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 coast of the island, it was already early morning of the next day.

As the first rays of sunlight rose from the sea in the early morning, the Fernando de Noronha Islands, which had been quiet for a day, came back to life.

In recent days, the Japanese on the island have been living very happily.

As the prisoners on the island were cleared out one by one, the entire island was completely in the hands of the Japanese.

Japanese youth Ryota Matsuura, who was awakened by the urge to urinate in the morning, stretched his body lazily.

He was carrying a Mauser 98K rifle that was almost as long as he was, staggering on his back.

He came to the edge of the cliff by the sea and skillfully untied his belt, revealing a loincloth that had already turned a little yellow.

After a while of groping, they released the night's stock directly into the sea.

As the stock was released, the whole person let out a comfortable groan.

...

...

The orange-red sunlight on the sea level made Ryota Matsuura, who had half-closed his eyes, simply close his eyes.

But suddenly, Matsuura Ryota stopped closing his eyes, wondering if he had just had a hallucination.

He rubbed his eyes with his hands and carefully squinted them into a small slit.

But I saw several huge black shadows in the sunlight on the sea.

Because of the lighting, it doesn't look clear.

Thinking that he had not woken up yet, Matsuura Ryota rubbed his face vigorously with his hands.

He seemed to realize something and hurriedly looked up again in the direction where the sun was rising.

I saw several huge black shadows on the sea, which were slowly growing larger.

Although he had never participated in the war, he knew very well what it was.

Regardless of whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, their target is obviously us.

Knowing all this, Ryota Matsuura had no time to relax. He held up his pants that were soaked with urine due to panic with one hand, and held the rifle that was as long as him with the other hand, and hurriedly ran towards the camp.

He shouted in panic:

"Warships, warships, a large number of warships appeared on the sea.

Mr. Mizuno, Mr. Kobayashi, there are warships on the sea."

The people in the camp who had just woken up looked at his disheveled figure from afar and wanted to go up and make fun of him.

But after hearing what he shouted, everyone's faces changed drastically.

The entire camp was like a boiling oil pan into which a spoonful of cold water was poured, and it boiled instantly.

The people who had just been leisurely packing up their belongings were now in a mess. Some of the brave ones ran to the beach to confirm the news about Ryota Matsuura.

More people ran to their own shacks like headless flies, wanting to tell the news to everyone they could meet.

Mizuno Xinyi, who had just woken up, also heard the commotion and chaos outside.

Still feeling very angry, he pushed open the door and shouted:

"Baga! What the hell are you yelling about so early in the morning?"

Soon he saw Ryota Matsuura running towards him in a panic with a look of fear on his face.

and the camp was thrown into chaos by 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 instantly.

I immediately understood why the camp was in such a mess.

However, he still managed to remain calm and said:

"What are you yelling about? Tell me what you have to say slowly."

When Ryota Matsuura saw Mizuno Nobuyoshi standing at the door, he rushed directly to Mizuno Nobuyoshi and pointed his finger in the direction of the rising sun in the east.

He gasped and said:

"Mr. Mizuno, warships, there are many warships on the sea."

At this time, Kobayashi Hisasaku, who lived in a small shack nearby, had also arrived at Mizuno Nobuyoshi's door.

After hearing what Matsuura Ryota said, his face changed.

He quickly asked:

"Which country's warship is this? Is it heading towards us?"

Ryota Matsuura was completely frightened and had no idea about these things. He just ran back to report the news as soon as he saw the warship.

Now hearing Kobayashi Hisasaku's question, he could only shake his head in confusion:

"Ugh! I don't know!"

Mizuno Xinyi also hurriedly asked:

"Have they come ashore?"

"Not yet. We are still a little far away."

Hearing what Matsuura Ryota said, Mizuno Nobuyoshi said dissatisfiedly:

"Then why are you yelling? Maybe you are just passing by?"

But Kobayashi Hisasaku on the side had a grim look on his face. He was not as optimistic as Mizuno Nobuyoshi.

This is Brazilian territorial waters, how could warships from other countries pass by!

As if to confirm Kobayashi Hisasaku's guess, the roar of an airplane was heard in the sky.

