AC516: Instant explosion
Just as Shavier guessed, Yamato's special ability is indeed in the shielding realm, and it is also specifically aimed at ancient human technology.
Although theoretically, as long as the aircraft carrier as a mothership also flies into this field, it can restore the energy supply to the doppelganger crystals, but this also means that the fragile aircraft carrier has to venture into the range of the Yamato's main guns, and this ability makes the Yamato a veritable "aircraft carrier nemesis"!
Under the effect of this special ability, more than 300 planes of Star Fort and the US military lost contact with their respective motherships in an instant, and became live fish at the mercy of the Japanese army on the battlefield.
In comparison, Zhao Jian's loss of automatic AI is not too distressing, and his plane has a self-destruct program on it, so he doesn't have to worry about being captured by the Japanese army, but the U.S. military is different!
Their fighters, each of which had pilots trained with great difficulty, lost so many elites at one time, and the distressed Nimitz was almost fainting.
And relying on Yamato's shot, the Japanese fleet of Wolf Bèi finally stabilized its position. Yamamoto counted his own losses and found that nearly two-thirds of his ships were damaged.
In terms of large warships, the Fuso and Yamashiro ships were damaged, but because the US attacks were mainly concentrated in the rear of the hull, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a big break just by looking at the second half. After the two ships returned to China, they had to lie down in the shipyard for a year and a half, otherwise they would not want to participate in the war again.
In addition, the two aircraft carriers, the Kaga and Soryu, were confirmed to have been destroyed, and the wreckage of the hull was abandoned by Nagumo Tadaichi, who retreated in a hurry. The Wyvern pursued it alone and has not yet been contacted.
Yamamoto originally planned to organize the three Kongo-class ships and some light cruisers at hand to chase Yamaguchi Tawen, but considering that the enemy's strength was unknown, Yamamoto did not dare to put the three Kongo-class ships in it. The Japanese fleet, which had been slaughtered in a mighty way, fell into a dilemma for a while.
At the same time, the US task force, which also suffered heavy losses, was also arguing in command about whether to continue the attack. The Japanese army's sudden one-handed shielding made the US military lose more than half of its carrier-based aircraft and pilots at once.
At present, the aircraft carrier is relatively complete, and only one Enterprise remains. The other three can barely pull out about 60 usable planes when they get together. It will definitely be enough for these planes to launch another offensive, but after launching the four aircraft carriers, they will all become bare-bones commanders.
Just as Nimitz was hesitating, a communication suddenly came from the allies' side. Zhao Jian obviously knew what the other party was hesitating at this moment, Zhao Jian didn't want Nimitz to make the mistakes of the Japanese, and always wanted to finish the battle, so the telegram he sent was concise and to the point, a total of four Chinese characters.
"Take it when you see it."
Nimitz, who had reacted vigorously, immediately gave up the idea of attacking the Japanese Grand Fleet again, and soon Zhao sent a new telegram, and Nimitz opened it and immediately smiled.
"Hey, hey. These cunning guys are really afraid that we will be idle! ”
The telegram sent by Zhao Jian was a set of space coordinates, which accurately told the location of the Nimitz Japanese logistics fleet, and the meaning was obviously to hand over the fat sheep to the US military to take care of.
So in order to find something to do for the Enterprise, which was watching almost the whole time, Nimitz drew an elite team from the task force of his headquarters and asked them to follow the Enterprise and bypass the Japanese fleet to destroy the other party's supply fleet. Without logistical supplies, it won't be long before the Japanese army chooses to retreat.
Soon the U.S. fleet was divided into three operations. One way, he covered the three aircraft carriers that had run out of carrier-based aircraft and returned to China through the No. 2 Stargate to rest, the other route led by the Enterprise to attack the Japanese army's baggage, and the rest continued to lurk in the Shattered Star Zone, preparing to fight guerrilla warfare with the Japanese Zhou Xuan.
This is the end of the battle. For the U.S. forces, they are nearing the end, they have achieved their tactical goal of wanting to hinder the advance of the Japanese army, but for the Star Fort on the other side, they still have a lot to deal with.
Zhao Jian had just sent out his capital ship formation. Yamato's shielding field made him very interested, and all the main sisters under him said that their hands were itching, so they were ready for a rare hard encounter. Try each other's catties. I can't afford a "family bucket"!
