Just as Tsukahara 243 set the focus of attack on the aircraft carriers of the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet, Chen Shichang also set the nine aircraft carriers of the Wuwei aircraft carrier fleet as key attack targets. Due to technical limitations, Tsukahara 243 could only rely on For special tactics forces, Chen Shichang has more choices. Poseidon missiles are of course the first choice. The Japanese army simply does not have matching countervailing weapons. If missiles are not good, there are torpedoes and submarine-launched torpedoes. This technology has not been mastered by the Japanese army. If torpedoes are not available, If it still doesn't work, it doesn't matter. There are also bombers. Originally, bombers were Chen Shichang's first choice. After all, the Chinese sturgeon is faster than the Song-class submarine. However, Tsukahara 243 chose to use the 50 special attack aircraft. The main force of the troops is used to sneak attack the aircraft carrier cluster of the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet. The strength of the naval aviation forces of the two sides is not on the same level. If Tsukahara 243 concentrates the naval aviation forces, he will still be able to compete with the naval aviation forces of the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet. Capital, now, he can't even preserve the strength of the HNA force.
When they were fighting each other, the Japanese army had special attack tactics at their side and could still survive. But now, with the fifty special attack planes being used up, the air battle has turned into a one-sided massacre. The speed gap of zero battle is almost zero. The eagle was really too far away, so much so that Zero War deliberately launched a special attack tactic, but because it couldn't catch up with the speed of the golden eagle, not only did it miss the target, but it also exposed itself to a larger gap.
The situation of the battle between the mobile fleet and the missile boat force is better, but it is still far away from Tsukahara 243's "consuming as many Chinese missiles as possible". Tsukahara 243 knows that regardless of the situation now The mobile fleet takes the initiative, suppressing the missile speedboat force of the Xuebing Army. However, as the mobile fleet gets closer to the main force of the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet, the chance of survival of the mobile fleet will become smaller and smaller.
Too many battle cases have proved that in modern naval warfare, the tactics of giant ships and artillery have been seriously outdated. When the Chinese naval forces wipe out our own naval forces, the mobile fleet will die. Tsukahara 243 thought of it. The task of luring the enemy has been completed. The most important thing he should do now is to preserve the strength of the fleet to the greatest extent. He issued a retreat order to the mobile fleet and asked them to join the main fleet as quickly as possible. At the same time, he began to reorganize the fleet and prepare Use intensive defense to deal with the upcoming crazy counterattack of the Chinese. "The crazier the counterattack of the Chinese, the greater the victory achieved by Akiyama Heroes. Hey, if all five aircraft carriers are destroyed, it doesn't matter if we bury two of them." . "After Tsukahara 243 made arrangements, he said to the adjutant Xiang Yuji and others around him,
Tsukahara 243 had high hopes for Akiyama. Unless he saw it with his own eyes, he would never believe that the crazy flow of special attack tactics composed of one hundred and fifty special attack aircraft, actually even connected a ship of the Xuebing Army. None of the aircraft carriers were sunk,
The air battle that took place within Tsukahara's field of vision was coming to an end. In the end, only about 75 Japanese fighter planes escaped. Among these 75 fighter planes, three of them fell to the deck dragging thick smoke. , This made Tsukahara 243's face become extremely ugly for a time. Yes, he knew beforehand that there was no comparison between his naval aviation force and the military academy. However, he never thought that the gap would be so huge. , Originally, the quality and bravery of soldiers were what he was proud of, just like two children competing for victory. Although the children of other families are tall, beautiful and good at learning, their own children are not without their advantages, such as more Be obedient, such as being honest. This metaphor may not be appropriate. After all, China and Japan are now the enemies of the century, and the fate of both sides is destined to be eternal. But, that's what it means. The quality of soldiers and their bravery, these are what Tsukahara can do The things I was proud of, after this close air battle, were wiped out one by one like soap bubbles exposed to the sun. At the end of the air battle, the orderly retreat requested by Tsukahara had become It became a rout. One after another Zero Fighter and other Japanese aircraft rushed into the air defense network constructed by the fleet's air defense firepower as if in a competition. They completely lost the courage to face the Golden Eagle head-on. As a result, the Golden Eagle was able to easily The one fell behind, one tug after another, and another tug after another.
In the captain's room of the Huangdi aircraft carrier, Chen Shichang received a report from Wang Hai and learned that the Japanese naval aviation force had been completely defeated. He spoke to Xu Kai and confirmed the distance between Xu Kai's troops and the Wuwei aircraft carrier fleet, and then asked Wang Hai to let the front-line troops The HNA troops carried out harassing attacks on the Japanese troops to prevent the Japanese troops from easily escaping: "Xu Kai and the others will arrive at the battlefield in 40 minutes, so HNA's brothers must hold back the Japanese." Because it had control of the air, the Huangdi aircraft carrier The Fleet Headquarters was able to keep track of the new trends of the Japanese army through the front-line naval aviation forces. When Chen Shichang heard that Tsukahara had adopted hedgehog defense tactics and gathered all warships together to defend against air attacks by the naval aviation forces on the front line, he smiled and said to Jin: " Commander Jin, you must have dealt with Tsukahara 243. You always thought that Tsukahara was a famous general, but now it seems that he is just a mediocre general."
When new battle reports were sent back from the front line, the staff immediately made adjustments on the sea view sand table. With the help of the sea view sand table, the Japanese army's hedgehog defense array was clearly visible. This formation is indeed very targeted for air defense. The Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet This was done before, but if faced with a submarine force, this formation would actually actively increase the hit rate of enemy torpedoes.
The location of Xu Kai's submarine force has been marked on the seascape sand table. Jin also understood at this time that this submarine formation was Chen Shichang's trump card against the Wuwei aircraft carrier fleet.
The Americans have successfully introduced submarine-launched torpedoes and related technologies into the country through interest exchanges, but they have not paid enough attention to them. With the Atlantic Fleet's experience in successfully cracking the German wolf pack tactics, the Americans have paid enough attention to submarine tactics, but at the same time they have not paid enough attention to them. He arbitrarily believes that the role of the submarine force is limited, so he does not develop it as a main ship type. Jin is a relatively stubborn person. Once he believes in a certain idea, he will stick to it. Previously, he wondered why the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet did not carry The torpedo machine now understood the reason. Although he understood the reason, he was not prepared to follow it blindly. He said seriously: "Commander Chen, I think we should not be careless. As a veteran navy, I don't think the Japanese He lacks knowledge of anti-submarine tactics, Tsukahara, I’m not afraid of your ridicule. I fought him three times and lost three times. This man still has certain abilities."
Chen Shichang understood Jin's personality. He smiled and said nothing more.
"Then let the facts speak for themselves, Xu Kai, don't let me down." He thought in his heart, looking ahead, feeling much more relaxed.
As long as the threat of the Wuwei aircraft carrier fleet is resolved, there will be no doubt about the Third Battle of Guadalcanal. Of course, if it can severely damage or even the Wuwei aircraft carrier fleet, that would be the best. In this case, the next leapfrog tactic will be more insurance,
