Soon, the troops were given the signal to attack. The Invasion force immediately rushed towards the enemy, as the battleships stopped firing their guns.

The submarines that survived finally decided to retreat; however, they broadcasted a radio transmission as they left. The (Japanese) transmission, over a public channel said, "Mission Accomplished. I repeat, Mission Accomplished. All surviving submarines, except I-401 are returning to Invasion Fleet 1 for refueling and.....Dang it, wrong channel...."
OOC: The transmission was a pre-arranged broadcast meant as an extra step to get more ATCO forces to protect Midway and away from Hawaii.

Wake Island Naval Air Station and Marine Base
The Marines and other personnel fire at the oncoming Dragomerian troops. With the small remaining force, they try desperately to hold a perimeter around the airfield. Low on ammunition, they fire until their ammunition runs dry. At 3:15 PM, Major Eckert sends one final message: "Wake island garrison has fallen. All defenses have been wiped out and all other facilities have been devastated." Him and another Marine then destroy the communications equipment and then destroy the documents with an incendiary grenade. At 3:45 PM local time, the last 48 defenders of Wake Island surrender. 28 Marines, 10 Army Coastal Artillerymen, and 10 Naval personnel finally surrender. Many of them were wounded.
However, over the horizon, the Washingtonian strike aircraft from the carriers ROWS Arlington (CV-2) and ROWS Erie CV-7) begin to start their attack runs. The torpedo bombers and dive bombers head after the Dragomerian aircraft carriers while Torpedo Squadron 2 from the Arlington heads after the Musashi.
Midway Island Naval Air Station
Word is received that Wake Island has fallen. The signal is then sent to the fleet and to Bremerton that Wake Island has fallen to the Dragomerian Empire. They receive a signal the following day from an I-400 submarine discussing refueling operations and rendezvous locations. Th information is passed onto JPAAC headquarter in Bremerton. In the meantime, radar installations are constantly on the lookout for incoming Dragomerian aircraft. Fighters are constantly on combat patrols and destroyers regularly patrol the waters.
Bremerton Naval Station
Admiral Fowler receives news that Wake Island has fallen. Now faced with a tough decision, he is forced to make a decision to commit his fleet to defend Midway or the Hawaiian Islands. He contacts his respected equals in the Ascoobian military on the situation in Hawaii before making a final commitment. In the meantime though, Midway will receive additional defenses. From mines, to shore guns, to Marines, to aircraft, to more radar. The carrier fleet sent to Midway is to stay and help defend it. The strike group sent to Wake is ordered to recover their planes and withdraw to Midway.

Above the Fleet, Second Invasion Fleet, near Wake Island, March 15, 1940
The First wave of Zeros engaged the F4F-3 fighters. The Second wave of Zeros went for enemy aircraft that were heading to the Fleet. Half of the Zeros in this wave went for the dive bombers, while the others went for the torpedo bombers. The ships of the Fleet were prepared to fire their AA guns when the enemy fighters get within range. Meanwhile, Admiral Ichijoji waited to see the outcome, as the close-ship strategy was being tested. He hoped that the closeness of the ships to each other would prevent enemy torpedoes from hitting their desired target. Every ship was now firing their AA guns at the approaching aircraft.

The F4F-3 Fighters do their best to hold back at least half of the Zero's, downing a few in the process. The TBD-1 Devastators of the Torpedo Squadron 2 come under attack by some of the A6M2 Zeros diving down from above. Six of the 16 Torpedo planes are shot down before reaching their target. Six more released their torpedoes but some broke up on impact or failed to run. Four however did manage to drop their torpedoes successfully and they streaked towards Musashi. The Dive bombers manage to get to their attack positions, though six are lost to the marauding Zeroes. Some however become preoccupied with trying to shake the Zeros off their tail. Some begin their runs on the carriers down below.
En-route to the Scarlet Shogunate
The eight Submarines sent to attack shipping in Southeast Asia stop at Midway to refuel before proceeding. They hope that this campaign will force the Dragomerians to commit forces away from North Amwell and the Central Pacific in order to assist the Scarlet Shogunate. Meanwhile, the fleet from Bremerton closes in on Midway to assist in it's defense, though some may head to the Hawaiian islands.

Above the Fleet, Second Invasion Fleet, near Wake Island, March 15, 1940
The Zeros continued their assault on the enemy dive bombers and torpedo bombers. The Zeros were getting closer to their targets. The pilots of the Zeros became more and more ferocious as time ticked on. The Enemy's torpedoes sped towards the cluster of ships that surrounded the Musashi. Three of the torpedoes hit and crippled a light cruiser and one hit and sunk a destroyer. Above the aircraft carriers, some of the Zeros pursued the dive bombers that were already preoccupied with them, while others followed the bombers that were about to drop their rounds. The Zeros pursuing them were counting on (and anticipating that) those bombers being too preoccupied on their bombing runs to counter the Zeros; however, they would not know if their assumption was right until after the bombers finished dropping their payloads. After the bombers dropped their payloads, the 45kg bombs (ooc: I checked what they could carry), the bombs fell towards the carriers. Some bombs detonated prematurely, but some hit the concrete decks, causing damage to the flight decks and destroying a total of two triple 250 mm AA Guns and one twin 127 mm Gun.
OOC: I am guessing the number of aircraft that were able to drop their payloads onto the carriers. F4F-3's carried 2x 45 kg bombs or 2x 220 L drop tanks in RL. This post assumes that there were maybe 6-8 aircraft able to do it and that the specs for the F4F-3 are the same as in RL. Please correct me on any incorrect assumptions I made in this post.
OOC2: I can not respond to the second part until you actually sink ships with them.

