The Third Reich

Chapter 984: Take off early

One second to remember【】, provide you with wonderful novel reading.

Time goes back a few hours.

On the Pacific Ocean, blue waves rippling.

The waves slapped the warships. The front end of the warship split the waves and sailed towards the west. This fleet consists of more than a dozen warships. The most central one is the large aircraft carrier that goes straight to the deck, Sarato. plus.

This time, they were all for revenge on the islanders. In the middle and back section of the deck, the B-25 bombers were neatly arranged there, looking majestic and solemn.

On the bridge, Doolittle looked at these bombers, feeling a little bit in his heart, their bombing this time will surely go down in history!

After more than two months of practice, they finally tamed the B-25 and could take off on the small deck of the aircraft carrier. The country is still immersed in the grief and anger of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and their bombing will be extremely The earth boosts domestic morale!

He turned his gaze and looked at the busy naval personnel on the bridge. Doolittle quarreled with them about getting his plane on board because they refused to let the last bomber board on the ship, thinking that there was not enough space on the deck. And Doolittle argued **** reason, and he didn't come up until a moment before departure.

The one who argued with him was the lieutenant admiral who was smoking a cigar, William Halsey, nicknamed "Bull Bull", a famous navy.

"Jimmy, we are still 650 kilometers away from the mainland of the island country." At this moment, General Halsey spoke to him: "We will sail for another ten hours, and you can take off by this evening. "

According to the plan, they will be released at a distance of more than 400 nautical miles from the island nation's mainland. It is just early in the morning, and the fleet is at a speed of 20 knots, arriving at the scheduled location just in the afternoon.

Bombing at night is much less dangerous.

Jimmy is Doolittle's nickname. He heard General Halsey's words with a smile on his face: "This time we were able to successfully bomb, and the navy has done a lot. It's a pity that our plane is not far enough."

It would be great if the United States had a bomber with sufficient range to take off directly from the United States, and then fly back after the bombing! Doolittle sighed in his heart, and he knew that this was impossible.

Moreover, if you have this kind of bomber, you don't need to look at the navy's face. In any country, there are disputes about military discord.

Of course Halsey knew what Dolittle was thinking, he just smiled, and the Navy was also thinking about his own safety.

After all, the Pacific Fleet was maimed, and the Navy still had one or two years to recover if it wanted to recover. During this time, they could only rely on their existing strength to defend, and they absolutely couldn't make mistakes.

Just when he just wanted to say something, suddenly, an anxious voice came from the radio: "Report, near our waters, an island nation patrol boat was found!"

Although there are still more than six hundred nautical miles away from the island nation, the island nation’s navy has already moved around here, and now, the watchman on the island nation’s patrol ship Nitto Maru 23, cruising in this area, is in the early morning fog. In the water vapor, a huge fleet was found.

The flag of an island country is not hanging on it!

"Quickly, send a telegram to the mainland immediately and find that the US aircraft carrier formation is in the waters near us!" the captain said anxiously.

There were only eleven people on this patrol boat. The telegrapher hurriedly started the transmitter. After warming up, the voice of Didi didi rang.

Almost at the same time, on the side of the American aircraft carrier formation, the main gun of the destroyer USS Nashville turned, and the dark muzzle aimed at them.

"Boom, boom!" In one salvo, the artillery shells hit the patrol ship, and the middle of it started to catch fire, and the whole ship was slowly sinking.

The U.S. Navy responded quickly, but it still failed to prevent the other party from sending a telegram.

"We can't move on anymore." Halsey said: "I'm sorry, but you should be able to understand that we will be within the range of the island country's aircraft, which is very dangerous for our fleet."

The navy fleet can no longer move forward. They are here to **** the bombers, but they also have to ensure their own safety.

Doolittle frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then we will take off now."

"Full rudder right, full speed, ready to release the carrier aircraft!" The captain on the other side gave an order.

The aircraft carrier formation turned around and made an arc on the sea. Now it is easterly wind. They must turn their heads and sail eastward.

Black smoke came out of the chimney behind the bridge, and the huge aircraft carrier of more than 30,000 tons began to accelerate on the sea.

"Quick, quick, quick!" Doolittle shouted: "Remove everything you don't use. We will fly three hundred nautical miles more!"

He pointed to the machine gun in front of the nose: "Take down these machine guns too!"

These are the only self-defense machine guns left. With these machine guns removed, they will not have any self-defense capabilities.

The subordinates did so without hesitation. At the same time, a barrel of extra gasoline was also picked up. If you want to fly, you need more fuel.

Soon, Doolittle was in place, sitting in his cabin, Doolittle beckoned to the tower, and then he started the engine.

Before that, he had taken off twice from the deck of the aircraft carrier, and the 60-meter runway was not a challenge for him.

Push the throttle to the maximum and release the brakes. At this time, the aircraft carrier has provided him with an airspeed of 30 knots. His bomber almost flew to its head on the short deck.

Pull up, pull up!

When the wheel was about to leave the deck~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He held the lever backwards, but the bomber couldn’t lift the front wheels. In this way, the whole fuselage dropped half a meter down when it left the deck. The height of the aircraft, then, finally the nose began to rise.

It's flying!

With the first one, there is the second one, and the third one. The farther back, the longer the take-off runway. The bombers all left the deck and entered the sky.

"Good luck to you!" Lieutenant General Halsey shouted from inside the bridge. As a high-level commander, you must know what to abandon. Sometimes, knowing that your orders will lead to death, you must also give orders.

There are tens of thousands of people in the entire fleet, and these people cannot be put into greater danger. The bomber's voyage can complete the bombing of the island country, only after the bombing is completed...

Halsey let himself stop these imaginations, as long as he can throw the bomb over the island country, he will win! This will greatly boost the morale of the country, and at the same time, the Doolittle bombing force will always live in the hearts of the people.
