Chapter 744 The Battle of Naval Glory (Part 2)
"Our fleet was won by His Majesty Prince Fushimigu in person! Including the research and development funds for our battleships and fighter planes, all came from His Highness the Prince's attention!"
Nagumo Chuichi looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "So, our battle is not only our own battle, but also the battle of the entire Imperial Navy and even us and the Army's bunch of horse shit!"
Nagumo Chuichi, this man is indeed a rare naval talent! If he were to command a group of cruisers and battleships, he would undoubtedly achieve extremely good results.
Historically, after the navy decided to attack Pearl Harbor, the entire navy had a headache on how to covertly sail three thousand nautical miles. Only Nagumo patted his chest and said that everyone should not worry about sailing.
"As long as you can fly, drop bombs, and blow up U.S. ships, I will definitely take you to the place you designate!" This was what South Korea was saying at that time.
Yun Zhongyi's words, and later facts proved that Nanyun did this.
Chuichi Nagumo was an expert in mine warfare and navigation. In history, it was he who sailed covertly for thousands of miles with six aircraft carriers, and finally successfully attacked Pearl Harbor, causing huge losses to the US military.
But Chuichi Nagumo was only good at navigation and mines. When it came to aircraft carrier operations, the commander was blinded. In the historical Battle of Midway, Nagumo Chuichi showed this.
In that naval battle, four of the six aircraft carriers in the fleet commanded by Minamizo Chuichi were sunk. This was entirely due to his improper command.
According to his instructions at the time, the Japanese navy performed two "torpedoes for bombs" on the aircraft carrier. The "bombs for torpedoes" show hoarded a large amount of ammunition on the aircraft carrier deck, turning the Japanese aircraft carrier into a huge gunpowder magazine.
After being hit by a bomb from a US aircraft on the flight deck, the bomb detonated the ammunition on the deck, not only causing fatal damage to the aircraft carrier but also making the aircraft carrier's fire uncontrollable.
After receiving this order in the command room of the "Hiryu" aircraft carrier, Rear Admiral Yamaguchi Tawen immediately sent a "response" to Vice Admiral Nagumo on the flag ship "Akagi".
Use existing airborne equipment to launch an attack immediately!" message. However, Nagumo did not make any reply to this.
As a result of this mistake, the "Akagi", "Kaga" and "Soryu" were easily sunk by the US military. At that time, the commander of the "Hiryu", Major General Yamaguchi Tamon, had his combat strategy rejected by Nagumo, or rather
Ignore it. In fact, if Yamaguchi's advice had been followed, at least the three aircraft carriers would not have been sunk so easily.
Therefore, we can judge the fact that Nagumo Chuichi is not suitable to be the commander of an aircraft carrier. A pilot or a fleet escort commander may be more suitable for him.
In fact, we cannot blame Nagumo Chuichi. He just did not keep up with the pace of the war in his thinking. In fact, there were many such people in the entire Japanese Navy at that time.
Except for Yamamoto Isoroku, Yamaguchi Tamon and a few other generals who have the awareness of aircraft carrier operations, the rest of the naval generals still maintain the strategic thinking of "big guns and giant ships" from World War I.
The so-called "Yamato" was actually the result of this strategic thinking. However, this result was vulnerable to the bombing of naval battles. They failed to rush to the aircraft carrier as expected and were bombed and sank to the bottom of the sea by bombers.
"This time, our mission is to attack! Attack! Attack again!" Chuichi Nagumo looked at several captains and said solemnly: "After entering the waters of the Liaodong Peninsula, all fleets dispatched fighter jets and bombers to the designated coordinates to attack directly!
"
"Hai!!" All the captains stood up and responded loudly!
At this time, the navy's warships had slowly left the port. The air force near the 38th parallel had also entered a state of combat readiness. Everyone was sleeping with their clothes on, waiting for the day to come!
Early morning of February 28, 1938, Liaodong Peninsula.
Dozens of warships came riding the wind and waves, splashing water against the warships. Dancing with the waves and strong wind was the ferocious sixteen-striped rising sun flag!
Anyone familiar with the Japanese army knows that the 16-striped Rising Sun Flag is the exclusive flag for all Japanese armies. The 16-striped Rising Sun Flag used by the Army has the "Hinomaru" in the middle.
The sixteen-striped rising sun flag used by the navy has the "Hinomaru" on the right side. The explanation of the sixteen-striped rising sun flag in the Japanese army is: It means the rising sun, no matter how hard it is, fight!
This flag gradually changed later. The flag used by the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force in later generations still continued the Japanese Navy's right-sided sixteen-striped rising sun flag. The Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force adopted a new type of golden-horned eight-striped rising sun flag.
flag.
"Buzz buzz..." On the deck of the battleship, the roar of fighter jets was heard. Fighters gathered on the deck one after another, slowly warming up and making adjustments under the command of the sailors.
There are a total of 200 aircraft on the four aircraft carriers. Among them, a total of 100 "Type Zero Carrier-Based Fighters-1" are used for combat, and a hundred are Type 99 Carrier-Based Dive Bombers.
