Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 2679 The Destroyed Fleet
Two wings of fighter jets escorted by the Japanese army attempted to attack Huludao and Jinzhou separately, but they ran into Le Yiqin's pocket. The air force's radar stations in the western Liaoning Corridor area had long known the whereabouts of the Japanese fighter group.
Chest, Le Yiqin's tactics are to use more to attack fewer, use superior forces to surround, and annihilate them as quickly as possible. Six fighter regiments are deployed in each of the two places, almost a seven-on-one situation.
The air battle went as planned by Le Yiqin. Without much effort, two Japanese fighter wings and more than a hundred fighter jets disappeared into the independent division fighter group, like a drop of water falling into the sea, connecting the dots.
There were no waves at all, and then Le Yiqin issued an order, "The aircraft fleet will immediately move to the sea area where the Japanese escort fleet is located!"
Almost at the same time that the air battle in the airspace of the Western Liaoning Corridor began, battles broke out in the airspace of the Jeju Island Strait, the North Yellow Sea airspace, and the Bohai Sea airspace. The Japanese fighter groups that adopted relay escorts were all attacked by the independent divisions with great advantages.
The aviation fighter group attacked and surrounded them, cutting off the head, tail, and middle, and caught the Japanese escort group by surprise.
Rear Admiral Hiramiya, the commander of the Japanese escort fleet, was thinking about the safety of Rear Admiral Nakatani, the commander of the escort fighter formation who had gone to perform extraordinary feats. A heavy shadow always lingered in his heart. The troop transport formation was approaching the meeting point, but the action was not in progress.
From the perspective of Major General Ping Gong, it was incredibly slow and time seemed to have stopped.
Looking up at the blue sky of Liaodong Bay, the sky is clear and cloudless, but in this calm sky, there seems to be an unknown danger lurking. A fleet communications officer ran to Rear Admiral Ping Gong with a pale face.
With a trembling voice, he reported: "Your Excellency, Commander, I have received reports from the commanders of each wing of the escort fighter group. Starting from the Jeju Island Strait, our escort fighter formations were all besieged by the superior independent division aviation fighter group. The situation was
Very dangerous!"
"I'm afraid that our escort fighter group will be completely destroyed. The independent division aviation force dispatched at least 1,200 fighter jets to besiege our escort group in sections. In addition, after receiving reports, the wing commanded by Commander Zhonggu, in
In the airspace south of Jinzhou, we encountered a large formation of Independent Division fighter jets and were surrounded. Commander Zhonggu fought bravely and eventually died for his country!"
"It's over!" Major General Pinggong's head "bang!" The first reaction in his heart was this thought. Without the air escort force, the escort fleet that penetrated deep into the hinterland of Liaodong Bay was just a bunch of living targets. The independent division's
The land-based aviation force can effortlessly sink the entire fleet to the bottom of Liaodong Bay. There is also the independent division fleet that has never shown up. He never believes that the commander of the independent division will not use his own fleet!
"Commander, what should we do now?" the communications officer asked with a green face and white lips.
"What to do?" Rear Admiral Hiramiya has no idea at all. Now it is no longer a question of the fleet responding to the retreat of the Kwantung Army, but a question of whether his own fleet and troop transport fleet can survive. What's more, even if the Kwantung Army
The soldiers of the army were all on board. The journey of more than a thousand kilometers from Liaodong Bay to the mainland, without fighter escort, was just a bunch of moving targets on the sea, which was more conducive to the concentrated elimination of the independent division aviation and fleet!
Before the air escort fighter formation was attacked, the door of the command module was pushed open again, and an officer in charge of operations rushed in. "Report to the commander, our escort fleet has discovered that there are a large number of
The warships of the Independence Division are approaching our fleet from the direction of Lushunkou!"
"A turtle in a urn!" Such an idiom suddenly appeared in Major General Ping Gong's mind. He sailed more than a thousand kilometers from the mainland and reached Liaodong Bay, the hinterland of the Independent Division. Along the way, he did not encounter any interception by the independent division's naval fleet.
It's not that the independent division doesn't have the ability to attack, but it wants to bring its own fleet in to fight. Now, Major General Heigong completely understands what's going on!
"Convey my order. The troop carrier formation will immediately stop docking and prepare to return. The escort fleet will immediately form a formation to fight. Even if we are all broken in the end, we will fight to the end!" Rear Admiral Heigong issued the order, with desperate eyes.
, flashing fiercely
The fierce flames, although he knew that the resistance of the escort fleet would not help at all. Not only would the entire escort fleet be shattered, but these thousands of merchant ships would also become piles of scrap metal on the bottom of Liaodong Bay, but he
Still decide, keep fighting!
A roar of engines came from afar, and a fleet of aircraft appeared in the southern sky. It got closer and flew past the head of Rear Admiral Heimiya's escort fleet flagship. Under the sun, the military emblem of the independent division's carrier-based aircraft unit,
Shining, "Commander, those are carrier-based aircraft of the Independent Division, they are coming to attack us!" the fleet operations officer exclaimed.
What is strange is that the carrier-based aircraft of the Independence Division fleet did not attack the warships, but immediately, Major General Heigong knew why. On the coastline of the Western Liaoning Corridor, the boarding trestle built by the Kwantung Army soldiers with great effort was violently attacked.
