The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

The "Kaohsiung" has large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery that can be called fierce in this era, but it is only a battleship. Even with the destroyers covering the surrounding area, it is not enough to stop the incoming bombers. Besides, this is a ship that should not have appeared In this era of high fighter

Gong Lang took advantage of the time when he went back to load the ammunition, and drove out the "Dark Arrow 2" that only he could touch except for Zhu Bin and Serena, and mounted a 500-pound large aerial bomb for the Japanese army who tried to escape the killing. Flagship Takes a Heavy Hit

This monster with a speed of up to 900 kilometers is almost unimaginable in this era. The speed of bullets whizzing back and forth can't be captured even by Ri himself with the best eyes. To save people, who would have expected that with the desperate interception of dozens of fighter planes in front, such a vicious man could be killed?

"Dark Arrow 2"'s unique layout of large delta wings and front fixed canards gave his slender figure extremely flexibility and straightness. He suddenly got out of the hole until the bomb fell, and even rubbed against the "Kaohsiung" "When the top of the mast flashed by, the Japanese army on the ship was awakened by the weird roar, and then saw in horror that four black spots blasted towards the battleship with a near-sounding hell-like sound.

"Boom boom"

Four aerial bombs fell into the sea water on both sides of the battleship, less than 30 meters away from the hull. After penetrating about ten meters underwater, the fierce explosion sounded, and the huge water column emptied the "Kaohsiung" from both sides. Wrapped up, the majestic force generated by nearly [-] kilograms of high explosives pushed a huge amount of seawater backlogged on both sides of the hull like a giant hammer, and the steel riveted "Kaohsiung" trembled all over. The battleship was squeezed and pushed upwards - book_) The solid keel and steel plates "creaked" and shrank in, tearing out huge cracks more than one meter wide

The power of a near miss is no worse than a direct hit. The seawater bombarded by a large amount of explosives faithfully transmits the power to the hull. This distance is not even a battlecruiser can bear, not to mention Kaohsiung with much thinner armor. No., the keel of the entire ship was crushed and broken within a few seconds, the steel plate rivets exploded and flew randomly, and hundreds of tons of sea water "gulped" and poured wildly. In the blink of an eye, the slender ship half down

At this time, the congenital flaws in the design appeared to harm the already oversized and heavy bridge, and it was not easy to maintain balance. It took only a minute or two to go to the middle of the country. I watched the battleship getting slower and more crooked. No matter how the helmsman adjusted or balanced it was useless. When I jumped on the boat, the battleship was already tilted to the right by more than 2 degrees

At the moment of the explosion, dozens of people were swept away by the lifeboats on both sides and the soldiers repairing and fighting the fire. Now, a collective escape drama began to be staged. Jumping in, scrambling to be the first to use the energy of sucking milk, trying to dig out, so as not to be involved in the vortex caused by the sinking of the battleship

In fact, the water depth of the Yellow Sea is mostly shallow. The sinking warships in this place can be easily salvaged. If they are not particularly unlucky, they can also float up after sinking. But the question is, who has such a clear head at this time?

At high altitude, nearly [-] two-seat bombers that broke through the blocking fleet increased their speed, circled around and passed over the heads of warships from various countries watching the excitement, and rushed towards the already panicked Third Fleet outside Lingshan Bay in the north.

The only use of the Third Fleet, which is composed of veterans who have been at least 20 years old, is to bully China, which does not have a strong navy. Most of the warships dare not even sail across the Pacific Ocean, nor can they design It doesn't have that function, and it can't handle the strong winds, waves and dangerous sea conditions.

Now the two armored cruisers with the most firepower and fiercest firepower have been sunk. Seeing the bombers overhead aggressively taking advantage of their weak anti-aircraft firepower to beat the dogs in the water, Lieutenant General Imamura Jiro knew that he was going to be in bad luck, so he hurriedly ordered the front to work hard. The breakthrough fighters pulled back and tried their best to prevent the opponent's dive-bombing. The Third Fleet didn't have much anti-air firepower on these old things that were too laborious to dismantle and sell scrap iron.

The already disorganized assault fleet retreated in a hurry, and flanked the southern fleet, desperately trying to block the bombing, while the dozen or so fast destroyers below who were busy saving lives had to put aside the life and death of their comrades for the time being. Concentrate the anti-aircraft artillery fire to the maximum extent, and strictly prevent the defense

The bombers with an average speed of 420 kilometers did not have too much entanglement, and the number of less than thirty bombers was too small for the warships below this number. The aerial bombs dropped like flowers are almost inaccurate. After a circle, except for the two unlucky gunboats and the old second-tier destroyer that can be put into the museum exhibition, which were sunk by mere 500-pound bombs, the others are at best a minor injury

The fleets of the great powers watching the excitement have already been dumbfounded. Zhu Bin's ferocity in pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is simply impressive! The old guys in the navy are rare in their lives, and they don't match the image of the backward and ignorant Chinese navy in their minds.

