The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"Hey! Fighter?! Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?!"

This is simply a question many times.But the chief of communications still dutifully repeated: "Sure! The direction is due east, the height is 2 kilometers, the number is at least 150, and the distance... is less than [-] kilometers!"

With such a detailed report, there was no longer any doubt. Yoshida Zengo's face turned green immediately, and he asked anxiously: "Can you determine whether it is the fighter plane there? Is it American?"

The chief of communications shook his head hesitantly: "I can't tell! The one painted on their wings is not the usual Chinese badge of blue sky and white sun, but a blue five-pointed star!"

"Pentagram?!" Yoshida Zengo and Fukuru Shigeru were confused. What kind of team is this?It seems that the Chinese force that was jointly encircled and suppressed used five stars, but it was red at that time.Americans sometimes use a five-pointed star, and they are often white and blue, what is this? !

Fortunately, Commander Yoshida reacted quickly. He just waved his hand decisively after half a minute: "No matter what kind of force it is, since it is advancing with such a huge formation, it must have bad intentions! Order the fleet to enter a state of emergency immediately, and use all your strength Get ready for air defense!"

"Hi!"

Fukuro was busy and hurried to make arrangements, but now there were too many things at hand. On the four battleships sailing at a speed of 25 knots, the anti-aircraft turrets, large and small but seriously in short supply, turned around one after another, and the escorting light and heavy cruisers also Trying to raise the anti-air force, I looked towards the east in fear, hoping in my heart that it would be better to come to the US military to watch the excitement, and it must not be the Chinese Air Force fighter plane.Otherwise, they will vomit blood up and down!

Yoshida Zengo did not guess that it was a Chinese fighter plane at first, because it was reported from the front that the fighter planes on the two aircraft carriers that were being attacked had already taken off, and they were mixed with the first batch of bombing fleets, so there was no time to separate themselves.

And this place is far away from the mainland of China, far beyond the range of fighter jets.It is also difficult for fighter jets to take off from Hawaii in the United States. Only aircraft carrier-based aircraft can appear in this airspace.Two aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy are in the encirclement, and two are still anchored in the South China Sea.Where do they find landing platforms?

too weird!The origin is weird, the painting is weird, the model... Yoshida Zengo suddenly remembered that the investigation report did not specify the model!Damn it, these guys are always missing things!

This kind of situation has happened more than once. The reconnaissance plane sends a telegram to report the situation from a high altitude. If there are too many, it is easy to miss the transmission or miss the decoding, which leads to repeated confirmation. Similar bad situations have not been solved well. Compared with the level of ground reconnaissance.Bad nose, is this a disgrace to the Navy?

But now, Yoshida Zengo doesn't care about entanglement at all, because it is less than 10 kilometers, and it takes [-] minutes for a high-speed fighter.It won't be long before the other party is about to reveal his true body. At that time, whether it's a friend or an enemy, it's impossible to tell at a glance!

The air defense alarm echoed on the sea, and the entire Japanese army of the second team was tense up and down.Although they are still superstitious about giant ship cannons, they also know that the threat of high-speed bombers in today's world is quite great!With their existing anti-aircraft artillery fire, it is not so difficult to stop hundreds of aircraft groups!

"Boom!" An explosion sounded from a distance, rolling against the sea surface, as if a storm was about to come, but the officers in the bridge command room received a frightening report---"Kaga" It's hopeless!The torpedo attack on the Chinese battleship failed!At least seven warships were destroyed, and the "Akagi" was seriously injured!Commander Yamamoto, escape in embarrassment!

Yoshida Zengo and Fukuru Shigeru looked at each other, and then looked at the room full of assistant officials, all of them were expressionless. Such a huge loss happened in just ten minutes. What is going on?Even the Imperial Navy's "Nine-three acid torpedoes" as a magic weapon can't deal with the opponent, so what kind of monsters did they face!

No time to think!Because at this moment, in the distant sky, a silver war eagle roared over!

The familiar aerodynamic shape, at first glance, is the most advanced cutting-edge fighter in China at present. Don't look at the blue five-element painting at all. Sweeping past, the remaining two larger formations dived fiercely towards the low altitude, passed the slow anti-aircraft firepower of the outer escort ships without stopping, and rushed directly towards the "Canglong" and "Flying Dragon" Two aircraft carriers!

Zengo Yoshida understood the opponent's intention in an instant, grabbed the brass pipe and shouted: "They are going to bomb the aircraft carrier, stop it with all your strength immediately! Block it!"

There is no need for him to yell. The large and small anti-aircraft artillery on the waiting fleet has already started to roar. The problem is that the distance between the fleet is a bit far to ensure safety. 10 minutes, it is far from enough for them to get together. The scattered escort ships The air-to-air firepower is relatively poor, and I haven't seen a few blocking results. I just watched two large silver flashes come close!

