The most intuitive feeling for Yamamoto 56 is that in several major naval battles, the U.S. torpedo planes and bombers could easily break through the Japanese fleet's anti-aircraft artillery barrage, but the Japanese fighters did not seem to be so lucky unless at all costs Using intensive cover breakthrough tactics and conducting close assaults can break through the anti-aircraft artillery fire of the escort ships of the US aircraft carrier, but this intensive penetration tactics will pay a high price. Most of the fighters were shot down. Yamamoto 56 has seriously summarized why The US ship's air defense network has such a strong air defense force, which is not only the weak defense of the Japanese fighter planes, but also related to the use of radio proximity fuzes for American artillery shells. |[-] Literature

All U.S. Navy ship-mounted guns are uniformly installed MK12 38-caliber 127mm dual-mounted high-level dual-purpose guns. This is the standard secondary gun configuration for U.S. Navy battleships, cruisers, and ocean-going destroyers. The initial velocity of the gun is about 5000 meters, range 1000 meters, air range 85 meters, pitch range is minus 22 degrees to plus [-] degrees, can be equipped with grenades, armor-piercing shells, ordinary anti-aircraft shells, radio proximity fuze anti-aircraft shells, flares, personnel killing The most important thing is that the gun has a clip-type integrated bomb feeding device, which is transported by hinged crawlers. The rate of fire is about [-] to [-] rounds per minute. Compared with the manual loading of the Japanese army with a caliber of more than [-] mm The rate of fire of the anti-aircraft guns is more than three times faster.

Yamamoto 56 knows very well that the fuze of the Japanese Navy's anti-aircraft artillery shells is the iconic Type [-] timing fuze, which needs to form a barrage accumulation in the air to hit the enemy aircraft. The US Navy uses a radio proximity fuze, which allows a larger hit area, as long as The artillery shells of the enemy aircraft can be automatically detonated within a certain range to destroy the enemy aircraft, which greatly increases the hit rate of the artillery fire. As for the radio proximity fuze required by the Japanese Navy, relevant agencies have studied it for half a year and still have no results. |[-] Literature

In addition, in terms of radar detection, the Japanese navy is far less advanced than the wavelength performance of the American shipboard radar. Japanese radar can only detect the approximate position of the enemy ship, while the American radar can measure the size, azimuth and distance of the enemy ship. Accurate positioning is what Japanese radars require. It is incomparable, so in the Pacific sea battle, the U.S. Navy always finds the opponent first and strikes first. This is also one of the reasons why the Japanese Navy fleet suffered heavy losses.

Almost all of these are hardware problems, and these problems are things that Yamamoto 56 has more than enough energy to do. Looking at the livid Tojo Hideki, Yamamoto 56 knows the days of the most powerful guy in Japanese history in the past two days. It's very difficult, bad news is everywhere, true and false news are mixed with gossip, making it difficult to distinguish the true from the false?Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 895

The prime minister of the great Japanese empire should rely on gossip and rumors to judge the actual situation?This is simply child's play, but the bombing by the Americans was very thorough, and everything in life, production, communications, transportation, etc. was destroyed. The problem of weapons and ammunition, the problem of combat supplies of the troops, and other problems make Hideki Tojo exhausted. A person who is most willing to seize power, and even speaks out that losing power is worse than dying, now he is not concerned about this right and even Responsibility is feared.

Under the large number of napalm incendiary bombs dropped by the new American bombers, the urbanization of Japan has become a sea of ​​​​flames. The Japanese Army and Navy Air Force lacks fighter jets equipped with night flight equipment. The most important thing is the lack of night flight pilots. Now the Japanese Army and Navy The graduation training time for aviation pilots has been reduced from 10 hours to [-] hours. It is said that some aviation school brief training classes only retain four [-]-minute flying time. These flights are real killers in the air.

Insufficient ground anti-aircraft firepower drove the American heavy bombers straight in. The sky of the Empire of Japan suddenly became unsafe. Tokyo was almost razed to the ground. Three bombings of different scales caused more than 27 deaths and more than 20 injuries. , A large number of dead people died every day, and the number of deaths continued to increase every day. Water and food were cut off, and most importantly, almost all factories were shut down or turned into ashes.

In the Heka Mountains stretching across Hokkaido, the passage to the emperor's secret bunker is in a small village between two mountains. The small village of a dozen families does not attract any attention at all, but here is a secret stationed. Plainclothes Gendarmerie, the nature of the Japanese is to dig holes, which can be ultimately reflected in the various fortifications and bunkers they built. It seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that the Yamato people are descendants of moles. In terms of digging holes, Japan Humans do have their own merits.

Under the dim light, Emperor Hirohito's expression was very embarrassing. Everything seemed to be about to defeat the Great Japanese Empire?There is a smell of failure everywhere, and the passionate atmosphere at the beginning of the war is nowhere to be found. The death of nearly a million officers and soldiers left Japan with white sails, and Emperor Hirohito began to doubt whether his previous decisions were correct. ?Especially when he was deeply trapped in the Chinese battlefield, he forcibly launched the Far East operation that was not allowed by his national power, and then invaded Southeast Asia. A series of developments that made the situation worse. Now Emperor Hirohito can no longer express his true feelings.

If, without the large-scale and continuous bombing by the U.S. military, Emperor Hirohito would still be advancing from one victory to another, all he would have heard was frequent news of success, but the facts told him that the real battle situation was far from what he knew , The imperial Japanese army often littered with corpses in the Chinese battlefield, the Far East battlefield, the Southeast Asian battlefield, and the Pacific battlefield.

Emperor Hirohito was most angry that not only Hideki Tojo was hiding from him, but so many navy and army generals were hiding from him. He became a laughing stock in the world, a clown who danced solo in "the emperor's new clothes" .

Ishihara Wanji's strategic decisive battle in the Far East has affected the General Staff Headquarters. The General Staff Headquarters, which has always urged the troops below to attack, now uncharacteristically requires the Kwantung Army to be cautious. This means that the situation of the Kwantung Army's troops in the Far East does not seem to be good. , using the most elite main force of the Imperial Army to attack the frigid Far East, even food has become a huge difficulty. If the troops are all sold out, what is the use of occupying so many empty and barren wastelands?

The angry Emperor Hirohito faced the pale current Prime Minister Hideki Tojo. He wanted to know the real situation of the Great Japanese Empire, and Hideki Tojo could only come up with a summary of this month's National Situation Strategic War Report.
