( c: o' G" B3 i0 Q5 c1 F. k; c万鸦老，位于苏拉威西岛东北角，是该岛第二大城市，风景优美气候宜人。不过蝗军看上此地并不是因为其美景，而是因为其绝佳的地理位置。其位于南洋诸岛核心，与巴厘巴板、肯达里、安文等重要据点的距离都不远，均处于零战作战范围之内。初始3级机场，一旦控制万鸦老并入驻岸基航空兵，内南洋将被陆攻彻底封锁，后续登陆作战都可以保持在陆攻航程内进行，难度大大下降，因此蝗军将占领该地作为首要目标。* }, A9 w) t, L) @1 }, D/ o p
南洋作战开始后，日军以龙骧号为核心的miniKB直接通过棉兰老岛南部海域，插向南洋腹地，意图以较快速度肃清万鸦老附近海域，掩护登陆部队快速占领该重镇，作为控制内南洋的核心基地。" n) A& ~1 w$ `# ]$ n( M

没有预料到的是，盟军准确的判明了蝗军意图，非常强硬在此地投入了初期最宝贵的包含重巡休斯顿在内的主力水面舰队严密防守。同时用从菲律宾撤下P40机队争夺制空权。一场激烈的海空大战随即展开, l' I4 f' u8 R

12月9日，先行到达的miniKB轰炸了一队盟军DD，拉开了万鸦老海战的序幕。但这次轰炸也暴露了日军的作战意图，盟军海空力量随后快速向该地集结。! C% B" l! C8 E d% L7 V

次日，重巡妙高、轻巡长良领衔的日突击舰队杀入万鸦老，意图肃清此地附近的盟军舰只，与闻讯赶来的多只盟军舰队大打出手。 5 D$ t x5 n# ^) ~- @
入夜后，日舰队进入万鸦老海域，首先发现的是昨天被miniKB击伤的4DD驱逐编队，盟军显然没有做好迎击准备，两艘受伤的DD被当场击沉，其余两艘快速逃离，日舰队几乎无损。0 j! j- G6 S/ L/ }8 r

但盟军并没有轻易放弃该海域的制海权，天亮后，重巡休斯顿、轻巡博弈西、马波海得带领一干小弟突入，双方大打出手，虽然日军连夜作战后异常疲劳，但依然发挥了高超的作战技术，打的休斯顿号燃起大火，盟军其余舰只也大多受伤。但日军这边妙高号被集火命中6弹，英勇负伤。
