Chapter 72 A Squadron

Waves of missiles and overwhelming "paving stone" TV-guided bombs have pushed the Japanese naval fleet into a dangerous situation. If the losses of Ganjiang-class destroyers and light cruisers can still be withstood the losses of the Japanese naval fleet, then the losses of the battleships and aircraft carriers are losses that the Japanese navy cannot bear.

"Sir, two more simple aircraft carriers were hit by US missiles and sunk. The Flying Dragon was shot in a 50,000-ton aircraft carrier, and the Tenglong..."

Faced with the US Navy's offensive like a tide, Tadakaichi Nagamo's originally pale face turned pale. Not only is one battleship sunk, but two 50,000-ton aircraft carriers, Qianlong and Ryugao, also sank.

All of these are the result of continuous harassment tactics used by Rear William Frederick Halsey. Now the Japanese Navy First Fleet, which has huge flaws in the air defense circle, has to fall into a hard battle.

It is impossible for Nagashi Yuntaka to shrink the defense circle and allocate the Ganjiang-class air defense destroyers near important ships to complete the key defense formation. However, when these warships with raging fire appeared, he himself could not help but be shocked by the tragic situation.

The turret of the anti-aircraft gun and the side of the ship had long been blown away by aviation bombs, and even the command tower had long become some strange steel ruins. Many crew members who had lost their battle positions were holding light machine guns and holding rifles in their hands.

Although the entire air defense warship was still working hard to fight against the air, discerning people had already seen that they were almost at the end of their lives. Cold sweat flowed down Natsumatsu's pale short hair, and almost everyone heard an unexpected word.

"Call out to the Batavian fleet, if we fail, then they can't stand it alone!"

The Batavian fleet's record today has already surprised Tadaichi Nagamoto. In particular, the battle of the Batavian fleet's naval aviation at night has achieved great results. This has made the commanders of the Japanese Naval Air Force confused. They do not believe that the Batavian Naval Air Force, which had mediocre achievements in the day, can actually achieve such a record at night.

Although the pilots and leaders of the Japanese Navy Air Force who are still fighting hard with US fighters, bombers, rotor attack aircraft, as well as "silk-type missiles" and many models of "paving stone" TV-guided bombs in the sky, they have not been able to recall this incident well, but as far as Tadaichi Nakumo now has such an air force, it will definitely save the Japanese Navy fleet from danger.

"Sir..."

The Japanese Navy and Army have always had a strong leading position in the South Asian military alliance. Whether it is the capture of British and French colonies in South Asia or the fight against the United States in the Pacific, the Japanese Navy and Army are responsible for the main attack tasks and bear the trust of all countries.

But today's danger is even asking for help from the Batavian fleet, which is a scene that the Japanese army's soldiers do not want to see. At least asking for help from the naval aviation forces in Batavian was a deep shame in their view.

Looking at the adjutant's angry look, Tadaichi Nagashi nodded firmly, but his eyes were filled with a strange and mere feeling. The adjutant widened his eyes suspiciously and looked at his commander. After he was convinced that he had not understood what he meant, he shouted to the communications officer beside him with grief and anger.

"Ceer to the Batavian fleet and tell all the fighter pilots, pilots and everyone on the battleships. The Batavian Naval Air Force will come to rescue us immediately and ask them to persevere..."

"Sir..."

This time, the communication adjutant was shouting out. He even cried in his voice. His hands tightly grasped the "dagger" on his waist. This was the reform of the Japanese army in this war. The "Chengren Dagger" replaced the former command knife.

"Baga..."

This time, when Nao Yunzhong didn't need to speak, the adjutant waved his arm and slapped twice on the communications officer's face. The communications officer habitually regained his position in the attention after being slapped, and at the same time replied "Hi" loudly!

"The survival of the First Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy is here. Are you still taking into account your personal honor and disgrace?"

With an angry shout, looking at the serious expression on his superior's face, the communications officer seemed to understand something. He no longer insisted on his point of view, but instead grabbed the phone on the bridge and opened all the channels.

