Chapter 390 The Attack on Pearl Harbor 2

At 7:30, the first wave of Japanese attack aircraft flew over the north shore of Oahu Island. Almost all American radars found this huge group of aircraft in the air. At that time, the US Air Defense Command was a little less confident, because they felt that there would not be so many b-17 bombers coming from the mainland.

At 7:39, the commander of the Japanese flying brigade issued an attack order to all combat aircraft!Pearl Harbor is like a beautiful girl in a blue veil, quietly showing off her beauty, waiting for the arrival of Japanese planes; while the US aircraft carriers, battleships, destroyers, etc., are placed randomly like this beautiful girl. Toys on azure velvet!

At 7:43, the commander of the Japanese Flying Brigade sent a telegram of "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!" to Nagumo Chuichi, reporting that the sneak attack was successful! Two minutes later, 2 combat aircraft, under the leadership of their respective leaders, pressed the nose of the aircraft, and the teams rushed towards the established target.

It was a Sunday, and if it weren't for the Japanese, it would have been a peaceful Sunday as usual; but the bombing of 420 Japanese planes made this peaceful Sunday morning bloody and shattered!Some American soldiers are still dreaming sweet dreams in the cabin because of the madness last night, and a small number of soldiers who got up early have just come to the deck to breathe fresh air!

When the unique piercing sound of "Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo up" planes was heard in the air, many American soldiers were still wondering: Is this a drill?Didn't you hear yesterday that there will be drills today?

Historically, Japan had only 183 aircraft in its first wave of attacks, of which only 120 were torpedo bombers and dive bombers used to attack U.S. ships. However, in this bombing in parallel time and space, the number of combat aircraft that can directly attack ships is astonishing. 300!The intensity is 2.5 times higher than in history!

At 7:48, the U.S. Navy issued a warning to all ships: "Pearl Harbor is under air attack, this is not a drill!" At the same time, they reached the sky over Pearl Harbor, but they were unprepared and could not intervene at all!

However, this group of American planes that escaped their lives in history did not have such luck in parallel time and space.In the high school, the Japanese fighter pilots who saw the torpedo planes and bombers in full swing immediately rushed to the American fleet. The b-17 is a good hand in aerial bombing, but if they want to engage in aerial combat with Japan, they must It was really embarrassing for them, even if they dropped all the bombs on board, they still couldn't escape the fate of being shot down!

In this purely accidental air battle, the Japanese achieved a record of 59:0, which is a surprise.Only the reconnaissance planes of the Enterprise, some of which were quick to see the plane, turned around and fled immediately when they saw the Japanese plane. Later, they escaped safely under the support of other fighter planes of the "Enterprise".

More intense battles take place on the sea!

The US battleship Arizona, which was on the outskirts of Pearl Harbor, was the first to be attacked. It was hit by 1 torpedoes within 4 minute, and two heavy bombs were hit on the deck. It capsized and sank in just 9 minutes!The Nevada responded very quickly. When the Japanese plane dropped the first bomb, it fired anti-aircraft fire on the starboard side. A Japanese fighter plane was hit and disintegrated in the air, but at the same time the Nevada was bombed by an air squadron of 12 fighter planes. In history, this battleship had to be stranded on the beach after being shot many times to prevent it from sinking. However, the Nevada in parallel time and space was not so lucky. sink.

At the same time, the aircraft carriers USS Lexington, USS Saratoga, battleships Pennsylvania, battleships California, battleships Maryland, battleships Oklahoma, battleships Tennessee, and battleships West Virginia were all attacked. There was an attack by at least one air squadron, and their fate was no different from that of the USS Arizona and USS Nevada, all of which were sunk by Japanese planes!

The U.S. Pacific Fleet, except for the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise and the battleship USS Colorado, were spared because they were not at Pearl Harbor, they were all buried in the first wave of attacks by the Japanese naval aviation!

Fifteen minutes after the attack, that is, at 15:8, the Supreme Commander of the United States in Hawaii, Admiral Walter Short, reported to Washington: "Pearl Harbor has been attacked by Japan! The battle with Japan has begun!"

At the same time, radio stations in Hawaii suspended other programs to report news of the attack on Pearl Harbor and called on all soldiers to cancel their weekend vacation and return to their posts.

At 8:40, the second wave of 365 aircraft of the Japanese Naval Air Force arrived over Oahu Island.A U.S. fleet staff officer who was watching the bombing of Pearl Harbor with a telescope on the top of a certain building yelled in fright: "There is no end to this group of Japanese pigs!"

At this time, the U.S. planes at the Hawaii airport had already taken off to fight. However, the second wave of the Japanese naval air force, which attacked, had a total of 180 fighter and attack planes capable of air combat. The same fierce and large number of Japanese planes can't be stopped!

