The destroyer Shiyu said that it was good technology, good luck, and auspiciousness, but in the final analysis, the key to escaping death was Li Guang's order.

At this moment, Li Guang already knew that the Japanese aircraft carrier had been blown up and sunk. However, the main squadron of the battleships Pacific once again discovered a new enemy situation, and the water reconnaissance planes again discovered that a formation of three Japanese warships was rapidly approaching the Pacific. One of them is estimated to be a heavy cruiser.

The distance between the two fleets is only forty kilometers, and the speed of this fleet of little devils is extremely fast, according to the report of the water reconnaissance plane, at least thirty-five knots. At this rate, the distance between the two fleets could be shortened to twenty kilometers in less than an hour, and it would be easy to enter the artillery range.

For such a fleet of three Japanese warships, Li Guang was not worried that he would not be able to defeat it, but if the war started, the Pacific would be delayed again, and perhaps the opponent's main fleet would be able to catch up with the Pacific faster. It is obvious that the Japanese army sent such a fleet to harass the itinerary of the naval resistance army.

Li Guang is most sure of one thing, that is, the closer it is to Yemen, the more advantageous it will be for the fighters of the Naval Resistance Force. As soon as this battle began, Li Guang adjusted the deployment of the navy and air force under the guidance of this thinking.

So Li Guang ordered the fighters to clean up the Japanese destroyers, and the transport planes quickly left the battlefield and immediately came to support the Pacific.

The voyage of the Pacific must not be dragged down by the three warships of the devil and fall into a bitter battle. This was much more important than taking out a small Japanese destroyer.

There were two other reasons for Li Guang's order: The heavy dexterous bombs on the transport planes were almost 60% of the inventory of the Naval Resistance Army, and they absolutely could not be wasted on the Japanese destroyers. In addition, the Japanese fighters returning to their home are about to arrive, and the aircraft carrier has sunk, and these fighters have no other way out than the sea. The little devil must not be given this chance.

In this way, the Japanese Navy's destroyer Shiyu escaped.

But he said that he had lost the devil fighter of the mothership, and after flying half the distance, he learned that the nest was gone.

How can this be done?

Some fighters still have some fuel, and some fighters will soon run out of fuel.

The relationship between the Japanese air force and the battleships has always been not very harmonious, and the most obvious one is the famous Japanese pilot Minoru Genda. This guy despises battleships - outdated iron cannon houses.

The general assessment of aviation by the fleet party is --- coward.

There are countless times when the aviation faction and the battleship faction have quarreled and even started their hands.

But at this time, even if the Japanese pilots were dissatisfied with the commander of the battleship, there was nothing they could do, so a group of planes flew in the direction of the home team. Hopefully fly to the home team and then parachute to survive.

Flight captain Shikazu Okada and the other two devil pilots felt faceless to go back. Having lost His Majesty's fighter plane, I really have no shame to face. What made these two devils even more unable to face was the cynicism of the Japanese naval officers on the battleship.

The two devils still had the courage to set up fighters and flew back towards the naval resistance fleet.

If there is a radar of the XXI century, it can be seen. Over the Arabian Sea, four groups of planes are flying north.

The first group was Tu Yuanchao's squad of eight fighters returning from the Maritime Resistance Army, which was already less than 200 kilometers away from Yemen.

The second is the Japanese fleet, which is a mixed fleet of 16 fighters.

Less than thirty kilometers to the west behind the Japanese fleet were twelve bombers of the Naval Resistance Army.

A little further south are the twelve fighters of the Naval Resistance Army.

After killing the Japanese aircraft carrier, Li Guang's mood began to change again, and he was looking forward to the weather continuing to improve, hoping that the sun would never set, so that the air force of the Naval Resistance Army would play a huge role, and perhaps the tide of the war could be reversed.

The sun was sure to set, and at half past six o'clock, the silhouettes of three Japanese battleships had already appeared in the large-aperture telescope.

Thirty kilometers, it will not take much time to enter the gun range, and the calculation of the staff officers is that the Japanese battleship will enter the gun range of the Pacific in fifteen minutes.

FOR THE NAVAL RESISTANCE FORCES, EVEN IF THE JAPANESE WARSHIPS ENTERED THE ARTILLERY RANGE, IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR THEIR HEAVY CRUISER 203MM GUNS TO POSE A THREAT TO THE NAVAL RESISTANCE FORCES AT A DISTANCE OF MORE THAN 25 KILOMETERS. The most likely artillery battle between the two sides was about twenty kilometers away and would take forty minutes.

At that time, at least the bombers of the Naval Resistance Army could reach the battlefield, and the battleships would not be alone.

Just when Li Guang was thinking like this. He found that forty minutes was probably too much to expect.

Two Japanese fighters had already swooped down on the Pacific again from a high altitude. At this time, all the anti-aircraft gunners of the battleship Pacific did not leave their posts at all, and all of them were ready for battle.

The two Japanese fighters quickly dived down from the front and rear of the battleship, and the strategy was extremely appropriate, but the searchlights and anti-aircraft artillery of the Naval Resistance Force were not vegetarian. In a hail of bullets, a Japanese fighter plane was smashed to pieces. The Japanese fighter plane that swooped down from the front, Li Guang could see it very clearly, and it was also shot in a few seconds.

