盟军解放者4发机群在爪哇登陆后把矛头对转了巨港一带的日军航空设施,企图利用4发轰炸机的航程优势突袭日军防御力量比较薄弱的后方二线机场,不料遭遇日军同一日正好转场过来的3个战斗机大队,于是本来轻松惬意的偷袭变成了一场苦战,经过激烈的战斗,日军战斗机击落了多达60架4发轰炸机和十多架护航的闪电战斗机,同时自损17架战斗机,虽然盟军还是对机场进行了打击,但是显然得不偿失。

当天比较不幸的是,雪藏已久的联合舰队主力舰队出动,在航渡过程中被盟军发现,在没有直掩的情况下遭遇到盟军水平轰炸机的跳弹攻击,多舰负伤,不过也击落了十多架敌机。但是舰队的行踪暴露了。

最后,在马尔努斯岛上奋战一个多星期的第60师团在盟军新锐增援上来一个陆军师之后终于崩溃,马尔努斯岛宣告失守,至此,从特鲁克到拉包尔和卡维恩的航线基本被切断,当地守军只能靠种水稻“现地自活”了。5 g0 h2 s* I9 f7 {) G4 r
