Chapter 873 Tiger! Tiger! Tiger (Part 2)
"Tell the boys! Those damn yellow rats have been found by us. Their current mission is to send these bitch-raising bastards to hell!!" Lieutenant General Commander William Frederick, Lieutenant General of the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier, Lieutenant General, Jr.
Halsey roared wildly at the generals under his command.
"I only have three requirements for you: first, kill the Japanese devils! Second, kill the Japanese devils! Third, kill more Japanese devils!!"
"Yes! Sir! Kill more Japanese devils!!" The entire fleet was infected by the crazy roar of the lieutenant general, and the officers rushed to their combat posts.
A buzzing roar sounded on the deck of the plane, and all the fighter planes were hung with live ammunition soared into the sky under the command of the deck commander!
William Frederick Halsey, a veteran navy who participated in the war in World War I. He started as the captain of the USS Sor destroyer in 1918, and after World War I, he won the highest award from the U.S. Navy Department.
Medal of Level - Naval Cross Medal!
"I'm a bull! I don't care why those damn or lowly yellow-skinned mice sneaked into us, but as a soldier, all I have to do is to let the damn Japanese be used in hell after the war!!"
Halsey roared at his adjutant: "Tell Washington, I don't plan to let these yellow mice run away from here! Since they have attacked American ports, I will ask them to pay the price!!"
"Yes! Sir!" the adjutant responded loudly, and then reported the situation here to Washington through the report.
The telegram soon arrived in Washington with the radio waves. Marshall, who was waiting for the news nervously, smiled helplessly after receiving the telegram.
"What's wrong?!" Looking at Marshall's laughable expression, Roosevelt smiled and answered the telegram. But when he saw the telegram, he could only smile bitterly with Marshall.
When Halsey was ordered to command the destroyer "Fruse", Franklin Roosevelt also engaged in sea surveying on the warship at that time.
The two of them hit it off at first sight, because they had a good relationship. Although Halsey is known as a bull, he also has another nickname called "Sailor's Admiral".
This means that Halsey never cared about his military rank and was always able to get along with the sailors. Therefore, he got this nickname.
"Halsey is old friends with me, and I also know his temper." Roosevelt shrugged helplessly and said to Marshall: "If he has a temper and makes a decision, it will be difficult for us to make him
Retrieve it..."
Seeing Sanpao standing by the side with curious look, Roosevelt handed the telegram to Pao Master with a wry smile. It doesn't matter if Pao Master doesn't understand, there is an interpreter next to him!
This was a rare courtesy, both Roosevelt and Marshall took it for granted at this time. Now they were convinced. This bearded man, who didn't know a few words, really had an unusual war sensitivity.
Marshall even wondered. If I had heard the Cannon Master before, would Pearl Harbor not have that great losses?! According to the latest report, four battleships in Pearl Harbor have been sunk now.
More than 300 fighter jets were destroyed and casualties were counted. This is definitely a huge blow to the United States.
"Hahaha... This Halsey is such a man! Not bad! When he comes back, I have to find a whole bunch of cups! Hahaha..." After hearing the translator's words, Master Pao burst into laughter.
Then, he patted Marshall's shoulder and said, "Old Ma, Ruici, don't worry. In my opinion, the one who can sneak three thousand miles into a sneak attack must be an extremely cautious guy."
"There is an advantage for such a person, that is, he does not make mistakes easily. But he also has a huge disadvantage, that is, he does not dare to take risks." After a pause, the cannon master said to the two: "Now he is sneaking into the hinterland. It can be said that he was accidentally attacking.
He will be trapped in a siege. In this case, once they know that they have been discovered, their first reaction will definitely be to withdraw!"
"So, according to my opinion, Halsey and the others are not very dangerous." As he said, the cannon took the telegram and put it on the table and said, "However, it is better to mobilize other fleets to support it. It is better to form an encirclement,
I guess the first batch of Japanese attacks have returned to the aircraft carrier, but they certainly have not refueled the bullets."
"The second batch of planes is still in Pearl Harbor, which means that now is the time for their weakest defense. If you don't get any interest back at this time, how can you be worthy of the brothers who died in Pearl Harbor?!"
Upon hearing this, Roosevelt couldn't help but turn his head to look at Marshall. To be honest, he was a little moved. It was not Roosevelt and American style to be beaten and not fight back.
But Roosevelt believes that Marshall has more say in this specific war.
"His Excellency President, my advice is the same as General Tu." Marshall did not answer Roosevelt directly, but thought for a while before saying to Roosevelt: "At the same time, I suggest that our local B-17 fighter jets also go to Pearl Harbor! Fully armed
, even if it cannot be supported, it can be used for subsequent defense..."
