Chapter 358 Fletcher-class destroyer

So the anti-aircraft guns and machine guns of the Sino-US coalition forces bombed into the air, making black clouds everywhere in the sky, and the entire sky seemed to be covered by smoke from the shells.

Among these smoke, there are Japanese fighter jets that were hit and dropped with black smoke and fire. Zhang Chi believes that if the commander of the Japanese Joint Fleet, Toyota, would definitely choose to give up this attack if he saw this scene... Because the casualties were too heavy, any blow to the Seventh Detachment of China and the United States was not enough to exchange for such casualties.

So, until now, the Japanese army has actually been defeated. They are using Japan's last little wealth to exchange for a victory that has no impact on the situation... So, what can the Japanese army win this war?

However, the Japanese's madness lies in their stubbornness that they don't cry without seeing the coffin... Even the direct commander of this attack, Jisaburo Ozawa, was also the one who was red in the Mariana Naval Battle. Later, there were only more than one hundred fighter jets left, but they still shouted to use these more than one hundred fighter jets to launch the final attack again. In the end, Toyota's deputy commander Ozawa Shisaburo Ozawa stopped this completely meaningless attack.

So the Japanese fighter jets continued to dive towards the Chinese and American fleets from all directions, followed by a series of bullets and bombs falling from the sky... But these bullets and bombs were more thunder and small raindrops, and they were basically fired randomly. Of course, this was because the Japanese pilots were not trained inadequately, but in fact, the more important reason was that the Japanese army was frightened by the dense artillery shells in the air and the shots of friend planes around them one by one, so they hurriedly dropped the bombs or fired randomly before flying away.

Of course, some of them were hit. The flight deck of the Pinghai was hit by a bomb, but fortunately, the deck of the Pinghai was thick enough, and the bomb did not cause any major damage except for a shock and a small pit on the deck.

This should be due to the aviation force... You should know that the Japanese army targeted the "Pinghai" aircraft carrier, and the second wave of the Japanese army was mainly bombers and torpedoes. If the Chinese and American aviation forces had not disrupted the Japanese deployment in the air and annihilated a large number of Japanese torpedoes and bombers, I was afraid that the "Pinghai" would have been hit by several bombs or several torpedoes sank into the seabed at this time.

Six torpedo aircraft lowered their altitude and slowed down their speed and flew towards the "Pinghai". They obviously wanted to drop torpedoes indiscriminately and kill the "Pinghai" thorn in their eyes. The two US Fletcher-class destroyers on both wings hurriedly aimed at them and fired a bunch of shells... This was Zhang Chi's arrangement, because in the first wave of attacks of the Japanese army, Zhang Chi saw that the Japanese army's main target was the "Pinghai".

Although Zhang Chi knew that this was a strategic mistake of the Japanese army, the "Pinghai" was actually a difficult and not very valuable aircraft carrier... Any US escort aircraft carrier has ten "Hellcat" fighter jets, which is the real threat to the Japanese army.

However, Zhang Chi judged that the Japanese army could not recognize this strategic mistake in a short time. Even if they realized this mistake, they would not be able to correct it in time due to the Japanese's stubbornness and the backwardness of the Japanese communications.

Therefore, Zhang Chi strengthened the defense of the Pinghai aircraft carrier and allocated the four Fletcher-class destroyers with the strongest air defense firepower to the four directions of the Pinghai.
