"I don't care about this, as long as the declaration of war can be sent." Halsey waved his hand and said, "I'm going to sleep for a while, call me when I have dinner." After finishing speaking, he left the bridge.
Hewitt stared dumbfounded at Halsey who was going away and murmured: "It's only three o'clock in the afternoon, and he can really sleep." How did he know that it was Halsey's old man who took a big nap before the war? Once he got used to it, he not only used sleep to relax his mind, but also stored enough energy.After all, if the war dragged on, it would probably last for days and nights.
At three o'clock in the morning, the aircraft carriers of the Halsey Mobile Fleet turned on their deck lights, and everyone got busy.After the planes were refueled and bombed in the hangar, they were sent to the deck by an elevator and lined up neatly.After more than an hour of busy work, the rear decks of the various aircraft carriers have been parked with various types of aircraft.
The first thousand and 330 chapters of the fifth attack aviation
This is the main force of the Eastern Ocean Fleet of the White Eagle Country, and it is also all the mobile forces that the White Eagle Country can currently produce. If they are destroyed here, the White Eagle Country can only switch to a passive defense state on the Eastern Ocean.Halsey knew that his attack could only succeed and not fail, because his surprise attack was the prelude to a series of offensive actions. If he failed, the entire combat system of the White Eagle Kingdom would be completely passive, and there would be no turning back .
The hands of the watch quickly reached [-]:[-], and Halsey said to the air traffic control officer beside him: "It's time to start."
The air traffic control officer immediately ordered the signal light for takeoff to be played. The flight commander on the ship saw the signal light and quickly waved the green flag representing takeoff. The planes began to taxi forward slowly, and a large number of propellers turned violently on the deck. The strong wind made the clothes of the overtime workers rattle. Many people lowered their heads while holding their military caps, trying to reduce their exposure to the wind.
The first F6F Hellcat fighter left the deck and flew into the still dark sky, and then the ships began to fly.The first to take off was the group of powerful Hellcat fighter jets. They were preparing to fight against the Hualan Air Force in order to cover the entire bomber group.
The Hellcat fighter with six 12.7mm Browning machine guns has the famous R2800 double-row radial air-cooled engine of the White Eagle Country, which can provide a surging power of 2000 horsepower.Although the performance of this fighter is still inferior to Hualanguo's J-4 and Hai J-4 fighters, at least it has made a fight.But today, in order to enhance the bombing effect, these fighter jets are also fully loaded, and they all carry a 900 kg bomb under their belly.
The SBD Dreadnought dive bombers and TBF Avenger torpedo bombers took off immediately after. They also carried the largest load of ammunition, preparing to launch a surprise attack on Hualan Kingdom.
Halsey's goal is the Hualan country, but it is not the mainland of the Hualan country, but the Yokosuka military port in the Wa country.Yokosuka is located in Sagami Bay, Honshu Island, Japan. The waters of this port are open and hidden. Because there is a slow current from north to south, there is no need for dredging in the port.
The harbor has a water surface of more than 30 square kilometers and a water depth of about [-] meters. It can berth the largest warship in Hualan Kingdom. It is one of the five deep-water ports where Hualan Kingdom's Eastern Ocean Fleet is stationed.A month ago, I don't know why the Hualan Kingdom concentrated all the capital ships of the Eastern Ocean Fleet here, and it seemed that there was some big move.
According to White Eagle Nation's estimation, Hualan Nation seems to have the idea of provoking war first and attacking Guam and even Hawaii.This is also one of the keys to the White Eagle Navy's decision to launch this attack, to act first to avoid giving the opponent a greater advantage.
At this time, the Yokosuka Port was still peaceful, and the waves gently lapped against the breakwater and made a low-pitched sound.The warships were all moored in their own berths, and the naval officers and soldiers, except those on duty, slept in dormitories on the shore, where there were comfortable beds and sufficient security forces.
