Chapter 2778: wait

In the Japanese view, when their bomber squadron arrives on the battlefield, it means that victory is already beckoning them. Under the attack of at least 50 twin-engine bombers, the US fleet without aircraft carriers to provide aviation cover will inevitably be in chaos. , And once the formation of the American fleet, which is inferior on the regular battle line, is broken, it will undoubtedly be a group of bison fleeing for the Japanese combined fleet that is waiting for it, and then be caught and killed by the lions one by one!

"We have waited too long for this moment, and now, we can finally use the blood of the Americans to wash away our shame in the battle between Taragen Island and the previous aircraft carrier!" Shige Taro Yoshimatsu also grew up. Tone, in his opinion, the situation is now stable!

　　 But even though it has a huge advantage, the Japanese fleet is still careless. Before the general offensive was launched, the Japanese were still perfecting their plans, and considered the desperate blow of the US fleet.

"This situation is similar to the situation before the main force of the German High Seas Fleet attacked Admiral Jericho's fleet during the battle in the Norwegian Sea. During the battle, the German fleet took advantage of the suddenness and high burst of damage. Defeat the opponent in one go. It's just that we and the Americans are now in the fighting situation." Betty said.

　　 "Then how do you think the Americans will save their fleet?" asked Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu.

"Destroyers, they can only rely on destroyers. They force us to retreat through a large number of destroyers' decisive charge and torpedo attacks, and then the capital ships abruptly survived the bombers. The number of their destroyers is estimated to be more than twice ours. To be honest, this number of destroyers is very threatening. It is even more threatening than battleships, because under the attack of bombers, it is too difficult for battleships to stably exert the power of their main guns, and our previous battles have obviously weakened them." Betty said.

"So you mean, if their destroyer launches an assault, we should focus on the destroyer first? If we evade first, will it work?" Shimamura asked, telling the truth. Looking at the 50 US Navy destroyers, the Japanese are I'm really worried about them coming over!

　　 "No, Nagato and Fuso can naturally retreat, but what do you want the four battleships behind to do? Throw them all away?" said Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu. In the previous battle, the Japanese fleet also paid a price. The new ships ahead were fine, but the situation of Ibuki and Hiei was very bad. Although the Ibuki, Hiei and the two dreadnoughts are very old, they are still very important battle resources for the Japanese fleet, which lacks capital ships. If the advanced battleships run all the way, the Americans will rely on it. A destroyer with more than 4 dozens can also kill all the 4 damaged warships behind!

"Yes, we can't evacuate, so before we reap the final fruits of victory, we still have to do one thing, and that is to prevent the Americans from dying. This blow may be very tough. We must devote all of our efforts. The firepower of destroyers and capital ships. The American destroyer assault has become a dead end without return!" Betty said.

In the last ten minutes, the Japanese were not idle either. They re-adjusted the power state and engagement distance of the warships, and began to slowly approach their opponents, and a large number of destroyers also rushed out of the gap between the fleet and distributed in the two main fleets. between.

　　 On the opposite side, the Americans also moved. The destroyer squadron, which was nearly twice as large as the Japanese, began to enter the warring side. On the sea, the American destroyer squadron resembled a school of sharks, which made the Japanese feel tremendous pressure.

"Before the final battle, there was an atmosphere of joy in the fleet. We have 13 battleships. Most of our battleships are better than American ships. We think we will win, although we know that the Americans There may be more destroyers, but we don’t have a specific concept of this number. But when the two sides showed all the lineups on the battlefield, looking at the large number of destroyers in front of the US fleet, I admit that I was scared at that moment. At the forefront are the large destroyers, which are the so-called leader destroyers of the Germans. According to estimates, they have at least 12 large destroyers over 2,000 tons. These warships have a firepower comparable to weaker light cruisers. We are all waiting. Now, waiting for the other side to launch a fatal blow, we will use our lives and flesh and blood to stop the Americans from fighting to the death." A Japanese naval officer who participated in the war wrote in the diary, but this diary also There is no more text, because this officer did not survive this battle!

　　 "The Japanese bomber is coming!" An officer reported to Sims.

"Order all seaplanes to take off and prepare to intercept the Japanese bombers. Pay special attention to the torpedo planes that break through at low altitude. They are the biggest threat. At the same time, send a telegram to General Logan, hoping that his Zeppelin can provide it at the last minute. Valuable help~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Sims said.

　　 When the reconnaissance plane in the distance found that the Japanese bomber was in place, the aircraft carrier Zeppelin and all seaplanes released all of their carrier-based aircraft! On the opposite side, the Japanese fleet is also releasing aircraft, but if you simply talk about the size of the fleet's aircraft, it is a bit smaller than the US fleet. However, what the Americans did not expect was that this time, the Japanese fleet not only bought one-way tickets for their twin bombers, but even some of them also bought one-way tickets! This time the Japanese also put all their chips on the table, and the wheel of fate is spinning again, and the peak moment is coming!

"I saw the U.S. fleet! I saw their new battleships! There must be flagships among them. I asked to attack the flagships first. They were ranked fifth and sixth on the battle line!" At this time, the Japanese bombers were approaching. The detachment also entered a state of battle. The huge fleet began to disband into squads. The dive bombers continued to maintain altitude, while the torpedo planes began to slide into the lightning route. At the last moment, the Americans put in their last air defense interception force, dozens of aircraft. Various planes rushed to the Japanese bomber group, but most of them were stopped by the escorting fighters.

　　 "The air raid begins! Watch out for American destroyers, their anti-aircraft firepower is very strong!" the captain of the team said to his colleagues.

The Americans allocated their destroyers in squadrons. The squadron composed of the previous eight battleships was split into two squads, and all the destroyers were arranged next to the capital ships according to the previous organization. From the Japanese Air Force’s point of view, this was a preparation for air defense. Cover posture.
