This order alone gave the Soviet army at least 400,000 more so-called troops. Although these troops can only do a little bit of digging trenches or cooking food, they can be killed with bullets......

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Konev finally understood Stalin's determination to hold on to Moscow, and he finally understood what kind of burden he was carrying.

"Every street can't be discarded! The subway and sewers have to hold on until the last minute! There are no innocents in this war...... That's the order, got it? Stalin looked at Konev and asked.

"Got it! Comrade Stalin, the great leader! Gritting his teeth, Konev finally stood up and saluted and replied.

"Excellent! Go to work! For the Motherland! Comrade Konev! Stalin waved his hand and commanded Konev.

On the outskirts of Moscow, countless laborers are digging anti-tank trenches day and night, preparing all kinds of defensive positions.

Farther away, the reconnaissance units of the German armored forces were unfolding, and behind them smoke and dust were billowing out, and hundreds of thousands of German elite troops were marching forward in a mighty way.

……

In the Pacific Ocean, very far from Moscow, white-hot battles are on the verge of breaking out. American carrier-based aircraft have already sorted, and Japanese carrier-based aircraft have already arrived.

In the skies of Midway, the second fierce battle officially began. The Zero battle rolled gracefully in the sky, smashing one US P-40 fighter jet after another into a sieve.

From time to time in the sky, a P-40 fighter jet dragged a long black smoke towards the earth. The plane's engine roared so violently that it hit the ground and exploded into a cloud of fireworks.

Even though the losses were heavy, the US Army Air Force did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and still took off a large number of fighters to desperately intercept the Japanese bombers.

Although Nagumo Tadaichi, who was far away on the island, and Yamamoto Isoroku, who had not entered the battle circle, could not be seen, the Japanese pilots on the front line still smelled danger.

Although Midway is a strategic priority, the deployment of 100 aircraft is a bit excessive.

What's more, according to the analysis of the current situation, there are at least about 500 American aircraft on the islands, and the number of fighters exceeds 300!

Where is this defending an island, it is clearly preparing for a decisive battle with the main force of the Japanese army! This is the case with the visual reflection of the troops, which does not need to be analyzed by anyone.

"Second Lieutenant Kato...... There are too many enemy planes! We can't get close to the airfield on the island......" while flying his own plane to dodge, one pilot complained to his commander.

Second Lieutenant Kato was also depressed, he was ordered to fly a plane to bomb Midway, but twice in a row, he could only look at the beach of Midway from a distance but couldn't get close......

There are so many planes in the United States that it makes people's scalps tingle. Although the escort Zero fighters are brave, they are invincible with two fists after all.

What made the Japanese naval aviation pilots most depressed was that although the Zero fighter had a large range, there was no qualitative leap in the bomb load.

Therefore, even if they did not run out of fuel, they had no choice but to run out of ammunition first in the face of the numerical superiority of American aircraft, and they could only be forced to return.

The second bombing of Midway Island was still fruitless because of the presence of radar and army aviation aircraft.

What made the Japanese Navy even more depressed was that in this attack, 3 Type 97 carrier-based attack planes participating in the battle were shot down, and the Zero fighters lost as many as 10 planes!

In a battle, it was only two sorties, and more than 20 pilots were lost, which was enough for Nagumo Zhongyi to be depressed for a long time.

What's more, he didn't even achieve decent results, and these loyal and brave samurai of His Majesty the Emperor really died worthlessly.

"Send a telegram to Commander Yamamoto...... Pilots can no longer be consumed like this, our losses are too great! Nagumo Tadaichi, who was standing on the aircraft carrier Akagi with his hands behind his back, commanded depressedly.

You must know that every pilot in his unit is a treasure, and they are all veterans who have undergone rigorous training and have fought in China and the Pacific theater.

It is very troublesome to replenish such veterans, and good things go by day, and Japan's comprehensive national strength does not allow such elite pilots to be replenished frequently.

Unlike infantry, an air force pilot is a high-tech service. In Japan in 1941, there were really not many young people who knew science, read books, and could understand flying.

Machinery was still a novelty in Japan at that time; As in the United States, many people have their own private jets, which has never happened in Japan.

So don't look at Japan's aggressive expansion in Asia, it has no primitive industrial accumulation, nor does it have a huge volume and heritage, and it has only become an upstart with the wisdom of two generations.

Against this backdrop, Japan's elite pilots can be lost, but they must be replaced at least twice as many as the American elite.

This is also the reason why Japan advocated a kamikaze special force in the later period, one plane for one ship.

In fact, Japan has thought about this for a long time, but it can't achieve the goal with elite pilots, so it can only be "exchanged" for flight apprentices who are not afraid of death.

Yamamoto Isoroku, who received Nagumo Tadaichi's telegram, was also anxious, his fleet was advancing and was still unable to exert its strength.

35 minutes to go...... This is the thought in Yamamoto's mind. He looked anxiously at the sea in the distance, and the uneasiness in his heart deepened.

"Two ......," he said, repeatedly thinking about the fact that the two bombings were counterattacked by the US military.

The elite Japanese pilots could not do such a thing as retreating in fear of battle, and even in the face of twice as strong an enemy, they dared to attack.

In other words, the report about the huge number of American aircraft is the truth! Why did the Americans deploy so many planes at Midway, Yamamoto fifty-six, of course, thought of it.

"The Americans judged the direction of our attack! They're going to fight here! Having figured it out, Yamamoto's eyes widened and he realized the problem he was about to face.

"The American fleet is nearby! It's a definite thing! He looked at his men and commanded, "Let the fleet send more reconnaissance planes at once!" Search all the nearby seas! ”

"The American fleet is nearby! It must be nearby! Find them! Find them before they attack! Like a madman, Yamamoto shouted with a wave of his arms.