The Zero was the first to pull up and fly into the air! On the four aircraft carriers, fighter jets continued to take off, and at the same time bombers also began to prepare.
Chuichi Nagumo held a telescope on the bridge and looked at the fighter jets soaring into the sky. He felt a sense of pride in his heart. Even the U.S. Navy would be moved by such a lineup, wouldn't it?! The empire's military might will arrive in the Pacific sooner or later!
As the Japanese fighter planes took off, a "didi..." alarm sounded from the secret radar station on the coast of the peninsula! The translator of the radar station found the base supervisor, and the news that a large number of Japanese fighter planes were approaching here immediately spread.
Inside Air Force Headquarters.
"Dong dong dong... Commander, the radar station sent an emergency telegram!" There was a knock on the door of Gao Zhihang, commander of the Korean Theater Air Force, and then the adjutant heard a strong voice coming from inside.
"Come in!" The adjutant opened the door and walked in. He respectfully handed the telegram to Gao Zhihang, who was resting in the office with his eyes closed. After receiving the telegram, Gao Zhihang smiled slightly.
"Inform the troops and start taking action! Tell those brothers in the navy that if you go late, don't blame me for not leaving some soup for them!"
"yes!!"
At the same time, a group of people were holding flashlights in the forest and shaking them toward the sky. They climbed up to the treetops, and no one even noticed their movements because the flashlights were pointing into the air.
"Buzz buzz..." The flying Japanese fighter planes followed the guidance of these lights and headed towards the airport of the Korean War Zone of the National Defense Forces! But they did not notice that when their fleet flew over, the lights below slowly went out.
.
In the woods, Zhang Yan, whose face was full of paint, smiled and pulled down a man who was shining a flashlight on the treetops. "Crack!" he broke his neck, while people nearby kept pulling these men with flashlights from the treetops.
The person pulled it down.
Either the neck was broken, or the joints of the arms and legs were removed and thrown on the ground like garbage bags.
"After raising these people, we can finally clean it up~" But he saw Lin Shanhe's thin figure falling from the tree like a fallen leaf. He was also holding a hand that had been removed and the chin was unscrewed.
Joint man.
The man looked at Lin Shanhe in horror. He didn't understand why he was caught without any ability to resist. Is the person who caught him a human?! Why does he look like a mountain ghost?!
"What's going on elsewhere?!" Lin Shanhe asked lightly after throwing the man who had no ability to resist on the ground.
"The cleanup has already started. Now that we have started fighting, these people have no value. It's time for us to clean up." Zhang Yan shrugged.
"Boom, boom, boom...boom, boom..." In the distance, there were bursts of machine gun blasts and explosions! Lin Shanhe and Zhang Yan looked at each other with a smile, put the surviving man on the ground on his shoulders, and then slowly disappeared.
In the woods.
Hearing the explosion, there was also Gao Zhihang, commander of the Korean Theater Air Force. But he smiled slightly and ordered to the adjutant: "Ask Commander Ka Jinghuan of the Fifth Army to attack now! He wants to find the Japanese warship, and then
Kill them!"
"Yes!!" the adjutant responded loudly, then turned and left the office.
Soon, a telegram was sent to Kabini, commander of the Fifth Army of the National Defense Forces Air Force. Lao Ka was already impatient with waiting. After receiving the order, he immediately activated all the aircraft on standby without saying a word!
The secret airport was suddenly brightly lit, and countless Tiger Shark Type A and Type B planes suddenly rose from the ground! Flying towards the sea not far away, they roared away in groups, like eagles soaring in the blue sea and sky.
!
On the sea, Shen Honglie closed his eyes and rested on his flagship "Jiawu". "Jiawu" was the original Queen Elizabeth-class "Warspite" purchased by the National Defense Force from the United Kingdom.
The reason why it was called "Sino-Japanese War" was because Shen Honglie reminded himself, and also reminded all the navies: the national humiliation has not been resolved, and the blood feud is still at heart! And the other Queen Elizabeth class ship "Barham" was renamed "Donggou"!
This is also to tell all the navy: the national humiliation should not be forgotten!
"Boom, boom...boom!!" Dozens of kilometers above the airport, the Japanese Navy's air force felt that they had fallen into a trap. They had just followed the instructions below and followed the instructions below when they arrived near the airport.
Before the attack target was found, they were ambushed by fighter jets! The opponent's first wave of cannons destroyed about one-fifth of the fighter jets in the formation.
During the subsequent battle between the two sides, these pilots sadly discovered that the tactics used by the other side seemed to be completely unfamiliar to them. After launching the first wave of attacks, they immediately pulled up and then dived towards the Japanese aircraft!
The unprepared Japanese fighter planes had already lost a quarter of their aircraft in just over ten minutes of fighting. Fortunately, although the Type 99 carrier bombers were not very flexible, they were finally able to protect themselves.
After a period of panic, the Japanese army stabilized its position in front of the fighter planes. Search on Baidu and search by hand to download this book.
But the fleet staying at sea did not have such good luck. The radar station had already roughly calculated the location of the Japanese warships based on the route of the Japanese fighter planes and notified the War Eagles through radio!
