The presence of Chinese aviation here is not good news for Japan, the Japanese army is afraid of aviation, and the navy is also afraid of aviation, even more so than infantry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The infantry on the ground is so small that the target unit is small, if there is really no way, you can drill directly into the woods, unless the Chinese destroy the entire forest, otherwise someone will definitely survive.

However, the navy is different, the ships of the navy move relatively slowly, there is no shelter on the sea surface to shelter them, and a large amount of black smoke is more like providing positioning and navigation for the aviation, so that the enemy may find them in an area of dozens of kilometers.

It is true that the Japanese army and navy are not compatible, but that does not mean that the two armies hope that the other side will have bad luck, although most soldiers think so, but as a high-ranking figure in the Japanese army, Nogi Noshinori will not have this wrong idea.

As a matter of fact, anyone with a bit of military acumen would not want the Japanese navy to be unlucky because of the disagreement between the navy and the army. Because once the Navy is finished, the Japanese Army is really finished.

At that time, the Chinese will have the ability to blockade the whole of Japan with their meager naval strength, and what if Japan secretly obtains military aid from the Americans? Once blocked by the Chinese, unless the United States and Japan tear their faces, Japan will still be beaten back to its original shape.

Therefore, although the existence of the navy may not bring much change to the entire war situation, once there is no navy, the war situation will inevitably become even worse. As long as there is a navy, the Chinese warships must be used to protect their supply lines, otherwise the land forces landing in Japan will be in trouble.

But the Chinese have aircraft, but the Japanese warships do not have any air defense function, in fact, now the warships of all countries in the world have no air defense function, except for the strange Chinese Empire.

But now that I think about it, this idea of the Chinese seems to have been formed a long time ago, otherwise, why would they install so many small-caliber guns on warships in the first place? No, or should I say anti-aircraft artillery.

Nogi Noshinori thought of all possibilities, but he did not expect that the Chinese plane would take off from a warship, and it was the kind of aircraft carrier that he had never heard of. He did not expect that the take-off site and combat site of the fighter plane were only less than 40 kilometers.

Nogi Noshinori also did not expect that before he thought of alerting the navy, the Chinese had already discovered the Japanese naval fleet and had already responded.

After dozens of planes resupply the aircraft carrier, they quickly changed course and rushed directly to the Japanese naval fleet, with the posture of killing the Japanese navy before it reached the battlefield.

In fact, they did this, and this battle also made the officers and men of the naval fleet depressed, and they had already received the news of the imminent attack of the Japanese navy, and everyone widened their eyes and rolled up their arms to make a big move, but from dawn to dark, the Japanese navy, which should have appeared long ago, was never traced.

Don't tell me anything about getting lost, if you can get lost at your own doorstep, the Japanese Navy can really go and buy a piece of tofu and die en masse.

Daniel Zhang, the captain of the 1st Fighter-Bomber Group, was killed by a previous mistake that resulted in the death of 2,000 Marine Corps soldiers, so Daniel Zhang did not rush to attack the Japanese naval fleet in this battle, but handed over the task to his deputy, and Daniel Zhang continued to lead the remaining five fighters to attack the Japanese defense line.

In the sky and on the sea, the humming sound of fighter engines was transmitted for a long time, but in fact, the distance of these noises was not far away. (I don't know how noisy the old propeller plane is, but judging by the current situation, a plane passing overhead will be noisy for less than half a minute at most, so this statement is given.) ）

The reconnaissance plane was constantly flying back and forth, and adjusting its direction with the direction of the Japanese naval fleet, as long as the Japanese navy made a turn, he would also track accordingly and provide guidance for the subsequent attack formation.

This is to prevent the attack formation from finding the target after arriving at the target area, and the other is that at this distance, the fuel of the fighters is not particularly sufficient.

In order to be in a hurry, the fighters flew almost at the fastest speed along the way, so the original range of more than 200 kilometers has basically been reduced to less than 200 kilometers, plus it costs more fuel during the battle, so in fact, their fuel is not sufficient, if the Japanese army does not turn, then it is still enough.

If the Japanese army made a turn, and the fighters arrived in the original area and did not find the target, they went to find the target and then rushed over, and then there would not be too much fuel to put into the battle after entering the battlefield.

