"It's finally our turn!" Major Wang Lei, the captain of the aviation wing on the Shushan-class aircraft carrier Qingcheng, shouted excitedly to the deck at the door of the command room.

There was a burst of jubilation on the deck, and the pace of hustle and bustle immediately increased.

In fact, there is no need to be busy, everyone in the rear has already prepared everything, just waiting for the signal to be transmitted, and they can take off immediately.

Lieutenant Yu Guanglei, who was in the lounge on the first deck, was stunned when he heard the news of the battle, and then hurriedly added a few more words to the letter to his fiancée, "On November 11, at 10:11 a.m., we are finally going to fight. I will give you the best medal as a dowry. Wait for me! ”

Born in a rural area, he even learned his name in an army literacy class.

When he left a suicide note before the war, he thought about it for a long time before he made up a dozen dry lines on the letter to his fiancée. But the last two sentences have a hint of the poetry that the teacher who teaches his own culture often reads.

However, Yu Guanglei was not in a joyful mood. This is to fight, life and death are unpredictable.

He scanned the suicide note he had written to his fiancée, and remembered the scene when he was injured and met her in the hospital, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl.

"Hurry up, it's time for our squadron!" The squadron leader next to him waved at the door, and the teammates who had already sorted out their flight suits and were silent, immediately stood up and walked out.

Yu Guanglei folded the letter, and was just about to hand it to the instructor who kept the letter, but the corners of his mouth instantly bent, his face tensed, opened the letter, and crossed out the last three words with a pen.

"Get a medal!" This abridged letter was still in Guanglei's personal pocket, and he did not leave it, he touched the location of the letter, looked at the sky with a layer of haze outside the reinforced glass of the cockpit, muttered softly in a low voice, and pushed the accelerator, the roar of the engine immediately drowned out all the noise around him.

……

"Battleship to battleship, cruiser to cruiser, aircraft carrier to aircraft carrier. This time, the arrangement is very classical and chivalrous! On the Emei aircraft carrier, the 35-year-old captain Colonel Lin Chi shook his head slightly as he looked at the fighters that had taken off one after another.

It's not that he can't help but see that this operation has a strong training flavor from the beginning, but he is even more eager to give full play to the maximum combat power of the mount under his feet. He used his outstanding achievements to tell everyone that the theory of aircraft carrier victory that he had been advocating since he returned from studying in Britain was correct. Even in the face of a super battleship like the Yamato-class, it is enough to destroy it with an aircraft carrier.

But his superiors never gave him a chance.

Of course, he didn't know that Meng Xiang was more confident in the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier than him, but Meng Xiang still hoped to put the aura of the battleship on the Americans and the Japanese to the end.

After several battles, both the Americans and the Japanese had affirmed the role of the aircraft carrier, but in the face of the H-class battleships of the Germans and the Zhenyuan-class battleships of the Huaxia, they still believed in the power of the larger naval guns.

Battleships have always been a strategic deterrent weapon in this era. The role it plays is not limited to combat. Coupled with the existence of the old naval authorities, the Americans continued to develop a larger battleship program after producing 4 Montanas. Even the design phase of the Japanese Super Yamato project has come to an end.

As long as a cabinet bomb or a slam bomb is used, or even an aircraft carrier is used, the high-altitude bombing of an airship alone can sink one or two battleships.

At high altitude on the battlefield between the two sides, the three Kirov airships hovering are not only responsible for communication. In addition to one ship, which was mainly responsible for communication transmission and tactical command tests, the other two also carried six cabinet bombs at this time. This is the same mission as a B-29 strategic bombardment group that is on standby from afar, also armed with a cabinet bomb. All are remedies prepared to prevent the Huaxia Navy from failing the exam.

But now, none of these measures will work. Meng Xiang still insisted on using the battle of battleships to teach the Huaxia Navy a lesson and draw a successful end to his super battlefleet. Until one day, when the Chinese Navy burst out warships on a large scale. It will surprise the opponent with the power of the mixed formation of the Chinese aircraft carrier.

Before the Huaxia Navy has yet to hand over a satisfactory examination paper on the formation of the sea surface fleet, it will not be able to talk about mixed air-air formation operations, but can only fight against soldiers and conduct actual combat drills against generals.

For this reason, the fighters of the aircraft carrier still did not mean to interfere in the sea fleets of China and Japan, which were fighting fiercely, but were more than 20 nautical miles away from the battlefield and first intercepted the fighters that the Japanese were flying towards them.

The Huaxia aircraft carriers were not hidden, and the Japanese quickly discovered their location. In order to solve the hidden danger as soon as possible, the three aircraft carriers of the Flying Eagle, the Eagle Falcon, and the Great Eagle, which were dragged in the rear, were dispatched together.

