Vol 3 Chapter 287: Track aircraft carrier group

Billy Grenum is a young pilot who graduated in electrical engineering from the University of Florida. According to his farmer's father, he should continue to study for a master's degree in electronics or find a decent job at the factory every day. Or earn a decent salary in the lab. Ever since the economic crisis was replaced by war, Americans have always had no shortage of jobs.
However, when he saw the blonde-breasted beauties in the navy air uniform on the recruiting poster, and faced with the line "Child, America needs you" on the poster, he chose to apply for a pilot.
As a result, an outstanding college student who has demonstrated strong flying talents and was extremely eager for the blue sky since he was a child, and an outstanding young science and engineering student who can easily pilot an old farmer ’s crop airplane at the age of twelve. Dream came to the Navy of the United States. He was then assigned to the Pacific Fleet's 18th Air Force.
In the six months since he came to Pearl Harbor, he not only successfully won the title of F4F Wildcat Carrier Aircraft Outstanding Pilot, but also successfully became the first batch of quasi-ace pilots to fly to F6f Hellcat Carrier. You know, this Hellcat carrier aircraft is a large-scale advanced carrier aircraft designed by the United States based on the excellent carrier aircraft of China, Germany, and Japan. Billy can quickly and skillfully master his flying skills, which is enough to prove his excellent.
However, just because it was his vacation day, Billy temporarily left the huge aircraft carrier in the port, and was going to look for the blonde and beauty in the medical room early in the morning, a mixed-race style that looks like a poster girl Beauty, bring a rose and date her.
As a result, before Billy had time to speak, the Japanese air strike began. The sun flag raged over Pearl Harbor. Even the medical center was bombed. Jenny went to take care of the wounded. Billy is also trying to rebel, looking for a surviving aircraft on the runway, taking off, and then trying to shoot down those enemies.
"Damn God, the Japanese raped-raped the entire Pacific."
When seeing the burning smoke of Pearl Harbor, which was seriously damaged by the Japanese, Billy cursed, and finally found a plane hiding in the corner of the outer hangar, a relatively new Tomahawk fighter, P40 . "The Japanese must be counterattacked and tasted down."
Billy's beloved Jenny was not killed because she called her out of the medical clinic. While talking to her, the medical clinic was hit by a bomb. Although Jenny and herself escaped, the numbers Ten lovely American girls were buried under the rubble, and the chance of survival was very small.
As a responsible young man with the courage to defend the United States, he believes that he must do something for Jenny and for the United States.
As Jenny said, ‘I ’m going to save more wounded, and you ’ll join the brave American soldiers to create casualties for the enemy. ’
"I must fly it to the blue sky. With my fighting level, it is enough to shoot down four or five Japanese planes." Billy is not arrogant. In normal training, he has always been the top of the Pearl Harbor pilots. And he believes that once he shows his most determined fighting enthusiasm, the level of air combat can break through.
He was fortunate enough to find a mechanic, and then the two of them together overhauled the aircraft and removed some unnecessary parts that were damaged by machine gun bullets. All he needed was a machine gun and a fighter that could fly.
"Billy, look at ..."
When mechanic Ryan exclaimed, pointed to the distance, exclaimed in horror, Billy was injecting a barrel of aviation oil into the plane, and he needed to take off immediately because, as an experienced pilot, he knew the Japanese The sneak attack in China cannot last for only a quarter of an hour, it should be a wave.
"Damn, why are there a bunch of enemy planes attacked by the air? Didn't the Japanese plane just leave?" Billy was very puzzled, he cursed a few gods, and quickly continued to prepare for takeoff. He Know that the time for fighting is coming.
He didn't know how many people would take off with him, but he knew that he would definitely be able to fly and shoot down the enemy.
So, during Billy's final preparations, he saw a scene far worse than the Japanese first wave of air strikes.
"Damn, Minneapolis was hit ... Oh my god, it was the aircraft carrier North Dakota ... and Nebraska was hit again ..."
