"Maybe we can only launch an attack with torpedo aircraft, and wait until the distance is closer before the dive bomber is released? Anyway, the Japanese aircraft carriers have been destroyed, and they do not have fighter air defense." Feng Chaoxiang, deputy commander of the Navy of the Southern Cross Republic, who came with the reinforcements, suggested.

"I'm afraid it won't work. According to the Nanyuan war report, the Japanese warships were equipped with a large amount of anti-aircraft artillery fire, and their offensive losses were heavy, and a large number of aircraft were shot down. If the three-dimensional offensive mode of dive bombing and torpedo attack were adopted, we still have the possibility of victory, otherwise the aviation army would suffer a lot of losses." Xu Zhenpeng opposed.

"Now the Japanese Joint Fleet is still 700 kilometers away from Guanghai City. As long as Lin Jixun stops the other side slightly, we will have a chance." Chen Shoukun, the oldest qualified, said: "We cannot panic. We have to wait for the best attack opportunity. By then, no Japanese fleet can escape."

"What should we do with those evacuated Japanese auxiliary ships? The submarine troops have been following them for a long time. They have hung the flags of Saar and Baiying Kingdom. Can we start?" Du Xigui reminded. The submarine troops that were monitoring the coastline of the Gaul Kingdom in the south changed shifts, and many submarines were going to return to Guanghai City for rest. As a result, the submarine troops learned about the appearance of the Japanese joint fleet in the Yizhou Strait on the road, and they immediately asked for a fight.

Considering that this submarine force had been on maritime patrol for three months, the hull was covered with various marine creatures, and the power system was seriously worn out during high-intensity use, and its combat effectiveness was extremely declined. Therefore, several naval commanders discussed and decided to let this submarine force follow the joint fleet. They did not need to directly attack the Japanese fleet, but just followed and waited for the opportunity to find a bargain.

Originally, Chen Shoukun meant to use this submarine team to intercept Japanese warships that might have missed the war. Unexpectedly, the war had not yet begun, and Japan was forced to abandon auxiliary ships. After communicating with superiors, the submarine troops changed their targets. They scattered their targets and prepared to make a fortune. What made them worried was that these ships were all hung with the flags of Saar and White Eagle, and once attacked, it might cause diplomatic disputes.

"I think foreigners will shut up as long as they achieve complete victory." Du Xigui suggested.

"As long as you silence all the words, there is no evidence even if you find fault." Xu Zhenpeng obviously hated the Japanese even more and hoped that no prisoner would be left.

"A Japanese cannot be allowed to go back alive." Feng Chaoxiang also expressed support. Seeing that everyone agreed to this plan, Chen Shoukun and Cai Tinggan also agreed. The fate of those Japanese auxiliary ships was also determined by this, but it caused some international disputes, but it was left unresolved because of the strength of Hualan Kingdom after unification.

Just as the submarine launched a hunting operation and cleared out the Japanese auxiliary ships, Lin Jixun's cruiser was approaching the huge joint fleet of Japan. He learned from the seaplane that the Sanya squadron had approached the target area, and Lin Jixun reached out and picked up the microwave communicator in front of him.

"Please note that I am Lieutenant General Lin Jixun." Lin Jixun's words spread throughout all corners of the fleet through microwave communicators and loudspeakers, so the naval officers and soldiers raised their heads and listened to the speech of the squadron commander.

Lin Jixun sorted out his own language and said, "Brothers, what is our mission today? I won't repeat it. I want to tell you a piece of news that the main fleet of the Sit Army is moving forward in this direction and preparing to annihilate the Japanese joint fleet. Now the two sides are robbing time. If we can hold the Japanese fleet for a few hours, we can get the main fleet to catch up. Otherwise, not only the Japanese will slip away, but Guanghai City will also suffer heavy losses."

Everyone's fighting spirit is getting stronger in this passage. They know that the enemy who has been in contact for many years is now going to be resolved. Is it that Japan successfully destroyed Guanghai City and escaped, or is it all left here? Everything depends on their efforts.

Lin Jixun paused and continued, "I don't want to say anything that I can do, because everyone should know where we are. The brothers of the navy are looking at us, and the people of the whole country are looking at us. Let us show the combat power of the Sit army and let the arrogant Japanese navy go but never return."

Almost at the same time, Japan was also conducting a mobilization meeting, but it was impossible for everyone to hear it with the communication methods of Japan. In addition to the naval officers and soldiers on the battleship of the Great Japanese, those who could hear the mobilization meeting were the captains who rushed over from each ship.

Looking at the many captains in front of him and the speakers of the China Unicom's electric horn microphone held by the staff, Kato Hiroji said loudly: "Kiwai Castle is right in front of you. This will be the beginning of the empire's domination of the East Continent. In this decisive battle of the rise and fall of the empire, we have gloriously become a vanguard. Today we are here to see you off on our journey. I hope you will fight bravely and live up to the holy grace of His Majesty the Emperor. During the 38th Japanese Sea Battle in Meiji, Commander Hirahachiro Togo raised this historical Z-shaped signal flag, demonstrating his determination to fight to the death. Now we also use it to express our efforts."

"Onboard." Hearing Kato Hiroji's words inspire morale, the officers and soldiers of the ship shouted long live in Japanese. The scene was very enthusiastic.

Because he saw the Seats seaplanes wandering around in the air, Kato Hiroji instinctively felt that the main fleet of the Seats Navy was nearby. The air combat had achieved considerable results, which greatly increased his confidence in the naval decisive battle. In order to boost morale, he would say such words. Of course, in order not to increase the tension of the soldiers, he did not explain the possible naval battle, but in the conversation with the captains, they arranged it before the war.

It is obvious that the brainwashing of Japanese militarism is very thorough. Inspired by Kato Hiroji's declaration, the morale of the Japanese soldiers is once again high. The artillery soldiers carefully wiped the artillery shells, and the mechanics inspected the machinery and boilers over and over again. The lookouts, regardless of the splash of the Shanghai waves, always stood on the side of the ship until their whole body was wet.

"I discovered the enemy situation, at least ten ships in the direction of 030 are approaching at high speed." The lookout post suddenly issued a warning, and Kato Hiroji's heart couldn't help but tighten.

"The entire fleet entered a state of combat and was ready to fire at any time." Kato Hiroji reacted immediately, and the gunners were in place one after another, all the waterproof cabin doors were closed, and the slippery deck suddenly became busy. An anti-aircraft gun pointed to the sky, and the huge main gun turret began to turn, looking for the target that was about to appear.
