Chapter 1512 Bombers vs. Battleships
Zhang Tuohai recruited 9 million troops and distributed them to various battlefields.
Then order each battlefield to take the initiative to attack and achieve results.
Otherwise, you are a sinner of the empire.
Japanese troops abroad received the order and began to take action.
The fastest move is in the direction of Australia.
Because although Australia has a vast land, there are relatively few people, and most of the cities are concentrated in the coastal areas. The vast inland areas are deserts and grasslands, with almost no people.
This gave Japan an opportunity.
The warships led the army all the way south. When they encountered a city, they bombarded it, and then the infantry landed and mopped up the rear.
Soon, they captured a large area of control in Australia.
The army here has been at peace for a long time and has no combat effectiveness at all.
Because the Flying Fortress is back loaded with bombs.
They came back with a vengeance.
The Americans have also discovered the weaknesses of the Japanese and have been studying how to break the situation.
The combined fleet retreated in disgrace, and the three million soldiers of the Eastward March Corps who remained on the shore were dumbfounded.
However, facing the powerful howitzers and tanks of the American army was no different than scratching an itch. They could only build positions on the beach under the cover of naval guns.
Because this bomber formation formed a dense formation, the Zero fighters did not dare to rush in, otherwise, they would be hit and killed by the dense fighter planes.
Marshal Mai who fled here is even more of an empty-headed commander and doesn't have much strength under his command.
Compared with the Southern Army's successive battles and victories, the Westward Army was much slower.
The Japanese lookout was so frightened when he saw so many planes that he almost fell off the observation deck.
So many fighter planes formed a dense formation in the air, almost blocking the sky over the battlefield.
Falling onto the turret can directly blow the turret away.
When they rushed to the bomber formation, they were stunned.
Then, they figured out a way and spent three months suppressing more than 10,000 bombers.
It is the crushing of industrial strength.
This is a real steel storm.
When Nagyun saw the densely packed fighter planes, he felt numb and quickly sent the fighters into the air to protect the fleet.
The American strategy is very simple, which is to drown the combined fleet with massive bombs.
Something is different now. In order to attack the combined fleet, the Americans used 10,000 heavy bombers.
But Zhang Tuohai stopped him.
The most manpower and equipment are added here.
The Zero fighter is famous for its thin skin and large stuffing. In order to reduce the weight of the aircraft, the aluminum alloy steel frame is used under the skin, and the aircraft body even uses a hollow frame. This results in the aircraft's defense power being zero.
.
Heavy bombers, on the other hand, deliver bombs over an area and can attack fixed targets, but are much less effective against such moving targets.
Forced by the military front, they had no choice but to take their people and run inland to hide.
No matter which direction they attack from, they will face thousands of machine gun fires.
They wanted to fight, but there were more machine guns on the flying fortress than on the fighter jets.
Facing the rain of shells in the sky, no matter how fast the ship evades, it cannot avoid all the bombs. It can only pray that it will not be hit by too many bombs.
The bomber fighter formation also opened its magazine, and iron bombs poured out one after another.
At least the aircraft carrier must be repaired.
Massive bombs exploded in the battle waters.
Hundreds of Zero fighters quickly took off to prepare for the enemy.
Among the three armies, the one that suffered the most was the East Marching Corps.
But those are normal situations.
The main reason for this is that the ship's evasive action is very fast and must be attacked at close range by dive bombers or torpedo planes.
The cruiser can probably hold two four-shot bombs, but any more will sink.
Most of the bombs fell into the sea, causing waves.
They clamored to conquer Imphal even if they eat grass.
Soon, they won't have to sigh anymore.
There are almost no heavy bombers.
Only battleships with rough skin and thick flesh can resist for a while.
Make the other person shed tears of gratitude.
However, some bombs still fell on the ship.
After many small destroyers were hit by bombs, the hulls were directly blown through. A large amount of seawater poured in, and the ships sank directly without the ability to support them twice.
In their view, fighter jets can easily deal with bombers.
In order to achieve the attack effect, the United States uses heavy bombs of 500 kilograms, which can directly blow through the deck when they fall on it.
Not only was the other party absolved of the crime, but he was promoted to a higher level and asked to continue leading the westward marching army.
For this kind of person, the Minister of War originally wanted to bring him back and send him to a military court for trial.
At this time, the fighter group had already flown above the combined fleet.
If you leave, what will we do?
Without the support of fleet artillery, what support would they have?
There were sighs and groans everywhere in the camp.
Anti-aircraft fire from numerous ships of the Combined Fleet opened fire.
Faced with such a crushing level of battle, the combined fleet had nothing to do.
The alarm was quickly sounded.
But at this time, there were no roads in the rainforest, and supplies could not be transported there. It was impossible to carry much with just two legs. The commander of the westward marching army was also a fool.
Completely taken care of in all directions.
As long as you are hit by two bullets, you will lose your ability to fight.
Because they did not need to fly a long distance, these 10,000 aircraft were all fully equipped, full of machine guns and full of bombs, and formed a dense formation to fly towards the Japanese army.
Moreover, there is no fighter escort, so isn’t this just delivering food?
The fighter group rushed toward the bomber formation aggressively.
Boom, boom, boom.
Then, half of the entire army starved to death, and finally retreated to Southeast Asia in despair.
In the case of an aircraft carrier, as soon as a shot hits the deck, it loses its combat effectiveness and needs to return to port immediately for repairs, making it impossible to fight.
Normally, dive bombers or torpedo planes are used to deal with ships.
Even rare submachine guns and mortars have been added here.
The Zero fighters circled around the bomber group twice, but failed to find an opportunity to attack. Instead, they lost more than a hundred aircraft and suffered heavy losses.
These 10,000 bombers are all heavy-duty aerial fortresses, with a total of six machine gun positions at the front, rear, top and bottom. They are heavily guarded and are truly aerial fortresses.
Yamamoto could not bear the fate of the entire Combined Fleet being annihilated, and immediately ordered the Combined Fleet to evacuate and return to Pearl Harbor to rest.
Then, all the planes dropped bombs together, directly covering the entire battlefield.
Reports of military successes in the South spread frequently, and we hope that the country will send immigrants to occupy this place as soon as possible.
Because if you want to march to India, you have to cross the rainforest.
He finally found such an anti-Japanese hero, how could he let him go?
In order to achieve the effect, when the US military selected pilots, they specifically selected people from the West Coast as pilots.
They have an unforgettable hatred against the Japanese army.
Naturally there will be no mercy.
This time there was no threat from fighter jets, and the air fortress even directly lowered its altitude and conducted intensive bombing at a height of one thousand meters above the ground.
