On the deck of the Japanese Yamato-class battleship, Task Force Commander Ren Takenaka looked far into the distance with a telescope, his expression looking particularly solemn.
Task force chief of staff Colonel Nakatani Tsukasa and Yamato battleship captain Hidetori Miyazato were standing on both sides of the station. Both of them were looking into the distance with telescopes.
Both of them also frowned and looked extremely ugly!
??????????????????????????????????????????????????: Smoke billows and flames rise into the sky on land dozens of kilometers away, while rumbles of gunfire and explosions continue to be heard.
Although they were too far away to see the specific battle situation clearly, the urgent rescue telegram sent from the army and the fierce scene in front of them all told the old devils that the situation was very serious. The Japanese Burmese Expeditionary Force was suffering from a powerful counterattack by the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Falling into an extremely dangerous situation!
Especially in the distant sky, there were a large number of fighter groups from both sides flying up and down and fighting fiercely, which made several old devils feel a strong threat.
Due to the establishment of an independent air force service, the aviation regiment equipped by the Japanese Navy has been greatly weakened. The entire task force is equipped with only more than 70 carrier-based aircraft.
Although the anti-aircraft firepower of this task force is really not weak, especially the flagship Yamato battleship, it is not only rough-skinned but also equipped with 156 25mm anti-aircraft guns, it can be said that it is full of thorns.
Coupled with the anti-aircraft firepower of two King Kong-class battleships and more than a dozen cruisers and destroyers, the naval task force can handle dozens or even hundreds of combat aircraft.
But the old devils know very well that if the Chinese Air Force makes a desperate effort to concentrate all combat aircraft to cause trouble, this seemingly powerful task force will have to peel off its skin.
Because the seemingly powerful air defense firepower and carrier-based aircraft formations have no way to deal with the high-intensity saturation bombing of the large number and excellent performance of the Chinese combat aircraft fleet.
Therefore, before the Japanese Air Force was unable to control the air superiority over Myanmar, the task force had been very cautious and did not dare to approach the offshore waters around Yangon too closely.
But the situation suddenly changed, and the Myanmar Expeditionary Force, which originally thought it was about to win a complete victory, suddenly encountered a large-scale strategic counterattack by the Chinese Expeditionary Force!
Overnight, the Myanmar Expeditionary Force, which has more than 400,000 strong troops, was in a state of emergency and faced the danger of annihilation!
Today, as a last resort, under Yoshijiro Umezu¡¯s repeated strong demands, the Myanmar task force had to take risks to come to the rescue!
"Baga! Are the Army people all a bunch of idiots? Just yesterday Yoshijiro Umezu was telling me that in at most three days, Myanmar's troops could arrive in Yangon and completely conquer the coastal defense lines around the Sitang River!
We are still asking the Imperial Navy to cooperate with the Army to attack the Chinese Expeditionary Force head-on, capture Tonggu and Yangon in the shortest possible time, and then push and crush them all the way along the Irrawaddy River! "
Looking at everything in front of him, Takenaka Ren was really angry.
The Chinese Expeditionary Force that was promised is no longer available. It was promised that Yangon would be captured immediately and the best home port in Southeast Asia would be built for the task force. All of this was in vain. The Navy had to take huge risks to wipe the Army¡¯s butt. !
The Japanese Navy and the Japanese Army have always had deep conflicts and looked down upon each other. This time, a series of cunning operations by the Burmese dispatched troops made Ren Takenaka feel like he was wearing nothing and he was dragged into an extremely dangerous situation. !
The uncle can tolerate it, but the aunt cannot. Ren Takenaka¡¯s resentment was so high that he really wanted to just give up and leave!
Chief of Staff Colonel Nakatani Tsukasa responded: "Yeah, how could it become so bad just overnight! I really don't know what Umezu Yoshijiro is doing. The Imperial Army has such a huge advantage, but it will end up in such a situation!"
At this moment, a Japanese naval communications staff officer ran up to Zhu Zhonglian, paused and saluted:
"Reporting to your Excellency, Commander, the vanguard of the fleet is about to enter the estuary of the Xidang River and enter the anti-artillery range along the Chinese coast!"
"Expand the formation according to the original combat plan and enter combat status!"
Ren Takenaka nodded lightly, and then gave another uneasy instruction: "The submarine force and destroyers must be prepared for anti-submarine warfare. The Imperial Navy must not make the same stupid mistake as the Army!"
Current anti-submarine methods mainly include surface ship anti-submarine and aviation anti-submarine. Anti-submarine means include sonobuoys, radars, searchlights, etc.
Due to its lack of resources and its blind pursuit of the theory of giant ships and artillery, Japan spends its limited resources on manufacturing battleships and aircraft carriers. Its destroyers and cruisers either use old ships and serve overage, or their technical costs have shrunk greatly. The development of anti-submarine is far behind that of Britain and the United States. and other countries.
?So far, the Japanese army has not developed an anti-submarine aircraft. The sonar and radar equipped can only detect a few hundred meters, which is not as far as the naked eye, and often malfunction.
However, the Japanese submarine force is not weak, and can definitely serve as an anti-submarine vanguard and explore the way for the naval force!
"Hai!"
The Communications Staff Officer of the Japanese Navy immediately took the order and left.
Ren Takenaka turned to look at the captain of the Yamato battleship Hidenori Miyazato, and said in a deep voice: "Miyazato-kun, the Yamato battleship is the pride of the Yamato nation and is one of the strongest battleships in the world.
¡°Then we still need your outstanding performance to let those damn Chinese troops taste the horror of the Yamato nation¡¯s anger. First knock out all those damn coastal defense guns!
At the same time, it also makes those idiots in the Imperial Army understand that they are nothing without the help of the Imperial Navy! "
"Hai!"
Hidden Miyazato ordered his order very excitedly. Due to caution and prudence, the Yamato battleship has really not participated in many battles so far. This time it is just time to show off its skills!
"Military seat, the Japanese submarine force has arrived! It is about to enter the effective range of our army, please give instructions!"
After remaining silent for more than an hour, the Huben submarine detachment finally ushered in the Japanese fleet.
"These idiots are really cautious enough to use submarine troops to clear the way!"
Liu Qiang frowned slightly. He originally wanted to squat in the grass and kill a few big guys first. But he didn't expect that the Japanese navy would not give him this chance at all.
The best weapon against an attack-type vehicle is an attack vehicle of the same type. The same submarine is also an extremely effective anti-submarine method against submarines.
Because of the depth environment of ocean sonar, submarines can detect submarines at a longer distance than ships on the sea, and the combat distance is also very long, and they have good long-range attack methods, so they are more effective than ships on the sea.
Historically, the reason why surface ships sank more submarines was because at that time, submarines were special warfare weapons. They often attacked the fleet alone and did not perform defensive tasks. Therefore, ordinary submarines could not see each other, and of course there was no fighting. recorded.
"In this case, the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road, so let's start working!"
After thinking for a while, Liu Qiang made a decisive decision and issued the order: "Send my order, each boat will enter a free attack state, give me a hard hit!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
