This era is still an era dominated by battleships. Even if Germany realizes the importance of aircraft carriers, it is still talking about the sharp guns of battleships in terms of foreign publicity. There are indeed several naval battles, which are miracles created by battleships.

Island countries also attach importance to battleships. However, when they attack American ports, they can only attack aircraft carriers. Some naval personnel in island countries have also realized that aircraft carriers will play an increasingly important role in future naval battles.

This time, the island country sneaked into Pearl Harbor and delineated the primary operational target is the American aircraft carrier!

All warships in Pearl Harbor, including 3 aircraft carrier enterprise, Lexington, Saratoga, 9 battleships Pennsylvania, California, Maryland, Oklahoma, Tennessee, West Virginia, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, 20 cruisers, 69 destroyers and 27 submarines.

Now, the battleships are inside the port, but the aircraft carrier is not!

What makes people more worried is that their own side went to attack and the aircraft carrier was not there. Does this mean that the secret of the attack has been leaked?

The most important thing in a surprise attack is confidentiality. If the secret is leaked, your side may be surrounded and annihilated.

In particular, if these three aircraft carriers start out and sneak attack on their own side while waiting for their own carrier aircraft to come out in a certain sea area, wouldn't it be that stealing chickens can't erode rice and bury the island's navy!

Nan Yunzhong immediately frowned. At this time, his expression seemed to say, do you want to terminate the mission?

Ruder looked at Nan yunzhongyi and knew what he was thinking. Ruder couldn't help thinking of hilrick's comments on the officers of the island country before he left.

Pheasant 56 is a gambler. Once he smells the opportunity, he doesn't hesitate to put all his wealth into it!

As for Nan yunzhongyi, he is a small family. As long as he takes a little advantage, he will be satisfied. He belongs to a person who doesn't want to make progress.

Now it seems that if so, he is so cautious that he will be afraid if the enemy changes a little.

"Why don't we send back?" Nan yunzhongyi said to himself.

As the commander-in-chief of the whole attack force, he didn't have to discuss with anyone, but now he has no confidence to speak.

"No." Ruder doesn't care what his identity is. He only remembers his task and must fight Pearl Harbor beautifully!

Just find the other party's aircraft carrier is not here, so at a loss?

Never send a telegram back to me!

In order to keep the voyage secret, they kept absolute radio silence after going to sea.

Although some fishing boats keep sending messages back, the radio power on the fishing boat is small, and it can only transmit one or two hundred nautical miles. If the aircraft carrier wants to contact the rear, it needs radio waves to fly thousands of nautical miles. The island country receives it, and the Americans receive it.

As long as you send a report, you are really exposing the target.

"Collect all kinds of intelligence to find the whereabouts of the three aircraft carriers." "Even if we divide a fleet, we have to complete the task," ruder said

A fleet? Nan Yunzhong frowned: "this is different from our plan."

"No plan can keep up with changes. As a commander on the scene, we must learn to be flexible." Ruder said: "the fate of the Empire. In this war, you are the most loyal soldiers of the Empire. Unfortunately, I see timidity."

Stimulate each other! Behind ruder is a powerful Germany, a country with brilliant combat achievements. His sarcasm is very effective.

Sure enough, Nan Yunzhong looked ugly. He said to ruder, "how can we be timid! Continue to collect intelligence. If these three aircraft carriers dare to ambush us, we will sink them! "

"Release the Zero fighter and search the waters of 500 nautical miles nearby." Nan yunzhongyi continued.

In this era, even if warships have radar, it is very primitive, and the carrier aircraft on the aircraft carrier is enough to attack targets 500 nautical miles away. There will be hidden dangers on the vast ocean at any time.

The Zero fighter has a long range and fast speed. Compared with the slow water reconnaissance aircraft, it is more efficient to search with the Zero fighter.

With Nan yunzhongyi's order, the deck was busy.

Captain Matsuzaki of the 40th team sat in his Zero fighter. In order to hide, the emblem on his wing had been painted. He took a few deep breaths and started the 950 HP Nakajima "Rong" 12 engine in front.

The familiar roar came, his plane was started, the propeller was faster and faster, the brake was released, the plane skidded briskly on the deck, and then took off.

This is a small and flexible fighter. Matsuzaki Sannan is very satisfied with this fighter.

After the Stuka received from Germany boarded the ship, the comparison between the fighter force and the bomber force came. The pilots of the bomber force often laughed at them. Do you want to hang under our belly and take off?

The empty weight of zero type is only 1700kg, which is exactly the load capacity of Stuka!

But what's the use?

Try speed? Compare the voyage again?

Now, to search the nearby sea, of course, an aircraft with high speed and long range can act as a Zero fighter. It is the most appropriate!

After easily leaving the flight deck, Matsuzaki Sannan flew a Zero fighter and climbed up quickly. This small and flexible aircraft has a good climb rate.

The aircraft carrier formation below has gradually shrunk to points on the sea. Matsuzaki's Zero fighter has penetrated the clouds. When it climbs out of the clouds, it has risen to more than 2000 meters.

The following aircraft carrier formation took off eight fighters, one in one direction, searching for an area of 500 kilometers near the aircraft carrier, while Matsuzaki's direction is the southeast of the aircraft carrier.

Fly, continue to fly forward. The long flight is very boring. At the same time, Matsuzaki Sannan also needs to visually search the sea. With the increasing distance, the width he needs to search is also increasing.

Half an hour passed quickly.

An hour passed.

One third of the fuel has been consumed, and the distance has met the requirements. There is nothing visible. According to the mission requirements, he should return.

But he didn't. as an island pilot, he was loyal and arrogant.

Keep flying!

When the fuel consumption was more than half, he was only more than 100 nautical miles away from Pearl Harbor. At this time, he saw the faint outline on the sea surface and was immediately happy.
