, updated today with 15,000 words to make up for the chapter owed yesterday

Just as the war in Europe was about to end, the Chinese Empire decided to preemptively defeat the United States, which might threaten the hegemony of the Chinese Empire after World War I, when the main forces of the United States' navy, army, and air force were all gathered in the European theater. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo╔╗

In order to prepare for war against the United States, the Chinese Empire prepared for a full seven months, and finally officially launched war against the United States on April 1, 1917, the tenth day of the second month of the seventeenth year of Guanghua, as the auspicious day of the zodiac.

Since it was a Sunday, most of the officers and men of the U.S. Pacific Base Command in Hawaii were on holiday, and it was also the favorite April Fool's Day of Westerners, the Chinese Empire chose this day to launch a surprise attack on the United States, which was in line with the art of war.

After seven months of thorough preparations, Wang Chenhao, emperor of the Chinese Empire and commander-in-chief of the navy, army, and air force, issued a holy decree on the war against the United States, and the General Staff Headquarters was fully responsible for carrying it out.

According to the strategic plan of the General Staff of the Chinese Empire, the war against the United States was divided into three parts, the first part was codenamed the Pacific Campaign, and the Chinese Empire would take Hawaii, Alaska, and the Philippines in the shortest possible time before the United States could react. The second part is codenamed the Battle of the American Spine, in which the Chinese Emperor will use Hawaii as a springboard to quickly land on the western coast of the United States, control the American Rocky Mountains, known as the American backbone, and occupy the commanding heights of the United States. The third part, codenamed "Save the Lady of Liberty", is intended to storm Washington and New York, seize the Statue of Liberty, the symbol of the United States, and completely defeat the United States.

Among them, the first step of the Pacific Campaign in the first part was the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, which wiped out the main force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet in one fell swoop, destroyed Pearl Harbor, the U.S. military base in Hawaii, and cleared the way for the subsequent landing of the Imperial Army in Hawaii.

For the Chinese Empire, the traditional tactics have always been to win the first battle, which can boost the morale of the Empire's navy, land and air forces, and the emperor has always believed that victory in the first battle will lead to victory in the subsequent battles, so a lot of pre-war preparations have been made, and the first battle must be won. This is also one of the main reasons why the General Staff of the Chinese Empire delayed the execution of the war against the United States for four months in a row.

Pearl Harbor, the target of the first war against the United States. To this end, the General Staff of the Imperial Chinese Empire coordinated the main forces of the Imperial Air Force and Navy, and in seven months of preparation, the Imperial Navy and Air Force conducted three large-scale simulated exercises on an island similar to Pearl Harbor in the Solomon Islands, but they could not achieve the expected results.

In order to achieve the suddenness of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Imperial Chinese Navy built huge trestle bridges and air bases on Wake Island in the Mariana Islands and Traina Island in the Lane Islands, which are closest to Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, so that the main ships of the Imperial Chinese Navy can stop at these two naval bases for replenishment and maintenance, and it is convenient for the fighters of the Imperial Air Force to replenish supplies at these two air bases. At the same time, it was also a rest stop for the Imperial Expeditionary Force.

Since the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor mainly relied on air power, the United States reinforced the defense of the Pearl Harbor fortress, and if it wanted to destroy the US fortifications in Hawaii at one time, it was necessary to use a large number of bomber groups. The Imperial Navy's more than 80 aircraft carriers can carry a limited number of bombers, so the Imperial Air Force expanded its air bases on Wake Island and Traina Island, and built three super-large airfields, of which Traina Island has two airfields in the north and south, each airport has at least five runways, and in the 300-seat hangar of Traina Island Airport, it can accommodate 1,000 H2N1 bombers and 3,000 land-based fighters. In total, the two air bases can accommodate 20,000 fighters and 6,000 bombers.

Since November 15 last year, the Imperial Air Force of China has secretly transferred 8,000 Cat Demon fighters, 3,000 Thunderbolt fighters, 1,500 Hellfire fighters, and 5,500 H1N1H2N1 bombers from more than 600 air force airfields on the mainland. ╔╗

At the same time, the Admiralty organized a large task force, led by Admiral Li Dingxin and Vice Admiral Liu Guanxiong, to be secretly deployed in a dozen large lagoons in the Mariana Islands, south of Wake Island, and the Lane Islands, west of Traina Island.