Having completed their runs, most of the surviving strike aircraft disengage and head back to the carriers. All but Torpedo Squadron 7 of the ROWS Erie (CV-7) leave. Torpedo Squadron 7 bores in on the carriers while the fighters were preoccupied with the fighters and Torpedo Squadron 2. Taking heavy AA fire, ten of the 20 Devastators manage to get their torpedoes running in the water towards the carriers before beating a retreat.
Outside of Spokane, Washington, March 21, 1940
The Army Air Force assembles the 1st, 15th, 33rd, and 45th Fighter groups into the 1st Fighter Wing. The 1st Heavy, 6th Medium, and 19th Heavy are organized into the 1st Bomber Wing. The 30th Heavy, 48th Medium, and 53rd Medium bombardment groups are are organized into the 2nd Bombardment Wing. Coupled together with the 1st and 13th Air Reconnaissance squadrons, they form the 1st Air Force. The planes are assembled in a makeshift airfield outside of Spokane, Washington to prepare to fight in North Amwell. They will be sent to an airfield near Anchorage, North Amwell to be the first Washingtonian forces to fight the Dragomerians in North Amwell. The fighter squadrons are largely equipped with P-40E Warhawks and P-39 Airacobras and the bombardment squadrons with B-17Es and B-25Bs.

Air Force 3, Near the Enemy aircraft, In the Air, March 15, 1940
The enemy aircraft were still being pursued by the Zeros. The pilots of the Zeros would not be deterred from their prize. The large number of Zeros in the air made it hard to concentrate on one and not become the target of another; however, it also made it hard for the pilots of the Zeros to keep track of their fellow pilots. Due to their higher speed, the Zeros were coming closer and closer to their Washinton counterparts (ooc: Zero max speed is 534 km/h, F4F-3 max speed is 531 km/h). Many of the Zeros, not attscking the F4F-3's started attacking the bombers from behind, using their guns.
OOC: WW2 Radar could not detect aircraft from that distance (120 miles). The research I found said that they could detect large ships at 15 km. Unless I am mistaken, aircraft are smaller than 'large ships'.

The Zeros continued to chase the enemy aircraft. The Zeros going after the bombers contined firing at them, while observing their evasion tactics. The Zeros going after the F4F-3's continued firing at them, while observing the enemy aircraft's capabilities. Due the the greater maneuverability of the Zero, the Zeros were not thrown off by the bomber aircraft, but instead allowed the Zeros to reduce the distance between them and the enemy aircraft.

OOC: Say we just hurry his up and get one with the strike on my carriers? I feel like this one battle is getting too long drawn out.
En-route to Task Force 1
With the Zeroes getting in close, it gives the tail-gunners a better shot at the Dragomerian pilots, who now require less lead in order to shoot accurately. The Wildcats do what they can to get the Zeroes off their tail with diving maneuvers and attempting to go head on.

The newly formed Washingtonian 1st Marine Division, comprised of the 1st, 5th, and 11th marine Infantry Regiments board transport ships in Seattle, Washington. They are bound for the Ascoobian Hawaiian Islands to train and receive more recruits later. Part of it is to also strengthen the ATCO's hold on the Hawaiian Islands. Outfitted with their tropical gear, they will train in the hot and humid environments of the Central Pacific in order to fight against the Dragomerian Army. More Marine recruit and later Army units will join them as well on the Big island.

OOC: Agreed!
Air Force 3, Near the Enemy aircraft, In the Air, March 15, 1940
The Zeroed would not be deterred! Through countless maneuvers, the Zeros welcomed the challenge, many of which were making it a game over which pilot could down the most enemy aircraft. Those facing the the enemy aircraft head on also freely engaged in the head-on combat. Eventually, the Zeros reached the enemy fleet. (ooc: from here on I am going by what you described as the fleet's organization) The Zeros saw that the enemy placed the battleships on the outside of their fleet. A number of Zeros decided to Kamikaze the enemy battleships, aiming to hit the enemy battleships' towers (ooc: I do not know the technical term) or their hulls. Many of the Zeros chose to finish engaging the enemy aircraft at close range to ensure that if the enemy would use their AA guns, then they would risk hitting their own aircraft.
OOC: RP-wise, I plan on having my nation invade Midway*, on March 18, 1940, and Hawaii on March 21 of that same year (depending on the rate of battle).
*Midway would not be an invasion but a direct naval engagement to draw forces from Hawaii prior to the Hawaiian invasion.
