Age of Conquest Reborn

--go-->Hasegawa commanded the Third Fleet to show off its power and pass through the Andaman Islands gracefully. It was just a warship firing dozens of artillery shells. The British garrison on the island was already scared out of their wits. If only Hasegawa Kiyoshi had been more patient

, after waiting for a few hours, he will be pleasantly surprised to see the white flag raised by the British, setting a precedent for the Japanese navy to effortlessly occupy British islands.

The Third Fleet of the Japanese Navy swept past the Andaman Islands in a mighty manner. The British commander on the island did not return to his position until he confirmed that the Japanese were not coming towards him. He was so frightened that he was trembling with fear.

Later, it turned out to be a false alarm, and the situation was reported to the General Headquarters of the Indian Army. The British Commander-in-Chief was relieved.

After thinking about it, was it wrong? The Japanese fleet was coming from the direction of the Strait of Malacca. The Americans didn't send a telegram to remind them in advance. They were just kissing each other. How could they just have fun? A telegram was sent to the U.S. military.

Headquarters, there are a lot of complaints and accusations.

The call back was the same as the one given to Tang Qiuli. Commander-in-Chief MacArthur and Chief of Staff Stilwell had gone to Washington for a meeting. They would wait for the two chief officers to come back before giving a reply. The British could not hold their breath, but MacArthur saw it.

After listening to the telegram from the Commander-in-Chief of the British Army, I felt apologetic and focused on dealing with the Japanese fleet and Tang Qiuli. I forgot about this problem. I'm sorry, brother.

Guilt was guilt. MacArthur was not prepared to explain anything, so he simply pretended to be mute. He couldn't explain the key thing. It was very embarrassing to say it. How could General MacArthur, who claimed to be the first man in Southeast Asia, be embarrassed?

At about ten o'clock in the morning on November 16, the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet had sailed into Motama Bay. It would take another three or four hours to sail ashore at Yangon Port. Hasegawa Kiyoshi did not feel relieved.

, from the bottom of his heart, he didn’t want to deal with the hated Ito at all, leaving aside the dirty things between the army and navy. Hasegawa Kiyoshi was very cold to Ito alone.

After lunch, Hasegawa Kiyoshi ordered the communications officer to send a final telegram to Yangon, informing the fleet of the specific arrival time, cleaning the port, controlling civilian ships, and imposing martial law on the shore. These are all things Ito should do. Then, Hasegawa

Accompanied by several staff officers, Qing came to the deck in low spirits.

God has been very kind to the Third Fleet. During the few days of sailing at sea, we did not encounter any big waves. We were spared the pain of turbulence. The Andaman Sea in November was surprisingly calm, the sun was shining, the water and the sky were the same color, and there were white clouds.

Duo, the sea breeze is moist, and everyone feels relaxed and happy. In addition, it is about to land, and the journey is very smooth. If you are unhappy, you are causing trouble.

Several staff officers felt this way when they looked at the unhappy commander, and murmured to themselves. "What's wrong with the commander? It's like someone owes him a huge sum of money. His face is full of lawsuits. Isn't this right?"

Are you looking for trouble?"

A staff officer diligently brought a canvas chair and asked the commander to sit down. Then, he leaned into Hasegawa Kiyoshi's ear and whispered: "Commander, Commander-in-Chief Ito called back, the ** Division troops, from

Starting this morning, there have been frequent transfers. The Commander-in-Chief

I am afraid that the commander himself will not be able to go to the dock to greet the commander in person, and the chief of staff, Major General Kawashima, will greet him on his behalf. In addition, Commander-in-Chief Ito also reminded in the telegram that this morning, the aircraft of the ** Division were frequently active over Yangon. Please ask Mr.

Attention, Commander."

Hasegawa smiled coldly and did not comment. As for whether the old guy Ito came to greet him in person, it didn't matter. It was all superficial. Even if Ito came in person, it would not be able to make up for the difference between the two. It was Ito's reminder.

, which made his heart skip a beat, and he suddenly became alert.

Kiyoshi Hasegawa is an excellent Japanese naval commander. Otherwise, he would not be able to sit in the position of fleet commander. According to the information provided by the Navy Department, the aviation unit of the ** Division should have the most forward airport in Myitkyina in northern Myanmar.

It is probably more than a thousand kilometers away from Yangon. With the endurance of the most advanced fighter jets and bombers from various countries, they can fly to the vicinity of Yangon.

However, if you continue to fly to the airspace of the Andaman Sea, you can only maintain an air battle for less than eight minutes. Otherwise, there will be insufficient fuel and you will not be able to return. Unless the pilot of the Navy Division lands the plane in the sea and swims back, there will be another

Who would do such a stupid thing?

Despite this, Kiyoshi Hasegawa still ordered a squadron of aircraft carrier-based aircraft to take off and cruise north of Yangon. He did not believe that the Japanese Navy's aircraft could fly over the Andaman Sea to attack his fleet.

This is a completely instinctive reaction, is it foolproof?

On the Japanese aircraft carrier, six "Type 96" carrier-based aircraft rose into the sky and disappeared into the blue sky in an instant. The warm sunshine made Hasegawa Kiyoshi feel sleepy and he dozed off unconsciously.

