Chapter 2713： Expose one (1/2)
”Finally, I want to remind everyone that any war has a price. If you pay a heavy price in exchange for more victories, then I think the price is worth it. No one can gain victory from the **** of war for free! In the past! That's it, it's the way it is now, and it will be the same in the future!” Betty said a little impatiently. He glanced at everyone in the venue, and looked at the hesitation with oppressive eyes.
”If my plan is not passed, then I will withdraw from this war and return to England. I can tolerate your doubts about me, but I will never work with a group of people who are not willing to shed blood and dare not fight for victory!” Betty Finally, he said, then he leaned back in his chair and said nothing, waiting for the decision of others.
”That's it. The land-based aviation force is under the command of your country’s former Royal Air Force Lieutenant General Charles, then the combined fleet aircraft carrier detachment will be handed over to you. The Americans think they have grasped the key to victory in the war, but at the same time, this It is also our chance! The real fighters will not give up any chance! If we dare not fight a decisive battle with the Americans today, how will we face the American fleet in the future?” In the end, Shigeru Yoshimatsu gritted his teeth Express support for Betty. The Japanese must gain as much advantage as possible in this battle, otherwise, let alone lose, there will be absolutely no tomorrow for the Japanese combined fleet even if it makes less money! Great victory, the war can continue, defeat or give up, then the initiative on the regular battlefield is equal to giving up the hand!
Therefore, after the high level of the British and Japanese navies reached an agreement, the naval and air forces in the Sulawesi Sea area had been mobilized. Shigetaro Yoshimatsu personally issued an order requesting all Japanese land-based aviation forces on Kalimantan to assemble towards the northern airport. At the same time, he also contacted the army, hoping that the army could provide the air force and various materials as much as possible.
The joint fleet also went south that night. They will first head to the eastern Sulawesi Sea, and then wait for the news of tomorrow's air reconnaissance. After determining the size of the US fleet, they will choose the time and place for the decisive battle with the Americans as appropriate.
After some preparations, at dawn, the Japanese long-range air reconnaissance force stationed near Taragen Island was ready before take-off. A V1500 unfolded their wide wings, and then assisted by the tractor. Towed down to the runway to wait for takeoff. The crew members are doing the final preparations under the leadership of the captain. Before takeoff, they have been told that this will be a very important and dangerous mission!
”After the end of the war, I have never seen so many four-engine heavy aircraft in one mission.” Lieutenant Bell said, looking at the more than 20 V1500s behind him.
”Everyone, confirm the final state of the aircraft.” After seeing a ground crew in front signal that the runway has been cleared and can take off at any time, Lieutenant Bell, Captain of the Gushen, said to his men. To control a V1500, you need at least 8 well-trained crew members. Everyone performs their duties and works together to ensure the smooth completion of the task.
”The radio equipment and navigation equipment are normal.” The first report is the electromechanical officer, who is responsible for all radio-related equipment of the aircraft.
