reborn super empire

Looking at the telegram in his hand, Yang Shuming felt a bit difficult, but in order to end the battle faster, he had to do so. Five warships fought against the little devil's seven warships. In addition, the little devil's mobility is not bad, if they really fight, they don't have the ability to overpower them.

But if the order of the military department is ignored, although the Japanese fleet can be wiped out in a short time, the air force seems to be useless.

"Notify Ship 301 and Ship 302 that they will concentrate their firepower to attack the three destroyers of the Japanese army first, and the rest of the ships will drag the two battleships and two heavy cruisers of the little devil." After a long time, Yang Shuming turned to the flagship communication officer. ordered.

Ship 301 and Ship 302 are Des Moines-class heavy cruisers, which have a terrifying rate of fire. If these two heavy cruisers are put together, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to deal with a little devil's battleship. Although the battleship is very powerful, but His rate of fire is really unflattering. As long as he dodges properly and the two heavy cruisers cooperate well, a battleship can be eliminated very quickly.

No matter how powerful a battleship is, it can't stop the onslaught of 55 times the caliber of 203mm naval guns, and later generations have also confirmed the value of the Des Moines-class heavy cruisers. Although Yang Shuming didn't know this, he knew that the Des Moines-class heavy cruisers could Kill the three destroyers of the little devil in a short time.

As long as these three destroyers lose their combat effectiveness, it will be easy for the Stuka Squadron to join the battle group, and the chance of being shot down will be much smaller. After all, destroyers still pose a great threat to aircraft.Previously, the fighter squadron fought the little devils in the air, because there were also little devils' fighter planes in the air.That's why his three destroyers were useless, but things were different now.

According to the information sent back from the front.The fighter planes of both China and Japan have their own damage, but the damage rate of the Japanese fighter planes is much higher than that of China.At this time, the Japanese destroyers also fired two shots when they saw the right opportunity, posing a certain threat to the Air Force from time to time.

Less than an hour after the fleet left the port, they saw the oncoming little devil fleet. Although the little devil's fleet was also in a state of preparation, it was obvious that they did lose to Huaxia and the Japanese army in terms of the soldiers' reaction. The so-called preparations are just that the personnel stay in their respective positions, and the shells are placed aside.

On the other hand, Huaxia.The shells are loaded, and all the units are basically in a combat state, and according to the intelligence judgment, they will soon meet with the little devil's fleet, so in this case, no one will act too laxly, plus Huaxia's side The shooting range is generally higher than that of the little devil's naval gun, so the Huaxia side fired the first shot, although it missed.But it still reminded the little devil.

"All guns are free to test and target the enemy destroyer." The gunner on the 301 ship directed the various artillery on the warship through a loudspeaker.

'boom!boom!boom! '

After receiving the order, the gunners of each artillery commanded the main and deputy shooters to adjust the angle of the artillery according to the position of the enemy ship.In an instant, colorful jets of water rose up on the distant sea.Each water column represents a cannon, and the gunner judges his adjustment position according to the color of the shells he shoots.

While this may seem cumbersome, it is also time-consuming.But on the Des Moines-class heavy cruiser, this problem did not exist at all, after the first shell was fired.The main and auxiliary gunners quickly adjusted their positions, and then fired the second shell.That is to say, live ammunition. Only the first shell on the 301 and 302 ships was tested, and the rest were all live ammunition.

And with the automatic bomb supply system, as long as the gunner adjusts the angle, he can fire at any time, and there is a squad of soldiers in the rear who are constantly carrying the shells and putting them on the automatic bomb supply system. The efficiency of mechanized combat is instant. It appeared.

The Japanese destroyer was obviously also stunned by the sudden artillery fire. It was okay at the beginning, after all, it was the first artillery fire. Although everyone was shocked, it was far from the point of panic, but the second, third When the fourth shell came, they realized something was wrong.

From the warships of the Huaxia Navy in the distance, it can be seen that there are only two warships firing at them, and what puzzles them the most is that the rate of fire of these two warships is so fast?

The battleships of the Japanese army were obviously not reconciled to seeing their little brother humiliated, and even joined the battle group by firing directly, aiming at ships 301 and 302. It's that simple to watch the battle?Before the Japanese battleship could respond, the Jinxi-class battleship made a pre-emptive strike, and fired a single shot within 500 meters of the little devil battleship.

Although it missed, the first shot was fired within 500 meters, which is enough for the little devil to pay attention to. He originally planned to deal with the two heavy cruiser battleships of the little devil, but he couldn't get out to support his own destroyer for a while. , can only adjust the muzzle, and start shooting against the Jinxi-class battleship.

However, although the destroyers on Huaxia's side are not powerful enough in gunfire, and their main missions are air defense and anti-submarine, the two destroyers are not willing to be lonely at all, and they directly joined the siege of the two Japanese cruisers. The five warships fought against the little devil's seven warships. Except for the two destroyers who fought a little hard, there was no sign of any pressure in other aspects.

The Jinxi-class battleship is one against two, but it has to be said that the Jinxi-class battleship has a displacement of more than 5000 tons, equipped with three triple-mounted 407 mm 50-caliber main guns, plus ten double-guns. Equipped with a high-level dual-purpose secondary gun with a caliber of 127 mm and 38 times the caliber, it is still easy to deal with the King Kong-class battleship of more than 2 tons in the little devil.

