In order to sneak attack the Ryukyus, Japan has already bet all its capital on it, and the essence of the navy has been sent. As the saying goes, there is great hope, and there are great disappointments, and now three large aircraft carriers have been sunk. One was damaged, and the essence of the Japanese Navy was lost by two-thirds at once.

Moreover, the most important thing is the loss of a large number of pilots, which Japan cannot bear the most, and even in later generations, carrier-based aircraft pilots are the most valuable branch of a country, and it is very difficult to train.

Japan first sent more than 200 planes to make a sneak attack, but they suddenly crashed into the iron plate, and these fighters were basically shot down, and the pilots were either captured or fell into the sea to feed the sharks, except for the battle death.

With the sinking of three Japanese aircraft carriers, more than 150 warplanes were sent to the bottom of the sea, and more than 50 Japanese planes were shot down in the course of pursuit, and Japan lost more than 400 elite pilots.

In addition, with the Battle of Singapore and the Battle of the Coral Sea, the Japanese lost nearly 600 skilled pilots, which was completely beyond the limit of what they had been able to bear. Even if Japan pays more attention to the air force than it did in this time and space, and has established a perfect pilot training mechanism, the number of carrier-based aircraft pilots in Japan is still insufficient due to the limitations of its national strength.

After the loss of the best 600 people, there were less than 100 full-fledged pilots left in the Japanese Navy. Everyone can produce airplanes, and aircraft carriers can be made with hard work, but pilots really can't do it quickly, and now they have lost their essence, and they can't recover even if they end the war.

Although when Tokyo got the news of the fiasco, all the high-level officials collectively lost their voices, and Prime Minister Hideki Tojo's face turned green, he also knew that this time Japan was really dangerous!

News of the decisive victory of the Chinese Navy was soon announced, and the first to be encouraged were the allies, and the Americans were undoubtedly the happiest. The attack on Pearl Harbor made the United States hate Japan to the fullest. But the Battle of the Coral Sea has already been told to the United States. Compared with the Japanese Navy, the United States still has some way to go. It will take a little time for industrial power to be transformed into war capability.

Roosevelt was also under a lot of pressure, and his greatest fear was the complete collapse of Australia and the threat of Japan to the West Coast of the United States. Once the Japanese soldiers landed on the American mainland. Even if the United States were to finally defeat Japan, it would be an indelible stain on the president.

But when Roosevelt learned that Japan's two largest aircraft carriers had been sunk by China, Roosevelt breathed a sigh of relief, and the alarm was finally lifted. Roosevelt immediately delivered a warm congratulatory message. Praise China's victory.

Soon after, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Russian master Joseph Stalin issued similar congratulatory messages, and China was also very excited, eliminating the core of the Japanese Combined Fleet and eliminating the Japanese threat to China's coast. China will then be free to attack Japan without fear that Japan will attack itself.

Just after the defeat of Japan, Chen Shaokuan commanded the aircraft carrier group to move directly eastward, attacking numerous Japanese strongholds in the Pacific Ocean, including Truk. Wherever the Chinese aircraft carrier went, it immediately set off a sea of fire. Anyone or anything, as long as it has a Japanese label. No one can escape the fate.

Truk is an island that Japan snatched from Germany after World War I, and the United States and Britain and other countries have little interest in these small islands like broken jade, and Japan has taken advantage of it. After Japan acquired these islands, it painstakingly managed them as pillars in the Pacific Ocean.

Truk is one of the most important islands, and the Japanese Combined Fleet has set up its headquarters here, and there is a large airfield on the island, and Japan has arranged for more than 300 planes to be stationed here. Truk was also made an unsinkable aircraft carrier by Japan, Gibraltar in the East.

However, Chen Shaokuan did not care about the Japanese boasting, and after the Chinese fleet arrived, it launched a fierce bombardment of the place, and the Japanese planes barely responded, but they were all shot down quickly. More than 100 fighters were also destroyed on the airfield, and the Japanese suffered heavy losses.

The small island, which had no sea supremacy, proved to be completely vulnerable, and after destroying most of Truk's defenses, Chen Shaokuan commanded his army to turn back north. His main task this time was not to capture territory, but to sabotage, knock out Japan's maritime fulcrum, and at the same time cut off the connection between the Japanese mainland and the Nanyang colonies.

Japan's seemingly huge colonial empire was all sustained by the navy, and now without the navy, Japan has nothing, and Chen Shaokuan sank more than 600 Japanese merchant ships, more than 800 aircraft, more than 130 warships of various types, and more than 5,000 personnel in a single walk.

This is equivalent to destroying most of Japan's maritime lifeline, and the Japanese side can only watch, there is no way, just when Chen Shaokuan led the army to make trouble in the Pacific Ocean, Qiao Yu has already ordered the South China Sea Fleet's Fuyuan and Jingyuan two aircraft carriers to be transferred to the northern line to cover the Chinese army to launch a landing operation against Jeju Island.

