The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

"Actually, if we want to completely annihilate this adventurous enemy ship, we don't even need our fleet to take action. Only shore-based defense weapons are enough to blow them all to the bottom of the sea!"

On the battleship "Taishan", the temporary flagship of the North Sea Fleet, Captain Ouyang Ji withdrew his gaze from the screen on the command podium, and said indifferently to Deputy Captain Yang Daozhao. -"

Under Fletcher's command, the rapid change of the task force's behavior has been accurately reported. The Americans do not know that in the entire Chinese waters, the actions of any ships or even aircraft that appear here cannot escape the eyes of surveillance.

Under the sea, there are robots that have been laying communication cables day and night, arranging sonar arrays and submarine static counterattack weapons since a few years ago. Fish schools can be noticed when they come.

On the surface of the water, the elusive submarines and the circling reconnaissance planes are all good eyesight, and the shore-based radar directly covers the Korean Peninsula, whether it is the air or the sea, at a glance. [

During the war, the high-altitude hot air balloons, high-altitude early warning aircraft, and satellites that were called over form a three-dimensional search and security network. Even if you have three heads and six arms, 72 changes, don't even think about hiding it.

Zhu Bin's defense methods for his lair are not used to the extreme. If he speaks out, he can frighten a lot of people.

Under such complete control of the battlefield, no matter how the U.S. warship changes, it will be predicted in advance, and it will not be a big problem to fire guns, guided missiles or torpedoes to kill it.It can be said that such a battle is not challenging!

Therefore, the commanders of the warships participating in the battle did not have their blood boiling, and they completely followed the standard procedures during the exercise and carried them out in an orderly manner.Naturally, great results can be obtained.

Regarding the captain's words, Yang Daozhao agreed: "Yes! This is our inland sea. If allowed, how could the Americans get in? It must be that Chief Zhu is thoughtful and wants to give our North Sea Fleet a chance to clear the snow for our ancestors. Shame. Use the blood and wreckage of the enemy to pay homage to the passionate and loyal souls in Dadonggou! Naturally, such a meaningful thing cannot be done by others!"

Well, in fact, the truth of the matter is that when Zhu Bin made an oath publicly on Liugong Island to commemorate the ancestors of the Beiyang Navy, he made a promise that the ancestors of the old navy must not leave any regrets. At that time, there was Sa Zhenbing Waiting for the old-timers to witness it with their own eyes.

It's just that the Japanese Navy has never fought in this sea area.The three or two dead cats in the Third Fleet didn't even look in his boss Zhu's eyes, so he waited until today.

Coincidentally, the Americans were whimsical and wanted to use what they thought was a suitable tactic to go deep into the enemy's rear and assist the army in combat. Of course, such a good opportunity could not be let go, and they immediately told the North Sea Fleet that the opportunity had come.Should not be missed.How to do it, you can figure it out!

Xie Gangzhe had also sworn an oath back then.On Liugong Island, there is a monument, the Beihai Fleet, which undertakes such a mission.

So the current tactics were arranged.Shore-based anti-ship weapons are not allowed to take action, except for electromagnetic guns, which are just a little bit of presence once in a while.The real battle must be done by these battleships.

Moreover, it is not the kind of use of guides to directly sink the opponent, but to follow the fighting style of the classical navy and push each other forward.Pull the battle line, knife to knife, cannon to cannon, one eye at a time, desperate to kill!

This move alone made all the young people in the entire fleet feel hot!

The navy, that is an offensive arm, is a conqueror facing the world. They should be adventurous and fearful by nature, and dare to face any difficulties and battles!

Therefore, not only did no one express any objection, but they also expressed their approval from top to bottom.beat!That's the way it should be played!It is not a skill to defeat the opponent with unconventional weapons, let alone show our ability!

In fact, this is all caused by Zhu Bin's evil taste, but he also put on a majestic cover, and the flickering group of sailors are full of energy and fighting spirit...

