BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1288: Be determined to win (ask for a monthly ticket)
"Hi, General!" Colonel Sanwa Yoshiyuki replied.
Over the United Fleet\'s 2nd Aircraft Carrier Squadron, there are 12 Zero fighters escorting it. This is already the last Zero fighter of the entire aircraft carrier team. After receiving the order, these Zero fighters immediately rushed to the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy. Although they know that there are many powerful fighter jets in the German Navy\'s carrier fleet. If they rushed forward, it would be no different from sending them to death. However, they simply have no other choice. When the fleet is facing the critical moment of life and death, they can only fight desperately.
On the sea, the Island Navy’s 2nd Aircraft Carrier Squadron has also entered air defense mode. Four aircraft carriers are guarded in the center by heavy cruisers, light cruisers and a large number of destroyers. In addition to the four aircraft carriers in the second aircraft carrier battle group, there are two "Furutaka-class" heavy cruisers and two "Aoba-class" heavy cruisers, four "Sawauchi-class" light cruisers and 16 destroyers. Such an **** force can be considered very powerful. However, neither Lieutenant General Koji Kakuda nor Colonel Sanwa Yoshiyuki had much confidence in resisting the attack of the German Navy\'s carrier-based aircraft.
At this time, the carrier-based aircraft group of the German Navy has approached less than 50 kilometers away from the second aircraft carrier team of the United Fleet of the island nation. 48 carrier-based BF-109 fighters are covering 96 dive bombers and 48 torpedo attack aircraft. This time, they are determined to win the aircraft carrier of the Japanese navy.
The aircraft carrier formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet suffered heavy losses, which made the carrier-based aircraft pilots of the German Navy feel the pressure. If they cannot destroy the aircraft carrier of the island navy in this battle, they may be suppressed in the next battle. Such a result is undoubtedly unacceptable to them.
"Attention all squadrons, the attack will start in ten minutes. The fighter squadron suppresses the enemy\'s anti-aircraft firepower, the dive bomber squadron and the torpedo attack squadron, and sink the Japanese aircraft carrier!" Colonel Johannes, the commander in charge of this operation, ordered .
"Understood, sir!" The squadron leaders replied.
"Found 12 Zero fighters!" A fighter squadron leader reported.
"3rd Fighter Squadron, get rid of them! The rest of the fighters, continue to operate!" Colonel John Interior ordered.
"Yes, sir!" replied the squadron leader of the 3rd Fighter Squadron.
He immediately led the 12 carrier-based BF-109 fighters of the 3rd Squadron, and accelerated towards the 12 Zero fighters of the island navy.
"Boom boom boom!"
The battle broke out in an instant, and 12 carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets of the German Navy launched an attack condescendingly. The cannon on the nose fired violently, and the shells shot at the Zero fighter of the island navy at high speed.
Two Zero fighters were blown up on the spot, became fragments, and fell into the sea. As for the pilots, they were shot dead on the spot. The other Zero fighters quickly dispersed to avoid it.
"Damn, we\'re under German attack, ready to fight!"
These Zero fighters are already at a disadvantage in the face of the BF-109 fighters of the German Navy. So much so that they were completely suppressed by the fighter jets of the German Navy in the ensuing battle, and there was no way to attack other carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy. Under the pursuit of the German Navy\'s carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets, they couldn\'t even protect themselves.
"General, our interception failed. The Germans dispatched fighter jets and suppressed our fighter jets. The German fighter jets are rushing towards us!" Colonel Sanwa Yoshiyuki, his face pale.
"Get ready to fight! Then we will rely on our own anti-aircraft firepower. Even if we cannot withstand the German attack in the end. However, we must shoot down enough German carrier-based aircraft to make them pay dearly for it The price!" Lieutenant General Kakuda Koji said.
Sanhe Yoshiyuki nodded heavily, knowing that they could not escape, finding a way to shoot down more German carrier-based aircraft became their only way. In that case, it may also be a major weakening of the strength of the German navy.
"Fighters cover, dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft start attacking. Sink the **** warships on the periphery, and then attack the aircraft carrier at the core!" Colonel Johannes ordered.
"Yes, sir!" Everyone replied imposingly.
The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy were divided into four fleets directly according to each aircraft carrier, and rushed towards the four aircraft carriers of the island fleet. Because a squadron of fighter jets went to deal with the fighter jets of the island navy. Therefore, the other three fighter squadrons each allocated three fighter jets to provide fire support for the other fleet.
"Boom boom boom!"
The anti-aircraft guns of the island fleet fired first, the 127mm large-caliber anti-aircraft guns are full of power. But unfortunately, no matter how powerful it is, it must be able to hit the target! Otherwise, it\'s just a waste of shells.
The German Navy\'s carrier-based aircraft group dispersed, looking for targets to attack.
Although the anti-aircraft firepower of the navy of the island country is very fierce, it is actually not a big threat to the fast-flying carrier-based aircraft at a long distance. hit. Of course, when attacking at close range, the possibility of being hit will further increase.
"Da da da!"
The fighter jets providing fire cover took the lead in launching the attack. They used aviation machine guns and machine guns to straf the anti-aircraft gun positions on the warships of the island fleet, suppressing the anti-aircraft firepower, and opening the way for subsequent dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft.
The destroyer \'Urakaze\' is a destroyer that provides protection for the aircraft carrier \'Ryujo\'. Located in the southwest corner of the aircraft carrier Ryujo. In the other three directions, there are destroyers \'Isokaze\', \'Tanikaze\' and \'Hamakaze\'. In front of the "Ryujo" aircraft carrier is the "Furutaka" heavy cruiser, and behind it is the "Naka" light cruiser. These six cruisers and destroyers provided tight anti-aircraft fire protection for the aircraft carrier "Ryujo".
However, the destroyer "Urakaze" became the breakthrough point of the German Navy\'s carrier-based aircraft and was violently attacked.
