Invincible from the sword

Chapter 406 Is it here now?
Should I take it or take it or take it?

Stilwell pondered.

From his heart, he really wanted it.

Commander of the Southwest Pacific Theater.

This is a very high position.

And if he can defeat the Japanese army in the Kangaroo Country this time, then he, Stilwell, will be promoted to the general of the Lighthouse Country, absolutely no problem.

It can even go down in history because of this credit.

To tell the truth, it was hard for Stilwell to refuse such a temptation.

And the appointment of Wheelchair Luo also said that Zhang Lei is the colonel's combat staff.

The purpose was to give him Stilwell an idea.

After all, the senior commanders of the Lighthouse Kingdom knew that Zhang Lei had a thorough understanding of the Japanese army.

Under normal circumstances, as long as the combat order is issued according to Zhang Lei's suggestion, basically there will be no major problems.

Stilwell was very moved: "Zhang Lei, when do you think it would be better for us to go there.

Wheelchair Luo said very seriously in the telegram.

Now the Japanese army has landed from Kangaroo Country.

And the strength has reached an astonishing 20.

This is very serious. "

From Stilwell's point of view, now that their lighthouse country is in the Pacific Ocean, it feels a bit battered and riddled with holes.

The fleet was terrified of being beaten.

It was hard to stop the Japanese landing from Port Moresby in the Coral Sea.

As a result, before taking a breath, the Japanese army landed from Darwin Port again.

Really beeping a dog.

This Japanese army, why does it feel like Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death?

As one of the commanders of the Lighthouse Country, Stilwell really had a headache.

It feels like the Japanese army is everywhere.

And their lighthouse country can only passively defend.

This made Stilwell very unhappy.

Of course, he also knew in his heart that this was all because the center of gravity of the lighthouse country was not in the Pacific Ocean at all.

The current lighthouse country's strategic center of gravity is still Europe.

Most of the resources are still tilted towards the Atlantic Fleet.

Moreover, most of the lighthouse country's troops are also gathering towards the east coast of the lighthouse country.

This seems to send out a signal.

The Beacon Country is preparing for a real war with the Dazhong Country.

As one of the few commanders in the Lighthouse Country who knew something about the island country, Stilwell also persuaded Nestor.

They are the lighthouse country and must be wary of the islanders.

When the islanders fight, they play their cards out of common sense.

And to be honest, the Japanese troops were really desperate to fight.

If the Japanese army is really allowed to attack their mainland of the Lighthouse Country, it will definitely be a disaster for the entire Lighthouse Country.

Zhang Lei thought for a while.

Since Wheelchair Luo issued such an order, it at least shows that the Kangaroo Country should already be in danger.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for Wheelchair Luo to replace Pipe Mike.

Although Pipe Mike's command ability is not very good, his background is tough.

Being able to be replaced can only show that the situation in Kangaroo Country is really not optimistic.

But now that the battle of Midway Island is at a critical moment, if he and Stilwell all go to Kangaroo Country now, it is estimated that Nimitz will collapse.

So Zhang Lei felt that Stilwell could go to Kangaroo Country to replace Pipe Mike first.

Let's stabilize the situation first.

After the Battle of Midway Island was over, he immediately rushed to the Kangaroo Country, and together with Stilwell, killed the Japanese army in the Kangaroo Country.

Zhang Lei really wanted to see how many troops the Japanese army could send to attack the Kangaroo Country.

Stilwell also agreed with Zhang Lei's suggestion.

After all, here in Nimitz, the war is also very urgent.

If his Pacific Fleet was destroyed by the Japanese army, then the Kangaroo Country would not be able to defend at all.

After Stilwell left, Zhang Lei and Nimitz began a tense deployment.

During the few days before the Japanese army arrived at Midway Island, Nimitz followed Zhang Lei's suggestion and deployed a large amount of anti-aircraft firepower on Midway Island.

The firepower is very powerful.

And his submarine force has also arrived at the predetermined sea area for vigilance.

The Nautilus submarine in the Pacific Fleet is on alert at [-] nautical miles from Midway Island.

This is the forefront of the Pacific Fleet's vigilance.

In order to discover the combined fleet of the Japanese army in the shortest time, Nimitz sent out dozens of them just as reconnaissance planes.

Unprecedented scale.

While the No.16 and No.17 task forces in the Pacific were conducting intense investigations, the Japanese fleet was not idle.

It was the mobile formation and support formation of the Japanese army that attacked Midway Island.

Among them, the mobile formation is the main offensive force.

The four Japanese aircraft carriers, Chicheng, Kaga, Canglong and Hiryu, were all incorporated into this formation.

The commander is Chuichi Nagumo.

At this moment, Nagumo Chuichi was frowning and waiting for the latest news.

In order to achieve concealment.

Radio silence was enforced throughout the fleet.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Nagumo Tadyoshi required that the antennas of the entire fleet must be put down.

In this case, even if a devil wants to send a radio, it will not be able to send it out.

Can't even catch a signal.

