About 500 nautical miles from Los Angeles, a large fleet is moving at full speed, and all the large warships are flying a bright golden dragon flag, which is accompanied by a naval flag with the earth and the sea as the background, which is the Chinese Pacific Expeditionary Fleet that plays hide and seek with the Americans.

Due to backward radar technology, even though the Americans with deep pockets have deployed a lot of radar monitoring networks along the coast similar to those set up by the British in the English Channel, the effect is general. The main problem is still in the detection range and detection height.

"Report!"

A communications staff officer hurriedly walked into the command room of the flagship war room and handed the report he had just received to Ge Yunsheng, "Commander, according to the monitoring report of the Sea Hawk, the Americans have all abandoned their slower warships and formed a second echelon fleet. The current main fleet size is about 70% of the entire U.S. naval force in Hawaii.

According to the report of the airborne downward-looking radar, the American fighters are taking off and landing frequently, and it is suspected that a large-scale operation is about to take off.

In addition, at the enemy land-based airfield in the direction of Los Angeles, one of our Seahawks has just sent back a monitoring report, with frequent takeoffs, and the airfield is on combat alert, but it is only searching over the coastal sea, and there are no more abnormal actions, and the whereabouts of our fleet have not been discovered. ”

Ge Yunsheng frowned, although the decisive battle between China and the United States will be staged soon, but this initiative surname cannot be in the hands of the Americans, "How is the change in the reconnaissance force of the Americans?" ”

"According to the report of our high-altitude hunter-destroyer group, the number of American reconnaissance planes is increasing, and there are about 25 US reconnaissance planes clinging to us, all of which are equipped with more practical sea surface scanning radars. According to the plan, the total number of US reconnaissance planes we shot down has already exceeded 20, and we have successfully confused the Americans. ”

The operational staff officer stood up and completed his report.

At this time, the sky was just dawning, and the weather was very good, which was the best weather for carrier-based aircraft to take off into the air.

The Chinese and US fleets also entered the optimal combat distance at this clear dawn, a distance of about 300 nautical miles, and if the American carrier-based planes were allowed to bite to the death, then it would not be long before the US carrier-based aircraft group would take off like locusts and pounce on the Chinese fleet.

At this point, every second counts.

"Commander, now is the time, give the order."

With Gao Xiaochuan's words, the senior staff officers of the fleet who were surrounding the two of them all stood up and saluted, waiting for Ge Yunsheng to give the order to start the war.

Ge Yun reorganized his military uniform, walked to the command platform, looked at these officers who were eager to fight, and gave a sonorous order: "Now I announce that the Battle of Los Angeles has officially begun. The hunter-destroyer group was ordered to immediately destroy all the American carrier-based planes biting behind us, and the entire fleet immediately made a detour at a large angle and flanked the direction of the American fleet, and the combat carrier-based aircraft group was ready to attack. ”

"Yes!"

All the Wehrmacht naval officers present shouted with red faces, including Gao Xiaochuan, that the Wehrmacht has always maintained a high attitude of seeking war, and spiritually speaking, if this battle is won by a great victory, the Wehrmacht Navy will be a great hero and a warrior in opening up a new pattern in the world's oceans. Materially speaking, after this battle, everyone will enjoy a very generous reward of War Points.

As soon as the order was issued, a buzzing operational siren sounded on all ships of the fleet, and the officers and men of the whole fleet took their positions and waited for the order to act. Each captain took the lead in standing in front of the open fleet radio, the battle order had been issued to the captain level, and the commander was about to make a combat speech.

"Comrades, on behalf of the Chairman of the Committee, I have the honor to order you that the countdown to the general offensive of this naval battle has begun.

For us in China, the modern century is a century of humiliation, foreigners drive warships and cannons, blast open our country, rob our wealth, torture and kill our people, cut off our land, burn our homeland, and trample on the soul of our nation.

However, we never gave up on the effort of revival.

