    On September 3, 1938, after the Japs took the initiative to retreat, shrink their troops and prepare to defend Shanghai, the Eighty-eighth Group Army finally succeeded in surrounding Shanghai!

    Under such circumstances, Zhou Weiguo did not rush to order the ground troops to launch an attack. Instead, he mobilized nine Stuka dive bombing brigades to prepare to attack the Japanese navy overseas in Shanghai from land.

    As for why ten were not mobilized, it was because they wanted to leave a dive bombing brigade for Fang Shengli¡¯s 132nd Division to support them

    September 4, 1938, overseas in Shanghai, on the battleship King Kong of the Little Japanese squadron.

    Although the main support this time is the Akagi and Kaga aircraft carriers, at this time, the little devils are still rampant with their giant ship and cannon doctrine.

    Therefore, the commander of the squadron this time is Colonel Takeo Kurita, the captain of the battleship Kongo.

    "Suzuki-kun, the army is really useless. It consumed so many resources and finances, but it was still defeated by a small China.

    Now we have to curl up under the wings of our navy to survive. It is really a disgrace to our empire!  "

    The person who spoke was Takeo Kurita, a battleship captain with the rank of colonel.  And the Suzuki-kun in his mouth is called Suzuki Yoshio, and he is his chief of staff.

    If nothing else happens, by the end of this year, he, the chief of staff, will take his place and become the captain of the battleship King Kong.

    Listening to Kurita Takeo¡¯s disdainful words and looking at the mocking look on his face, Suzuki Yoshio also showed a look of pride on his face.

    In Little Devil, the conflict between sea and land has been going on for a long time. Between the two armies, you can¡¯t stand me and I can¡¯t stand you. The two sides can be said to be on the same page.

    For example, the Zero fighter in history was used by both land and sea.

    But in fact, Hainan Airlines and China Airlines are different in some places.

    For example, the direction of rotation of the screw nut on the Zero fighter is different for both arms.  From these we can see how deep the contradiction between the two arms is.

    "That's right! The empire's navy is the best in Asia, and it can also be ranked among the top three in the world. When has little China ever had a powerful navy? Huh! Those wastes in the army will only waste the empire's few resources.  !¡±

    Kurita Takeo very much agreed with Suzuki Yoshio¡¯s words and couldn¡¯t help but nodded when he heard his words.

    "Suzuki-kun! These are not things you and I can discuss! This time we just need to provide accurate naval gun support for those trash guys in the army. As for other things, let's wait for their senior management to decide!"

    Although Li Tianqiang said that he did not talk about discussion, his words still revealed the feeling of wanting to discuss.

    "Kurita-kun! The army is retreating to Shanghai. I'm worried that they won't be able to stop the Chinese attack in the end. I'm afraid they will eventually retreat to our warships. Can we let them come up?"

    Suzuki Yoshio looked at Kurita Takeo and asked.

    There is a deep conflict between land and sea. They used to transport soldiers to the army on troop carriers.  The Army was never allowed on their warships.

    The battle situation this time is a bit tight. If it is too late to mobilize so many troop transport ships, the only way to accommodate them is to let the army soldiers board their navy's warships.

    "Get on our warships? Humph! Those losers from the Army are not worthy of our warships! You go ahead and collect more troop transports and transport ships, and then let them take the transport ships.

    Unless His Majesty orders it, I will never let those losers board our warship!  "

    "Ha~yi~"

    "Your Excellency, Commander! General Sugiyama Enon sent a telegram that a large number of enemy planes are approaching us! However, the Eighty-Eighth Group Army mobilized a large number of aircraft to participate in the battle, and their Army Aviation has been completely suppressed!"

    At this moment, a staff officer carrying a command knife ran over quickly and said.

    "Na~Ni~ is coming closer to us? Do these people really think that they want to attack our powerful navy with a small plane?"

    It seemed that Kurita Takeo had heard a funny joke.  If the little devils in the world where giant ships and artillery doctrine is rampant can realize the power of aircraft, they will no longer promote giant ships and artillery.

    "Kurita-kun, even if China's small plane cannot threaten us, since he dares to come, it is a provocation to our navy, and we should shoot them down!"

    Suzuki Yoshio looked at Kurita Takeo and said solemnly.

    "Yo Xi! Give power to the Akagi and Kaga and have them retreat immediately behind us. Let them take off carrier-based aircraft to attack the Chinese aircraft. We must kill them.Fall!  "

    Kurita Takeo will soon pay the price for his arrogance.

    After a while, a large number of planes flew in from a distance.

    "Attention, all aircraft, our army is about to arrive at its destination, please lower its altitude immediately! Prepare to launch an attack on its aircraft carrier!"

    On a Stuka dive bomber, a captain spoke into the communicator in a deep voice.

    "receive!"

    "receive!"

    One after another, the Stuka dive bombers began to lower their altitude, and at this time, the Little Japanese carrier-based aircraft also flew over.

    At this time, there were only more than a hundred Zero fighters escorting the 675 Stuka dive bombers, and the strength of the two groups was still close.

    The rest of the Zero fighters were fighting against the Little Japanese Army Aviation over Shanghai.

    "But more than a hundred Zero fighters are enough.  The two aircraft carriers, the Kaga aircraft carrier and the Akagi aircraft carrier, have a total of 151 aircraft that can take off, including spare carrier-based aircraft.

    But there are still twenty-four bombers among them, so there are only one hundred and twenty-seven aircraft that can be used in combat.

    This also includes the 25 spare aircraft of the Akagi aircraft carrier.

    But now they only have a total of 102 aircraft left that can be used for combat, including reconnaissance aircraft.

    Because twenty-five aircraft were lost in supporting the army some time ago.

    As soon as the little devil's Hainan Airlines came up to meet them, more than a hundred Zero fighters who came to escort them also immediately came up to meet them.

    As soon as the two sides exchanged blows, Hainan Airlines felt full of pressure, and the carrier-based aircraft dropped like dumplings.

    The huge difference in aircraft performance makes HNA unable to resist.

    And these 675 Stuka dive bombers pounced directly on the little Japanese fleet.

    Nearly half of the Stuka dive bombers pounced on the two Japanese aircraft carriers.

    "Eight~Gah~ order all anti-aircraft firepower to be fully activated immediately!"

    When Kurita Takeo saw a plane coming over, he immediately became furious.

    But he didn¡¯t think these little planes could do him any harm.

    Kurita Takeo¡¯s order went down quickly, but the effect was really bad.  Before the Pacific War, the Japanese troops, whether it was the navy or the army, did not have much air defense firepower, and it could even be said to be a kind of decoration.

    So their little anti-aircraft firepower poses little threat to Stuka dive bombers!

    "Boom~"

    Suddenly, an explosion sounded next to him.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