In Ryan's panic scream, Billy felt scared and sweating.
This was a bomber with a smaller fleet size than the previous wave, but the actual damage caused was much larger.
Billy found that these Japanese enemy aircraft did not carry dive attack aircraft, nor did they conduct ultra-low-altitude bombardment and raids, but simply threw the heavy aviation bombs they carried into Pearl Harbor, the gathering battleships. A considerable part was hit.
"Ryan, hurry ... those big guys of at least 500 kilograms, as long as they fall within one hundred meters of us, we are national heroes. Don't look at those big guys, only one hit is needed, they can only be regarded as Scrap iron came back after the war ... "
Billy is very clear. This kind of seemingly small-scale air strike is scary with high accuracy, even if it is because the warships in Pearl Harbor are dead targets that cannot move, and the density is high, but he still finds that even the Pacific Fleet The best bomber squadrons cannot complete such high-level horizontal bombing.
The enemy's strength is beyond his imagination. At least in terms of bomber bombing technology, he believes that the Japanese surpassed the American Air Force.
So Billy turned his back and repaired the plane intently, climbed into the cockpit, ready to check for takeoff, and Ryan cursed, but exclaimed because a big ship was hit.
"K, the New Jersey was hit, at least three big guys ..."
Even if Billy was calm enough, but he heard Ryan's exclaiming, he still couldn't help looking up. At the entrance, the huge battleship, which was larger than the aircraft carrier, was already crooked in the port. Several huge aerial bombs fell, and at least three hit it, all of which penetrated into the interior and exploded. "New Jersey is also dead. The damned Japanese actually used more than 500 kilograms of missiles. The 45,000-ton Iowa-class battleship ..."
Billy only felt cold for a while. He was very clear about the consequences of the battleships that far exceeded 500 kg. If the number was 3, then the only result in New Jersey was the same.
"Dirty and dirty Japanese, just after throwing small bombs, and throwing such big guys again, the United States will punish them. Amen ..." Ryan shook her head and continued to work, only to hear the huge When the explosion sounded, I looked up to see which big guy was hit by the enemy ’s blockbuster aviation bomb.
"Da da da……"
Just then, an air-defense position on the hill outside the port suddenly roared, and the anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns instantly shot out the barrage.
"Haha ... yeah ... those guys are fighting back." Ryan was just happy to be dancing. However, Billy calmly saw that the anti-aircraft firepower did not even complete the elevation of the enemy aircraft. Whether it was only anti-aircraft machine guns or anti-aircraft guns, all of them changed from air defense to 'empty.' He was about to say something, and when he saw the unexpected situation over the air defense position, he shut his mouth again.
It turned out that within a short time of roaring in the air defense position, at least a dozen small aviation bombs fell down. Among the huge explosions, the only air defense position that sounded a resistance sounded out again.
"Damn, the enemy's bombing accuracy is too high."
Billy hated, but he knew that as long as he could take off, the bomber in the sky would become the prey of his superb flying skills.
After the enemy group raged back and forth twice, the plane was finally able to take off.
"Billy, it's up to you." Ryan waved his greasy hands and laughed to encourage this air warrior who was even familiar with him.
"Well, look at me."
Billy has decided that he only needs to take off the plane, fly against the ground and buildings, and then join other sporadic fighters on the island to give the Japanese a second sneak attack.
Starting the aircraft almost rudely, bumping on the rubble airstrip, Billy finally took off with superb skills.
Unsurprisingly, in the other direction of Oahu, there were also two P40 Tomahawk aircraft and two older P35 Selwski aircrafts.
"It will be successful." Billy kept telling himself, and then, sure enough, the mid-to-high altitude enemy aircraft did not immediately find the plane that was taking off from the ground and shuttled in the building, at least not immediately making an attack.
Billy successfully moved closer to the other four aircraft to form two two-aircraft formations. Billy was single in the end. He believed that he did not need an wingman and could easily deal with Japanese bombers.