The second wave of bombers began to bomb unsunk ships, port facilities, buildings and the like indiscriminately.There are two Japanese aviation teams leaving the main battlefield to find the US military airport!

Historically, Nagumo Tadashi launched two waves of air strikes, and then withdrew his troops.Because Nagumo Chuichi was worried about being attacked by US aircraft carriers and US mainland aircraft.However, Nagumo Chuichi in parallel time and space is too powerful and has too many combat aircraft. Therefore, at 9 o'clock in the morning, Nagumo Chuichi ordered 300 fighters to take off to carry out the third wave of strikes on Pearl Harbor .In Japan's entire aircraft carrier formation, only 75 aircraft were left as "housekeepers."

After the plane flew up into the sky and could not see a shadow, Nagumo Chuichi ordered the entire fleet to strengthen its guard to prevent the US Air Force from attacking!

At 10 o'clock in the morning, except for the 5 planes that participated in the attack in the first wave that remained in the sea at Pearl Harbor, the remaining 415 planes returned smoothly, which relieved Nagumo's hanging heart.

Also at 10 a.m., the Governor of Hawaii declared a state of martial law in the territory of Hawaii.

At 10:50, the third wave of fighter planes of the Japanese Naval Air Force flew over Oahu Island. Seeing that there was no longer a ship floating on the water in Pearl Harbor, and there was no intact building on the shore, they flew to the airport, warehouses, and buildings. Wait for the facilities to rush!The Japanese planes at this time, regardless of whether these facilities are military or civilian, they will never bring the bombs back to the aircraft carrier, but there are detailed regulations: fighter planes must return empty. There is a bomb, so if something happens, wouldn't it blow yourself up?

This last wave of bombing lasted until 11:50 in the morning, and the Japanese naval air force returned to the aircraft carrier unwillingly.The heart is unwilling because they did not bomb any valuable targets.

At 12:10, the few remaining U.S. reconnaissance planes flew towards the northern tip of Oahu Island. Within a range of at least 100 nautical miles, no enemy ships or aircraft were found.

The attack on Pearl Harbor came to an end.

Compared with the Pearl Harbor incident in history, there is no doubt that Japan's sneak attack in parallel time and space has achieved more brilliant results.Historically, the Japanese army has achieved the results of sinking 4 American battleships, 1 stranded, 3 severely damaged, 6 cruisers and 3 destroyers damaged, 188 aircraft destroyed, and 2403 American soldiers killed.However, Japan in parallel time and space sank 2 aircraft carriers, 8 battleships, 7 cruisers and 29 destroyers, destroyed 266 U.S. aircraft, and 4100 U.S. officers and soldiers died in this sneak attack.

And Japan's losses were even smaller than in history, only losing 12 planes, 31 pilots and 2 pocket submarines.

However, when all the information about Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was placed on Wu Aihua's desk, Wu Aihua shook his head, dissatisfied with Japan's "practice".

In Wu Aihua's view, the sneak attack itself was very successful, and Japan's tactical arrangements were also very appropriate. Neither Yamamoto 56 nor the executor Nagumo Chuichi made any mistakes; College written into textbooks.

However, although Japan now arrogantly calls itself the "Great Japanese Empire", it still cannot escape the Chinese name of "Little Japan". Little Japan is not only a small country, but also a very small mind.In this Pearl Harbor incident, Japan is fully capable and has the opportunity to land on Oahu Island and other islands, thereby completely occupying the Hawaiian Islands.However, Japanese decision makers completely ignored the role of the huge "forward base" of the Hawaiian Islands, and narrowly defined the goal of this campaign as annihilating the US Pacific Fleet!

If Japan can go a little further and occupy the Hawaiian Islands, what will be the result?You know, there are much more Japanese immigrants in the Hawaiian Islands than in the United States. Even in later generations, 80.00% of the residents of Hawaii and Oahu are black-haired, black-eyed Orientals (mostly Japanese), In addition, the native Hawaiian kingdom was destroyed by the United States, and there is an unresolvable hatred with the United States. This is the best opportunity for Japan to occupy Hawaii.

What would happen if Japan took advantage of the trend to occupy the Hawaiian Islands?First, it can become a springboard for attacking the mainland of the United States. Here, it is only 2000 nautical miles away from the mainland of the United States, while it is 3500 nautical miles away from the mainland of Japan; the Japanese fleet can easily implement a harassment strategy against the mainland of the United States along the west coast of the United States; second, Occupying Hawaii is tantamount to completely cutting off the connection between the United States and Asia. The Philippines and Australia are just ripe fruits waiting for the Japanese to pick them.Third, even if the Americans want to storm Hawaii, this place can also become a meat grinder for American soldiers. As Oahu Island with an area of ​​1500 square kilometers, it is completely an unsinkable aircraft carrier!
