On 20 October 1941, on the sea surface of Kagoshima Bay in southern Kyushu, two Type 97 carrier-based attack planes with ointment flags on their wings swept over the sea at a high level, and two torpedoes fell off from under their bellies.

The two torpedo planes that succeeded in one blow drew an arc in the air before triumphantly flying back in the direction of the military port. Behind them, two more torpedo planes were diving down the route they had just taken......

Yamamoto Fifty-six held the binoculars, his eyes firmly locked on the two torpedo planes in front, looking at the skillful dive action of the torpedo plane, a trace of relief appeared between his eyebrows, it seems that the hard work of the past six months has not been in vain.

At this time, a rustling of footsteps came from behind him, and a slightly proud voice sounded behind him: "Yamamoto-kun, our pilots have trained very well, and they will definitely be able to shine in this operation." ”

Yamamoto Fifty-six turned his head and said calmly: "Nangumo-kun, these pilots have been preparing for more than half a year, if they can't meet the requirements, it can only be said that these pilots are not worthy of His Majesty the Emperor's trust in them at all, and we can also directly cancel the next plan." ”

The person who came was Vice Admiral Nagumo Tadaichi, commander of the First Air Fleet of the Japan Combined Fleet.

Nan Yunzhong smiled, "Yamamoto-kun, you're too worried."

There is an old saying in the art of war of the people of China, if you have no heart to calculate, you have a heart, and you are prepared to fight without preparation, how can you be invincible? Yamamoto shook his head, "Nangumo-kun, you haven't been to the United States, you don't understand the horror of the United States, the United States is far superior to Japan in terms of industry, manufacturing and resources, once we go all out, we are not their opponents at all." Now we are walking a tightrope, and once we take a wrong step, the end that awaits us is shattered, and we ........."

Speaking of which, Yamamoto Fifty-six saw the hint of disapproval that appeared on Nagumo Tadaichi and knew that his words were in vain, but Nagumo Tadaichi didn't listen to it at all.

Sighing softly, Yamamoto Fifty-six changed the subject: "Nanyun-kun, how well have you studied the issue of torpedo fixing?" ”

After talking about this topic, Nagumo Tadashi shook his head with a look of embarrassment on his face and said: "So far, we have no good solution, the water depth of Pearl Harbor is only forty-five feet, and our torpedoes will fall into the sea as soon as they are thrown, and for this reason, His Excellency Nagano, the Minister of Naval Command, has repeatedly ordered us to improve the plan..., and we have not come up with a good solution until now." Yamamoto Fifty-six shook his head slightly, "Nagumo-kun, using torpedoes at Pearl Harbor is not a good way, and the best way for the warships anchored in the military harbor is to bombard them from top to bottom with heavy high-explosive bombs and sink them." 、，

"But without the torpedoes, our attack will be much weaker." Nagumo Zhongyi said in embarrassment.

"If you want to keep the torpedo from getting caught in the sea netg, the only way to do this is to reduce the height of the torpedo machine." Yamamoto thought for a while and said: "Now if you want to improve the depth of the torpedo when it enters the sea from a technical point of view, then you can only think of a way from the height of the bomb, I estimate that if you can reduce the height of the bomb from 3,000 feet to 1,500 feet, you can prevent the torpedo from falling into the sea; "Fifteen hundred feet!" Nagumo thought for a moment and said slowly: "If it were at this altitude, it should be possible to avoid the problem of the torpedo falling into the sea, but the requirements for the pilot are very high, and it is difficult to implement." ”

"It's hard to do!" Yamamoto Fifty-six said coldly: "If the naval aviation of the Great Japanese Empire can't even overcome this little difficulty, how can they still grab control of the Pacific Ocean with the Americans, and how can they turn around and defeat the Shina Army and Navy!" ”

"Hello!" Nagumo Zhong replied loudly: "We must defeat the navy of the Americans and the Chinese people, and restore the majesty of our empire on the sea." ，…

With the prestige of the 6th Army of China on the Suyang battlefield and Sakhalin Island, almost all the soldiers of the 6th Army of Japan have become more and more distant from the dream of re-entering the 6th Army of China, and they have put their only expectation on the navy, and in recent years, the military spending of the 6th Army has become more and more inclined to the navy. Although the 6th Army of the Japanese Army also accumulated a stomach full of resentment, the generals of the defeated army did not dare to speak bravely, and only pinched their noses and acquiesced to this fact.

My Jun has a long life, a thousand generations last forever, and the last few generations are evergreen until the fine stones become huge rocks, and moss grows on the rocks, and a group of pilots sang Jun Zhidai into the cafeteria, and several young pilots laughed and played with each other.

