Bright Sword Military System

There is only one update today, sorry!

----------------

Although Wang Xuexin wanted to help Yingjiang, but in fact he failed to do what Wang Xuexin wanted.

This is mainly due to Halsey. He wanted to completely wipe out the devil's aircraft carrier to avoid future troubles, so he was unwilling to obey the order to continue chasing the devil's bait several times.

From Halsey's point of view he couldn't be wrong, and instead he questioned the orders of his superiors.

"God!" Halsey exclaimed when he received the information asking them to come back for help: "Do they know what they are talking about? The devil's main fleet is right in front of us, and there are four aircraft carriers! Four! If this is not the main force, it will What is the main force? And if the main force of the devils is here, how can they have a fleet to attack our landing fleet!"

According to common sense, there is nothing wrong with Halsey's words.

Because an aircraft carrier usually needs battleships, cruisers, and several destroyers to escort it, so that the aircraft carrier will not be threatened by enemy submarines or warships in close combat, especially it can also provide air cover for the aircraft carrier.

If there are four Devils aircraft carriers in front of Halsey, does that mean that the Devils fleet must be escorted by at least thirty warships?

Then the rest of the devil's fleet should be stragglers, not enough to pose a threat to Yingjiang's landing fleet.

What Halsey didn't expect was that the fleet used by the devils to lure him did indeed have four aircraft carriers, but there were only thirteen warships used for escort, and most of them were light cruisers and destroyers.

On the other hand, the timing of the devil's attack was just right: when the aircraft carrier fleet appeared in front of Yingjiang, it was after four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was about to get dark at this time.

At this time, once Halsey pursued him, he would be in a state of unknown intelligence in the next ten hours of the night and could only rely on guesswork.

If it was dawn, Halsey didn't need to chase at all. The fighter jets, bombers, and torpedo planes flew together and directly sank the devil's aircraft carrier and warship.

Because Halsey believed that what he was chasing was the main force of the devils, he refused the orders given by the admiral twice. It was not until the admiral asked him to come back with a strong tone that Halsey reluctantly transferred some Troops return to aid.

But it was too late at this time. The battle at Wright Bay started in the early morning, and Halsey's reinforcements failed to arrive and go into battle in the early morning, so it was tantamount to no return reinforcements.

The devils adopted their usual tactics of sneak attack at dawn: calculate the time of dawn, launch anti-ship missiles when it is dark, and when the anti-ship missiles reach the target area, it is already bright, so the pilots can find the target and launch an attack on it.

Although the Eagle Sauce Landing Fleet was alerted by Wang Xuexin, they never thought that the devils would launch a sneak attack in this way. In the first instance, 8 escort aircraft carriers were hit by anti-ship missiles and caught fire or were injured. The fighter planes could not take off to participate in the battle. It will further affect Ying Jiang's combat effectiveness.

Then the Devil Fleet took advantage of the momentum and rushed into the Eagle Sauce Landing Fleet, making a mess...

At this time in history, Yingjiang will have seven destroyers regardless of their own safety, firing torpedoes and rushing towards the devil fleet to buy time for the escorting aircraft carrier to escape.

These seven destroyers played no small role. In order to avoid torpedoes, the Devils slowed down and were disrupted. This is one of the reasons why they failed to seize the opportunity in the Wright Gulf naval battle.

Therefore, these seven destroyers are also known as the "Seven Heroes of Wright Gulf".

However, at this time, because the devils had anti-ship missiles, the seven destroyers were already injured before they launched an attack on the devils fleet, so they couldn't take care of themselves.

Wang Xuexin received the information soon.

The information was given by Sun Erwei. He said dejectedly on the phone: "You are right, Wang! But it is too late, we have not had time to return to help! Just remind us earlier!"

Of course, Sun Erwei was embarrassed to say that it was not Wang Xuexin who was late, but Halsey who insisted on going his own way.

This is not what Wang Xuexin can control. Even if Wang Xuexin was earlier, maybe the result would still be the same.

"How about casualties?" Wang Xuexin asked.

Perhaps because of military secrets, Sun Erwei did not say the specific number, he just replied: "The situation is very bad!"

Soon Wang Xuexin got exact information from the headquarters... The reason why the headquarters got the information was that the devils immediately released the results of the battle: four escort aircraft carriers were sunk in Yingjiang, seven were damaged, 162 fighter planes were blown up, and another Sunk and damaged more than [-] warships of various types, but the casualties of the Devils fleet were minimal.

Of course, this does not rule out that the devils "falsely report their military exploits" to boost morale.

However, judging from Sun Erwei's reaction, it is certain that Ying Jiang suffered a big loss in this battle.

This surprised Wang Xuexin.

This change is a bit big.

Although Halsey was indeed fooled in history, in the end it was the devil who missed the opportunity because he did not continue to pursue the escorting aircraft carrier, and was beaten and suffered heavy losses.

Now Halsey is also being fooled, but the battle situation has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Is it because of anti-ship missiles?

Should not be!

Devils have anti-ship missiles, doesn't Yingjiang also have anti-ship missiles?

Even Eagle Sauce equipped the carrier-based fighter jets with sea-search radars, which may detect the devil's warships outside the range of anti-ship missiles.

Why is it still like this?

After thinking for a while, Wang Xuexin figured it out.

It is true that Ying Jiang is equipped with anti-ship missiles, and it is also equipped with sea search fighters, but the problem is that these are all equipped on the main fleet.

Among them, especially the sea search fighter, its weight makes it only take off on the main aircraft carrier.

And these were the bait that Halsey pulled out to chase the devils.

As a result, Yingjiang's anti-ship missiles and advanced sea search fighters basically didn't work, but the devil's "human-operated missiles" showed their talents.

Wang Xuexin immediately realized that this was an opportunity for the Eighth Route Army.

He ordered Zhang Zongping: "Order the reconnaissance brigade to go to Gua Xinjing and stand by. When the time is ripe, immediately raid the Fengman Hydropower Station!"

"Yes!"

The Fengman Hydropower Station is built on the Songhua River. It is surrounded by water or mountains, which is very suitable for the helicopter operations of the reconnaissance brigade.

Wang Xuexin judged that the devils would temporarily put down their guard against the Fengman Hydropower Station because of the victory in the naval battle.

To be precise, it is not the heart of vigilance, but the victory of the naval battle determines that the devils cannot bomb the hydropower station but must protect it.

At this time, it was a good time for the Eighth Route Army to attack and take down the hydropower station.

However, on the other hand, Wang Xuexin couldn't let Ying Jiang retreat to Wright Bay just like that.

Otherwise, the combined fleet of the devils would sail to Dalian and encircle the entire northeast coastline as soon as they turned around!

At that time, the entire Eighth Route Army will be driven out of the Northeast, so what if the Fengman Hydropower Station is taken?
However, in this situation, how can we help Yingjiang win this naval battle?
