    Chapter 341 Torpedo Machine

    The battle gradually continued for about twenty minutes, and planes could be seen falling after being hit by bullets almost every few seconds. The hearts of all pilots and personnel on the US warships were hung high in the sky, and they expressed their thoughts with trembling hearts.  Watching the most brutal fight in history in the sky, savoring a wonderful and exciting air battle since the birth of fighter jets.

    Everyone's hearts were almost frozen in this cruel sea and sky. Even the color of the sky gradually became blood red, blinding people's eyes and giving people a sense of suffocation that they could not breathe.

    The four Zhenguo Army bomber squadrons of the first wave were quickly retreating to the rear after completing their bombing missions. However, the six US torpedo aircraft squadrons, with only six fighter jets to escort them, rushed towards the South China Sea Fleet desperately, half  Hours later, the returning bomber formation gradually relied on its speed advantage to catch up to the front and gradually approached the fleet. In this way, the defensive power of the South China Sea Fleet would be greatly enhanced.

    The U.S. torpedo plane formation guided their surface ships while flying forward. Most of the combat ships of the Atlantic Fleet began to leave the group, and their course changed from north to south to east to west, heading towards the South China Sea Fleet.

    The position of the South China Sea Fleet detected by the US military through reconnaissance ships was also information half an hour ago. At this time, they could only rely on the general direction to fly over. At the same time, the surface ships tried to expand the area covered by the formation to intercept it as much as possible.  In the South China Sea Fleet's waterway, block the opponent's way.

    Zuo Yunfeng was piloting the No. 1 fighter jet to inspect the damage caused by the sea and air battles. His position was relatively far back, with several wingmen protecting him to avoid emergencies.

    Looking around, the U.S. military's artillery is still very fierce, and the Zhenguo Army bombers are also frequently avoiding the obstruction of U.S. military aircraft, firing torpedoes into the sea and dropping bombs on the U.S. aircraft carrier.

    The U.S. military aircraft deliberately chose to conduct air combat over five aircraft carriers, covering the entire sky densely. The H-2 aircraft had to take great risks to drop bombs and shuttle through the dense array of U.S. anti-aircraft guns and aircraft bullets.  , the space in the sky for them to maneuver is also very limited.

    With a huge buzzing sound, an H-2 bomber wandered and avoided for a while, and finally found a gap in the air attack. Seeing that there were no US aircraft following around, he dived in front of the deck of the USS Los Angeles without hesitation.  passed.

    "Coming, coming." The American soldier shouted with trembling hands and shouted for more than half an hour. His throat seemed a bit hoarse and dry.

    The US gunner hurriedly adjusted the muzzle position and fired several rounds at the bomber roaring in the sky. The shells flew past the side of the H-2 aircraft. The pilot of the H-2 aircraft took a slight arc and escaped.  Entering the shell-dense area, they maneuvered downwards, and the huge shadow immediately covered the eyes of the US gunners. After the last few shells were fired, they watched the aircraft sprint forward and at the same time, three missiles fell in succession.  The whole action of firing a 100 kilogram shell was done in one go, which made them marvel at the good performance of the Zhenguo Army aircraft and the good control ability of the pilots.

    This time the H-2 aircraft had better luck in dropping bombs. After three huge roars, all three shells exploded on the deck of the USS Los Angeles.

    The huge impact caused by the explosion shook the aircraft carrier slightly, and a large hole with a diameter of three meters appeared on the deck, which directly penetrated this deck.

    Two shells hit the superstructure of the aircraft carrier. After two bangs, debris scattered all over the floor. One turret tilted to one side, and next to it lay the bleeding bodies of several US artillerymen. In another dispatch room  It was a mess, the shell was blown open, and several American soldiers were lying on the ground groaning in pain under the thick black smoke.

    This is the ninth time that the Los Angeles has been hit. Six shells and three torpedoes have not stopped it from moving forward. It is still sailing eastward.

    "No. 13, left" A J-2 aircraft roared past, and another US fighter jet suddenly appeared on his left. His teammates' reminder made his heart tremble suddenly, and he quickly turned his head to look to the left.  In the sky, the bloodthirsty eyes of the US Dark Horse fighter pilot were only about fifty meters away from him, and the muzzle of the gun was already pointed at his seat.

