Chapter 354 Attack begins
Because the Fernando de Noronha Islands are far from the coastline, by the time the aircraft carrier fleet led by Fang Lang officially arrived off the island, it was already the early morning of the next day.
As the first ray of sunshine rose from the sea in the morning, the islands of Fernando de Noronha, which had been quiet for a day, revived again.
In the past few days, the Japanese on the island have been very happy.
As the prisoners on the island were wiped out one by one, the entire island was considered complete and fell into the hands of the Japanese.
Matsuura Ryota, a young Japanese who was awakened by morning urine, stretched his waist,
Staggeringly carrying a Mauser 98K rifle that is about the same length as his height.
Arriving at the edge of the cliff by the sea, he skillfully untied his belt, revealing a yellowed loincloth.
After fumbling for a while, he released the overnight inventory directly to the sea.
As the stock was released, the whole person let out a comfortable moan.
The orange-red sunlight on the sea level made Matsuura Ryota, who had half-squinted his eyes, simply close his eyes.
But suddenly, Matsuura Ryota closed his eyes abruptly, wondering if he had hallucinations just now.
Rubbing his eyes with his hands, he carefully closed the eyes into a small slit,
But I saw a few huge black shadows in the sunlight on the sea.
Because of the light problem, it doesn’t look real.
Thought it was because he didn’t wake up, Matsuura Ryota rubbed his hands vigorously on his face a few times.
He seemed to realize something, and hurriedly raised his head to look in the direction of the rising sun again.
I saw that there were indeed several huge black shadows on the sea surface, which were slowly getting bigger.
Although he has not participated in the war, he knows very well what it is.
Regardless of whether the opponent is an enemy or a friend, the opponent’s goal is obviously his side.
Matsuura Ryota, who understood all this, couldn’t care less about releasing the water. With one hand, he lifted his wet pants because of panic, and with the other hand, he held a rifle as long as his height, and hurriedly ran towards the camp.
shouted in panic:
“Warship, warship, a large number of warships appeared on the sea.
Mr. Mizuno, Mr. Kobayashi, there are warships on the sea. ”
The people in the camp just got up, looking at his embarrassed figure from a distance, they all wanted to come forward and make fun of him.
After hearing what he yelled, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
The whole camp was like a hot oil pan, and a spoonful of cold water was poured into it, and it boiled instantly.
The people who were still packing themselves up just now were in a mess, and some of them boldly ran to the beach, wanting to confirm the news of Ryota Matsuura.
More people ran to their shacks like headless flies, wanting to tell the news to everyone they could meet.
Xinyi Mizuno, who just woke up, also heard the bluffing and chaotic movements outside.
Still feeling very annoyed in my heart, I opened the door and shouted loudly:
“Baga! Early in the morning, what is the ghost calling?”
Soon he saw Matsuura Ryota, who was running towards him in embarrassment, with a horrified expression on his face.
and the camp was in disarray because of his shouting.
He was so angry that he wanted to curse.
But before he could open his mouth, he heard what the other party was shouting, and his face changed drastically.
Immediately understood the reason for the chaos in the camp.
However, he still forced himself to calm down and said:
“What’s the name of the ghost? Tell me something slowly.”
Ryota Matsuura saw Mizuno Shingi standing at the door, and rushed straight to Mizuno Xinyi without stopping, pointing with his hand in the direction of the rising sun in the east.
Breathing heavily, he said:
“Mr. Mizuno, warships, there are many warships on the sea.”
At this time, Hisaku Kobayashi, who lives in the small shack next to him, has also arrived at Mizuno Shingi’s door.
After hearing Matsuura Ryota’s words, his expression changed.
hurriedly asked:
“Which country’s warship is it, is it coming at us?”
Ryota Matsuura was completely stunned. How could he know this, but he rushed back to report the news as soon as he found a warship.
Now hearing Kobayashi Hisakusaku’s question, he can only shake his head in a daze and say:
“Ugh! I don’t know!”
Mizuno Shingi also asked hastily:
“Are they ashore?”
“Not yet, there is still a little distance from us.”
Hearing Matsuura Ryota’s words, Mizuno Shingi said dissatisfiedly:
“Then why are you yelling, maybe you are passing by?”
But Hisaku Kobayashi on the side looked ugly, he was not as optimistic as Mizuno Xinyi.
