Chapter 288 The Battle of Sandu Ao(2/3)
Working on the ship, this command room has excellent decorations, and the materials and craftsmen are specially supplied by the royal suppliers.
Not only that, the Emperor's high-speed battleship was identified as the Imperial Commander from the very beginning, with the strongest radar and computer accusation center to date.
Yan Hau Wah has not slept yet, and he didn't know when he would wait until he discovered the news about the Japanese fleet.
Because wars may occur in this sea area at any time, Yan Hau-wah cannot call others to the command center to discuss matters at this time. Only the chief chief of staff of the Southern Fleet Jiang Yu and the teaching chief Lu Liepei can accompany him to wait for news.
.
Chief of Staff Jiang Yu was also a bomber captain during World War I, but he served in the Navy for fifteen years. Among the three, he was the youngest and the youngest. He was the first to be the fourth phase of Xi'an Aviation Non-commissioned Officer School.
graduate.
In the Navy, the youngest senior chief of staff of the Southern Fleet is recognized as an expert in aircraft carrier tactical research. Many important improvement opinions required in the design process of Northeast-class aircraft carriers were pointed out through tactical research.
Among the three most famous theoretical works on strategy and tactics in aircraft carriers, two were written by him.
With such a low qualification, he is not from the Northeastern and Central. It is indeed rare to be able to become a major general at such an age and serve as the chief chief of staff of the Southern Fleet, but it also proves that his talent is definitely not an ordinary person.
comparable.
Jiang Yu also made a very important contribution, that is, he converted several large submarines that were originally judged as worthless by the Navy into patrol submarines. Although this submarine does not have much effect or value, during this period of time
However, they are all patrolling and guarding the seas between China and Japan, because although these are easily discovered during the day, large submarines with high navigation noise and short submarine time and inflexible combat can be equipped with more powerful warning radars.
The six large submarines, numbered B011-001 to 006, also have a displacement of nearly 3,000 tons on the baseline. After a lot of testing and simulation exercises, it was finally found that this large submarine is not currently suitable for practical combat.
Because it is too easy to detect, high-power V-type diesel engines that are matched to increase range also have oil pump problems that have not been improved, making it difficult to solve the noise problem.
Although all the submarines had severe noise at that time, the noise of such large submarines was really not tolerated. Just when the Navy decided to give up the development and service of large submarines, the emergence of radar saved this large submarine.
After improvement, large submarines of this level began to be equipped with more powerful radars. When they detect their opponents, they will dive into the water in advance. They usually stay underwater for 3-10 meters at night to avoid the opponent's warning radar.
Hidden under the sea to detect and track opponents.
In the world of aircraft carrier-centricism, such submarines will also be required to arrive in the sea in advance, and use high-power warning radar to discover the opponent first while the opponent cannot detect it, and inform the aircraft carriers in the distance via radio.
Time slips by in seconds.
Teaching Chang Lu Liepei went out to observe the situation of the troops. He did not return to the command center room until 11 o'clock in the evening. Jiang Yu sat silently in front of the map smoking. The ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and Yan Hau-wah walked around the command center room.
Walking around, there are only some staff officers who don’t know much about it. They are also searching for data and checking some paperwork, and some are still waiting for tomorrow’s National Day holiday.
...
In the waters 120 nautical miles north of Kume Island.
A large group of Japanese naval fleets was sailing in the dark ocean. A patrol submarine B011-003 was lurking in the trench area about 20 nautical miles away. They tried to lock the fleet through a warning radar to determine their data.
Check with the expected Japanese Navy.
Everything fits very well.
About half an hour later, the No. 004 patrol submarine, which cooperated with B011-003 in the Wenzhou waters, also discovered the radar wave signal of the fleet. The two submarines cooperated with each other to collect as much radar information as possible, and
At this time, both the Central Navy and the Central Navy Southern Fleet Command received telegrams.