He is not arrogant. The Japanese must have a large number of fighters. This can be seen from the sky. All he needs to do is to shoot down the enemy's bomber.
"May God bless the United States of democracy and freedom."
Billy secretly prayed, then raised the plane and flew towards a bomber-like plane in the distance. From time to time, as the altitude continued to rise, he found that these planes were indeed painted with the sun flag. He also faintly found that among the several aircrafts not far away at high altitudes, they were slightly similar to the Japanese advanced fighters.
What Billy doesn't know is that when he and four other planes rushed up bravely, the ‘Japanese Aircraft Group’ had already discovered the four planes that had taken off by radar early warning aircraft.
Of course, after the four poor planes took off, Chinese pilots could also spot them visually.
"Squad 5, you are responsible for shooting them down, and taking them to the middle and high altitudes at sea ..."
After Wu Cunxiao got the report, he quickly issued an order, and the four aircraft of the fifth squadron immediately flew over. And Billy's P40 plane just appeared in front of the HJ-3 fighter plane that Songzhou drove, nicknamed the J-3 carrier version of the blue shark.
"Ask for an attack." Song Zhou quickly issued a report. He knew that his plane was, after all, different from an ordinary combat aircraft, because it carried the lens of the compound eye battlefield surveillance system.
"You can attack." The radio channel quickly responded to his request.
Of course, Songzhou never knew that the person who responded to his request was holding a cup of tea, staring at him in a high-tech underground office, and staring at every move of Pearl Harbor.
"A small-scale air battle, I don't know what the winning percentage will be."
Zhang Shusheng stared at the 3D picture. After five planes were provoked by Chinese planes, they decisively abandoned the attack bombers. After all, they also found that the enemy's fighters were faster and more flexible than their planes. Going to attack the bomber, you may be blasted from the back.
I saw the first two U.S. military aircraft arriving over the sea to form a two-aircraft formation, against an HJ-3 Blue Shark two-aircraft formation.
Faced with this silver-white fuselage, with a sun flag, and a weird carrier-based aircraft smeared by the shark's mouth, it did not look like an airplane. Although the two US pilots were familiar, they didn't care too much.
The first time they thought of was the Chinese carrier-based aircraft. Although the HJ-3 Blue Shark had a high degree of confidentiality and appeared in front of various countries, the Chinese main carrier-based aircraft was still the HJ-2 type. However, this Blue Shark fighter , And the Germans, the Japanese's latest fighter, is still somewhat similar, at least in appearance.
They did not doubt too much, of course, because the situation on the battlefield did not allow it, and air combat broke out.
After two US aircrafts circled a large circle, they found that the enemy aircraft behind them had not been thrown away at all, but were approached by the firepower of the machine gun machine gun.
The US pilot who was frightened did not expect that the opponent's instantaneous acceleration ability would be so strong, and they caught up in no time. Both of them climbed rapidly, preparing to rely on occupying air combat altitude, and then turned around to fight back.
"Destroy them!"
This is the common thought of the pilots of the two HJ-3 blue shark carrier aircraft. Americans are not familiar with this new carrier aircraft from China after all, but Chinese pilots will be the main force of the US military within a few months. The carrier-based aircraft have been trained enough for simulation, and even several similar US military aircraft have been specially produced for this purpose.
In an instant, the two blue sharks climbed wildly at high elevation angles. Although the advantage in climbing speed was not as obvious as the momentary acceleration just now, they also quickly caught up with the US military aircraft.
The two planes also tried to turn at a small angle and turned around to resist. As a result, the two guns exploded directly into the volley of the two P40s. The pilot failed to even parachute. One of them was not killed directly, but fell directly into the sea .
The height of the air battlefield is more than 2,200 meters from the sea ...
After the P40 is over, the two more worn out P35s are naturally resolved more quickly.
The last struggle was Billy.
Until the last moment, Billy, who had taken out almost all of the air maneuvers he would have, was still firmly locked by the enemy pilot.
