During the Anti-Japanese War, the landlord's stupid son defied fate

Just as the Japanese aircraft carrier's carrier-based aircraft were busy and anxiously replacing ammunition on the deck, the scene fell into chaos.

At this critical moment, the dive bombers from the USS Enterprise and USS Yorktown suddenly appeared in the sky like ghosts, and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese aircraft carriers with thunderous force.

Only deafening explosions were heard one after another, and the three aircraft carriers Kaga, Soryu and Akagi were hit one after another by heavy bombs dropped accurately.

In an instant, flames shot up into the sky, thick smoke billowed, and the raging flames instantly engulfed the entire aircraft carrier, completely depriving it of the ability to continue fighting.

As time passed, it gradually darkened and it was almost afternoon.

At this time, the Japanese only had one isolated and helpless aircraft carrier, the Feilong, which was still standing stubbornly on the battlefield.

This indomitable aircraft carrier made a desperate move and launched two consecutive rounds of crazy counterattacks against the USS Yorktown of the Eagle Sauce.

In the end, the Yorktown was unfortunately hit hard and seriously injured.

However, at this moment, the Enterprise's bomber group, as sharp as birds of prey, quickly locked onto the Hiryu aircraft carrier like a pack of wolves smelling prey.

They swooped down with a roar, dropping powerful bombs and torpedoes that rained down on the Feilong.

In an instant, flames shot up into the sky and the explosion was deafening.

The Feilong suffered severe damage under this fierce attack. Its hull was broken and thick smoke billowed. It gradually lost its ability to resist and finally sank slowly into the turbulent sea.

The two sides engaged in a thrilling battle in this vast sea, which lasted for an entire day.

Time passed quietly, and when the night gradually faded away and the dawn light shone on the sea, the situation on the battlefield had changed drastically.

The situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable for the Japanese.

Isoroku Yamamoto stood on the command platform, looking at the tragic battlefield in front of him with a serious expression.

He knew that defeat was inevitable, so he had no choice but to order a retreat.

At the same time, in order to prevent the four aircraft carriers that were severely damaged and unable to be towed from falling into the hands of the enemy, he made up his mind to punish them with torpedo strikes.

In fact, it is the act of using torpedoes to sink a ship to prevent it from falling into enemy hands or to avoid unnecessary losses.

During the retreat, misfortune once again befell the Japanese.

Their aircraft carriers "Akagi", "Kaga" and "Soryu" were severely damaged and slow in movement, and were sunk by torpedoes fired by their own destroyers.

This was also an incredible accident.

This was probably a mistake made in a hurry.

The USS Yorktown, an American aircraft carrier that had been damaged in a previous battle, was struggling to carry out repairs at sea.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. The scarred battleship was ultimately unable to escape the disaster and was taken advantage of by the Japanese submarine I-168, which used a deadly torpedo to send it to the depths of the sea.

At this point, this extremely fierce naval battle finally came to an end.

The Japanese Combined Fleet suffered heavy losses in this battle and was severely damaged. The once majestic fleet has now become a remnant and in a miserable state.

The Eagle Sauce side achieved a decisive victory with its tenacious fighting spirit and excellent tactics, successfully defending its maritime hegemony.

It was a long time later that the Japanese soldier Yamamoto summarized the data on the losses in this battle.

"Yamamoto-kun, this is our loss, please take a look."

A deputy said sadly.

He was in a very bad mood at the moment. He knew it was over, the navy was completely finished.

Yamamoto also knew that the situation was definitely not good, so he took the document and started to read it.

He sighed for a long time and said helplessly.

"I want to rest for a while, you guys go out."

He was very sad because they lost four heavy aircraft carriers in this battle, namely "Akagi", "Kaga", "Soryu" and "Hiryu".

These four aircraft carriers are the core strength of the navy. Among them, "Akagi" and "Kaga" belong to the first generation of aircraft carriers of the Japanese Navy and have an important position in the Japanese Navy.

The "Soryu" and "Hiryu" were modern aircraft carriers built by the navy 37 years ago. Their sinking was a devastating blow to the Japanese navy's aircraft carrier force.

As the four aircraft carriers sank, a large number of carrier-based aircraft were also lost. A total of about 4 carrier-based aircraft were destroyed, including various types of aircraft such as fighters, bombers and torpedo planes.

The loss of these carrier-based aircraft makes it difficult for the Navy to restore its air strike and reconnaissance capabilities in the short term.

At the same time, hundreds of experienced carrier-based aircraft pilots were lost.

These pilots have undergone long-term training and accumulated practical experience and are the elite of the naval aviation force.

Their loss caused the Navy to face problems of pilot shortage and declining quality in subsequent operations. The newly added pilots could not compare with the previous ones in terms of skills and experience, which seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the naval aviation.

The heavy cruiser Mikuma was sunk and the cruiser Mogami was severely damaged.

Cruisers undertake important tasks such as reconnaissance and fire support in naval battles. The sinking of the Mikuma and the heavy damage to the Mogami weakened the navy's reconnaissance and firepower output capabilities.

The Navy's destroyers also suffered losses in the Battle of Midway, such as the destroyer "Tanikaze" which was sunk by an American submarine while rescuing survivors from the aircraft carrier "Hiryu".

The destroyer "Nokaze" was damaged by an American aircraft while covering its retreat.

Although the Japanese Navy's battleships were not sunk in the Battle of Midway, some of them suffered a certain degree of damage.

The battleship "Kirishima" was attacked by American aircraft during the naval battle, and the hull suffered some damage. Although it did not affect its core combat effectiveness, it weakened the overall strength of the navy's battleship to a certain extent.

This information made Yamamoto realize that the losses in the Battle of Midway had wiped out their navy's strategic advantage in the Pacific battlefield. From then on, they gradually lost the initiative in the early stages of the war and were forced to switch to strategic defense.

When this news reached Yan Country, everyone was excited.

Because this is great news, because the Japanese navy has suffered heavy losses, which means that their combat effectiveness will decline.

Even if there are a million Japanese devils here, so what? These people will be wiped out in the near future.

The command immediately began their operations according to the previous plan.

At this time, Zhao Gang also began to send telegrams to the chief of staff in Myanmar, asking him to make appropriate efforts to attack the 33rd Division and cripple the enemy.

This will help to take over Myanmar in advance.