People like Ouyang Ji and Yang Daozhao all came from the former Central Navy. Not only were they not marginalized, on the contrary, after two years of refurbishment, each of them was entrusted with important responsibilities.

Just like the two of them, what they were driving before was just a "Hai Rong" cruiser built in the late Qing Dynasty. The old steel thing with less than [-] tons was too laborious to dismantle and make steel, but in the Central Navy It is the main force of one of the Four King Kongs, and it can't keep up with a newly built destroyer even if it is bundled together.

Now, they control a battleship full of more than 4 tons!It was a change from a shotgun to a cannon. Although the military rank did not change much, they were still colonels, but as commanders, they all knew how much they had changed!

Ouyang Ji said: "To defeat the enemy head-on, let them speak. The key is to express our determination and will in this way. I believe that our ancestors will definitely see it, and it will also allow all officers and soldiers to truly experience the cruelty and passion of naval warfare." As it should be, the orders of Commander Zhu and Commander Xie are very correct.”[

This is an affirmation of their way of doing things.

Taishan-class battleships do not have an electromagnetic shield system. Under conventional power, they can only install intelligent electronic auxiliary facilities as much as possible to multiply their attack power.In addition, of course, it also obtained the enhancement of new types such as the extended range of the bottom row, as well as new things such as guided guns. The overall power is still quite powerful.

The two battleships lined up are sailing at a stable speed, changing their sailing posture in real time according to the position of the target ship, and always maintaining the position of the turret salvo, but it doesn't matter whether the opponent is charging or parallel, it is actually the same for them!

"Boom---hum!" A messy explosion sounded around. After the huge sound wave impact was transmitted through the heavy armor, it has become like a drum deep in the earth, dull and thick, but lacking in impact.

Under the impact of the opponent's near miss, the huge hull of the ship was jingled and exploded by fragments, and sparks flew everywhere, but at most there were a few scratches, and there was no way to break through a hole---with what they had Armor strength, at such a distance, even if it is directly hit by armor piercing, it can be opened.

The hull shakes slightly, but the center is as stable as the ground, no one needs to reach out to hold something, outside.The water column more than [-] meters high was blown up, wrapped in muddy sand, and splashed on the deck and turret, stimulating a high-temperature water mist on the surface of the hot gun barrel after firing, and was immediately blown away by the rushing wind!

The surface of the Taishan class is almost a steel shell wrapped in full armor, and it is usually hit by fragments and small-caliber cannons.It's hard to damage anything --- the guy who even has anti-aircraft turrets with full protective armor, almost doesn't stay with them at all!

The flashes of the incoming guns opened up the dense fog, and the shock of the air waves generated when I fired, exposed the entire ship even more. The fleeting figure fell into the eyes of the American night reconnaissance plane that ventured out and wandered around, full of power. In contrast, the American battleships with billowing smoke all over their bodies.It seemed very embarrassing.

With close-range bombardment of more than 20 kilometers, the accuracy of both sides will greatly increase.With no big waves on the surface of the Yellow Sea, each other's figures are very stable, and the standards are easy.

It's just that under the influence of smoke, one can use the radar to accurately calibrate the firing, and even use the man-machine to provide detailed data on the impact of each shot, while the other can only estimate by feeling.This gap is really incomparable!

So Fletcher was more depressed.They have four battleships, all in the main formation, and they are all 406mm large tubes.

Shelling for an hour.All four battleships won!The worst one was already crooked by more than half and could not move. The lightest one also suffered more than five rounds of armor-piercing. Except for the front of the main turret, which was barely blocked, the main armor belt, which was the key protection, still couldn't hold it along the arc. Orbital bombardment kills past guys.Tear out holes one by one!

Fletcher had to take advantage of the shelling gap to transfer the fleet headquarters to the inner aircraft carrier to avoid the more and more accurate guns. This method of hitting every round is really cheating, and I can't afford to hurt it!

