Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1628 The Elegy of the U.S. Navy

An accidental factor on the battlefield can change the outcome of the battle. For the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet, there are too many accidental factors, from the reconnaissance plane not detecting the Japanese incoming fleet to a fatal Japanese fighter jet crashing into it.

In the control tower, God no longer favors the Americans.

The command structure of the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet was completely destroyed by a dying Japanese fighter jet. All fleet commanders, including Fleet Commander Lieutenant General Fullwood, were reduced to a pile of debris at the moment of the explosion.

Fly ashes, don't even have time to be afraid!

The fallen General Fullwood and his fleet subordinates did not see that just behind the attacked fleet, more than a hundred Japanese warships appeared on the sea level, and they were getting closer and closer.

The officers on the US warship behind could see through their telescopes the thick black gun barrels slowly raised on the Japanese warship!

All fleet commanders were killed. The other warships of the Pacific Fleet did not know that, but the rising black smoke and flames on the flagship "McKinn" had a very great psychological impact on them, that is,

This means that not a single warship in the entire fleet was spared from being attacked by Japanese aircraft!

Admiral Yamamoto, holding a telescope, stood on the command tower of the flagship "Nagato", looking at the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke and the fleet carrier-based aircraft attacking bravely in the sky. A feeling of passion and pride spread instantly.

All over his body, he was proud of the powerful force of the Japanese Empire, and his blood was boiling for the fearless fighting spirit of the warriors of the Yamato nation!

Another U.S. Navy Pacific Fleet ended in his own hands. Their fate was already sealed. Yamamoto calmly ordered: "The fleet will deploy into a battle formation to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The battle must end within an hour!"

"

More than a hundred Japanese warships pounced on them like hungry wolves, more than twice as many in number, and they were full of vigor and murderous intent. There were more than 200 fighter jets in the sky, a three-dimensional attack by sea and air forces. The shells of naval guns,

Flying like raindrops towards the U.S. warships belching smoke and flames, a naval battle progressed to the end and turned into a one-sided massacre and performance.

An hour later, the main force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet completely disappeared from the East Pacific Ocean. The surging seawater submerged more than fifty warships of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The sea and sky have returned to calm. If it were not for the struggle on the sea,

Howling U.S. sailors, covered in oil and faint blood, no one could know that just now, a sea battle that determined the comparison of naval power between the United States and Japan ended with the main force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet being annihilated!

The battle is over. It ended with a complete victory for the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet. Admiral Yamamoto is proud of it. The two U.S. Navy Pacific Fleets were in his hands. But now, he is frowning slightly. After the battle, he is still

The sound of gunfire could only mean one thing. Japanese soldiers, according to their own custom, were massacring American sailors who fell into the water.

General Yamamoto couldn't stand the soldiers' behavior. In his opinion, the enemy that had been completely defeated was not worth wasting bullets and artillery shells. Even if they were lucky enough to return to their homeland, the shadow of defeat would be

Accompanying them throughout their lives, the fear they convey will also be the myth of the invincibility of the Imperial Japanese Navy. This is much more meaningful than destroying their army!

This time, Chief of Staff Matsuda accurately sensed the commander's inner thoughts and said: "Commander, do you want to give an order to stop what the soldiers are doing?" After saying that, he looked at General Yamamoto's face and then looked at the sea.

The floating corpses of U.S. sailors were hit by bullets, and the blood appeared. The Imperial sailors, who were obviously in the pleasure of killing, looked at them with admiration!

General Yamamoto shook his head. In the face of the passed down habits, even he was powerless. There is such a tradition within the Imperial Army and Navy. If we want to trace the source, we must start from the beginning of this century, during the Russo-Japanese War.

I'm not arrogant enough to go against the entire tradition. It's not because I have a conscience or I have a very humanitarian spirit. I just feel that there is a more effective way than destroying the bodies of the defeated!

Unable to stop it, they could only acquiesce. After the victory, the soldiers needed a way to express their victory. However, General Yamamoto was obviously not interested in this. He withdrew his gaze from the sea where the massacre was taking place.

More than 20 minutes later, Yamamoto said to Chief of Staff Matsuda: "That's enough. Order the fleet to retreat fifty nautical miles at full speed in a combat posture. All carrier-based aircraft will land immediately, replenish fuel and ammunition, and prepare for the next attack.

Wave your opponent!"

Chief of Staff Matsuda was suddenly startled and asked: "Commander, you mean the American land-based aircraft fleet?" He could not believe that the commander, who had just achieved such a result, actually had more to fight against the American land-based aircraft fleet.

Where does his attention and self-confidence come from?

