Chapter 1392 Taking advantage of his illness to kill him (first update, please subscribe)
What is the most difficult thing about being a general in war?
It's a choice!

Whoever sees through the fog of war wins.

But how many people who are generals most of the time can see through the fog of war?

The so-called seeing through is actually a choice.

In war, either is a choice.There are only two outcomes, either failure or victory.

There is no other choice, but sometimes, a wrong choice on the battlefield can destroy a country!
This is why the choice is so difficult.

When Wu Anping fell into deep thought, Qiu Zhenzhi looked at the thoughtful chief and said.

"Sir, if the U.S. warship is only two to three hundred nautical miles away from us, then even if we head south at full speed now, I am afraid it is possible to catch up with us. After all, our speed is only 13 knots at most. If it is only fifty or sixty nautical miles away, then it is impossible There is no need to retreat."

Wu Anping nodded approvingly at Staff Officer Qiu's words, as he said, it seemed that there was no good choice for the fleet at all.

Glancing at Staff Officer Qiu, he said.

"Indeed, there's no need to retreat whether it's far or near. If you run, you can't run away from others. If that's the case—then fight!"

This is the inevitable reason for the slow speed of warships. Even if they want to escape, sometimes they may not be able to escape.If the speed is too slow, the opponent will definitely be able to catch up.

"But sir, the vast sea, even if they want to chase us, I'm afraid it will be very difficult..."

Before the chief of staff finished speaking, Wu Anping said in a deep voice.

"Okay, I have made up my mind. To launch a second wave of attacks, to fight the enemy immediately, and not to be afraid of a strong enemy, is the creed of our imperial navy! How can our imperial navy avoid fighting and lose tactics? If we can Sink these dozen or so warships, even if our entire army is wiped out, it doesn't matter! I order... to attack!"

"Yes!"

The order to attack has been issued again!

"take off!"

The green signal light of the flight command post indicating take-off continued to draw circles.The fighter planes on the takeoff line in front of the flight deck began to take off.

The radial engine rumbled, and the plane began to taxi slowly.Different from the first attack, the sea was already windy at this time, the warship swayed violently, and the flight deck also swayed continuously.Every time it shook, the people seeing off watched the plane nervously.However, before the next swing came, the plane took off abruptly.The same goes for the next plane.

Every time the takeoff is successful, there will be cheers like a storm on the deck.People waved their hats and arms, and some waved small flags to see the pilots off.

Unlike the first wave of attacks, which detoured to the northern part of the Virginia Peninsula and sailed into the South Hampton anchorage, the second wave of attacks had lost their suddenness, and the fleet rushed over directly from the sea, saving a full half an hour from the first wave of attacks.

At 23:102 noon, a fleet of [-] aircraft led by Lu Deren arrived at the South Hampton anchorage again. Follow the dive bomber team to find the target.If you fly high, it is difficult to find the target, and if you fly low, you cannot dive.

"Ming people are here again!"

Compared to the first time when they didn't even know who the enemy was, now the U.S. military has finally figured out the identity of the enemy—Ming people.They saw the Suzaku emblem from the plane.

That is the emblem of the Ming Empire.

Although they don't know what weapons the Ming people used, it doesn't prevent them from fighting back with all their might.

When the plane entered the anchorage, the artillery fire from below intensified, and the anti-airship barrages dragging the dragons were clearly visible in the air.And even more deadly is the machine gun!

Most American warships are equipped with Maxim machine guns. Although these machine guns were not designed for air defense, they are used by sailors for air defense because they can shoot high and fast. When the aircraft approached again, they picked up their rifles and shot into the air.

A hail of bullets!

The completely different situation from the first attack did not affect the pilots' attack. Although the billowing black smoke in the port blocked their sight, the pilots still seized every opportunity to attack the enemy ship.

Looking at the target on the sea, Li Tianle sneered and raised the corners of his lips.

"It's him!"

Although the target was shrouded in billowing black smoke, the faintly visible four turrets showed his identity—it was a Dreadnought-class battleship.

Without the slightest hesitation, he dived straight in the direction of the target.

Dive!

Dive at an angle of [-] degrees, so that when the plane dived to a certain height, Li Tianle could already clearly see the heavily damaged enemy ship, and then immediately corrected the aim and bombed the enemy ship.

A bomb weighing 300 kilograms accurately hit its deck, followed by a violent explosion a moment later, and its bow was blown into the sky.

The other [-] bomb-carrying fighter planes generally followed this method, first looking for the target in the billowing black smoke, and after finding out that the target was a big guy, they would dive towards it.

It is very conspicuous, and even the attack fleet will not directly attack those small enemy ships.In fact, their purpose is very simple - to damage the enemy's main battleship as hard as possible.

As for the non-main battleships, including those former dreadnoughts, they have all been eliminated, so naturally there is no need to attack it anymore.

During the implementation of the second attack wave, the torpedo plane formation in the air spotted two American warships struggling to leave at full speed. They would immediately pounce on them like sharks smelling blood. Following the curved trajectory of the anti-airship gun, it rushed directly towards the enemy ship, and the fighter plane that descended to zero altitude skimmed the sea like a torpedo boat and rushed towards the "Ohio" that was leaving the anchorage at full speed. At a position of 300 meters, the fighter dropped the torpedo, and then quickly pulled up and climbed. The torpedo flew towards the target like a sharp arrow...

One after another, the moment the third fighter dropped the torpedo, a huge jet of water suddenly exploded from the side of the distant battleship.

"hit!"

Amidst the cheers of the pilot, another torpedo hit the target, and two torpedoes hit the target in succession, which slowed down the speed of the "Ohio". Kill him!
Now that the enemy ship was bleeding and weakening like a beast, it was time to kill it.

The four torpedo planes launched an attack again, and their tactics were the same, lowering altitude, flying across the sea, and dropping bombs...

Even the American machine guns and anti-airship guns were pouring bullets, but they could not stop their attacks.

They are like a pack of wolves rushing towards a beast, biting their prey, even if someone is injured.

Finally, after the sixth torpedo hit the "Ohio", the warship could no longer struggle, and quickly sank into the icy sea.

Although the second attack wave also achieved great results, the remaining warships were either completely destroyed, or suffered serious damage, and were even sunk directly. completely sunk...