This is the territorial waters of Brazil, how could there be warships from other countries passing by!
As if to confirm Kobayashi Hisakusaku’s guess, the roar of the plane came from the sky.
Two reconnaissance planes flew straight in the direction of their camp.
There were a few bold Japanese in the camp, they directly raised their weapons and fired directly at the plane in the sky.
But the speed of the plane is very fast. It is basically more difficult to focus on the plane in the sky with a rifle than to win a lottery.
At this moment, the pilot of the reconnaissance plane flying in the sky is exactly the Brazilian HNA pilot Sam Dudley who used the plane to reconnoitre the Fernando de Noronha Islands for the first time.
Seeing the Japanese on the island firing at his reconnaissance plane, he smiled disdainfully, and called out on the radio indifferently:
“The hummingbird calls the eagle’s nest.
Confirm the location of the enemy camp, bearing 023.
Above the camp, the Japanese flag is clearly visible.
The enemy has weapons and is shooting at our aircraft,
Apply for counterattack, complete! ”
A reply came from the communicator:
“Eagle’s Nest receives, Hummingbird fights back to dismiss.
Your task is to ensure the safety of the reporters on the wingman, and protect the reporters to record all the situations on the island.
Finished! ”
Sam Dudley let out a sigh of dissatisfaction and some helplessness, and glanced at another reconnaissance plane behind him.
He knew there was a reporter with a camera on it,
At this moment, the camera above him should be looking at the Japanese camp on the island.
Again, connect to the communicator:
“Hummingbird, receive.
In the enemy camp, the enemy is gathering, you can start bombing, over. ”
“Eagle’s Nest received!
The bomber is taking off, Hummingbird, please pay attention to monitor the battlefield.
Report the enemy’s position at any time and guide the target for the attack. ”
“Hummingbird understands!
Hummingbirds are gaining altitude,
Waiting for the bomber to approach, it’s over! ”
Just when Sam Dudley contacted the aircraft carrier, Hisaku Kobayashi in the camp already knew that he was in trouble this time.
Since the afternoon before yesterday, when a plane was flying around the island, he felt abnormal.
As a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War, he has no experience in air defense operations.
So, there is no good way to deal with the planes in the sky, but I just instinctively raised my vigilance.
I didn’t expect the situation to change so quickly. The two planes in the sky today are obviously different from the last two planes.
Didn’t fly around, but kept circling around the camp.
He knew very well in his heart that the Brazilian army discovered the situation on the island,
The warship in the sea seems to have come to attack him and the others.
“Mizuno-kun, we were discovered by the Brazilians.
It seems that the enemy warship is coming at us. ”
Xinyi Mizuno had already reacted at this time, looked at the two planes in the sky, and said in a slightly flustered tone:
“Xiao Lin-kun, what should we do now?”
After all, he was just an ordinary person, and when he heard the enemy’s naval fleet coming towards him, he felt a little panicked.
But it’s no wonder, he is very aware of his own strength.
They only had more than 300 guns in total, but the opponent sent a warship directly.
The two sides are not at the same level at all.
Now the only person here with actual combat experience is Kobayashi Hisaku, so he can only pin his hopes on Kobayashi Hisaku.
Kobayashi Hisaku said in a deep voice:
“Surrender or resist!
It depends on what Mizuno-kun wants to choose. ”
Upon hearing the surrender, Mizuno Shingi immediately shook his head and said:
“Impossible, I will never surrender.
The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire will never surrender to the enemy. ”
Mizuno Shingi, who has already surrendered once, has a very firm attitude, and he will never surrender again this time.
The last time he surrendered, he lost everything. Even if he was killed this time, he would not surrender.
Seeing Mizuno Shinichi’s attitude, Kobayashi Hisaku nodded in satisfaction,
As a veteran, he also did not agree to surrender.
“Then let’s assemble our team and build a defense line by the sea,
Beat back all the Brazilians who tried to land on the island. ”
Mizuno Shinichi also gritted his teeth, and said fiercely:
“Then we’ll fight these Brazilians.”
After finishing speaking, he said to the few Japanese people who had already surrounded him:
“Assemble the team, we will drive all the enemies who try to land on the island into the sea.”
When the people around heard that the two had made a decision, they did not hesitate, and agreed in unison:
“Hay!”
Then they turned around and assembled the team.
The reconnaissance plane that has been circling around them can naturally clearly see the scene where their personnel are gathering.