But the ensuing scene made Li Guang's heart immediately tighten. The 96 fighter plane that was shot actually continued to dive towards the Pacific in a spiral, and when it was too late, it was too fast, and the 96 fighter plane actually plunged headlong into the foredeck of the Pacific.

With an explosion, a strong fire erupted from the place where the fighter plane fell.

Kindness? It doesn't seem like there was much of a shock?

This is not at the same level as the damage that Li Guang expected. The only place where the fighter exploded was fire and smoke, and there was no violent explosion as expected. You must know that just one 250-kilogram bomb can make the huge body of the entire battleship shake, and the explosion in front of you does not have much shock at all except for setting off a bunch of fire.

In fact, this is the 96 fighter plane piloted by Okada Shiko, the captain of the Japanese Air Force, and there is very little gasoline on the plane, not to mention bombs. This powerful explosion was like tickling a cheeky battleship.

Even so, Li Guang wiped a cold sweat, the little devil had a famous kamikaze attack, it was at the end of the war, and now it actually appeared in advance.

There was only a brief delay, when the battleship Pacific adjusted its course and continued to the northwest. The lookout post reported: Three Japanese Navy warships were rapidly inserting into the front of the battleship, and had entered the gun range --- a distance of 27 kilometers.

The battleship Pacific and the two destroyers Pickup were under the command of Zheng Xuechang, and Li Guang had no intention of interfering with Zheng Xuechang's command, but he immediately ordered the mobilization of four nearby water reconnaissance planes to fire the Pacific as the main gun.

The fleets of the two sides continued to approach, but Zheng Xuechang did not take advantage of the 27-kilometer range of the battleship Pacific's main guns to fire first. Although the caliber of the main guns of the little devil's heavy cruiser is not as good as that of the Pacific, the range is also around 27 kilometers.

Both sides understand very well that this distance is not much certainty even if the artillery is fired, and it is almost a pure waste of shells.

In the early days of the encounter, the arrangements were almost identical, and the Devil's heavy cruiser Kumano also ejected all three water reconnaissance planes.

At the first moment of engagement, the two sides did not engage in an artillery battle, but a battle between water reconnaissance aircraft. There were four naval resistance troops and three Japanese troops. Li Guang doesn't like to engage in any soldier-to-general, one-to-one battle. Immediately order all the water reconnaissance planes on the PC to take off to reinforce the battlefield.

In an air battle between planes, telescopes can see it at a distance of about 3 to 5 kilometers, but at a distance of about 10 kilometers, it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe.

Li Guang could only anxiously judge the situation on the radio station according to the pilot's words. The air battle was going too fast, the battle was too fierce, Li Guang had just figured out the situation, and the battle had come to an end. In the blink of an eye, the Maritime Resistance Army lost three water reconnaissance aircraft, and the Japanese lost two. The contrast of air power became one-to-one.

It should be said that the level of the pilots of the water reconnaissance planes of the Maritime Resistance Force is the same level as that of the Tu Yuanchao squad. In the first round, the dive sneak attack took out two Japanese water reconnaissance planes. However, the performance of the US Curtiss Company's water reconnaissance plane was really poor enough, and compared with the Japanese army's cutting-edge fighter -- the performance of the Type 1 water reconnaissance plane was not at all at all, and in the process of breaking away, three planes were shot down in succession.

The sacrifice of the three water reconnaissance planes was not without effect, and at this time, the remaining water reconnaissance planes of the Maritime Resistance Army once again seized the high altitude and dived down again against the only one of the Japanese troops.

The battle in this round was only two or three thousand meters away from the Pacific, and Li Guang could see it clearly in the command bridge.

The fighters of the Naval Resistance Army dived extremely fast, and when they approached the Japanese fighters, the on-board machine guns spewed out bright tongues of fire.

"Hit, hit."

"Kill it."

The battleship Pacific, the Shanghai anti-Japanese fighters, cheered for their pilots.

"Hit the ......," cheered from the battleship.

Silence ensued. Due to the high speed of the dive, the pilots of the water reconnaissance planes of the Maritime Resistance Army were already less than 300 meters away from the sea surface after the pilots hit the opponent. At such high speeds, the fighter plane has lost control and can no longer be pulled up. The warriors watched as their brothers plunged headlong into the sea.

There are more warships of devils, and there will be no fewer water reconnaissance planes.

Ten minutes later, Liu Guobang's 12 bombers will fly over the battlefield.

You must know that the so-called bombers of the Maritime Resistance Force are actually just huge and inflexible C47 transport planes. If the Japanese army dispatches water reconnaissance planes, these 12 intact C47 bombers will not be the opponent of a small type of water reconnaissance.

The PC is now about eighty kilometers from the Pacific, and the main fleet of the Japanese fleet is also about eighty kilometers.

If both sides take off at the same time, it will take about 25 minutes to reach the sky over the battlefield.

The staff officers headed by Hu Bofeng calculated extremely quickly, and when the air battle had just ended, they had already calculated the current situation.

There is no choice but to fight.

Li Guang immediately ordered the last four water reconnaissance planes of the Naval Resistance Army to fly over the battlefield at full speed, and as soon as they arrived, they immediately seized a high-altitude position to escort their own bombers.

After Li Guang gave the order, Zheng Xuechang had already given the order to open fire.

At this time, the fleets of the two sides were already advancing in parallel, and the distance was only twenty-three kilometers.
