Third Reich: I took over power

On January 23, 1941, a shore-based aircraft of the Eastern Imperial Navy discovered traces of the Pacific Fleet of the Japanese Navy. At this time, the Pacific Fleet was located a thousand kilometers north of the Hawaiian Islands.

After the Eastern Empire Navy Combined Fleet learned of this situation, they immediately headed north, and at the same time mobilized more shore-based aircraft and submarines to detect the Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy.

However, the Pacific Fleet of the Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy then changed its direction, first heading east, and then turning south, so that the combined fleet missed the target.

In the early morning of January 4, four aircraft carriers of the Eagle Navy took off a large number of carrier-based aircraft and headed straight for the Hawaiian Islands.

Admiral Nimitz and others knew very well that the Eagle Navy was at a very obvious disadvantage in this battle. The shore-based aircraft deployed by the Toyo Empire Navy on the Hawaiian Islands have posed a great threat to them. If they can destroy the airports on the Hawaiian Islands and destroy these shore-based aircraft through a bombing operation, it will undoubtedly help them defeat the Japanese Imperial Navy in the next decisive battle.

But unfortunately, the war preparedness of the Japanese people is much better than that of the Taojiang country.

Those shore-based aircraft are fully fueled and loaded with ammunition, and are ready to take off at any time.

At the same time, the Japanese also deployed air search radars on the Hawaiian Islands. Although the detection distance is only more than 200 kilometers, it can provide more than 20 minutes of warning time for one's own side.

When the air defense siren sounded, a large number of Japanese Imperial Navy pilots rushed towards their planes.

Zero fighter jets immediately took off one after another, and under the guidance of the air search radar, they attacked the incoming Yingjiang Kingdom carrier-based aircraft group.

At the same time, the combined fleet also learned the news.

Admiral Yamamoto Isoroku immediately ordered the combined fleet to turn and rush towards the Pacific Fleet of the Navy of the Eagle Kingdom, trying to seize this opportunity and kill the Pacific Fleet of the Navy of the Eagle Kingdom in one fell swoop.

Fierce air battles once again started over the Hawaiian Islands.

The shore-based aircraft of the Toyo Empire Navy took off more than a hundred Zero fighters to fight against the carrier-based aircraft group of the Eagle Navy.

During this wave of attacks, the Eagle Navy only had a total of more than 160 carrier-based aircraft. And most of them are SBD2 dive bombers and TBD torpedo attack aircraft. There were only more than seventy F4F fighter jets escorting them.

The performance of the F4F fighter plane cannot be compared with that of the Zero fighter. Especially when it comes to dog fighting, it is in a state of being crushed by the Zero fighter.

So much so that in this air battle, a large number of F4F fighters were shot down by Zero fighters. There were also a large number of SBD2 dive bombers and TBD torpedo attack aircraft, which were massacred by Zero fighters.

One after another, the carrier-based aircraft of the Eagle Kingdom were hit, burning, dragging thick smoke from high altitudes to the ground, and fell hard to the ground, turning into a pile of scrap metal.

The people of the Eagle Kingdom on the Hawaiian Islands are also fighting in the air. When they saw their carrier-based aircraft being shot down one after another, their hearts were broken.

Although, under the desperate attack of the Eagle Navy's carrier-based aircraft group, the airport on the Hawaiian Islands was still blown up. However, it did not cause much damage to the shore-based aircraft of the Toyo Empire Navy.

Moreover, the engineers of the Toyo Empire Navy immediately repaired the airport. In a day or two at most, the destroyed runway can be repaired and fighter planes can take off and land normally.

However, most of the more than 160 carrier-based aircraft dispatched by the Yingjiang Kingdom were lost, and only a few dozen of them successfully escaped.

More importantly, their position has been exposed, and the combined fleet of the Eastern Empire Navy has been heading towards them.

In order to ensure that they would not be lost again this time, the Eastern Navy Combined Fleet took off multiple Zero fighter jets to track and monitor the Pacific Fleet of the Japanese Navy.

At 9 a.m., the joint ship began to take off carrier-based aircraft and launched an attack on the Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy.

The eight aircraft carriers of the combined fleet took off more than two hundred carrier-based aircraft, and they attacked the Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy in a mighty manner.

The Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy was not to be outdone, and dispatched more than a hundred remaining carrier-based aircraft to attack the combined fleet.

Fierce fighting broke out in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

Facing the attack by the carrier-based aircraft group of the Toyo Navy, the Pacific Fleet of the Japanese Navy relied on its powerful fleet air defense firepower to deal a huge blow to it.

However, in the face of overwhelming attacks from carrier-based aircraft, the Eagle Navy has little experience. As a result, many mistakes occurred during the battle.

Four aircraft carriers became the key attack targets of the Toyo Navy. The USS Raider, USS Yorktown and USS Wasp were sunk, and the USS Hornet was severely damaged.

Among the seven battleships, the two North Carolina-class battleships naturally became the focus of the siege.

Under the siege of a large number of carrier-based aircraft, although the two battleships were not sunk, they suffered considerable damage.

However, the attack by the carrier-based aircraft group of the Japanese Navy was intercepted by the Toyo Navy's Zero fighter jets, causing heavy losses. It did not cause much damage to the Toyo Navy's combined fleet. Only the aircraft carriers Ryujo and Hiryu suffered heavy damage..

The combined fleet, which gained the upper hand in the naval battle, even launched a pursuit of the Pacific Fleet of the Eagle Navy.

Carrier-based aircraft have been dispatched many times to attack the Pacific Fleet of the Japanese Navy.

During the siege, although these battleships of the Eagle Navy relied on powerful anti-aircraft firepower, they caused great losses to the carrier-based aircraft of the Toyo Empire Navy. But it was also seriously damaged by aerial bombs and aerial torpedo attacks. Although it has not been sunk, the battleship's combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.

That night, the 10 battleships of the combined fleet finally caught up with the 7 battleships of the Eagle Navy.

A fierce battle of battleships broke out between the two sides in the Eastern Pacific.

Even at night, the vision is seriously affected.

But the battle was still very fierce.

The Pacific Fleet's capital ship formation, which has been severely damaged, is naturally no match for the Combined Fleet's capital ship formation.

But their sharp counterattack still caused great losses to the battleship formation of the combined fleet.

In the end, when the naval battle came to an end, all seven battleships of the Pacific Fleet were sunk.

Of the ten battleships of the combined fleet, two were sunk, namely the Kongo and the Hiei. In addition, four battleships suffered heavy damage.

Despite heavy losses, the Toyo Empire Navy finally won this crucial naval battle. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