At this moment, Sam Dudley didn’t know what to say,
How much you look down on me!
actually swaggered and assembled in front of me. If the officer didn’t allow me to attack you directly, the machine gun on my plane could wipe you all out.
Actually, these Japanese cannot be blamed for this, Brazil has never experienced war at all.
The air force was established with the support of the Americans because of the reason for participating in the war.
These Japanese who have been living in Brazil, of course, have no chance to know how the Air Force fights.
There is no awareness of air defense at all, and even many Japanese are looking at the two planes in the sky as if they were watching a show.
Muttering in his heart, what are the two planes circling around themselves wanting to do.
Just as the Japanese assembled their teams, another six planes flew over from the sky not far away.
Of the six planes, two were fighters and only four were bombers.
Originally, in this situation, there was no need for two fighter jets to escort.
But as a commander, Fang Lang felt that this was an opportunity to train troops.
If all the bombers were on the field, it would be embarrassing to clear the Japanese in a round of bombing.
There is no way to implement the subsequent battle plan.
So, in accordance with normal combat procedures, two fighter jets were sent to escort.
With the guidance of the reconnaissance plane, the four bombers flew directly over the camp and dropped bombs on the camp one by one in order.
Because the camp was too small, each plane had only time to drop two aerial bombs.
The Japanese who were gathering on the ground also noticed several planes flying in the distance.
Kobayashi Hisaku saw that these planes did not circle around their own camp like the two previous planes, but instead rushed towards their camp in a straight line.
Instinctively aware of the danger.
Before he had time to think about it, he shouted:
“Spread out, hide!”
But the Japanese on the ground obviously didn’t have his sense of crisis, except for a few people who habitually obeyed orders and dispersed.
Most of the others looked blankly at the plane in the sky.
A large number of people raised their weapons and fired directly at the approaching plane.
Soon someone found the aerial bomb dropped from the plane.
“Hey! These planes are laying eggs.”
Don’t blame these people for being rare and strange. Most of the Japanese immigrants to Brazil are farmers.
The main work of everyone in Brazil is farming, and there is no opportunity to contact the outside world.
There are even many people here who can’t even speak Portuguese, and have been living in a relatively closed environment.
There are not many opportunities for them to get in touch with the latest knowledge outside.
So, when they saw the plane for the first time, they didn’t realize the danger at all.
When the first aerial bomb fell straight towards them, everyone realized the danger.
began to flee in all directions, and the speed at which they could escape was obviously not as fast as the falling speed of the aerial bombs.
With a bang, a huge fireball burst open.
The powerful shock wave knocked down everything around, and the shrapnel flying around directly knocked the shacks in the camp away.
People near the explosion point were directly blown into pieces, and people further away were also thrown into the air like a ball, and then fell heavily to the ground. Blood flowed from their mouths and noses, and they were obviously seriously injured and died.
The violent explosion made everyone in the camp instantly deaf.
A huge pothole several meters deep was left on the ground.
Everyone in the camp woke up instantly from their daze, and everyone started fleeing desperately.
This is only the first aerial bomb explosion, the first round of bombing by four planes, and each plane dropped two aerial bombs.
The first wave of attack is eight aerial bombs.
After the attack, the camp was in a mess, only some people who had been bombarded were left in place at a loss.
Sam Dudley, who was far in the air, couldn’t help but click his tongue when he saw this effect.
After all, there are no reinforced concrete fortifications here, and the consequences of being directly hit by aerial bombs are quite terrifying.
The Japanese camp was blown out of eight huge pits.
The deep pit was pitch black, surrounded by **** limbs, and corpses carbonized by the high temperature at the moment of the explosion.
Because there are dense jungles here, some of the shock waves of the aerial bombs were absorbed by the trees, which saved many Japanese from being directly killed by the bombs.
But also, it is also because the trees are impacted by the shock wave and shrapnel of the bomb, causing more sawdust to fly around.
Some broken branches easily pierced through the human body, of course this is only a minority,
Most sawdust caused injuries and blood flow.
Kobayashi Hisaku has the fastest reaction. Although he has never experienced plane bombing, he has a very keen sense of danger.
As soon as he sensed the danger, he pulled Mizuno Xinyi who was still in a daze, and ran into the jungle desperately.
This allowed them to escape the first wave of bombing.
