Chapter 198, come on, hurt each other
The two fleets transferred from the Atlantic Ocean to supplement the Pacific Fleet were still useless, and they were unable to compare with the Japanese Navy, so they are always shrinking at present, waiting for an opportunity, and some of the warships that can be repaired have been sent to the shipyard for repair, but they cannot be repaired, and they have been dismantled and melted down.

It's just that Japan will let the US military build warships smoothly? Japan's First Fleet directly drove its aircraft carriers to the door of the US imperialists' homes, and the shipyards on the east coast were bombed on a large scale; this was Yamamoto's plan, and the United States must not be given the opportunity to build warships, and the United States was very aware of its industrial strength, so he chose to bomb the US shipyards directly.
The salvaged Enterprise, while repairing in the shipyard, was again hit hard by Japanese bombers, and the freshly laid deck was blown up with sawdust, and then fell crookedly into the water, waiting to be pulled away.
The arrogant attitude of the Japanese army this time, unlike the bombing of Oahu, completely aroused the anger of the United States, and at the same time, Luo Cripple ordered that more than half of the fleet in the Atlantic Ocean be transferred back, and that it would be desperate to fight with Japan, and the shipyard should be moved to the west coastline at the same time and built there.
However, in addition to eliminating the threat to themselves, the Japanese army's other intention in such an unscrupulous bombing is to warn the United States to withdraw its troops and stop fighting, knowing that I can reach your family.
This threat was like the mustache firing V1, V2 missiles at the UK, forcing them to withdraw from the Allies.
It's just that things backfired, and the more this happened, the more it aroused the anger of the United States, and it put on a posture of desperately trying to fight Japan.
Japan is not afraid, otherwise there would not be the Pearl Harbor incident, and since you are going to fight the current bombing of the port, then I will accompany you at any time.
After Lu Qiang got the news, he laughed on the spot, he didn't expect that the huge American imperialist in the future would be bullied so badly by the current Japan.
In order to deal with the Atlantic Fleet transferred by the United States, Japan dropped the main forces of the Combined Fleet and prepared to fight with the US imperialists, so that the US imperialists would be completely defeated and convinced, so that the US imperialists would not dare to have any thoughts.
The Japanese side thought very well and took action, and then there was the main force of the Combined Fleet to the east.
Hundreds of huge warships and hundreds of ships of various types sailed mightily to find the Atlantic Fleet transferred by the US military.
While the combined fleet of the Japanese army was looking for the American fleet, the American fleet was also looking for them.
At present, the United States is desperate to win a war and raise the morale of the whole country, and now many people have a pessimistic attitude, believing that the Axis powers are invincible.

Time: November 8, 1940, morning.
Location: Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean.
Surroundings: Endless sea, except for the sea and the sea, there are no islands: southeast wind level 4.
Characters: U.S. Atlantic Main Fleet and Japanese Combined Main Fleet.
This morning is destined to be a moment to be remembered. In the South Pacific, all the main forces of the US military from the Atlantic are here, and some of the remaining warships of the Pacific Fleet are all grouped together and go to the Japanese Combined Fleet to settle accounts.
The United States is at the world's leading level in radar, and Japan's radar is simply scum, although because they were beaten up by Lu Qiang, they only remembered to develop radar, but now their radar research is still blank.
The radar ships of the US military were full of antennas, and from dozens of nautical miles away, they found that something seemed to be coming towards them on the sea.
At first, they didn't pay attention, but the closer they got, and the radar display became more and more obvious, the radar crew immediately reported the matter to the fleet commander.
And the commander of the fleet, out of prudence, immediately gave the order to the aircraft carrier and take off the reconnaissance plane to see what was going on.
The reconnaissance plane roared out of the deck of the aircraft carrier and flew forward.
The Japanese Combined Fleet did not expect that the main fleet of the US forces was in front of them, but out of caution, their reconnaissance planes were always in a state of release. The radar is not up to par, and they can only replace it with reconnaissance aircraft.
The reconnaissance plane, which was circling the fleet, suddenly found a black dot flying towards the fleet, and he did not receive any news that other planes had taken off, so whose plane was this oncoming plane, and was it the US military?
In response to the Japanese pilot's speculation, the plane was indeed from the US military, and the white five-pointed stars on the wings explained its origin.
"Moxi Moxi, the US military reconnaissance plane was spotted." The pilot on the Japanese reconnaissance plane immediately picked up the radio and reported to the command ship. As a reconnaissance aircraft, it is rare to be equipped with a radio.
When the Japanese discovered the American troops, the American troops on the opposite side also discovered him and immediately reported the situation to the Atlantic Fleet.
Now both sides know that they have a fleet in front of them, but the specific number and scale are not yet known on both sides.
Although both were reconnaissance planes, they were both equipped with two self-defense machine guns, the 7.62mm caliber of the US military and the 6.7mm caliber of the Japanese army. However, the US reconnaissance planes were thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and the 6.7mm machine guns of the Japanese reconnaissance planes could hardly cause much damage. And the Japanese planes still took a light route, and the speed and climb of the aircraft and other performance were very good, but the armor was almost equal to zero.
But both fighters are considered very good, and both have advantages and disadvantages.
The US reconnaissance planes are rough and thick-skinned and durable, but they are slow. The Japanese reconnaissance planes were light and nimble, but they were not armored, and they were the kind that could be defeated in one hit.
The Japanese reconnaissance plane circled the US reconnaissance plane, stealing a few shots from time to time, leaving a few bullet holes in the US reconnaissance plane, but unfortunately, it could not cause any substantial damage to the US reconnaissance plane.
After a simple exchange of copies, the sides dispersed and returned separately, after all, they were reconnaissance aircraft, not fighters. Now they all know that there is a fleet ahead of them, but the exact number is not yet known.
But it didn't matter, after the reconnaissance planes returned, the aircraft carriers of both sides immediately took off their fighters and went to the front to have a look, followed by bombers and torpedo planes carrying aerial bombs and torpedoes.
Over the Pacific Ocean, the planes taken off by the United States and Japan soon encountered, and then an air battle ensued.
In terms of aircraft, it was obvious that the Japanese army had an advantage, and although the Japanese Air Force, which had withstood the whipping of the land force, still embarked on the zero-type route, it was stronger than the US carrier-based aircraft, and it had an extremely superior advantage in the process of climbing. At the same time, the U.S. military did not know much about Japan's flight, so it suffered a lot of losses. (To be continued.) )
