Invincible from the sword

Chapter 480 The Cunning Japanese Army

Spruance was also nervous.

After all, this is the first time he has formally commanded such a large fleet.

If you are not careful, the entire fleet will fall into a huge crisis.

During the battle of Midway Island, the fighting power of the Japanese army left a deep impression on Spruance.

So he didn't dare to be careless.

Soon, the reconnaissance plane ahead reported to Spruance by radio equipment.

It is said that a light aircraft carrier of the Japanese army and more than a dozen other warships left the Japanese naval formation and began to sail eastward.

The other three Japanese aircraft carriers, as well as other warships, kept their course unchanged.

Right in front of their Pacific Fleet.

finally come.

After receiving the report, Spruance felt a lot more at ease.

At the same time, he was deeply shocked by Zhang Lei's judgment.

This is completely consistent with Zhang Lei's judgment.

According to Zhang Lei's judgment, in order to win, the Japanese army will probably use an aircraft carrier to attract all of Spruance's carrier-based aircraft.

Then Nan Yunzhong repeatedly sent a large number of carrier-based aircraft to attack Spruance's aircraft carrier.

This Japanese army is insidious enough.

In order to successfully lure the Japanese carrier-based aircraft over, Spruance must now send some of the aircraft to attack the Japanese light aircraft carrier.

Otherwise, the Japanese carrier-based aircraft may not come.

Spruance immediately ordered the aircraft carrier USS Wasp and twenty other warships to leave the task force.

Conducted by Fletcher.

To sink the light aircraft carrier of the Japanese army.

All remaining warships and aircraft carriers, get ready.

Always ready to fight.

At the same time, Spruance ordered that the radio communication equipment be restored,

Give combat orders to Lao Fan on Guadalcanal Island.

Command the fighters and bombers on the island to immediately take off with bombs and torpedoes.

Bombing Japanese aircraft carriers without carrier aircraft protection.

The carrier-based aircraft on Spruance's three aircraft carriers took off directly.

In order to better fight against Japanese aircraft, the aircraft that took off from the aircraft carrier did not carry bombs.

In this way, aircraft fuel can be saved.

Attack the Japanese aircraft at the farthest distance from your own formation.

The performance of Spruance's fighter jets is completely crushing against the Japanese Type Zero.

Coupled with Lao Fan's shore-based aircraft, it is not a big problem to destroy Nagumo Chuichi's fleet this time.

Because there is no need to mount bombs, the carrier-based aircraft on the Spruance aircraft carrier take off very quickly.

On the decks of the three aircraft carriers, dozens of fighter jets were densely parked.

At the same time, there are also a large number of aircraft parked in the hangar below the deck.

All the pilots are very excited.

After learning about this mission, almost all the pilots couldn't keep their eyes open with laughter.

Masturbate.

This is much easier than fighting the Japanese aircraft carrier.

Not only is the risk low, but it is also particularly easy to upgrade to become an ace pilot in the lighthouse country.

In their eyes, the Zero fighters of the Japanese army are just a pile of industrial waste.

Air lighter.

As long as a bullet hits a Japanese aircraft, there is an 80.00% probability that it will explode.

The fighter jets on the deck of the aircraft carrier have all their propellers turned on.

As long as it accelerates, it can fly from the deck.

The aircraft dispatcher on the deck is working intensely.

In order to increase the speed of lift-off, basically two planes take off at the same time.

The fighter jets of the three aircraft carriers add up to more than one hundred.

After lift-off, there was a large black mass.

A small formation of three planes, and a large formation of nine planes.

In the direction of the Japanese fleet, they rushed over.

Because the Japanese Zero fighter jets have very poor high-altitude performance, all the carrier-based aircraft of the Lighthouse Country are ambushed in the high-altitude clouds.

When the time comes, dive from a high altitude.

If you are lucky, you can directly kill the Japanese Zero fighter.

Under normal circumstances, the Japanese attacking aircraft formation is composed of bombers, torpedo planes and fighter jets.

Because the Japanese army has only three aircraft carriers here, according to Spruance's estimation, the total number of attacking Japanese aircraft groups will not exceed one hundred.

The escort fighter jets are at most thirty.

As long as these dozens of Japanese fighter jets are killed, the remaining Japanese aircraft formation will only be beaten.

Bombers and torpedo planes fly slowly.

It is not an opponent of a fighter at all.

At this time, the Japanese aircraft formation had already taken off.

The pilot of the Japanese army had a dignified expression.

Inside the Japanese Fleet Command, Nagumo Tadaichi observed the aircraft in mid-air with a telescope.

God Amaterasu, please grant me strength!
The Japanese troops on the deck of the Japanese aircraft carrier were also full of dignity.

Many devil soldiers are not optimistic about this attack.

Many of these soldiers were the lucky ones in the Battle of Midway.

These devils were immediately isolated after returning to the mainland of the island country.

Then it was sent directly to here.

Not to mention going home to see my wife, I didn't even get a good night's sleep.

The Battle of Midway had a major psychological impact on these Japanese troops.

And the commander of this battle is still Nagumo Chuichi.

This made these devils feel uneasy all the time.

The pilots of the Japanese army wore a strip of white cloth on their heads, grinning.

The leading Japanese flight captain is a Japanese major named Seimei Abe.

There was no expression on his face.

Flying in a dive bomber.

Now his eyelids are constantly beating.

Heart pounding.

Unspeakably painful.

I've never felt this uncomfortable feeling before.

Could it be my prostatitis attack?

Abe Seimei was puzzled.

Could it be that I am going to be a tragedy?

As one of the best carrier-based aircraft pilots in the island country, Abe Seimei is one of the aces of the Japanese Navy's carrier-based aircraft pilots.

This bad feeling made Abe Seimei always feel that something went wrong.

Just as he was wondering, he saw a thin red line flying past the front of the cockpit of his plane.

What the hell! ! !

Abe Seimei's eyes are very good.

Although the red line disappeared in a flash, Abe Seimei was very sure that the red line formed by the bullet flying immediately.

chug.

chug.

As the red line flashed by, Abe Seimei heard the unique sound of heavy machine guns.

Abe Seimei's scalp tingled when he heard it.

A Zero fighter ahead of his plane, thick black smoke billowing from the wings.

Two seconds later, a ball of fire erupted from the smoking place.

The wing of the burning plane was quickly broken into two sections.

The whole plane kept rolling in mid-air.

The engine hummed sharply.

The plane finally pulled out a thick black smoke in mid-air, fell to the ground and exploded.

Seen from a high altitude, the flames produced by the explosion were only as big as a fingernail.

There was no sound at all.

Abe Seimei was taken aback.

My heart skipped a beat.

If you think about it with your ass, you know, they were ambushed.

The Japanese aircraft formation was suddenly in chaos.

Many Japanese aircraft turned into a big fireball in mid-air before they could react.

The Hellcat fighter jet of Lighthouse Country has two cannons installed on the wings.

There is still a heavy machine gun on the propeller of the plane.

The overall firepower is very strong.

And the protection is also top-notch.

The Japanese Zero fighter has only two machine guns, and the caliber of the bullets is also smaller.

As for protection, it can be ignored.