At about the same time, or about 10 minutes after the Navy received the wireless telegram, the Central Ministry of Defense and the Air Force Command also received telegrams one after another. After confirming that it was correct, it was the General Office of the Inner Court.
That night, Shu Fangde and Xu Wei, director of the General Staff of the National Bureau of the Neighborhood, did not sleep all night.
Now, only the Japanese Navy thought everything was normal, but only they thought everything was like this without anyone noticing.
They have bypassed the radar stations located in Taipei and Diaoyu Islands and maintained a safety line of about 40 kilometers, but at this distance, even if there are no large patrol aircraft, the Empire still has other ways to discover them.
The alert radar will not be discovered by the opponent.
The Japanese Navy did not find that the two submarines had a long tracking of them.
In the best combat area, another large submarine B011-006, which was transferred from the Hong Kong Naval Base, was waiting there. In order to reconnaise the movements of the Japanese Navy, the Empire arranged all six patrol submarines that could be called in the Sino-Japanese ocean.
Between the areas, No. 005 was drawn back from the Indian Ocean Naval Base.
Light gradually appeared in the sky.
At around 5 a.m., Tadaichi Nagamoto led his First Air Combined Fleet to finally arrive at the designated combat area. At about 185 nautical miles apart from Sanduao Naval Base, five aircraft carriers that Japan could dispatch gathered here, all of which were all aircraft carriers.
The deck was extremely busy, the fighter's engines started one after another, and the propellers made a torn roar in the sea breeze before dawn.
Yamamoto Iroku is a clever gambler. Although the navy does not regard aircraft carriers as the most precious wealth of the Imperial Japanese Navy, it is unwilling to send battleships and more ships to escort it. Some people even say that the more fleets, the more they are.
The higher the probability of discovery.
But Yamamoto Izuru didn't think so.
He felt that if he could be discovered, four ships would be discovered, forty ships would be discovered, but if they could not be discovered, four ships would not be discovered, and forty ships would not be discovered, and if the attack was not smooth,
They also need more fleet cover to retreat
He boldly and heroically formed a huge First Air Combined Fleet with five aircraft carriers, three battleships, six cruisers, and four destroyers to be responsible for the sneak attack on the Sanduao Naval Base.
He almost made a bet, if China's radar technology did not make any breakthrough, if China's intelligence network was smaller in Japan.
Under command, 73 96 ships and 14 00 wars took off one after another from the decks of five aircraft carriers, followed by 114 97 ships. The huge group of aircraft flew towards the predetermined direction, pressing black pressure
It's like a black crow who shows death in the sky.
Under the sunlight at dawn, they left dark shadows before passing over the sea.
Lieutenant General Tadic Nakamoto looked into the distance on the bridge of the command ship. Through his telescope, he stared at the roaring group of fighter jets. His heart was full of hope, and fear and deep worries were buried. He put down his telescope.
Afterwards, the warriors who were leaving in awe gave a silent military salute that would not respond.
His heart can shine on the sun and the moon.
The duty of a soldier is war.
Even though he knew that this war was extremely likely to be defeated, he was loyal to the Emperor and the Great Japanese Empire. His heart was so pure and clear, as if it was the water by the sea, clearly seeing the sand, and he was willing to serve the empire.
He devoted everything to the Emperor and was willing to turn into the clouds of Nasaka.
Under his kind appearance, under the uniform of the fair navy general, the loyalty of this moment will never change.
He never liked the madness of fascism. He was just a soldier who pursued victory and was willing to shed every drop of blood for the future of the Yamato nation.
It's just that he made two mistakes.
He still did not study aircraft carrier tactics more thoroughly. In the era of aircraft carriers, the most taboo thing about aircraft carriers is submarines. Aircraft carriers are a huge maneuver combat force, and submarines can always lie in the depths of the ocean to find the figure of aircraft carriers.
His first mistake was that he did not do all his efforts to fight the submarine, but it was not his fault, because during the long dark night, Japan had no patrol aircraft that could detect submarines at night, but he still miscalculated his opponents.
