Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto was full of confidence and took a transport plane from the mainland of the Eastern Empire to the Hawaiian Islands.
Although, it was a full 6,000 kilometers from the mainland of the Eastern Empire to the Hawaiian Islands.
It was naturally impossible for the Eastern Empire’s transport plane to fly directly from the mainland to the Hawaiian Islands. It had to go through Guam and the Marshall Islands to fly to the Hawaiian Islands.
Although this was a little troublesome, it was much faster than a warship.
On June 11, 1841, at the Honolulu Naval Port in the Hawaiian Islands, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, commander of the Eastern Empire Navy’s Combined Fleet, secretly met with Admiral Hasben Kimmel, commander of the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse State Navy.
"Mr. Yamamoto, welcome to come from afar." Admiral Hasben Kimmel’s face was full of smiles. "Zero Zero Zero"
"General Kimmel, it’s my honor!" Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto seemed very humble.
Although this was the first time the two met, they acted like old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
In fact, neither of them knew that they were opponents in another time and space.
Isoroku Yamamoto successfully led the combined fleet to sneak attack the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Navy, almost defeating the Pacific Fleet, allowing the Eastern Empire Navy to almost control the Pacific Ocean in the early stages of the war. Admiral Hasben Kimmel was dismissed because of this failure and took responsibility for this failure.
After a brief greeting, the conversation between the two sides entered the main topic.
"General, according to the intelligence we have received, the Russians have realized the threat in the Far East. Their Black Sea Fleet has set out from the Mediterranean and is preparing to rush to the Far East. And their target is undoubtedly us!" said Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto.
Admiral Hasben Kimmel nodded: "Indeed, this is a very difficult problem for us. According to our previous plan, we will work together to deal with the Russian Pacific Fleet. If their Black Sea Fleet is added, then we may have a hard time."
"Yes, General. Even if there is a mistake, we may fail. After all, the Russian fleet is very strong, there is no doubt about that." Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto said.
"So, what are you going to do?" Admiral Hasben Kimmel asked.
"General, the next battle is crucial for both the Empire and the entire anti-Russian alliance. We must do our best to win this battle in order to win. If we unfortunately lose this battle. Then, this is destined to be a doomsday for the Eastern Empire. But the anti-Russian alliance will also suffer unimaginable damage." General Isoroku Yamamoto looked serious.
Admiral Hasben Kimmel nodded repeatedly, he also thought so.
The reason why the Lighthouse Navy was willing to joinThe purpose of entering this war is to severely damage the Russian Empire and reverse the current decline faced by the anti-Russian alliance.
Otherwise, if the Russian Empire continues to win, the anti-Russian alliance will lose. And the Lighthouse Country will naturally not have a good ending.
"General, we must take action against the Russians in advance. I hope to launch an attack on the Russians in half a month. Try to severely damage or even destroy the Russian Pacific Fleet first! In this way, we will have more time and energy to deal with the Russian Black Sea Fleet." Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto proposed.
Admiral Hasben Kimmel frowned, and then said: "I have no opinion on this plan. However, I need to report to the top leaders immediately and get the approval of the Naval Operations Department."
"Of course, there is no problem with this. I believe that the top leaders of your country will not refuse." Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto seemed very confident.
Admiral Hasben Kimmel agreed.
Afterwards, Admiral Hasben Kimmel sent a telegram to the country to seek domestic opinions.
Admiral Harold Stark, the Chief of Naval Operations of the Lighthouse Country, rushed to the White Palace as soon as possible to report to the Grand Commander Franklin.
After a little consideration, Franklin agreed to act in advance. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
For Franklin, he cares about the result, not the process0… As long as the Lighthouse Navy and the East Empire Navy win this battle, that’s enough. As for how to win, he doesn’t care.
Soon, the decision of the Lighthouse Country’s top leaders was fed back to the Lighthouse Country Navy Pacific Fleet.
Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the news.
"General, then it depends on our cooperation. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation this time." Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto said.
"Of course, the Russians are our common enemy, so we will naturally go all out to defeat them." Admiral Hasben Kimmel said.
Then, they discussed the specific details of the plan.
Soon, they reached an agreement.
A week later, the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Navy will leave the Honolulu Naval Port and secretly go to the waters south of the Aleutian Islands.
Then, the Eastern Empire Navy Combined Fleet will also leave the Yokosuka Naval Port and go to join the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Navy.
After that, the navies of the two countries joined forces to sneak attack the Nemuro Naval Port of the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Empire Navy in the north of Hokkaido Island, striving to severely damage the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Empire Navy in one fell swoop.
After reaching an agreement, General Isoroku Yamamoto left the Xiaweiyi Islands without stopping, returned to the mainland of the Eastern Empire, and began to prepare for this plan.
On the evening of June 17, the main force of the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Navy, namely 18 battleships and 4 aircraft carriers, was in the midst of a large number of cruisers.Under the escort of the warships and destroyers, they left the Honolulu naval port at night and headed for the North Pacific Ocean.
Three days later, all the main battleships of the Eastern Empire Navy Combined Fleet also left the Yokosuka Naval Port.
The plan of the Eastern Empire Navy and the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Country Navy has begun to be implemented.
Next, it depends on whether they can realize this plan, whether they can successfully sneak attack the Nemuro Naval Port and severely damage the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Empire Navy in one fell swoop.
If successful, then the sea control in the Far East will quickly fall into their control. If the Russian Empire Navy wants to regain sea control, it is simply impossible. .
