The showdown between more than two hundred fighter planes was a grand and tragic scene. As for the Japanese military, Takashimage Egusa was in charge of the overall command. At first, the little Japanese thought of using the fleet's anti-aircraft fire to weaken the Baiji's technology against the Zero.
Advantage. However, only about five minutes into the fierce battle between the two sides, he discovered that this move was simply impossible to achieve. Cannonballs don’t have eyes, and if the enemy plane is deliberately lured into the range of anti-aircraft fire, the enemy plane will have to become an enemy plane first.
The target of the attack. The kid's brain was not rigid. He realized that Yanagimoto's idea was a bad idea and immediately rejected it. He changed the order based on his own judgment: "Double-plane formation, attack separately. If there is a chance, give priority to attacking the enemy bombers. But be careful.
Remember not to get out of your defensive position!"
The Xuebing Army Air Force has previously sunk the aircraft carriers Akagi and Feilong, and recently annihilated the Fengxiang aircraft carrier fleet. Its power has long been deeply engraved in the hearts of the little devils, especially the navy devils. So when Xue Changkong led more than two
When hundreds of fighter planes appeared at Yanagimoto Yanasakuyan, the kid took it for granted that the Xuebing Army still wanted to use its aviation force to attack itself, so all the formations were focused on air defense, but he didn't expect that.
Although there are a large number of Xuebingjun fighter planes that are attacking this time, they are actually here to make trouble. The real protagonist is currently hiding on the bottom of the sea and on the coast around Green Island.
The Taipei Military Airport is only less than 300 kilometers away from the Green Island sea area. With the flying speed of the Zero, it can reach the battlefield in half an hour. Therefore, whether Yanagimoto or Jiang Cao, they all agreed that within half an hour
will be the most critical. As long as this half hour passes, what awaits the Xuebing Army will be a waste of money. In the view of Yamamoto and others, as long as they can severely damage the Xuebing Army Air Force, then it is
It is also cost-effective to lose an aircraft carrier except Soryu. You must know that in many shipyards in Japan, more than three aircraft carriers are under construction at the same time. So whether it is Ryujo or Okitaka, this kind can only carry two
A light aircraft carrier with thirty loaders really has nothing to lose.
When Yanagimoto sent out all the ship bombers, he ordered all the ship bombers to be put into the hangar. It was not a short process to move the fighters out of the hangar. In addition, there were 144 nearby
The bombers were staring eagerly, which invisibly attracted the attention of all the Japanese soldiers on board the Japanese ships, which reduced the amount of troops they invested in anti-submarine warfare. This created an opportunity for Xu Kai and Huang Tianxun to launch a sudden attack.
Favorable conditions.
Ten minutes passed, and twenty-three fighter planes disintegrated in the air and turned into a burning fireball, then splashed out or dragged thick smoke into the sea. Among them, the Japanese army lost fourteen, and the Xuebing Army
The side lost nine. The Xuebing Army's side also included a Baiji bomber - when the Baiji and two other friendly aircraft were diving to drop bombs, a Zero found an opportunity to interrupt the left wing, and then spun into the ground.
Into the sea.
Xue Changkong couldn't help being furious when he saw this scene. After the ambush plan came out, the student airmen tried to make them the protagonists, but after some calculations, they came to the conclusion that if they wanted to completely annihilate this force,
In the case of Japan's mixed fleet, the loss of fighter planes will be more than fifty. This loss is unbearable by the student army, so Xue Changkong, who is most enthusiastic about it, can only give up the fight. Since he is not the main force in this battle, then
Their primary goal is not to shoot down many Japanese planes or sink many ships, but to contain the enemy's air force while minimizing the loss of fighter planes. As for bombing, you have to wait for the opportunity, and if there is no opportunity,
, there is absolutely no risk. In the pre-war plan, the General Headquarters asked Xue Changkong and the others to stay on the battlefield until the Japanese Taipei Air Corps arrived. This process would take about half an hour, and half an hour of fierce fighting was enough.
Let the fighting Japanese aircraft consume most of the fuel and then it will not be enough to fly to Taipei Airport. In that case, as long as those three aircraft carriers can be sunk, then all the enemy aircraft carried by these three aircraft carriers can be harvested at the same time.
Under such circumstances, nine aircraft were lost in just a quarter of an hour. How could Xue Changkong not be heartbroken?! "Do you think my words fell on deaf ears? Timing, timing! Containment, containment! All the tactical arrangements have been thrown into the sea?!
"He cursed in the command channel, and then complained in his heart: "MD, these two bastards Xu Kai and Huang Tianxun, why haven't they started yet?!"
The thought just passed through Xue Changkong's mind. In the combat command room of the Hamakaze, the flagship of the Japanese escort fleet headed by six destroyers from Singapore, a Japanese sonar soldier wearing a receiver suddenly shouted
: "Submarine, submarine!"
In front of him, Fleet Commander Masayuki Kitamura was watching the impact of the ship's anti-aircraft fire with a telescope. He was startled when he heard this, then turned around and asked: "Bearing, what's the bearing?"
The sonar soldier opened his mouth to answer when suddenly a bright light flashed on the left side of the ship, and then a "rumbling" explosion sounded. A wave of water rose into the sky, and the ship shook violently. The sonar soldier lost his footing and blurted out a surprise.
Phew, he sat down on the ground.
"Ba Ge, hit by a torpedo!" Kitamura yelled and kicked the sonar soldier, then he lost his center of gravity and fell down.
The sudden attack was a Song-class submarine with the hull number "s-008". The submarine drifted into the battlefield along the current after turning off its power unit, because Yanagimoto Yasaku ordered the destroyer to be responsible for the outermost protection, and the result was
The outermost "Hamakaze" on the right side of the mixed fleet became its first prey. "S-008" only used one torpedo, and this destroyer became the first unlucky one to be swallowed by the sea water.
"We were torpedoed, American submarines joined the battlefield, we need rescue-" Kitamura got up with difficulty, picked up the microphone and shouted on the command channel.
His shouts were like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of the Japanese captains. Only then did the Japanese captains remember that they had participated in the escort because the transport fleet was targeted by American submarines. They also thought of the student soldiers.
The military's torpedo boat units also gathered towards Taiwan, and many people, especially Yanagimoto Yanasakushin, couldn't help feeling bad.
Xue Changkong looked down from a high position and looked far away. He saw from a distance that a large wave of waves suddenly appeared along the coast of the small island of Green Island. The white flowers were very dazzling. Then he saw traces of torpedoes breaking through the waves beginning to appear on the water, and his heart was agitated.
Song secretly thought: "These two guys, Xu Kai and Huang Tianxun, are not stupid!"
Because the Japanese were worried that their anti-submarine aircraft would be hit by their own anti-aircraft artillery, they did not even think about letting these fighters take off. Therefore, the anti-submarine aircraft carried on several cruisers were still in the hangar. Compared with the brightly visible fighter planes, they were lurking in the water.
The submarine inside was naturally even more terrifying. Suddenly, there was news of enemy submarines. They immediately ignored everything and immediately ordered the anti-submarine aircraft to take off, and at the same time issued anti-submarine orders.