Two reconnaissance planes were flying straight towards their camp.

There were a few brave Japanese in the camp who raised their weapons and fired directly at the planes in the sky.

But planes are moving very fast, and trying to hit a plane in the sky with a rifle is basically more difficult than winning the lottery.

At this moment, the pilot of the reconnaissance plane flying in the sky was Sam Dudley, a Brazilian naval aviation pilot who was the first to use an aircraft to conduct reconnaissance of the Fernando de Noronha Islands.

Seeing that the Japanese on the island were firing at his reconnaissance plane, he smiled disdainfully and called out on the radio without caring:

“The hummingbird calls to the eagle’s nest.

Confirmed the location of the enemy camp, direction 023.

Above the camp, the Japanese flag is clearly visible.

The enemy has weapons and is firing dispersal shots at our aircraft.

Request for counterattack, over!"

The reply came from the communicator:

“Eagle’s Nest received, Hummingbird fired back and demanded a rebuttal.

Your mission is to ensure the safety of the reporters on the wingman and protect them to record all the situations on the island.

complete!"

Sam Dudley let out a sigh of dissatisfaction and helplessness, and glanced at the other reconnaissance plane behind him.

He knew there was a reporter with a camera up there.

At this moment, the camera above him should be facing the Japanese camp on the island.

Once again, he connected the communicator and said:

“Hummingbird, read it.

The enemy is gathering in the enemy camp, you can start bombing, over."

“Eagle’s Nest received!

The bombers are taking off. Hummingbird, please pay attention and monitor the battlefield.

Report the enemy's position at any time to guide the target for attack."

“Hummingbird understands!

The hummingbird is gaining altitude,

Waiting for bombers to come in, over!"

Just as Sam Dudley was contacting the aircraft carrier, Kobayashi Hisasaku in the camp already knew that he was in great danger.

He had sensed something unusual since the afternoon before yesterday, when a plane was flying around the island.

But as a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War, he had no experience in air defense operations.

Therefore, there is no good way to deal with planes in the sky, we just instinctively become more vigilant.

I didn't expect the situation to change so quickly. The two planes in the sky today are obviously different from the previous two planes.

It did not fly around randomly, but kept circling around its own camp.

He knew very well that the Brazilian army had discovered the situation on the island.

It seemed that the warships in the sea were coming to attack them.

“Mizuno-kun, we have been discovered by the Brazilians.

It seems that the enemy's warships are heading for us."

Mizuno Xinyi had also reacted by this time. Looking at the two planes in the sky, he said in a slightly panicked tone:

"Xiaolin-kun, what should we do now?"

After all, he was just an ordinary person. When he heard the enemy's naval fleet coming towards him, he became a little panicked.

But this is no wonder, he is very clear about his own strength.

They only had more than 300 guns in total, while their opponents directly sent warships.

The two sides are simply not on the same level.

The only one with practical experience here is Kobayashi Hisasaku, so he can only place his hopes on Kobayashi Hisasaku.

Kobayashi Hisasaku said in a deep voice:

"Surrender or resist!

It depends on what choice Mizuno-kun wants to make. "

Upon hearing the surrender, Mizuno Nobuyoshi immediately shook his head and said:

"No way, I will never surrender.

The warriors of the Empire of Japan will never surrender to the enemy."

Mizuno Nobuyoshi, who had surrendered once, was very determined and would never surrender again this time.

The last time he surrendered he lost everything, this time even if he was beaten to death he would not surrender.

Seeing Mizuno Nobuyoshi's attitude, Kobayashi Hisasaku nodded with satisfaction.

As a veteran, he also disagreed with surrender.

"Then we will gather our troops and build a defense line on the seashore.

Fight back any Brazilians who attempt to land on the island."

Mizuno Xinyi also gritted his teeth and said fiercely:

"Then let's fight these Brazilians."

After saying this, he said to the Japanese who had gathered around him:

"Gather the troops, we will drive all enemies who try to land on the island into the sea."

When the people around heard that the two had made their decision, they did not hesitate and responded in unison:

"Hayi!"

Then he turned around and started to assemble the team.