Since Mr. Zhongshan raised the banner of anti-imperialism, Chairman of the National People's Congress founded the Baath Party, built the southwest, and planted the seeds of hope for the rejuvenation of China.

Thirty years of lying on the salary and tasting courage, all industries are prosperous, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is said to be strong. Reform and development of the economy at home, declaration of sovereignty abroad, with the strong combat power of our people's army, won many battles, won many battles, and finally ushered in the best situation since the Tang Dynasty.

A hundred years ago, in the face of the strong guns of the foreigners' ships, our soldiers could only stand on the fort and helplessly burn their fighting spirit and were wantonly killed. And now, the Pacific Fleet, created by the powerful industry of the Republic, will fight a decisive battle with the Americans in the most fearless, frontal, and resolute manner on the sea, with unprecedented fighting spirit.

After this war, in the Pacific, there is no me!

Now, I declare that the Battle of Los Angeles has officially begun, and the officers and men at all levels must firmly carry out the order, children, good luck! ”

At the same time, a US military reconnaissance plane was flying dozens of nautical miles, at a height of more than 3,000 meters, and there was another plane at a low altitude of more than 1,000 meters a few kilometers to its left. The third and fourth planes are rapidly pulling up from ultra-low altitude sea level, and the radars on the four planes are turned on at full power, and they are biting the Chinese fleet dozens of nautical miles away.

"X1, x2, it's your turn to maneuver."

The pilot of the X3 reconnaissance plane, the leader of the reconnaissance aircraft squad, and Captain Griffins, who was climbing rapidly, ordered the other two planes of the reconnaissance aircraft squad.

“ok。”

The X1 and X2 reconnaissance aircraft quickly descended in altitude and dived towards ultra-low altitude sea level.

"Good luck to you. Damn God, damn the Chinese. ”

Captain Griffins said jokingly that the reconnaissance aircraft squad under his command had eight planes before, but had been shot down by air defense fighters near the Chinese fleet, and the four that flew at the front had been shot down.

This new reconnaissance aircraft, modified from the F4U fighter, is lightweight, fast, has a large range, and is also equipped with a dual-purpose radar for sea and air, but in the previous encounter, Griffins was depressed to find that those Blue Shark fighters were all equipped with airborne radar. Only then did he discover that the Chinese, like the US military, have basically popularized radio, radar, and other things that were relatively advanced a few years ago on the advanced carrier-based aircraft of the Navy.

No matter how the four L4 reconnaissance planes accelerated, they could never get away from the pursuit of the Blue Shark, and in this way, the four pilots were blown up by the volley and the plane and the people after watching the Chinese fighters approaching at high speed on the radar.

Griffins escaped and succeeded in sending back a very important reconnaissance report, as he and three other aircraft in the back of the plane were forced to urgently descend in altitude and successfully evade the Chinese Blue Shark's airborne radar at ultra-low sea level.

According to Griffins' professionalism and the feedback from the rear main fleet, he believes that there are high-altitude blind spots and low-altitude blind spots in the Chinese' shipborne large radars and airborne radars.

Therefore, the main rear fleet, which received the report, quickly came up with a set of reconnaissance plans, and all reconnaissance detachments had to use low and high altitudes as cross-maneuver plans. Some reconnaissance planes conduct reconnaissance at medium and high altitudes, while some planes need to fly at ultra-low altitudes to evade Chinese radars.

Although it is not clear what the actual radar surname and various parameters of the Chinese are, according to the analysis of some radar surnames that the Americans have obtained from the British and Germans and even Yu himself, the approximate Chinese radar surname can be explored.

As a result, the Griffins reconnaissance team, which had only four planes left, successfully got out of many dangerous situations.

"Young men, as long as you keep an eye on the Chinese, you will be the heroes of the war."

Griffins knows very well that as long as the Chinese fleet can be kept an eye on, once the Chinese fleet enters the combat range of a suitable land-based air force, then the fleet behind it that is ready for take-off and combat will give the Chinese indelible memories of disaster.