Marshall said seven or eight suggestions in one breath, while Roosevelt passed them all without hesitation.
These orders were then drawn into telegrams and sent to various places with the radio waves. The entire United States took action, and countless planes and warships left their airports and ports.
A series of accidents are dazzling, and people are stunned to watch the murderous soldiers rush out of their homes or barracks and head towards the troops.
"His Excellency President, I think our West Coast coastline is too long and difficult to defend. Therefore, I ask the President to order the preparation of defense of the Rockies immediately. If it cannot be stopped there, once the Japanese army boarded the 6th battle, it will continue to attack the Japanese army.
To Chicago…”
After Marshall issued the order, he began to study strategic issues again. It has to be said that this issue is the big shortcomings of Sanpao, who is not a professional background.
The cannon master can roughly judge the enemy's offensive target based on the direction of the battle, judge their position based on the enemy's offensive situation, and even make precise decisions on the battlefield temporarily.
But if he wanted to think about Marshall's overall strategic structure, Pao Ye had to be blind. Therefore, now Sanpao Slaughtered Tigers is very interested in listening to Marshall's report.
And Roosevelt, who didn't know much about this strategic structure problem, had a lot of knowledge about Roosevelt. He stroked his pen: Pass! Just do it as you do.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!! US planes appear! We have US planes appear!!" A shrill howl sounded from the Japanese warship, and Natsushi Nagashi rushed out of his office in a few seconds.
He watched with a telescope.
But he saw vaguely seeing thirty fighter jets rushing towards the fleet in the sky. Nan Yunzhong looked ugly. He didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly. He didn't even know how he was exposed.
"Let the fighter take off immediately, these aircraft will never be able to go back." Nagashiyama said in a deep voice: "Our location may have been exposed, but as long as these aircraft are destroyed and the channel is changed, the fleet can be saved!"
The commander of the Second Air Force, Major General Yamaguchi Tatsume, couldn't help but be anxious when he heard this and said to Kazuo Yuushi: "Commander, our second wave of fighter jets has not come back yet. If we change the channel, how will they find us?!
”
"I can't care about that much!" Natsuyun Tada said ruthlessly: "We are now in the hinterland of the US military in the Pacific! According to the report of Mitsuoji Futa, the American aircraft carrier is not in Pearl Harbor at all!"
"In other words, we are likely to have been discovered by the US aircraft carrier! If we do not withdraw from their attack range, how long do you think we can support here?!" Natsuyu Tadao looked at Yamaguchi with a pale face:
"Do you want our fleet to be wiped out here?!"
Yamaguchi Tatsuki let Nagashima say this, and he could only bow deeply and stop talking.
During the conversation between the two, the planes on six aircraft carriers began to be pushed out to fill up the oil in panic and hang up the live ammunition. After working for a while, they waited for the US plane to approach before they took off from the deck in a panic to meet the enemy.
.
"Buzz buzz...Woo~~" With a roar, 43 Zero fighters soared into the sky under Bangumao's command! Fighting towards the US fighter jets!
Halsey dispatched thirty F4F Wildcat fighters, a carrier-based aircraft developed in 1936. Due to premonitions of possible changes in the European war, the US side asked Grumman to speed up its research.
Finally, in 1937, the US Navy was able to replace this new carrier-based aircraft. The Wildcat was equipped with a Pratt & Whitney R-183o-36 dual-Hornet air-cooled motor with a horsepower of up to 12oo, and its main attack method was 6 machine guns.
!
This time, they were fully armed and rushed towards the Japanese fleet with their rage!
"Woo~~~" Amid the strange roar of the plane, the fighter planes from both sides suddenly killed and formed a group. Although the Japanese fighter planes had no choice but to take the National Weapons of the National Defense Forces on the battlefields of China and Korea, they lacked practical experience in dealing with them.
The US military, which still fights according to the ideas of World War I, is at ease.
"TuTuTuTu..." As the Zero machine gun roared, a wild cat kept hovering in black smoke. His tail was hit by the Zero, and the Zero was in a low altitude with his light fuselage
Continuously dealing with the wild cats.
Compared with its opponent's Japanese Navy Zero ship fighter, the f4f wildcat has a low performance inferior to zero battles in terms of slewing radius, making it difficult to compete with it in the fight.
But the wildcats also have their own advantages! They have strong structure, strong firepower, good dive performance... etc., both sides can be said to be matched by chess. But what is stronger than the US military is that the Japanese pilots are: their rich practical experience.
