The main purpose of China's Pacific Fleet and Army Aviation long-range bomber clusters' previous sneak attacks on the U.S. and Japanese fleets was to paralyze the aircraft carrier combat capabilities of the U.S. and Japanese fleets. At the same time, it also caused the following hidden dangers to the U.S. and Japanese fleets. That is, because some ships, especially aircraft carriers, The power system was affected, which slowed down the overall speed of the U.S. and Japanese fleets. For the Chinese Pacific Fleet, because it gained a greater advantage in speed, no matter whether the U.S. and Japanese fleets took the initiative to launch an attack or fled the battlefield, as long as they found something wrong Very late, then he has the ability to strike back. Li Mei obviously knows this, so for him, when the two Chinese aircraft carrier fleets stand still and keep a vague distance from them, what he has to worry about is that these two Is a Chinese aircraft carrier fleet guarding them, so now is actually not the best opportunity to escape.
Li Mei miscalculated one thing here, that is, the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet where Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi are located alone cannot compete with the Japanese Combined Fleet alone. The Japanese Combined Fleet's aircraft carrier combat power has indeed suffered heavy losses, but don't forget What the Japanese Navy currently relies on is not the conventional naval aviation force, but the so-called special attack force. The biggest feature of the Japanese so-called Fifty Special Attack Aircraft and later the Fifty-six Special Attack Aircraft is that it has low requirements for the take-off platform, and It is small in size and low in cost. Therefore, even though the Japanese aircraft carrier suffered heavy losses in the night attack of the Chinese naval aviation force and the aviation force was almost completely lost, this only refers to the ordinary naval aviation force and its special attack troops, especially those mounted on heavy equipment. The losses of the patrolling special attack troops were minimal. Of course, because too many battle cases have proved the following, that is, the special attack tactics that the Japanese used on the Americans do not seem to be applicable to the Chinese. However, it must be pointed out that What is true is that Chinese pilots have the ability to curb the Japanese's special attack tactics. However, because the special attack aircraft themselves are a source of danger, once the Japanese use this trump card, Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi will not dare to take it lightly.
As soon as the Americans took action, Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi received the report. After receiving the relevant report, both of them were very excited. Chen Ce even had the idea of letting the two aircraft carrier fleets participate in the pursuit. Soldiers would not Not greedy for merit, even Chen Ce is not immune. However, perhaps in order to coordinate the Americans' eastward withdrawal, the Japanese combined fleet used its last trump card and sent out about ninety fifty special attack aircraft. At the same time, Under the command of Yamaguchi Bunta, Japan's few battleships began to accelerate into the battlefield, and their intention to break through the Chinese blockade in one fell swoop was obvious.
"Report, the Japanese army dispatched aviation units, probably special attack aircraft." Immediately, a scout sent the relevant information back to the headquarters. Chen Ce received the report and said to Bai Chongxi: "It seems that the little devil is ready to fight to the death. .”
The Japanese Navy, like its twin brother the Japanese Army, has the same characteristics in fighting wars. To put it simply, it is the "three axes". For example, when the Japanese Army invaded China, its three axes were aircraft, tanks, and artillery. Now Japan The three major strengths of the navy are special attack aircraft and group charges, and the third is to fight against trapped beasts in groups.
Based on the principle of strategic contempt and tactical emphasis, the Japanese special attack troops have always been the focus of Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi. From the night attack to the present, the Japanese special attack troops have not appeared. Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi were originally I was speculating on what conspiracy the Japanese side had and whether they were hiding any trump cards, but now I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qian Donkey," Bai Chongxi said. Before he could finish his words, Chen Ce picked him up with a tacit understanding: ",, I have no skills."
The two people immediately laughed, and Chen Ce turned to order the other two aircraft carrier fleets to come over for battle. After issuing this order, he said to everyone in the command center: "Brothers, cheer up. It's time to fight with Xiao. It’s time for the Japs to show off, and this time, we will make the Japs’ combined fleet a thing of the past.”
The reason why Ouyang Yun transferred two long-range aviation divisions to Kaohsiung to fight against the U.S. Pacific Fleet when the Malan War was at its most critical moment was based on deductions from the Operations Staff Department of the Supreme Command, with the purpose of annihilating the U.S. and Japanese fleets. The final result of the deduction is that if China wants to completely solve the US-Japan combined fleet once and for all, then it must provide support to the Pacific Fleet. Moreover, the support cannot be too low. At least it must ensure that the support force can hold back the US Pacific Fleet for three days. Only in five days can Chen Ce and the others have the possibility of completely engulfing the Japanese combined fleet.
"Let the torpedo planes withdraw and get on the fighters." Bai Chongxi said to Xia Quanyong, the commander of the aviation force on the side.
Xia Quanyong nodded, picked up the microphone, and began to dispatch the HNA troops under his command.
Kaohsiung, Tie Linfei has never let down his guard since he arrived here. As a leader in the New China military who was labeled as the Yun Party after returning to China, he has maintained high-frequency interactions with Ouyang Yun for a long time. It can be said that for Ouyang, Tie Linfei had a thorough understanding of Yun's every move, word and deed.
Since the Second Pacific War, it seems that China has an absolute advantage, but Tie Linfei knows that deep down in Ouyang Yun's heart, he is not as wise as he appears on the surface, and China's rise is still too fast. Well, especially the two former shortcomings of the Air Force and Navy, they are particularly fragile because of the lack of an accumulation process. In other words, if they can win for a long time, there is no doubt that as time goes by, These two services will definitely grow into world-class established powerhouses. However, if they encounter a failure, especially a major failure, the consequences will be unpredictable.
Isn't Xue Changkong good enough? No, among the generals of the Chinese Air Force, Xue Changkong, like Wang Hai, has long grown into a core figure who can lead an army on his own. So why did Ouyang Yun send him here? Without it, he just wants insurance. That's all.
The reason why the U.S. Pacific Fleet is able to fight repeatedly seems to be related to the strong economic strength of the United States. But from another perspective, this is not a reflection of the self-confidence of the U.S. Navy people. Where does their self-confidence come from? It is just accumulation. .
Therefore, in the eyes of others, Ouyang Yun's "Only victory and no defeat" may be just a mandatory order, but in Tie Linfei's view, it contains too many things.
I don't know if it was affected by Tielin Fei's tense nerves. Everyone at Kaohsiung Airport, from Xue Changkong to the ordinary mechanics, tensed up their hearts. It was precisely because of this high mental tension that When the information about the U.S. fleet came through, Kaohsiung Airport made the most correct response only five minutes later.
