At 14:10 a.m., the US military spared no effort in reconnaissance and finally once again turned the tide of the battle in favor of the US military.

U.S. fighter planes taking off from Midway Island spotted a battleship formation led by Rear Admiral Hiroki Abe of the Japanese Army.

I don't know if it's right or wrong.

According to the arrangement of the US military, the target of these fighters should be the Japanese aircraft carrier group. But a U.S. bomber pilot may have felt a sense of revenge because the morning battle was inconclusive.

So a bomb was dropped from a high altitude. The subsequent battle process is simply a bloody case caused by steamed buns. This bomb is that steamed bun.

Coincidentally, this thousand-pound bomb actually hit the battleship King Kong. The battleship Kongo was not well affected by this bomb, and death was inevitable, but for a battleship with rough skin and thick flesh, it was not a serious injury.

You must know that there were more than 130 warplanes on Midway Island in the morning, and after the whole morning's fighting, more than half of them were lost, and except for shooting down three or two Japanese warplanes, they did not bomb a single Japanese warship at all.

The hit of this bomb immediately aroused the interest of the US pilots.

Maybe the battleship is easy to bomb? American pilots were naïve. The next action was a little more yellow and violent.

The explosion of this bomb was like a spark thrown into a pile of firecrackers, and the US bombers invariably began to bomb the Abe Hiroki fleet indiscriminately.

There are more than 30 fighters dispatched by the US military, and there are not many fighters, but there are quite a few bombers. There were not only B17 bombers, but also Katerina seaplanes. These planes are all bombshells.

The officer leading the US military still has a bit of a brain, and keeps calling it off on the radio. But the bombing by the US military was like a flood that burst its levees, and it could not be stopped from the beginning.

Bombshells began to rain down on the Japanese warships.

Major General Abe Hiroki was frightened by the luxury of the US military and immediately called for help.

Relying only on anti-aircraft artillery, how can we drive away the US bombers who are like hungry wolves? In particular, the US bombers were all bombing at high altitudes, and the role of anti-aircraft artillery was played.

Yamaguchi Tawen has the task of Yamaguchi Tawen, and Major General Abe Hiroki also has his own responsibilities. It was his duty to keep the battleship.

Abe's request was agreed to by Yamaguchi Tamon. Yamaguchi Tawen originally had a bit of an intention to use the battleship formation to attract US fighters in his heart, but using battleships to consume US fighters was obviously a loss-making business. If he really lost the battleship, he couldn't bear this responsibility, so Yamaguchi Tawen sent twelve Zero fighters to reinforce Abe Hiroki.

Yamaguchi's aircraft carrier formation and Abe's battleship formation were not far away, and in just twenty minutes, twelve Zero fighters had already arrived on the battlefield.

As usual, it was a chaotic battle, the Japanese fighters won, and the American bombers quickly withdrew. On the way back, I went to Midway. In the Battle of Midway, this phenomenon was so common that it almost became a common practice. Anyway, as long as the Japanese Zero fighters attacked, they could win the battle. In this melee, the Japanese army also suffered losses. It's just just three Zeros, and the results achieved. Nothing.

Look at the results of the U.S. military. Nimitz is even richer, and I'm afraid he will be angry. More than thirty warplanes, five fighters were shot down, six bombers were shot down and five were damaged. And the result is still the first bomb hit. One or two hundred tons of valuable aerial bombs were wasted on the vast sea by US pilots in a daze.

And the goal is also grossly wrong. It's a waste of waste.

The most intolerable thing for US commanders is not the waste of bombs and warplanes, but the time they have. The bomber formation returned to Midway Island to reload and refuel, and before dark at eighteen o'clock, it was not known whether it would be able to take off again. At the pace of the US military. I'm afraid it's too late, and Midway has been bombed since the morning, and the supply capacity at this time is seriously insufficient, so if you want to attack again, you can only wait for tomorrow.

Tomorrow, whether there will be a tomorrow at Midway, Admiral Nimitz is really not sure.

War is wonderful.

It is said that this was a serious mistake by the US bombers, but the US military's indiscriminate bombing attracted the attention of another wave of US fighters.

This wave of fighters also took off from Midway, but they were carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier formation. The main force was the torpedo formation of the USS Hornet, which did not find its target in the morning and flew back to Midway. Plus several fighters, bombers on the Enterprise and Yorktown. Twenty-eight were made up. Most of these brothers and sisters were homeless at this time, and they were full of anger and ready to take revenge. What is commendable is that none of the 28 US fighters have run away, which is an extremely rare phenomenon among the US air forces at this time.

In the United States, it is common sense that naval aviation is more elite than army aviation. And it is also a rule that the pilots on the aircraft carrier are of a slightly higher level than other pilots.

The pilots were led to the battlefield by the dense sound of explosions. By this time, the American bombers had withdrawn, and the Japanese Zero fighters had nothing to do and began to return to the aircraft carrier formation. Yamaguchi has many orders, and the protection of aircraft carriers is the top priority.

In the face of attractive targets on the sea, these carrier-based pilots of the US military are not as rookie as bomber pilots, they still remember what their goals were, and they did not launch an attack.

The reason why it is wonderful is that an American pilot happened to see the Zero fighter plane returning from the Japanese army. And I only saw one.

The U.S. pilots didn't know that Yamaguchi had tracked U.S. fighter planes and found the USS Enterprise. It was not intended to find the Japanese aircraft carriers by tracking these Japanese Zero fighters. However, these pilots did not make an achievement in the morning battle, and now when they saw that the Japanese fighters were lonely, they immediately beckoned everyone to chase after them.

The Japanese Zero fighters were fast, and the American fighters were slow.

After chasing for twenty or thirty minutes, there were no fighters who could catch up with the devils. Not only did they fail to catch up with the Japanese Zero, but they also lost their way, and a miracle happened when the American pilots were a little discouraged.

Two Japanese aircraft carriers were directly below them.

The Japanese army is not the US army, and there is no radar on the Japanese aircraft carriers at all. They were merely reconnaissance lookouts at visual range.

And the return of the nine Japanese fighters even confused the Japanese lookout posts, watching a group of fighters return from a distance, who can tell which is the Japanese fighter and which is the US fighter?

When the US fighters attacked, not only did the Japanese pilots not react, but even the anti-aircraft artillery did not react.

2:45 a.m.

With the piercing roar of a U.S. dive bomber, a 1,000-pound bomb was smashed down from the air like an iron fist.

Yamaguchi was trembling when he heard it.

The luck of the American military exploded again, and the first bomb hit the deck of the Wyvern, breaking through three layers of steel in a row and exploding inside the aircraft carrier.

Just this moment caused the Wyvern to suffer a lot of damage, and a ball of fire rolled up with black smoke rising into the air.

Whether a rookie is a rookie or not, except for the hit of the first bomb, the continuous offensive of the US army has not been able to form.

The Japanese Zero fighters had already chased after them, and a scuffle ensued. As usual, it was the Japanese Zero fighter who won.

Of the 15 torpedo planes of the US military, only three of them dropped torpedoes, and as always, there were zero successes.

In the more than 10 minutes of scuffle, the US forces shot down 16 fighters of various types, and the result of the battle was the shooting down of seven Japanese Zero fighters.

The results of the debate are much better than those of land-based pilots.

It was fifteen and five o'clock. The U.S. Midway air strike force has been exhausted. (To be continued......)
