Chapter 1515 The United States’ Surprise Attack on Pearl Harbor

Faced with the crazy attacks by the Americans, the Japanese army did not sit still and wait for death.

The warships turned crazily to avoid torpedoes, and various anti-aircraft guns fired one after another to prevent the aircraft from approaching.

Some warships even raised their main guns in an attempt to increase anti-aircraft firepower.

But facing the overwhelming number of planes, it still seemed too weak.

Fortunately, most battleships have thick armor and can survive one or two torpedoes.

Zero fighters also gradually began to take off.

Seeing that they could not take advantage, after throwing away all the bombs, the fleet began to evacuate.

Upon seeing this, the Zero fighter plane immediately chased after him.

These pilots were all newbies with little experience. They were tracked by Zero fighters and found the location of the fleet.

The Zero fighter immediately sent the coordinates back.

When Yamamoto heard that there were actually dozens of aircraft carriers, he even thought he heard it wrong.

"Baga, how can there be so many aircraft carriers?"

"It's absolutely true. Please send additional personnel quickly. I will guide you from the air." The pilot said quickly.

"Baga, all the planes take off and try to destroy all the aircraft carriers as much as possible. The main battleships are also moving closer to each other, trying to use naval guns to resolve the battle."

After giving the order, Yamamoto sat down dejectedly.

What he was most worried about happened, and the United States' powerful industrial capabilities came into operation.

They actually organized so many aircraft carriers in such a short period of time.

So what if they win this battle?

They still couldn't attack each other's east coast.

As long as the United States is given some more time, the other side can build a larger navy than it currently has.

How can we fight then?

If you persist for a long time, failure is inevitable.

Yamamoto couldn't think of a way to crack it.

The ending was just as Yamamoto expected.

The combined fleet relied on the advantage of the battleships to beat the escort aircraft carriers to pieces, but it also suffered heavy losses.

In the wave of attacks just now, he lost two light aircraft carriers, one heavy aircraft carrier, three cruisers, four destroyers, several battleships suffered varying degrees of damage, and even one of the Yamato's turrets was blown over. Return to Hong Kong for rest.

Although they won this battle, the losses were real, and with their current industrial capabilities, they could not make up for it.

The most terrible thing is that their pilots suffered heavy losses.

Many veteran pilots who had trained for many years were lost.

The new pilots are in training and cannot even replenish their supplies.

The entire combined fleet was severely damaged.

It is conceivable that if such a war happens two or three more times, the entire combined fleet will cease to exist.

The combined fleet returned to the Hawaii military port in despair to rest.

However, the battle report of the great victory flew back to the mainland.

The news was spread everywhere in the streets that the United Fleet had destroyed the main fleet of the American army and had successfully entered the war.

Looking at the jubilant Japanese, Zhang Tuohai certainly knew what the truth was.

However, he was not prepared to expose it.

Let them continue their fanaticism so that he can implement the plan of 100 million pieces of jade.

"The battle of the combined fleet is unfavorable. The islands in the Pacific may face attacks by the American army. One million troops will be mobilized from the mainland and deployed on the islands to defend the mainland."

Zhang Tuohai said while shaking his wine glass.

"Yes." The remaining ministers did not dare to disobey Zhang Tuohai's order and immediately complied.

There are actually no troops left in the mainland. Except for the military police units left behind, most of the divisions have been almost exhausted in several deployments.

However, orders are hard to disobey.

The military police had no choice but to resort to old methods of catching young men.

"What, you are seventy years old? Can you carry a gun? If you can, come with us."

"What, you are short-sighted and can't see the target? It doesn't matter, we will put you in the first row and make sure you are close."

"What, you are paralyzed and can't walk? It doesn't matter. There is a kamikaze qualification here. Take a look."

In order to satisfy the numbers, the military police even released all the prisoners in the prison, transported them by ship to deserted islands, threw some weapons at random, and let them fend for themselves here.

As for women, they all went into factories to produce various weapons for the front line.

After several rounds of recruitment, Zhang Tuohai almost drained the local male power.

A large number of military forces are deployed on many islands.

With Japan's current transportation capacity, it is naturally impossible to guarantee food supply for so many people, and it can only be left to each army to solve the problem themselves.

In order to obtain food, these troops had to recruit exorbitant amounts of money from the local area.

This made the local people very dissatisfied and even began to organize organized resistance to the Japanese army.

At the same time, the second batch of US warships was launched and came to the Pacific Ocean again.

Cooperating with them are dozens of submarines.

This fleet adopted the same pattern as Nagumo and quietly approached Pearl Harbor under the cover of night.

Because they have been operating here for many years, they know the water conditions here well.

Dozens of submarines took advantage of the darkness to sneak into Pearl Harbor.

Dozens of large warships were docked at the berths.

"Each choose a target and start attacking after ten seconds."

Ten seconds later, dozens of torpedoes were shot out of the water and rushed towards the anchored warships.

The anchored warship had no resistance at all and was directly hit by a torpedo.

Boom, boom!

A cloud of explosions rose up.

These battleships were directly hit by torpedoes.

The battleship with a relatively small tonnage simply sat on the spot and sank.

Large-tonnage battleships also poured in massive amounts of seawater.

Even if it hasn't sunk yet, it still has no combat capability and must undergo major repairs.

Almost half of the main battleships of the entire combined fleet have lost their combat capabilities.

"Attack, someone is attacking!"

Sirens sounded in Pearl Harbor.

However, at this time, the carrier-based aircraft on the escort aircraft carrier had already arrived over Pearl Harbor.

They attacked the airport and warships in the port.

Just like what the Japanese did back then.

Unprepared, the combined fleet was caught off guard, and several more battleships were sunk.

The airport runway was blown up and fighter planes were blown up on the runway.

Pearl Harbor was ablaze, just as it had been months before.

After the air raid, the warships approached Pearl Harbor and conducted a blanket bombardment of the islands.

Because, with a similar map of the island, the American army carried out precise shelling on every building.

Let the flames burn the entire island, leaving not a single intact building.

As for whether this move would harm civilians, they did not consider it at all, and the entire Pearl Harbor was razed to the ground.

After getting the news, Zhang Tuohai showed a smile on his face.

He knew that the overall situation had been decided, and he didn't need to worry about the rest. The frustrated Americans would help him take care of everything.

And all he needs to do is to enjoy it while he still has some time left.

"Why are you stopping? Let's continue playing music and then dance!"

Zhang Tuohai waved his hand, and the sound of Mi Mi echoed in the imperial palace again.
