Chapter 1017 The collision of the strongest battleship in history 4!

It is perfect to describe the current US Navy as "I was bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of a well rope". Compared with the Japanese who were unrepentant, these descendants from new immigrants are obviously much more flexible. Especially after Nimitz personally led the last Pacific Navy to defeat and returned with a desperate defeat, the US Navy confirmed one thing---Don't take any Chinese weakness and immaturity seriously, it is a bait that took seven steps to break the heart!

Just like now, it seems that the dark clouds are not at all pressing down on the top and the army is approaching. The light cruisers and destroyers who are still doing regular cruises around the main fleet as usual. After taking many photos of them, they "suddenly" discovered the US reconnaissance planes hovering in the sky, "hurriedly" called the fighter planes to drive them away, and showed a slight "tranquil" attitude of fleeing back.

But this drama is too fake. Not to mention Mark Mitchell, even those reconnaissance pilots who are not experienced can see something is wrong. The result is that before the interceptor fighter comes, they run away and repeatedly mention it in a very serious tone in the report, there are problems and big problems!

Major General Mitchell carefully discussed with his staff for more than two hours before he came to a preliminary conclusion: "The Chinese obviously had information and countermeasures for our arrival, so if we wanted to reach a surprise attack, the possibility did not exist. The only thing we need to do now is how to attack head-on while ensuring that our main force will not be damaged too seriously."

In one sentence, preserve strength.

Although Americans really want to invade China to avenge their revenge, it does not mean that they will bet on everything for a moment of anger and anger. The failure in the Pacific made Americans who have descended from Roosevelt clearly realize that they must be prepared for heavy losses at any time when they are against Zhu Bin.

Ultimately, Americans are economic animals, and they have to calculate the input-output ratio first when doing anything. If it is not suitable, try not to do it or avoid it.

At present, the biggest crisis facing the entire world is the rampant expansion of Hitler's fascism and the decline of the British Empire. It is opening a rare window for the rise of the United States. It is the great cause that Roosevelt wants to do when he is able to get the best interests in the war and strive to ensure that America becomes the world leader. Revenge on the Chinese and other things must be at the back.

Therefore, before the decisive strategic situation reverses, the US Navy as a guarantee will never allow too much loss. It cannot be used to pay attention to the mere interests of Southeast Asia on the other side of the earth that is completely invincible. Otherwise, no one can tell how big the war window will lead to.

First Europe and then Asia, this is a big strategy that no one can easily change.

With such a spirit as a guide, it is also much more difficult for the people below to do things. Major General Mitchell, who is full of talent and strategy, is still worried. This is difficult for his grandmother to do!

In this regard, Chief of Staff Kevin Scott's suggestion is more pertinent: "General, our program of action does not conflict with the strategic goals that were finally achieved. This time, we only need to be able to hold back the Chinese and prevent them from achieving complete destruction and occupying Chittagong and Yangon, and we will not be able to form an encirclement of the Indochina Peninsula and retain sufficient supply channels. Of course, if you have the opportunity, you can also try to annihilate this enemy."

Mitchell shook his head decisively: "Don't even think about that kind of thought. Either don't do that, or make up your mind to fight them to the death! Gentlemen, we must clearly realize that the posture the Chinese are now tempting us to find opportunities for victory. But don't forget that apart from air strikes, we currently have no better means to sink their main ships! There is no way to crack their ultra-long-range precise attacks! You will be punished if you are greedy for merit and advance!

The staff and the captain stopped talking.

After seeing the unreasonable and powerful attack power of the Chinese Navy, no one has ever expressed much confidence in the seemingly powerful armor of the warship. Nowadays, no matter how strong the warship is, you can't withstand the bombardment of heavy bombs and the main guns of the battleship. Once you are hit, the consequences will be quite serious. The worst thing is that it is obvious that they almost cannot get the opportunity to fire first on Chinese ships.

At this time, the Japanese naval officer who had been in a state of soybean stood up unexpectedly. Colonel Toshio Abe, the captain of the Shinno battleship, said in broken English: "God of General! If you don't object, we can let the Imperial Japanese Navy take on this temptation and attack mission!"

Well? The Japanese devils are willing to come out to be the vanguard army, or... cannon fodder? This is a bit interesting!

After the joint fleet was completely destroyed, there were only two unfinished battleships left in the entire Japanese navy, and some garbage destroyers that were not on the table. After the construction was completed by the Americans, even if it was not unrecognizable, it was actually far from the initial design. However, in order to take care of the Japanese's self-esteem, they deliberately wanted to pull the remaining Japanese as cannon fodder. The Americans generously accommodated their existence and continued to use all the Japanese as officers and soldiers of the two battleships.

It turns out that during this period, the Japanese were very low-key. Especially after the local land sinking, they trained very hard, but did not make any bold statements. Unexpectedly, they actually stood up today. What is the situation?

