Morita naturally didn't say anything in the end, but deep down in his heart, he still hoped to go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese. Now that he saw the navy going out, he just felt a little envious in his heart.
On the Yellow Sea, near the Korean Strait, several warships and two aircraft carriers are stationed.
"Your Excellency, Commander, according to intelligence, the Chinese navy has launched an attack." A Japanese soldier walked up to Yamamoto Isoroku and reported.
"Yo Xi." Yamamoto Isoroku nodded, looked at the endless sea, and then said, "We can send out fighter planes to investigate."
"Hi!"
Watching the soldiers leave, Yamamoto Isoroku also smiled. Everything was under his control. The Navy of the Independent Division had indeed left the port. What he didn't know was that this news was also specially revealed by Zhou Weiguo.
"Finally, we can compete." He murmured to himself, preparing to show off his skills today. Yamamoto Isoroku served as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet during World War II, and carried out the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor and the launch of the The planner of the Battle of Midway was an aviation theorist and author of "Aviation Victory". He was looking forward to today's battle very much.
Narrowing his eyes, he looked at the fighter planes on the aircraft carrier. They were all brand new fighter planes. "In this battle, I will definitely defeat you, and I will cripple you, just like the Sino-Japanese War of 1894."
…
Zhang Gan took his fleet as bait and was quite cautious. At least, he himself is a cautious person. In this battle, he will first lead his soldiers to fight the Japanese. Of course, on the water surface There is also Liu Zhihui's submarine formation escorting below.
However, Zhang Qian still squinted his eyes. They have a secret weapon, a kind of monitoring equipment called radar, which was only equipped on various battleships and aircraft carriers last month. I heard that it is a relatively advanced monitoring technology that can be used on all battleships and aircraft carriers. Planes in the sky, submarines under the sea, etc. are detected dozens of kilometers away. It is said that this technology is only relatively mature in the United Kingdom and the United States. It is said that Japan has also deployed such a radar on its own land, but its performance is very poor. More Let alone Japan’s current navy.
Soon, soldiers came to report that fighter jets had been detected more than 100 kilometers away in the northeast.
Zhang Qian laughed. Sure enough, the fish had taken the bait. "Tell the other two fleets that the fish has taken the bait."
"yes!"
The sun has been rising over the sea for a while, and the clouds on the horizon have also been dyed golden by the rising sun, turning into morning glow, which is very beautiful. If you look at it from a distance, the fleet led by Zhang Qian looks like the same under the sky. But it's about the same size as an ant.
And above the sky, in the golden morning glow, a few small black dots suddenly appeared, and then slowly increased in number.
Zhang Gan stood in the cabin and put down the telescope. The Japanese fighter plane appeared, which meant that the Japanese were not far away from them. However, he still had to show the Japanese the proper response, "Order, direction southwest, speed 30 knots." !”
"Yes!" So, the fleet led by Zhang Gan began to retreat to the southwest, meaning, little devil, I saw your fighter plane, I will leave first, of course, I will not go very fast, you slow down Chase slowly.
Under the water, Liu Zhihui, who had been staring at Zhang Qian's fleet, was also stunned. Then he realized that the Japs had taken the bait. Then, he ordered the troops to stay in place. At least, if the Japs wanted to pursue them, the warships would definitely pass by. Nearby, all he has to do is to set a trap for the Japanese here.
…
"Your Excellency, Commander, the China Navy has been discovered!" the Japanese soldier reported to Yamamoto Isoroku.
"Yoshi, top speed, pursuit!"
"Hi!"
…
At this time, Chen Jiliang and Lin Jianzhang also received news from Zhang Qian that the Japanese had taken the bait. They could not be too close to Zhang Qian, but they could not be too far away. If they were too close, they would be easily discovered, and if they were too far away, support would not be timely. .
However, after receiving the news from Zhang Qian, they were always ready to provide support. They were waiting for Zhang Qian's next move.
…
Soon, dozens of warships appeared on the Yellow Sea, including those from the Japanese Navy and the Chinese Navy.
"Your Majesty Commander, we have caught up with the Chinese!"
"Yo Xi, the fighter planes are dispatched! Go and beat me hard!"
"Hi!"
"All battleships and cruisers in battle formation, attack!"
"Hi!"
Zhang Gan looked at the fighters and bombers in the sky in the distance and smiled, "Tell the soldiers that it's time to take action."
"yes!"
Soon, various types of fighter planes from the Independent Division quickly took off.
In Yamamoto Isoroku's view, even in a naval battle, the air force will fight first. This is the battle of aircraft carriers. It is also what he believes is the most correct theory of aviation victory. And this has been continuously proven on the Chinese battlefield. Whether it is a naval battle or a land battle, this time is also the official debut of their new fighter jets.
In addition to the battle in the sky, the battle on the sea also began. Various flying artillery shells fell into the sea water, causing huge waves, and the warships on the sea even shook due to this.
Zhang Gan stood on the aircraft carrier, his body swaying. He knew that this time the battle was not just a sneak attack like before, but a head-on confrontation. The fleet he led was used as a bait, and he had to put it out at this time. Of course, it means attack, because in his dictionary, there is no escape without a fight.
Soon, various warships of the Japanese Navy slowly surrounded Zhang Qian's position. At this time, Chen Jiliang and Lin Jianzhang were also speeding towards Zhang Qian's position. In fact, the independent division wanted to Come to a center to bloom, and the Japanese want to make dumplings out of Zhang Qian's fleet.
Under the water at this time, Liu Zhihui was already very sure that not far in front of them was the Japanese fleet. At this time, the Japanese fleet was not equipped with radars or anything, so it was difficult to defend against submarines.
"Launch!" Liu Zhihui gave the order. Soon, an operator began to operate, and torpedoes began to fly toward the bottom of the Japanese battleship. The shock wave of the explosion spread out in all directions from the bottom of the battleship, and the battleship shook up and down. .
"Nani?" The Japanese soldiers on the battleship were a little confused. Soon, a Japanese commander noticed, "Yalu, there is a Chinese submarine force under the water!"
"Your Majesty Colonel, the power system has been damaged, what should we do now?" A soldier was a little panicked, and the underwater torpedo strikes were very precise.
"Immediately tell your Excellency, Commander, the situation under the water. As for us, it's time to be loyal to the empire." The Japanese commander said calmly. He was never afraid of death. He was afraid that death would be meaningless.
"Hi!" When the Japanese soldier saw the colonel's firm eyes, he knew what he should do.
