My Third Empire

Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

Fifty-six Yamamoto looked at the information he had just sent, which was tantamount to tapping it hard in his heart. For the first time, Nanyun Zhongyi ’s carrier-based aircraft suffered such heavy losses during the offensive, which also made Yamamoto 56 feel for the first time that the war seemed impossible to win.

This marshal who led the Japanese navy to an unprecedented splendor, now suddenly has a thought of not returning. He looked at the terrible figures on the report, and unconsciously sweat was in his palm.

There is no doubt that Sato's fighter unit won. Forty U.S. aircraft were shot down by a total of 24. This is in any case due to the bravery and tenacity of the Japanese Navy ’s carrier aircraft unit. They had no rest time for several days in a row. These pilots were exhausted, and sometimes even fell asleep after stopping the plane on the deck.

However, they still achieved a proud record. 30 zero fighters against 40 American p-40s still achieved amazing results in shooting down 24 aircraft. However, while shooting down opponents this time, the Japanese also paid a heavy price. 11 Japanese aircraft were shot down, and 11 highly skilled Japanese fighter pilots could no longer continue to fight for the empire.

For the first time, Yamamoto felt that the air dominance issue was a little tricky. His battleship fleet had to abandon his plan to pursue the US fleet, because General Kurida was afraid that his battleship force would be attacked by US Navy carrier aircraft.

General Nan Yunzhong was also stubborn. Without Yamamoto ’s consent, he pushed his aircraft carrier fleet 20 kilometers east, hoping to bite the US fleet to continue the attack. Even he himself sent a letter to 56. In the telegraph, he said sincerely: "Marshal Yamamoto, although our army suffered some losses, on the whole it still occupies a certain advantage and initiative. I urge you to agree that the fleet will fight the US Navy here. , World War I decided the life and death of the imperial navy! I will be with Nan Yunzhong and the aircraft carrier Akagi. Long live His Majesty the Emperor!

This telegram was sent with Sato's battle report, which shows that Nan Yunzhong was planning to let go. Japan ’s four fleet carriers have been pressed against the US fleet. The Japanese navy still has an advantage in the number of ships and aviation units, but the gap between the two sides has indeed narrowed to negligible levels.

"Australia is really a tasteless rib." Yamamoto 56 sighed. If the attack on Darwin had caused the dispersion of the Japanese navy's strength, the Japanese fleet near Pearl Harbor is now in a much better position. However, the plan for reinforcement of Darwin Port was also proposed by the Navy Department of Military Affairs. After all, Japanese high-level officials hope to obtain a permanent large port in Australia to store the offensive strategic materials.

The Japanese Navy ’s plan is that once the Darwin port is captured, Australian iron ore can be continuously transported to Japan, allowing the Japanese shipbuilding industry to advance by leaps and bounds and lay a solid material foundation for the complete control of the entire Pacific Ocean. However, a division of soldiers at the extreme distance directly caused the Japanese navy to ride a tiger.

It is not impossible to drive away this fleet of the United States. If you fight for the loss and even eat this American fleet, Yamamoto knows that once you do this, the joint fleet will be completely finished. Americans will see a weak Japan in intelligence. The capture of Hawaii will definitely not end the war, but will make the United States more firm in its belief in war.

Yamamoto knew that the Japanese Navy and Army were incapable of attacking the United States, and even if the entire US Navy army wiped out a ship, the Japanese Army did not have the courage to send hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers to the east coast of the United States, and millions of American soldiers and Thousands of tanks fought a protracted war.

Last time, China, which provoked a great power that could not keep up with one-tenth of the United States, had already carried a heavy burden that the Japanese could not shake off. Nowadays, it really has no courage to face a country like the United States on the vast territory. . If it is arrogant to challenge the world with one country, it is absolutely suicidal to challenge the world with one country such as Japan.

Two days ago, Yamamoto attended the memorial ceremony of the Japanese naval aviation pilot on the deck of the aircraft carrier Akagi. More than ten days of battle cost the Japanese Navy the precious lives of 32 pilots. Yamamoto personally bowed to the 32 ashes, expressing his deepest condolences.

Yamamoto put down the documents in his hand and turned back and said to his staff: "Japan is too small, so small that it is a bit desperate. Every pilot is a valuable asset of the Japanese Empire. If we lose too much troops here, Then, everything in the Great Japanese Empire is over! "

"But, Marshal, if we do not choose a decisive battle at this moment ... then, over 40,000 soldiers on Oahu and Kauai, and the army of the two divisions, will be all over." The staff said with a bow "The humble people believe that as soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire, they should not back down now."

