The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

() It is not surprising that heavy armor-piercing projectiles of naval guns behave like this. If it is an ordinary ship, it will explode at the bottom after direct high-speed and high-kinetic energy collision penetration, or it will not explode, but in the relative control center, the defense officer His fingers trembled on the enlarged impact point, and he was covered in a cold sweat by the data that almost exceeded the estimate!The data that has not been tested in actual combat is unreliable after all, and the ballistic changes and terminal kinetic energy data caused by various factors such as distance, angle, and wind speed during the battle are too complicated, and it cannot be calibrated once or twice.

Zhu Bin couldn't help frowning. It seems that in the case of insufficient energy, there is still a big flaw in relying on the sudden output of a simple force shield!This is one warhead to kill, what if it is ten rounds?Although this kind of probability is not high in sea battles, he dare not take it lightly. After all, there are too few resources in his hands to take that kind of risk!Even if a shell hits, it will cause tragic consequences!

Fortunately, the hit rate of naval guns these days is really sad!The secondary guns of the two battleships and the main guns of the heavy cruiser are not afraid for the time being. Six eighteen cannons of 400mm or more can be fired together for three rounds. Stretched! ..

He waved his hand indifferently to the look in the eyes of the chief of defense: "Continue to execute!"

The kinetic energy killing power of the 410mm armor-piercing projectile is astonishing, even if it is facing a mountain, it can blast a water bay, and the mountain fortifications are all scum.But the explosive power was lackluster. Ten kilograms of explosives were inferior to the army's 155 cannons. From a distance, the flash was short, and at the same time the blue arc light from the shattered force field shield was mixed in it.Show a magnificent beauty!

The figure of "Yingzhou" became more and more clear!

Nagumo Chuichi saw it clearly from a distance of more than ten kilometers. The simple and smooth lines, except for a bridge and mast, can hardly see the appearance of turrets, steel frames, chimneys, carrier-based aircraft, catapults, lifeboats and other facilities. It is doubtful whether this is a battleship, and how its shells were fired.

But deal with the Chinese more.He wouldn't doubt anything either, all kinds of strange things happened too much, which was beyond the scope of his intelligence.

But the figure of the ship let him breathe a sigh of relief, his tense facial muscles relaxed, and he hissed: "Hey! It seems to be a Chinese heavy cruiser! Or a special battleship, not a battleship. The assault ability is very powerful, but the strike ability is still average!"

If it were him, he would have such a terrifying ability to attack.Dare a battleship to sneak into the formation to face the siege of two battleships, such a powerful guy, even the terrible artillery that can penetrate the armor of the "Yamato", there is no reason not to continue to attack and sweep everything away!The opponent's technological equipment level has improved, but the combat ability is still insufficient!

Good luck to the Empire!

Zhongyi Nanyun raised his brows and issued an order in a deep voice: "Tell all ships to pay attention and use armor-piercing bullets as much as possible. Don't damage this battleship too much! There should be technology on it that is very much needed by the empire. And the Chinese Navy The secret weapon! Got it, it will greatly enhance our strength, and we will have a very deep understanding of them!"

It's sad to say that it has been at war with the Chinese for several years, and the Japanese army and navy have so far been able to obtain very few samples of Chinese weapons.For the Army, light weapons get some.None of the advanced tanks were captured.The Air Force's advanced fighter jets did get some wreckage, but it was found that the difference in materials was too great to imitate!

Japan's fighter development idea is to save expensive high-strength aluminum alloys and pursue mobility, so the materials used are simple.The output of the engine is small, and the whole machine is made very light, with almost no armor.

China's is almost the opposite. They have almost no bottom line to increase engine power. On the one hand, the aerodynamic layout is excellent. The conditions of the full metal frame and skin, the armor of key parts, and the large amount of ammunition, etc., lead to the performance of the aircraft exceeding that of the RI aircraft. At the same time, the weight actually doubled!It is not a way of thinking at all, it is difficult to imitate, and it is also difficult to find weak points to attack!