Yamamoto smiled proudly and said: "That's right. In less than an hour, the American land-based aircraft fleet will arrive. Now that they are here, there is no need to go back! My carrier-based aircraft fuel and ammunition

It's sufficient. The Americans' land-based aircraft fleet can fly long distances and last as long as they can in an air battle. It's another gift from the Americans to the combined fleet!"

After retreating, the Japanese Navy's combined fleet was ready. The first wave of carrier-based fighter jets had been pushed to the take-off deck. The propellers were rotating at a low speed. Once ordered, they could immediately take off into the air, even after battle losses.

, the number of carrier-based aircraft of the Combined Fleet is still equivalent to the number of land-based fighter jets of the US military.

The Japanese pilots sitting in the cabin exuded the fierce momentum after a great victory. In their eyes, there was a strong murderous aura after the bloodshed. The great image of General Yamamoto has penetrated into the hearts of every Japanese pilot. They all

I firmly believe that as long as it is a battle arranged by General Yamamoto, there will be only one final result, and that is victory! A glorious victory that best reflects the force of the Imperial Japanese Navy!

More than a dozen reconnaissance planes flew in the direction of the U.S. land-based aircraft group. The entire combined fleet was like a samurai sword full of blood, exuding a fierce murderous aura, ready to tear any enemy into pieces at any time!

The 23rd Fighter Wing of the U.S. Air Force, which takes off from the Singha Air Force Base in Los Angeles, is a reinforced wing with more than 160 of the latest fighter jets. Among the fighter wings of the U.S. Air Force, it ranks among the strongest.

Among the top five, however, like all U.S. Air Force fighter wings in 1941, there was a huge shortcoming.

In the entire wing, less than one-sixth of the pilots have experienced air combat, and the rest are novices who have never seen blood. Colonel Wighamman, the wing leader, was heartbroken after receiving the order from the Air Force Ministry.

How to fight a long-distance flight with a bunch of novices?

When he was still more than forty minutes away from the naval battle battlefield, Colonel Wighammann received the telegram sent by the Pacific Fleet flagship "McKinn" before it sank. The content of the telegram made him feel all over.

His hair exploded, "What happened? The entire fleet has lost more than 90% of its warships. That means that the Pacific Fleet has almost been completely wiped out!"

If there were carrier-based aircraft from the Pacific Fleet to cooperate, our wing would still be confident that it could compete with the Japanese Navy's carrier-based aircraft. However, the two aircraft carriers and all the carrier-based aircraft sank to the bottom of the sea, and the number of Japanese aircraft was far behind.

The comparison suddenly became not optimistic. Colonel Wighammann hesitated, and after discussing with several group captains, he made the decision that the regiment could not take risks and rush to the battlefield where the situation was unknown.

Moreover, even if they arrive, I am afraid that the entire Pacific Fleet has been wiped out. The rescue operation of the 23rd Wing has lost any meaning. They must all return home immediately! More than 160 U.S. land-based fighter jets are on the way.

A beautiful arc was drawn in the blue sky, and it turned around and flew back. The Japanese reconnaissance plane that arrived only saw the back of the US aircraft.

General Yamamoto, who received the report, was very regretful. He was even a little disappointed. What could have been the ending of a winning streak was lost like this. He could not judge why the more than 160 land-based fighter jets of the US Air Force were lost.

Will you turn around and leave?

If it were a land-based aviation wing of the empire, when faced with this situation, it would never be like the Americans who would pounce on them desperately. Even if the entire army was wiped out in the end, they would still have their hands full of compatriots and soldiers.

The enemy who sheds the blood of his comrades will strike with the fiercest and heaviest blow.

Putting away his thoughts, Admiral Yamamoto ordered: "The fleet immediately sailed to the waters near Hawaii Island to rendezvous with the first aircraft carrier formation. Rear Admiral Masa Kagecho should have ended the hunt. That area of ​​​​the sea will be covered with the blood of more than 60,000 American soldiers.

, dyed bright red, the sea will be filled with the corpses of American soldiers. From the bottom of my heart, I don’t like to see that! Report the results of the battle to the base camp and the Navy Department!"

On the other side of the ocean, in Guangzhou, China, in the office of the ** Division Commander Tang Qiuli at the Guangzhou Garrison District Headquarters, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, Major General, knocked on the door and came in with a telegram.

Tang Qiuli looked at Zhao Yuhe's face and had already made a guess. Sure enough, Zhao Yuhe said: "Commander, I just received an urgent telegram from the Director of the Intelligence Division. The naval battle between the Japanese and American fleets in the Eastern Pacific will begin in ten minutes."

It ended before the end, just as you expected, the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet was completely annihilated, and more than 60,000 U.S. Army soldiers were buried at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean!"

"However, according to the telegram from the Intelligence Office, the naval battle battlefield is divided into two places. The distance between the battlefields is less than sixty nautical miles. Division Commander, why is this happening?"
