At 8 o'clock in the morning, this morning, Citigroup's carrier-based aircraft and dive bombers were the first to arrive over Attu Island. Immediately afterwards, the North Sea Fleet also dispatched a large-scale carrier-based aircraft to the forward airspace to engage the Citizen carrier-based aircraft.
"The position of the Chinese fleet has been exposed? Are they on the northwest coast of Attu Island?"
Halsey suddenly turned to look at the staff officer who came to report.
"Yes! Our pilots saw the Chinese fleet in the distance above Attu Island. Based on the radar showing the direction in which the Chinese fighters appeared, we have determined that the Chinese fleet is there."
The staff officer said with a serious face.
"What are these Chinese people going to do? They actually exposed their fleet to our eyes like this. Do they think that because they sank three of our aircraft carriers yesterday, they think that our military strength has been greatly damaged and we can no longer pose a threat to them?"
Halsey¡¯s eyes kept flashing, and he didn¡¯t understand the Chinese people¡¯s actions.
"General Halsey, why don't we send out a reconnaissance plane to conduct an investigation on them?"
Jamil thought for a while and said to Halsey, since it is not clear, then investigate carefully and you will know.
"Would you like to conduct a reconnaissance? I don't think so. Just let the torpedo planes and dive bombers attack their fleet. Give power to the Army Aviation and let the Army Aviation's fighters help us hold back the Chinese carrier-based aircraft. It is best to eliminate more Many Chinese carrier-based aircraft will cover the attack of our torpedo planes and dive bombers!"
Halsey believes that this kind of opportunity is once in a blue moon. Instead of wasting time on investigation, it is better to attack directly. Let the Mustangs help.
Yesterday¡¯s battle also let Halsey know that the number of China¡¯s new fighter jets should not be very large now, otherwise they would not have had hundreds of fighter jets attack more than two hundred new Chinese fighter jets yesterday.
So he believed that Lu Hang could hold off China today.
Citigroup¡¯s dive bombers and torpedo planes flew towards the North Sea Fleet. When Chen Yongqin, who was on the flagship of the North Sea Fleet, found out, he just coldly ordered the entire fleet to pay attention to air defense.
Suddenly, at this moment, news came from the radar ship.
"Commander, the radar shows that behind us, a large number of aircraft are flying towards Attu Island. There are about five hundred aircraft in total."
A telegram was quickly delivered to Chen Yongqin.
"More than five hundred? Coming from behind us?"
Chen Yongqin was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why there were more than 500 planes flying from behind.
"Could it be the BF109 fighter from the Army Aviation Group?"
Zeng Yiding guessed, no wonder he guessed like this, after all, the Army Aviation lost one-third of its Falcon fighter jets yesterday. Moreover, the total number of Falcon fighter jets here is less than 500, so how could it be possible to send more than 500 of them.
"Impossible! The transit airport on Bering Island will not be able to build two runways until tomorrow.
It is simply impossible to send fighter planes to support today. There is only one possibility. Last night, the country sent Falcon fighter planes to Ust-Kamchatsk to support overnight.
With the speed and range of the Falcon fighter, they can get here within one night. "
A glimmer of light flashed in Chen Yongqin's eyes. It was impossible for the Hellcat carrier-based aircraft to reach Ust-Katamtsk in one night, but that didn't mean that the Falcon fighter planes couldn't do it.
"After my order, all carrier-based aircraft took off immediately to meet the enemy and block the Citizen aircraft. At the same time, the fleet weighed anchor and sailed away from the northwest coast of Attu Island and entered the sea.
Since the Army Aviation has more than 500 Falcon fighters, some of them will be flying today. We can have a good fight with Citi Army again! "
Chen Yongqin licked his dry lips. There are more than 500 Falcon fighter jets. He believes that these Falcon fighter jets will teach Citigroup an unforgettable lesson.
"Report! Submarine brigade commander Fang Fengchen has arrived!"
Just when Chen Yongqin¡¯s order had just been conveyed, a staff officer ran in and shouted.
"Fang Fengchen? Why is this guy here? Invite him in quickly!"
Chen Yongqin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a happy face.