Come, a staff officer hurry up

He brought a military blanket and gently covered the commander. Then, several staff officers stood upright behind Hasegawa Kiyoshi, in case the commander suddenly woke up and couldn't find anyone, and it was time to get angry. In that case, who would

I can't afford the guilt either.

The fleet led by Le Yiqin, commander of the Southern Flying Group of the ** Division, is divided into two echelons and is flying at full speed at an altitude of several thousand meters. This time, all the aircraft of the Southern Flying Group came out, twelve fighter groups.

, seven bomber regiments, with a total of more than a thousand aircraft, formed a layer of clouds in the blue sky, blocking the sky and the sun.

This is the first time in the operational history of the Southern Flying Group. Ever since Hasegawa Kiyoshi's third fleet arrived at the Singapore port, division commander Tang Qiuli issued a combat order to Le Yiqin: "Rear Admiral Le Yiqin, Commander of the Southern Flying Group"

, the Ministry of Defense immediately prepared for battle and launched an air attack on the Japanese Navy’s Third Fleet and troop transport ships in Motama Bay. All fighter planes were used in this battle, waiting for the order to attack.”

This was an order on the surface, as well as a secret order given by Tang Qiuli to Le Yiqin: "Le Yiqin, please remember, all Japanese troop transports can be destroyed, and Japanese aircraft carriers and other warships can only be damaged if they are damaged."

Lord, however, all aircraft carrier-based aircraft must be eliminated in this battle. Please use your brain for specific tactics. After they are drafted, send them to me for review."

This secret order really made Le Yiqin's head hurt. More than a thousand fighter jets and bombers came out, blasted the little devil's warship into a pile of scrap metal, and sent it to the sea to feed the sharks. He had absolute power

Sure, but it would be difficult to damage the Japanese warships but not allow them to be sunk. Why did the division commander give me such a problem?

Le Yiqin muttered, summoning all the officers from the Operations Department and the Technology Department together. After holding it in for two days, he finally came up with a feasible combat plan. The fighter formation was divided into two echelons. The first echelon was divided into three hundred

Eighty-six fighter jets are the main ones, and their main task is to kill the Japanese carrier-based aircraft. The second echelon of more than 200 fighter jets is responsible for killing the Japanese carrier-based aircraft that slip through the net.

The bomber formation spared the three aircraft carriers of the Little Japanese and specialized in attacking other Japanese ships. For this reason, Le Yiqin ordered all bombers not to carry torpedoes but to load heavy aviation bombs to blow up the cannons on the Little Japanese warships.

After all, he also vaguely guessed the division commander's intention. An aircraft carrier without carrier-based aircraft is like a toothless tiger, unable to bite anyone.

Killing the naval guns on the Japanese warships is equivalent to abolishing the martial arts skills of the Japanese warships. It is similar to surrendering the opponent's guns in a battle with the army. The Japanese fleet's anti-aircraft firepower is very strong. Le Yiqin does not want his troops to fly in with hundreds of planes.

Take a loss

After a disastrous victory, he came up with a trick. The second wave of attacking fighter formations mainly consumed the anti-aircraft firepower and ammunition of the Japanese warships. They relied on the flexibility and high speed of the fighter jets to hover at high altitudes and lure the little Japanese to fire continuously.

According to Le Yiqin's estimate, a few hours of entanglement would be enough. In the end, the bomber formation appeared and bombed the deck of the little devil's warship. All plans were based on the endurance and flight time of the fleet.

, in that era, there were no aerial tankers.

Le Yiqin is not worried at all about this. The second-echelon fighter and bomber formations are equipped with two sets of auxiliary fuel tanks. Although some speed and flexibility are lost, the airborne time is increased by more than twice. The Little Devil's carrier-based aircraft

After a lot of fighting, the fuel was almost exhausted, and the first echelon of fighters had just enough fuel to return home.

At this time, the second echelon suddenly pounced on the aircraft carrier deck, and the Little Japanese carrier-based aircraft waiting to be refueled became a bunch of living targets. Le Yiqin was quite proud of his dirty trick, and reported the battle plan to division commander Tang Qiuli

After there, Tang Qiuli only gave a few words: "Okay, follow this plan and test your unit's record with the battle results!"

Le Yiqin's heart dropped to her stomach. In the next few days, the entire Southern Flying Group was busy nervously for this unprecedented operation. After receiving the order to attack, the fleet flew from Nanning.

The three airports in Kunming and Myitkyina took off at the same time. After converging in the Mandalay airspace, they were divided into two echelons according to the plan and flew towards the Andaman Sea.

The militant commander, Major General Le Yiqin, led the first echelon of fighter jets without hesitation. This was the first time he fought against the Japanese carrier-based aircraft. How could he give up such an opportunity? He looked around the airspace, looked at the time, and then

In an hour and a half, we will be able to engage in firefights with the Japs. "All formations, please be aware that the fleet will climb to altitude immediately before passing through the Bago airspace." He issued the order.

Just as Le Yiqin was about to push the control stick, the airborne radar suddenly made a beeping sound. He quickly observed that six small bright spots appeared on the radar screen, flying towards his fleet at a fast speed.

.

Le Yiqin immediately judged, "This is a carrier-based aircraft that took off from the Japs' aircraft carrier. It should be on a reconnaissance mission. Isn't this Kiyoshi Hasegawa simple?" He thought to himself, six Japs' planes were stuck between his teeth.

It's not enough, but it's a big trouble for the entire fleet. --over-->