    The J-2 fighter pilot's pupils suddenly shrank. In panic, he quickly pulled the control lever and made a climbing movement. Several rounds of bullets narrowly missed the belly of his aircraft, directly facing him under the cockpit.  Not far away, it was clear that US military pilots had locked onto the cockpit of the Zhenguo Army pilot.

    "What a risk." Pilot No. 13's heart beat rapidly. This was already his second time.??When encountering this situation, it was the first time that he made his own judgment, but this time he was looking at a target on the right and did not see the situation on the left at all. The thrill once again made his heartstrings tense.  Tighter.

    "Thank you, old comrade." No. 13 expressed his gratitude to the pilot of No. 25 plane who saved his life.

    This kind of thrilling battle scenes are carried out frequently in this airspace. Everyone's nerves are in a state of high tension. Some pilots are sweating profusely, and some are so nervous that their hands are shaking.

    As the number of aircraft slowly decreased, the battle in this airspace became gradually clearer. More of the aircraft whizzing by were aircraft of the Zhenguo Army. There were fewer and fewer US military aircraft left, with only various types of aircraft remaining.  There were more than twenty aircraft, some of which were still smoking and continuing to fight, while others were hit in many places and were crumbling.

    The Zhenguo Army also paid a huge price. There were only twelve J-2 aircraft left. The bombers suffered smaller losses, but they also lost more than a squadron of aircraft. Only nearly forty aircraft were still hovering in the sky.

    Very few remaining aircraft are intact. Most have bullet holes and other damage on their fuselages, but they can still continue to fight.

    Ten disabled J-II aircraft continued to rush towards the remaining US aircraft, shuttling back and forth. However, the US aircraft had basically lost the initiative and could only be beaten passively. The remaining H-2 aircraft also began to drop themselves.  There were remaining shells and torpedoes, but their ammunition was basically exhausted and they were ready to retreat.

    Among the five U.S. aircraft carriers, the USS Washington and the USS Los Angeles were hit more than ten times and suffered the most serious damage. The deck of the USS Los Angeles is almost no longer usable, and the USS Washington has water inside. The US military is still struggling to drain water and repair it.

    The remaining three aircraft carriers were all damaged to varying degrees, but they still had a certain degree of combat capability. However, almost all the fighter planes on the carrier deck were scrapped, and the remaining few intact fighter planes were scattered in a mess, unable to take off at all.

    "Bomber formation, collect the formation and return home." Zuo Yunfeng saw that the time was almost up. As the supreme air commander of this operation, he issued the return order.

    However, not a single US aircraft carrier was sunk, which made him feel a little disappointed. The battle plan previously formulated was to sink or severely damage one or two US aircraft carriers, but at this time, no US aircraft carriers were seen sinking.  Or a sign of losing power, they were still moving forward under the protection of destroyers.

    There are only ten Zhenguo Army fighter jets left at this time. Including the fighter jets performing defensive missions in the fleet, there are only about twenty. Some of them have been disabled. The air combat mission has basically ended. Next, they will mainly rely on bombers to carry out the second mission.  Round and third round, and even more air strikes to achieve the purpose of destroying the Adel fleet.

    About forty bombers began to leave the airspace one after another. After the last US fighter jet was chased to the rear and shot down by a J-2 fighter, the remaining seven J-2 aircraft began to return with the team with numerous scars. Among them were  Two planes were flown by Zuo Yunfeng and Luo Zhigang.

    At the last moment, only Zuo Yunfeng was left in the formation to command the battle. Luo Zhigang's plane also entered the battle as an ordinary fighter. After being hit by the US military more than a dozen times, his plane only damaged some unimportant items.  The fatal area had not been damaged, and Luo Zhigang was lucky to survive, otherwise the Zhenguo Army would have lost an experienced and outstanding pilot.

    Adel saw off the remaining Zhenguo Army flying formations with sad eyes. The wreckage of US military aircraft floating on the sea shocked him. The battle ended with the Zhenguo Army's victory. The huge gap in training and equipment technology made  The U.S. Air Force failed to withstand the test of history and was completely wiped out.

