In the early morning of this morning, before the sun rose, it was the time for the Japanese army to change the guard during the day. The soldiers who had rested for the night came out of the camp, washed their faces, brushed their teeth, and prepared to have breakfast. But on such a peaceful day, there was a harsh sound from the radar station.
With the sound of air raids, various troops on the island also sounded the alarm at the same time.
"Enemy attack!" A Japanese soldier with a toothbrush in his mouth shouted loudly in front of everyone's stunned eyes, but a missile rushed over from the thick fog and exploded beside him. He and his comrades
They were all caught in the fireworks, leaving only stumps and broken arms. Another missile exploded at another location.
"Air attack, the Chinese are coming!" Under the attack of a series of missiles, the Japanese soldiers recovered from their panic and rushed to their posts to resist the Chinese air attack.
The fog was dispersed by the bombs and gradually became thinner. The Japanese officer hiding in the building stuck his head out and stared at the vague shadow of the aircraft in the fog.
"Baga, are all the Chinese pilots crazy? They dare to take off in such horrible weather. Please call for help from the main island." A major shouted loudly.
An officer next to him smiled bitterly and said: "Major, the first round of attacks against the Chinese destroyed our headquarters and radar station, and the second round of attacks also destroyed our defense system and air defense system. The Chinese fire control system
It's very precise and targeted our vital points."
"What about the Air Force?" the major asked anxiously.
"Only one plane took off, but it fled directly north. The rest were destroyed on the runway. The Chinese didn't give us a chance to stay." The officer replied.
"Where's the navy?" the major asked next.
"The naval base is too far away from us and cannot be seen with the naked eye. I have sent people to contact us. When the headquarters was not destroyed just now, the navy was not attacked. It is difficult to say now." The officer replied.
"The Chinese are like hungry wolves, not even giving us a chance to stay. We lost. Lieutenant, now is the time to embody our Japanese soldiers. Give the order and stand firm and wait for reinforcements." The major said.
Boom, boom, before he finished speaking, the missile penetrated into this simple building, and the flames of the explosion instantly tore the people inside the house into pieces.
Half an hour later, the sun gradually rose and the fog dissipated. The Chinese aircraft battle group dived down from high altitude. Two missiles hit the target. The already tilting destroyer exploded violently and sank in the Pacific Ocean.
.
Hateruma Island was devastated, with all the military buildings in ruins, and thick smoke billowing from the ruins. Chinese fighter jets hovered in mid-air, confirming that there was really no place to attack, and quietly retreated.
Calm returned to the island. Several Japanese soldiers climbed up from the ruins. They had black cheeks, dirty, and broken military uniforms. He still held a damaged rifle in one hand, and he didn't know who he was holding tightly with the other hand.
With his broken arm and blood flowing on his uniform, he stood up with difficulty, crying and roaring to the sky.
At the end of the sky, fighter jets appeared again. He looked nervously at the group of returning fighter jets, with unyielding hatred in his eyes. Suddenly he saw a red sun at the bottom of the plane. He couldn't hold on any longer and knelt down to cover it.
He cried loudly with a straight face.
Yonaguni Island is Japan's closest island to Taiwan. It is also the western guardian of Iriomote Island and the most important link on Taiwan's supply line. The Japanese Army Self-Defense Force on this island alone exceeds 5,000, with an air force establishment of one squadron and one
The navy can be said to be large or small, and there is also a small town of 20,000 people on the island called Nishiki.
In the early morning of September 22, the mist had just dissipated, and the air force squadron was ordered to support Hateruma Island. Just after leaving Yonaguni Island, a submarine force suddenly surrounded the military port, blocked the door and bombarded it with torpedoes.
The military dock was damaged and two speedboats parked in the harbor were sunk.
Because the fleet suddenly escaped from patrolling the waters of Iriomote Island, in the waters south of Yonaguni Island, the speeding Yonaguni Island fleet blocked the Chinese submarine force, and the two sides launched a fierce naval battle.
After the Yonaguni Air Force supported by Hateruma Island entered the war, the balance of the war began to tilt towards Japan. Only the strong men of the exposed Chinese submarines had no choice but to have their arms broken, leaving three submarines with their backs broken, and the remaining submarines retreated to the Southeast Bashi Channel.
The submarine behind was no coward. Under the baptism of enemy artillery fire, it sank a destroyer and was buried with it.
Three hundred naval officers and soldiers were buried at the bottom of the sea, but their sacrifices paid for the survival of the entire formation.
Just as the Yonaguni Navy was preparing to pursue the pursuit and expand the victory, the Japanese Intelligence Ministry conveyed the news from the United States to the Sakishima Naval Command. The Nanhai Aircraft Carrier Formation, the main force of China's South China Sea Combined Fleet, originally stationed in the military port on the Penghu Islands in Taiwan, suddenly left the military port.
Sailing towards Bashi Strait.
The Japanese commander laughed wildly and concentrated all the forces on the Sakishima Islands to prepare for a head-on confrontation with China's most powerful South China Sea aircraft carrier formation in the Pacific.
In terms of ships, the total tonnage of warships on the Sakishima Islands is no less than that of the South China Sea aircraft carrier formation. Although there are no aircraft carrier-based aircraft here, there is a squadron of air force on Yonaguni Island, a brigade of air force on Ishigenjima Island, and a brigade of air force on Tarama Island.
There is a small air force, and Miyakojima has a squadron of aircraft, which does not suffer from the total number of air forces, and the carrier-based aircraft are one level weaker than ordinary aircraft in terms of combat capabilities.
After comprehensively comparing the strengths of both sides, the Japanese commander did not believe that he would lose this battle. He immediately uploaded the battle plan to the Japan Defense Agency and the Self-Defense Forces General Staff.
Japanese high-level officials also attach great importance to this plan. The Sakishima Islands, which have been continuously harassed by the Chinese navy, have seriously weakened Taiwan's supply capabilities. The Japanese navy's maneuverability is very weak, and it can concentrate its forces to solve the problems plaguing the Sakishima islands at once.
This attracted the attention of the Japanese high-level officials. A few hours later, the Japanese high-level officials passed the resolution of the battle. At this time, the Chinese aircraft carrier formation had just arrived at the Bashi Strait and headed towards Orchid Island.
Japanese and American satellites are concentrated in the southern part of the Taiwan Strait in the Pacific Ocean, monitoring this young and powerful aircraft carrier formation. The United States also wants to estimate the strength of the Chinese navy through this battle.
They also want to see the combat capabilities of China's aircraft carrier fleet. Until now, the United States does not believe in the fact that China has an aircraft carrier fleet. In their view, the navy's combat effectiveness is achieved through long-term training and running-in, especially the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers.
It requires actual combat to improve. For example, China's hastily assembled aircraft carrier fleet is at best a slightly larger battleship. The Chinese still have a long process to develop aircraft carriers.