"Yes, Marshal! The soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire should not flinch!" Another officer also bowed his head behind Yamamoto: "We should be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor! Decide to fight without fear!"

"General Nanyun is right, we should fight to the death! Since General Nanyun is sure to wipe out the US fleet, we have no reason to retreat!" Another staff officer also said: "Always try, otherwise, Marshal your decision It will be talked about by domestic officials! "

Yamamoto thought a little nervously, and then said, "Order Nanyun, continue to search and pursue the US fleet! Strive to destroy this US Navy!"

He paused and continued to say: "Telegraph the General Futian on the island and ask him if he can end the battle within 24 hours. If he can guarantee the end of the battle within 24 hours, I am determined to be here with the United States. The naval decisive battle. If he fails to win in time, the navy will not be able to secure sea power! "

"My Excellency Marshal!" A staff member wanted to persuade him again, but his words were quickly interrupted by Yamamoto.

Yamamoto waved his hand: "No more persuasion! I have made a decision! No changes are allowed! Go for it!" He spoke with a firm tone, as if he had made up his mind that he would retreat immediately after World War I.

Nan Yunzhong sent a third wave of aircraft attack troops when Yamamoto struggled to retreat. This time he was desperate and dispatched torpedo attack aircraft and horizontal bombers without air supremacy. I really do n’t blame him for breaking the boat like this, because he saw the withdrawal of His Excellency Marshal from the message from Yamamoto.

The first wave of attack on Sato's headquarters took off and shot down 24 US P-40 fighters at the cost of 11 Zero fighters. The second time, the Japanese Navy Air Force dispatched a total of 50 Zeros, and once again engaged in fierce fighting with the US Navy ’s fighter forces. The two sides fought for more than 15 minutes, and the results made the Japanese suffer for a long time.

Regardless of dissuasion, Sato once again flew out of the plane. This time he achieved the first victory of the day, but his wingman was also shot down by the American pilot. The battle loss ratio of the two sides reached 10 to 12, and the American fighter was only more Two were shot down. But the final battle result was that Japan shot down 21 US Navy aircraft at the cost of 13 aircraft.

Nan Yunzhong was finally scared by this terrible combat data. He lost a total of 24 aircraft in a day, and they were all the most advanced zero fighter jets of the Japanese Navy. This made Nan Yunzhong almost heartbroken. You have to know that in a few days of fighting, he has lost 37 pilots, and now 24 people have died in battle. This is definitely bad news for the Japanese Navy, which lacks pilots.

"Baga Yalu! Baga!" Nan Yun dropped his beloved cup on the command bridge, lost 61 elite navy pilots in less than ten days, and damaged about 40 zeros. Fighters and various other aircraft. This made Nan Yun feel so distressed that Japan had never lost so many planes in a short period of time since it invaded Shanghai, China.

"The soldiers killed are the best soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire! These soldiers are the best pilots in the world!" Nan Yun Zhongyi, as an important representative of the Japanese naval aviation, certainly knows the importance of the soldiers in his hands. . The aircraft was destroyed and could be replenished, but for Japan, the pilot is almost a rare resource that cannot be replenished.

"U.S. bombers appeared outside the fleet! Our army ’s aircraft was battling with it, and it had shot down two enemy planes!" An intelligence officer walked quickly to Nan Yun Zhongyi and reported on the situation that had just happened. The Americans were not After being blindly beaten, they also sent their own counterattack troops, but the results of these counterattack troops were not significant.

Just a few minutes ago, a Japanese light cruiser was hit by a bomb dropped by a U.S. aircraft. The captain and more than 40 officers and soldiers died in battle. Half an hour ago, a destroyer was also wounded and could only be ordered to return to Japan for repair.

Soon, the radio sent back the news that Nan Yun wanted to see, that is, the Japanese attack aircraft had achieved results, and a bomb hit a US aircraft carrier. However, because the battlefield was very chaotic, the Japanese pilot did not confirm which American carrier was hit.

"Good!" Nan Yun clenched his fists confidently: "Prepare for the next wave of planes! The American fleet was defeated in one fell swoop!"

"General!" The officer who sent the information whispered: "We lost 29 planes ... and we continue to take off the plane to attack, is it too risky?"

"..." Nan Yun froze for a moment, and then suddenly felt the world turn around.