The configuration of the two aircraft carriers is basically the same, both are 6 double-mounted 40mm anti-aircraft guns with a diameter of 127 times, 5 double-mounted 25mm anti-aircraft guns, and 7 triple-mounted 3mm anti-aircraft guns. Such a density, in the Japanese Navy It seems quite remarkable, but what they are facing is the air force tempered by their own abnormal anti-aircraft artillery fire!The gap in anti-aircraft firepower between the warships of China and Japan is more than three to five times!

The sluggish 127mm anti-aircraft guns and the 25mm anti-aircraft guns that need to be reloaded after two shots are basically not accurate, and the number is insufficient. The sparse anti-aircraft shots are slightly vibrated twice, and those painful parallel 25mm guns The anti-aircraft gun immediately trembled like a convulsion, and the shells fired "Keng Keng Keng Keng" couldn't find the center of gravity at all, and the spread was outrageous!

In this way, the anti-aircraft turret with almost no cover needs at least four or five people to serve, one for observation and command, two for shooting the gun, and the other holding the magazine nervously waiting to rush up to replace it. On a hot day, all of them are shirtless and sweaty , My whole body tensed up before firing, a magazine had just been fired, and the trajectory of the ballistic was as rough as the waves in the sky, but those big guys who swooped faster than the fighter planes they had seen had already covered their ears with lightning speed. The momentum rushed to the front, and under the belly of the aircraft, groups of heavy bombs "hula la" were scattered!

At least thirty F-25 bombers took care of an aircraft carrier, completely ignoring the feelings of other warships, especially the four battleships that thought they would be the core of the attack, and rushed to drop more than 100 bombs along the course of the two aircraft carriers. Air bombs!Each small one weighs 100 kilograms, and the big one weighs [-] kilograms!

A bomb with a big head, a small butt, and a stable tail hangs a strange cry of "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... , Just as the fighter plane flew over the deck of the aircraft carrier, earth-shattering explosions followed one after another!

Aerial bombs charge as little as a quarter of the total weight, and as many as half!Especially in the 500 kg aerial bombs used to deal with heavy decks, the charge is at least 200 kg, and the pointed head is specially strengthened with armor-piercing structure. Once fired, a hole the size of a basketball court can be blasted out!

This group of dive bombers came too fast, too concentrated, and too ferocious. In the blink of an eye, dense aerial bombs exploded violently at the front, back, left, and right sides of the two aircraft carriers, and at least a dozen of them hit the target accurately. "Feilong aircraft carrier "From the beginning to the end, three large holes with a diameter of 30 meters were blown out. The most destructive aerial bomb even penetrated through the hole blown out by the [-]-kilogram aerial bomb in front, and went straight to the bottom layer to explode, which was quite powerful. Because of a torpedo, the battleship was completely crippled on the spot, causing two or three hundred casualties!

The flight deck of the "Cangryu" was almost completely torn off. The bridge was smashed in from the root and an aerial bomb was completely lifted off. The more than 100 officers on it, including the captain Kohei Teraoka, were all smashed on the spot, dead scum None left!

The swarms of bombers didn't even have the interest to look back. After dropping the bombs, they quickly climbed up without hesitation, and chased the group in front of them straight to the air battle stage where the two sides were stuck together!

Yoshida Zengo covered his head and his eyes were bloodshot. He glanced at the two aircraft carriers that were basically finished. His heart was filled with chills. He already knew what the other party wanted to do!First kill all the aircraft carriers, scrap the floating platforms of the entire Japanese navy, and then rely on the speed advantage to fight with the battleships. From here to the Japanese mainland, there are more than a thousand nautical miles, and air support can't fly at all. They have to face the harassment and pursuit of two or three hundred fighter planes... What a vicious plot!

"Commander Yamamoto's plan has completely failed!" Yoshida Zengo was full of vicissitudes. He thought that the younger brother could take over his banner and become the best commander of the Japanese Navy, but he didn't expect to play the leading role for the first time. After causing such a big trouble, who else can trust her in the future?

No!Don't be discouraged!

Yoshida Zengo rubbed his face vigorously, gritted his teeth and ordered: "All reconnaissance planes immediately search in two directions to the southeast, and we must find the hidden aircraft carrier and other warships in China!"

Fu Liufan's head was a little confused, thinking that the commander's head was also broken from anger, and hurriedly asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, how can there be a China aircraft carrier in that direction?"

Yoshida Zengo knocked over the water glass on the table with one fist, and shouted anxiously: "Then where do you think those nasty fighter planes come from?! There is a serious problem with our intelligence work. There are only four aircraft carriers, and they have more! Now, they are approaching us! Find them as quickly as possible, and kill them at all costs!"

How much can happen in one night?It is enough for a high-speed fleet to sail 300 nautical miles without being easily discovered. This early morning is of great benefit to the Japanese navy, but in the dark, there are terrible enemies hidden!

As if to meet the judgment of Commander Yoshida, the high-altitude reconnaissance plane found the hidden enemy ships without much effort, but what appeared in front of them were not just two aircraft carriers, but a group of completely unexpected and terrifying guys! (to be continued)rq
