Chapter 1518: The Secret of the Container

Yang Honglie smiled and said secretly: "Look, this time the little devil will definitely have to carry a big heel again." ”

Zhong Lingfeng was thoughtful, and then exclaimed: "Hainan Island, you mean Hainan Island?" ”

Yang Honglie was noncommittal, his eyes looked at the deck through the porthole, and the fighters and bombers below were rushing out of the runway, and countless planes had emerged in the sky, and the group of planes was swarming towards the southeast.

The Guawa Sea, the port of Batakan in southern Borneo, is home to the Pacific Seventh Fleet of the Mi Army.

Aircraft carrier battle groups with three aircraft carriers as the core spread all over the harbor, and dozens of cruisers and destroyers swooped down on the port of Batakan in the wind and waves.

Countless fighters and bombers in the sky formed a huge air formation, which was flying over Batakan.

Since the fall of Singapore, the Guawa Sea has been under the grip of China's Pacific Fleet and the United States Pacific Fleet, and the navies of the island countries have completely lost their sea supremacy, and the aircraft carrier fleet does not dare to enter this sea area at all, and the scattered patrol ships and submarines have no way to resist the aircraft carrier battle group, so they can only flee when they hear the wind.

As for air defense, the island army has only the Fourth Flying Division in the Dutch East Indies, and there are only more than 600 fighters of various types, but it has to face the frantic attacks of more than 10 aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft of the allied forces from three directions, and the numerical disadvantage has forced the island army to retreat to the air battle battlefield and face this air battle with absolute range superiority.

As a result, the entire perimeter of the port was basically undefended, and all defense systems could only rely on shore-based artillery.

Not long after, the dense fleet of planes launched a wanton and indiscriminate bombing of Batakan, and among the planes was a group of long-range bombers from the airports of East Timor and Palembang, which were quite large-scale, and the entire port was turned into a sea of fire, and the clouds of smoke covered the sky.

However, the planes of the island army can only choose to sneak attack on the periphery, attracting the planes of the Mi army to go deep and then encircle and annihilate them.

Although the Seventh Pacific Fleet of the Mi Army was only formed last year, the Mi Navy has a long history, and the officers and men are all elite in a hundred battles, and their mature naval combat experience and strong national support have allowed them to enter a state of onslaught from the very beginning.

Relying on the cover of aircraft, all types of heavy firepower capital ships went to the front to carry out in-depth precision strikes on the shore-based firepower points of Batakan.

Of course, the little devil can not only be beaten passively, Batakan is a mature port, the geographical location is very important, therefore, the shore-based firepower network should not be underestimated, all kinds of huge artillery hidden in the strong fortifications, and by no means a few heavy bombs can be solved by the Mi army.

As a matter of fact, the attack of the Mi army was frantically counterattacked by the island army, and from time to time there would be planes of the Mi army falling in the sky with thick smoke, and the scene on the sea was also grand, and the shells of the island army were as dense as a net, setting off a monstrous wave and tearing the warships of the Mi army apart.

Since the Pearl Harbor incident, the US Navy has hated the island army to the core.

In the subsequent Battle of Midway, the island army was defeated, and the Mi army pulled back a game, followed by a large-scale island-hopping tactic, which beat the entire Dutch East Indies to the ground, although the Mi army did not succeed in the end, but the island army's hatred for them became deeper and deeper.

Therefore, both sides of this battle have fought with full strength, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a battle to vent anger, and the battle has entered a white-hot stage at the beginning.

Although the air defense and coastal defense of the island army in front of them are not satisfactory, as early as a few days ago, the southern fleet of the island army has rushed to support, so before the southern fleet of the island army appears, no one can judge who will become the winner of this battle.

Just when the Mi army was frantically attacking the port of Batakan, the eastern coast of Kalimantan in the Dutch East Indies.

The three-carrier strike group has crossed the Makassar Strait and is heading towards Balikpapan Bay.

On dozens or hundreds of ships of various types, plaster flags were waving in the wind, and the aircraft carrier fleet was moving forward at full speed, with the target direction pointing directly at the Guawa Sea.

At Balikpapan Port, several large cargo ships are nervously unloading, and huge containers are lifted off the freighters and loaded directly onto flatbed heavy trucks that have been waiting at the dock for a long time.

A short time later, a huge team of cars set off, dragging huge containers to the military airfield dozens of kilometers away.

At the same time, the same scene was playing out at the port of Milley on the west coast of the Dutch East Indies, where a German-made heavy flatbed truck with a huge container was hauling a huge container, all the way to the heart of the Dutch East Indies.

In the waters around Andu Beach and Dangan Reef in the Nansha Islands, hundreds of warships are scattered and plaster flags hunt in the wind, and the first task force and the second task force of the southern fleet of the island army are hiding here.

The redundant carrier-based aircraft and ground aviation fighters of more than 10 Allied aircraft carriers, coupled with the terrifying whaling fork anti-ship missiles of the Chinese Pacific Fleet, caused the southern fleet of the island army to dare not act rashly and rashly sailed to meet the enemy.

Of course, the main thing is that a huge conspiracy is brewing in Ozawa Jizaburo, and in his opinion, this is a battle to annihilate the naval strength of the Allied forces, and if successful, the island army will regain air and sea supremacy in the Pacific.

The aircraft carrier Xianghe, the flagship of the Southern Fleet.

Commander Jizaburo Ozawa was sitting in the headquarters and smoking a cigarette leisurely, as if he was not worried about the three-way attack of the Allied forces in front of him.

Sitting across from him was Vice Admiral Takakijiro Onishi, Chief of Staff of the Southern Fleet.

Vice Admiral Takijiro Onishi, graduated from the Naval Academy of the island country, and successively served as the commander of the 1st Air Fleet and the deputy director of the Military Command Department. The advocate of the victory of the air force is also a complete militarist, and he is known as the "Shura Outer Way" in the military circles of the island countries.

In just a few days, the island army dispatched more than 2,000 planes and dropped a total of more than 1,500 tons of bombs, turning the entire city of Chongqing into rubble and ashes, causing heavy casualties among the people and countless property losses.

According to post-war statistics, during this period, 4,149 Chongqing citizens were killed, 5,411 were injured, and 6,952 houses were damaged. At that time, the streets of Chongqing were in ruins, and the once prosperous southwestern city was directly turned into a hell on earth, and all of this was due to the island military aviation led by Onishi Takijiro.

"Onishi-kun, do you think the 14th Army of the Locust Army can stop the crazy attack of the China-Mikrish-British coalition army in the past three days?" Jizaburo Ozawa flicked the cigarette ash, although the question was a little solemn, but his expression was relaxed, and he didn't know where his confidence came from.

Onishi Takijiro smiled slightly and said, "Ozawa-kun, in fact, you are already confident, is this testing me?" However, I am happy to answer you this question, not to mention the strength of the 14th Army, the landing sites chosen by the coalition forces are all our important ports, these ports are fortress-type defenses, and the shore-based firepower is abundant, and they can never be destroyed by a few rounds of bombing. And three days later, a huge net will be spread out against them, and it will be a miracle that they will escape from the port alive. ”
