The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

In order to be able to pass through the Panama Canal, the slender and slender hull deliberately controlled the width, which is extremely thin and slender in front of the Yamato class. Three nine 406mm 50-caliber barrel guns are used for the first time. Advanced hydraulic fastening barrels only need two layers , just before the mk2 needs 7 layers of barrel inserts, the strength is not weak, the range is longer, and the accuracy is higher!

The first ship of Iowa, lying on the sea, raised its thick gun barrel in the distance, followed by a shout, and let out an earth-shattering cry of the first battle on the battlefield!

"boom!"

The nine shots were almost condensed into one sound, and the time difference of milliseconds made the muzzle wind and recoil that seriously interfered with each other into continuous violent vibrations!

Because of the launch at the maximum elevation angle, the recoil impacted downwards and to the right on average, causing the entire battleship to sink violently and move away in parallel for several meters. The sea water on the port side was squeezed out by the orange flash. The 300-meter round depression and the surging sea surface are instantly flattened, reflecting sparkling brilliance, shining the mighty and majestic slender hull, which is incomparable!

The mk8 armor-piercing projectile, with a slender body of 1225kg, was stolen by Zhu Bin early on with excessive technical means and was the first to be equipped with an excellent weapon. It was arranged in a stable arc and rotated gently. Out of a beautiful arc, rushing towards the dark night sky, embedded in the complicated and chaotic air-ground joint combat system, and surpassing the flying fighter planes, the last come first!

"Report! Detected the first battleship firing! Direction 78, distance 33650, number 605, target, [-] Jinan, hit probability. Zero!"

In just a few seconds, the intelligent unit controlling the battlefield finished calculating the data of this earth-shattering salvo, and repeated it with the quick mouth of the defense officer. Nine ballistic arcs were depicted in the holographic image of its console.

The nearest shell was away from the heavy cruiser Jinan.It is probably less than 600 meters. At such a distance, the first salvo can be said to be extremely accurate!

The data was shared synchronously in front of Chen Ce's main console, and the enlarged holographic image expanded even more. What was depicted was an overview of the entire naval battle with a diameter of nearly [-] kilometers. The densely packed dots represented the enemy units that were launching an attack .Launching from time to time and then disappearing rapidly, there are missiles flying out, bombs thrown, planes being shot down, and torpedoes being destroyed.

The number of signals is so dizzying that it is impossible to keep up with it, and only experienced combat staff and weapons experts who have undergone extremely rigorous training can keep up with the changes.Real-time judgment.

U.S. battleships finally fired!

Chen Ce's face.He actually showed a satisfied smile!He clapped his hands and said, "Okay! The Americans finally didn't disappoint me too much! No matter who the commander opposite me is, if you have a chance, you can buy him a drink. Have some guts!"

This is not hypocritical.After years of actual combat tests, the navies of the world, not fools, should know that they are facing the Chinese.The safest way is not to expose the target, otherwise, the end is generally not very good.How about Nimitz?Such a huge Pacific Navy still has only a few small ships left, the third Japanese combined fleet in the world.completely annihilated.They are all bloody role models!

Today, even if it is a dark night, according to the traditional concept of the navy, there is probably no artillery hit between each other at such a distance.Well, to be precise, it is definitely impossible to hit.Up to now, the nighttime bombardment records are all created by the Chinese --- that is the result of the intelligent fire control radar to help aiming and correcting, and the joint probabilistic shooting of multiple warships and multiple turrets.

Then the Americans, while super-saturated and intensively attacking, so boldly launched the bombardment of the capital ship, either they were impatient, or they were uttering their voice: "We are not afraid of you!"

"I love a challenge!"

The corners of Chen Ce's mouth showed a hard line, and he ordered: "Let Hengshan and Yandangshan prepare to go into battle! Reciprocity, this time, we will greet you with naval guns!"

How crazy!

