Chapter 39: The Ghost Is Stupid

On September 15, 1917, China's political situation was constantly changing, and the attack on the Whampoa Military Academy in the early hours of yesterday morning, as well as the condemnation of the Chinese National Defense Forces yesterday, caused a great uproar in China's political and business circles, including the ordinary people in those cities, towns, and counties who could hear the "chatterbox".

The common people, who are endowed with heavenly principles and human feelings, naturally want to say that these overseers, the League, and the Chinese Revolutionary Party have done something that disregards righteousness. On the contrary, those who think they have some political common sense know that it is nothing more than a "wall falling down and everyone pushing it".

Therefore, everything is on the eve of the imminent storm, and as usual, before the decisive battle and the result is reached, everyone does not want to make more noise, and one by one only opens their eyes and ears.

At this time, Luknar, the ghost of the sea above the Yellow Sea, has not cared so much, and as the commander of the navy, he has the right to chase his reputation. Therefore, in the Yellow Sea, one of the most unique naval battles in the world unfolded.

On the third day of the war, the Japanese side of Kato Yuzaburo broke the radio silence as originally planned, and did not hide his whereabouts, and a large number of Japanese "Sea Knight" fighters attacked in all directions to find Captain Luckner's Chinese Navy task force.

At the same time, the fleet sky was also formed by these fighters to patrol the flight escort, providing them with a safe air escort. Although the opponent's "Sea Sabre" was more advanced than these "Sea Knight" planes, the navy of the Japanese = one = Ben ~ read = side had the power to protect in the air, and some personnel in the Japanese Navy were a little relieved.

This person is Yamamoto Isoroku, and at this moment, looking at the "Sea Knight" type fighter plane that is constantly taking off into the sky, he misses his former subordinates. His men were the Japanese planes that were used by Richthofen to "teach" the German pilots over Kagoshima during the last Thunder International rescue of German pilots.

Holding the telescope in his hand, Yamamoto raised his head and looked at the group of attack planes lined up in the sky.

In the early hours of this morning, he received a telegram from Admiral Yuzaburo Kato, asking him questions about the use of naval aviation and asking him to provide him with his plan for a decisive battle against the enemy's main fleet.

Isoroku Yamamoto immediately presented his own battle plan.

"Your Excellency Admiral Kato, as the weather is gradually improving, we should send planes to search the location of the enemy fleet as soon as possible and use carrier-based air power to strike intensively against them, while our fleet should try its best to get close to the opposing fleet and, if possible, use the firepower of the main fleet to strike at the enemy!"

In fact, Yamamoto Isoroku, who had been studying the two battles of Jutland since returning from the United States, knew that as long as he could destroy the opponent's air power in advance, he would naturally be able to capture it without needing more strength.

But the second half of this plan is something to be used to save the face of the admiral.

Imagine that Admiral Yuzaburo Kato had certainly participated in the Russo-Japanese naval battle, and everyone could naturally expect that in terms of the progress of naval tactics, he could not compare with Yamamoto Isoroku, who had just returned to Europe and the United States and had always taken the two Jutland naval battles as his research goal.

However, if the naval aviation is only allowed to be in the limelight this time, it will only make the "elders" of the DPRK and China who are now in power unhappy, and their careers will naturally be affected in the future, so they will hold back such a plan to use air power to entangle the main force of the navy to come forward and use naval guns to solve the battle.

Unfortunately, at this time, the name of Count Lukner's "ghost captain" did not reach the ears of the Japanese, who only knew that the Chinese Navy used a German general, thinking that like the German advisers in the First Sino-Japanese Naval War in the past, they had no real skills, and they were all things that would only cheat their salaries.

All along, the task force cruising in these seas, and the battles on land were lively, which had long annoyed the officers and men of the navy. If it weren't for the wonderful voice that sounded from time to time on the ship's cable broadcasting network, they really didn't know how Japan would have lived.

"Attention, attention, all the crew immediately return to their positions, pay attention to ......"

The siren sounded on the warship, and the soldiers lying on the shelves in the cabins, or the soldiers chatting on the deck, immediately went into chaos. It wasn't until they arrived at their posts that they realized that they had seen the other side's reconnaissance plane.

Suddenly, the ship trembled. The fleet, which had been slowly advancing towards the east, immediately rose to full speed. The sailors looked at the direction they were heading with some confusion, and could not help but wonder if the German admiral they had always admired was about to escape. Why is the direction in which they are moving to the east, isn't it getting farther and farther away from the theater of operations.

This, of course, was met by the planes in the sky that carried out the air cover of the fleet, and the reconnaissance planes of the Japanese side. When the Japanese reconnaissance planes saw this, they could no longer follow them, and they returned home. When the reconnaissance plane returned to its home plane, the news reached the ears of Isoroku Yamamoto, who commanded the air operation.

