The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Chapter 699 Siege of the Second Fleet

() This trick really caught people off guard!

Wang Wenda yelled angrily: "The little devils of Gou Ri have learned badly! They always use planes to mount battleships. Is this still called a naval battle? What's wrong with this!"

Fu Zhenhua smiled wryly and shook his head, there was no way, who let them share such a perverted nation?No matter what you do beyond the bottom line, it can be regarded as normal!

Almost all night fighters that set off in the dark choose the mode of advancing from high altitude and ultra-low altitude.As for their crap that doesn’t have a cabin heating device, and is even exposed at the back, it can freeze for a while after flying at an altitude above 6000 meters. Kilometers to be found strong! ..

These planes carrying empty torpedoes on their belly are specially designed to be able to fly stably at a height of 30 meters to 50 meters close to the sea surface, in order to find an accurate angle to drop the bomb.It is true that in the dark night, there is a high chance of diving headlong into the sea, but at the same time, as long as one is successfully loaded onto the enemy's battleship, it will be a huge success!

Now, those who dived at high altitude have all become the targets of the joint attack of the air defense system, and the remaining low-altitude impacts on those who survived finally dropped the torpedo within 3000 meters, and slammed forward with machine guns and cannons!

No matter how good the fire control system is, once multiple fighter planes invade a distance of more than 2000 meters, the time left for the battleship is less than 20 seconds!

..

The high-level and flat-purpose guns sitting on both sides can only be fired a few times before reaching the limit of the pitch angle, and in such a chaotic environment, there are still shells falling and exploding around, and there are too many factors that hinder the aiming. Difficult to hit with precise shots.

The close-in defense system has the best shooting angle and precise strike speed, but it is for the interception of multiple targets.It takes at least a few seconds for each one, and if a little omission occurs, the opportunity will succeed!

"Boom!" Another Japanese plane was blasted into a fireball by more than a dozen 30mm artillery shells head-on. It just disintegrated and disintegrated when another fighter plane hiding behind it directly crashed into the fireball and came out from the other end.The near-defense system couldn't react in time, and watched it burst into flames, the wings on both sides were broken, the glass cockpit was broken, and the pilot inside was soaked in blood, but his eyes were wide open and he roared madly, crookedly, and fell headfirst!

Originally, its target was the towering bridge, but it was knocked out of control by the debris of its companion.The nose of the aircraft sank suddenly, falling in an arc, and finally hit the turret roof of the side 127mm secondary gun. During the bang and explosion, the rear half of the fuselage fell out and hit the side inclined tower of the bridge flatly!

"Boom! Boom!" The remaining large amount of fuel and airborne ammunition exploded and ignited during the impact, swallowing the twin turrets, smashing the fuselage at the root of the solid bridge, and then the fire spread.It burned red in the blink of an eye, and was blown by the sea breeze again.It's about to wreak havoc everywhere!

The low multi-tube launchers on the deck and on the bridge twisted suddenly, "bang bang bang" sprayed out a dozen basketball-sized explosive fire extinguishing devices in a row, fell into the fire and exploded dullly, splashing white water horizontally. The gel-like fire extinguishing agent covers the oil and the fire head in a blink of an eye, isolates the air, and extinguishes the fire quickly.There is no one out of control.

The blazing flames licked the middle and upper part of the bridge at one point, Wang Wenda saw it clearly through the bulletproof glass, and gasped at the time, but the matter is not over yet!

There were seven or eight torpedoes dropped in a row, three of which were aimed at the battleship "Songshan".The maneuverability of heavy battleships is incomparable to that of destroyers and cruisers. The induced bombs released in the end just came out of deep water and successfully caused two detonators to detonate. The third one is really powerless. explode!

"Boom!"

A loud noise ten times louder than the armor-piercing projectile resounded suddenly, and the explosion close to the armor surface formed a direct bombardment effect. The strong high-strength alloy was sunken inward, but it was not directly cracked!Fortunately, the charge of the Type [-] air-launched torpedo was not enough, and the distance was too close to cause a more terrifying water pressure impact. Wade over at a slant, shake while moving on!

This explosion was really conspicuous, both the enemy and us could see it clearly, and the Japanese side all gave out a shocking applause!This is the first time since the start of the war that they have hit and severely damaged the enemy's capital ship, which is still the flagship. From the looks of it, the fire is rising and the hull is tilted. It must be seriously injured. It's wonderful!

On the Chinese side, Wang Wenda's exasperated roar was heard on the wireless channel!The damage reported by various parties was not that serious, but it was too embarrassing to be seriously injured under such a powerful air defense capability!

Not only him, but the "Huashan" which was further back was also successfully hit by two planes. The difference was that one plane waded across the front deck and then hit the side of the ship and rolled over and fell into the sea without causing much damage; The frame also wanted to hit the bridge, but was shattered by the anti-aircraft artillery within the last few tens of meters. The fragments impacted and exploded multiple pieces of composite armor, which did not cause enough damage, but it still caused a fire!