The task force includes six capital ship battle groups, six aircraft carrier battle groups, and two submarine fleet battle groups, of which the six capital ship battle groups are five battleship battle groups composed of 20 superbow battleships and four superbow battlecruisers. Each surface battle group includes four capital battleships, four light cruisers, eight destroyers, and four submarines. The six aircraft carrier battle groups are based on the six main aircraft carriers, namely the Huangshan CV-6, the Lushan CV-7, the Emeishan CV-28, the Wutaishan CV-29, the Putuoshan CV-30, and the Jiuhuashan CV-31, and are equipped with another 10 modified escort aircraft carriers, and each aircraft carrier battle group is equipped with six Chinese Aegis air defense cruisers, eight light cruisers, and 12 hunting ships. The two submarine fleet battle groups are equipped with 20 Tang-class submarines and 30 advanced submarines, respectively.

It can be said that in the plan of action for the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, all the elite parts of the Imperial Chinese Navy were dispatched. The lowest capital ship is the most junior super bow type battleship six years ago, and in view of the Battle of Jutland, the god bow type battleship has become obsolete, so it is used for regional patrol and vigilance, and it is separated from the capital ship formation for the first time, and it is no longer used in a big battle.

On 39 March, under the command of Admiral Li Dingxin and Vice Admiral Liu Guanxiong, the Imperial Chinese Navy's task force sailed toward Pearl Harbor, avoiding the waters frequented by US Navy training ships and reconnaissance planes, and arrived 50 nautical miles west of Pearl Harbor in the early morning of 1 April. A large number of light cruisers and hunting ships were sent to blockade the waters around Hawaii, and all ships entering and leaving Hawaii were seized until the end of the Hawaiian campaign.

At the same time, as early as the night of March 31, the Imperial Chinese Navy sent five deep-water submarines to the deep sea area of about 700 meters on the east and west sides of Hawaii. The five deep-sea submarines, which Lake himself developed to lay cables on the seabed, are now being used to cut off telephone and telegraph lines between the U.S. Pacific Command in Hawaii and the U.S. mainland. Hawaii's submarine cable connecting the mainland of the United States to the outside world was cut at around 11 p.m. on the 31st.

In addition, the Imperial Chinese Special Service Fleet dispatched eight electronic jamming ships to be deployed around the Hawaiian Islands, and from 4 a.m. on 1 April, all ships turned on radio jamming at maximum power, completely cutting off radio communication between the US military in Hawaii and the outside world.

As a result, the whole of Hawaii has been completely cut off from the world, and the United States and the whole world do not know what will happen to Hawaii. What is even more tragic is that the US military at the Pacific base, which is usually lazy, was still spending Sunday holidays and playing April Fool's Day spoof games with relatives and friends one second before the catastrophe came.

In accordance with the tactics summed up by the Chinese Emperor in the war against Japan, the 1st Airborne Division of the Chinese Empire transferred an elite reconnaissance battalion, and they landed directly in Kaharu, east of Honolulu, in the early morning of April 1. After the parachuting, the officers and men of the battalion quickly approached various key US military positions on Oahu and secretly set up short-range radio contact points on nearby high ground to provide accurate target guidance on the ground for the upcoming large-scale air raid operation.

Prior to this, the Imperial Chinese General Staff had spent more than a decade gathering intelligence on Pearl Harbor, including astronomy, geography, and humanities.

Pearl Harbor is located on the island of Oahu in Hawaii and is named for its abundance of high-quality pearls. Historically, Hawaii was an independent kingdom. Hundreds of years ago, the Spanish Empire relied on sea power to forcibly claim it as its own, and the kingdom collapsed. In 1898, the increasingly powerful United States of America seized the land from Spain and began building a naval base there. ╔╗ They excavated Pearl Harbor in 1902, and in 1908, the U.S. Congress passed the designation of Pearl Harbor as a U.S. naval base. The first U.S. ship to enter Pearl Harbor was the USS California, which sailed in 1910. Subsequently, in 1914, a submarine base and air station were established there.