"Report, we have found the fleet of the Chinese people, they include five large surface ships, 8 cruisers, 13 destroyers, heading due east ......"

Hearing the report of the reconnaissance plane, Yamamoto Isoroku looked at the nautical chart, he did not understand, what the opposing fleet was doing due east, there was .......

"The mainland, the China Navy is going to attack our mainland...... These cunning Shina people, quickly report this news to Admiral Kato! ”

After watching it for a long time, Yamamoto Fifty-six suddenly understood that the destination of these fleets was on the Japanese mainland. In other words, what the other party just used was just a trick to "encircle Wei and save Zhao".

The telegram came to the majestic bridge of the battleship "Ise", and felt the feeling of Admiral Heihachiro Togo back then, and now it was even more exciting that there were dozens of planes hovering above his head to guard the skies of the fleet.

"What a majestic fleet!"

Like all Japanese people, when they sigh, they always have a sense of longing for beauty. But the reality is often very cruel, especially when this level of war is being waged.

"What, the China Navy is targeting the homeland? Why would they do this? Aren't they afraid that we will immediately attack Qingdao? Could there be some conspiracy in this? ”

Yuzaburo Kato looked at the location of the opposing fleet marked on the chart, and couldn't help but add another question in his heart. As the commander of the Combined Fleet, he ensured not only the security of the fleet itself, or the security of the landing force of the fleet.

The main problem was that if the enemy's attacking fleet was abandoned, it was feared that the homeland would suffer heavy losses. After all, the bombardment of the two battleships on the opposite shore, not to mention anything else, the industry near Kitakyushu will definitely not be able to hold on. Then, even if the navy wins this battle, the cabinet will inevitably be impeached.

In addition, if the fleet disregards the threat of the enemy fleet and lands directly. At that time, the air attack of the fleet would not only be from the coast. This is because the enemy's plan must be to lure the Combined Fleet into a landing operation and then attack from behind, making it difficult for the Combined Fleet to cope with the attack from land and sea.

Timing in naval battles is very important, and the situation has made it impossible for Yuzaburo Kato to delay any longer, and he must make a decision immediately.

"Let's watch the first release together, please support genuine reading, and support the author's creation" Don't laugh and give birth to a group: 35761481; Mailbox:.

"If we act immediately, we may still be able to catch up with the cunning Shina fleet...... The landing group is on standby at sea, and the main force of the combined fleet follows the enemy in pursuit of the enemy fleet, and at the same time, a large number of aircraft should be dispatched from the aircraft carrier to launch attacks on the enemy in turn, so as to delay their movements and make sure to drive the enemy to the waters between Jeju Island and the Korean sea......"

It was a wishful thinking, and Jeju Island was less than 100 kilometers off the coast of North Korea, and it was not far from the front that it would be within the range of Japanese batteries shelling the Sea of Tsushima. If the First Task Force of the Chinese Fleet wants to enter there, if Lucknar has a problem with his brain, he will bring his main force in.

Admiral Luknar had far more taste than Yuzaburo Fuji, and at the moment he sat in the spacious, bright, air-conditioned cabin of the aircraft carrier, enjoying his pipe and occasionally moistening his throat with a glass of red wine.

The 1st Task Force did two things before reaching the waters off Jeju Island, as if to speed up the advance of his entire fleet for him, and the faster cruisers and destroyers made a detour to the south side of Jeju Island, as if to avoid artillery fire. The slower, heavier ships plunged headlong into Jeju Island and the North Korean coast.

Such an arrangement cannot help but make people wonder whether Luknar is suffering from a fever. His heavy ships will be like rats in the wind, bombarded by heavy artillery from Jeju Island and off the coast of North Korea.

Although the heavy warships of the Chinese Navy will encounter some risks, these have long been expected by Luknar. Therefore, when the heavy carriers only entered this short strait, all the planes of the entire fleet were dispatched. An air saturation attack on the heavy shore artillery on the coast made it impossible for the Japanese artillery units stationed there to carry out an effective attack.

"Report to General Kato, the main ships of the Shina fleet have entered the circle of fire between Jeju Island and the coast of North Korea, and the light and fast warships are making a detour from the southern part of Jeju Island with no change course. Now the enemy fleet is using a large number of carrier-based aircraft to launch an attack on our coastal batteries, trying to quickly pass through the strait! ”

As long as the enemy fleet is effectively intercepted there, it will certainly be able to catch up with the combined fleet and use naval guns, shore artillery, and naval aircraft to carry out saturation strikes against the enemy's main force, and finally annihilate the First Fleet of the Chinese Navy in one fell swoop, so as to avenge the destruction of the Japanese Second Naval Fleet.

On the morning of that day, a stupid "ghost" suddenly appeared and brought the Chinese Navy into a dangerous situation.
