The 168th octopodo attack aircraft

Five 08 a.m. On the battleship King Kong, the lookout suddenly pointed to the northwest and screamed: "What is that?" ”

Matsuji Ijiin, who had just turned around the captain's room, immediately ran out when he heard this, and he leaned on the railing to look in the direction of the lookout's finger, and saw a few black spots, and his eyelids couldn't help but jump wildly.

Blue Volcano was driving Xiang Yong's 1113 white-sided dolphin this time, and Xiang Yong served as his co-pilot. After returning from the last feather, all the cadets of the Qiongzhou Flying Brigade held their breath, and in their opinion, this mission was a great opportunity for them to wash away their previous shame.

When the Qiongzhou Flying Brigade was training, it flew as far as the Dongsha Islands. For this reason, they were appointed by Xue Changkong as pioneers. A total of four white-sided dolphins were formed in two groups and flew all the way to the southeast according to the coordinates provided by the Dahuajiao radar station.

Long before it was discovered by the Kongo lookouts, Blue Volcano spotted the Nagasaki supply fleet. "Xue Tou, I saw a group of enemy ships!"

"Report the bearings, slow down and wait for the main force to get closer."

"The specific direction is ......"

Man Jiang was in charge of another two-plane formation, while his wingman was piloted by Chen Shaoyao. The two of them were talking on other channels at this time. Man Jiang said: "Shaoyao, let me see if there is progress in the flight training in the past few days." ”

"Vice-Chief, you see, I'll impress everyone."

"Okay, I'll see."

The Nagasaki supply fleet has already begun to adjust its formation. Amid the terrible sound of battle sirens, fourteen warships of various types began to spread out to protect the perimeter of the fleet, while thirteen supply ships and armed merchant ships moved closer to the center.

In about ten minutes, the 0008 piloted by Xue Changkong flew to the sky about two thousand meters away from the fleet, and under his command, the other twenty air fortresses lined up in three long snake formations, and then, the seven air fortresses that were responsible for the first round of bombing tasks accelerated and flew out, moving closer to the enemy ships while reducing their altitude.

When the altitude was reduced to about 3,000 meters, and there was still a horizontal distance of 800 meters from the enemy ship group, the enemy ship's anti-aircraft fire opened fire. In the sound of the explosion, one after another prevention and control shells exploded in front and below the group, and one cloud of smoke after another was blown away by the wind, forming a smoke screen area.

"It can be executed!" With Xue Changkong's order, the seven bombers slowed down and flew towards the sky above the enemy ship, and immediately, one bomb after another smashed down on the sea area where the enemy ship below was located with a sharp whistling sound.

When the Flying Fortress cluster began to bomb, on the other side, eight improvised fish bombers hid behind the white-sided dolphin cluster like ghosts, ready for a sneak attack.

In the face of the Flying Fortress cluster dropping bombs at an altitude of 3,000 meters, the powerful anti-aircraft fire of the supply fleet frigate group was magnificent, but it did not have any practical effect. And the record they have achieved is nothing more than three bombs exploded in the air.

The detection capability of the Dahuajiao radar station is actually very crude, and its biggest drawback is that it cannot accurately detect the tonnage and other data of enemy ships. And this made the long-distance sneak attack that Ouyang Yun and Tie Lin Fei had painstakingly prepared a lot of disgrace. And without torpedoes, which are special weapons for large ships, this battle may not even be able to sink a ship.

Twenty-one aerial fortresses carried more than a hundred tons of bombs ended up sinking only three ships, one of which was a frigate with a displacement of only more than three thousand tons. The unfortunate frigate was hit by three bombs in succession in the ammunition compartment, and as a result, it was killed and directly exploded in two and sank into the sea. The other two ships sunk were both fuel supply ships, including an armed merchant ship with a displacement of 16,000 tons. The merchant ship was hit on the port side by a bomb that had a certain armor-piercing effect and directly tore a hole more than three meters long on the port side, and then detonated the fuel stored in the hull. With a loud bang, the ship broke in two and was swallowed up by the sea.

After the Aerial Fortress Group completed the bombing mission, except for the 0008, the others were about to return, and seeing that the bombardment of this density actually only harvested three enemy ships, many students couldn't help but feel unacceptable: "Master, I miscalculated, I don't know if there is a loss in the road." ”

More than 100 tons of bombs cost a lot of money, but only three ships were sunk, which really made them feel unwilling.

Xue Changkong didn't expect the enemy ships to be so strong. After carefully examining the results of the bombing, he changed the battle plan he had drawn up before departure, and told the white-sided dolphin group to abandon the attack on the armed frigates and instead attack the supply ships with all their might. "If it doesn't sink, it will be paralyzed, and if it can't be done, all the devils on it will be killed!" He shouted on the public channel.

The pilots who fly the white-sided dolphin know it.

Dense bombs fell, and in the end, only three of his own ships were sunk, which calmed the mind of Ijiin a lot. "The people of China miscalculated, they don't know how to deal with such a large ship, only torpedoes can form effective damage?" Thinking so, he looked up at the sky and secretly prayed in his heart: Amaterasu blesses, there are no torpedo planes in the Shina fighter.

White-sided dolphins swooped down in the face of intense anti-aircraft fire, most of them dropping their two bombs before strafing back and forth to supply the ship's crew. The anti-aircraft firepower of the Nagasaki supply fleet was at least five times stronger than that of the Taiwanese supply fleet, and the white-sided dolphin was shot down in less than three minutes.

To everyone's surprise, the fall of this white-sided dolphin would actually cause a monstrous fire.

Two fuel supply ships that sank one after another leaked a large amount of fuel, and miraculously, the fuel did not catch fire due to the explosion of the loaded ship. However, as the white-sided dolphin smashed into the fuel-filled water and exploded, a fire spread around the surface of the store, and soon the entire area of the Nagasaki supply fleet was completely ignited.

The aviation gasoline burned extremely violently, and the thick smoke produced greatly affected the vision of the devils on the Japanese ships, and at the same time provided excellent cover for the eight modified torpedo planes.

Without Xue Changkong's order, the eight torpedo planes broke through the anti-aircraft fire network of the Japanese frigate one after another, and rushed headlong towards the location of the supply ship.

The tonnage of the ships of the Nagasaki supply fleet was completely unexpected by Xue Changkong, and seeing that it was impossible to deliver a devastating blow, Xue Changkong immediately decided to devote all his firepower and bombs to the operation of the supply ships. And it turned out that he was right in this decision.

Eight torpedo attack aircraft of modification, each carrying two torpedoes. Sixteen torpedoes were thrown into the sea, and then "swam" to their respective targets with the screams of the little devils.

With nine loud bangs, ten of the sixteen torpedoes hit the target, one of them was dumbfired, and the other nine were successfully blasted. Of the ten target ships, five were hit in key parts, and the gap below the gangside was blown open by the boss, and then they entered the water and sank. Of the others, four did not touch a single torpedo, and one managed to survive because only one compartment was flooded.