Worst of all is the Navy!The combined losses over the years are enough to renew the joint fleet, but the opponent's main weapons and ships have not even recovered a single wreck, let alone research and countermeasures.

Is this a coincidence today?An adventurer sneaked into the encirclement to provoke, a prelude to death!Still so advanced, I am really sorry for my luck to let him run away!

Chuichi Nagumo seems to have a plan in mind, if the other two cruisers, destroyers, and submarines flock to him, they can surround that guy to death!And he has already sent power to another trial fleet, and it will be able to kill him in a few hours. At that time, three battleships will not be able to kill him!

"Yamato" is not the first sea trial, and the efficiency of the overall operation is satisfactory. Theoretically, the launch speed of 1.5 rounds per minute can be guaranteed. Combat, the strength is greatly increased!

The surrounded "Yingzhou" seemed to have lost its ability to resist, and continued to travel in an arc at a speed of 10 knots in the stormy sea. The more and more precise intensive bombardment lasted for [-] minutes, and the accuracy was greatly improved , almost every minute, there are at least two shells of various calibers approaching with a hit probability of more than [-]!

Such density is unprecedented!The data in the home exercise test was refreshed within 5 minutes, and the defense officer also lost the relaxed face, a stream of sweat slowly left on his forehead, stretched his fingers across his hands, and flicked the screen like a convulsion, more and more The more data is calibrated, the accuracy increases. After more than [-], the improvement of the overall data accumulated and updated by the smart unit is visible to the naked eye!

Sailing staggered, the distance between each other gradually widened, from the original hedge to parallel, and then to miss, the front deck guns completely lost their angles, and the time was quickly consumed amidst the continuous rumble of guns!

Seeing that the "Suruga" behind has formed an advantageous T-shaped formation to shoot, the "Yamato" turned right to grab the rear position, and the heavy cruiser on the right turned left, and the three formed an arc. Shaped encirclement, the output of shells reached the maximum frequency, Zhu Bin saw that another 460mm shell was blocked, and decisively ordered to speed up and leave.Steer right to catch Yamato's ass!

This strategy is undoubtedly the most correct!Among all the attacking ships, only the biggest one has slow speed and poor maneuverability!With more than 2 tons of thick armor, the freeboard on the waterline is not high enough, and the balance of the hull needs to be tested. Ri himself is afraid of suffering in the Pacific Ocean.I don't dare to play large-scale movements, but this gives the "Yingzhou" a big advantage!

The long steel dragon-like hull pushed aside the waves and suddenly twisted, tilting more than fifteen degrees. No one on board felt much discomfort. The turning radius was nearly half smaller than that of the Japanese ship, and the sudden acceleration output The three propellers urged the battleship to follow the galloping horses, pulled the distance to [-] kilometers away, and then dodged to the left wing of the enemy formation!

The three Japanese ships had to turn around and change to a reverse pursuit posture. Chuichi Nagumo knew very well that the destroyers and submarines in the rear would not be able to stop this terrible guy!I'm afraid it will be killed before it gets close.It's better to watch the fun from a distance.

The power output of "Yamato" is not even as good as that of "Yingzhou", but the overall displacement is more than three times!I have to admire Ri's own design ability, but in battle, the maximum speed difference of seven or eight knots and the maneuverability of more than double are very terrible!

The "Yizhou" crossed the course with incommensurable dexterity, and when it reached the left rear of the "Yamato", the number of shells fired dropped sharply.Without losing the opportunity, Zhu Bin ordered the naval guns to fire again!

Twin turrets span the foredeck.Aim at the stern of the clumsy super giant ship and blast two cannons. The conventional capped armor-piercing projectile has the same terrible penetration at a distance of less than ten kilometers!A catapult hit the supporting base and pierced through it in one go. Although the explosive force didn't blow up the whole body, it tore a bathtub-sized crack, and the upper steel frame was broken and twisted.Completely abolished!