The flames of the two capital ships gave the Japanese fleet hope. If it was really seriously injured, then the losses of "Ki" and "Owari" in front would be made up for.Especially in an extremely disadvantaged situation, it is perfect to have such a result!

It's just that they didn't think about it, in this way, it was tantamount to stabbing a hornet's nest!

Xie Gangzhe has seen this method once before, and said seriously: "We are too close to the Japanese mainland! If more planes collide with us like this, it will be a big deal sooner or later! A quick fix!"

Wang Wenda gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Stop talking to them! Open fire with all your might! Kill the idiot!"

The four battleships resumed the two-on-one method, each locked on an enemy ship and rushed together!

During the battle, four heavy cruisers, six light cruisers, and two amphibious landing ships each opened up their firepower, and after detonating the incoming Japanese "Jiu San Su Su torpedo" with induced torpedoes, they rushed into the enemy at full speed to counterattack with torpedoes. At the same time, the 203mm artillery was concentrated and fired one by one. After counting consecutively, four Japanese ships were hit one after another, and big explosions rose into the sky one after another!

The paralyzed "Owari" was hit by five torpedoes in a row. Its waterline armor capable of resisting 320mm charges did not last long under the series armor-piercing bombardment. The resulting horrible water pressure continuously oscillated, crushing and breaking the hull; the continuous impact formed by the explosion of the third drilled into the bottom lifted the battleship halfway up, and the keel finally couldn't bear the repeated blows, deformed and ruptured, and the outer shell burst into long pieces. Cracks, the teeth-sickening sound of metal twisting, the fourth and fifth exploded respectively, completely blasting them into countless cracks, thousands of tons of seawater poured in, and the battleship sank rapidly!

On the other side, the two "Taishan" ships, which beat the dog in the water, hit the "Owari" with more than ten rounds of main guns one after another. From the bow to the stern, they crossed the obliquely through the roof and pierced through. The holes made and the explosions caused the main guns All paralyzed, half of the bridge was blown up, the mast was broken, the chimney was broken, the deck was full of dead bodies and debris, and the secondary artillery was basically finished. Except for the main generals in the command room who were rescued on the lifeboat, more than 400 people were directly killed !

One of the cannonballs pierced through the hole made in the front, and a boiler exploded, completely paralyzing the power. The giant steel ship lay horizontally on the sea like a dead fish, crookedly sinking while pouring water!

Nagumo Chuichi miraculously woke up, and issued the last order: "Omi takes over the flagship, and all retreat to the mainland!"

After being bombarded by continuous explosions, his head finally calmed down. Don't think about killing the China Fleet or gaining some benefits!Being able to bring back enough battleships is a victory!The rest are extravagant wishes!The force possessed by the other party is by no means something he can still covet after falling into the trap. Judging by his posture, it is going to be completely wiped out!

Just at this time, the second wave of planes rushed across the sky, and all the Chinese warships were in a hurry to carry out air defense operations. The two units broke through due east at full speed.

The half of the warships led by the "Suruga" had run away from the East China Sea Fleet during the last air strike, and they were now on the periphery. If they seized the opportunity at this time, they would not be able to escape!Without waiting for the opponent to recover, he sprinted with all his strength regardless, and quickly approached Kagoshima, leaving the cruiser and destroyer frantically blocking the way, releasing as many torpedoes as possible, regardless of whether it would hurt his own people!

In contrast, the "Omi" was rather sad. Some of their warships were in the pincer area of ​​the two Chinese fleets. Wang Wenda saw that the boy in front was running too fast, so he stopped chasing and turned right to cut across the "Omi". ", and the two ships of "Taishan" formed a confrontation posture, crossed and cracked the giant ship in the middle, and smashed it wildly!

The maneuverability of the "Omi" was mediocre, rushing left and right in the rainy explosions, the escort ships on both sides desperately blocked the eye, fired torpedoes, and coupled with the obstruction of the Air Force fighter planes, finally after hitting five shells in a row, He rushed out of the encirclement with billowing smoke, but the price was four cruisers, destroyers, and hundreds of fighter planes!

After this melee, more than ten ships of the Second Fleet were killed, two main battleships sank, and nearly two hundred fighter planes were destroyed. The losses were too heavy to be calculated!

But the suicide attack was too scary. The more skilled Japanese lunatics succeeded in the second wave of more than a dozen collisions. The "Taishan" was injured, the turrets of two heavy cruisers were blown up and caused a fire, and the "Hengshan" was hit. On the bridge, several radars were broken, and a stern close-in anti-aircraft gun was completely finished.

The most troublesome thing is that Ri himself discovered the secret of the vertical hair system on the rear deck of the battleship, and most of them stared at it and crashed there, causing fire on the decks of the two battleships, although it was not enough to blast away the thick multi-layered armor shells. , but it is a bit difficult for a while to launch a missile attack!

Wang Wenda was planning to hunt him down to the end, when Zhu Bin's order suddenly came: "Remember the little devils! Once they are all wiped out, they will not come next time!" (To be continued.)
