    On December 7, 1941, the Japanese Navy shamelessly attacked Pearl Harbor, the base of the U.S. Pacific Navy Fleet.  Three ships were injured, three cruisers and three destroyers were sunk, and more than ten ships of various types were damaged, and more than 300 aircraft were destroyed or damaged.  A total of more than 4,000 American soldiers were killed or injured in the attack.

    In just 90 minutes, the Japanese Navy crippled the U.S. Pacific Fleet that once dominated half of the Pacific Ocean. For half a year, the U.S. Navy no longer dared to compete with the Japanese Navy in the Pacific Ocean, and its southward strategy was temporarily lifted.  worries.

    However, the despicable behavior of the Japanese in undeclared war also thoroughly angered the Americans. On the second day after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States officially declared war on Japan, Germany, and Italy, and it has since completely turned to the camp of the Allies.  At the same time, President Franklin of the United States?  d?  In order to inspire the people and boost the morale of the US military, Roosevelt ordered the military to organize a retaliatory strike against Japan.

    Speaking of retaliation, what could be a more direct and better way to boost the morale of the army and the people than bombing the enemy's capital?  So the air raid on Tokyo was officially launched.

    In the US Navy Under Chief of Staff Francis?  Under the suggestion and organization of Colonel Rolle, the retired U.S. Army Aviation Lieutenant Colonel James?  Harold?  Doolittle put on his military uniform again and was responsible for the formulation and implementation of the entire plan. Then a group of young men carefully selected from the U.S. Army Air Corps were secretly sent to the Eglin fear base in Florida, where they accepted  The three-week high-intensity training has completed the training of subjects such as flying a B25 bomber on an aircraft carrier, low-altitude flight, night flight, low-altitude bombing, and water navigation.

    On April 6, 1942, under the leadership of the Hornet aircraft carrier carrying 16 B-25 bombers, the Eighteenth Mobile Fleet of the US Navy set sail from San Francisco.  The sixteenth Mobile Fleet with the Enterprise aircraft carrier as the core converges.

    This mobile fleet is under the command of the famous U.S. Navy Vice Admiral "Barrel" William?  Under Halsey's command, sailed west.

    When formulating the mission, Doolittle and all the pilots already knew that because large aircraft such as the B25 cannot land on the aircraft carrier, they cannot return during operations. According to the plan, they will continue to fly to Japan after bombing the Japanese mainland.  Flying southwest to the coast of China, there are several airports in Zhejiang that are still under the control of the Central Army for them to land. After filling up their fuel, they will fly to Chongqing and then return to the United States.

    In order to allow the plane to have enough fuel to fly to the coast of China, after the fleet set off, Doolittle took the crew members to remove all the extra loads on the b25 including the tail machine gun.

    In the early morning of April 18th, maybe that old guy got up early that day. When the mobile fleet was 1,200 kilometers away from the Japanese mainland and 310 kilometers away from the original take-off place, it was discovered by the Japanese patrol ship Nitto Maru 23. Although the U.S. military  The warship sank the patrol boat immediately, but it was too late, and it had already sent a radio warning to the mainland.

    Facing the imminent swarm of Japanese fleets, Lieutenant General Halsey, who was worried that the mobile fleet might be destroyed, decided to take off the b25 bomber ahead of schedule.

    Therefore, Lieutenant Colonel Doolittle led 79 U.S. Army Airmen on missions. Knowing that the aircraft might not be able to reach the coastal areas of China as planned due to insufficient fuel, they still resolutely drove 16 B25s that had undergone weight reduction again.  The bombers scrambled to Tokyo.

    Before taking off, Lieutenant Colonel Doolittle hung the "Friendship" medals awarded by the Japanese government to the American officers and soldiers in front of the station on the tails of the five bombs, telling everyone clearly that he wanted to use the bombs to give away all these false medals  back to their hometown.

    Knowing that the action is risky, but still acting in accordance with the military order, this is the real soldier, strong, the wind is bleak, the water is cold, the strong man, everyone hopes that they are safe.

    Six hours later, 16 B-25 bombers arrived over Japan one after another and bombed the big Japanese cities of Tokyo, Yokohama, Yokosuka, Nagoya, Kobe and Osaka, destroying 16 military industrial targets in total, although they were attacked by the Japanese army.  Anti-aircraft fire and fighter jets intercepted, but none of the bombers were shot down.

    After the bombing, except for one b-25 that had to go to Vladivostok due to excessive fuel consumption, the remaining 15 bombers, all according to the scheduled plan, flew southwest along the southern coast of Japan to eastern China, where the airport  Lighthouses will light up to guide them down.

    But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Although they reached the eastern coast of China, because of lack of fuel, coupled with nightfall and weather changes, the 15 bombers without ground guidance quickly lost their way in heavy rain and dense fog.  many planesLoose, under the frantic pursuit of the pursuit, the exhausted spy company was quickly caught up.

    Just when Stark thought that they were really going to be wiped out by the Japanese army this time, the company commander of the secret service company sent out troops to cover their evacuation again, and this time it was the company commander himself who led the team.

    Just as Stark and the crew retreated with a heavy heart, they were stopped by several soldiers with strange clothes and weapons.

    Under the leadership of these people, they returned to the battle site just now. To their surprise, all the vicious Japanese troops just now were wiped out, and the soldiers of the secret service company did not seem to suffer too much loss.  .

    And all of this is because of the sudden appearance of that mysterious army. They are like saviors, saving the secret service company and the Americans like themselves.

    What frightened Stark was that the commander of the mysterious force was staring at his eyes, as if seeing a treasure.  There was still a weird smile on his face, causing Stark, who was in the open state, to subconsciously clamp his ass.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
