For the Pacific Fleet of the US Navy, there are too many accidental factors, ranging from the reconnaissance plane's failure to discover the attacking group of the Japanese to the death of a Japanese fighter plane crashing into the control tower, and God does not favor the Americans.

The command organ of the Pacific Fleet of the US Navy was completely destroyed by a Japanese fighter plane before death, and all the fleet commanders, including the fleet commander, Vice Admiral Fallwood, were reduced to a puff of ashes at the moment of the explosion, and there was no time to fear!

General Folwood, who had already been killed, and his subordinates in the fleet, did not see that just behind the attacked fleet, more than a hundred Japanese warships appeared on the sea level, and, getting closer and closer, the officers on the American warships that fell behind, through the binoculars, could see the thick black barrels slowly raised on the Japanese warships!

The fleet commander was all killed, and the other warships of the Pacific Fleet did not know it, but the black smoke and flames rising from the flagship "McKneed" had a very great psychological impact on them, which meant that not a single warship in the entire fleet was spared the attack of Japanese planes!

General Yamamoto, holding a telescope, stood on the command tower of the flagship "Nagato", looked at the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke everywhere, and looked at the fleet carrier-based aircraft that bravely pounced in the air, a feeling of enthusiasm and pride instantly spread throughout his body, he was proud of the strong armed forces of the Japanese Empire, and the warriors of the Yamato nation were fearless in their fighting spirit, and his blood was boiling!

Another US Navy Pacific Fleet. Ending in their own hands, their fate was already sealed, Yamamoto calmly ordered: "The fleet is deployed in battle formation, encircling and annihilating the remnants of the US Pacific Fleet, and the battle must end within an hour!" ”

More than 100 Japanese warships pounced on them like hungry wolves, more than twice as many as they were, and they were full of vigor and murderous intent, and there were more than 200 fighter planes in the sky, and the sea and air forces were attacking in a three-dimensional way. The shells of the naval guns rained down on the American warships emitting smoke and flames, and a naval battle, which lasted to the end, turned into a one-sided slaughter and show.

An hour later, the main force of the US Pacific Fleet completely disappeared into the waters of the eastern Pacific Ocean, and the surging waters flooded more than 50 warships of the US Pacific Fleet. The sea and the sky have returned to calm. If it weren't for the struggling and howling US sailors, the oil stains, and the faint color of blood on the sea, no one would have known that just now, a sea battle that decided the balance of naval power between the United States and Japan ended with the annihilation of the main force of the US Pacific Fleet!

The battle was over, with a complete victory for the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, and Admiral Yamamoto was proud enough. The two Pacific Fleets of the US Navy before and after were folded in his hands, but now, he frowned slightly, and after the battle was over, the sound of gunfire still sounded, which can only explain one point. Japanese soldiers, according to their own habits, were slaughtering American sailors who had fallen overboard.

Admiral Yamamoto is very unaccustomed to the soldiers' approach. In his opinion, the enemy, who has been completely defeated, is not worth wasting bullets and shells, even if they are lucky enough to get their lives, and when they return to their homeland, the shadow of defeat in the battle will accompany them for the rest of their lives, and the fear they pass on will also be the myth of the invincibility of the Imperial Japanese Navy, which is much more meaningful than destroying their **!

This time, Chief of Staff Matsuda, accurately aware of the inner thoughts of His Excellency the Commander, said, "Commander, do you want to give the order to stop the soldiers' actions?" After speaking, look at General Yamamoto's face, and then look at the floating corpses of American sailors on the sea, bullets hit it, and there were clusters of blood, and the imperial sailors who were obviously in the pleasure of killing were actually appreciative!

Admiral Yamamoto shook his head, in the face of the habits that have been handed down, even if it is himself, there is nothing he can do, within the imperial army and navy, there is such a tradition, if you want to trace the source, probably from the beginning of this century, the period of the Russo-Japanese War, he has not been arrogant to the point that Cheng Dù, who is against the whole tradition, is not found by his own conscience, or is very humanitarian, but he just thinks that there is a more effective way than destroying the ** of the defeated miè!

There is no way to stop it, only to acquiesce, the soldiers after the victory need a way to express victory, however, Admiral Yamamoto, obviously not interested in this, he withdrew his gaze from the sea where the slaughter was going on.

More than twenty minutes later, Yamamoto said to Chief of Staff Matsuda: "It's okay, order the fleet, in a combat posture, retreat at full speed for fifty nautical miles, and all carrier-based aircraft, immediately land, replenish fuel and ammunition, and prepare to meet the next wave of opponents!" ”

Chief of Staff Matsuda was taken aback and asked: "Commander, do you mean that the Americans' land-based aircraft group?" He couldn't believe that His Excellency the commander, who had just achieved such a feat, was still unsatisfied and had attracted the attention of the American land-based aircraft group, where did his self-confidence come from?