"The Chinese will be sunk off the coast of the United States, and we will create an unprecedented sea battle, which will be a great victory for our America."

This is the most pleasant prediction, Griffins even seems to see himself because of the success of staring at the Chinese fleet, and make great achievements, and then return to the United States to enjoy the treatment of heroes, with his beloved woman, lying on the victory of the Chinese, enjoying the happy life of the United States.

"Oh...... Oh, my God!!! ”

For such a momentary fantasy, Griffins didn't even react at the moment when the radar screen was abnormal, and in an instant, he was scared into a cold sweat, there were multiple high-speed targets approaching on the radar screen, and the other party's speed was too fast, and L4U's airborne radar couldn't accurately distinguish the number.

"**, enemy aircraft approaching at high speed, immediately reduce the altitude, dodge!!"

Without Griffins' order, the L4U reconnaissance aircraft, whether it was climbing or descending, took immediate action. Two flew towards high altitude, while Griffins and the other flew towards ultra-low sea level, trying to escape to a safe distance of the remaining 20 kilometers or so to a high altitude or ultra-low altitude.

However, as soon as he reached sea level and entered the level flight of Tielang, Griffins heard the bad news from his headphones.

"**, the Chinese guy bit me...... no……”

Immediately, a loud explosion came from the headphones, which was the last movement of X1, but a moment later, there was another extreme fear of curses from X2, and then an explosion, and X2 was shot down.

"God, Chinese jet fighter ......"

This was the last report of the X2 aircraft, and he was luckier than the X1 aircraft, at least before he died, he reported the model of the enemy aircraft.

"Damn it!" When Griffins heard this, he immediately fled quickly at sea level with his superb piloting skills, although he was extremely confident in his piloting skills, but he had his own fears in the face of this latest fighter. As the captain of a reconnaissance plane, he has received all kinds of high-intensity training, and at least on the issue of the world's advanced fighters, he knows that the F-86F Poseidon jet fighter in Hawaii is not something that the L4U he pilots can compete with in terms of radar ability and speed.

However, he was still very sad to find that on the advanced three-dimensional radar of the L4U, the Chinese fighter tracking him not only did not get thrown off, but quickly lost altitude, and finally chased after him at an ultra-low-altitude angle.

“nononono……”

Seeing that the ultra-low-altitude horizontal flight could not evade the Chinese fighters, Griffins still tried to pull up the plane and escape, but in the end, he was still accurately shot down by the Chinese jet fighters coming from the rear. At the moment of falling into the sea, Griffins saw three very beautiful silver-white jets with golden dragons flying over him.

He didn't even understand how the Chinese accurately pursued his ultra-low-flying self before he died.

Of course, he didn't understand, because a big guy who had been staring at him just now was indifferently scanning the sea at an altitude of more than 7,000 meters, and this was a large radar reconnaissance plane, the Sky Falcon-3X early warning plane.

This is also the most advanced early warning aircraft in the Republic so far, with the strongest actual combat effect and a certain degree of air command capability.

"Report, General, we have lost contact with all reconnaissance aircraft. We suspect that they have already been shot down by the Chinese. ”

From time to time, Admiral Nimitz, commander of the Pacific Fleet, aboard the USS Washington, the flagship of the pursuit fleet of the US Pacific Fleet, received this extremely angry report. (Correction: The commander of the Pacific Fleet is Nimitz, and MacArthur is the supreme commander of the Pacific Theater.) Just now, the battleship of the White Shark, the ship of Theater Commander MacArthur, had left the fleet and retreated to a safe sea, because the general offensive was about to begin.

"Immediately send more reconnaissance planes and take off the F4U to escort them, and we must regain control of the accurate direction of the Chinese."

