Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 1512 Approaching
The exclamation of Qingquan Mingfeng alarmed the captain of the "Ise" battleship who happened to pass by the door of the radar monitoring room. Omori Sentaro walked in and asked, "Qingquan, what happened?"

"Your Excellency, something is wrong, there are enemy ships approaching!" Qingquan bowed hastily, said anxiously, and then stretched out his hand to point to the radar monitoring screen.Da Mori took a closer look, and his expression became serious.He walked out of the monitoring room and ran to the back of the cabin, picked up the binoculars and looked over - in the camera, several small ships were galloping towards the wind and waves, the military flags on the boats were fluttering, and it was vaguely discernible that it was the flag of the Xuebing Army. He shouted Said: "Quick, sound the alarm!"

The whistle sounded, and in the captain's room of the "Ise", Masamune Arima raised his head from the chart and said to his adjutant, Major Haruyoshida, "Go and see what's going on?"

"Hai!" Haruyoshida responded loudly and ran out.A few minutes later, he ran in with Omori in a panic, and the latter shouted: "Your Excellency Arima, there is an enemy fleet charging towards me at high speed."

Arima frowned, with a skeptical expression, and said, "Enemy fleet? Are you reading that correctly? The Chinese fleet?" As he spoke, he walked out of the captain's room, walked up to the observation deck on the left, and picked up the The binoculars looked in the direction of Da Senxian's finger.The Japanese regard the South China Sea as their own back garden, and Masamune Arima is no exception. When he said that just now, there was a subtext that he didn't say-"Do the Chinese have a fleet?"

At this time, the most advanced torpedo boat of Qi Minghao's department was less than 25 kilometers away from the enemy fleet.Arima Masamune raised his binoculars to look over, the second lieutenant changed his perspective, and caught a torpedo boat that was advancing rapidly in the waves.The little devil was taken aback, and shouted: "Ba Ge, it's a torpedo boat!"

The first country in the world to build a torpedo boat was Britain, and the first country to put a torpedo boat into actual combat was Russia. In 1878, Russia used a torpedo boat to sink a 2000-ton gunboat "Intiba" in Turkey, thus creating a miracle of a small boat beating a large ship.Affected by this, European countries began to vigorously develop torpedo boat forces.Although Japan did not follow suit, there seemed to be experienced admirals such as Ma Zhengwen, but they all knew the existence of such ships.

I can't figure out when the Xuebing Army developed such a large-scale torpedo boat force, and its speed and performance are relatively advanced, which surprised Arima Zhengfu - now is not the time to explore these, he quickly restrained his mind, and shouted in a deep voice : "Notify the escort fleet to turn around and attack immediately to protect the landing ship and troop carrier!" After thinking carefully about the combat characteristics of the torpedo boat, he then ordered: "Scatter the formation, and all ships should pay attention to avoid torpedoes!"

In just 5 minutes, a Japanese ship completed a U-turn.At this time, the front torpedo boat was less than fifteen kilometers away from the Japanese ship. "Bang bang—" A Japanese ship began to fire.The rumbling sound of the guns made the ghost soldiers calm down a lot.

The sudden appearance of the torpedo boat unit of the Xuebing Army surprised the devils a lot.Almost instinctively, after receiving the order, the first reaction of several captains was to look towards the southwest sky, fearing that a group of dark shadows would appear there.It was really frightened by "sink it", so many Japanese ship captains, once they heard the word "attack", they would think that the air force of the cadet army was coming again——

The Cadet Army Air Force has now become a nightmare for the combined fleet devils.

No dark shadows were found in the southwest sky, and the enemy ships that entered the field of vision were so small, the devils who did not understand the characteristics of torpedo boats settled down.As soon as the cannons started to fire, the fear in the devils' hearts completely dissipated.

The Japanese fleet began to disperse under the command of Arima Zhengwen. Almost at the same time, Qi Minghao also issued the same order: "Spread out and advance at full speed! Attack freely with the squadron as a unit!"

Qi Minghao looked very excited.It's not just him, the cadets who went to the torpedo boat unit are inexplicably excited-this is the first battle of the cadet army and navy since it became an army!Regardless of the outcome of this battle, it will definitely be recorded in the history of the cadet army and navy.And if he can make some achievements in this battle, then his name will be immortalized through the ages, right?Thinking of this, the students couldn't help but straighten their waists, and their eyes became more determined.

The closer you are to an enemy ship, the greater the density of shelling you will receive.Amidst the sky-shattering explosions, the waves on the sea surface where the torpedo boat troops were located suddenly rose a lot, and in this man-made turbulent waves, the "Swordfish" really rushed towards the top of the waves like swordfish, and gradually Let those devils who were optimistic at the beginning become taciturn and grim.

"Boom!" A "Swordfish" was hit directly by a shell, and it was shattered into pieces amidst the sound of the explosion and the huge waves.Qi Minghao's 001 was following this "Swordfish", he slammed the steering wheel to the left, and shouted into the fixed microphone: "Brothers, now is the most critical time, rush over and the devil will take us!" There's no other way. Speed, speed!"

The giant guns of the Japanese ships have a minimum shooting range limit, and there are dead spots for shooting. As long as they get close, they can be turned into decorations.Torpedo boats and small boats have two advantages when fighting large ships. One is that the target is small and difficult to aim at;As for the disadvantage, it is because of the limitation of the range of the torpedo, it must be close to a certain distance to be a threat.

The top speed of "Swordfish" can reach about 45 knots. Looking at this time and space, it has already left the similar ships of European countries far behind.When the artillerymen of the Japanese ship fired their cannons, they obviously placed the target in the center of the front sight, and when the shells were fired, they flew over the target's head.

The [-]-kilometer to three-kilometer journey was the most difficult time for Qi Minghao's troops. Japanese ships and naval guns fired wildly, and more than [-] "Swordfish" were hit by flying shells or overturned by huge waves from the explosion. More than [-] young naval officers and soldiers of the cadet army were buried in the cold water of the South China Sea before completing their first combat experience.The Ji side has lost nearly half of the torpedo boats that went to battle before firing a single shot. This is a heavy blow to the morale of the officers and men of the Dongshan Fleet.Some soldiers lost their temper and shouted in the public channel: "Commander Qi, the devil's artillery fire is too dense, you can't get close!"

Qi Minghao was furious when he heard the words, and angrily scolded: "What? Are you scared?!"

"No, I-"

"Don't say anything! Brothers! This is our first battle! Do you understand the meaning of the first battle? Is our navy really a freelancer?"

"No!"

"The meritorious service is now! Brothers, there are a lot of enemy ships in front of us, what are you waiting for?!"

"kill!"

"Brothers, fight for the glory of the navy!"

"Fight!"