    In another area of ????the sea, the South China Sea Fleet has been warned of a sneak attack by US military aircraft, and they are ready to face the remaining torpedo aircraft of the US military.

    In order to catch up with the Edel fleet as much as possible, the South China Sea Fleet also risked exposing its target and chose the shortest route to catch up. This would make it easier for the US military to judge their position. This is also unacceptable and should be let go.  The Edel fleet's return to the mainland of the United States will lose the significance of this battle. The subsequent landing battle in Hawaii may be abandoned and directly return to the mainland of China. The results of this war will be greatly weakened. After one battle, it can  The strategic plan to completely subdue the U.S. Navy has also come to nothing, and the plan to prevent the U.S. military from intervening in Europe has also been stranded. The impact will be huge.

    Therefore, this battle is also crucial to the entire war situation. If the Adel fleet can be completely wiped out, the Zhenguo Army's navy will be able to ensure its absolute superiority over the US military. After the Zhenguo Army lands in Hawaii, it can use Hawaii as a springboard.  Then capture the Panama Canal Basin and control this important canal, allowing the Zhenguan Army's naval power to penetrate into the Atlantic area and connect with the German Navy.??One piece.

    Then the German navy can gradually go out of the port, get rid of the British army's blockade of its port, cooperate with the Zhenguo army navy to fight the British army in the Atlantic area, change the dominance of the Allied navy in the Atlantic area, gain control of the sea on both sides of the Atlantic, and then use  The aircraft carrier fleet gained air superiority in the Atlantic region and along the coast, carried out air strikes on the inland areas of the Allied Powers, and cooperated with the German ground offensive on the European continent to speed up the end of the war, forcing the Allied Powers to give up and surrender after exhaustion.

    On the other hand, if the strength of the U.S. Navy still exists, it will be difficult for the Chinese Navy to break through the Panama Canal, a waterway connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and enter the Atlantic Ocean to deter the industrial base and military industrial area in the northeastern United States, making the United States dare not act.  Get out of this world war.

    Taking into account the national power of the United States, it is unlikely that China will completely defeat the United States and then concentrate its forces on a military strike on the European continent. It can only achieve its goal by making the United States unable to fight again after the failure of local wars and voluntarily withdrawing from the war.  There is no need for an all-out war with the United States.

    To make the United States submissive, the Chinese navy must enter the Atlantic region and threaten the U.S. coastal industrial corridor with its aircraft carrier fleet. This will put the U.S. shipbuilding industry and other military production under the threat of the Chinese navy at all times. Only in this way will the United States consider the results of its own economic construction.  The achievements of military and industrial development will not be destroyed in one day, and we will consider compromising with China and withdrawing from the war.

    As long as the Edel fleet is defeated in this battle, the possibility of compromising the United States will greatly increase. This is also the most important combat goal of the Zhenguo Navy in the near future.

    To achieve this goal, the South China Sea Fleet must clear the obstacles ahead as soon as possible, get close to the Edel fleet, and conduct second and third wave air attacks on it until most of their aircraft carriers are sunk.

    At this time, only six of the eight Zhenguo Army reconnaissance aircraft were left. Two aircraft encountered US military aircraft during their cruise. After they shot down several US military aircraft, they were surrounded and destroyed due to being outnumbered. The remaining six aircraft were protected by the formation.  The next one survived.

    At this time, two reconnaissance planes stayed in the waters near Edel's fleet to monitor it for a long time at any time. Edel naturally knew that he was being followed. He had no intention of escaping by hiding. The fleet's route was straight and straight.  There was no intention of avoiding it.

    In addition, the reconnaissance aircraft sent by Zuo Yunfeng to track the US torpedo aircraft formation gradually found the location of the US torpedo aircraft formation after launching a large-scale search.

    The South China Sea Fleet aircraft carrier-based fighter jets had already set off when the US aircraft was about 300 kilometers away from them, preparing to intercept the US torpedo aircraft on the way. However, the report sent back by the reconnaissance aircraft showed that the US aircraft suddenly divided into six groups, and each squadron left.  Different directions will cause certain difficulties for the Zhenguo Army fighter jets to intercept. Firstly, it will be difficult to figure out the specific location of the US military aircraft. Secondly, it will be difficult to divide the troops to destroy them.