From the air, Pearl Harbor is like an eagle claw stretched out to the interior of Hawaii, the geographical conditions are quite superior, at the southern end of the Waipio Peninsula between the West Bay and the Middle Bay, there is a milky white octagonal water tower, the whole water tower is 55.8 meters high, there is also a red light at the top, is a significant entry navigation sign, and there is also a Golden Eagle signal tower on the shore on the east side of the port's population corner can also assist navigation. At the entrance to the port, there is only one dredged waterway with a depth of 13.7 meters. Pearl Harbor is located at the lowest point of the plain between the Kolau Mountains and the Waiana Mountains on the south coast of Oahu, adjacent to the only deep-water port of Honolulu, and is a base and shipbuilding base of the United States Navy, as well as one of the largest and best safe berthing ports in the North Pacific Islands.

Due to its geographical location, Pearl Harbor does not avoid the northeast trade winds, especially in December and January, especially in the East Bay, where its speed can reach more than 9 m/s. However, the adjacent Honolulu Port, on the contrary, may be calm and cloudless at this time, and the tide in the whole port is not very strong, and the amount of falling tide sometimes reaches 0.5 and saves 0.9 km/h; Currents usually flow westward through inlet channels with fringing reefs.

It is impossible for the air force and naval aviation of the Chinese Imperial Republic to launch an attack by detouring northeast of Pearl Harbor, so it is estimated that it will be easily detected by the US military. It was with this problem in mind that the Imperial Chinese General Staff avoided the original plan of launching an operation last Christmas and launched an attack in April this year, avoiding the northeast trade winds.

Pearl Harbor is not only an important US naval base and the main troop concentration of the Pacific Fleet, but also a key support point for the US "forward defense." Otherwise, the defense line west of the US mainland would only be limited to the west coast of the US mainland.

The full-scale construction of Zhuhai-Hong Kong as a base began in 1907, when relations between China and the United States had begun to deteriorate, so the United States began to build ship repair yards, dry docks, fuel supply depots, docks, and necessary naval facilities. With the completion of the dry dock in 1911, it was equipped with ships, and submarine berthing engineering and training facilities were added, and a submarine base was established. Subsequently, airfields and various facilities for the take-off and landing of naval aircraft were built, and in 1914 an air station was established in response to the air war in Europe. Subsequently, during the Sino-US Hawaii Treaty, the United States also specifically decided that although the scale of bases in the Pacific region would basically remain the same and not be expanded, the Hawaii area would not belong to this category, and Pearl Harbor would really attract attention and be fully constructed, improved, and utilized, making it a forward position against the Imperial Chinese Navy.

At the beginning of 1916, the United States officially converted the Hawaiian Islands into a theater base group to vigorously build and flex its muscles to the Chinese Empire. The Hawaiian Islands and Midway Island connect the US mainland and US military bases in the western Pacific, and are the command center of the US military in the Pacific Theater and the sea and air transportation hub on the Pacific shipping routes. Major U.S. military bases in the area include:

Pearl Harbor Naval Base: Located 13 kilometers from Honolulu, it is the location of the U.S. Pacific Fleet Command and the largest U.S. forward base in the Pacific. The base is responsible for supplying more than 400 surface ships and submarines of the US Navy's Pacific Fleet, and is the most densely populated US military base in the Pacific.

Smith Marine Barracks: The location of the U.S. Pacific Command and the Pacific Fleet Marine Corps Command, located in Hawala Heights, Caneohet Bay, covering an area of 89 hectares.

Fort Schaffes and Barracks Schofield: Located north of Honolulu, this 608-hectare site is home to the U.S. Army Pacific Command. It has four infantry brigades, 42 tanks, 120 artillery pieces, and 80 heavy machine guns, and is tasked with dealing with low-intensity military conflicts in the Pacific region.

Kaneocht Bay Hawaii Marine Base: Located 19 kilometers north of Honolulu, it is currently home to 26,800 Marines and Navy personnel, 30 tanks, 64 artillery pieces, and 80 heavy machine guns. ╔╗

Hickam Air Force Base: The location of the U.S. Pacific Air Force Command, 14 kilometers away from Honolulu, covering an area of 890 hectares, with a runway length of 3,769 meters, and is also the garrison of the 11th, 13th, 15th, and 19th base air wings and the 502nd air combat group of the U.S. Air Force, with 1,590 fighters, 40 bombers, 45 reconnaissance planes and trainer aircraft.

