Chapter 605: The United States and Japan Attack
"Report, the discovery of the Huaxia reconnaissance aircraft."
The reconnaissance planes of the Middle East naval base monitored the US and Japanese naval forces around the clock and followed them for two days; this morning, the weather was very clear, and there were no clouds in the sky, so the reconnaissance planes were detected by US warships.
"Hmm??? The Huaxia reconnaissance planes immediately sent fighter planes to downgrade and shoot them down, so that they could not expose our whereabouts. U.S. Navy Pacific Commander Nimitz said.
"Evacuate, discovered."
The two US fighter planes soon took to the air, and as soon as they took off, the pilots of the Huaxia reconnaissance planes spotted them. Previously, they could use the flight altitude to evade the enemy, but now the US military is equipped with imitation J-1s, and the reconnaissance aircraft have lost their altitude advantage. So as soon as they spotted the enemy aircraft, they began to evacuate.
"Report to the base, we were bitten by two enemy aircraft, ask for reinforcements, ask for reinforcements."
The two US fighter planes kept chasing the reconnaissance plane and vowed not to give up until the reconnaissance plane was shot down. The reconnaissance plane could not get rid of it for a while, and could only start to ask for help from the base.
Buzz
The three J-1s, who were patrolling near the base, received the notice from the base and immediately changed their course and went straight to the place where the reconnaissance plane was.
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Half an hour later, they spotted the US fighter plane, which was chasing the reconnaissance plane, and immediately launched an attack from the flank. Bullets grazed near U.S. fighter jets, forcing them to change course to dodge.
"Report, the Huaxia fighters arrived in time, and the number is greater than ours. For the sake of safety, the fighter squad has begun to return home. ”
"Forget it, it is estimated that this reconnaissance plane has been with us for a few days, and it has already told Huaxia about our whereabouts. Let our fighters return and land, and ignore them. ”
Nimitz gave the order to return. Now they are in the depths of the Indian Ocean, and the air force of the Chinese Middle East naval base does not threaten them at all. Even if they were able to hit themselves, they would definitely not have enough fuel to return, so Nimitz was relieved.
"Report, General Yamamoto of the Japanese army asked where we were and when we could attack."
"Call back General Yamamoto, just say that our army has entered the designated sea area and is expected to launch an attack tomorrow morning." Nimitz said.
"Yo Xi, order our fleet to replenish immediately, and set sail as soon as nightfall."
Yamamoto was very happy when he saw Nimitz's callback. In order to avoid being detected by the Chinese, his navy concentrated on the east side of the main island. This greatly increased his voyage to the coast of China, so he needed to set sail in advance.
Whining
The next morning, as soon as the fighters of the Malaysian Marine Corps had finished breakfast, the reconnaissance post spotted the enemy plane, and for a time the sound of air defense sirens sounded at the position.
"Order the troops to immediately enter the bomb shelters, and order the air defense units to be concealed and standby."
Xue Yue, the commander-in-chief of the Philippine and Malaysian regions, immediately received a telegram from the Malay regional defense forces and immediately issued an order for defense.
"Report, General Xue Yue reported that the US and Japanese air forces launched an attack on our army's Malaysian position." The telegram was soon delivered to the General Headquarters in Peiping.
"Order Xue Yue to withstand the opponent's attack and wait for reinforcements from our navy." Chen Jinghui gave the order.
"Call Commander Chen immediately and ask them where the navy is and when it will be in Malaysia." Chen Jinghui asked about the situation of the navy.
"Pick me up Commander Li of the Southwest Military Region."
"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, it's through."
"Hey, is it Commander Li, I'm Chen Jinghui."
"Hello Deputy Commander-in-Chief."
"Commander Lee, the US-Japanese coalition forces have begun to attack the positions of the Malaysian marines, and now I have ordered Li to immediately rush to the Vietnamese naval base to do a good job in the defense of the Vietnamese naval base and the surrounding coastal areas, and at the same time do a good job in the defense of the naval base in the Middle East to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on the base."
"Yes, the deputy commander-in-chief can rest assured that he will complete the task and will never let the enemy go ashore without a single soldier."
"Okay."
The US and Japanese navies began to attack, but the Chinese navy had not yet arrived, and Chen Jinghui had to make strict arrangements to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on the naval base. These are the frontier posts of East Asia and the Middle East, and they are also the foundation of China's control of these regions, and their security must be guaranteed.
"Report, Commander Chen reports, they still need half a day to arrive in Malaysia."
"Order Commander Chan to move forward at full speed, and if necessary, the Air Force can be activated to relieve the pressure on the Malaysian Marine Corps." Chen Jinghui ordered.
"Someone, order Xue Yue to immediately build two temporary airports in the Philippines and Malaysia." Chen Jinghui ordered again.
If naval aviation had gone into battle first, they would certainly not have enough fuel to return home. Therefore, Chen Jinghui wanted Xue Yue to set up a temporary airfield on land for these planes to land temporarily.