Nimitz angrily ordered, two or three hundred nautical miles in front of the advanced carrier-based aircraft, it is also a distance that takes a long time to cross, damn the Chinese, seize the best opportunity to attack.

If the group is ordered to attack at full speed at this time, there is only one result, if the Chinese change course and escape, the group will lose the initiative in the vast sea, and even if the Chinese's fleet is found, the initiative will fall into the hands of the Chinese again.

The admiral was furious, and the sudden change of events made him feel as uncomfortable as a clenched fist hitting cotton. In his irritability, he even smashed the ashtray on the door, which frightened the staff officer of the report into a daze.

The Combined Pacific Fleet under his command is very powerful, and after receiving strong support from the Atlantic Fleet, it has concentrated about 70 percent of the strength of the US Navy.

However, the Chinese's rush to the US mainland made General MacArthur, the supreme commander of the theater, and the US political axe and the Admiralty all reach an unprecedented unanimity: desperate and all-out pursuit.

As a result, a large number of old escort carriers and light aircraft carriers were left behind, because they were too slow to keep up with the rhythm of the fleet, and these old things, which were very useful against merchant ships and submarines, and even against land bombing, could not adapt to Armageddon at sea. And the damned Chinese have a large number of new warships, fast speed, large displacement, and strong ability to continue sailing.

However, even if about 30% of the old forces were left behind and a second-echelon fleet was formed to keep up, Nimitz was still confident.

The main fleet has as many as 50 aircraft carriers, all of which are combat-capable, and even if the Chinese have more than 20 main aircraft carriers, he is still confident. After all, in terms of the number of carrier-based aircraft, they have a great advantage. If it weren't for the sudden attack of the Chinese on the mainland, plus the remaining 30% of the force, the odds of victory would be even greater.

"Order the 3rd battle group, the 4th battle group to take off carrier-based aircraft and go to the airspace of No. 11, and the other battle groups are ready to take off."

However, he still gave the right order, and the take-off of two carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier battle group, 250 F4U Corsair carrier-based aircraft, will be able to deal with any possible unexpected incidents.

...... ordered the five D-3 electronic warfare planes on standby at high altitude to immediately make preparations for all-out interference with the US fleet.

All Falcon early warning planes and Sea Hawk reconnaissance planes were ordered to occupy a safe altitude, monitor the US fleet and aircraft group, detect the enemy's maneuver, communicate with air combat commanders, and escort the major air battle.

The aircraft carriers carrying the Sea Dragon fighters in the fleet were ordered to immediately take off all the HL-1 carrier-based aircraft, and the B and C battle groups immediately took off the HJ-2 and 3 carrier-based fighters in full force to cooperate with the Sea Dragon fighters to compete for air supremacy.

Battle Group D and Battle Group E immediately took off the bomber group, waited for the opportunity to act, and prepared for an air attack on the US fleet. ”

Ge Yunsheng gave a simple order, and the actual battle plan naturally had a more detailed breakdown.

Unlike the 11 aircraft carrier battle groups of the main fleet of the US military, the entire China Pacific Expeditionary Fleet is divided into five aircraft carrier battle groups. This kind of super-large-scale combat fleet is no longer suitable for integrated command, and only by dividing them into multiple battle groups, with battle group commanders, and commanding at all levels, can the overall coordination of the fleet be maximized and stronger combat effectiveness can be brought into play.

China's five aircraft carrier battle groups, ranging from four to six aircraft carriers, have a total of 22 aircraft carriers, and the total number of aircraft carried in the actual number reaches 1,200.

As for the US military, according to the forecast of the fleet staff, the number of aircraft carriers of the pursuing US main fleet should be about 50, which is an unprecedentedly large combat fleet composed of about 150 combat ships. Although the aircraft carrying capacity of the main aircraft carrier is relatively strong, there are also quite a few aircraft carriers with a scale of 20 to 30 aircraft, and the overall number is close to 1,800.