The radar performance of him was so great that he believed that his fleet could not be discovered until this moment.
His second mistake was the failure to increase monitoring of radio waves.
From the discovery of Japan's first aircraft carrier joint fleet to the launch of the first wave of attacks, the two large patrol and alert submarines responsible for tracking and detecting the Japanese fleet only sent out four radio telegrams. Although the Japanese army intercepted one of them, they mistakenly believed it was Taiwan Island.
radio waves without paying attention to them.
If the First Aircraft Carrier Combined Fleet could take this matter carefully and guess that a submarine found their traces, they might have been more cautious.
History has no if.
Military also has no if.
While Japan's carrier-based aircraft group took off, more than 70 J-4 blitzkriegs took off at the Changle Military Airport in Fuzhou. This fighter that was unable to become a carrier-based aircraft due to its early design weight was too high. It has the Army
The status of absolute ace has undergone many modifications and replacements since its service in 1933, and the one installed at the Changle Military Airport in Fuzhou belongs to J-4D.
In comparison of absolute parameters, the J-4 Blitzf has no absolute advantage over the Japanese 96 ship attack, but in combat, the driving characteristics and the stability of the aircraft and the overall performance will be very important.
The absolute difference in power between the two sides is even more a generation difference.
Even if it is a fighter of the same generation, carrier-based aircraft will always suffer even more when facing land-based fighters.
The Chinese Air Force has three divisions that have counterattack power in this area, which is itself the biggest failure of Japan's sneak attack tactics. The Sanduao Naval Base is not Pearl Harbor. This is the entire essence of the Chinese Navy, and there are many air forces responsible for assisting defense.
With three divisions, the Jiaxing Air Force Base, which is located at the farthest, will dispatch J-5 Tiger Shark fighters to launch strikes against the Japanese aircraft carrier group together with the J-4 blitz fighters and G3E dive torpedo bombers from Fuzhou Air Force Base.
This is a naval battle, and it is also a purer air battle.
The radar station of Sanduao Naval Base has detected a Japanese fleet group, and large-scale carrier-based aircraft rushed over like a huge crowd. At Sanduao Naval Base, there are about 110 J-3\303 carrier-based fighter jets.
In the shortest time, all the ships guarding the naval base set sail one after another. The Heilongjiang aircraft carrier, which was ranked outside, first left the port under the protection of two escort cruisers.
In Fuzhou Port, the Fuzhou Shipbuilding Training Ship, which is used for daily training, also began to leave the port, and the trainees of the training ship were also allowed to fly fighter jets to participate in the war. At this time, the Japanese aircraft carrier joint fleet could no longer escape, and the naval base had already been opened.
Siren, all fighter planes fly in the sky that belongs to them.
When they fly in the sky, they have life.
They have their own names and experiences, like silent metal legends flying in the sky of war.
The Japanese plan to attack Sanduao Naval Base is code-named "Yu Lion", and the key to success of the "Yu Lion Battle" is sudden. If the other party is prepared, the battle will inevitably be defeated. If the Taipei Air Force Base is
Including the Jiaxing Air Force Base, the Imperial Air Force has four air divisions that can counterattack the Japanese joint fleet, three of which are ace air divisions with combat capabilities against ships, especially the three air divisions in Jiaxing, Fuzhou and Taipei are equipped.
There is the J-5 Tiger Shark fighter, which has excellent anti-ship capabilities and has good fighting and dive performance. Although it is a heavy fighter, it is relatively efficient in combat performance of low-altitude torpedoes, but it is in dive airdrop
Heavy bombs are definitely at the world's leading level, while Taipei and Fuzhou Air Force Bases are equipped with G3E torpedo bombers at the same time.
Yamamoto Iroku chose the best combat area as much as possible, trying to avoid the strongest Jiaxing Air Force Base, and hoped that the Chinese Air Force would respond slowly and eliminate as many warships as possible before the air force was dispatched.
, and then returned to the air force in Okinawa's garrison to conduct cooperative defense operations.