All the information had been gathered by the intelligence officers of the Chinese Empire, and Li Dingxin, commander of the Chinese Imperial Task Force, made a mobilization speech to all the officers and men participating in the battle through the fleet's internal channel at 4 a.m. on the Zhu Yuanzhang, the flagship of the task force.

At five o'clock in the morning, the Imperial Chinese Naval Air Force and the Imperial Chinese Air Force at the Air Force Base on Wake Island and Traina Island had completed the general mobilization before and after the war.

In the bridge of the flagship, Commander Li Dingxin stood by the guardrail, his hands clenched tightly, and soon sweat was squeezed out between his fingers.

Although he had been the chief of staff of the fleet by Lin Jianzhang's side for more than 10 years, he had just taken up the post of commander of the fleet when he received an order to fight against the United States.

"The rise and fall of empires is here!"

Listening to Li Dingxin's slightly heavy words, Vice Admiral Zhou Yaohai, the chief of staff of the fleet next to him, said: "Yes, it is definitely a life-and-death struggle for two world superpowers to go to war and decide who will dominate the future world order between the two emerging countries. ”

"Fight to the death!" Li Dingxin nodded and said, "That's right!" No world power can rise peacefully. Although we have caught up with the good times, the old European powers have no time to stop our rise. However, as a rising partner, the United States and China are fierce competitors, and if there is only one superpower in this world, the United States will be our mortal enemy. ”

Zhou Yaohai didn't seem to have too much to worry about, and said: "We will win the war, we Easterners have ruled the world for thousands of years, and the shame of modern times has allowed Westerners to dominate the world, and this time we will take it back completely." Guess how long it will take us to defeat the United States? ”

Li Dingxin asked rhetorically: "Bet?" If you lose, please eat! ”

Zhou Yaohai said with a smile: "You are also a general commander now, and the stakes are too low to match your identity." In this way, I heard that the last time you entered the palace to meet the saint, you won the appreciation of Your Majesty, and got the latest Chinese BMW sedan, so take it as a bet, and I will bet that the empire will defeat the United States within three months, and if you lose, you will give me the car. ”

Li Dingxin suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "You just grabbed it!" It is inevitable to defeat the United States in three months, is it still worth betting? ”

Zhou Yaohai smiled: "I just fell in love with your new car!" You'll see what to do, right? ”

Li Dingxin smiled helplessly, and finally said: "Just bet with you!" Anyway, the plan drawn up by the General Staff is to defeat the United States within three months, so I'll borrow your good words. ”

At this moment, the bridge staff officer hurriedly reported: "Report to the commander, the first wave of attack aircraft of the Air Force has flown over the Johnsburg Atoll, and it is expected to carry out an air attack on Pearl Harbor in half an hour." Air Force Commander Lieutenant General Chen Fei called and asked for final confirmation of the attack order. ”

Li Dingxin and Zhou Yaohai suddenly became excited, and hurriedly became upright. ╔╗ ordered: "Call back, the order for the air attack on Pearl Harbor is valid, and I wish him success." ”

At this time, the sea level in the east of the sky was still gray, and there was still at least half an hour before dawn. Li Dingxin demanded that the bomber group arrive over Pearl Harbor at dawn, so he had to order the various combat planes to take off in advance, and the bomber group from Wake Island and Trayna Air Force Base had already taken off at two o'clock in the morning, less than half an hour's flight from Pearl Harbor.

As the first wave of attack aircraft, it was completed by 3,000 Thunderbolt fighters, 1,500 Hellfire fighters, and 5,500 H1N1H2N1 bombers of the Imperial Chinese Air Force. As the first wave of attack aircraft, they will carry out a full-scale bombing operation against Pearl Harbor an hour and a half before the carrier battle group and the carrier-based aircraft group.

The reason for this arrangement is that Li Dingxin has used the six aircraft carrier battle groups as platforms, so that air force fighters and naval air carrier-based planes can use the aircraft carrier platform in turn, so that the air force fighters can complete refueling and refueling operations on the aircraft carrier platform without having to fly all the way back to the air base thousands of miles away, thus saving time.