This scale is already very scary, even if the number of fighters in China, the United States, Germany, and the Soviet Union has exceeded 10,000 now, which is about the same as the level of the original World War II era where Zhang Shusheng lived, but a large fleet of nearly 2,000 carrier-based aircraft is also a very terrifying number. Although in the original history, when the Americans attacked and bombed the mainland, they could easily use thousands of carrier-based aircraft and dozens or even more aircraft carriers. However, this is also due to the characteristics of the times, aircraft carriers generally have a small displacement, the number of auxiliary combat ships is not large, automatic weapons such as missiles and air defense systems have not yet been popularized, and the super-large fleet still has a very strong role today, if it is the 21 st century where Zhang Shusheng is located, dozens of modern aircraft carriers are a fantasy.

The entire offensive plan was divided into two phases.

In the first stage, the Sea Dragon jet carrier-based fighters will be the main force, and the HJ-2 and HJ-3 Blue Shark fighters will be used to seize air supremacy. After all, the size of the Americans' fleet is so large, with a total of nearly 4,000 aircraft on both sides, it will be an unprecedented naval battle that will shock the world.

In the era of radar, no matter whether China is equipped with electronic warfare aircraft or how it makes a surprise attack, it is impossible for a super-large fleet to be wiped out overnight, and large-scale carrier-based aircraft air combat will be the inevitable way. Only after seizing air supremacy over the fleet will it be possible to completely annihilate the opponent's fleet.

After all, the best anti-aircraft weapon for aircraft carriers is still a carrier-based aircraft in this era when missiles have not yet become widespread and anti-aircraft guns are rampant.

Therefore, in order to win the large-scale air battle, Ge Yunsheng first ordered all five electronic warfare planes to prepare for electronic interference. With such a huge fleet and a lot of US military weapons and equipment, although it is unrealistic to attempt electronic warfare planes to comprehensively suppress the enemy's fleet, it can greatly interfere with and undermine the US military's command system.

Just imagine, if a huge combined fleet of more than 100 ships is sabotaged to interfere with the command and interfere with the radar network, it will mean a disaster.

According to the plan, in addition to going all out to interfere with the US fleet, the D-3 will also cooperate with the interference of the US aircraft group, do its utmost to weaken the combat strength of the US forces, and increase the relative combat strength of the Chinese fleet.

After electronic jamming, it is the early warning, detection, liaison, and command of early warning and reconnaissance planes.

Even if such a large group of air planes takes off in batches for operations, it is impossible to rely on early warning planes and reconnaissance planes to command, and can only serve as an assistant to the commanders of the air group.

If the action to seize air supremacy goes smoothly, the Wehrmacht's bomber group will be able to pounce on it and first use anti-ship missiles to destroy some large US aircraft carriers from a high altitude, disrupt the US fleet's air defense formation and arrangement, further weaken the US military, and lay the foundation for a total offensive of total annihilation.

As Ge Yunsheng gave the battle order, the operational sirens over the entire fleet sounded again, only this time, not the sirens of combat preparations, but the sirens of the beginning of combat operations.

All five carrier battle groups are ready for takeoff.

Since all large planes such as electronic warfare planes and early warning planes have taken off except for one or two standby planes on duty, they have the ability to stay in the air for a long time, and they are enough to hold out until the end of today's large-scale air war.

In a certain sense, if we put aside a small number of advanced jet fighters and anti-ship missiles, which are weapons that defy the sky, what really puts the Chinese Navy in an absolutely dominant position is the three treasures of high-altitude and high-speed reconnaissance planes, early warning planes, and electronic jamming planes.

Not to mention anything else, the U.S. military doesn't even have a radar to search for that flight altitude.

Because in the traditional theory of air warfare, it is an absolute height, and it is also an altitude that will not pose much threat to the land and the fleet. However, they do not understand that under the new combat theory, new weapons have long been detached from the purely combat responsibility of the surname, and have appeared more in the form of auxiliary combat.