For a while, the Japanese army was oppressed by the Jinxi-class battleships. Although the two battleships of the Little Devils had a total of 16 dual-mounted main guns of 356 mm and 45 times the caliber, they were still more powerful than the main guns of the Jinxi class. much smaller.Often the Jinxi class fired a single shot, and as long as the explosion distance was a little closer, it could pose a threat to the hit rate of the Japanese naval guns.

The main artillery shells of the Jinxi class can blast a 15-meter-wide and six-meter-deep crater on land. It would be good if the warship that exploded the little devils at sea can gain a firm foothold.As for the hit rate, either it hit the sky directly and flew behind.Either it is too far away from Jinxi Class.

And there is another fatal factor that forces the little devil to dare not fire with all his strength.The aftermath of the Jinxi-class shells had originally caused the little devil's King Kong-class battleship to sway. If the guns were tilted towards the direction of the muzzle and fired, the hull might not be able to withstand the huge force and cause damage to the hull. If it was directed in the opposite direction, It is very likely that the warship will not be able to stand up after firing the gun.

Don't underestimate the power of the Jinxi-class main gun. Even though the Jinxi-class secondary gun has no suppressive advantage against little devils, at least it won't suffer too much, and the most terrible thing is that the rate of fire is faster than the small Devils are much faster.

'boom! '

More than 20 minutes after the battle started, a shell from the Dahua-class heavy cruiser finally landed on a destroyer of the little devil as it wished.The Des Moines-class heavy cruiser was originally a warship specially built for the main gun, and how could the little devil's small ship of thousands of tons be able to block the power of its main gun?

A single shot directly penetrated the side armor of a destroyer, and a huge hole appeared in front of everyone in an instant. A large amount of sea water was wantonly drilled into the little devil's warship. It is completely impossible to plug such a huge gap. , They don't have the time, and they don't have the ability.Soon, due to water ingress in the engine room and other reasons, the destroyer of the Japanese army gradually stopped, and its hull gradually tilted.

After seeing success. The 301 ship quickly turned its target to another little devil's destroyer. I don't know whether it was the good luck of the 301 ship or the bad luck of the little devil, or it was shocked by the sinking scene just now.However, many shots have been fired before the first shot, so it seems reasonable to sink the destroyer at this moment.

But the Japanese don't think so.No matter how many shots you fired, you didn't hit the hull, and just one shot hit the hull and sank the warship.The soldiers on the other two little devil destroyers even became a little stunned, looking at the sinking destroyer full of disbelief.

'boom! '

After a loud noise, no one attacked him at first, but some small-caliber artillery restricted him from leaving the combat area. At the moment he was in a daze, a main gun on the 301 ship directly hit a shell on the little devil. On the main gun of the destroyer, something even more unexpected happened immediately. Under the main gun was the little devil's ammunition compartment. The explosion of the shell spread to the ammunition compartment, and the ammunition inside also exploded.

How can a thousand-ton destroyer be under such great pressure?The entire bow of the ship rose directly into the air, forming an elevation angle of about 20 degrees with the sea level. The bow and the hull were forced to separate, and immediately hit the water with a heavy head. Perhaps this destroyer would sink more than the previous one. Faster, but no one sympathized with him.

'boom! '

Proud cheers broke out on the 301 ship, but no one expected that the danger was coming towards them. The main gun of a little devil's cruiser had aimed at them at this time, and the 301 ship sank. At the same time as the second destroyer, the main gun also fired.

The little devil's luck seems to be good. The 301 ship just hit the destroyer with one shot, and the other cruiser hit his own cruiser with one shot, and it was directly hit on the side. The two secondary guns on the right were directly fired. One was reimbursed, and more than a dozen soldiers were directly killed and more than 20 were injured. For a while, the two secondary guns on the right lost their combat effectiveness.

Although one of the secondary guns was not injured, the soldier operating it was injured. After being suddenly approached by the little devil, the 301 ship seemed to be much more honest, and hurriedly accelerated forward. At the same time, the spare gunner was mobilized from the cabin to resume Operate the secondary gun that is not broken.

When Yang Shuming saw that Ship 301 was shot by the little devil's cruiser, his heart immediately rose to his throat, but after seeing Ship 301 reacting quickly, he slowly let go of his heart.Now the Jinxi-class battleship still has injuries. Although it is not the main gun, it also caused him to lose the fire support of a secondary gun.

The Jinxi-class battleship seems to be easily dealing with the two little devil's King Kong-class battleships at this time, but only they know whether it is easy or not. If they take off their coats, everyone can see Yang Shuming's wet body back.

It is Yang Shuming's ideal to lead the fleet to sea. He has experienced several ups and downs in his life. He has gone abroad to study and served as a naval captain, but in the end he was disabled and retired. Now he has another chance. When facing the little devil's seven warships, he didn't have the confidence at all. If they hadn't fought a beautiful battle last night, Yang Shuming even doubted whether he would dare to come out to fight this battle? (To be continued..)
