Chapter 565 Giant Ship Cannon

In Tokyo, three aircraft carriers of the raiding fleet were severely damaged, and the battle report came back that they had to withdraw from the battle. Yamamoto Isoroku seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He didn't expect that the Xuebing Army would hide this killer move. , torpedo speedboats, and other new types of ships, Yamamoto no longer has the mind to take care of these. He is thinking more about what to do next. The three aircraft carriers, let alone serious damage, were all sunk, and it didn't matter. , After all, the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet has a total of ten aircraft carriers. However, because Nagumo Chuichi gave all the fifty special attack aircraft to the raid fleet, and the fifty special attack aircraft are the only ones that can break through the blockade of the white-finned dolphins and golden eagles to attack the school. Pacific Fleet aircraft carrier, this means that if this battle continues, the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet will be completely passive during the air battle, and will only be able to passively defend and cannot prevent effective attacks. The theory of aircraft carrier victory is proposed by Yamamoto , he was too aware of the importance of battlefield air supremacy to naval battles. Without immediate battlefield air supremacy, how could this battle be fought? As Nagumo Chuichi reported, with naval guns, Yamamoto could not imagine it and ordered Nagumo to give up this battle. Well, when the air superiority is lost and the speed of the ship is much slower than the speed of the fighter plane, what is the difference between that and giving up resistance? Yamamoto's fists clenched and unclenched, and he was unable to make a decision.

Chen Shichang, Degu and others did not have high hopes for the missile boat force. However, they were the first to open up the situation. The Fifty Special Attack Aircraft was once what Chen Shichang was most worried about. He even thought that if he lost this battle, he would definitely lose to On the Fifty Special Attack aircraft, in this case, nearly two hundred Fifty Special Attack aircraft withdrew from the war, which was a great encouragement to him. After receiving the report from Qi Minghao, he responded loudly and exaggeratedly: "Okay In this case, I will ask for credit from the junior commander for you." After receiving Xu Kai's report, he repeatedly expressed comfort: "Old Xu, although your unit suffered heavy losses, its contribution to the defeat of the enemy's raid fleet is obvious to all. If this battle is Victory, your department's Party Committee has made the first contribution." Immediately, he ordered the battle report to be communicated to all ships, and called the officers and soldiers of each ship, calling on them to learn from the submarine force and missile boat force, and said that Xu and Qi had made a good start for the fleet. , Next, it is time for their performance, "Brothers, the Japanese mocked our Pacific Fleet as the super toy of the little commander. Today we will let them see the power of this super toy. Brothers, sink the Yamato, Capture Nagumo Chuichi alive."

Yamato aircraft carrier, Nagumo Chuichi is different from Yamamoto. Although he also accepts the theory of aircraft carrier victory, he still has a certain superstition on the tactics of giant ships and artillery. When the battle report came back that the raid fleet was attacked and failed, he was certainly surprised by it. But he did not lose his fighting spirit because of this, "Such an opponent is interesting. It can be seen that the Chinese people have devoted their efforts to the Pacific Fleet. It is so good, let us smash their efforts to pieces and let them know that the ocean The fleet is not something that just anyone or any country can play with." "Gentlemen, when my senior Dongxiang completely annihilated the Russian Baltic Fleet in the Tsushima Strait, what were the Chinese doing? The Chinese did not have warships exceeding 10,000 tons at that time. Well, haha, I'm sure that the Chinese people must be ecstatic now. It doesn't matter if we defeat them at this time, we can have the opportunity to appreciate the expressions of the Chinese people who are happy at first and then sad. Gentlemen, I am looking forward to Ouyang Yun hearing about the Pacific Fleet. After hearing the news that the entire army was wiped out, she burst into tears..."

The top commanders of the two opposing fleets used their own methods to cheer up their officers and soldiers. No matter how the officers and soldiers on both sides reacted after hearing this, as the main forces of the two fleets got closer and closer to each other, the battle in the air began to become intense. , and the winner was gradually determined. The Pacific Fleet had nine aircraft carriers, and all of them were fleet carriers. In addition to the three ships of the raid fleet, the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet still had seven ships. Although the Yamato belonged to the Big Mac class, There is one aircraft carrier among the other six, so overall, in terms of the total tonnage of the aircraft carrier, the Pacific Fleet is better than the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet by 20,000 tons, and the total tonnage of the aircraft carrier is superior. However, because whether it is the golden eagle or the white-finned dolphin The Tiger Shark and the Chinese Sturgeon are both larger than the Zero War, New Type 99 and Type Zero, and the New Type 98. Therefore, the number of fighters carried by the aircraft carriers of both sides is actually more than that of the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet. The number is superior, but from the beginning to the present, the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet has been at a disadvantage in the air combat situation. The competition between the naval forces of the two sides is a bit tit-for-tat. At the beginning, all those dispatched were pure fighters. Want to master air superiority; then some fighter jets protected a number of bombers, thinking about whether they could first break through the blockade of the opponent's naval aviation force and break into the sky above the enemy's fleet; then, some pure bomber clusters without fighter escort also appeared, and these clusters wandered around the battlefield The surrounding people are like mosquitoes surrounding people in summer, waiting for the opportunity to bite them. As the fighter jets rush out of the battle group to attack them, they will scatter like flies to avoid Caught by a fighter jet…

Affected by the air battle, mainly because they were afraid of being visited by the enemy's bomber cluster, the formations of both sides were no longer as orderly as they were at first. The aircraft carrier slowly retracted back to the middle of the fleet, and small ships such as destroyers and frigates began to actively block it. The aircraft carrier is most likely to be attacked by torpedoes, and the distance between the ships is getting closer and closer.

Both Chen Shichang and Nagumo Chuichi chose to do this. On the one hand, they had the purpose of sacrificing small ships to protect the aircraft carrier, and on the other hand, they wanted to concentrate air defense firepower to deal with the possible intrusion of enemy bombers.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and naval guns began to appear on the stage. Amidst the dull sound of gunfire and the continuous violent explosions, slowly, the formation of the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet changed again, stemming from Nagumo Chuichi's strong and powerful force. Due to the ship-cannon complex, when Yamamoto Isoroku allocated battleships, he gave two more Yamato aircraft carrier fleets on the basis of equal division among the three fleets. In this way, the command had as many as five battleships and five battleships. , Nagumo organized them into the First Battleship Squadron and the Second Battleship Squadron respectively. When the fifty special attack aircraft lost hope and he had to put his hope in the "giant ship and artillery tactics", these two battleship units were It became the most important chess piece in his hand. Under his personal command, the five battleships stood out from the main battleship group without leaving a trace. They suddenly accelerated and turned collectively, and then formed an arc in front of the fleet.

Bian Jingdao paid attention to this change in the Japanese fleet. When the five Japanese battleships began to rush forward, he reported it to Chen Shichang. Chen Shichang ignored it at first, but couldn't stand Degu repeatedly talking about the threat of the battleships. , he then ordered Wang Hai to organize bomber units to pay special attention to these five battleships while maintaining the existing air combat situation.

Wang Hai had reserve troops on fighter jets, bombers and torpedo planes. He kept these reserve troops to deal with special situations. After receiving this order from Chen Shichang, he immediately ordered the Hanwu to be on standby.

The bomber group took off and attacked five Japanese battleships.