The Hualan Navy's defenses were very lax, and there was not even any lighting control. Not only the dock area was brightly lit, but even the main streets of East Morning City not far away were lit with street lights.
In the early morning, the lights had already been extinguished, the sky turned white, and the entire Yokosuka Naval Port also had movement again.The sailors left the barracks at the sound of the Reveille, and returned to the battleship for the flag-raising ceremony. Afterwards, they would have breakfast to rectify the housekeeping, clean and scrub the warship, which is what they usually have to do every day.
It was already September, and the days were slowly getting shorter, and it was already seven o'clock when the barracks' reveille sounded.After returning to the warship for the routine flag-raising ceremony, the sky was already bright, and the officers and soldiers disbanded their formation, talking and laughing, and walked to the cafeteria, preparing to eat their first meal of the day.
At this moment, there was a sudden chaotic sound of motors in the sky, and a group of planes appeared in the sky like a huge flock of birds covering the sky.When the white five-pointed star military emblem of the White Eagle Kingdom appeared in front of everyone, the officers and soldiers on the battleship instinctively rushed to the gun positions, knowing that it was an air strike.
When the chaotic crowd under the wings ran around, Rear Admiral Wright, who was in charge of the air command, sent a wireless telegram to the fleet that the surprise attack was successful.The command staff and generals who had been waiting in the bridge erupted into loud cheers. They congratulated each other, as if they were experiencing a great joy.The original depressing atmosphere in the bridge has disappeared, replaced by a relaxed and joyful atmosphere, but among the many smiling officers, Lieutenant General Halsey still has no smile on his face.He turned his head and asked Lieutenant General Hewitt: "The declaration of war has been issued, so there is no problem."
"No, in order to prevent the enemy from deciphering our secret code, the credentials were sent to the embassy by ferry. We spent a lot of time on this." Lieutenant General Hewitt was right. State affairs were relayed to Guam by long-range bombers in China, and then boarded a ferry to Beihua City. It took a whole week, so Hualan State's radio monitoring department did not get any news.
During the surprise attack, the entire fleet did not dock for supplies, and strict radio silence was implemented, which is why they arrived here without anyone noticing.Everything seemed to be going so smoothly, but the White Eagle government ignored one thing, whether the declaration of war could be delivered on time.In fact, the White Eagle government calculated the time too accurately. Although the air strike had to be carried out in the early morning in order for the declaration of war to be delivered on time, the actual delivery time was still too late.
Mr. Hurley, the ambassador of White Eagle to Hualan, got the declaration of war in the middle of the night. He immediately dispatched staff to meet with the duty officer of the Presidential Palace, claiming that White Eagle had an urgent credential to deliver, and hoped that Being able to prioritize their visits first.
Because Xie Mingjue usually got up at six o'clock and had breakfast at six thirty, so despite the other party's repeated requests, the meeting time was set at six forty-five.The embassy of the White Eagle State is not close to the Presidential Palace of Hualan State, it takes about an hour's drive, so they set off at 45:04 in the morning.
It's a pity that Ambassador Hurley overlooked a problem. The route they were going to take was from Beicheng to Nancheng, almost crossing the entire Beihua City.As the ancient capital of Hualan Kingdom, it has a very profound cultural heritage. In order to maintain this cultural heritage, the buildings of the entire city have retained their original appearance, and only a new Beihua City has been built on the periphery of the ancient city.
Although the new city was built, the national government agencies did not leave, and many people still lived in the old city, but went to work in the new city.The working hours in Hualanguo are relatively early, and the government starts work at 07:30, so many people go out very early.
The price of the first thousand 330 six chapters of traffic jam
Because of the wealth of the common people, there are more private cars, so the daily working hours have become traffic jams.Experienced car drivers go to work at 07:30 and go out at 05:30, because the road to work for them will be extended by at least one-half of the time.
