All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

After the last F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter landed safely, entered the ground airport, and was sent to a small space by the ground crew to undergo post-war maintenance, Ye Baicai stayed at the war situation center and paid attention to this night air raid. He let out a long breath.

With the current level of science and technology, it is actually not easy to carry out large-scale night bombing, especially since the Chinese fleet has never experienced such a war. When it attacked the pirate island before, although it was also a night bombing, the scale was too small. The number of carrier-based aircraft dispatched was also too small, and the difficulties in all aspects were much less than this time.

As the commander of the Chinese fleet, Ye Bai was naturally worried. He didn't know if there would be any unexpected changes, or if the losses to the troops were too heavy, so he stayed in the battle center waiting for the final result.

"Nimitz, aren't you going to send out a second wave of attacks?"

In Ye Bai's view, since the first night bombing achieved quite good results, we should continue our efforts and continue a new round of bombing to completely blow up the ground airport of Island No. 308 and destroy its defense force. The result is The combat center waited for a while. Not only did Nimitz have no intention of sending out a second attack wave, but he ordered the returning pilots to eat and rest. He probably did not intend to continue the attack.

Nimitz shook his head and said:"Commander, this bombing can only be regarded as a training exercise to catch the opponent off guard. The damage on the island has not been reported yet, but I estimate that the loss will not be too great."

"It would be great if we could blow up some of the opponent's carrier-based aircraft. What really prevented our fleet from attacking the island was not only the air power, but also the coastal defense artillery fortresses. The bombing in the 753rd night did not cause any damage to them."

Actually, Nimitz had something he didn't say. In addition to bombing military targets, factories and manufacturing plants with hematopoietic functions are also very important for this kind of large-scale bombing. It's just that Ye Bai only wanted to completely occupy No. 308. The island does not want to be blown into ruins, but is still waiting to use these factories to start construction quickly after the war.

In this way, in the dark environment, there is no point in continuing the bombing in addition to wasting ammunition. The coastal defense artillery fortress does not fire. , not even a bombing target could be found. Several carrier-based aircraft on the ground were either pushed into hangars with stronger defenses at this time, or had been urgently transferred, and there was little point in continuing the bombing.

Factories, etc. When important facilities cannot be moved, continue to dispatch carrier-based aircraft to blow up something, blow up the air. Instead of wasting ammunition and consuming the pilots' physical strength and energy, it is better to let them have a good rest and wait until dawn before dispatching.

As a subordinate, Nimi Of course, I will not directly say that it is because your thoughts, Commander, have restricted my hands and feet, and many methods cannot be used. Instead, I just find a reason and get through it.

Of course, the reason Nimitz gave It was not enough, and Ye Bai felt a little pale, but after thinking about it, he did not continue to ask more questions, because he believed that Nimitz, regardless of his achievements in his previous life, was also rated as a naval marshal by the system in the world of navigation. He is a great master, and his abilities are many times stronger than that of a dabbler like him. A huge fleet of aircraft was dispatched collectively and launched a large-scale night bombing, but the nearby players were so excited that they thought there would be another outbreak. It was a fierce battle, and I wanted to turn on all the lights so I could see the excitement more clearly.

As a result, the bombing operation ended quickly, and according to the reports from the players on Island 308, it didn’t seem too intense. It feels a little bit anticlimactic, just like that time when the climax is about to reach, but the result suddenly stops, which really makes people almost vomit blood.

But neither the player nor Nimitz actually knows, Even if the bombing effect is not good, the losses on Island No. 308 are actually not light.

In order to organize defense as quickly as possible, especially to build an air defense network, Island No. 308 will use a large part of the carrier-based aircraft. It was placed directly on the flat ground around the airport runway.

A considerable number of carrier-based aircraft also filled part of the fuel and ammunition in the fuel tank, in order to save the time of replenishing fuel and ammunition, and to enable these carrier-based aircraft to fly faster. The plane took off and took off.

Those who killed No. 308 Island would not have thought that the carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese fleet would actually launch a night attack. In their experience, without equipped with airborne radar, it is not Night bombing cannot be carried out, but the difficulty is quite high, and it is basically a small-scale bombing. These carrier-based aircraft stored outside the hangar were blown to pieces in this large-scale bombing, and a large number of ground crews tried their best to rescue them. , only a small part could be rescued, which made people want to cry without tears.