The other shot smashed the twin 37mm anti-aircraft guns arranged in the stern, and even the shells that penetrated remained mostly intact, and then crossed the stern and penetrated into the upper deck from the right side. A piece of wood and a thin steel plate were blown away, but at least it didn't make a transparent hole!

This is for the "Yamato" with rough skin and thick flesh.It's not worth mentioning!It wouldn't even cause much shock, Nan Yunzhong didn't even bat an eye, just let it go!

He now dares to assert that this strange battleship is very nimble and agile, and its night combat ability is also super high, but its attack ability is very poor. It is useless if it only has precision, and the caliber of the main gun is too small.It seems that those terrifying and weird weapons are powerless against the abnormal armor and structure of "Yamato"?

It is really an invigorating judgment!

Nagumo Chuichi ordered the battleship to continue to turn right to seize the dominant position without hesitation, while the "Suruga" turned around from a distance, and cooperated with the left-wing heavy cruiser to intercept, while the right-wing heavy cruiser accelerated to the left full rudder, cutting To the rear of the enemy ship, strive to form an unbreakable encirclement!

The angle between each other is too large, and the "Yamato" can't fire at full strength. The main guns and auxiliary guns on the rear deck continue to fire without relaxing at all. After the training simulation, the integration was quick in an actual battle, and the cooperation became more and more proficient and smooth. This result also makes His Excellency the Commander very satisfied!

Under the more and more precise bombardment, the figure of "Yingzhou" became more and more clear, and almost every explosion and flash could be vaguely seen!

It feels so good to not have to smear blind typing!Nanyun Zhongyi almost screamed excitedly, finally, isn't he so passive in the battle with the Chinese people?

Inside the "Yingzhou", Zhu Bin glanced at the screen data on the captain's console, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How long can the total amount of energy last?"

The electromechanical chief said affirmatively: "If it is a battle of this intensity, our reactor output is sufficient to supplement. As long as there are no problems with other systems, we can continue to fight for three days and three nights!"

There was a burst of relaxed laughter from the command center.This is completely asymmetrical fighting ability, okay? Japan's ships can last up to [-] nautical miles, with limited fuel and ammunition, and the battle is almost a mobilization of the entire ship, which means less losses.

On the other hand, on the "Yingzhou", the energy is enough to support the warship to keep turning around the world. The manufacture of the key power structure does not need to worry about losing the chain in the middle, that is, the food and drink of the personnel cannot be guaranteed. If the supply ship follows, they can do whatever they want!

There are two main guns installed, but there are 1000 rounds of shells!Different from the indiscriminate firing of old-fashioned warships, which rely on a few percent probability to get hits, almost all require precise shooting, and the overall strike results.I don't know how much higher than before!

There is also an electromagnetic shield that focuses on taking care of the flying shells. This battle is comfortable no matter what!

Zhu Bin wanted to do the same. He relaxed on the chair and yelled, "That's good! Keep the current speed! Activate the artillery shell interception tactical module and see how our anti-aircraft missiles can perform!"

"understand!"

"Tactical adjustment completed! Anti-aircraft missile module start-up completed! Joint air defense system self-inspection completed! Target acquisition started...Find a target that can be intercepted, launch she!"

There was a loud shouting order.Just when the rear main turret of the "Yamato" [-] kilometers away was firing again, the radar system obtained the scanning data immediately, and greatly advanced the calculation time of the ballistic trajectory and impact point, almost within five seconds. Out of the simulated trajectory, lock on an armor-piercing projectile with a probability of more than [-]% hitting or causing a near-miss, and the two "Dart" air defense missiles are launched instantly under the linkage!

This time, it was ejected from the rising module in the vertical cabin on the front deck. After the slender projectile rushed out dragging the billowing fireworks, its wings stretched out, and the projectile accelerated suddenly when it was in the air.Breaking through the speed of sound in a few seconds, and after drawing a large arc forward, it suddenly slammed into the oncoming 460mm shell from the side!