"Please continue to fight hard. We have sent a request for rescue to the Batavian fleet, and their rescue will be immediately..."

Before his voice had fallen, there were more than a dozen flashes of thunders in the sky at the same time, and more than a dozen huge balls of fire lighted up in the air. It was like a sign of a storm on the sea, which made people shocked.

At this time, a communication message quickly came to the communication officer's ears, and he widened his eyes in surprise when he listened to the news.

"What, what news did you hear...!"

Nagamo Tadaichi's adjutant thought it was bad news, so he chased after him. Now all the officers of the Japanese Navy First Fleet have long been impatient with the bad news. Since Admiral William Frederick Halsey began his current tactics, enough anger has accumulated in the hearts of the Japanese Navy officers.

"A squadron...my great god, just now a squadron's Kanfeng multi-purpose bomber ran out of their rockets and was unable to attack the US air fleet anymore. According to the news I just heard, the crew of less than 30 of the 32 crews of a squadron sent a survival signal..."

"A squadron crew..."

Tadichi Nagamoto was silent for such a report. He just kept muttering this sentence in his heart, filled with guilt for these soldiers. His eyes could be seen from afar through the bridge, looking at the light that kept shining in the sky, and listening to the adjutant shouting loudly on the other side.

"Don't bump...no activation..."

No one noticed at this time, his lips quietly twitched.

"The Great Japanese Empire has a future after all...The Great Japanese Empire...!"

This is a heart-wrenching statement. I believe the Satan Eagle would not like to hear such words. But when the crew of the Japanese military aircraft drove their rocket-fired bombers to launch an impact on the US Navy's air fleet, it means that something has been eliminated and resurrected from the Japanese army and the above of the Japanese!

At this time, in the airspace near the US Navy's air fleet, it was like the god of death was flying constantly, filled with blood and fire. Japanese bombers that emerged from all angles rushed up desperately. These kamikaze multi-purpose bombers often crashed into them after firing the weapons on their fighter planes and did not achieve the attack goal.

Even more Japanese fighter jets simply hit the ground regardless of their lives. These crew members often eject before the impact. Although they faced damage from the explosion of airborne weapons and the wreckage of the fighter jet, many crew members still successfully escaped.

"These bastards are using their fighter jets as missiles, and we can't be beaten like this..."

The combat adjutant on the closely protected command ship of the Cangmang was shouting in her sharp voice, trying to attract the attention of Rear Admiral William Frederick Halsey, who was frowning and thinking in such a situation.

She couldn't understand what happened to the Japanese Navy Air Force, which was not so crazy when attacking just a few minutes ago. The instantaneous collision and attack caused the Americans to lose two rotorcraft carriers filled with people and ammunition.

What puzzled her was that his boss seemed to turn a blind eye to these losses.

"How are the losses of the Japanese Navy? I just want the losses of their heavy warships!"

"Sir, according to the statistics we just received, the Japanese Navy lost one battleship, three medium-sized aircraft carriers, and small aircraft carriers..."

The correspondence adjutant who had answered the answer was a little proud when he spoke. But when her report was not completed, she was interrupted by the report of the adjutant in the war situation.

"Sir, the Batavian fleet has sent a large number of fighter jets, and there are also clusters of small ships on the sea, which are running towards Japan to take charge of the fleet. But the target of the aircraft fleet is us...!"

This news made Rear Admiral William Frederick Halsey worry. For some reason, Batavia had only 200 fighter jets, which seemed to be less different from Feidi, which made him very worried.

As for the Batavian fleet, the losses suffered by the US fighter jets heading to attack were quite serious. Especially those similar warships that looked larger than those used by the Japanese and Ganjiang-class air defense ships, had very strong air defense capabilities.

"If these warships join the Japanese naval fleet, they will provide them with enough breathing time, or if those fighters attack us..."

For some reason, when talking about the air force of the Batavian Navy, he was more worried, and even he had made a secret decision.
