become more and more important. The Chinese will definitely try to destroy it, but we have not yet had a way to kill their hidden base in the south. This is all a big trouble, and you have to solve it with Chester!"

Nimitz narrowed his eyes and said confidently: "I believe they won't be happy for long! So, this time you agreed to send a squadron into the Chinese Sea to fight. Is it also a sign of hiding the truth?"

Kimmel blinked at him: "It's true that I can't hide it from you! We must seize the initiative in the war and cannot leave any opportunity for the Chinese!"

Nimitz breathed a long sigh: "Okay! I will try my best to get more support. Hopefully, you can hear good news about your victory soon!"

Kimmel nodded without comment, but there was no sign of excitement on his face. In his mind, he once again recalled the nightmare battle that happened in the South Pacific not long ago. It was so unprepared for him to come. How did the opponents of the Eastern Continent do it? It is always a big hidden danger!

Just as they were discussing the future and arrangements of the entire navy in half-handed manner, a huge fleet was scattering in the waters of the Japanese Sea, forming a huge formation of hundreds of miles wide, advancing towards the Tsushima Strait.

This is the main force who escaped the United Navy Northern Squadron, the commander, and Fletcher, deputy commander of the US Navy Pacific Fleet!

The crazy decision made by the coalition command made the navy led by Fletcher very angry. They cut against three Chinese main battleships outside the small Ryukyu Islands, and were beaten to the point where they were slashed. Now they were hibernating near the sea to take the initiative to find a whole North Sea fleet. Isn’t this sincere death?

However, this was the decision of the whole person. No matter how much Fletcher argued, it was useless. Moreover, when he looked at the appearance of the Japanese Joint Fleet soldiers who were almost like madmen in the fleet, he also knew that the overall madness was not something he could only stop.

So he cursed the damn guys, and he arranged the defensive formations of the entire Northern Squadron to a level that was unsparkable. Then he took over the battleship of the North Carolina and advanced steadily.

In the entire Japanese sea, at least fifty submarines of various countries are wandering around and searching the Internet to prevent the Chinese from lurking. The sonar of all destroyers and cruisers is fully opened, and the sound waves are like flashlight beams. They are checked like sieves that are underwater for a depth of one or two hundred meters, and must ensure that there are no mistakes.

In the air, from the Korean Peninsula and the northern part of Kyushu, Japan, an arc-shaped warning network of thousands of kilometers wide was formed. From 10,000 meters to the horizontal plane, thousands of aircraft were busy day and night, which was really a tension!

In the waters of the Yellow Sea and East China Sea, the Japanese submersible fleet, which was determined to fight against the Chinese Navy, used constant casualties to exchange for timely enemy movements, although the cost was huge. Fortunately, the effect was quite good. Until Fletcher's fleet successfully drove through the Tsushima Strait and began to enter the Incheon Sea along the way northward, the main force of the opponent's fleet was still providing firepower support to the land battlefield.

Fletcher breathed a sigh of relief in secret, this was quite ideal.

The entire airspace around the Yellow Sea was full of fighter jets from both sides fighting wildly. Rescue seaplanes and submarines were one after another, and they were very busy, but they were lively.

Fletcher's squadron was composed of four battleships and two aircraft carriers. However, there were more than a dozen heavy cruisers, and hundreds of fighter jets could provide support at any time above their heads. In the rear, there were at least two thousand latest fighter jets as support. In short, they would not be allowed to die in the sea.

The plan seemed to be going smoothly. The next pass was to cross the narrowest place between the Shandong Peninsula and the Korean Peninsula. The entire sea surface was only 200 kilometers wide, and the sea water became shallower and even submarines were difficult to hide. The opponent's fighter plane could see it as soon as it was launched, which was very dangerous!

Fletcher ordered the entire fleet: "Everyone is cheered up! We must prevent any possible blows! Gentlemen, this is an unprecedented test!"

The remaining soldiers of the Japanese fleet were very brave and consciously acted as peripheral barriers. Eight heavy cruisers were lined up in a row, scattered as a whole to prevent being bombarded by super bombs, and rushing towards the north with all their might!

All this can't be hidden from the net of heaven and earth set up by Zhu Bin. The coalition fleet lined up with strange formations and headed north, drawing large trajectories on the sea surface with a very vivid image, which made him move his index finger.

However... thinking about the larger deployment later, Zhu Bin smacked his lips regretfully, gave up the tempting idea of ​​killing them in one breath, and ordered the "tiger's den": "Pull out the shore-based electromagnetic cannon for a walk! How much effect can be produced depends on your level!"

"Okay! I'm busy with something!"

On the Liugong Island Fort, the colonel in charge of the electromagnetic cannon hung up the phone excitedly and turned around and shouted at the people under his command: "Brothers, we are here to make a big deal! The American devils' navy ran to our doorstep to show off. The boss has an order, so let's greet us happily! The opportunity is rare, no one is allowed to let me lose my links, understand?"

"clear!"

A group of technical officers responded with a loud bang, and the cannon that had been silent for a long time showed its appearance from the bunker again!

It was still the main body of the 280mm cannon, but after the last use, I stopped and made several months of improvement.

At this time, the entire gun barrel was completely wrapped in the outer structure, and the shells used were no longer the standard warheads of the previous ones, but were really used for electromagnetic guns. They were more slender, more solid in the material, and more aerodynamic high-end things. Even the warheads had cancelled explosives, all of which were pure kinetic energy strikes!

It is still a reconnected gun structure that emits chemical energy and is accelerated with high energy electromagnetic, but the turret can rotate 360 ​​degrees, have a higher initial speed, a larger strike range, and a strike distance. After changing to a super-alloy needle-shaped or poly-edged warhead with only 50 kilograms, it can easily exceed 200 kilometers without pressure!

With the help of an airborne aircraft and the radar set up on the mountain, the coordinates of the enemy ship were calibrated together. The greatly raised muzzle aimed at an enemy ship that first broke into the firing world in the form of parabolic ballistics!

It is judged from the clear picture that it was one of the new "Kaohsiung-class" heavy cruisers that the Japanese army later built. The tall huge bridge and flying flags undoubtedly became the gunners' favorite prey.

The electromagnetic gun fire control computer accurately counted down and flashed rapidly to the end point. The colonel decisively pressed the button. A dull knock on the entire island was blown, and a conical shell more than two meters long shot up at ten times the speed of sound!

At a terrible speed, the shells rushed out of the outer sea in a blink of an eye, sinking along the curve of the earth under its own weight and gravity. Lightning was almost flat against the sea surface, and hitting the heavy cruiser at an end speed of more than five times!
Chapter completed!
