Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 686 The Sunken Realm

The time is 9 minutes before twelve o'clock; the sea area is on the East China Sea [-] nautical miles south of Matsu Island. In the captain's room of the heavy cruiser "Mogami", in front of the porthole on the left side of the "Akagi", Mitsumasa Minai, supported by Narumi Inoue, stared dumbfounded at the "Akagi" and "Flying Dragon". The inclination and the complexion on his face were as if he had just undergone a major operation.

On the deck of the "Mogami", Admiral Nagakusugi Masahiro shouted angrily, "Hurry up, save people! Deputy Commander Yamamoto is still on board!"

"Take emergency equipment and see if there is a way to seal the loophole!"

"Bage, what are you doing?"

……

Amidst his yelling, on the deck of the "Mogami" that was still smoking everywhere, soldiers in sailor uniforms were running around like ants on a hot pot.

Just when Narumi Inoue was worried about whether to find a military doctor to come over and give the Commander a good look, Mitsumasa Minai finally had a trace of anger in his eyes, and he asked weakly, "The 'Akagi' is going to sink?"

Narumi Inoue lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "Yes."

"The 'Akagi' is the flagship of our United Fleet?!"

"Yes."

"Inoue, have I lost my mind?"

Narumi Inoue exclaimed: "Your Excellency?!"

Minei Guangzheng broke free from his hand, stepped forward a little unsteadily to support the porthole, and said lightly: "I will spend the rest of my life in prison, right?" Suddenly, he remembered something, and changed his expression and Turning around and staring at Narumi Inoue anxiously, she asked anxiously, "Where's Yamamoto-kun? Hurry up and save him."

"Your Excellency, I have sent people there, but Yamamoto-kun said that as the captain of the 'Akagi', he should be with the ship—"

"—Bage, this bastard, does he want to give up? Is his ability just enough to serve as the captain of the 'Akagi'? Inoue, let's go, I'll pick him up myself!"

Under the leadership of Tie Linfei, the last batch of fighter planes of the Xuebing Army that carried out the "Sink It" air strike returned.In this campaign, they sank two aircraft carriers, one heavy cruiser, and one light cruiser of the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, severely damaged two aircraft carriers, and many other ships of various types.However, no matter whether it was Tielin Fei or other pilots and fighters, on the way back, everyone did not feel the slightest sense of joy.

Compared with the losses of the Japanese army, the Xuebing Army only lost dozens of fighter planes. In terms of the ratio of battle losses alone, they made a lot of money.Tie Linfei once thought of the Japanese plane returning from Wuyishan, and suddenly found that there was no aircraft carrier to land on, so he couldn't help showing a smile on his face.However, when he looked back, he suddenly found that the Japanese fleet, which he regarded as the enemy and had to hastily launch the final attack, suddenly fell several kilometers away from the United Fleet, his face was not so good. .

I still lack actual combat command experience, why didn't I figure it out, these Japanese planes have gone through such a long voyage, and there is not much fuel left?Isn't the biggest flaw of the Type [-] shipboard attack aircraft its poor ability to stay in the air?Damn it, I didn't even think of this - if I hadn't issued an order for a quick fight and adopted a steady and steady tactic, Zhang Zhiyuan and the others wouldn't have easily chosen that extreme attack method, right?

The scene of the L-19 driven by Zhang Zhiyuan before it collided with the "Feilong" was played back in his mind. Tie Linfei didn't feel any abnormality in it, and he took it for granted that it was Zhang Zhiyuan's choice that caused such a situation tragedy.

L-19 is the lifeblood of the commander-in-chief. Although an aircraft carrier was sunk this time, the cost was huge. This battle cannot be regarded as a complete victory——

The "Akagi" aircraft carrier had a displacement of 29500 tons when it was first built. After two modifications, the displacement exceeded 40000 tons, which can be regarded as a giant at sea.Therefore, although three large holes were opened in the hull on the left side, its sinking speed was extremely slow, which ensured that Mitsumasa Minai and others could find Yamamoto 56 before it sank.

Yamamoto 56 was ready to die on the ship, his clothes were straightened up, and his appearance was correct. At this time, he was sitting quietly cross-legged on a deck that was not burned.Seeing Minai Mitsumasa climbed onto the ship with the support of Inoue Narumi, he was shocked immediately, got up and shouted: "Your Excellency, Commander, this place is dangerous!" He blamed Inoue and said: "Inoue-kun, in this situation, how can you Let the commander come up?!"

"I insisted on coming here myself! Yamamoto-kun, I admire your courage to die on the ship, but I don't agree with your behavior. Don't you think you are evading responsibility by doing this?"

"Your Excellency?!" In front of Minai, Yamamoto was very humble, quickly lowered his head, and stood respectfully.

"Yamamoto-kun, we have lost this battle, but the United Fleet is not over! You know the significance of the 'Akagi' to the United Fleet, and I know it too, but because of the destruction of the 'Akagi', the United Fleet can be disbanded." Fleet?"

"What? Your Excellency, you want to disband the United Fleet?"

"Of course I don't have this power, but if you insist on dying, I don't mind letting those people from the Army Ministry succeed."

"Your Mightiness?!"

