Jiang Baili could only try his best to make himself look calmer, but deep down there was always a feeling of disobedience, under the military uniform, it was the slightly trembling body, and even the throat was constantly trembling slightly, so Jiang Baili could only try not to speak, hoping to hide his nervousness.

Jiang Baili, who was only 28 years old, graduated from the Army Staff College with a major in staff officers, and although he had studied infantry at the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, Jiang Baili did not serve as the chief officer of the unit much during his service after returning to China.

The only experience as a commander was in his second year of leaving the army, when he was appointed captain and company commander, honed his position as company commander for a year, and then he was directly promoted to major battalion commander.

Two years later, that is, in the third year of the lower army, Jiang Baili was transferred to the division headquarters as a lieutenant colonel staff officer at the division headquarters, and another year passed, Jiang Baili was transferred to another division as the colonel's chief of staff.

This year is Jiang Baili's sixth year in the army, and his fifth year in the army, and it only took him five years to climb from captain to brigadier general. Yes, at the same time that the military department announced the promotion of seven people to marshals, Jiang Baili was also promoted to brigadier general.

However, because the gap between the marshal and the brigadier general was too big, and the light of the seven marshals also obscured Jiang Baili, this young young Zhuang general was ignored.

Jiang Baili only has experience in leading troops at the battalion and company level, although he has played a greater role in the position of staff officer, but Wang Sirui has a strong interest in Jiang Baili's expectations.

Although Jiang Baili had no experience in leading troops at a higher level, this time Jiang Baili was appointed deputy commander-in-chief of the landing operation and commander-in-chief of the landing of the Marine Corps.

In other words, Jiang Baili is the supreme leader of the Marine Corps of these four divisions, and above Jiang Baili, he is commanded by a meritorious veteran, Army General You Botailai.

You Botai has nearly 20 years of military experience, and has participated in the First Sino-Japanese War, the Eight-Nation Alliance's War of Aggression against China, and the subsequent Sino-Japanese Second Korean War, Third Korean War, and Sino-Russian War.

You Botai was Wang Sirui who took refuge in 1901, and at that time, You Botai led a battalion of Qing troops, which was also a great help to the Han army that year.

Otherwise, with You Botai's qualifications, how could he be promoted to army general in such a short period of time?

Although You Botai was Jiang Baili's superior, in order to avoid the headquarters being given a pot by Little Japan, Jiang Baili and You Botai were on two different ships, and their deputies were also on the other two ships.

In the early landing mission, everything was based on Jiang Baili, and only after the successful landing of the army would You Botai gradually take over the war.

"How's the aviation ready?" Although Jiang Baili has not been able to adjust, but the fleet is getting closer and closer to the landing site, it is impossible for the fleet to stop and wait for Jiang Baili to adjust and continue to move forward, and Jiang Baili also knows this, so holding back the tension in his heart, Jiang Baili glanced at the plan that he had written down in advance, and asked the adjutant beside him.

"Report to the commander, the aviation is ready." The adjutant responded with sophistication.

"Then let the aviation go." Jiang Baili nodded subconsciously, China has the advantage in all aspects of the landing operation, and even the aviation has been sent, although in the European theater, the aviation is no longer a rare type of troops, but in Asia, this is definitely a strange soldier, and it is enough to shock most people.

Jiang Baili had never seen the air force, not even their aircraft carrier, but he knew that for the sake of this landing operation, the aircraft carrier that had not yet been fully completed had to be put into service ahead of schedule, and as for the rest of the project, it could only be built after the successful landing after returning to the shipyard.

…………

On the aircraft carrier Junguo, a sharp alarm suddenly sounded, and on the deck, more than forty planes were densely parked, leaving only a runway in the middle that was enough for the planes to take off, and on both sides and behind were planes.

As the alarm sounded, the aircraft carrier battle group, which had already received the combat order, began to slowly reduce its speed, and then stood still, while the warships on the periphery continued to swim non-stop.

A standard aircraft carrier battle group is to be equipped with two aircraft carriers, and its supporting fleet also needs at least 20 warships of various types, mainly destroyers and frigates, with a small number of battleships.

But time is limited, the first aircraft carrier is still in the exploration stage, and the transformation is in a hurry, and even the main body of this aircraft carrier is transformed from battleships.