In the command room, Nagumo Tadaichi was very excited.

Now he is one of the most famous commanders in the island country.

During the attack on Pearl Harbor, he was the commander of the campaign, but his reputation was exhausted.

This became his biggest capital.

Nagumo Chuichi now has a bright future.

As long as it continues at the same speed, the island country's next Navy Minister will be his.

Regarding this, Hattori Naotomi even expressed it to him in a vague way.

It is not his turn to be the next Minister of the Navy of the island country.

Because Yamamoto 56 is still numbered there.

No matter what, Nagumo Chuichi couldn't make it through.

Unless Yamamoto 56 is dead.

As long as Nanyun Zhongyi thought of this, he felt a little helpless.

Although Nan Yunzhong is not young, but this bastard's physical fitness is very good.

It tastes delicious.

Not picky eaters.

Even with his daughter-in-law, he can occasionally have a third son.

This body is stronger than many young people.

I don't even know how to maintain it.

Could it be that wolfberries were soaked in water?

The reconnaissance plane sent out is conducting reconnaissance hundreds of nautical miles away from the fleet.

In order not to have accidents.

The chief of staff of the fleet has always felt that the number of reconnaissance planes sent out is a bit small.

To be on the safe side, more reconnaissance planes should be sent out.

After all, the goal of their island nation's fleet is the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse nation.

The lighthouse country's defense against Midway Island is absolutely very strict.

This point is absolute.

The strategic position is there.

But Nagumo Chuichi didn't see it that way.

The chief of staff of his own wing is still too cautious.

This is not acceptable.

What our island nation needs are commanders who dare to take risks.

Too conservative to fight a war at all.

Sending seven reconnaissance planes is enough.

And it is also the most suitable.

On the one hand, it is because in the entire combat plan, the fleet attacking the Aleutian Islands will attract more than half of the Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Country.

Fleet left at Pearl Harbor, not much.

Besides, he had sent a submarine force into the waters between Midway and Pearl Harbor.

As long as the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse country comes out of Pearl Harbor, he will know immediately.

On the other hand, Nagumo Chuichi felt that if too many reconnaissance planes were sent out, it would take too much time to recover the aircraft carrier.

This can have a big impact on attacking fighter lift times.

In aircraft carrier operations, the most important thing is to lift off quickly.

A ghost captain came over: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, we have arrived at the scheduled sea area.

Will the carrier-based aircraft take off immediately? "

Oh?
Nan Yunzhong was taken aback for a moment.

Is it here now?

well……

The era that belongs to me, Nagumo, is coming.

He put on his hat, and then bowed to the portrait of His Majesty the Dog in the command room.

His face hardened.

The troops were then ordered to end radio silence.

Prepare to attack.

Nanyun Zhongyi looked at the blue sky: "Beautiful!"

In the mobile formation of the Japanese army, the four aircraft carriers were densely packed with planes.

All the carrier-based aircraft, the propellers on the nose are buzzing and spinning rapidly.

Waiting in line for liftoff.

On the Japanese aircraft carrier, the devils were roughly divided into two groups.

A group of people dressed in black.

A wave of white clothes.

Those in black are Japanese soldiers.

The ones in white are the logistics personnel of the Japanese aircraft carrier.

Includes ammunition, decks, fire suppression, damage control, and more.

The Japanese devils responsible for assisting the carrier-based aircraft to lift off the aircraft carrier deck were also dressed in white.

The funniest thing is that even the commanding flag is white.

I don't know, I thought the devil's father was dead.

The sky in the distance has just revealed a little sunlight.

Following Nan Yunzhong's order one by one.

The carrier-based aircraft on the decks of the four Japanese aircraft carriers began to take off one after another.

A devil, holding a small white flag, with an arrogance on his face.

It feels like in my hand, it's not the flag, but the entire fleet.

There is quite a posture that I am awesome.

With the waving of the flag, a Japanese Type Zero fighter buzzed into the sky.

According to the plan formulated earlier, the four Japanese aircraft carriers took off more than [-] aircraft in total.

Among them, 36 Zero fighters, [-]-type dive bombers and [-]-type horizontal bombers took off.

The Type [-] bomber of the Japanese army did not have a good engine, so the bomb it carried was not large, only five hundred catties.

The Japanese Type [-] bomber is much more powerful.

The mounted bomb reached an astonishing [-] jin.

A bomb weighing more than 1000 kilograms is almost as big as three devils.

If you are blown up by such a bomb, if you are unlucky, it will sink immediately.

Immediately after the Japanese planes took off, they formed formations in the air.

The bombers are in the middle and the fighters are on the sides.

The sky above the entire Japanese fleet was filled with aircraft.

The scene looked very spectacular.

These aircraft constitute more than half of the air power of the Japanese fleet.

This time Nagumo Chuichi's mobile formation carried a total of [-] aircraft.

Now there are almost [-] aircraft on top of the four aircraft carriers.

This is to deal with the Pacific Fleet of the lighthouse country.