In a head-on attack, Billy's machine gun fired behind the opponent's aircraft, and this inexplicable enemy aircraft fired a machine gun bullet that hit his cockpit, and then a series of machine guns ...
Until the end, Billy didn't understand why the Japanese pilot was so powerful and he was already an elite. Did he just run into a Japanese elite casually?
He guessed wrong and guessed right. The Songzhou on the opposite side is indeed an elite, but also an ace elite, but it is not the Japanese, but the Chinese he never thought of.
In his thinking, he never thought that the two big powers on the other side of the Pacific Ocean would come to attack the United States together.
"American heroes have fallen again."
Zhang Shusheng smiled slightly. In the 3D picture, the U.S. pilot who persisted to the end is undoubtedly the elite pilot of the U.S. military. He is skilled in flight skills and the performance is not very backward. Shot down.
The U.S. military plane even tried to break away from the Blue Shark in Songzhou midway to sneak attack on a HH-3 Jingwei bomber not far away, but was stopped.
In a film called Pearl Harbor that I have seen in previous lives, Zhang Shusheng clearly remembers that at this elite Pacific Fleet headquarters, there are so many elite pilots of the US military. They randomly pull out a team, and their flying skills are very good. In that movie, several U.S. pilots who took off in a chaotic manner shot down nearly ten Japanese planes and achieved glorious results.
However, this time, although there was almost no reason for the interval between air strikes and the pressure on the ground of the U.S. military was too great, the air defense positions of several takeoff planes did not work.
Of course, Zhang Shusheng can also foresee that if the next batch of Japanese machines arrives and the Chinese fleet does not take a few steps at this most difficult time for Americans, then Pearl Harbor will still have many war heroes. Shoot down many Japanese planes.
Only this time, their war heroes can only count on the elites in the subsequent carrier fleets that have not yet returned to Hong Kong.
"Reported that the Japanese military fleet will arrive in five minutes."
When the Seahawk reconnaissance aircraft reported on the situation of the Japanese fleet, the time of the 'intermission'-style air strike was temporarily over.
"The depot was finally found."
Zhang Shusheng casually clicked from the picture. In addition to the approximately 30 warships that were named, the US military's oil depot has been blown into flames. Millions of barrels of oil have turned into huge fires, huge fireballs caused by the oil depots, and even Like a mushroom cloud of small nuclear bombs, it became the final shot of this air strike.
Although he did not know if this was one of the largest oil depots of the U.S. military on Oahu, at least, at the scale of the explosion just now, at least most of the aviation fuel was detonated in this explosion.
Judging from the overall situation of Pearl Harbor, the losses of the US military have been very serious. Even if the Japanese did not follow up with bombing, the main force of the US Pacific Fleet, except for the six aircraft carriers that had temporarily escaped, had also been abolished.
Looking at the aircraft group returning to the flight, Zhang Shusheng knew that the air raid at Pearl Harbor had nothing to do with the special task force of China for the time being ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Instead, it had to run as fast as possible.
As many as six US aircraft carriers have not been found, then, it is conceivable that a large-scale Pearl Harbor air battle is likely to erupt next.
Although Zhang Shusheng wanted to ‘help’ the Japanese, he could n’t do anything. After all, the loss was necessary, and the little devil always had to shed some blood, otherwise how could he see Uncle Sam ’s brutality.
What the special task force needs to do is to wait purely, wait for the Seahawk reconnaissance aircraft to return to the aircraft carrier, refuel and rest, and then set off again.
"The first phase of the mission was completed very well. The next task for the Seahawk is to follow the US carrier-based aircraft returning after the air war and find out where the American carrier fleet is. This is very important."
On the aircraft carrier Dachu, the combat room, and the commander of the special fleet, Ge Cunsheng, issued a second step of the combat order to find the US aircraft carrier group. This is a first step plan and does not eliminate most Pacific fleet aircraft carriers.
And Zhang Shusheng also silently looked forward to it. Compared to those warships with poor uses, these six aircraft carriers are what he most cares about, "the six ships are really exciting ..."