Mitchell was still relatively orthodox and frowned and said, "Colonel Abe, you should know how dangerous it is to do this. We are not clear about the tricks the Chinese are doing, but we can be sure that the warships that attack first will face the most violent attack! I personally do not want the only tinder that the Japanese Navy has to be extinguished!"

Colonel Toshio Abe's muscular cheeks stiffly pulled, showing a smile that was even worse than crying: "The soul of the Great Japanese Navy is forever in the hearts of Yamato men with the ocean. It does not change because of the survival of one or two warships. We believe that as long as there are brave ancestors who set excellent examples, countless warriors will emerge and inherit their will! Therefore, please! Please give this task to us!"

Major General Mitchell's chest churned when he heard it. His mind was so messy. What kind of weird thinking logic do the Japanese make sense?

He nodded helplessly: "Okay! I cannot refuse the enthusiasm of brave naval soldiers to fight. Then, next we will launch a tentative attack on the Chinese, with the two Yamato ships as the main force. However, I still want to remind you that once you face an irresistible crisis, please be sure to consider strategic avoidance depending on the situation. After all, you are not only the Japanese navy, but also the main force of justice and civilization in the entire world!"

This tactful flattery is like a bowl of boiled water in the cold winter. The warm Colonel Abe almost burst into tears and nodded hard with all his strength: "Hi! Please don't worry, General! We will not make unnecessary sacrifices! We will definitely not affect the overall strategy under the full force of fighting!"

The problem was solved like this. Mitchell and Chief of Staff Scott both breathed a sigh of relief. It was not that they deliberately wanted to plot against the Japanese, but that they had such an idea in their minds and were immediately rejected. It was not that they were noble and unbearable, but that they did not have much effect. Moreover, with the hatred between the Japanese and the Chinese, and the uncontrollable style, it would cause trouble if they spread it out.

But if they ask for it themselves, they can't stop it. After all, it's better to die as cannon fodder than to die of American boys? Besides, those two Yamato ships are also the thickest and thickest, and it's the most suitable to be a meat shield!

The strategy changed as a result, and the Japanese went back to issue orders to the point. No matter what, they still had to unify their opinions within them.

But when they were completely left with their own people, Colonel Kizo Kuramura, the captain of the "Hoizumi" battleship, couldn't help but object: "Colonel Abu, why did you make a promise easily? You should understand how dangerous it is to do so! Only we are the sparks left in the joint fleet. The two warships represent the face of the Emperor and Japan. You can't sacrifice just like this!"

The other officers also had a rough idea, and they stared at Toshio Abe with indignation and even gloomy eyes. One of them was as if he had no answer, so he drew his sword to chop people.

Speaking of which, although the Japanese Navy was deeply influenced by the British, the violent nature was no worse than the bastards of the Army. They didn't get the chance to vent. Now the country is over, and all kinds of tendencies of self-destruction and self-destruction are spreading. They are all restless and irritable, which is really like a powder barrel.

Toshio Abe obviously knew his danger and showed a contemptuous smile on his face: "Hmph! Do you think if I don't take the initiative to raise it, the American ghosts will let us go easily? Naive! Please don't forget that today we are just homeless people who need protection from the English ghosts. In some critical situations, we should make a decision. Do you really think that as pioneers, we will definitely be hit hard? Wrong!"

Well? Is there any other consideration here? Judging from his confident attitude, others are a little uncertain.

Toshio Abe dared not let them wait too long. These days, one and two are fucking impatient. They have been so encouraging that God knows that 25 will give him a moment of impulse?

Then he said: "It is now certain that what the Chinese Navy adopts is still a tactic of showing weakness and luring the enemy. It deliberately exposes the target, waits for us to attack, and then waits for work. With their accustomed to annihilation wars, a few ships will definitely take risks and provoke in the early stage. Therefore, what we are most likely to encounter is just a small number of enemy ships, and their combat effectiveness will not be too high!"

"Well, there's some reason!"

"Yehe! It's very consistent with the Chinese people's usual style! Colonel Abe can see it very clearly!"

"So, are we really no danger?"

Colonel Qizang of the Gu Village still frowned and refused to relax every doubt.

Toshio Abe proudly smiled: "How is it possible? Any opportunity comes with risks! But as long as we are determined in our hearts, not easily misled by superficial temptations, do not pursue temporary achievements, and take risks to pursue or even attempt to completely annihilate the Chinese bait fleet, then the possibility of us being fully attacked is very small!"

"Sweeping Daisna! In this case, we actually take the initiative to attack, which is much safer than passively allowing the Americans to join the main attack team! It is more free and flexible! Yehe! Very good!"

Thumbs up and all kinds of praise made Toshio Abe's face turn red.

At first glance, the colonel of the Gu Village seemed to be that way. It was quite safe. But for some reason, he always felt uneasy in his heart, but he just couldn't figure out what the problem was.

