This situation makes Koga Feng

Since the third day of the US military's bombing, he has received information... The US Navy has 20 aircraft carriers.

"How is it possible? 20 aircraft carriers?!" This information almost scared Koga Fengichi: "Not long ago, the American ghost animals did not even have aircraft carriers available. Where did these 20 aircraft carriers emerge?"

"It's true! Your Excellency General!" Counselor Ito replied: "Our submarine force and seaplane even took photos of some of the aircraft carriers..."

As he said that, Staff Ito handed over the photos and information to Koga Fengyi.

Koga Feng flipped through the photos casually, then sat on the chair, stunned for a while before saying something: "Is this the industrial capacity of American ghost animals that Yamamoto mentioned? It's so surprising!"

Before Yamamoto Iroku was killed, he reminded the Japanese generals several times that he should force the Americans to the negotiating table as soon as possible, otherwise the longer the time will be more beneficial to the United States, because the United States has strong industrial capabilities, and this ability is developed, and it is almost impossible to defeat it.

The Japanese generals were disdainful of this before. At this time, when Koga Feng faced the 20 US aircraft carriers, he realized that what Yamamoto Iroku was saying was true. At the same time, he also understood why Yamamoto Iroku was always so anxious to lead the Japanese joint fleet to fight the US Navy in a decisive battle.?

Of course, the Japanese army did not know that 8 of the 20 aircraft carriers in the US Navy were escort aircraft carriers, but even so... even if 12 aircraft carriers suddenly appeared on the battlefield, it was amazing enough.

"Great General, now..." Staff Ito hesitated for a moment and said, "I think the fleet will withdraw its own country and rest, and have a chance to fight again!"

Of course, what Ito said makes sense. Three aircraft carriers are facing twenty aircraft carriers and more than ninety carrier-based aircraft carriers against more than nine hundred carrier-based aircraft of the enemy. No matter how hard it is to fight, the Japanese joint fleet is in danger of being wiped out.

Of course, Koga Fengichi knew this, and he sighed, his body, which had just been erect, softened like a wilted cabbage.

"Ito-kun!" Koga Fengichi said slowly: "The most important thing now is not the joint fleet, but the issue of the Great Japanese Empire!"

Ito Consultant understands what Koga Feng meant in his words. The US Navy suddenly had these 20 aircraft carriers. On the other hand, this aircraft carrier cannot be built in one or two days. In other words, there may be many aircraft carriers being built and in constant service at this time.

So……

Even if Japan defeated these US aircraft carriers in front of it and even sank all of these twenty aircraft carriers, will the US Navy build more aircraft carriers and put them into war? When will this be the end of Japan?!

If Japan cannot see the end, then there is only one result, that is, the demise of the Japanese Empire.

At this time, Koga Fengichi suddenly felt that what determines the outcome of the war was not the "Bushido spirit", nor strategy or tactics, but the industrial capacity of a country... and Japan's industrial capacity is far behind that of the United States, which is doomed to fail in this war. (Note: To be precise, what determines the war is the comprehensive national strength, but Koga Fengichi has not yet understood this way)

"Grandmaster General!" Ito continued to persuade: "Because of this, we must preserve the Japanese joint fleet, otherwise we will never have the capital to fight against American ghost animals!"

After thinking about it, Koga Feng shook his head and said, "No, we can't just withdraw our country!"

"Your Excellency General..."

"Ito-kun!" Koga Feng interrupted the words of the Ito staff: "What do you think if our soldiers knew that the American ghost animals had 20 aircraft carriers?"

When the staff member Ito was stunned when he heard this, he thought about it and replied: "Their morale will be greatly hit!"

This is for sure. Just like Koga Fengichi's reaction after knowing this information, the Japanese army is not a fool. After they knew that the US Navy became so powerful and might become stronger in the future, they also knew that Japan would only have the ending of failure, so it was easy to breed the idea of ​​losing the can... Since Japan is going to fail in the end, what's the point of paying life for this war?

"Well!" Koga Feng nodded and said, "So, this information must not be revealed. And we cannot leave like this. If we leave like this, on the one hand, it will make people laugh, and think that we were scared away by American ghosts; on the other hand, it will further deepen the gap between the navy and the army, because this is a death-death!"

Staff Ito felt that what Koga Feng said made sense, but soon became embarrassed again: "General, can we just send the Japanese joint fleet up to fight the American ghost beasts like this?!"

"Of course not!" Koga Fengichi shook his head: "But we must have at least one battle. No matter whether this battle succeeds or fails... we have an excuse to withdraw. Do you understand?"

"So that's how it is!" Ito couldn't help but realize.

But the next second, he shook his head secretly again, because this meant that another Japanese pilot would be sacrificed meaninglessly.

After several days of preparation, the Japanese joint fleet finally launched an attack on the seventh day of the US bombing.

It should be said that Koga Fengyi's attack was planned very carefully. He ordered the Japanese joint fleet to attack in the dark... The US Navy has always been not good at night battles. At the same time, even if it is discovered by the US Navy at night, it will not be besieged by carrier-based aircraft on twenty aircraft carriers of the US Navy. If this situation occurs, the Japanese joint fleet will be completely wiped out.

Moreover, the target of the Japanese Joint Fleet is not the US Navy's First Aircraft Carrier Team, which is closest to the Marshall Islands, responsible for intercepting the Japanese Marshall Islands.

Because Koga Feng knew that the aircraft carrier brigade had been ready to fight, their vigilance must be the highest, and there would be no great results in launching a sneak attack on the aircraft carrier brigade.

So the Japanese Combined Fleet bypassed the First Aircraft Carrier Team and moved a distance towards Tarava. Then, in the dark, they sent out a total of fifty aircraft and bombers. Their goal was to seize the Third Aircraft Carrier Team of the US Navy, which was responsible for seizing Tarava's air supremacy.

At this time, the third aircraft carrier brigade of the US Navy was not prepared at all.

The reason is that the mission of the Third Aircraft Carrier Team was too easy... Tarawa did not have Japanese fighter jets that needed to be shot down at all, so almost the moment the Third Aircraft Carrier Team arrived near Tarawa, the Third Aircraft Carrier Team completed the mission.

At this time, they were just sending fighter jets to bomb Tarava like training.
