Their astonishment lasted only a dozen seconds. Because the radar soon showed that the formation of the five TBF Avengers quickly lowered their altitude and moved away to the southeast.

Instructions were issued in the chain of command to keep all crew members calm and vigilant.

Because of this...... If we look at it according to the most daring and crazy idea, it can indeed be understood as the five planes that disappeared during World War II have traveled through time and space to 60 years later.

But another explanation can also be made - the gate of truth got these five broken planes from somewhere, and played a trick with the purpose of "disturbing the morale of the military". This explanation may sound insulting to one's own intelligence, but at times like these, it is the ultimate explanation that everyone wants to believe.

At all costs...... It's too strange to travel through time and space.

Lu Renjia held back for a while before muttering, "What the hell are you doing?" ”

Xiao Bingyi grinned: "Don't think about it. Hell yes. The day before yesterday, I saw a man breathing fire from the palm of his hand - what is impossible in these days? ”

Lu Renjia grinned reluctantly. When such an incident happened, it swept away the previous feeling of anxiety in my heart. The time to come is to come, and when it comes, a stone is laid down—though it is not clear whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Both breathed a sigh of relief. It was at this time that the entire fleet began to descend in altitude, preparing to converge with the formations of friendly forces.

The Reich's bomber groups were not escorted by fighters. Because they will be dealing with xenomorphs, not human nations with the same amount of air power. But to be on the safe side. As they approach the American continent, the U.S. Air Force and the Canadian Air Force will still send an air formation to escort the aircraft in case the increasingly powerful species may create alienated creatures capable of conducting aerial operations.

The two sides are expected to meet in five minutes. However, once he dropped his height, Xiao Bingyi felt that something was wrong.

There seems to be something wrong with the positioning system - they are off course.

This should not have been possible before. Because they didn't fly solo, but a whole group of bombers. Satellites in space will provide them with accurate positioning and navigation, even if they are difficult to lose themselves at the South Pole or the North Pole, let alone "go off course".

But for now, working satellites are almost non-existent – electrical power mysteriously failed in the space of a year, most of the fragile and expensive satellites in low-Earth orbit have become piles of space junk, and new military satellites have not been launched for the time being.

But even so, it seems that the course should not be so outrageous.

Now their location should have been near the west coast of the United States. However, what is shown on the meter is ...... They are a thousand kilometers from the Hawaiian Islands.

This means that they are not only going in the wrong direction. And it's even farther from the intended location!

Lu Renjia's face turned pale. He pursed his lips and didn't speak.

What happened today was so abnormal that he felt the inexplicable fear and apprehension in his heart resurface, and his chest seemed to explode.

At this time, Xiao Bingyi said in a low voice: "Look. ”

Lu Renjia followed Xiao Bingyi's gaze and looked at Lu Xia-

I saw a fairly large fleet on the sea. Visual inspection. It was supposed to be a fleet of six aircraft carriers and a large number of escort ships. I am traveling on the sea at high speed.

"When did the Navy run out?" Lu Renjia narrowed his eyes. "It's not our navy, it's ......"

He found a large sunrise on the deck of an odd-looking aircraft carrier. Earthy yellow deck, bright red sun. But when viewed from above, it looks like a drop of blood.

That fleet was still ahead of them, but the sound of the group flying high in the air seemed to alarm the people on the ship, and Lu Renjia vaguely saw a few small dots running up to the deck, as if looking up at them.

"It's the Japanese Navy." Xiao Bingyi pulled down the far-sighted mirror from his helmet and said suspiciously, "These people ...... How did you pull this stuff out? ”

Lu Renjia also pulled down the eyepiece, and then saw the appearance of the aircraft carrier painted with the rising sun on the deck. If it weren't for the planes on deck, he would have thought of the ship as a freighter—it didn't look very shabby, but it was a far cry from what they knew of as an "aircraft carrier" in terms of size and superstructure. It's like the kind of old ships that have been repurposed and dragged out of old shipyards by various countries when the power has not been restored ten days ago.

As for the other escort ships......

Lu Renjia felt that he had seen several battleships that had long since withdrawn from the Imperial Navy.

He took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Bingyi, and grinned reluctantly: "They want to use this kind of World War II ship to fight against the species?" ”

But Xiao Bingyi's eyes were a little dull in response. He was stunned for a long time, and suddenly spit out a sentence from his mouth like a dream: "Who do you think crossed over?" ”

Because he looked through the telescope, he saw that the "aircraft carrier" painted with the bright red rising sun on the deck had two big characters written on the other side of the hull - Akagi.