At the same time, just 10 minutes before the first wave of attack planes of the Imperial Chinese Air Force approached Pearl Harbor, a combat duty reconnaissance plane at the Pearl Harbor base of the US military conducted routine air patrols as usual. Originally, four reconnaissance planes were supposed to take off at the same time this morning, but the other three pilots all took leave, and as a result, the pilot, Second Lieutenant Beth, was left alone.

Bess cursed his comrades as he ate breakfast and patrolled the airspace around Hawaii.

At 6:12 a.m., when Bess reconnaissance plane entered the western airspace, a loud roar came from above the clouds, which frightened Bess very much.

Because the US reconnaissance planes did not climb high enough, they could not see the situation above the clouds at all, but with the sound, Bess understood that the sound of motors of at least thousands of planes above his head would have this effect.

"Reconnaissance aircraft No. 5 reported that a large number of planes appeared in the airspace of No. 8, and it was impossible to confirm whether they were friends or foes because they did not climb high enough."

"Reconnaissance Aircraft No. 5 Report, No. 8 Airspace ......"

Bess repeated it three times in a row, but there was no response from the U.S. military base air command, which made Bess very unhappy. yelled: "Damn, it can't be that the people in the telecommunications room are also on holiday, right?" ”

Then, remembering that it was April Fool's Day, Beth thought that the base command personnel had taken his words as a joke, so he repeated them several times, but there was still no response.

As a matter of fact, the signal of Beess's airborne radio system was being interfered with by the high-power radio of the Imperial Chinese Navy's special service electronic jamming ship, and the telecommunications room of the US military base did not receive his report at all.

The wingman pilot of the 3rd Squadron of the 9th Air Wing of the 22nd Air Force of the Imperial Chinese Air Force, who was flying over the clouds, casually glanced down and happened to see the US military reconnaissance plane flying below through the gap in the clouds, so he immediately reported to the long plane.

"Captain, a pest has been found underneath our fleet and is pleading."

Pest is the name of the Chinese Imperial Air Force for the enemy's air force aircraft, calling the enemy country's aircraft pests, calling the empire's own planes all kinds of birds, and taking the meaning of flying birds to kill pests in the air.

The commander of the 3rd squad quickly reported the situation to the squadron leader, and after receiving approval, he immediately led the six Thunderbolt fighters of the 3rd squad to make a rollover maneuver and quickly dived down from above the clouds.

The speed of the Thunderbolt fighter was very fast, and before Bess could see the appearance of the incoming enemy plane, he was hit by several bullets from the streamer. ╔╗

"Dada-da-da!"

When the bullet penetrated the plane and bass's body, the remaining consciousness of bass heard the sound of fire.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Bess thought he was a good flyer, but he didn't have time to react to enemy planes, which made him die blindly.

In the next second, I saw that Bess and his landline plane were hit by rows of 12.7mm bullets, and in a loud bang, the plane exploded and disintegrated, and Bess was torn to pieces, and the wreckage of the plane was splashed into the sea.

"It's so boring!"

"That's it! It's all over now, and it's not enough yet! ”

The six pilots of the 3 squad were a little disappointed, and after muttering a few times, they quickly pulled up the plane, flew above the clouds, and continued to escort the bomber group.

At the same time, in the telecommunications room of the US military base at Pearl Harbor, the prolonged radio necrogenomic caused the attention of the US military.

However, the US military technicians only believed that the radio system was broken and was being overhauled, but they could not find the problem for a long time.

At 6:25 a.m., a post located in the northern part of Oahu discovered a large number of planes exposed to the clouds, but because the altitude of the Imperial Chinese Air Force was too high, the telescope magnification of the US military post was not enough to see clearly, and it was only reported to the US military base command that a large number of unidentified planes had been found.

Hawaii was still in the morning of Sunday, when the sun had not risen, and only a few people on the island had risen, and most of the soldiers were still resting after the previous night's fooling around.

In the first wave of attack aircraft led by Chen Fei, 3,000 Thunderbolt fighters had a torpedo mounted on their belly and were responsible for attacking US warships in the harbor, and 1,500 Hellfire fighters were responsible for seizing air supremacy and destroying the US fighters taking off with powerful machine gun firepower. At the same time, the 10 rockets will also assist in attacking ground aircraft and key targets. The 5,500 H1N1H2N1 bombers, carrying 28,000 tons of aerial bombs, will be responsible for carrying out saturation bombing of key targets such as the command building, oil depot, ammunition depot, hangar, barracks, hospital, and warehouse at Pearl Harbor, and completely destroying the US Pearl Harbor base.

