Chapter 571: The brave who meet on a narrow road wins
Following the example of the officers of the Pacific Naval Aviation Force, the first person to notice that the Japanese had launched a suicide attack was Qiu Haiming, the captain of the Wudou Tianwang fighter group. Right in front of Qiu Haiming, a Type 96 warship bombarded a Golden Eagle sideways.
Rushing over, the Golden Eagle had just chased a Type 97 warship and shot it down. The Golden Eagle was crushing all the Japanese fighter jets, so naturally the pilot of the aircraft would not shoot down the Type 96 warship.
So even though he received a warning from the lead aircraft and learned that a Type 96 warship appeared above and to his left, he didn't take it seriously. On the one hand, his confidence came from the excellent performance of the Golden Eagle.
Then there is the common sense of air combat - between fighter jets and bombers, often the bombers are too late to hide. Just imagine, how could this Type 96 ship bomber take the initiative to stroke the whiskers of my golden eagle?
"Hey, snacks delivered to your door!" the pilot of the plane said confidently, and then just as he was about to adjust the direction, the pilot of the lead plane exclaimed, and the Type 96 bomber had opened fire. Of course, although the distance was only
More than 500 meters, but the Golden Eagle's strong armor can still withstand the bullets fired by Type 96 warships. The fighter plane was hit by bullets, and the pilot of the aircraft did not dare to be careless. Although the Golden Eagle's armor is hard enough, it must be guarded against
The weak points such as the cockpit canopy, engine, and rudder were hit. The correct choice at this time was to pull the fighter up immediately, and the pilot of the aircraft also did so. However, what made Qiu Haiming's brows jump was that the Type 96
However, the ship bomber did not take advantage of the situation to escape or break through, but also pulled up the nose of the aircraft and rushed towards the Golden Eagle. Then, after the pilot of the lead aircraft exclaimed, the Type 96 ship bomber hit the aircraft
The left wing of the Golden Eagle directly broke the left wing of the Golden Eagle. Because of the material used, even if the Type 96 ship bomber used the strongest nose part to hit the Golden Eagle's softer wing,
But it was still not something it could withstand. There was no explosion or fire, and the Type 96 bomber rolled and fell like a bird with broken wings. Following closely behind, the Golden Eagle was not spared either. Although the aircraft
The pilot even tried his best to feed the aircraft, but still couldn't keep it balanced. Under repeated stern orders from the lead pilot and Qiu Haiming, he finally chose to abandon the plane and parachute.
"Report to the commander, the kid is going crazy and starting to launch suicide attacks!" Qiu Haiming immediately reported to Wang Hai.
Wang Hai had noticed something strange through observation, and his suspicions were confirmed, and he became vigilant. Although Wang Hai has always been engaged in the air force, his years of war career have already made him accustomed to looking at problems from the overall situation. Through
Observing, he found that the Japanese destroyers and heavy cruisers were approaching us. Then he looked at the enemy battleships that continued to approach us despite the bombing. He guessed Takasu Shiro's plan, found Chen Shichang, and said to him
: "Commander, the Japanese naval aviation force has begun to launch special attack tactics. Obviously, the Japanese naval aviation force is at the end of its rope and is ready to go all out. Have you noticed that their escort ships are all approaching our main fleet. It is not ugly from this.
After the defeat of his raiding fleet, Chuichi Nagumo realized that there was no hope of victory, and was ready to make a desperate move. They also had the Wuwei and Wujiu aircraft carrier fleets, so even if they were defeated, as long as they could cause a big loss in my strength
, then they will still be the ones to take the initiative."
Chen Shichang had been grasping the overall situation through the sea view sandbox, so although he discovered that the enemy frigate group was approaching our main ship group, he did not know the specific pattern of the air battle. After hearing this, he asked: "Commander Wang, do you have any good suggestions?"
Of course Wang Hai already had an idea. He said: "The overall tactical intention of the Japanese is now obvious. At the beginning, their biggest hope was the fifty special attack aircraft force. But now, Nagumo Chuichi should want to sacrifice
The tactics of giant ships and cannons were introduced. The easy defeat of the raiding fleet by Commander Qi inspired me. Should we organize the frigates and let them conduct a round of raids? The Japanese want to use the tactics of giant ships and cannons to make a comeback, so let’s let them try it.
Our army's artillery is so powerful." As he spoke, he pointed at the Japanese battleships and heavy cruisers on the seascape sand table, and then said: "Focus on attacking their battleships and heavy cruisers. Nagumo Chuichi wants to implement the tactics of giant ships and artillery. He can rely on them.
These are the battleships. We don’t want to sink them, as long as their main guns can be destroyed, then these battleships will become empty frames and will no longer pose a threat to our army."
Frigates, to be precise, should be missile frigates, which are considered a new type of ship created by Xuebing Army. This type of ship is not only equipped with a large number of Poseidon ship-to-ship missiles, but also equipped with multiple rocket launcher turrets. These rocket launchers can both
Use Thunderbolt III rockets to provide air defense support for the main group, and use Thunderbolt IV rockets for range attacks. Although the Thunderbolt IV rockets are not powerful enough to sink even a heavy cruiser, they can be used to destroy
The construction on the ship is not a problem. Moreover, the speed of this type of ship is extremely fast, generally exceeding 35 knots, making it perfect for carrying out raids.
The formation of the Japanese Combined Fleet is very different from that of the Pacific Fleet. As for the Xuebing Army, Ouyang Yun strictly based on the experience of later generations, equipped an aircraft carrier with two cruisers, two to three destroyers, one to two submarines and
The proportion of a supply ship is to form the main fleet with the aircraft carrier as the core, but the Japanese combined fleet is accustomed to forming squadrons based on ship types, and then building large fleets for combat purposes. It is currently difficult to distinguish the advantages of these two organizational methods.
Bad, but based on the current situation, it seems that the preparation for war is more complicated for the Xuebing Army.
The stakes in this battle are too important. As Wang Hai said, Japan still has two aircraft carrier groups, the Wuwei and the Takejiu. Even if the Yamato aircraft carrier fleet is defeated, Japan still has the capital for a war. What about the country? The whole country.
With such an ocean-going fleet, not only could they not be defeated, they could not even suffer major battle losses. This is no wonder why when Chen Shichang held a pre-war meeting, he would declare that he could only win but not lose. In fact, they simply could not afford to lose.
.This also shows how heavy the burden is on Chen Shichang’s shoulders.
As a new type of ship with completely independent intellectual property rights for the Xuebing Army, frigates are not valued by Chen Shichang because they did not perform very well in training before. Of course, one moment, another moment,
As the Poseidon ship-to-ship missiles became more powerful and caused heavy damage to the Japanese raiding fleet, Chen Shichang no longer looked at them with the old eyes.
Currently, the Pacific Fleet is equipped with a total of 17 frigates, 13 of which are completely produced and assembled by ourselves, and the other four are modified.
Chen Shichang pondered for a moment, clenched his fist fiercely with his right hand and waved: "When we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. If the little devil wants to fight for his life, it depends on whether we give him a chance. Not only the frigates, but also the heavy cruisers will attack in separate formations. The escort mission of the aircraft carrier is
Leave it to the destroyer group. I order..."