Yamamoto smiled proudly and said: "That's right, in less than an hour, the Americans' land-based aircraft group will arrive, and since they are here, they don't need to go back!" My carrier-based aircraft have sufficient fuel and ammunition, and the Americans' land-based aircraft fleet, flying long distances, can hold out in air battles for as long as they can, even if it is the Americans, another gift to the United Fleet! ”

After retreating, the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy was on full standby, and the first wave of carrier-based aircraft fighters had been pushed onto the take-off deck, and the propellers were rotating at a low speed, and once the order was received, they could immediately take off into the air, and even after combat attrition, the number of carrier-based aircraft in the combined fleet was still equal to the number of land-based aircraft group fighters of the US military.

The Japanese pilots sitting in the cabin exuded the fierce momentum after the great victory, and in their eyes, there was a strong murderous aura after the bloody killing, and the great image of General Yamamoto had penetrated into the hearts of every Japanese pilot, and they all firmly believed that as long as it was a battle arranged by General Yamamoto, there would be only one final result, and that was victory! The glorious victory of the Imperial Japanese Navy's armed forces is best exemplified!

More than a dozen reconnaissance planes flew in the direction from which the US land-based aircraft group came, and the entire combined fleet, like a blood-soaked katana, exuded a fierce murderous aura, ready to tear any enemy apart at any time!

The 23rd Fighter Wing of the US Air Force, which took off from Sinhati Air Force Base in Los Angeles, is a reinforced wing with more than 160 fighters of the latest type, and its strength can rank among the top five in the fighter wing of the US Air Force, but like all fighter wings of the US Air Force in 1941, it has a huge shortcoming.

The entire wing, less than one-sixth of the pilots who have experienced air battles, and the rest are novices who have never seen blood, Colonel Vig Hamann, the commander of the wing, after receiving the order from the Air Department, beat the drum in his heart, flew long distances, and brought a group of novices, how to fight this battle?

When there was still more than 40 minutes of flight distance from the battlefield of naval warfare, Colonel Vig Harman received a telegram from the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, the "McKin", before it sank, and the content of the telegram made his hair blow up all over his body, "What happened?" The entire fleet has lost more than 90 percent of its warships, that is, the Pacific Fleet has been almost completely wiped out! ”

If there is the cooperation of the carrier-based aircraft of the Pacific Fleet, the wing is still sure that it will compete with the carrier-based aircraft of the Japanese Navy, but the two aircraft carriers and all the carrier-based aircraft have sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the comparison with the number of Japanese planes suddenly becomes not optimistic, Colonel Vig Harman hesitated, and after discussing with several captains, he made a decision, the wing could not take the risk and rush to the battlefield where the situation was unknown.

Besides, even if they arrive, I am afraid that the Pacific Fleet has been completely wiped out, and the rescue operation of the 23rd Wing has lost any meaning, so all of them will return immediately! More than 160 US land-based fighters drew a graceful arc in the blue sky and turned around and flew back.

General Yamamoto, who received the report, was very regretful, regretful and even a little disappointed, it could have been the end of a winning streak, but he lost it like this, and he couldn't judge why more than 160 land-based fighters of the US Air Force turned around?

If it were a wing of the Empire's land-based air forces, when faced with such a situation, it would never be like the Americans, who would not rush forward without regard for a single thing, and even if the whole army was annihilated in the end, it would still deal the most ferocious and heaviest blow to the enemy whose hands were stained with the blood of his compatriots and comrades-in-arms.

Putting away his thoughts, Admiral Yamamoto ordered: "The fleet immediately sailed to the waters near Hawaii Island to rendezvous with the first aircraft carrier formation, Rear Admiral Masakage should have ended the hunt, that area of the sea will be dyed bright red by the blood of more than 60,000 American soldiers, and the sea will be full of corpses of American soldiers, from the bottom of my heart, I don't like to see that kind of situation!" Report the results of the battle to the base camp and the Admiralty! ”

On the other side of the ocean, in Guangzhou, China, the Guangzhou Garrison District Command, the office of Tang Qiuli, the commander of the independent division, the chief of staff, Zhao Yuhe, and Major General, took a telegram and knocked on the door to enter.

Tang Qiuli looked at Zhao Yuhe's face, and had already guessed a rough idea, and sure enough, Zhao Yuhe said: "Division commander, I just received an urgent telegram from the director of the intelligence department, the naval battle between the Japanese and American fleets in the eastern Pacific ended ten years ago, as you expected, the Pacific Fleet of the US Navy was completely wiped out, and more than 60,000 US Army soldiers were buried at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean!" ”

"However, according to the telegram from the intelligence department, the naval battlefield is divided into two places, and the distance of the battlefield is less than sixty nautical miles, division commander, why is this happening?"