In fact, it was also the benefit brought by Ye Bai's idea of ​​​​wanting to get a complete island. There were too many carrier-based aircraft sent, but the target was attacked. But it is relatively limited, which allows more carrier-based aircraft to carry out repeated bombings on the same target.

Under repeated bombings, even if these carrier-based aircraft were lucky enough to escape the first round of bombing, they would definitely not be able to escape the second round of bombing, or even the third round of bombing, and would eventually be completely destroyed.

This is also the reason why Nimitz did not dispatch or even prepare a second round of attack aircraft. More than 500 carrier-based aircraft bombed several targets repeatedly. Each target withstood greater bombing intensity, and the bombing effect was not the same. It is no less than multiple batches of repeated bombings, and it gives the enemy a shorter reaction and response time, and the losses may be even greater, typically several times at a time.

The Speaker almost without any hesitation rejected the suggestion of some members to immediately dispatch carrier-based aircraft to counterattack the Chinese fleet.

After experiencing this night attack, the chief of parliament (cjeg) believed that the Chinese fleet's carrier-based aircraft group should be equipped with airborne radar before they dared to carry out a night bombing mission of this scale.

At this time, the carrier-based aircraft units are dispatched to retaliate against the Chinese fleet. With the assistance of airborne radars, their carrier-based aircraft will become targets and be shot down one by one. The air power that has already suffered heavy losses cannot withstand such a torment..

If his guess was wrong, the ships of the Chinese fleet were not equipped with airborne radars. It was just a simple adventure to scare them and make them choose to surrender.

For Island No. 308, this is actually a good thing, because the attack fleet of the Chinese fleet will suffer considerable losses due to reasons such as getting lost, so they will not suffer too much.

The Speaker set the tone directly. Because of the sudden night bombing, the MPs who rushed in had nothing to say and turned around and left.

However, the faces of these congressmen were not very good-looking. Some of them even had a different kind of light shining in their eyes. Some people's feet were shaking when they walked. Many congressmen were frightened.

These congressmen originally thought they had high enough regard for the Chinese fleet. However, a night attack allowed them to once again increase the strength of the Chinese fleet by more than one level. However, this time the level of improvement was not based on hard power, but on technology. Soft power.

Airborne radar, this thing is not so easy to develop. The new round of world trials has only just begun, but all the forces have returned to their original state, and everything needs to be started all over again.

How could any force be able to make a great leap forward in science and technology in such a short period of time, not only developing underwater weapons such as submarines, but also developing airborne radars?

To some extent, these technological levels are even more difficult than improving the performance of warships and developing new warships. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Since the opponent's technological level has developed to such an extent, what kind of force should be able to defeat them? Thinking of this, the congressmen were really silent..

The congressmen with different thoughts walked away very quickly, and they did not even think of discussing the next response plan with the speaker.

Although the performance of these congressmen gave the Speaker a headache, he had to brace himself and quickly issued orders one after another.

The first is that a large number of back gunners quickly enter the air defense positions, count the casualties and damage, check the remaining air defense weapons, and quickly organize new air defense forces to prepare for a new round of large-scale bombing that the Chinese fleet may launch.

The ground airport also began to take action. The first priority was to put out the fire that was still burning. The damaged carrier-based aircraft could no longer be taken care of at this time. If the ground airport was allowed to continue burning, there would be no need for any ground fire. Guidance is directly the obvious bombing target.[]

The blackout of the entire island is still continuing, and a large number of personnel from intelligence agencies have been mobilized to conduct searches all over the island. The reason why the losses in this night attack were so large are because of those who mixed up on the island and gave the attack aircraft group The intelligence personnel who provide ground guidance are closely related. If these rats are not found, they may cause even greater losses in the future.

It's just a pity that the intelligence department of the Chinese fleet has naturally improved a lot in all aspects after Heydrich took office. Corresponding plans were already made before the start of this mission.

Before the bombing started, the agents on the mission had already moved quickly, either hiding in a safe house prepared in advance, or making full use of their cover identities under the cover of their companions.

There are even two Type XXI submarines parked on a certain coast. They hide here under the cover of night to assist the evacuation of intelligence personnel when necessary.

The MPs and even the Speaker of the Island No. 308 have forgotten that they lack anti-submarine capabilities and do not have much ability to infiltrate submarines. The seemingly perfect port defense is simply useless to those submarines that are diving underwater. There are holes everywhere, they just come and go.

That is to say, the submarine formation has not received Nimitz's order, otherwise a large number of submarines can easily sneak into the port under the cover of night and attack the warships parked on the dock..
