Ironically, this is fate, Yamamoto did depart from Rabaul on time at 6 o'clock in the morning in a land-based bomber of the "One", accompanied by his chief of staff, Ugaki.

The flight formation was small.

Because Yamamoto also knows that if the movement is too big, he will be beaten.

If you want to pretend to be forced and afraid of death, there is no one left.

Among them, Yamamoto took the No. 1 plane, Ugaki took the No. 2 plane, and only 6 "Zero" fighters were escorted.

Yamamoto's No. 1 flew at an altitude of 2,000 meters, and when the pilot saw the rainforest on Bougainville, he took a slip of paper, wrote a few words, and handed it to Yamamoto.

Yamamoto took it and looked at it, and it read, "I expect to fly to Bouin Airport at 7:45."

As soon as he finished writing the note, the pilot of the No. 1 plane saw an unusual movement in one of the "Zero" fighters escorting the escort.

The fighter plane suddenly deviated from course, broke away from the group, and jumped forward with an acceleration, and swung its wings at him, and the pilot pointed to his right rear.

This indicates that there are enemy forces approaching.

The pilot's heart sank suddenly, and he looked in the direction pointed by the pilot of the "Zero" fighter, only to see eight silver fifth-generation Tridents of the US military rapidly chasing after them, and their position was about 500 meters higher than that of the No. 1 plane.

This guy didn't have time to think about it, and immediately went down urgently.

Just as the No. 1 plane was making an emergency descent, six Japanese "Zero" fighters climbed rapidly, rushed into the US plane, and became entangled.

But they were biting only Bockman's cover group.

Bockman, as Rogers' wine-colored comrade-in-arms, deliberately lured the "Zero" fighter from Yamamoto's plane, in order to create an opportunity for Rogers' attack team to pursue and destroy Yamamoto.

A moment later, five fighters with bright red pentagrams on their wings suddenly appeared on the flanks of the battlefield.

Their nose was straight to Yamamoto's No. 1.

Yamamoto swears that he can see the face of the little two dogs!

The entangled escort Japanese troops were suddenly shocked, but it was already too late.

Boom - Rogers rushed up and did it, and he didn't hesitate to pull the trigger.

When the infrared missile flew straight over, Yamamoto's landline began to maneuver frantically.

But Rogers pulled the trigger again, and his men fired a barrage of cannonballs along with the generals who had gone into battle himself.

Yamamoto's plane burst into flames, and he suddenly fell down and took advantage of the opportunity to dodge the missile.

But the missile exploded behind his butt and accelerated his fall.

So Yamamoto's landline burned all the way and was planted directly into the dense rainforest of Bougainville.

Ugaki, who was in Unit 2, was completely stunned when he saw this scene.

At this moment, the United States is already coming at him.

The pilot of the No. 2 plane, in order to avoid the shells, made a sharp turn in the air.

After turning the corner, Ugaki saw another puff of black smoke coming out of the rainforest below, and he guessed that Yamamoto's landline had exploded again.

Soon the No. 2 machine was also hit.

The pilot of the No. 2 aircraft tried to make zigzag evasive maneuvers, but to no avail in front of the American plane, as the tail and wings of the plane were broken, the cabin was also pierced on both sides, and there was blood everywhere inside.

The plane eventually crashed into the sea.

After completing this mission, Rogers was in no hurry to return home.

He also took his deputies around several times and took a lot of photos before officially turning back.

As they landed, the US-Wahman coalition let out earth-shattering cheers.

After Rogers got off the plane, he also said to Eisenhower: "That's it! ”

"Are you sure?"

"Photographs prove it."

Rogers instructed the attaché to hurry up and develop the photo he had taken when he turned back.

Unless Yamamoto doesn't show up today, he's going to die!

Then he said to Eisenhower, "Send a telegram to Nimitz, Mingma." ”

"What about the content?" Eisenhower said, "Tiger tiger? ”

Rogers just spoke: "Tiger Tiger Tiger." ”

When the two of them spoke in unison, the brothers around them burst into laughter.

So at 9 o'clock, the Japanese army in Rabaul saw a piece of news.

Message content: Tiger Tiger Tiger.

Yamamoto's adjutantant, Watanabe, was unable to contact the chief, and his face darkened when he learned of the telegram.

He instinctively felt that Yamamoto might be finished.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before news came that something bad might happen to Yamamoto.

He rushed to Buin, where he met Chief of Staff Ugaki, who had been rescued from the sea.

Ugaki, who was in a trance due to fever and serious injuries, told Watanabe intermittently as if dreaming--the chief was four or five miles from Cape Camo, go quickly!

In fact, the location of Yamamoto's crash was "Cape Moira", and Ugaki mistakenly said that it was "Cape Kamo". So, Watanabe searched for a long time in "Cape Camo", but he didn't find his commander.

While the Japanese Navy was conducting a search, the Japanese Army, which remained on Bougainville Island, also sent a search team.

The group was idling in the jungle for two days. As he was about to return, one soldier said he seemed to smell gasoline.

Walking along the way, they found a dilapidated Type 1 land-based bomber smashed to pieces, and 11 corpses scattered everywhere.

There was a corpse with his feet facing the sky, he had a seat belt around his waist, his hair was gray, and when he looked closely, this person was wearing white gloves and a ribbon on his chest, judging by the three gold cherry blossoms embedded in his epaulettes, he was a general.

The captain of the Japanese army went to search the pockets of the corpse's jacket and found a notebook containing poems by Emperor Meiji and Empress Dowager Shoken.

The signature of the notebook is: Yamamoto Isoroku.

Two days later, the search team handed over the body to Watanabe, Yamamoto's adjutant.

Although the corpse had begun to decompose, Watanabe recognized at a glance that the man in the grass-green uniform was his commander.

He glanced again at the watch Yamamoto was wearing, and the hands stopped at 7:45.

The Japanese wanted to hide the news, but it was unrealistic.

Because the New York Times was the first to report the news that Major General Rogers of Wakanda personally piloted a fighter plane to kill the Pearl Hong Kong Kong Dollar.

Unless Yamamoto has a stand-in, the news cannot be hidden.

To be honest, there are actually quite a lot of people who hate him in the Japanese Navy.

You see, at Pearl Harbor you ran the fastest, and it was Nagumo who took the blame.

You lost at Midway, you lost in the South Pacific, and it was Hashimoto and others who took the blame.

As the so-called general's dog died, all the officials came to the door.

Once the general is dead, the car door in front of the door is scarce.

There are insiders who make trouble, and the news cannot be hidden at all.

When the news came back to Japan, the government and the opposition were shocked.

For the Japanese people, who had been deceived by the propaganda apparatus into believing that the Japanese army had been advancing vigorously since the beginning of the war, the mental blow caused by Yamamoto's death was incalculable.

As a result, the Japanese government was forced to admit that the U.S. military's war capability was rapidly recovering, and even began to fight back.

The Japanese authorities immediately posthumously conferred the title of Daishi Yamamoto, the first rank of meritorious, the third rank of the main three, and the title of marshal.

Then they said they would hold a state funeral for Yamamoto on June 5 in Tokyo's Hibiya Park with a million people in order to boost the morale of the decadent people.

The news reached the ears of Soviet Russia on May 2.

On May 9, Han Huaiyi sent a telegram to his son, saying: "There are often sudden insults that people have to endure, such as the Lugou Bridge, or the sound of firecrackers from the enemy at the funeral. ”
