Chapter 199 Come on, Jennifer
Over the Haleiwa Airport, a dozen Japanese bombers were constantly diving and bombing.
The runway is full of potholes and charred marks everywhere, and the surrounding warehouses are full of bullet holes and signs of bomb attacks.
A P40 had just started its engine and started to use afterburners. Two Type 99s behind it were swooping down and sweeping with machine guns.
Bang bang bang bang! ! ! boom! ! !
The P40 that had just started was exploded on the ground, and parts of the aircraft were scattered all over the floor.
This is already the third fighter jet that was blown up on the runway while trying to force take off.
A plane parked on the ground is a live target for attackers. Some brave pilots hope to force the plane into the air, but no one can succeed.
Woooooooo~~~~Boom! ! ! !
An 800-kilogram aerial bomb hit an aircraft warehouse again. The fuel inside exploded, and the staff who were trying to put out the fire were also involved.
"Hoo~ho~" Jennifer ran out of a burning house panting, running forward in a panic but not knowing where to hide.
Boom! ! ! ! Another bomb exploded in the nearby warehouse, and the heat wave that hit her pushed her to the ground. A soldier with a blackened appearance was brought to her eyes by the airflow and fell heavily to the ground. A large piece of glass was stuck in the On the soldier's thigh with his eyes closed, bright red blood flowed down and formed a puddle in front of Jennifer's eyes.
Tear~ The broadcaster girl tore her skirt and stretched out her hand to bandage the other party's wound, but found that the cloth strip on her hand was soaked with blood in just an instant.
It’s hopeless...
Thud, tug, tug! ! ! !
In an air defense position nearby, two soldiers wearing short vests operated 40mm anti-aircraft guns to fight back at the aircraft in the sky, and a Zero flew over in a dive.
Puff puff puff puff puff puff puff! ! ! ! Under the strafing fire from the 20mm cannon, bursts of blood mist were set off on the air defense positions.
Some soldiers picked up their Thompson submachine guns and fired into the sky, but the bullets just streaked through the air meaninglessly.
The Zero circled around and dived again!
Can’t run away!
The white rising sun flag in Jennifer's eyes is constantly growing. She regrets it very much now. If she could go back half an hour, if she could believe Welch, if she could tell everyone on the radio earlier that the Japanese are coming. Will everything be a little different?
She doesn’t know.
When she was in danger, a strange thought appeared in the girl's mind. She had known that she should have agreed to go on a date with that guy Welch.
Bang bang bang bang bang! ! ! ! ! ! !
The wind howled, and the three fighting planes flew side by side. The red pirate fighter took the lead, and the ferocious fire poured down. The diving Zero was blown up in the air and crashed into the warehouse on the ground.
Fire shot into the sky!
Thud, tug, tug, tug! ! ! !
The other two P40 fighter jets followed closely and used their own machine guns to disperse the bombing Type 99 group.
After the strafing, the two P40s slowly descended. One of them was obviously not in good condition. It landed crookedly like a clumsy duck and rushed out of the runway when it landed (although The runway is useless now)
Another P40 also stopped immediately. Welch opened his cockpit and shouted, "Someone help! My plane has no fuel! Taylor is injured! We need a doctor!" No one answered. Under the reciprocal bombing by Japanese planes, there are not many people here who can stand up now.
Only Jennifer who was standing aside was stunned and ran up to help Welch open the cockpit of another P40. They found that the cockpit cover had been shattered by bullets, and Taylor's dashboard It was completely broken, and a piece of glass was inserted into his chest, and he fell into a semi-conscious state after landing.
“We have to send him to the hospital immediately, otherwise it will be too late.” Welch took his friend out of the cockpit.
"But, but..." Jennifer sniffed and looked in the direction of the hospital, which was close to the port and where the explosion was the most violent.
“Baby, listen to me.” Welch held Jennifer’s cheeks with both hands, “I know you can drive, so now I can only rely on you.”
"Baby, drive Taylor to the hospital, you can do it, believe me, you can do it!"
Jennifer wiped the dust off her face with the back of her hand and drew a long line, Finally, he nodded as if he had made great determination, and then asked, "What about you?"
"I have to help He, he can't handle it alone." Welch looked up at the sky.
As soon as he finished speaking, the red pirates led two Zeros to get entangled in the sky again. After a while, they got into the clouds again, and the roar of machine guns came from the sky.
After saying that, Welch jumped off the plane to help Jennifer carry Taylor to the jeep, and then drove a fuel truck to replenish fuel for his plane.
"It's up to you, sweetheart." The frivolous American lieutenant gave the girl a thumbs-up gesture, and then controlled his P40 to take off again.
A few minutes later, a jeep rushed out of the camp carrying the injured Taylor. Jennifer kicked off her high heels and stepped on the accelerator with her stockinged feet.
Two fighter jets, one red and one green, flew through the air behind them, escorting the jeep.
——
At the Pearl Harbor military port, explosions were heard one after another on the pier. The usually peaceful sea now looked like a pot of boiling beetroot soup.
Along with the roar of anti-aircraft guns, dozens of black shadows flew past. Those were the Japanese Type 97 carrier-based torpedo attack aircraft.
After passing through the not-so-dense firepower, the torpedo attack aircraft began to drop bombs horizontally, and several white water lines on the sea quickly approached various types of warships that could not maneuver.
Boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! A destructive explosion sounded on the sea, and the battleship USS Arizona was detonated in the middle. A turret about the size of a frigate was blown up. The Arizona was like entering the end of the world, and the hull of the battleship emitted an explosion. With a huge groan, it began to sink into the water.
Pearl Harbor is a shallow water port. Only three-quarters of the Arizona's huge hull was submerged underwater, but this was even worse. The personnel on duty in the engine room and sailor's room were directly trapped and died in the leaking hull. Many people died painfully due to suffocation.
The same thing happened to the USS Maryland, USS Pennsylvania, and USS West Virginia.
These once invincible steel behemoths on the sea are now as fragile as beached whales, fragile and helpless.
But perhaps it was God's favor. The previous broadcast brought at least 70% of the sailors to the small square. There were not as many officers on duty on the ship as at the beginning, so many people who should have died escaped.
However, not everyone is so lucky.
