Not long after the Japanese attack began, bad news came one after another.

First, the US torpedo group raided the third attack group, causing damage to the two battleships of Fuso and Yamashiro, and then the Nagumo mobile unit was attacked by sea snakes, losing two aircraft carriers, Kaga and Soryu, and a large number of pilots. Although Yamamoto Fifty-six had been sinking like water, the staff officers in the command room could see that the commander must be in a very bad mood at this time.

"Inform the fleets to stop attacking the fortified operations and assemble in the area where the third assault team is located. In particular, Vice Admiral Nagumo's mobile troops, they are fast, and they must rush to the scene as much as possible to help Vice Admiral Takasu's fleet stabilize air supremacy, and absolutely cannot lose any more important capital ships! ”

"But the commander, Vice Admiral Nagumo, has just reported that the power of the Akagi is continuing to decline, and it looks like it is about to be unable to move. And Rear Admiral Yamaguchi's Wyvern, they ...... They did not retreat with their troops, but pursued the enemy alone. ”

"What did you say!?"

Coldly hearing that Yamaguchi Duowen was chasing the enemy alone with only one aircraft carrier, Yamamoto Fifty-six, who had a calm expression, was suddenly shocked and took the case.

"What a joke! How could Yamaguchi be so confused? Send a telegram asking them to come back right away! ”

"But Lord Commander, our liaison ship has been losing contact since the beginning, not to mention Major General Yamaguchi, and now even Lieutenant General Nagumo can't be contacted."

"Damn it! How so? ”

At this point, Yamamoto Fifty-six had already understood that he had fallen into a trap, and the enemy was well prepared, but they were forced by their own emperor to act in advance. Now there are two choices in front of Yamamoto, one is to rescue the third attack team, and the other is to recover the dead Yamaguchi Tawen.

As a veteran, he is still very clear about this kind of trade-off.

"The action remains the same! Continue to move closer to the 3rd Strike Team......"

Under the command of Yamamoto Isoroku, the various fleets rushed to the vicinity of the third attack group one after another. With their reinforcements, the air defense pressure of the Fuso and Yamashiro ships was greatly reduced. And the TBD brigade of the US army had already run out of torpedoes they brought by this time, and the number of remaining aircraft was less than a quarter.

Fortunately, by this time, follow-up reinforcements from the United States had arrived on the battlefield, and hundreds of SBD dive bombers from Lexington, Saratoga, and Yorktown entered the battle from three directions.

In the other direction, 64 griffons that took off from the Feiyue also appeared on the periphery of the battlefield, and it was they who had been killing the Japanese liaison ships before!

For a time, the three forces of the U.S. military, the Japanese army, and the Star Fort launched a fierce melee, and the six carrier-based planes took advantage of their small and flexible advantages to engage in a desperate struggle with the huge warship. It was also the first time that the officers and men of the IJN discovered that anti-aircraft fire was so important!

That's when it happened. The strongest team of the first attack team finally arrived at the scene. Yamato, who was on the battlefield for the first time, looked at the barrage outside and sighed with surprise on his face.

"Oh my God! It's too confusing, isn't it? ”

At this time, the battle situation was inevitably a little embarrassing for the Yamato and other Japanese capital ships, because the enemy who showed up was only airplanes and no warships. This directly led to the uselessness of their large-caliber naval guns, and the number of anti-aircraft guns was far from enough to deal with so many enemy aircraft.

Taking the Yamato, which is still in the "first version" state, as an example, her 3 triple 460mm main guns are certainly powerful, but at this time, the Japanese army has not equipped it with the famous "self-detonation artifact...... Three-type anti-aircraft bombs, so you basically don't have to count on them if you want to use them for air defense.

Other weapons that can be used to fight aircraft include 6 twin 127mm high-angle guns, 8 25mm triple cannons and 2 13mm twin machine guns. This kind of anti-aircraft firepower is already the best configuration among IJN's active capital ships.

However, compared to these conventional weapons. Yamato's "ability" is the strongest means of air defense!

Just like Kii's psychic charm ability, Yamato, who is also a super-level ship girl, also has his own special ability, and it is even more powerful than Kii's. With the consent of Yamamoto Isoroku. Yamato stepped out of the bridge and onto his second turret.

The other party's appearance was soon discovered by two US fighters who ventured to approach the Yamato. But out of a gentleman's spirit, neither of the pilots on the F4F Wildcat chose to fire at the girl. They merely tested the Yamato's anti-aircraft firepower. Then he turned around and prepared to fly away.

At this time, the leader of the long plane suddenly found that the big-breasted girl who should be the ship's mother took something like a parasol out of nowhere. Then it opens up in this area of broken stars where the light is always like dusk. And at the moment when the umbrella opened, an invisible stance also spread.

The U.S. pilots who were fighting with the Japanese on the battlefield felt that their originally galloping landline movements suddenly stagnated, and their speed dropped rapidly. Even the elf lady jumping up and down in the cockpit disappeared, and the whole plane seemed to turn back into ordinary cargo.

This made the US air force, which could barely fight a war, fall to the situation of being slaughtered in an instant. The Star Fort fighters who fought alongside them lost control and crashed one after another. And in some unnoticed corners, the reconnaissance station of Star Fort is also rolling in place, losing contact with headquarters.

Yamato only used a seemingly simple move to change the tide of the battle in an instant.

"What's going on? And what about our reconnaissance stations and planes? ”

"All of them are lost, it seems that someone has blocked the entire battlefield area!"

"Investigate the cause immediately."

In the general control room of the Star Castle, Zhao Jian, who was originally well versed in the battle situation, became a "blind man" soon after the Yamato appeared. Nearly a hundred reconnaissance stations near the battlefield lost contact with them at the same time, and Shavier had to hurriedly transfer some more from a slightly farther away.

And these newly transferred reconnaissance stations also lost contact after getting close to a certain distance, and Xia Weier tentatively groped for a distance, and finally figured out the scope of this shielding field.

"Brother Admiral, that new Japanese battleship seems to have the ability to shield this area within a radius of 80 kilometers, not only will our reconnaissance station lose contact after entering, but even the planes with crystals will lose contact with the mothership due to the isolation effect, and thus turn back into ordinary aircraft."

"Won't the Japanese planes be affected?"

"It's impossible to make an accurate judgment on this yet, because their planes and motherships are within this range, unless you are willing to let the Qinghai or Feiyue go in."

"Damn it, my plane!" (To be continued......)