Admiral Kelly sighed deeply, and said to the other people next to him: "We can't let them fight any longer. It's hard to deal with it to this extent. We have to intervene."

"I agree that the balance of power in the Far East must be maintained. Japan cannot be allowed to retaliate crazily. A full-scale war is not in our interests. Although...damn, we still underestimate our opponents." As the representative, Mr. George who planned all this I was so upset that I kept calling "shit"

Ri himself launched the attack with their consent and even instigation, but he did not expect the result to be like this. Ri's greed, recklessness, and dead-headedness have already made people very troubled. The depth is far beyond expectations, and it seems to be out of control. If the Third Fleet is cleaned up, there will be no other possibility between China and Japan except for a full-scale war.

Of course, they don’t feel bad if these two countries are broken. The war between the two countries will bring countless business opportunities, which will greatly alleviate the economic crisis in the western world, increase employment rates, and export arms and equipment.

But the problem is that the British can’t get this benefit in today’s world. In terms of export capacity, the Americans and Germans are the highest. The Americans’ war resources such as oil, grain, and steel, and the Germans’ machine tools, heavy machinery, and arms production lines. Weapons can just support the needs of the two countries. Britain and France can only watch the fun, and there is also the danger of the colony being smashed. Such thankless things must not be done.

Admiral Kelly immediately sent clear telegrams to the warships of France, Italy, and the United States. The French and Italians were eager to show their presence and agreed without hesitation. On the American side, Colonel Grant sighed faintly, shook his head and said: : "It's a pity that if the war can continue and expand, maybe we will see what wonderful things happen"

Commander Yan Luer was not a militant, so he squinted at him, and said with something in his words: "Colonel, do you want to see that Zhu Bin's old background? I'm afraid it will be difficult, and I don't recommend that. I know that in a Great Patriotic War, it is most likely to cultivate an immortal leader who will be famous in history. If such a person climbs to the top of Chinese politics, he will be in great trouble in the future.”

Colonel Grant frowned, and had to admit that Mr. Commander's eyes were sharp: "Okay, actually, I don't want to see the Chinese ask us for help so soon. Well, it's good to promise the British."

It took less than 5 minutes for the fleets of the four countries to reach an agreement, and then several clear-coded telegrams and broadcasts were sent to Zhu Bin and the Japanese army, and were directly transmitted to the main coastal embassies and consulates. zheng fu warns and dissuades

Although Japan has withdrawn from the League of Nations and is nominally out of control, it doesn't mean they can mess around. On the Chinese side, Lao Jiang almost fainted after hearing the British battle report, what the hell?After sinking six heavy cruisers, no matter how they were sunk, the question is, can Ri himself listen to persuasion?

He gritted his teeth at Zhu Bin, and finally gained the upper hand in the plan to suppress the bandits, and managed to suppress the chaos in Fujian. With such a big trouble, if Japan really wants to launch a national war, it is impossible for him to ignore it. This will fall short

After Zhu Bin received the telegram, he smacked his lips and tossed it to everyone, asking: "Big guys discuss it, do you want to continue? Let me explain that we don't have the ability to completely wipe out the Japanese fleet for the time being, and these are not enough to make the war go away." The Japanese army is battered, but their navy is still strong."

Cao Han grinned, thinking that you are still not satisfied. I am afraid that Japan has not suffered such a big loss since the Meiji era. In just two days from the start of the war to now, hundreds of fighters have been destroyed. Four heavy cruisers, two old-fashioned armored cruisers, two high-level destroyers, two second-class destroyers, two gunboats... these numbers are quite auspicious, might it not make people cry?

But to be honest, the sum total of all these sinkings is less than [-] tons. Compared with the number of warships of the Japanese army with more than one million tons, it is indeed not a serious injury, but the loss is unprecedented. It's not easy coming. In a country that is so poor and instigated, the fleet that has been built up for decades is so crippled, who can't be mad?

"Just accept it when you see it," Yu Baoguo said with a coquettish smile, "I have to give face to the big powers, they will take the initiative to mediate, otherwise this matter will not end well, and Japan's disregarded temperament may cause trouble what a hassle"

Hu Yibo nodded and said: "I agree that our top priority is to develop our strength, and an all-out confrontation with the Japanese army is not the best policy."

Looking at the similar attitude, Zhu Bin slapped his hands: "That's it, give the British people face" (to be continued)