The chief of staff next to him cast a worried look, but didn't say anything.He knew very well that in the Zhu family's army, every general was full of personality, and he had a stubborn temper. He would rather bend than bend, and no one could persuade him.Giving such an order is tantamount to risking one's life!To be honest, it's a bit outrageous.

However, when the order spread throughout the fleet, the ferocious shouts erupted from the ships, large and small, were enough to make him more aware that the young Chinese navy is actually more impulsive, and prefers to use this kind of blood-boiling Intense means, come to fight, come to sway your youth and blood, come to meet the challenge!

The navy, the traditional navy, pins its ideals and glory on majestic steel warships, thick muzzles, deafening roars, spectacular explosions, the collision of iron and fire, and the baptism of monstrous waves!

In the shouting, in the endless destruction, in the boiling flames, realize their ideals, their spirits, their personalities, sublimate and shine together!

The battleship Hengshan, captained by Chen Hongtai, and the Yandangshan, captained by Gao Xianshen, also came from the old navy. They were also colonels when they brought a dilapidated [-]-ton boat, and now they are leading a [-]-ton giant ship. Fineness, feeling, temperament, and confidence are completely two concepts.

At the beginning, facing the Japanese Navy’s Third Fleet rushing into Shanghai, those dilapidated ships that could be put into museum exhibitions, they backed away, flinched, and dared not say a word or fire a shot. They also brazenly went to contact each other and pretended not to see each other.This is enough to engrave a lifetime of shame ah!They, each of them, need to wash the snow with their own hands!

Beihai, Donghai, Yuanyang, all the old navy officers and soldiers have personally washed off the dirt in actual combat, and can start a new life.Today, it's finally their turn to bear the stain of a lifetime, and it will be completely erased!

war!fight!

The two battleships, once the strongest force of the Chinese navy, shocked the world, defeated the backbone of the Japanese army, and once again stood at the forefront of the war!

"Left rudder 105, target, enemy battleship, defensive attack mode, activate! Forward!"

The power system is output at full power, and the auxiliary Tesla diesel steam turbine is added to the operation.The propeller propellers formed at one time on all sides were running crazily, and the tails of the two Taishan-class battleships rumbled with white waves, splitting two deep flight paths, facing the dense and overwhelming attacks, rushing up!

ahead.Around the Jinan heavy cruiser, nine 406mm armor-piercing projectiles fell one after another like meteors chasing the moon. In the rumbling explosion, water jets joined the joint carnival of air-dropped bombs and torpedoes.

The crew, on the contrary, did not have the initial nervousness. If there are too many lice, they will not itch, and if there are too many troubles, they will not worry.This greeting, which was regarded as the main target by the enemy, instead made them feel honored, and was hit by an armor-piercing bullet.Colliding with an aerial bomb, or a torpedo, or a fighter plane, the result is not much different. Instead of worrying about those, it is better to let go and fight!

All weapons of the ship, at maximum speed, with maximum efficiency.Regardless of cost, regardless of the future rhythm.Fierce, ferocious, released outward!

Three triple-mounted 203mm main guns of German descent aim at a target each time, rumbling single-barreled and multi-barreled salvos, and accurately hit the enemy destroyer that is chopping the waves and chopping the waves one by one.Or jump out of the torpedo body!

The 6 double-mounted 105mm high-level dual-purpose guns densely set up, facing the sky, spewing smoke and flames without a trace of pause, together with 12 quadruple-mounted 40mm anti-aircraft guns, form an insurmountable wall of fire in the sky.Wave after wave, the incoming enemy planes were shot down and injured!

The last four 4-barreled close-in anti-aircraft guns never rest for a moment, a continuous chain of fire composed of a series of shells, one after another, sweeping a large area, from time to time, the enemy planes and torpedoes that are close at hand , Swept into fragments, the explosion caused, the flying fragments slammed onto the hull, deck, and bridge, and the splashing fire flickered on and off!