"Jinghui, the United States and Japan have attacked Malaysia." This is the commander-in-chief coming.
"Well, it started an hour ago. They dispatched all their planes at once and carried out air strikes on the Malaysian positions of our troops. Chen Jinghui said.
"Has Xue Yue done a good job of defense, what is the current situation of the troops?" The commander-in-chief asked.
"I have already dug the bomb shelter in advance, but with such a large-scale air raid by the enemy, the bomb shelter may not last long. Now our Navy needs another half a day, and this half day is to hope that the soldiers of the Marine Corps will be able to withstand the pressure. Chen Jinghui said.
"Do you want to send air forces from the mainland to reinforce Southeast Asia?" said the commander-in-chief.
"Not now, although it is said that this is only the United States and Japan, but no one dares to guarantee that other countries will not participate. We can only use the navy for now, and the defenses of other places cannot be moved for the time being. Chen Jinghui said.
"Well, your analysis is reasonable, it seems that the pressure on the Navy this time is very high, I hope they can withstand it." said the commander-in-chief.
"How long is it until the combat area is reached."
The commander-in-chief and the others are still discussing how to better defend, and Commander Chen of the Navy will really be in a hurry. The enemy had already begun to attack, but they had not yet arrived, and the navy had been around when attacking the Philippines at that time, so the total number of air forces stationed in the Philippines and Malaysia was only one group, 24 aircraft. This number is simply not enough compared to the number of air forces of the enemy's six aircraft carrier fleets.
"Report, we are still four hours away from the battlefield. In less than an hour, our air force can enter the war. But due to distance willingness, most likely they will not be able to return to the carrier. ”
"I know that the Deputy Commander-in-Chief has taken this into account. Ordered our naval aviation to take off in two hours and rush to the battlefield in Malaysia. Commander Chen gave the order.
"Commander-in-chief, let's fight."
At this moment, at the headquarters where Xue Yue was located in the Philippines, the commanders of the air forces stationed in Malaysia and the Philippines kept asking Xue Yue to let them join the war.
"No, the number of enemy troops is much larger than yours, and the performance of the aircraft is similar to that of our J-1, you will be sent to death if you go up, absolutely not." Xue Yue said.
"Commander-in-chief, now it's war, we're the Air Force, and our battlefield is in the air. Now that the enemy has violated our airspace and attacked our positions, we, as the Huaxia Air Force, should defend the security of our Huaxia airspace, and no matter how strong the enemy is, we must go there, and this is our mission. Said the head of the Air Force.
"No, it just doesn't work, you will never be allowed to do this. One of your regiments has 24 planes, and the enemy, more than 200, more than ten times as many as you. Xue Yue just didn't agree.
"Report, Malaysian positions report that a third of our bomb shelters have been blown up, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties. Moreover, some of the enemy's warships have begun to approach the coast, and there is an intention to land, and the Malay is asking for air reinforcements. ”
"Commander-in-chief, now the enemy is suppressing our army in the air too much, and if they land, our army will not be able to defend at all. Although we had anti-aircraft battalions, they were able to withstand the attack of enemy naval guns. The commander-in-chief, all members of the Air Regiment, please fight. ”
The Malay enemy had only been attacking for more than two hours, and there was a problem with the defense system of the Marine Corps, and the commander of the air force could not wait for a moment when he heard the news.
"Commander-in-chief, or let them go, if it goes on like this, when the enemy lands, we will be in trouble." The staff officer said.
"No, I can't call the shots, I need to ask for instructions, you wait a minute." Xue Yue didn't dare to joke about an air regiment, knowing that if they went up, they would be sent to death, so he let them go up. So he couldn't make a decision, so he could only ask for instructions from above.
"Report, General Xue Yue's telegram."
"Hmph, is Xue Yue's brain in the water, please ask for instructions in this situation. Tell him that even if the air force is finished, the enemy cannot be allowed to land. At the same time told him that as long as the Air Force holds out for two hours, our Navy will arrive. ”
Chen Jinghui was very angry when he saw Xue Yue's telegram, and at this time in the battle, the loss of some things was necessary. What China needs now is time, and these troops exist to buy time. Even if it is a total loss, as long as the personnel are still alive, Chen Jinghui feels that it is worth it.
"Commander Cui, immediately lead your regiment into the air to fight. The Deputy Commander-in-Chief ordered you to hold out for two hours, and in two hours our navy would arrive on the battlefield, and then we would be able to counterattack. Xue Yue said.
"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission." The head of the Air Force left.
But Xue Yue looked at the figure he left, and his heart was full of guilt. Because he knew that with one air regiment, it would be impossible to hold off the enemy's air force ten times his own for two hours.
Not only did he understand this to the end, but the commander of the Air Force also understood this truth. But now that the situation is no longer available, they can only do their best to stall for time and make their sacrifice more meaningful.
