继前两日一举压制了帝国在东帝汶的主要核心基地劳腾港机场之后,盟军庞大的58舰队掩护着登陆船队徐徐向着北方海域前行,直接越过了驻有兵力的saumlaki,taberfane,dobo以及kai-eilanden4岛组成的新几内亚西部龟头地区第一道防线,猛插向更北方向,出产原油的boela港。" z h" o6 e2 p8 {- O2 f- |5 R
i7 B/ {' `: {帝国东帝汶——新几内亚西部地域防御司令部此前在战斗中已经判断盟军58将要展开新一次的登陆行动,但是地点未明,此时司令部参谋人员根据盟军58的行动路线推断盟军可能有越岛攻击的打算。- o2 Z& t) Q# h) `

龟头一带的日军核心据点乃是大名鼎鼎的比亚克基地,虽然在历史上由于马里亚纳海战的惨败,比亚克基地并没有发挥出太大的作用,但是实际上这个地点是可以控扼盟军龟背和龟腹两路进攻路线上的交点所在,从龟背方向进攻,必须会面对比亚克横亘在路上,而从龟腹的进攻,也会面临驻扎在比亚克基地的航空队的严重威胁,因此,帝国前期已经在比亚克基地投入重兵,不仅优先调集了工兵部队将当地和附近的机场都扩建起来,而且在达尔文失守后,此地的航空兵力也被大大加强了,是不亚于劳腾港的核心据点之一。1 [+ L) a! m! m

第一波攻击波过后,尽管已经遭受到重大损失,但是紧接着从比亚克起飞的陆基攻击机队也赶到了战场,来不及集合队形便遭遇到直掩机的拦截,不得不分批投入战斗,也陷入了如第一波攻击一样的苦斗之中。

上午的战斗以日军部队付出重大代价,命中9艘盟军军舰暂告一段落,出击的日本攻击队大部分都已经烟消云散,坠落到大海之中。而盟军损失的飞机是很轻微的,此时来看,似乎另一场马里亚纳猎火鸡已经不可避免了,但是,此时,帝国的海航健儿们没有放弃!加贺号旗舰上的舰队指挥官们没有放弃!大本营的参谋们也没有放弃!,抓紧每一分每一秒时间修理,整备,于下午再次从KB母舰上发出当天第三波也是最后一波舰载机攻击波,共259架战斗机掩护232架流星改舰攻腾空而起,如一支利剑般直插58舰队。
