Chapter 372 Attack
At the command center on the tower at Pek Pangpo Airport, the communications soldiers were in charge of contacting various crews. A large number of fighter jets were sent to the Gulf of Thailand to search for traces of the Japanese fleet. This made the communications soldiers' missions very busy.
"The Chief, the 1112th formation reported that they discovered the Japanese fleet in the eastern waters of Nakhon Palace, Thailand." A correspondent reported.
"Let the 1112th formation continue to monitor, and I will report to the commander immediately." The officer quickly walked towards the office of the air force commander Xu Huansheng.
After Xu Huansheng learned the news, he immediately sent someone to find Liu Chengzhang, the commander of the land-based carrier-based aircraft force.
"Old Liu, I have discovered the traces of Ri* himself. Next, it's time for you to play." Xu Huansheng smiled.
"Haha! That's great. My brothers are already ready to do something big." Liu Chengzhang laughed.
Immediately, Liu Chengzhang issued an order to take off the carrier-based aircraft unit and prepare to attack the Japanese fleet.
Because the Japanese army's fleet was huge, there were more than 100 transport ships and merchant ships of all sizes. In order to ensure that all these transport ships and merchant ships were killed, the land-based carrier-based aircraft troops were also dispatched. All 200 aircraft from the two brigades were dispatched.
"The 1st carrier-based aircraft brigade is ready and can take off."
Half an hour later, the carrier-based aircraft troops took off one after another. Diving bombers were covered with bombs, torpedo attack aircraft carrying heavy torpedoes, and carrier-based fighter aircraft hanging under the wings took off.
These aircraft formed formations over the airport and then flew to a high altitude to avoid being discovered by the Japanese army on the ground.
The huge fleet of aircraft flew towards the Gulf of Thailand. The Japanese transport fleet knew nothing at all at this moment.
After the first land-based carrier-based aircraft took off, the second brigade also took off in less than half an hour. A total of 200 fighter jets, if they performed well, could completely eliminate Japan's own transport fleet. Of course, even if they were not good, they could still be severely damaged.
After all, the Japanese army did not send warships to escort these transport fleets, nor did they protect them.
Perhaps, this is because the Japanese* himself was too confident. Although the Japanese army had a great decline in the battlefield in the South China Sea, after all, the entire Nanyang is still under their control. The seas in the South China Sea are also under their control. Whether the escort warships and aircraft will not be dispatched will have much impact.
Furthermore, Japan himself did not expect that the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army would target their transport fleets and would adopt this method to deal with them. If they had known it, they might have given up fast shipping and chose a slow but safer land route.
However, soon Japan myself will know that the situation this time was completely different. The Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army set their sights on them and chose to use the most secure way to eliminate the Japanese army's vital forces and further create convenient conditions for the Battle of Thailand.
Maolanmian, the headquarters of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, has been paying attention to this plan. If the air force and carrier-based aircraft units can severely damage the reinforcements sent by the Japanese army to Thailand, it will be easier for them to win the Battle of Thailand.
"The commander, the air force's reconnaissance aircraft, discovered the Japanese fleet. Now, the carrier-based aircraft troops are attacking. I believe that soon, the results of the battle will come." Chief of Staff Liu Shiquan reported to Qin Shou.
"Well, how big is the size of Japanese*'s fleet?" Qin Shou asked. If it were just a small transport fleet, it would not have a great effect. And there is also the possibility of alerting the enemy.
"Commander, the fleet is very large, with hundreds of transport ships and merchant ships." Liu Shiquan said.
"Hundreds of transport ships and merchant ships are really a large fleet. These are at least the personnel and equipment of two divisions! If they can be killed, Japanese* himself will have no advantage in the battlefield in Thailand." Qin Shou's face was filled with smiles.
The 2nd Army and 38th Army of the Japanese army had a total of 180,000 people. After losing two divisions this time, the Japanese army's troops in Thailand were not much different from the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Of course, this was not calculated without the Thais. Previous battles have proved that under the same troop, Japan himself had no possibility of defeating the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army at all. The possibility of defeating the Japanese army on the battlefield in Thailand will be further improved.
"Yes, Commander. If you destroy these two Japanese divisions, the pressure on the 1st Army will be much smaller." Liu Shiquan nodded.
"If we can kill a large-scale Japanese transport fleet after destroying these two divisions of the Japanese army, then we will definitely win this battle." Qin Shou looked expectant. However, he also knew that this possibility would not be too great. Japan himself was not that stupid.
"Let's see if God bless us." Liu Shiquan said. He also believed that this possibility was not high.
Of course, even so, after resolving the two Japanese divisions, the pressure on the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army would be much smaller.
In the Gulf of Thailand, the Japanese transport fleet was sailing north. Hundreds of transport ships formed an extremely large fleet. If you look down from the sky, it would be like a long dragon swimming on the sea.
Some of the Japanese officers and soldiers transporting these transport ships and merchant ships slept in the cabin, some basked in the sun on the deck, and some chatted quietly.
For these Japanese officers and soldiers, the upcoming Battle of Thailand will be a severe test. If you are not careful, you may lose all your lives. Therefore, this journey before arriving in Thailand may be their best relaxation.
However, these Japanese officers and soldiers never thought that the battle had already begun, not only in Thailand, but also in this area of the Gulf of Thailand.
A large group of small black dots flew into the sky to the north. The fighter jets of the anti-Japanese and national rescue army land-based carrier-based aircraft units had already flown to this airspace. Under the guidance of the air force's reconnaissance aircraft, they did not go to the wrong place or take detours, and went straight to the Japanese fleet.
"Each squadron launches an attack and sank all the Japanese transport ships and merchant ships as much as possible, leaving no one left. All the damn Japanese* himself will go to the sea to feed fish." The commander of the carrier-based aircraft unit issued an order.
Suddenly, two hundred carrier-based aircraft rushed from high altitude towards the Japanese fleet on the sea.