The torpedo tubes on the side, the rocket depth bombs controlled by the transducer, and the rocket pods of the Iron Curtain interception system are all exploding!

This is the most violent outbreak since the capital-class heavy cruiser was born!A ship of this type, weighing no more than 14000 tons, was brought to the foreground abruptly and became the brightest star.But this light, in the face of endless attacks, may completely disappear in the next second.

Until, two Taishan-class battleships rushed forward together!

"Boom!" Another gliding bomb exploded against the midship!The sea water propelled by that huge energy converted the terrifying power enough to tear apart an aircraft carrier into a horizontal squeeze, and slapped hard on the waterline armor side of the Jinan heavy cruiser. The welded skeleton gives squeezy squeezy, deformed form!

The heavy hull not only shifted seven or eight meters, but also an irregular depression was squeezed out on the side. Several cracks suddenly appeared, and tons of seawater poured into it!

Looking at it, if it happens again, she may be seriously injured. The officers and soldiers all over the ship have the consciousness of death in their hearts. Without warning, the sky above their heads suddenly lights up!

From the two Taishan-class battleships, multiple "dandelions" were released at the same time, blooming fiercely!

A dozen or so sub-missiles form a dense and insurmountable network, enveloping the Jinan as a whole, and extending it outwards, until it expands to a ten-kilometer-diameter defense line, covering the second round of the Iowa ship. Shooting, a very dangerous near-miss bomb, abrupt continuous explosion, pushed off the track, and landed in the distance!

In mid-air, five or six enemy planes that were already imminent exploded, and the gliding bomb that rushed hundreds of meters above the head disintegrated!

Immediately afterwards, a deafening salvo erupted from the side. The eighteen main guns of the two battleships pointed at the distant sea area. Over the two sides of the ship, piercing the clouds and cracking the sun, swarming away!

"The Chinese battleship finally officially opened fire!"

Unique flash, grand scene, in the dark night, it can be used as a lighthouse!Mitchell exhausted all kinds of schemes, all kinds of plans, and finally created an opportunity to force out his hidden capital ship abruptly. The counterattack volley not only did not make him nervous, but relieved him for a long time. He took a breath, smiled and called the two warships: "The rest of the battle is up to you!"

The siege of the US 19th Fleet suddenly turned after this salvo!

The night fighter and torpedo attack aircraft, which was about to dive to the limit, pulled up the fuselage suddenly, flattened like water, and rushed towards the two towering figures at high speed!

The second wave of f7f is eyeing up high in the sky.Like a vulture finding its target, it fell suddenly, and piles of gliding bombs were unhooked one after another, and then followed, rushing down quickly!

on the sea.After being hit by more than a dozen ships in a row, there were still more than 20 siege destroyers left. The direction of maneuver changed again, and they flicked their tails one after another, heading forward, and fired a second wave of torpedoes!

The most striking thing is that the two Iowa-class battleships turned their turrets weighing 1730 tons in unison, and their muzzles were billowing white smoke.Point at a new angle, correct your aim, and - fire in sequence!

Almost at the same time as their third round of bombardment, the 406mm artillery shells on the opposite side also arrived!

During mutual high-speed maneuvers, under extremely bad sea conditions, the field of vision is blurred by various disturbances, and it is impossible to aim precisely, let alone sudden.It has almost returned to the original state of artillery confrontation, firing salvos of shells.Accurate heads are limited!

The boiling sea presents an unprecedented chaos!

The four battleships on both sides carried the same turrets and main guns, fired the same shells, and fired wildly at a distance of nearly forty kilometers, regardless of the life of their bodies.Round after round, getting closer and more accurate each time!

The forty or fifty destroyers and several cruisers on both sides are like ingredients in sandwich biscuits.Although it is rich and substantial, it is soft and vulnerable. It is sandwiched by a powerful battleship, and there are heavy shells whizzing back and forth above its head. Any one of them can blow them in half. The shadow of death , hovering just a short distance away.

