Sparkle all your ships, it makes a big difference.

Use the sacrificial ship method. Very efficient and effective, there's something up with destroyers taking chip damage from flagships. Stack them like this : Kongou-class/Kongou-class/Strongest decoy/Decoy/Decoy/Weakest decoy (put a Mutsuki-class here). Put double-attack equipment on them, or cut-in ones if you're feeling adventurous. Use defensive formation (line abreast) until the boss, then use offensive (line ahead). Scrap or use as modernization material any damaged ones, unscathed or lightly damaged may be repaired and resupplied if you feel like it (although I don't recommend it, especially for CAs/CLs). Remember to remove their equipment before scrapping or using for modernization.

When you run out of reserves, go back to doing the map normally. You will very quickly accumulate more cannon fodder from clears and while sparkling your fleet on 1-1. Repeat the sacificial method until you run out of reserves again.
