The flagship of the Third Air Force, the "Longxiang" aircraft carrier.

If Major General Kakuji didn't take it seriously when the first reconnaissance plane flew by, he thought that the reconnaissance plane took off from Soda Island before dawn and was flying backward. Then when the second reconnaissance plane flew from the same direction, Kakuji felt something was wrong.

That's the east side!

When arranging the second round of reconnaissance, no adjustments were made to the flight route of the reconnaissance aircraft?

Although Kakuji's ability is not as good as Lan Yun and Ze San, and even Yamaguchi of the Second Air Force, otherwise he would not have been thrown into the Third Air Force as the commander, no matter how bad he is, he knows that when conducting reconnaissance, he has to adjust the flight route of the reconnaissance aircraft according to the actual situation.

The two almost identical reconnaissance operations were not unexpectedly rewarded even if they were separated by several hours.

Besides, which fleet commander will build victory or defeat, or even life and death on accidents?

After doubting, Kaori did nothing.

It is very simple and cannot break the radio silence. Moreover, the two aircraft carriers of the Third Air Force, namely the Longxiang and the Fengxiang, were preparing for the attack. The deck was full of bombers and torpedoes waiting to take off, and the ground crew were refueling these fighters.

Shortly after dawn, about seven o'clock, the second main team sent all seaplanes to Xuhai to search for the attack target, that is, the local fleet. According to the plan, after the seaplane found the target, the third aviation team must immediately launch an attack.

In the first wave, all ship explosions and ship attacks must be dispatched.

That's right, this is Takano's plan.

In the early morning, the first main team sent a telegram, asking Kakuji to cooperate with the second main team to annihilate the Liangxia fleet that was trying to enter the East Ocean through the Watcher Strait, and in the subsequent operations, assisted the landing troops in capturing the main islands north and south of the strait.

The telegram was also sent to the second main team.

Otherwise, the second main team would not actively send seaplanes to search for targets for the third aviation team.

In addition, Kakuji already knew that the mobile fleet was wiped out in the Yanhai, and before that, he had received news of the destruction of the Fifth Air Force.

Kakuji obtained the news of the destruction of the mobile fleet and the Fifth Air Force from the broadcast of the Liangxia Empire.

The broadcast signal comes from the guard island, where there is a very powerful signal transmitting tower, which continuously forwards the broadcast signal of the Liangxia Empire for 24 hours a day.

There is no way to do this. The North-South Bean Islands are legally the overseas territory of the Liangxia Empire.

Although Takano did not mention it in the telegram, according to Kakuji's understanding, if the local fleet that was coming at full speed cannot be severely damaged during the day, the second main team may not be able to persist until the first main team arrives, and the subsequent login operation will not be carried out as planned.

In addition, the third aviation special mixed fleet needs to be included!

It is precisely this that Kakuji believes that he has to launch an attack with all his might, and strive to defeat the local fleet in just one wave.

At least the main battleships of the local fleet need to be severely damaged.

As long as the local fleet stops, the Third Air Special Mix Fleet will not dare to enter the Watcher Strait alone at night, and will have to stay in the Sea of ​​Xu. Tomorrow, after the landing troops arrive and occupy the Guard Island and the Watch Island, the Third Air Special Mix Fleet will not be able to make up much waves even if it is a dragon.

Kakuji bets on offense, and there is another reason that cannot be ignored.

The "Longxiang" and the "Fengxiang" are small aircraft carriers. Even if some improvements were made before the war, such as the "Longxiang" being able to carry a 97-ship attack, it cannot be compared with the fleet aircraft carrier. Even if it goes all out, the two aircraft carriers can only carry more than 60 carrier-based aircraft.

What can this little force do?

Kakuji is very self-aware and does not have any unrealistic fantasies. As long as he can get a chance to attack before being exposed or to be precise, that is enough. Even if he can fight to pieces, as long as he can complete the task, it will be worth it.

The key point is that the second reconnaissance aircraft still did not discover the "Longxiang".

When the Longxiang was more than 30 kilometers away, the "Flying Fish" was intercepted by the 96 ship.

After a while of entanglement with the 96 ship, the "Flying Fish" turned and did not continue to fly west before the two nearby fighters arrived.

It was so far away, and the sky was covered with clouds, and the pilots definitely did not find the aircraft carrier dozens of kilometers away.

What are you going to worry about?

Unfortunately, Kakuji had no idea that when the 96 ship was expelling the "flying fish", a "wasp" entered from the same direction, but the height was much lower. Below the clouds, it was still before the "flying fish" turned and flew away. It was only after flying about ten kilometers away from the "Longxiang". After flying below the clouds for less than three minutes, the "wasp" drilled into the clouds again.

In these few minutes, no one noticed the "wasp".

Because the fighter drove out the reconnaissance aircraft in this direction, even if someone saw it, he would treat it as a fighter moving nearby.

In addition, after entering the clouds, the "wasp" turned south and flew dozens of kilometers before flying out of the clouds.

Fifteen minutes later, the "Hornets" caught up with the "Flying Fish" who had been driven out by the 96 ship battle and was forced to turn south to avoid it.

Then, "Flying Fish" sent a telegram.

The "wasp" did not fly southwest with the "flying fish", that is, the direction of Zudao, but flew southeast, with the vast sea there.

More than two hundred kilometers away, a large group of attack aircraft was flying towards this side.

The pilot of the "Hornet" is Major Ji Yeshang, who is a captain of the Third Ship-Board Air Force Circle, an elite pilot of the three-material and capable of flying three types of carrier-based aircraft.

According to the plan formulated last night, Ji Yeshang had to drive the "Flying Fish" to lead the first group of aircraft to launch an attack.

Unexpectedly, his landline was requisitioned.

Although the service staff promised to install a backup radio station for another "Flying Fish" as soon as possible, Ji Yeshang felt that it would be better to fly to the sky to find opportunities than to stay on the aircraft carrier. The key is that in the newly arranged attack tactics, a commander needs to be sent to lead the way.

At that time, Zhou Yongtao spent fifteen minutes explaining this complicated tactic to Ji Yeshang and several elite pilots who drove "Hornets" to explore the way.

If you want to say, he might have been confused by all those who go around.

Ji Yeshang didn't fully understand it, but he grasped the key point.

The "Hornets" leading the way are all accompanied by the "Flying Fish". After finding the third aviation team, they flew to the agreed sea area, met with the attack aircraft group, and then led the attack aircraft group to launch an attack. The key is that the "Hornets" pilots leading the way are directed the attack operation throughout the entire process.

Why did Zhou Yongtao make it so complicated?

There is no difference in the reason.

Ensure the concealment of the Third Air Force fleet, so as not to expose their whereabouts by launching an attack, and to allow the enemy to make wrong judgments.

In Zhou Yongtao's words, it may be possible to bring the enemy into the gutter.

Ji Yeshang felt that it was completely unnecessary and it was simply unnecessary.

As long as you wipe out the third aviation team in one fell swoop and kill those two small fleet aircraft carriers, what else do you need to worry about?