As a lazy New Zealander, the embassy goes to work at nine o'clock, and most of the staff don't get up until 07:30. At that time, because the Hualan people have already gone to work, the traffic jam will end, so they don't know the horror of going out in the morning .
Because of his inexperience, Ambassador Hurley inevitably squeezed into the traffic even though he left at five o'clock.The first half of the journey was smooth, but when the car was halfway through, it couldn't move anymore.Because of the congestion, the cars will wait for a long time every time they pass a traffic light, and this situation will become more and more serious until the time of work.The staff of the embassy didn't know about this situation. By the time they found out that something was wrong, the car had already been caught in the traffic flow, and it was impossible to leave.
The car moved forward a little bit on the crowded road. Ambassador Hurley was sweating from anxiety, but there was nothing he could do. He knew that today's meeting would definitely be postponed.It was not until 51:[-] that Ambassador Hurley's car arrived at the presidential palace. This was the result of the driver's driving all the way after the traffic jam ended.There will certainly be more speeding fines on the road, but what worries Ambassador Hurley even more is that he is late.
When Ambassador Hurley walked into the presidential palace and came to Xie Mingjue's study, he was relieved to see that the other party still did not leave.However, his heart throbbed inexplicably, because Xie Mingjue, who was always gentle and refined on weekdays, turned pale, as if he had encountered something unbearable.
"Ambassador Hurley, I hope you can explain why the White Eagle Kingdom suddenly attacked the Hualan Navy's military port in Yokosuka more than 20 minutes ago without declaring war." As soon as Xie Mingjue's words came out, Ambassador Hurley immediately turned pale. Change.Originally he didn't know the military's action plan, but now that Xie Mingjue opened his mouth, he finally understood what an unforgivable mistake he had made.
"Sorry, Your Excellency, I was nearly an hour late due to the traffic jam. In fact, I came this time to deliver the declaration of war for you. Our government believes that the differences between the two sides are too great to maintain permanent peace. For the sake of the world and the stability of the New World, President Roosevelt had no choice but to choose war." When Ambassador Hurley said these words, he felt very awkward, but this was his responsibility, and he had to fulfill it.
"This is not important anymore. The important thing is that your country attacked our military port without declaring war, causing heavy losses to our navy. Such a despicable act will definitely be condemned by the righteous forces all over the world. I am now representing Hualan The country declares war on your country, and will eventually eliminate the evil power of the White Eagle country." Xie Mingjue's voice was so loud that Ambassador Hurley gasped, but what can he say now?He is just an ambassador, the mouthpiece of the national government, and has no right to make choices at all.
He has served as the ambassador of Hualan Country for almost four years. Ambassador Hurley has already come to the conclusion based on what he has seen and heard. And high value-added products, there is still a big gap.If the two countries meet with each other, the probability of the White Eagle Kingdom's failure is very high under the circumstances that it is difficult to widen the huge gap in the number of weapons in the army.
Seeing Xie Mingjue with a bad face, Ambassador Hurley bowed to him and said: "I have been the ambassador of Hualan Kingdom for four years, and I have been in contact with you for a long time. Now I would like to express to you in my personal capacity Express my opinion."
Taking a deep breath, Ambassador Hurley said slowly: "I think President Roosevelt's move is very unwise. This decision will put the White Eagle Country and even the whole world in a dangerous situation. This is the worst mistake he has made since he entered politics. I’m going to leave tomorrow, but I hope I’m still a friend of Hualan.” After speaking, he put on his gloves and hat, and left without looking back.
While Ambassador Hurley was stuck in traffic, the battle in Yokosuka Port was going on fiercely.Because the intelligence system didn't get the news, the navy fleet was unprepared. As a result, when the enemy plane was in the air, it realized that it was under an air attack.
The situation should not be so serious, because there is a radar station of the Hualan Navy on the top of the nearby mountain.However, in order to avoid the possible night cruise aircraft of the Hualan Kingdom, the White Eagle Kingdom's carrier-based air force took an ultra-low altitude approach to break into the coastline, but the result was that it accidentally hit and evaded the radar, and the Hualan Navy lost its last hope. Early warning opportunity.