In the face of absolute superiority, the Japanese defenders only resisted for ten days before announcing their surrender, Jeju Island was occupied, and soon the island became an important advance position for the Chinese Navy and Air Force. The island's existing airfield was also utilized, and a large number of Chinese bombers were stationed on Jeju Island and began to bomb the Japanese mainland.

With the loss of Jeju Island, Japan's control of the Korean Strait also disappeared, and the Japanese army trapped in Busan completely lost its maritime assistance and became a turtle in an urn.

In addition, the veteran Zhang Zuolin also commanded the Chinese army to cross the Outer Khing'an Mountains and defeat the Japanese army in the Far East. As the saying goes, there is no double blessing, and there is no single line of evil. Japan's bad luck is not over yet. China sent troops into South Asia, and most of the Chandra forces that had fallen to Japan were cut off.

In the process of attacking Chandra, it was not the Chinese who were most active, but the Congress Party headed by Gandhi, who were all high-class aristocrats of Brahmin origin and hated Chandra's agrarian revolution. With the support of the Chinese army, these native Indian nobles finally rose to the occasion, and Chandra's forces were shattered.

Not to be left alone, the Americans seized this golden opportunity and began to organize a counteroffensive from Australia, where they fought the Japanese army. The actor MacArthur also regained his fighting spirit, and kept declaring that he would completely throw the Japanese into the Pacific Ocean to feed the sharks.

The rise and fall was so subtle that before the surprise attack on the Ryukyus, Japan also had the most powerful army in the Pacific, completely suppressing the United States. But in the blink of an eye, the country was in rapid decline, like a meteor, bright but soon disappeared into the night sky.

The main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet has been lost, and the Pacific Theater has entered a new stage, that is, when it is time to snatch the fruits of victory, whoever is quick will be able to take more advantages.

Of course, the new generation of US aircraft carriers has not yet been launched, and the advantage of time is still on China's side. The cunning Roosevelt sent another invitation to Qiao Yu at this time, hoping to convene a meeting of giants, where the heads of state of the four major powers would gather together to discuss a strategy to counter fascism.

This is just a slogan for the outside world, and the most important thing is to discuss how to divide the world.

But just when the situation in the Pacific theater was very good, there were problems in Europe again, and the new aircraft carrier of the Nazis was about to be launched!

At the start of World War II, the German Navy had three aircraft carriers and was very powerful, but due to hastiness, the Bismarck and Munich were sunk, and the British still firmly controlled the sea dominance.

However, Germany has already tasted the sweetness from aircraft carriers, and Hitler's enthusiasm for aircraft carriers has not diminished at all, and he has been urging the Nazi Navy to produce newer aircraft carriers as soon as possible to seize sea supremacy for Germany.

In addition, Germany wanted to restore the Tirpitz and put it back on the battlefield. However, the British would never allow Nazi aircraft carriers to threaten their maritime security again, so British bombers frequently frequented German shipyards and did everything possible to obstruct the construction of German aircraft carriers.

Britain's obstruction still had an effect, the construction of German aircraft carriers was seriously delayed, and the Tirpitz was difficult to repair, coupled with the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, which occupied a lot of German resources, making the Nazi aircraft carriers in difficult labor.

However, when Germany's plan to defeat the Soviet Union quickly failed, Hitler had to set his sights on aircraft carriers, and he wanted to rely on aircraft carriers to defeat Britain first, so that the United States would lose its tentacles to reach out to Europe, and at the same time be able to prevent the disgusting strategic bombing.

With Hitler's support, the construction of the Nazi aircraft carrier was accelerated again, and the restoration of the Tirpitz was in the final stages. Germany's actions naturally could not escape the eyes of the British, and after Lao Qiu got the news, he was immediately shocked, and the memories left by the Nazi aircraft carrier were too painful. The British Empire almost lost its supremacy of the sea, and it was arguably the most dangerous moment for Britain since the Industrial Revolution, and Napoleon never made Britain so afraid.

In a year's time, the German aircraft carrier was about to fight again, how could Churchill not be frightened, looking around the world, the only people who could help Britain in the navy were the United States and China, so Churchill had to ask Roosevelt and Qiao Yu for help.

The world's major giants are fully aware of the current situation, Japan is at the end of the road, the biggest threat is still Germany, and only by eliminating Germany can it be regarded as a final victory.

However, except for a few aircraft carriers that supported the situation, the US aircraft carriers all stayed in the dock and did not go into the water, so they were simply powerless.

Everyone's eyes had to fall on China again, and Qiao Yu also knew that with the victory of the Ryukyu Naval Battle, the situation in the Asia-Pacific theater had eased a lot, so China could send an aircraft carrier formation to Europe to assist Britain in the war.

But the aircraft carrier appearance fee is very expensive, and if you want to invite this big name, you must come up with enough benefits. Therefore, Qiao Yu immediately proposed to exchange it for the Indian Ocean route! (To be continued.) )