It is necessary to deal with both China and the United States. The Japanese have already perceived the inadequacy of aircraft carriers. Although the umbrella company can provide relatively cheap aircraft carriers, Japan also needs to start its own shipbuilding industry to make the social economy work well. So the construction of new aircraft carriers and even the modification of aircraft carriers are underway.

Among them, the aircraft carrier Flying Eagle was converted from the passenger ship Izumo Maru, its sister ship Hayataka was converted from the passenger ship Kashihara Maru, and the lead ship of the Otaka-class aircraft carrier, Japan's first escort aircraft carrier, was converted from a 17,000-ton luxury cruise ship.

Such a modification of a civilian ship saves both money and time. However, the relative speed and armor performance are poor. The Japanese Navy prefers a real aircraft carrier with a real military standard design that can withstand all kinds of harsh environments. As a result, most of these modified aircraft carriers remained near the mainland and took on the role of vigilance and inspection.

This time, the formation of the battleship Musashi brought three ships at once, but there were not many fighters that could be carried.

There are 58 aircraft on the Eagle and 53 on the Falcon, which looks like a lot, but each fighter board only carries 15 aircraft. More often than not, there are only 27 aircraft on the Great Eagle for training, and only 8 fighters.

In addition to leaving eight fighters to escort the aircraft carrier formation, only 30 fighters can take off for battle.

Because Japan is constantly redeploying the elite of HNA in the south, the ultra-zero fighter is given priority to the south. As a result, the naval forces of the Japanese Northern Fleet and the Home Fleet retained a large number of Zero fighters.

Zero vs. Hellcat, the Japanese themselves are a little weak-minded.

In the training of rookie Chinese pilots, one of them was against Japanese Zero fighter pilots. Either to find the land flight of the Korean Peninsula, or to play against the nearby sea airline.

For a long time, the Japanese also took advantage of this to sharpen their pilots.

The pilots of both sides who grew up as rookies are not strangers, and they often carry death gifts from the other pilot. Yu Guanglei was lying in the hospital and met the injuries of his fiancée, who was a nurse, when he played against Japan HNA.

Similarly, there are more traces of the Japanese pilot's encounter with the cat's claw of the Chinese Hell Cat, not only on the body, but also on the soul.

This is also one of the reasons why the Japanese did not actively dispatch aircraft carriers from the beginning. It is necessary to eliminate the hidden danger of the Huaxia aircraft carriers before the Japanese have the courage to attack other warships in the Huaxia.

If it weren't for the fact that in order to deal with the Huaxia opponent, half of the ultra-zero fighters were still retained, and the strength of three aircraft carriers was supported, I am afraid that the Japanese would have to retreat a little bit from even attacking the Huaxia aircraft carrier.

Of course, they didn't know that the performance of the second-class Red Alert aircraft carrier was somewhat similar to that of the Midway-class. Even after the strengthening of air defense, the number of fighters was somewhat on the small side, reaching 100 units.

In order to ensure the safety of the aircraft carrier formation in the first place, there are two fighter squadrons equipped with Hellcats in the air wing of an aircraft carrier, with a total of 50 fighters.

That is, one second-class aircraft carrier is enough to withstand the attack of three Japanese Hawks.

The ignorant are fearless. As soon as the Japanese discovered the Huaxia aircraft carrier, they immediately exhausted their main forces.

When the two sides clashed, these Japanese pilots were even more fanatical and rushed forward desperately.

"Grandpa, I'm here, little devils!" Wang Lei and more than a dozen hellcats behind him shot out six 5-inch HVARs rockets on the wings in one go, and the rockets that burst into the sky not only instantly exploded the three super zeros, but also broke up the oncoming Japanese super zero fighter group.

He pushed the throttle to the maximum, and a sharp dive swooped down on a super-zero fighter that was diving and evading.

In terms of hard work, the Chinese pilots are no worse than the brainwashed Japanese.

The swooping hellcat quickly bit the Hyperzero.

The ultra-zero fighter is improved on the basis of the Zero fighter, with a replacement engine, increased power, and thicker armor, but there is not much room for improvement on the basis of the Zero, and some of the advantages and disadvantages of the Zero are still retained.

The hovering performance is good, but when diving, the performance is still slightly inferior to the Wildcat, let alone the Hellcat.

The two sides dived from an altitude of more than 6,000 meters to a distance of more than 1,000 meters, and Wang Lei, who had been biting each other, ignored the slight dizziness that rushed to his head, and fired six 12.7mm machine guns, and finally got entangled with the super zero.

The armor of the ultra-zero fighter is always based on the Zero, and compared with the armor of the fighters of Lao Maozi and the Americans, it is still a thin skin. After being shot one after another, he finally couldn't resist it, and suddenly exploded into a fireball in the sky more than 500 meters above sea level.

And above it, there were still two 99 ships dragging black smoke into the rough sea.

In the distance, there was the sound of fires and the roar of engines of hundreds of warplanes.
