Age of Conquest Reborn

Faced with such words, especially when the person delivering the message was a guy who relied on nepotism and held the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel, and could only flatter and flatter others, Lieutenant General Xixuan and General Qingshui were furious and felt extremely insulted.

, but I can only endure it.∑

They did not dare to challenge the high-spirited new commander. Now, the old man of the former United Fleet, burdened with the infamy of defeat, could not hold his head up within the Imperial Navy. If the Navy had not been unable to find him for a while,

Whether he is the right candidate and whether he can keep his position is still unknown!

The hearts of Lieutenant General Xixuan and General Qingshui were filled with shadows. Based on their previous experience in dealing with the independent division fleet, they absolutely did not believe that the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli would allow such a large fleet to be loaded with military supplies.

The troop transport ship formation of supplies successfully arrived at the east coast of Australia to supply the Australian Front Army, and then loaded up the Imperial Army soldiers and retreated to the mainland.

At noon that day, the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet escorted a huge formation of troop carriers and arrived in the waters of the Solomon Islands. Commander Okubo sat in the command cabin of the flagship and looked at Commander Tada of the 49th Air Force on Honiara Island.

The telegram sent by Colonel made me frown.

"Your Excellency, Commander, since this morning, Honiara has been attacked by a large group of China's land-based aviation forces coming from the direction of Irian Island. The fighting is fierce, but the field airport has not been damaged yet!" This is Tada.

The entire contents of the telegram sent by Colonel.

From this telegram, Commander Okubo did not see any danger. He was dissatisfied that the 49th Air Force was entangled by China's land-based fighter group. Once a naval battle broke out, it was very likely that he would not be able to count on it. Of course,

, he did not think that the fleet would reach the east coast of Australia in less than two days. What unexpected things would happen?

However, Commander Okubo was too confident. He did not know that just over 200 kilometers away from him, the independent division fleet was rushing towards him at full speed, and a decisive naval battle was about to break out.

Five hours later, the distance between the two fleets further approached, reaching the attack range of the carrier-based aircraft. The smile on Tang Qiuquan's face became stronger and stronger, and he said to Chief of Staff Xin Xiguo: "Order, the fleet will immediately reply to radio contact.

Turn on the shipboard radar and search for the specific location of the Japanese fleet. The carrier-based aircraft are ready to attack and send a telegram to Le Yiqin to attack the Japanese land-based airports in Honiara and Yal'an!"

Colonel Tada, who had just been commanding fighter jets in the control tower and repelled the attack of the Independent Division aircraft group, suddenly heard countless unfamiliar call signs on the monitoring radio. They were dense and frequent, and concentrated in one direction. He was a man who knew what he was talking about.

, know what this means. A large fleet suddenly appeared in the waters of the Solomon Islands, it must be the fleet of the China Independent Division.

Colonel Tada's face suddenly turned pale, and he suddenly realized why Honiara had been harassed endlessly by the China Independent Division's land-based aviation group for more than a week.

"Communications officer!" Colonel Tada shouted in a changed tone: "Immediately send a telegram to the commander of the combined fleet, Lieutenant General Okubo, urgent. The China Independent Division fleet was found about 200 kilometers west of Honiara. Direction

This is exactly where the Imperial Navy’s fleet is now!”

"Commander, there is a land-based aircraft group of the China Air Force, coming in a large scale!" Just after Colonel Tada finished giving his orders, he heard the hurried report from the chief of staff. Then, he saw the China Independent Division, which was several times larger than his own.

Fighters and bombers appeared darkly over Honiara.

On the sea of ​​the Solomon Islands, Commander Okubo was in a daze while looking at the special telegram from Colonel Tada. Suddenly, he panicked. If it were a ship-to-ship naval battle, with his rich theoretical experience, he could fight it in a orderly manner.

But the despicable Chinese actually ambushed a large fleet in the waters of the Solomon Islands. He didn't know how to deal with it?

It was the chief of staff who reminded him, "Commander, regardless of whether Colonel Tada's telegram is true or not, the fleet should enter combat mode, report the situation to Lieutenant General Xixuan and General Shimizu, and then send out reconnaissance planes to conduct reconnaissance and verify the situation.

!”

"Yes! Yes!" Commander Okubo completely followed the advice of the Chief of Staff. When Vice Admiral Hosuan and Admiral Shimizu received the telegram forwarded by the Combined Fleet Headquarters, their faces immediately turned pale...

The reconnaissance aircraft of the Japanese combined fleet had just taken off, and the first wave of carrier-based aircraft groups of the independent division fleet had already flown into the sky. At the same time, Aaron Island and Honiara were violently attacked by the land-based aircraft groups of the independent division.

...

Tang Qiuquan commanded the fleet and had a well-planned attack direction. He used the sharp attacks of carrier-based aircraft and part of the fighter group of the land-based aviation mixed combat brigade to continuously force the Japanese combined fleet to evade in the direction of Irian Island. After three hours of fierce fighting, the Japanese army

The losses of the combined fleet were not fatal enough, but its route had seriously deviated and was getting closer and closer to the waters near Irian Island.

