Historically, the Pacific War was launched in 41 years, but now, there is a big difference from history.

When the whole of Europe was occupied by Germany, the United States already felt a huge threat, and if the United States wanted to maintain world peace, it had to support Churchill.

As Rommel continued to attack, Churchill continued to move east in the colonies, and now fled to India, and the United States had to go through the Pacific if it wanted to support Churchill.

In this way, the contradictions with the island countries are irreconcilable, and the last maritime conflict is a microcosm, and at the same time, on the Asian battlefield, the United States' support for China is also quite large, and for the island countries, they will either retreat from China and shrink back on their original territory, or they will start a war with the United States.

When the United States freezes the funds of the island countries and refuses to continue trade with the island countries, the island countries will not be able to obtain the resources of steel and oil from the United States, and then the island countries will only have one way to go.

War!

At the same time, Germany's instigation is also indispensable, the island country is short of oil, Germany can support, the island country is short of bombers, Germany can also provide it, just add firewood to the side, burn the island country to the point of fever, and throw blood at the United States.

With the continuous improvement of the preparations of the island nation, the war against the United States has finally been staged!

The sea conditions in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans are different, and many times, it is calmer here.

Therefore, the design of the aircraft carrier is also different, for example, the aircraft carrier of the island country does not use a closed hangar, the lower deck is open, so that the weight is reduced, and when needed, it can even take off directly from the lower deck.

This aircraft carrier was originally a battleship, which was modified during construction, and the most recent refit, which was carried out in 38 years, made the Akagi appear more modern, in line with the take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft.

This huge warship with a displacement of 40,000 tons is the pride of the island nation's navy.

It's just that, from the eyes of German advisers, this aircraft carrier still has big flaws, the bridge on the left side is the biggest failure, it is still an ordinary straight deck, and the angled deck is not used, and the sortie efficiency of the fighters is not high.

Now, there are waves less than half a meter high on the sea, and the navigation is quite smooth for the 40,000-ton warship.

On the bridge, Vice Admiral Nagumo Zhongyi held a telescope and looked at the sea in the distance, this is really a good weather for sailing!

"Report, telegram received, no fish caught."

Holding the telegram, Nagumo Zhong said to the German adviser who had always been on the side: "Advisor Rudel, this proposal of yours is really very good!" ”

When German submarines appeared in the Pacific Ocean, the U.S. Navy was really stimulated and constantly searched the sea, trying to blow up the German submarines.

After that, there was a misfire, and in the end it was almost impossible to deal with, and the enthusiasm of the US Navy also cooled, and at the same time, the German submarine that made trouble seemed to have disappeared, just trying to give the US Navy the blame.

After that, the U.S. Navy did not search much more, and their freighter was no longer threatened.

In the vast ocean, no matter how huge the fleet is, it is only a small dot, and the naval fleet of the entire island country is sailing in the wind and waves.

At the same time, how to stay on a voyage of several thousand nautical miles without being detected by the US Navy has always been a difficult problem, and now this problem has been solved.

That's the use of fishing boats!

Fishing boats circulate the naval route in advance, observing the sea while fishing, and immediately raising the alarm if the U.S. Navy is spotted.

Now this does not catch a fish, which means that everything in the vicinity is safe, and the fish is the code name of the US Navy, and different fish represent different warships.

"The Emperor blesses you." Rudel said with a smile: "Now, we need to let the pilots conserve their strength, take good care of the plane, and wait for the final battle." ”

As he was talking, he saw a large patrol plane in the sky from a distance, slowly flying over.

This is definitely a large aircraft, and the lower part of the fuselage is the shape of the bottom of the ship, the wing is an upper single wing, four engines are deployed on the top, and the propeller is high above the water, which can prevent it from being damaged by the sea during take-off and landing.

This is the large seaplane unique to the island country, the Kawanishi Type 97 flying boat. (The island nation is called an airship, not a seaplane.) ）

The navies of the island countries have always regarded the US Navy as their opponent, believing that the two militaries must strike first in a decisive battle, so they have asked for long-range patrol seaplanes to be dispatched to ensure victory in the western Pacific.

In 1933, the Japanese Navy entrusted the task of development to the Kawanishi Company, requiring the seaplane to carry a crew of nine and the necessary armament, cruise at a speed of 222 km / h, and have a range of 4,630 km.

In January 1938, this aircraft was adopted by the Navy and named the 97 Grand Boat.

It has a weight of more than 20 tons, can fly at sea for a long time, and at the same time, when it lands on the surface, it can also rely on submarines or warships to replenish it, which is simply a good helper for long-distance voyages.

I saw that it was far away, with a fluent gliding line, slowly lowering in altitude, and when the bottom of the ship came into contact with the sea, it splashed into the waves, and the pontoons on both sides of the wing also slapped the sea water from time to time.

The speed of the flying boat became slower and slower, and finally, the propeller stopped turning, and the flying boat, continuing to slide forward, sliding, by this time, it had become a ship.

When the airboat stopped sliding, an inflatable dinghy was lowered on it, and an officer rowed the dinghy towards the carrier.

Soon, he rowed to the side of the Akagi, and with the help of others, he got on the Akagi and went straight to the bridge.

"Report, on this flight, we detected a special situation." The officer came up and hurriedly said: "We pretended to be a civilian airliner and photographed the warships inside Pearl Harbor, and we found that the three aircraft carriers were not present. ”

The officer took out the photographs he had washed in the dark room of the patrol plane during his return.

The Type 97 aircraft has a large interior space, which is also so that the pilots can have sufficient physical strength during the long flight, and there is also a dark room specially used to wash photos.

Recently, the defense of the Pearl Harbor base suddenly became tighter, and it was not easy for spies from the island countries to infiltrate it, and the photos taken this time were even more useful.

The biggest targets of this attack on Pearl Harbor were the three aircraft carriers of the United States, but now, these three aircraft carriers are not there!

This sudden change immediately made Nanyun Zhong stunned.