Despite the unfavorable situation, all the officers and soldiers on the seven Zhongchuan-class battleships and three Zhongyuan-class aircraft carriers anchored in the port still stood firm. They used the anti-aircraft guns of various calibers installed on the ships to shoot desperately at the air, hoping to prevent the White Eagle Kingdom from carrying plane bombing.
The six Avenger torpedo planes first lowered their altitude to less than five meters and rushed towards the berth.Seeing the menacing White Eagle torpedo planes approaching, the Hualan artillery on the side turned their muzzles and fired violently with dense anti-aircraft guns.According to Zhao Shouhong's request, starting from the Zhongchuan-class battleship, all warships attach great importance to air defense. The dense anti-aircraft guns on the ship are enough to form a dense fire net that makes the enemy pilots extremely headache. Enough price.
When the torpedo plane squadron approached the distance of 400 meters to throw the torpedo, there were only two planes left.The other four were either beaten to the surface of the sea, or exploded in the air, and the pilots basically could not be saved.But at this distance, the Avenger torpedo planes of the White Eagle Kingdom have already entered the attack range.Two MK13 torpedoes fell into the water with a puff, and then the steam gas engine on the torpedo suddenly turned, dragging the torpedo and rushing towards the battleship Jinan at an extremely fast speed.
Although it is much less advanced than Hualan's Red Sakura Type 1 oxygen torpedo, the MK13 can also reach a speed of 27 knots.With such a fast sailing speed, it is impossible to intercept within a short distance of 400 meters.With a loud noise, the starboard side of the battleship Jinan, which was unable to maneuver, was hit by a torpedo.The charged MK13 torpedo severely tore a big hole in the thick side armor. Fortunately, the damage control personnel closed the hatch of the watertight compartment in time, so that no catastrophe was caused.But even so, the Jinan, which was submerged with seven or eight cabins, began to tilt slightly. In order to allow the anti-aircraft guns to defend at an angle, the captain had to order the other side to be filled with water to balance.
The first thousand and 330 chapters and seven forcibly take off
The situation of the other battleships was similar to that of the Jinan, because all the battleships were in their berths in a hurry, and had not yet been fired, so the hull could not maneuver at all.The seven battleships became living targets, suffering wave after wave of torpedo attacks.Fortunately, only torpedo planes attacked them, which kept the anti-aircraft gunners on the battleship from being in a hurry.
Is there only Avenger torpedo attack aircraft in the White Eagle Army's carrier-based aircraft?Of course not, half of the attack fleet is a Dreadnought dive bomber with a White cyclone engine.These dive bombers, which are enough to carry [-] kilograms of bombs, don't care about attacking the warships in the port at this time.There are four field airfields around the Yokosuka Naval Port. They belong to Liu Wenhui's Japan Garrison Air Force and exist as a force to cover the port and seize air supremacy.
There are more than [-] fighter jets and bombers parked on these four field airfields. Although these planes are all old models eliminated by the Hualan Kingdom, they can be considered first-class good planes for other countries.The White Eagle Air Force had a clear division of labor, and the dive bombers ignored the situation in the port and flew straight to the four airports.
Because there was no preparation in advance, except for the combat duty personnel, everyone else was on vacation.Because the early warning time was too short, the Air Force had not yet received news of the attack. It was not until the radar found that the sky was covered with planes that the Air Force felt bad, but it was already too late.As the squadron leader on duty, Gu Qiuming has been sitting in the cockpit. This is his old temper on duty, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.
Seeing the enemy plane approaching the sky, Gu Qiuming pushed the canopy and immediately started the plane.His wingman, Qiao Rui, was also sitting in the cockpit, and the plane was fully fueled and bombed, which saved a lot of time.The two fighter jets accelerated taxiing on the runway, hoping to take off to meet them as soon as possible.