The use of aircraft in actual combat has indeed brought new changes to the war, but the role of aircraft at this stage is still quite limited, or in other words, the aircraft at this stage does not have the ability to open mountains and establish factions for the time being.

However, for the ability of the aircraft, the Chinese Empire is convinced, they not only want to establish a school for the aircraft, but also provide more options for the aircraft, although in the eyes of later generations this is nothing, but in the present, it is definitely ahead of its time, epoch-making works.

For example, various types of carrier-based aircraft, because they also take off on aircraft carriers, the take-off distance must be short, which means that the speed of the fighter must be fast when taking off, and the weight of the fighter must be reduced as much as possible. In the same way, in order to meet these two points, the range and load capacity of the aircraft can only be sacrificed.

Therefore, when this kind of aircraft is used on land, the power is slightly insufficient. So they also developed a land-based version, and the difference between the two is actually quite the same, that is, the difference in size.

Ground-based aircraft, on the other hand, tend to have more all-round performance, longer range, greater bomb load, and stronger attack power.

In fact, Wang Sirui does not have a special understanding of the specific plan of the Air Force, but there is no problem with a general concept, and the Chinese Empire is also the first country in the world to have a complete Air Force framework so far, and it is currently the only one, although it may not be so complete, but at least compared to other countries, it is at least a development concept one or two decades ahead of schedule.

At 9:20 a.m., an attack echelon of eleven formations and sixty-six fighter-bombers arrived in the battlefield area, but the Japanese Navy did not make a turn, and they were not even able to detect the reconnaissance planes that were following them.

However, this is not because the Japanese navy's lookouts are lazy, but because the reconnaissance plane is so far away that the reconnaissance plane does not need to be close to the distance to observe what the Japanese fleet is doing, which does not mean anything to the reconnaissance plane, he only needs to stay in a position where the fleet can be seen.

And this sight often refers to the black smoke over the fleet, as long as the smoke can be seen in the line of sight, it proves that the enemy is within their reconnaissance range, if the smoke disappears, then a search is needed.

When the formation arrived, the reconnaissance plane and the attack formation had a brief handover, and the reconnaissance plane had been here for a short time, and the fuel had basically reached the critical line; before the formation arrived, the reconnaissance plane carried out a close reconnaissance and determined that there was no deviation in the number of targets, and after passing this news to the attack echelon, the reconnaissance plane adjusted its direction and flew toward the position where the aircraft carrier was located.

Immediately after that, the first attack echelon, consisting of three attack formations, eighteen fighter-bombers.

The first wave of attacks was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Cong Fei, deputy leader of the 1st Fighter-Bomber Formation, who was also one of the early aviation school instructors and was later transferred to the Naval Aviation Corps along with Daniel Zhang and served as the deputy leader of the 1st Fighter-Bomber Formation.

Cong Fei is also a veteran pilot with rich experience, although he has not really participated in actual combat, but in ordinary training, he can be regarded as a good hand, when using bombs to attack fixed targets on the ground, Cong Fei's record is 40 percent hit rate.

This hit rate will inevitably decrease when facing a moving target, but don't forget that the target of their attack is a warship, and the side of the warship is the thickest place, and the upper deck is their weakest point, and the aerial bomb is likely to directly smash through the deck of the warship from the top down.

Even if it can't be penetrated, the huge explosive power of the bomb and the huge lethality to ground targets can still kill and injure this warship.

And there is another point, there is no way to make any armor for the boiler of a warship, especially the chimney above, if you are lucky, you only need a 50-kilogram bomb to throw it down the chimney, no matter how heavy the warship is, it can be directly declared finished, and the consequences of the boiler explosion are very serious.

Cong Fei led the first attack echelon to quickly adjust its position, divided its tasks for the three different formations, and then pounced in the direction of the Japanese warships moving below.

The dive performance of the fighter-bomber is not good, but at this time it is necessary to dive, and only by doing so can it most likely smash through the upper deck of the enemy warship, hit their ammunition depot, and hit the interior of the warship.

The squad that Cong Fei is responsible for, their opponents are two battleships, and the other two squads, one is to attack freely, and the other is to follow Cong Fei to make up for the knife, and here, Cong Fei's tactical purpose is also very clear, that is, to give priority to the enemy's main battleships, even if the rest of the small warships break through the past, the impact is not great, and the naval warships will solve them.