At this time, the US warships in Pearl Harbor, including the USS Indiana, USS Massachusetts, USS Oregon, USS Iowa, USS Chilshaji, USS Kentucky, USS Illinois, USS Alabama, USS Wisconsin, USS Maine, USS Missouri, USS Ohio, USS Utah, and other 13 old battleships that had been decommissioned and returned to service, USS Virginia, USS Nebraska, USS Georgia, USS New Jersey, USS Rhode Island, USS Connecticut, USS Louisiana, USS Vermont, USS Kansas, USS Minnesota, USS New Hampshire, The USS Mississippi, USS Idaho, USS South Carolina, USS Michigan, USS Delaware, USS North Dakota, USS Florida, USS Utah, USS Wyoming, USS Arkansas and other early 21 Sharpbow-type battleships, 4 old Sharpbow-type battlecruisers USS Montgomery, USS Seattle, USS Phoenix, USS Little Rock, 23 older armored cruisers, 16 light cruisers and 54 destroyers, as well as 78 submarines and 209 auxiliary ships.

At 6:30 a.m., the first wave of attack planes commanded by Chen Feng flew over Pearl Harbor. Chen Fei looked down from the sky, and there were dense warships moored in the huge Pearl Harbor between them.

Chen Fei turned on the internal channel of the group and ordered: "The air wings have made up their minds, the next is Pearl Harbor, while the enemy has not woken up, let's wake them up with bombs!" ”

Nearly 10,000 planes of the Imperial Air Force of China took to the air at the same time, and the huge roar suddenly woke up many people.

On the bridge of the battlecruiser USS Montgomery at berth 19 in Pearl Harbor, the soldiers on guard duty in the tower spotted a large number of aircraft in the air.

"Sergeant Major, look at how there are so many planes all of a sudden?"

The sergeant major took the binoculars and took a look, only to see that the fuselage of these planes was painted with the unique "flying dragon in the sky" logo of the Imperial Chinese Air Force, which was obviously a combat aircraft of the Chinese Empire.

"The unique flying dragon symbol of the Chinese Imperial Air Force, damn it, how can this be?"

"How could the fighters of the Chinese Empire appear here?"

The sergeant major was reminded by his subordinates, and suddenly exclaimed: "Oh no, the Chinese Empire has started a war against us!" ”

With that, the sergeant major immediately picked up the phone and reported the situation to the bridge command room.

However, at this time, there was no duty officer on the bridge. Everyone thought it was April Fool's Day, so they fooled around last night, and they are still sleeping under the covers at this moment.

"Damn it! Pull the alarm now! ”

"Woo woo woo" with the rapid sound of the siren suddenly woke up the sleeping American GIs.

"No, it won't! April Fool's Day doesn't bring such a trick! ”

Most of the U.S. GIs thought it was a prank, and when they woke up, they immediately lay down again. However, soon, the battlecruiser Montgomery discovered the enemy's situation, and many American officers and soldiers in the morning transportation saw the air force group of the Chinese Empire, so more than a dozen battleships successively raised a battle alarm.

At this moment, the sleeping American soldiers suddenly woke up, got up suddenly, and urgently gathered in a panic.

But their speed was still too slow, and the Imperial Chinese Air Force, approaching at high speed in the air, had already opened the bomb bay.

Chen Fei seemed to see the panicked US troops, just sneered, and immediately shouted: "The leaders of each wing should pay attention, and carry out their own operations according to the predetermined plan, from north to south, and do not repeat the bombing." ”

"The First Air Wing understands!"

"The 2nd Air Wing understands!"

"The 3rd Air Wing understands!"

……

After Chen Fei got the replies from the wings, he said, "Bomb as much as you want!" Let the awesome Yankees have a long memory! ”

As he spoke, Chen Fei shook the joystick violently, and his bomber suddenly spun down to the right and began to reduce its flight altitude. At the same time, the bomber groups of the First Air Wing, which followed Lieutenant General Chen Fei, followed the long plane to do the same rollover action and descend in altitude.