A dreadnought dive bomber took the initiative to push up, and it swooped down with the sound of the wind, and rushed straight to the runway.When the bomber raised its nose again, a black bomb fell from the sky and blew a big hole in the middle of the runway, making it difficult for the plane to take off.
Seeing this scene, Gu Qiuming showed no fear. He put the accelerator on the head and rushed towards the big pit.The wingman pilot behind, Qiao Rui, also followed the lead plane with determination, accelerating and rushing forward.There was a commotion among the logistics soldiers hiding behind the wall. They watched Gu Qiuming driving the plane faster and faster, and they were about to rush into the big pit.
Less than three meters away from the big crater, the not-so-large wheels of the J-[-] fighter jet driven by Gu Qiuming finally left the ground, and quickly rose into the air by rubbing against the edge of the huge crater.Immediately afterwards, Qiao Rui also left the ground, and followed the lead plane into the blue sky.Seeing our own fighter jets take off so thrillingly, the logistics soldiers burst into cheers.
"Boss, what shall we do?" Qiao Rui, who had ascended into the air, asked on the radio. It seems that only the two of them are fighting in the air in a short period of time, and they must be outnumbered.
Gu Qiuming sneered and said, "A group of novices also want to compete with us to let them know how good we are." After finishing speaking, he snapped the joystick and drove the plane towards the large group of Hellcat fighter jets.Gu Qiuming really wanted to shoot down those attack planes, but he knew very well that once he did that, the two of them would be quickly shot down by the opposing fighter jets.The most sensible thing to do now is to entangle the opponent's fighter jets, weaken the opponent's escort force, and wait for the follow-up reinforcements to arrive.
In addition, those attack planes fly at extremely low altitudes, and the anti-aircraft guns of their own bases are used to deal with them. If two fighter jets go to low altitude, it is easy for their own anti-aircraft guns to throw rats and it is difficult to play a role.Based on this consideration, Gu Qiuming and his wingman Qiao Rui rushed towards the large group of White Eagle fighter jets without hesitation.
The fighters had not yet dropped their under-fuselage bombs because the attack planes attacked first, occupying a favorable attacking position.The anti-aircraft firepower on the ground is too fierce. If the density of attacking aircraft is high, the maneuvering range will become smaller and they will be shot down easily. Therefore, air strikes can only be carried out in batches.What's more, fighter jets need to occupy a high altitude to serve as a battle alert to prevent Hualan Air Force's fighter jets from taking off into the air to fight, so they hovered at high altitude for a long time and did not launch a ground attack.
When they saw two J-[-] fighter jets coming into the sky, many White Eagle fighter pilots who had already had itchy hands rushed towards them, whistling.
Facing the oncoming numerous fighter jets from the White Eagle Kingdom, Gu Qiuming and Qiao Rui were fearless in the face of danger.As a fighter jet designed and manufactured by Hualan Kingdom in the 20s, the J-[-] fighter jet is obviously lagging behind, but as a member of the Japanese garrison army, Gu Qiuming and others are all retired old pilots.Their operational skills and combat literacy are enough to make up for the lack of weapons, making the fighters of the White Eagle Kingdom beyond redemption.
Both of them knew the advantages and disadvantages of this aircraft in their hands. He had been dealing with this aircraft for more than ten years, so he didn't know how to use it.When two J-[-] fighter jets and more than twenty Hellcat fighter jets were about to merge together, Gu Qiuming suddenly made a continuous small-radius turn in front of the formation, and circled to the rear of the enemy.
Although the maximum speed of the J-[-] fighter jet is not as good as that of the opponent, its turning flexibility is far superior. Gu Qiuming took advantage of this feature and made a sudden turn before the formation, and immediately took the initiative.The group of fledgling young men in the White Eagle Kingdom underestimated the ever-changing air combat, and they operated it in an orderly manner with the flying movements they learned in the academy.