The reconnaissance plane that had been circling around them could naturally clearly see the scene of their personnel gathering.

At this time, Sam Dudley didn't know what to say.

How much you look down on me!

You actually assembled in front of me in such a brazen manner. If my commander had not forbidden me to attack you directly, I would have wiped you all out with the machine guns on my plane.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on the Japanese. Brazil has never experienced war.

The air force was established with the support of the Americans because of participation in the war.

Of course, these Japanese who have been living in Brazil have no chance to know how the air force fights.

There was absolutely no awareness of air defense, and many Japanese even looked at the two planes in the sky as if they were watching a show.

I wondered in my mind what these two planes were trying to do by circling around me.

Just as the Japanese were gathering their troops, six more planes flew over from the nearby horizon.

Among the six planes, two were fighters and only four were bombers.

Under normal circumstances, there is no need for two fighter jets to escort.

But as the commander, Fang Lang felt that this was an opportunity to train his troops.

If all the planes were bombers, it would be embarrassing if the Japanese were wiped out in one round of bombing.

The subsequent battle plans could not be carried out.

Therefore, according to normal combat procedures, two fighter jets were sent out for 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 so small, each plane only had time to drop two bombs.

The Japanese who were gathering on the ground also noticed several planes flying in the distance.

Kobayashi Hisasaku saw that these planes did not circle around his camp like the two planes before him, but instead lined up straight and rushed towards his camp.

I instinctively sensed the danger.

Without time to think, he shouted:

"Spread out and hide!"

But the Japanese on the ground obviously did not have the same sense of crisis as him, except for a few people who were accustomed to following orders and dispersed.

Most of the others looked at the plane in the sky with a confused look on their faces.

A large number of people raised their weapons and opened fire directly at the approaching planes.

Soon someone discovered the bombs dropped from the plane.

"Hey! These planes laid eggs."

Don't blame these people for being surprised by what they see. Most of the Japanese immigrants to Brazil are farmers.

Everyone’s main job in Brazil is farming, and there is no chance to contact the outside world.

There are even many people here who cannot speak Portuguese and have been living in a relatively closed environment.

They don't have many opportunities to access the latest knowledge outside.

So, when they saw an airplane for the first time, they didn't realize the danger at all.

When the first bomb fell straight towards them, everyone realized the danger.

They began to flee in all directions, but their speed was obviously not as fast as the speed at which the bombs were dropped.

With a "boom", a huge fireball exploded.

The powerful shock wave blew down everything around it, and the flying shrapnel directly blew away the shacks in the camp.

People near the explosion point were blown into pieces, and people who were a little further away were thrown into the air like a ball, and then fell heavily to the ground, bleeding from their mouths and noses. It was obvious that they were seriously injured and died.

The violent explosion instantly deafened everyone in the camp.

A huge hole several meters deep was left on the ground.

Everyone in the camp was instantly awakened from their stupor and began to flee in all directions desperately.

This was just the first bomb explosion. It was the first round of bombing by four planes, and each plane dropped two bombs.

The first wave of attack consisted of eight bombs.

After the attack, the camp was in ruins, with only a few people who were stunned by the explosion still left there, not knowing what to do.

Sam Dudley, who was far away in the air, couldn't help but be amazed when he saw this effect.

After all, there are no reinforced concrete fortifications here, and the consequences of being directly hit by an aerial bomb are quite terrifying.

Eight huge deep pits were blown out in the Japanese camp.

The deep pit was pitch black, and all around it were blood, body parts, and corpses carbonized by the high temperature of the explosion.

Because there were dense jungles here, some of the shock waves from the bombs were absorbed by the big trees, which saved many Japanese from being directly killed.

But at the same time, because the trees were impacted by the shock waves and shrapnel of the bomb, more wood chips flew everywhere.

Some broken branches easily pierced human bodies, but of course this was only a minority.

Most of the wood chips caused injuries and bleeding.

Kobayashi Hisasaku had the fastest reaction. Although he had never experienced an air bombing, his intuition about danger was very sharp.

The moment he sensed danger, he pulled up the dazed Mizuno Nobuyoshi and ran into the jungle desperately.

This allowed them to escape the first wave of bombing.