Fang Fengchen is a graduate of the ninth batch of the main army non-commissioned officer academy. When he graduated, the Anti-Japanese War had not yet broken out. At that time, Zhou Weiguo was studying in Germany.
After graduation, he did not choose to be directly assigned to the army as an officer. Instead, he applied for the Naval Academy. This could be regarded as following his grandfather's legacy, because his grandfather participated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894.
While he was at the Naval Academy,If it can be done, it will be done for you! "
"I need to establish my submarine command headquarters in your fleet."
"Yes! I will immediately allocate a Yanzhou-class aircraft carrier for your use."
Chen Yongqin agreed to this request without much thought.
Fang Fengchen¡¯s submarine force continued to sail towards the Citigroup fleet.
Before Fang Fengchen met Chen Yongqin, the submarine force could only use its own judgment to determine that the Citigroup fleet was in such a direction.
After Fang Fengchen learned the specific location of the Citigroup fleet from Chen Yongqin, the submarine began to sail towards the waters where the Citigroup fleet was located.
And the air battle over Attu Island is reaching a fierce moment.
Citigroup¡¯s Mustang fighters and Hellcat carrier-based aircraft were intercepted by China¡¯s Falcon fighters and carrier-based aircraft. Citigroup's torpedo planes and dive bombers did not dare to fly over the North Sea Fleet without fighter escort. They had no choice but to return home and prepare to wait for further changes in the war.
After all, Citigroup does not have many carrier-based aircraft, and the Mustang fighters were restrained by the Falcon fighters as soon as they arrived at the front line.
The first two Citi Army Air Force divisions that arrived were beaten so badly by the Falcons that they could only continue to send additional fighter planes to support them.
Time passed slowly in the midst of such a brutal air battle, and the submarine force also arrived around the Citizen fleet at noon.
"It seems that the Citi Army's security is very deep! Look at their formation, they are ready for battle at any time!"
A squadron leader roughly marked the locations of the main battleships of the Citizen Fleet on the chart through the data reported by each team.
"Squadron Captain, shall we fight? Judging from the formation, it seems that Citigroup did not pay attention to guarding against our submarine force!"
A staff officer asked standing next to the squadron leader.
"No rush! This time our mission is to cooperate with the North Sea Fleet to destroy Citigroup's North Pacific Fleet. And this time we dispatched more than fifty Xxi-type submarines.
This is a large-scale battle. Whether to fight or not is not decided by me as the squadron leader. It still needs to be given by the commander after coordinating the entire army. "
It seems that these squadron leaders have already received orders before and must not start a war easily.
"This formation of the Citi Army is really interesting. But that's fine. If you don't guard against our submarine force, then I will hit you!"
Come, give orders to each submarine squadron and ask them to arrive at their designated positions. After an hour, the attack will begin. Be the first to destroy all the aircraft carriers and heavy cruisers of Citigroup and eliminate the main force of their Northern Fleet! "
A telegram was sent from Fang Fengchen's headquarters.
An hour can be said to be fast or slow. Within this hour, each submarine squadron had adjusted its position.
At 1:30 in the afternoon on September 7, it can be said that it was quiet below the US Navy fleet.
Halsey¡¯s eyes were still staring at the chart, as if he could see a flower in the chart.
Suddenly, there were a lot of frightened screams outside.
"Hmm? Torpedoes? Many torpedoes?"
Halsey could not help but frown when he heard the scattered sounds. Then he walked to the window, glanced at the sea, and was stunned.
At this time, on the sea surface, there were hundreds of torpedoes dragging white waves and attacking the Citizen fleet.
How spectacular is this scene?
"Two to three hundred torpedoes were flying on the sea at the same time. In that scene, it seemed that there was nothing else on the sea except torpedoes.
The sailors in the Citizen Fleet all looked frightened.
"Damn! Submarine! It's definitely a Chinese submarine. When did they arrive around our fleet? Order all ships to start avoiding these damn torpedoes!"
Halsey said sternly to a staff officer.
In fact, there is no need for Halsey to say that with so many torpedoes, every aircraft carrier and heavy cruiser is trying to avoid them.
Only the frigates are working hard to sail towards the aircraft carrier, trying to block these torpedoes for the aircraft carrier. This is originally the role of the frigate!
