Air supremacy is a term that has appeared again since World War I. It is precisely because of the emergence of this term that the history of world war has once again changed.
War has become more cruel, and there is an additional mode of war in the world. Joint operations between the navy, land and air forces place higher demands on military personnel from all over the world, and also impose greater mortality rates.
Now China and Germany are competing with the joint air forces of the two countries in the sky over the three Gili Islands.
Six thousand Chinese pilots were continuously transported to the Will by Liu Cuigang on transport planes.
Although 6,000 pilots were assembled within two hours, it was impossible to transport them all within one day.
After all, how many passenger planes are needed to carry 6,000 pilots to Europe at one time? Anyway, it is simply impossible to assemble them in such a short period of time.
This is also the reason why Liu Cuigang said that fifty passenger planes would be mobilized within two hours.
Fifty passenger planes are not enough to carry 6,000 pilots.
Chinese pilots are being dispatched to the skies over the Gili Islands of China, but the war near the island of Papua Guinea is about to begin.
At four o'clock in the morning on April 15, 1943, Sorong, the northwest port of Papua Guinea.
Sorong is a port city in the northwestern part of Papua Guinea, but it can also be said to be one of the ports that competes with the Chinese provinces of East Malaysia or Northern Malaysia.
There is also a larger island in the north of Sorong Port - Weigu Island.
The distance between Weigu Island and Suolong Island is not far. On the contrary, they appear to be very close.
And in such a very close position, on the sea between Weigu Island and Sorong Port, there is a fleet quietly parked here.
Needless to say, this fleet is naturally Cao Guosheng who came from Surabaya to carry out the offensive mission.
?This is the man who once again carried out the raid on Citigroup. He commanded the last raid on Citibank. Later, Chen Jiliang seemed to feel that he had experience in sneak attacks, so he asked him to take on this task again.
"Commander, when we crossed the strait just now, I was really scared to death. I was afraid that a Citizen warship would suddenly appear. Then our plan would be forced to proceed at night."
A staff officer stood behind Cao Guosheng and said with lingering fear.
"Scared to death? Where are you? There will be no shortage of Army and Aircraft aircraft of Citigroup in this generation, but they will not have too many navy.
¡°Otherwise, our two countries would not be so peaceful now. "
Citigroup does not want to provoke China at this time, because then it will be fighting on both sides. No matter how strong his national power is, he will not be able to bear the challenge of facing two powerful countries: the Asian hegemon and the European hegemon.
Therefore, the northwest area of ??Papua Guinea, whether it is the Banda Sea, the Sailan Sea or the Halmahera Sea, are sea areas that China is very concerned about, and it is surrounded by Chinese territory or It's the sea area.
Citigroup knows that if it sends too many naval forces here, or even cruisers, the relationship between China and Citigroup will immediately return to the stage of constant friction.
So later on, Citigroup did not dispatch naval forces like it did here. The main force dispatched here was land and aviation forces.
Their Army Airlines has a large number of aircraft stationed here.
"Commander, when will we fight?"
The staff officer standing behind him asked.
"Fight? Why are you in a hurry? Go ask Ren Ran, commander of the 1st Marine Division, and ask him when he can come to my place."
Although the Marine Corps is also under the jurisdiction of the Navy, it should still obey his command in this operation.
But his own family knows his own affairs. Cao Guosheng's own strength is naval warfare, or sea and land support, but he doesn't know much about land warfare.
And although the Marine Corps is under the jurisdiction of the Navy, they are also an independent branch of the Navy. They have their own commander Song Xiancheng.
If he gives blind orders, regardless of whether he has exceeded his authority or not, if the war is lost due to his own orders, he will probably be blamed for his death.
The purpose of this raid is to make the Marine Corps have a good start and make a good start.
Just when Cao Guosheng was standing outside the command tower on the bridge, looking at the night and preparing to enjoy the sunrise, a man carrying a major general on his shouldersThe young man with the title came over.
"Commander Cao!"
Needless to say, this person is Ren Ran, the commander of the 1st Marine Division.
"Commander Ren, are your troops ready?"
Cao Guosheng turned to look at Ren Ran standing beside him and asked.
"Of course! My soldiers are ready to attack at any time."
After Ren Ran finished speaking, he looked at the sky, then raised his wrist and looked at his watch and said: "It is already four twenty in the morning. According to the habits in tropical areas, in ten minutes, the sky will be bright. Five At midnight, the sky will start to lighten up and the sunrise will begin.
Our attack time must be launched before four forty, otherwise we will be exposed to the eyes of the Citizen.
By then, the daily patrol and reconnaissance aircraft they dispatch will definitely discover our fleet. "
Although the Citigroup has not sent too many naval forces here in order not to provoke China for the time being, their land and aviation forces are quite diligent.
Although there is no war, several large-scale searches every day have never ended.
If they cannot launch an attack before sunrise and catch Citigroup off guard, their opportunity will be lost.
Cao Guosheng glanced at Ren Ran and said: "It seems that Commander Ren has been prepared for a long time. But that's fine, Commander Ren, I will send bombers and planes to cover you next.
Our country¡¯s Army aviation aircraft in the East Malaysian and Northern Malaysian provinces will also take off to support us after we launch an attack and intercept Citigroup¡¯s Army aircraft for us.
You just feel free to attack. "
Cao Guosheng looked at Ren Ran and said in a deep voice.
"please!"
Ren Ran smacked his lips, turned around and left.
The troop transport ship slowly entered the sea outside the port from the open sea, and the troop transport fleet carrying the First Marine Division was very quiet.
Ren Ran stood on a light cruiser and kept looking at the port with a telescope.
"Master, you should give the order quickly!"
The staff officer next to him became a little anxious when he saw that Ren Ran was still not giving the order.
"Don't worry! Why are you anxious? Let me take a look again!"
Ren Ran gave the staff officer a slap on the back of the head, and then continued to look.
Less than two minutes later, he said: "Go and give an order to Commander Cao Guosheng to ask the naval battleships not to conduct shelling for the time being. Wait for our signal.
A group of power generators, let them quietly approach it and try to see if they can land like this. ¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