The main body is there, so there are more restrictions on this aircraft carrier.

The shipyard's engineers tried their best, and in the end the displacement of the aircraft carrier was increased from more than 20,000 tons to almost 30,000 tons, and the upper deck was also increased to 2,051 meters, 30 meters wide, equipped with three elevators, capable of accommodating up to eighty-one aircraft.

If the aircraft can be changed to a fixed-wing aircraft, and the fixed-wing aircraft can be changed to a foldable aircraft, then this aircraft carrier can easily break through 100 aircraft.

The aircraft that has long been on standby on the runway, after receiving the take-off order, the ground staff quickly help the aircraft start, in fact, the pilot controls the switch, and the external ground crew assists in starting, the principle is the same as starting the truck by hand.

The plane warmed up for less than half a minute, and by this time, the planes immediately following the first had all been successfully activated.

With a command from the ground crew, the pilot quickly pushed the speed of the plane to the fastest, and the plane rushed forward, the speed became faster and faster, and the distance of several hundred meters passed in the blink of an eye, and when the plane was about 20 meters away from the bow of the ship, the front wheels of the plane gradually left the deck.

At first, the take-off of the aircraft seemed unstable due to the shaking of the aircraft carrier, but after a simple adjustment by the pilot after leaving the restraints of the deck, the aircraft flew more and more steadily.

After the first aircraft left the deck, the second followed closely after repeating the steps of the first, then the third, then the fourth.

However, when the fifth plane appeared, the picture was completely different from the previous four, although on the surface it looks like a biplane fixed-wing aircraft, but put the two together a little comparison, it can be clearly seen that the first four planes to take off look very thin, and the plane that appeared at this moment, just looking like it gives people a very thick and sense of security.

Another difference is that the first four planes to take off only have two 12.7 mm Type 08 machine guns on the two wings of the aircraft, and next to the two machine guns can even see a long exposed chain of bullets, each chain of about 500 bullets.

And now the planes that have appeared are not only equipped with two machine guns on the wings, but also under their bellies, there are three 50-kilogram aerial bombs.

Yes, the first to take off were reconnaissance aircraft, they needed speed, they did not need to have too strong combat effectiveness, their main task was reconnaissance, and not to engage in a dogfight with the enemy.

The four planes, which correspond to the four directions of the front, front, front, and left, need to return to the aircraft carrier every half an hour, and land for supplies every two hours.

That is, the flight radius of the reconnaissance aircraft is half an hour, why should it be prescribed by time, and not by range? The reason is that after the planes flew into the sky, they lost contact, and they had no way to report the situation to the aircraft carrier group.

Therefore, according to the regulations, the plane needs to come back to report the situation after half an hour of reconnaissance, and the way to report is to fly the plane to make an action, and the people below will understand it as soon as they see this action. The reconnaissance plane, on the other hand, has a speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour, which is about 150 kilometers in theory, or 120 nautical miles, and according to the speed of a warship, it will take at least five hours to arrive.

Therefore, as long as the four reconnaissance planes are released, even if they are seen by the enemy, the aircraft carrier battle group will be able to respond in a timely manner. Or retreat?

The aircraft after that are fighter-bombers, which are all the types of aircraft currently owned by the aircraft carrier fleet, a small number of reconnaissance aircraft, and a large number of fighter-bombers.

If the target is the enemy's fleet, then replace it with 200 kg aerial bombs, and make an appropriate temporary extension in front of the deck, but this is dangerous, so in general, the maximum take-off load is 150 kg, because this ensures that the aircraft can take off fully on the existing runway.

One fighter-bomber after another left the flight deck, and with each plane in the air, they would form a two-plane battle squad in the air, and then every three combat squads would form a large battle formation, and every six planes would come together and they would fly towards the target area in front.

According to intelligence, the target area is only two kilometers long, and judging from the overall judgment, the air force's attack range is only about four kilometers at most.

Speaking of which, I have to mention the aircraft carrier of this era, compared with the aircraft carrier of later generations, the aircraft carrier of this era is simply as simple as building a 10,000-ton civilian ship in later generations, if you do not pursue performance, even an ordinary 10,000-ton civilian ship can become an aircraft carrier by refitting.