The bombing and strafing, the explosions roared, and the makeshift trestle was blown up, and sawdust flew everywhere.
Just at this time, Lieutenant General Kashii, the highest commander of the Kwantung Army in the western Liaoning battlefield, received a telegram, angrily asking Major General Heimiya, "Why did the troop transport stop docking? Is it because Commander Heimiya wants to disobey the General Staff of the base camp?"
Order to put more than 500,000 Kwantung Army soldiers to death?"
Rear Admiral Heimiya had no thought or energy to deal with this idiot. The carrier-based aircraft of the Independent Navy Fleet had already begun bombing the pier on the beach. Didn't Kashii see it and send such a stupid telegram?
"Boom, boom, boom!" A series of explosions rang out around Rear Admiral Hiramiya's flagship, sending water columns rising into the sky. Several independent division warships appeared in sight. "Fleet strikes back!" Rear Admiral Hiramiya issued the order.
The warships of both sides began to fight at sea. In terms of tonnage, speed, and firepower, Rear Admiral Hiramiya's escort fleet and the independent division naval fleet were not in the same weight class. The exchange of fire took less than ten minutes. Rear Admiral Hiramiya's
The flagship was beaten with fireworks everywhere. As for the other Japanese warships, they were also beaten until they were covered in smoke, and they were almost unable to fight back!
Colonel Tang Yunfei, commander of the independent division fleet's carrier-based aircraft unit, personally piloted a fighter plane and directed a devastating attack on the Kwantung Army's seaside trestle. According to the order, the carrier-based aircraft unit was not allowed to conduct air strikes against the Kwantung Army's troops on the shore.
After the trestle was blown into a pile of rotten wood, he looked at the piles of Kwantung Army soldiers on the shore. Tang Yunfei swallowed his saliva and gave the order, "Attention aircraft, immediately turn to attack the Japanese escort fleet!"
The fighters and bombers of the carrier-based aircraft formation turned around and pounced on the Japanese warship, which was covered in smoke and was on fire. The joint sea and air strikes doomed the Japanese fleet that broke into Liaodong Bay to its fate. One ship after another,
The Japanese warship exploded and caught fire, and soon sank to the bottom of the sea.
On the flagship that was already leaning heavily, Rear Admiral Hiramiya drafted a telegram to the Navy Ministry, "The Ministry commanded the fleet and the troop carrier formation, which penetrated deep into the waters of Liaodong Bay and were suddenly attacked by the powerful combined forces of the independent division, navy and air force. The escort was
The fighter formation was also attacked by the same attack, and the battle was fierce. Now, the escort fighter formation has suffered heavy losses, and the commander of the formation, Major General Nakatani, is in pieces!"
"Most of the warships in our escort fleet have been sunk by the warships of the Independent Division. The Ministry of Staff knows that this evacuation of the surrounded Kwantung Army troops in the western Liaoning area will never be completed, and it is impossible to complete the escort fleet and troop ship formations.
, it is difficult to return to the homeland. The staff knows that they are outmatched, so they can only fight to the death to live up to the honor of the Imperial Navy!"
Originally, Major General Heigong wanted to vent his inner anger in the telegram, but he just didn't understand that such a self-defeating action sent thousands of merchant ships, a fleet, and more than a dozen fighter jets to the enemy.
It was the decision made by that bastard that got into the mouth of the independent division troops. He knew that he was going to die, but he still insisted on carrying it out. It was a typical idiot and bastard's approach!
However, in the end, Major General Heigong did not add these words in the telegram. He knew that once he wrote these words in the telegram, he would bring death to his relatives and family in the country, so he issued such an order,
Only the big guys in the Navy Ministry had this power. He didn't know that this was the result of Emperor Hirohito's insistence.
In the warship that was smoking everywhere, the radio operator sent the last telegram. Ten minutes later, with several huge explosions, three carrier-based bombers of the Independent Division dropped three heavy aviation bombs onto the
On Major General Heimiya's flagship "Naniwa", huge flames shot into the sky, and the independent division warships in the distance also poured out strings of large-caliber naval gun shells.
After the explosion, Rear Admiral Heigong and his flagship sank into the dark seabed of Liaodong Bay. More than an hour later, the last Japanese warship was turned into a pile of burning fire and sank to the bottom of the sea.
, the Japanese escort fleet was completely wiped out, and the remaining thousands of merchant ships became lambs to be slaughtered!
Incheon, Korean Peninsula, at the Joint Naval and Air Force Command of the Independent Division, Fleet Chief of Staff Major General Xin Xiguo came in excitedly and said to Tang Qiuquan and Liu Cuigang: "Commander, Commander Liu, great news! I received the battle report from Commander Le.
, the Japanese escort aircraft group was almost completely wiped out by the staged attacks of our aviation fighter group, and only a dozen or so Japanese fighter planes escaped back to Kyushu Island, Japan!"
"The fleet frontline command reported that after more than two hours of fighting, our fleet sank all fifty-eight Japanese escort fleet warships, and surrounded the Japanese troop transport formations and thousands of merchant ships in the waters of Liaodong Bay. The fleet command
Please ask the Ministry for instructions on how to deal with these Japanese merchant ships?"
Tang Qiuquan didn't look too happy. It was an expected result. He didn't know if the Japanese were kicked in the head by a donkey. They sent such a fleet and troop transport fleet to come all the way to die!