The Japanese have reached an agreement within the Japanese. They take the initiative to fight against the enemy ships and fight a battle while preserving their own strength. As for the main forces of the enemy who are waiting to take action, let the Americans deal with it themselves. They will never easily fall into being cannon fodder.

Therefore, this kind of collusion is always easy to go wrong. Japanese people who are unfamiliar with dogs are always calculating how to sell off their allies and counterattack their masters at any time and anywhere, and they are restless. Whoever treats them as friends and subordinates will sooner or later be cheated to death by them.

The relatively straight Americans really couldn't see the various calculations below. After the offensive strategy was prepared, the 19th Task Force finally drove out of the anchorage for two days after repairing, and divided into two groups, heading north from both sides of the Andaman Islands.

This seems to be very risky and is easily defeated by others. But on the other hand, it is not the case. The number of ships in the 19th Fleet is too large, and it is very wasteful to squeeze together and only attack surfaces cannot be dispelled, and it is easier to be taken away by others... It sounds a bit discouraged, but this is the reality.

After dispersing, the fleet included two light aircraft carriers. Entering the narrow Andaman Sea, one blocking the enemy's retreat. The other was just enough to support Yangon, providing artillery support to the army on the Peninsula and even Myanmar, and receiving strong support from the roadbed aviation force. It can be said that it can kill the numbers in one fell swoop.

The main force of the fleet was led by two Yamato ships and cooperated with hundreds of fighter jets as protection. It was fierce and mighty, and was careless and straight towards the north!

In the northern part of the Bay of Bengal, near the water surface of about 200 nautical miles on the coast, the main force of the South China Sea Fleet led by Chen Ce quickly obtained the news and immediately stopped the maritime attack on Chittagong. On the one hand, it gathered the main force to launch a counterattack attitude, and on the other hand, it also sent a fleet of aircraft to first launch an air interception. The entire platoon was arranged in a proper manner.

All the reactions were the same as what the US military learned that the Chinese had strong reconnaissance and battlefield grasping intelligence, so they were not surprised by the changes they responded to when they moved here. It was very stable, forming a crab-shaped formation, two Yamato ships were right pliers, two Iowa-class battleships were left forwards, and two Essex-class aircraft carriers were towed behind in the middle as the main body. Destroyers and cruisers mixed with inside and outside to provide layers of protection, forming a three-dimensional posture with the Air Force and advancing forward.

This time, neither side wanted to hide. After waiting for so long, weren’t you just looking forward to today’s violent collision?

At the beginning of the operation, the two sides were nearly a thousand nautical miles apart. Major General Mitchell asked the right wing to cross the Ten Degrees Strait first, and the main force advanced northward, which delayed at least two days, so it was already four days after he actually hedging and reaching the distance between the fighter jets.

For four days, it was a torment to let the coalition generals on the land live like a year! They could not wait for good news even after waiting for good news, but the pressure of attack was getting stronger and stronger day by day. Major General Scott's indigenous soldiers and vassals had been passively slacking off. If they dragged on, they might even collapse.

Alexander and MacArthur urged three telegrams a day: "You guys should attack quickly!"

Four days later, the first confrontation finally began! The US military faced a small number of ultimate zero fighters, which was also the peak of propeller. The pilots who learned their lessons were scattered very well. The leading ones were the best-skilled people. Several aircraft were stubbornly propelled from an altitude of more than 8,000 meters. It was too unreliable to say that the Japanese-deracious aircraft were too unreliable, with thin skin and large fillings, and the cold protection was too poor. The pilots could not withstand the cold wind in the high altitude in leather jackets!

But who made Japanese aircraft occupy a small space? The aircraft carrier could have installed seven or eight or even more than a dozen aircraft at the last time, which is very critical in ocean-going combat! Especially, the ultimate zero battle designed by the Japanese devils, the performance is really good!

Their approach was correct. With seven or eight kilometers, they were focused on their attention, they saw a pre-emptive combat bomb. The pilot, who had sufficient experience, maneuvered the plane that was almost at its maximum speed without saying a word, and sprinkled a bunch of inducing missiles from the bomb hanger.

Not to mention, this move works! Except for a bad guy who was shot down, the other leading aircraft were safe and sound!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the fighter jets behind rushed forward and immediately launched a dog fighting technique to catch the opponents. The f7f twin-engine "Tiger Cat" fighter jet, which had been hiding in the second wave, drew cold numbers and rushed out. Relying on the strong horsepower, the thick skin and flesh, the surprise soldiers emerged and surrounded and suppressed!

Such a strong guy with four 20mm cannons and four 12.7mm heavy machine guns, one can withstand three or four ultimate zero battles, and rushed out like a hawk, instantly with a mighty spirit of reversing the battlefield!

They will ambush, and of course the Chinese are not without a single move. The faster and more powerful "Tiger Shark" fighter jets rushed towards them and fired fighting bullets at the same time, suppressing the US military's advantage again.