But these battleships, they didn't care about it at all, and released all kinds of killing moves, all kinds of blows, fierce and spicy towards opponents of similar physique!

explode!roar!echo!Gunpowder!water waves!flash!flame!

It is like a grand symphony between the sea and the sky, performed in an infinitely wide theater, and the loud noises are like the notes that shake the soul, or the big drum that is the finishing touch in military music, bang bang bang, shocking and shocking!

boom!boom!boom!

Monotonous, rhythmless, thick warheads without any sense of aesthetics, steel lumps each capable of crushing a car, powerful mutual damage weapons made by humans, across the vast sea, constantly advancing, constantly explode!

Thirty-five kilometers, thirty kilometers, twenty-five kilometers!

The four battleships squeezed each other's space fiercely!The destroyers inside, in the frantic confrontation, exploded and caught fire one after another. Most of them were American ships with extremely poor defenses, and the seven or eight Chinese ships set up on this side were also covered in injuries. Gun Gun, if the damage control technology is not high enough, explosive fire extinguishing bombs are available at any time, I am afraid that they will all become happy nests of submarine torpedoes!

Battle into the precision strike distance of capital ships!All the light ships, which could move, hurriedly moved to the sides to avoid them, and if they stayed any longer, they would all be cannon fodder!

The heavily scarred heavy cruiser Jinan once again used its main guns to blow up a US heavy cruiser that rushed up to pick up cheap pieces of steel fragments flying around, dragging billowing smoke, and accelerated away.Behind them, large groups of explosions began to be staged spectacularly!

Major General Mitchell, who had spent a lot of money, sent almost all the night fighters he could use, forming a second wave of attacks, a large group of black and white, using gliding bombs to open the way, and constantly consuming two ships. The battleship's anti-aircraft missiles and artillery fire, a piece of splendid fireworks bloomed, representing the destruction of bombs and planes, but he refused to give the order to withdraw!

Everything is just for the battleship, to fight for the time and opportunity to approach!

near!The huge hull and the silhouette of a mountain may seem far away on land when zoomed in. It may take half a day to walk, but the shells only need to fly a distance of ten seconds!

Since the two Iowa-class battleships were built and put into use, they officially went crazy for the first time, and they fired volleys for the ten or twenty times, and finally achieved results!

A shell, along a stable arc trajectory, extended low and flat, and when it was about to approach the Hengshan, it fell suddenly, like a fallen leaf ball kicked by a famous football player. The strange change happened when it fell into the water when it was approaching the battleship. It flicked lightly on the sea surface, with the pointed end pointing up, and hit hard on the main armor belt about one meter above the waterline of the battleship!

boom!

The 1225 kg armor-piercing projectile, with the best angle and powerful kinetic energy, ruthlessly bombards the 350mm thick super-strength alloy armor layer!

The shell, which was comparable to the strength of titanium alloy, collapsed, forming an inner crater with a diameter of three meters. In the middle, a small hole the size of a basketball was forcefully squeezed out by the bullet, but in the end, the shell was firmly stuck. The neck, followed by an explosion, 18.55 kilograms of high explosives, bloomed gorgeously from the surface!

The terrifying chemical energy and the reverse impact forced the battleship to tremble violently. Thousands of tons of seawater were suddenly gasified, forming a cloud of smoke with a width of more than ten meters and a length of nearly a hundred meters that rushed out!

The powerful hull, along the small breach, a terrifying energy, the instant high temperature, sprayed out the tip of the small half of the warhead weighing a hundred kilograms, and the shattered fragments diffracted in a fan shape, for an instant, The 50mm basalt liner of the inner compartment was broken, and the two layers went straight up, down, left, and right, causing an instant air explosion, which not only doubled the outward expansion of the depression, but also stirred up the facilities inside. mess!

"Hit!"

Major General Mitchell, let out a heartfelt cheer! (To be continued..)