At 6:35 a.m., the Imperial Chinese Air Force appeared at an altitude of about 2,000 meters above the city of Wai Fear, north of Pearl Harbor, and the operators in all the bombers marked the fuses of high-explosive aerial bombs, white phosphorus bombs, and gasoline incendiary bombs to detonate automatically in 13 seconds.

A minute later, the bomber group arrived at Pearl Harbor Naval Harbor Area 1 and lowered its altitude to 1,500 meters. At this time, the operators in each bomber opened the belly bomb compartment door.

"Start bombing!"

Chen Fei gave an order, and the operator pulled out the fuse of the aerial bomb, and at the same time released the brake brake, causing the bomb to fall through the bomb delivery hatch.

"Babbling"

Aerial bombs of all kinds roared and fell, and the speed became faster and faster.

"Boom!"

In about a dozen seconds, bombs exploded one after another on the US warship. In an instant, a 500-kilogram high-explosive bomb exploded into countless fragments after penetrating the horizontal deck protection of the US warship, turning into a huge fiery red mushroom cloud. These old warships of the U.S. military, whether they are battleships or armored cruisers, their horizontal armor is very thin, because in that era, battleships were mainly protected from both sides, and they resisted direct shells, so the horizontal armor protection was very weak, and even the battleships had less than 40 mm of armor, and the armored cruisers were even thinner. In an instant, all the facilities within a radius of more than ten meters of the explosion were destroyed, a huge black hole was exposed on the deck, thick smoke billowed out, and flames spread in all directions.

The US officers and soldiers were not psychologically prepared for a sudden air raid, and these soldiers on the second line had no combat experience, and most of them would panic when the real war came.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

In the confusion, the American officers and men quickly fled from the inside of the warship to the outside, thinking that they could avoid the smoke and fire caused by the internal explosion, but they ignored the Chinese Empire's strongest killer weapon, that is, a white phosphorus bomb would fall every few bombs in the aerial bombs.

The white phosphorus bomb exploded in the air, and the high-speed fragments burned in the air, bursting out countless white lines, like a goddess scattering flowers, falling to the ground. The US officers and men who were hiding in Tibet on the warship always paid close attention to the bombs falling in the air, and when they heard the piercing howling sound of the bombs falling, they all looked at the sky with blank expressions. Some astute U.S. soldiers shouted bombs and quickly dodged, but most of the U.S. soldiers did not have the awareness of this, and the bombs fell too fast and too densely, and they simply did not have time to dodge.

Countless falling white phosphorus bomb fragments, accelerated by the explosive energy and gravity, pierced into the bodies of the US officers and soldiers like sharp daggers, quickly corroding the flesh and blood, and the contact parts were like a fiery red soldering iron, and the skin and flesh were suddenly scorched, exuding the smell of burnt meat.

As long as anything on a warship falls on white phosphorus fragments, violent corrosion will immediately occur. Some flammable things, such as the floor on the deck, flags, wooden buildings, clothing, etc., immediately burned, and the white phosphorus bomb even burned the steel of the American warship, emitting a blue ghost fire.

Suddenly, the severe pain caused the American soldiers to cry wolf-like one by one, trying every means to prevent the flesh from being corroded and scorched, but they had no experience with this kind of thing, and all measures were to no avail. Fragments of white phosphorus bombs scattered in the sky splashed on the head or vital parts of the US military, killing the US soldier in less than 10 seconds.

Throughout Pearl Harbor, under the fierce bombardment, dense warships bloomed huge mushroom clouds with black and red colors. These old US warships, which had very weak horizontal armor protection, were scarred by the explosion in an instant.

At 6:37 a.m., the No. 4 gun emplacement on the rear deck of the battleship USS Mississippi was pierced by a 500-kilogram bomb, and a violent explosion detonated the ammunition depot under the ship's No. 4 main gun.

With a loud bang, the Mississippi was the first to explode, the entire stern was blown to pieces, a large amount of seawater poured into it, and the stern of the battleship immediately began to sink.

"Boom!"

The deafening explosions came one after another, like a thunderbolt from the sky, and every time a US warship was hit by an aerial bomb, the entire battleship would tremble violently, and then part of the hull would be blown to pieces.

In just a few minutes, more than 100 large warships of the US army were hit, more than 30 of them were destroyed instantly, and the rest of the ships were emitting thick black smoke, and they were obviously all severely damaged.