A young man about twenty-three or four, with a white scarf on his head, wearing a light green sè flight suit, smiled and said to his companion in front of him, "Ono-kun." You lost the bomb throwing drill just now, but it's your turn to treat you this Sunday.

"Yamaguchi-kun, you underestimate me too much, when will I Ono return to the field not speak." For the pilot replied with a look of feigned anger.

"That's good, we're all worried that you won't be able to explain your photon after you take your allowance for this month." Yamaguchi's teasing words caused everyone to burst into laughter.

As soon as he thought of the newlywed wife of Yan'er at home, Ono Guitian's heart swelled with warmth, and he waved his hand, "What nonsense are you all talking about, Mitsuko is the most supportive of me, when he came to see me a few days ago, he specially gave me thirty yen for me to keep Linghua, you guys are too underestimate her." ”

"Wow, Ono-kun is so happy to have such a virtuous wife."

Everyone sat down one by one in a gathering of laughter and laughter, and after each of them prepared a meal, they chatted about training while eating.

After eating a few bites of food, Yamaguchi gently touched Yamaguchi's arm, "Ono-kun, you said that we have been focusing on training in low-altitude bomb dropping these days, are we going to start fighting?" Which country is it this time again? ”

Ono Guitian shook his head, "I don't know about this, and it's not something that we soldiers can know." ”

"I guess it's either the Americans or the Chinese people, and now only the navies of these two countries in the Pacific Ocean are our opponents." Yamaguchi drank. After adding flavor to the soup, he said it without thinking, and after finishing speaking, Ono on the other side looked at him with a hint of anger on his face.

Only then did I realize that my friend's least favorite thing on weekdays was that someone called Huaxia as Zhina.

Sure enough, Ono Guitian immediately said unhappily: "Yamaguchi-kun, how many times have I told you, not knowing how to respect the enemy is equivalent to disrespecting yourself, I know that you all look down on the Huaxia people, because they have been invaded by us into their land, and think they are all vulnerable." But can't the lessons of these years change your opinion? ”

"But that's what the military department and the generals taught us." Yamaguchi said unconvinced.

"Don't pay attention to the words of those old men in the military department, they can only take advantage of their mouths now." Ono said disdainfully: "If those old men in the Admiralty are really so capable, our navy will not even dare to go to Jeju Island." ”

Speaking of Jeju Island, Yamaguchi was also silent, since Jeju Island was assigned by North Korea to the Huaxia government as a naval base, Jeju Island has become an important naval base of the Huaxia East China Sea Fleet, on which two naval divisions with a total of more than 40,000 ground troops and a six-based naval aviation division with more than 300 fighters are stationed all year round. They also have an aircraft carrier battle group standing in their military port, and there are many antiaircraft guns in the military port, and I heard that more than 10 shore defense guns have been erected in the direction of Japan, and the Huaxia people have turned it into a sharp knife, and as long as they want, the Chinese fighters on Jeju Island can bomb Japan again at any time, and Jeju Island has also become a sword of Damocles hanging over the head of the Japanese himself. Emperor Hirohito and many generals in the base camp tried to assemble a combined fleet to attack Jeju Island several times, but they were blocked by Yamamoto Isoroku and Prince Zaihito.

At the mention of the Chinese army on Jeju Island, many of the pilots who were having dinner also quieted down, and now the fighters who came out to patrol Jeju Island often confronted the Japanese planes, and although there was no exchange of fire under the strict orders of the high-level of the two sides, the two sides often staged chase battles, and the fighters of the Chinese and Japanese sides went back and forth like exercises, and they played one or two of them almost every day.

However, the strange thing is that in addition to strictly prohibiting the opening of fire, the top brass of both sides turn a blind eye to the chase that is carried out by patrol planes every day, as if they did not see it.

In this chase battle, the pilots of the "Japan" are becoming more and more familiar with the Xìng ability of the P47 and BF1O9 fighters equipped by the Huaxia Air Force and the "Wildcat" and other fighters, and they also have to admit a fact, that is, the Huaxia aircraft is now far beyond the "Japanese" in terms of both quantity and Xìng ability, even if it is the P47 of the Chinese people that the "Day" himself is proud of the Zero fighter

And the BF1O9 fighter is not cheap in front of it.

The cafeteria was silent, and Yamaguchi cheered up and shouted loudly: "The people of Zhihua only relied on the xìng ability of the fighters to gain the upper hand, as long as our great Japanese empire can develop new fighters, I believe we will be able to defeat them!" ”

"Yes, I heard that our military has already started to develop a new type of fighter, and even now we have the spirit of bushido that inspires us, and we will not be afraid of any challenge." One kind of pilot came up with the Spiritual Victory Method to cheer himself up.

Looking at the expressions of his companions, Ono Guitian shook his head helplessly, lowered his head and only cared about eating his own food.