Minei Mitsumasa waved his hand, and said with a little desolation: "You, the captain, were appointed temporarily by me. If someone had to die on the ship, that person would be me. This failure is a great shame for our Ministry of the Navy. It may affect the status of the Ministry of the Navy in the eyes of the military and in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor. But should we give up? Our country is surrounded by coasts. If we want to develop, we can only go out of the ocean. Therefore, having a modern and powerful navy is a must for a rich country and a strong people. Let’s go. Yamamoto-kun, I’m getting old. The reason why I’ve caused such a big loss to the Combined Fleet this time is because of my mistakes in decision-making. Yamamoto-kun, listen to me—you and Inoue-kun are still young , the future of the Naval Ministry will belong to you. We are called the Iron Triangle of the Naval Ministry. It can be said that the development of the Imperial Navy to the scale it is today is inseparable from our efforts. Why? You are willing to watch Did it become a supporting role of the Ministry of Army because of this defeat?... Yamamoto-kun, do you know? You are the next commander of the combined fleet that I am looking at!"

"Your Excellency, I, I was wrong!"

"Okay, let's go! Go to the 'Mogami', let's salute together, and send the 'Akagi' the last journey!"

"Hay!"

Time, 46:[-] p.m.; location, Changbaishan Airport.

When the LZ-I driven by Tielin Fei came to a complete stop at the airport, Ouyang Yun immediately led a group of people from the Air Force Headquarters to meet the still dust on the airport.

The gangway was erected, the cabin door of the driver's cab was opened, and a haggard Tie Linfei appeared at the cabin door. Seeing Ouyang Yun, he stood at attention, solemnly performed a military salute, and shouted: "Commander-in-Chief!"

Ouyang Yun returned the salute, walked to the bottom of the gangway with a smile, looked up at him and said with a smile: "My Iron Commander has won a big victory, why is he still looking so sad? There are two aircraft carriers, and the 'Chicheng', that is So what if we lost an L-19? We made a fortune!"

"Commander-in-Chief—" Tie Linfei smiled wryly and hesitated to speak. He turned around and climbed down slowly. As soon as his feet landed, Ouyang Yun grabbed his shoulders with both hands and turned around.

Ouyang Yun was really happy.The knowledge accumulated in that time and space made him more aware of the power of the Little Devils United Fleet than anyone present.Regardless of how confident he was when he decided to implement the "sink it" combat plan and mobilized before the battle, in fact, until the first batch of returning fighters landed and learned the specific battle situation from the pilots, he didn't Dare to conclude that this operation will be successful.His most optimistic estimate was that one-third of the combat planes could return home this time, and two of the aircraft carriers could be severely damaged, making them unable to go to sea for half a year. "Sink it" is considered to be achieved!
The United Fleet that successfully attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States, the "Akagi", a super aircraft carrier with a maximum aircraft capacity of 91 aircraft!What a powerful existence?Can you really be sunk by yourself?

It wasn't until he got in touch with Tielin Fei in the navigation tower, and until he personally admitted, that Ouyang Yun dared to believe that it turned out that the aircraft carrier of the United Fleet was actually sunk, not just the "Chicheng", but also the aircraft carrier of the United Fleet. On another ship!Moreover, this time, the fighter planes participating in this operation, contrary to his prediction, only lost one-third, which made him ecstatic.

He already knew a little about the entire air raid process from the pilots who landed in the previous batches.Hearing Yu Jian's plane crashing into the flight deck of the "Chicheng", he gritted his teeth and praised: "Good job!" Hearing that someone did this again later, and even regarded it as a tactic, his feeling was astonishing. However, until he met Tielin Fei, learned about the entire air strike process, and learned that the fall of the "Feilong" was directly related to Zhang Zhiyuan's reckless collision, he didn't think too much about it. He was just proud of these fighters. be proud.Because these people are all his soldiers, they really dared to fight with their lives in order to drive away the little devil.

At this time, he hadn't realized what "bad" impact Yu Jian's collision would have on the Xue Bingjun Air Force.

Welcoming Tielin Fei off the plane and on the way back to the Air Force Command, he thought that his low mood had a direct relationship with Yu Jian and the others, so he enlightened Tie Linfei in this way: "Lin Fei, the matter of Yu Jian and Zhang Zhiyuan, I will We already know it. This shows that our cadet army has never lacked national soldiers who dare to sacrifice their lives for the country! They are the pride and pride of our cadet army! They are soldiers brought out by you, and you should also be proud and proud of them. Proud! Lin Fei! You have created a miracle! I dare to say that your feat today will be unprecedented, and your name, Yu Jian’s and the others’ names will also go down in history because of this battle—”

"Commander! I know that they choose to do this without any regrets, but I just need to think that if I have more actual combat experience, if I don't issue that damned quick-fix order, maybe they won't." They will die. Commander, I killed them!" Tie Linfei said, tears streaming down his eyes.

And it wasn't until he said these words that Ouyang Yun understood why he lost his composure.Comparing him subconsciously in my heart, I immediately feel ashamed.That's right, the "sink it" operation this time has indeed achieved brilliant results. Compared with the results achieved, the air force's loss is almost negligible, but, because of this, can you be ecstatic?If I make the work a little more detailed, will the loss be smaller...

Tie Linfei didn't expect that the commander-in-chief would think deeply because of his apology to Zhang Zhiyuan and others, thus raising the latter's realm to another level——

This is something later.