In the past, these new pieces of Chinese equipment were in a state of top secret, and even if they were secret equipment, they did not allow the Americans to intercept intelligence at all, even if they knew that the Chinese had some inexplicable new equipment, they did not know the specific function.

However, after the sea battle, the Americans will be surprised to discover that it is the sharp fangs of the Chinese who are deeply hidden and hidden by the national Taoguang strategy, and all the hideous truth is revealed in the sea battle.

On the bridge of the flagship of the Yellow Emperor, Ge Yunsheng and Gao Xiaochuan looked at the flight deck, draped neatly, and the first wave of Sea Dragon fighters was ready to take off.

At this time, Xuyue's position was not high, and from a distance, it was almost illuminated from a horizontal direction towards the aircraft carrier. The dawn was cast onto the plane on the deck, reflecting a dazzling light.

"Ready! It is possible to take off. ”

The pilot of the Hailong carrier-based aircraft, who was in the first take-off sequence, made a clear and accurate gesture to the commander outside through the glass of the plane.

"Take off!"

The commander waved the signal flag in his hand violently, and he, wearing headphones, also shouted, "Attack!!" ”

The Sea Dragon fighter was immediately started, the jet engine burst out with a violent roar, and then the fighter aimed at the runway with a certain elevation angle, taxied at full speed, and then, the fighter accurately pulled up in front of the take-off safety line at the elevation angle, and jumped into the air at a standard elevation angle, with a domineering take-off mode.

As the first Sea Dragon carrier-based aircraft took off, Ge Yunsheng and Gao Xiaochuan, as well as other pilots waiting to fly, air defense operations and other auxiliary combat officers and soldiers, also raised their hands in unison and saluted, and the decisive battle began!!

Second, third, fourth...... More and more carrier-based aircraft are taking off from aircraft carriers, and the aircraft carriers that take off jet fighters are moving the most and are very fast. The aircraft carrier that takes off the propeller fighter, although the individual speed is slightly slower, but the overall speed is faster.

Often on an aircraft carrier, 5 or even 15 take-off sequence aircraft can be arranged.

Take-offs are almost only 10 seconds apart, and well-trained pilots, flying propeller planes, take off at such a high frequency, but it is like a common thing.

If the devils were able to do it when they bombed Pearl Harbor, the elite pilots of the Republic naturally did better.

Ge Yun's saluted hand did not drop for a long time, and in his entire line of sight, there were all warplanes taking off, covering the sky. There are a large number of warplanes taking off at every moment.

They flew into the air and quickly formed a three-plane or five-plane formation, one formation after another, a squadron after a squadron, a squadron into a brigade, and finally a cluster of air planes.

In Ge Yunsheng's eyes, the group representing the hope of the Republic and the hope of the Chinese Pacific Fleet set off...... Thirty years of China's rise, twenty years of China's navy...... The time that I had dreamed of many times had finally arrived.

The picture that I have dreamed of many times is right in front of me.

What was once taught to them, what encouraged them, has become a reality today.

For more than ten years, these carrier-based aircraft pilots of the Republic Navy, who have grown up by themselves, will complete their greatest mission on this day.

He knew that as long as the children could achieve the final victory, then, even throughout World War II, their exploits would be enough to be written into the ranks of the highest merits of the republic.

Because their victory will inevitably open a new era, it will inevitably be the real turning point of World War II.

"It's beautiful...... If the children can triumph, I will be dead and blind...... Children, bless you all. Bless China. ”

Ge Yunsheng's eyes slowly flowed out two lines of old tears, crying silently!

But his mind echoed the song sung by the beautiful singer of the art troupe of the National Defense Forces Headquarters before the expedition and during the art show:

It's been too long to know each other, and I can't count the years we share, because we have experienced the beacon fire, and we are more familiar with each other's feelings, whether it is the first take-off or the final farewell, none of us will forget the wordless telling......――――――――
