Nakaju Shaozo thought that at this time, that is, when the Japanese fighters were approaching the "Xianghe" aircraft carrier, the Chinese army should have fighters to catch up, or that the two groups of Chinese fighters that had just engaged in the battle would also catch up from behind and flank them, otherwise they would dive down and bomb the "Xianghe".

In fact, this is also the beginning of the plan of one of the Yamada Michi...... If the Chinese army used all its fighters to intercept Nakaju Shaosa's group, then the bomber group led by Michiyuki Yamada could easily break through the Chinese army's defenses and bomb the "Shozuru".

However, to the surprise of all the Japanese pilots, the fighters of the Chinese army did not catch up from the front or from the rear.

There are two reasons why Chinese fighters did not do this.

One is that at this time, the radar on the "Ziqiang" had already discovered the second wave of the Japanese army, and Zhang Junhua sensitively sensed that this second wave of aircraft was likely to be the main force of the Japanese army...... It is not difficult to guess that the first wave is likely to attract the attention of Chinese fighters.

So at that moment, Zhang Junhua ordered the fighters of the first and second formations to climb high to intercept the second wave of the Japanese army, and this time Yamada Michiyuki was in trouble, because the group he led only had 12 Zero fighters, and the rest of the dozens of fighters were all bombers and torpedo planes with weak anti-air combat effectiveness.

Of course, this was only a minor trouble, and the reason was that the Chinese pilots did not dare to entangle with the Japanese army for a long time due to the "three-step" principle...... As a matter of fact, the Japanese Zero fighters have a great advantage over the "Wildcat" fighters in hand-to-hand dogfights, and even if the 24 fighters of the two formations of the Chinese army fight with the 12 Japanese fighters, they will not necessarily win.

Therefore, the Chinese army's insistence on the "three-step" is undoubtedly correct.

This "little trouble" of the Japanese army was that its bombers were large in size and slow in flight, so the Chinese fighters shot down more than 10 of their bombers in one dive, bringing considerable losses to the Japanese bomber formation.

The reason why the Chinese fighters did not catch up was that Zhang Junhua hoped that the anti-aircraft guns of the fleet could give full play to their firepower...... At this time, if the fighter is allowed to meet the fighter, the anti-aircraft gun will have the possibility of accidental injury, which will not only cause "friendly casualties" but also tie the gunner's hands.

What's more important is that the anti-aircraft guns equipped by the Sino-US coalition forces at this time have been upgraded......

The first person to feel this was Nakaju Shaoza, who was shocked to find that the Chinese army's anti-aircraft guns were extremely accurate, and it was only a few seconds to see two fighters hit by shells and turn into a terrifying fireball in the air.

"Impossible!" Nakaju Shaozo shouted a little angrily: "Aren't we dealing with the Chinese Navy? How could they be so powerful! ”

The quality of the Chinese Navy is indeed not to be underestimated, and this is a misjudgment on the part of the Japanese army, but this is not entirely because of the quality of the Chinese Navy, but because the MK12 Gaoping dual-purpose gun replaced on the aircraft carrier is the latest version of the US naval gun, which is equipped with the MK37 shooting director and the MK12 radar, that is, it has the function of automatically searching for targets and aiming and shooting.

Of course, Nakaju Shaozo didn't know this, and thought that it was the Chinese Navy gunners who hit him so accurately, which really scared him.

Then, what made Nakaju Shaozo even more stunned was ...... He found that some of the shells exploded near the fighter plane, destroying and injuring the fighter plane, even though they did not hit the fighter.

"What's going on?" Nakaju Shaozo shouted over the radio: "Is this a new weapon for the Chinese troops?" ”

"What?" Michiyuki Yamada on the other end of the radio couldn't help but feel a creep: "What new weapon?" ”

"Yes...... It's a cannonball! Nakaju Shaozo replied: "They will explode automatically!" ”

"How is that possible!" Michiyuki Yamada didn't believe it at all, but when he looked at the bombing group of Nakai planes in front of him, and saw the black fog exploding next to the group.

Nakaju Shaozuo guessed correctly, this is a new artillery shell invented by the US military, called a "radio proximity fuse" shell.

Prior to this, most of the shells used trigger shells, which had to hit the enemy aircraft directly for the fuse to explode the warhead, otherwise the shell would only pass by the target. The effectiveness of such fused shells is clearly inferior.

And the "radio proximity fuze" can deal with this problem very well...... It starts working after the shell is fired, continuously measuring the distance between the shell and the target by emitting radio waves, and the fuse does not detonate when the projectile is getting closer to the target. Of course, if the shell hits the target directly, then the trigger of the fuse will detonate the bomb, which is the proximity fuse will not work.

But if the shell does not hit the target, but passes by the target...... The radio waves will measure that the distance between the shell and the target is increasing, so at this moment, the "proximity fuse" will detonate the shell, and the shrapnel and shock wave generated will also cause some damage to the target or even destroy it.

In particular, the object of these shells is still the Zero fighter with almost no defensive armor...... As a result, shells exploded in the air, and one fighter plane after another was destroyed and fell to the sea.

In the end, although a few fighters were lucky enough to pass through the firepower network organized by these shells, they reluctantly found that the last batch of fighters that the Chinese army had just taken off from the aircraft carrier appeared overhead.

At this time, there was a sudden murmur on the walkie-talkie of Michiyuki Yamada, and Michiyuki Yamada seemed to understand something, so he hurriedly grabbed the walkie-talkie and called: "Kazuo Nakai!" Kazuo Nakai ......"

But there was no answer on the other end of the intercom. Yes

Michiyuki Yamada couldn't help but sigh, looked at his subordinates who were full of fear and helplessness, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Everyone, the target 'Xianghe'!" Offensive! ”

As he spoke, Michiyuki Yamada took the lead in driving the fighter plane towards the "Xianghe......

In the eyes of the Chinese Navy, what they saw was that the Japanese fighters were like moths to the flames, one after another crashing into the barrage of anti-aircraft shells, and then one after another smoked, and then let out a strange roar and swept nearby.

One of the fighters suddenly maneuvered at a large angle to raise the plane with black smoke already rising from the tail, and then crashed almost vertically into the flight deck of the "Xianghe."

Soon countless bullets and shells flew towards the fighter, but in fact...... Even if the fighter plane was hit in this state, it would be stuck on the deck of the "Xianghe" because of its speed and free fall motion, and from this point of view, the Japanese pilot was very smart.

So only the sound of "boom" was heard, and the "Pinghai" burst into flames in a shock.