    Therefore, after the first wave of bombers return to the team, even the maintenance time will be shortened a lot. As long as the aircraft can still perform combat missions, they must take off again. This is to avoid being destroyed on the aircraft carrier, and secondly, it can make up for the shortcomings of fighter jets and participate in air battles.  After all, the US military is not coming with fighter jets, but with torpedo aircraft. The aircraft of the South China Sea Fleet still have great advantages.

    In order to protect the aircraft carrier, three J-2 aircraft remained in the airspace around the aircraft carrier, and the remaining seven fighter jets were dispersed to several airspaces to perform interception missions. However, it may be difficult to defeat ten with one enemy, and it must have the cooperation of bombers, and  The bomber formation slowly landed on the four aircraft carriers after flying for nearly an hour. After more than ten minutes of refueling, ammunition replenishment and simple maintenance, they immediately took off again to perform the interception mission.

    Six U.S. torpedo squadrons, with twelve aircraft in each squadron, were divided into six directions and rushed towards the South China Sea Fleet. The positions of three squadrons have been found, and three squadrons have lost their targets. They may have circled to the northwest or  An attack was carried out in the northeast, and the anti-aircraft artillery unit of the South China Sea Fleet entered a state of emergency combat readiness for the first time. This was also the first time that the Zhenguo Army aircraft carrier encountered a threat from the air. Although this threat was not powerful enough, it was very uncomfortable to be bitten by a few bugs.  Yes, if it is serious, it is possible to be infected and die, so the South China Sea Fleet does not underestimate the enemy and is still prepared.

    The rapid-fire cannons equipped on the ships of the South China Sea Fleet can fire between 70 and 150 rounds per minute, which is more than ten times higher than the U.S. anti-aircraft gun's firing speed of less than ten rounds per minute. The combat capability is naturally much higher.  Times, under such strong protection, it is unrealistic for the US military to achieve much by relying on torpedo planes alone.

    Li Guoqiang and Huang Shusheng are still taking command on the Poseidon command ship. The results of the first attack on the South China Sea Fleet have been reported back. The news that not a single US aircraft carrier was sunk also made Li Guoqiang a little bit interested.In addition, after all, the US military aircraft carrier has also suffered a lot of damage. If it can make up for it with a few more shots, there will still be a chance.

    "Received on the 016th"

    "Returning"

    The communication soldiers surrounding the long table in the command room are using communication equipment to communicate with the dispatched combat aircraft, and the specific locations of each unit are basically clear.

    "It was discovered that a U.S. military fleet was heading towards our military, heading towards nine o'clock, a hundred nautical miles away, with about fifty ships." The communications force quickly received the latest reconnaissance report from the front.

    "Atlantic Fleet?" After Li Guoqiang received the message, he immediately frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice.

    Huang Shusheng sat on his chair and moved slightly, turned to look at Li Guoqiang, his eyes flickered, and he said: "The US military is a desperate style of play. It sends torpedo planes from the sky and a fleet without aircraft carrier protection from the ground.  , this is sending f¨¦ir¨°u into our mouths, the purpose is probably not to attack our aircraft carrier, right?"

    "Yes, the US military is not an ordinary dog ??jumping over the wall. There is no need to joke about the lives of its own soldiers. Their purpose should be to tie our hands and feet, and then allow the aircraft carrier of the Edel fleet to escape smoothly." Li Guoqiang nodded after thinking for a while.  said in a deep voice.

    "The U.S. military can only make this plan so far. If some ships are not sacrificed, the chance of their aircraft carriers escaping back is very small. I estimate that there should be submarines hidden among these ships, and we cannot just ignore them.  ." Huang Shusheng continued his analysis.

    "In this way, our sailing speed must be reduced. Does this really give the US aircraft carrier time to escape?" Li Guoqiang began to look a little worried, thinking that if the US aircraft carrier escaped, it would be the worst result.