Sulawesi Island, Southern Flying Group Headquarters, Le Yiqin looked at the telegram sent by the fleet, his eyes shone, and said to Chief of Staff He Zhijun: "Zhijun, some joint fleet of the little devils has been approached by us.

An Island, a big deal is coming. Order the 6th to 11th fighter regiments and the 3rd to 10th bomber regiments of Irian Island to attack and cooperate with the fleet to resolve the battle!"

If it were not for Irian Island and more than 300 fighter jets and more than 400 bombers from the Southern Flying Group joining the battlefield, it would not be easy for the independent division fleet to deal with the newly formed combined fleet of the Japanese Navy. The two sides would have to fight for at least two or three days.

When the more than 800 fighter planes of Cola Yiqin join the battlefield, it will be the end of the Japanese Navy's combined fleet!

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the sea of ​​the Solomon Islands, and the Japanese warships were still burning. Thick smoke floated into the sky, and the setting sun made it look as bright as blood. After a fierce battle for most of the day, the independent division fleet joined forces with the Southern Flying Group to completely defeat the enemy.

Buried the last bit of the Japanese navy's wealth - the newly formed combined fleet.

Those troop carriers loaded with military supplies became prisoners of the fleet and were escorted to the direction of Irian Island under the surveillance of warships. Of course, some unarmed troop carriers also had to show the Japanese Bushido spirit.

Unwilling to surrender, he turned on full power and crashed into him crazily, trying to perish together.

In this regard, Tang Qiuquan's order was simple, "Sink!"

On this day, in addition to the Japanese Navy's last combined fleet, which was buried on the bottom of the Solomon Islands, there were also two Japanese naval land-based air groups on Honiara Island and Aaron Island, and they were all killed.

Tang Qiuquan walked out of the flagship command cabin, came to the deck, looked at the sunset gradually sinking into the depths of the sea, and said to Xin Xiguo, the chief of staff beside him: "Xiguo, send a telegram to the division commander. With the cooperation of the Southern Aircraft Group, our fleet will

In the waters of the Solomon Islands, annihilate the Japanese naval combined fleet and capture all troop transport ships. Now, take them all to Irian Island and request instructions for the next step of action!"

That night, eight main battleships and two gunboat squadrons of the independent division fleet escorted two reinforced battalions of the Marine Corps, and landed on Aaron Island and Honiara Island respectively. After a short battle, the entire

They annihilated the remaining Japanese troops that had suffered heavy bombing and occupied the two islands mentioned above.

One day later, a transport fleet loaded with building materials and various mechanical equipment sailed to Aaron Island and Honiara Island for large-scale repair and expansion. It had been bombed into a mess. The original Japanese airport on the island

.

Tang Qiuquan attached great importance to these two important islands, which reached deep into the South Pacific, and prepared to deploy part of the fighter and bomber units of the fleet's land-based aviation mixed combat brigade to station them respectively, becoming the two extended fists of the fleet.

In the Solomon Islands naval battle, news of victory came again, which made Tang Qiuli beam with joy. The last member of the Japanese navy was finally killed. From then on, the vast Pacific Ocean was the territory where his fleet was galloping to attack the Japanese mainland.

The last obstacle has completely disappeared, how could he not be excited!

Speaking of which, the waters of the Solomon Islands are really his blessed land. First, he launched the first battle against the Japanese Navy's combined fleet, and finally buried it completely. He immediately called back to Tang Qiuquan, "Brother Qiuquan, the main task of the fleet at present is to fight in the east of Australia."

Activities along the coast to cooperate with the troops’ attack on the Japanese army on land!”

After replying the telegram to Tang Qiuquan, Tang Qiuli said to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe with a smile: "Yuhe, the complete annihilation of the Japanese naval combined fleet is a crucial victory. In a moment, you will tell the cooking team how much to add to dinner."

Let’s have a meal, get a bottle of wine, call Shanhu and you, just the three of us have a few drinks!”

Zhao Yuhe was also infected by the division commander's excitement. He smiled and called the cooking team. After putting down the phone, he said: "Division Commander, now that the Australian Japanese army has no retreat, the situation of catching turtles in the urn has been established. Is it time to launch a general offensive?

Already?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head and said slowly: "It's not yet time. There is a saying in the art of war, 'Attack the city first, attack the heart first.' The more than one million Japanese troops in the encirclement can still eat and drink for the time being. Don't worry, we can continue the siege."

After a few weeks, everything will be ready, and the troops will be able to fight with minimal casualties!"

"What's the most important thing?" Zhao Yuhe said puzzledly: "Sir, do you want to persuade Ito Yanzaburo to surrender? I think it's difficult. This old devil will not shed tears until he sees the coffin, and he still has to fight.

Only then can he get rid of his illusion! However, I am not optimistic about persuading the Japanese to surrender!"

"Persuade them to surrender!" Tang Qiuli sneered and said, "I have no interest, let alone the patience to persuade the Japanese to surrender. It's time to sing 'A Night of Misery', and leave it to Le Yiqin and Liu Cuigang!"