USS Akagi - what is this thing?

In his mind, the only large ship in the Japanese Navy named "Akagi" was just a battle cruiser. The warship was involved in the landing in Indonesia in 1944 and was sunk by a German submarine......

How did another aircraft carrier of the same name "Akagi" come out?

Both the Imperial Navy and the Japanese Navy had the same tradition of naming ships - the same name would be carried over forever, and even if the original ship was sunk, the new ship would be given the same name. For example, the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, the "General Zhenguo" - the history of this name can be traced back more than 500 years!

This fleet undoubtedly belonged to the Japanese Navy. However......

Such a name, such an old-fashioned ship......

Xiao Bingyi muttered to himself again: "Who do you think crossed over?" ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

In the waters of the Pacific Ocean, the assault formation of the Japanese Navy, the aircraft carrier USS Akagi.

The commander of the assault formation, Vice Admiral Nagumo Tadaichi, looked into the sky in disbelief.

Like a cloud of steel, the group of planes slowly approached from the rear of the fleet like a moving hill.

He subconsciously clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist and asked the person next to him again: "Can't confirm your identity?!" ”

The communications officer bowed his head grimly: "Yes." The enemy aircraft does not seem to belong to the air force of any known country, and their insignia is - Beaulie. ”

"Beaulie?" Nanyun Zhongyi frowned, "You said Panlong? ”

"Yes. It seems to be ...... The dragon of the Chinese people. The communications officer said in a deep voice, "We have been silent, and we are unable to get in touch with each other for the time being. ”

He paused, and then added, "The other party is slowing down, and they seem to be following us." Your Excellency, could it be the Air Force of the Chinese people......"

Nan Yunzhong glanced at him. The Communications Officer immediately shut his mouth - in fact, he himself thought his thoughts were rather funny.

It is impossible for the people of China to have the strength of the air force of this magnitude, let alone to be here at this time - the assault formation is only more than 500 nautical miles from Pearl Harbor. Halfway through the trip...... Americans' largest naval base in the Pacific Ocean will be burned out. However, at this moment, such a large group of bombers suddenly appeared in the sky......

There was an uncontrollable fear in everyone's heart.

This means that this top-secret military operation - "climbing a new mountain", most likely, has been exposed!

Nagumo Zhong's hand on the hilt of the knife tightened and loosened.

He really couldn't figure out what the huge group of planes in the sky was going to do—if it was a group of American bombers, there was no reason why they shouldn't pounce and attack. And if it is the fleet of the Axis powers, there is no reason to remain silent and silent like your own.

Dense bomber formations were in the middle of the sky behind the assault fleet, like bystanders from nowhere.

However, at times like these......

There can be no neutral bystander.

He picked up his binoculars and glanced at the swarm of planes in the sky.

In fact, it would have been impossible for him to see the bombers in the sky. But one of them broke out of formation, lowered its altitude, and skimmed diagonally over the formation...... It's like a reconnaissance mission.

A reconnaissance mission carried out by a heavy bomber.

The unimaginably large body, the streamlined body, and the blue-black skin that reflects the sun's rays. On the wings was the emblem of their formation, a golden dragon, surrounded by a milky white cloud. His hand holding the telescope couldn't help but tighten again.

Because he knows it better than the vast majority......

There should be no such thing in this world.

Even if it's not clear how well they perform, just by their appearance - any soldier should realize that it should be some kind of extremely advanced aircraft!

As soon as Nanyun Zhongyi put down the binoculars, he said in a deep voice: "Pick up General Yamamoto." ”

Admiral Yamamoto. The commander of the Combined Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy, Isoroku Yamamoto, is at the moment on the Japanese mainland atop the Nagato, the flagship of the Combined Fleet.

Admiral Yamamoto was clearly surprised to receive information from the forward fleet at such a time. But when Nagumo Tadaichi telegraphed the Imperial Admiral to give a brief account of what was happening, the Supreme Commander at the end was silent for three seconds.

He stared at the messages in his hand, noticing some of the unusual messages.

The unidentified fleet appeared out of nowhere. They lowered the altitude and were subsequently detected by the ship's radar. It was a sudden encounter, which was true, according to the information in the message.

Because they did not immediately increase their altitude and did not try to attack the assault fleet, but sent a bomber to make a low-altitude reconnaissance.

It's not like the enemy army, but like the other side hasn't figured out the identity of the assault fleet.

If you're a little more optimistic, it's more like a reaction to an ally.

However...... The dragon of the Chinese people? (To be continued......)