The accuracy of the "Dart 2" missile under joint guidance is too high!The cannonball still flying at supersonic speed was hit in the middle, and the dense tubular warhead in the missile structure was suddenly forced out and nailed to the cannonball under the fierce impact. A total of 35 kilograms of explosives boomed and exploded, and the combined kinetic energy brought them The original ballistic trajectory was completely destroyed, and the one-and-a-half-ton big guy shook in the air, rolled sideways and carried it to the sea!

have to say. The 460mm main gun shell of the "Yamato class" is too abnormal!At a distance of ten kilometers, it can maintain extremely high speed and kinetic energy.Moreover, the "Dart 2" is far from reaching the maximum terminal speed of Mach 3. The impact caused by the simple missile impact is limited, but the direct effect of the 35 kg high explosive is very effective, and it collapsed its stable trajectory at once!

The second missile rushed at an interval of less than a second, but the trajectory it adopted was to hit from the other side of the arc, but the strike of the previous one had already taken effect.After the warhead hit the air, it received updated data from the fire control radar at the rear, and continued to accelerate in a wide circle, distorting a huge S-shaped track in the air, and hitting another shell head-on!

"Boom!" The dazzling flash exploded less than 100 meters above the sea level, and the intensity was so intense that the battleships on both sides could see clearly.Nan Yunzhong glanced at the bead and almost dropped it, and exclaimed: "Ni Ni! What's going on! Why did it explode in mid-air!"

The trail of the missile is too obvious at night. He has seen it a few times and he doesn't know how terrible it is. Some people even researched it and thought it was a guy called a "rocket", but it was mostly used by the army. , or used by the Air Force, the giant navy warships are rarely afraid of this thing.

He wasn't sure if what he encountered was that kind of big guy. No one saw his real body. These two guys with long flames exploded in the air. Could it be that something went wrong?

"Si... Your Excellency, Commander! It seems to be our shell! The shell has been hit!"

The artillery commander's weak reminder was not crisp at all, obviously he himself was not sure.

But Nanyun Zhongyi immediately believed his judgment!Because looking from a distance, the shells that should have exploded at the predetermined distance, except for one that exploded a column of water after spanning more than ten kilometers, the other two unexpectedly fell into the water and exploded less than eight kilometers away!

This is simply impossible!The triple-mounted turrets are aligned, aiming at the same target. You can spread them horizontally, but with the same warhead and charge, the distance spread is several hundred meters. The difference is three kilometers. What a big accident it takes !

What's more, the distance between the two sides is only ten kilometers. With the level of the Imperial Navy gunners, it is not surprising that they hit directly. The only possibility is that they were intercepted by that fire-breathing guy!

Or that the shells had ruined their secret attack?Who believed it!

Nanyun Zhongyi was trembling all over, and sweat was pouring out!If that's the case, it's really terrible!Cannonballs, are cannonballs!The one-and-a-half-ton steel lump blasted out of a gun barrel as thick as one person has a muzzle velocity of more than 800 meters, and even at twenty or thirty kilometers, it has supersonic speed. Human eyes can't see it, let alone aim and shoot!

Moreover, such a big guy has so much kinetic energy that it is almost unstoppable. What a powerful force is needed to stop that guy!The battleship opposite, this battleship...!

Nagumo Chuichi suddenly had a very bad feeling. His grasp and confidence seemed to be nothing more than illusions. After thinking about it, he knew that if the other party did not have absolute confidence, how could he still go in when he found a large number of warships? Drill?This thing is so strange!

"Isn't this the China Navy?!"

The judgment is that the Chinese navy is almost subconsciously thinking, but now he is not sure!This is simply ridiculous!Those are cannonballs, not stones thrown casually, if they can be stopped anywhere, there is no need to fight this battle!

Nan Yunzhong straightened his voice and shouted: "Come on, everyone! Observe carefully and see what the enemy ship is doing! Fire! Keep firing!"

Inside the "Yingzhou", Zhu Bin flicked his fingers calmly: "It seems that the interception efficiency is quite high, but it's a bit too expensive! How many steel shells can one missile make...Forget it, continue to collect data. Send Two torpedoes, try that guy's skin, how thick it is!" (To be continued...)