Life and death are all downsized, and a single vertical is to do!
However, not long after the departure of Zhao's main fleet, something unexpected happened to them. Within two hours of their departure, radar showed that an aircraft carrier with a displacement of about 18,000 tons was rushing towards their location.
Seeing the other party's indomitable posture, Sister Chuan, who led the team, couldn't help but feel very puzzled.
"What kind of tiger is Nima trying to make trouble with this battleship-like tiger?"
At this time, the aircraft carrier that was rushing towards the main fleet of Star Castle was the Flying Dragon that the Japanese army had left the team to pursue without authorization. Yamaguchi Tawen led the Wyvern in pursuit of the retreating enemy planes, trying to follow them to find the enemy carrier, and then launch a fierce attack to avenge the Kaga and Soryu.
Among the several air units of the Japanese army, the bombing technology of the Second Air War was indeed the best, which was due to the harsh flight training that Yamaguchi Tawen usually did. Yamaguchi believed that as long as he found the enemy's aircraft carrier, he would be able to quickly counterattack the opponent with the elite soldiers he had personally trained.
But what he didn't expect was that Qinghai had already seen through his intentions. Therefore, the returning carrier-based aircraft group deliberately pressed the speed to let him chase after him, and then quietly turned around halfway and flew towards the main fleet that had just gone out. Yamaguchi Tawen and his Flying Dragon were directly introduced into the ambush circle by the black-bellied Qinghai.
Soon the reconnaissance plane of the Wyvern spotted a large fleet in front, and after hearing the information transmitted from the front, the captain of the ship, Jio Calai, instinctively realized that something was wrong, and they may have fallen into the arms of the enemy's large fleet.
But as the commander Yamaguchi Tawen didn't notice this at all, and at this time, there were only two obsessions in his mind: counter-killing and shame. No matter how smart a person is, once he gets into the horns, he will not escape the possibility of making low-level mistakes.
"Commander, the situation is a little wrong, we seem to have bumped into the enemy's main force!"
"It doesn't matter, the other side shouldn't have discovered us yet, now release the carrier-based aircraft, and then quickly rise beyond the asteroid belt, and as soon as the attack is over, we will evacuate at cruising speed."
"But what about carrier-based aircraft? Once the enemy reacts, we simply don't have time to recover it. ”
"There won't be many pilots who will survive attacking the fleet of this kind of Cheng dù."
"Commander! You ......"
He didn't expect the commander he had always admired to say such cold and ruthless words, and the Wyvern felt a little incredulous for a moment. But in fact, this is the truest side of Yamaguchi Tawen as a commander, and the "gentle Tawen Maru" will never appear in war.
Under Yamaguchi's order, the Wyvern, which thought it had not yet been discovered, began to release carrier-based aircraft, and the Star Castle fleet on the opposite side also cooperated and made a blank look. Watching the elite soldiers of the Second Air Force under his command rely on their superb flying skills and use asteroids to continuously approach the enemy ship, Yamaguchi Tashi seems to have seen the picture of the enemy ship being shot and catching fire.
However, at the moment when the Japanese planes had successfully touched the attack distance and were ready to move, the enemy ships that had been sailing in a cruising formation were one step ahead of the other!
As soon as the Japanese fighters who had already touched the approach flew out from behind the asteroid that was used as cover, they heard a strange roar in front of them, and then several dense beams of bullets swept through their formation, and the plane turned into a pile of debris in an instant, like glass shattered by a heavy hammer.
Compared with the Japanese warships that lack air defense capabilities, the Zhao warship's side is precisely one of its strengths, and it has good air defense capabilities in the three stages of far, medium and near, especially the latest phalanx that has begun to be installed, which makes the close fire resistance of the Star Fort battleship reach the point of madness.
Therefore, the main fleet deliberately let the carrier-based aircraft of the Feilong approach, just to test the power of this new anti-aircraft gun, and the result was indeed as Zhao boasted at the beginning, the carrier-based aircraft of the Feilong were wiped out in front of dozens of dense arrays before they could even hold out for five minutes.
Then Sister Chuan took a group of sisters and surrounded the Flying Dragon with bad intentions...... (To be continued......)