Seeing the four warships start to catch fire, and the number of main guns capable of firing has decreased by half, Fletcher probably understood that this battle might not be easy to handle, and he couldn't help but feel heavy.Taking advantage of the dense fog and night, most of the opponent's unconventional advantages have been offset, but there is still nothing to do. Then tomorrow, if he uses all the means, will he still have a good end?

In desperation, he looked at the other ships surrounded by the two wings, hoping that these guys could create miracles.

On the right wing, the approaching raid unit composed of more than a dozen cruisers and destroyers made a small circle, and went around to the back to prepare to release torpedoes to chase after them. However, they only wandered to a place close to [-] nautical miles, and the sudden sound of chasing souls in the air There was a terrifying roar, and immediately after, a large group of brilliant light illuminated the sea, and a second-class destroyer of the Japanese army rushed to the forefront and blasted a piece of steel sparks from the midship. Into two pieces, more than a hundred casualties!

"What's the situation?! Was it hit by a torpedo?!"

wrong!There is a roar in the air, it can only be---cannon!Terrible cannon of great power!

During the day, the entire fleet knew that there was a terrifying giant cannon staring at them on the coast opposite them. So, is that thing firing now? !

You guessed it!It was the super electromagnetic gun on Liugong Island that intercepted it.

With black lights and blind lights and heavy fog, there will be huge deviations in visual inspection and radar.The auxiliary ships dominated by the Japanese army are well aware of the hydrological data of the Yellow Sea, and they will never collide with the reefs. It is most appropriate for them to attack manually, but it is still very difficult to successfully attack from a distance.

This is not the case with the shore-based electromagnetic gun. It obtains the grid coordinates provided by the submarine sonar array. Every enemy ship will send out a signal when it passes by. It is accurate to the level of meters, which is not much different from direct observation. [

A warship more than 100 meters long is the target, and the accuracy of the meter level is enough!

Since the Beihai Fleet has made up its mind to let the capital ship take revenge, it will not let the small body be mixed in to make so-called sacrifices. The shore-based electromagnetic gun is just stuck in a strategic location in the entire northern part of the Yellow Sea. work!

The split-type cannon weighing more than 100 kilograms is fired at an initial speed of Mach [-], and its terminal speed exceeds Mach [-]. The kinetic energy alone is enough for a battleship to drink a pot. When a destroyer of a thousand tons hits it, it is like a hammer smashing an egg. Same, immediately shattered and exploded!

One shot!one ship!It is more brutal than the main gun of a battleship!

The head of the electromagnetic gun not only has armor-piercing kinetic energy, but also can cause a fire like a depleted uranium head.It will cause a martyrdom explosion, such a smashing ability is simply appalling!

That is to say, the strike speed is not very fast, and it feels that the lethality is not so human, but for the attacking Japanese and American navies. Losing a ship in 1 minute, they can't stand this speed!

Boom!Boom!

Group after group of huge fireworks erupted on the sea, the unique clanging noise of steel collisions, and the tooth-piercing groans of the explosion, forming a strange rhythm, illuminating the dark and misty sea. The people on the surrounding battleships were terrified!

In the sound, under the sea.Some boxes that were buried in the mud and even had a lot of seaweed growing on the surface vibrated slightly, opening dark holes one after another. The next moment, the round holes quietly floated up to the surface under the action of buoyancy. From the beginning to the end, there was a big movement None were sent out.

When it stabilized slightly, the horizontal cylinder exploded with a "bang bang", and torpedoes sprang out from inside.After rushing out for more than ten meters close to the water surface, the engine was running, and the water waves pushed up a curved water pattern.Faster and faster towards the nearby target!

Every warship in the coalition task force is using active sonar to search back and forth. The water depth at the junction of the northern Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea is average, and it can easily penetrate. Submarines must hide when they come. Of course, they did not expect to be within twenty nautical miles. Just found those mysterious guys outside.Where would you expect such a weird thing to come out?

The naturally emerging torpedo barrels did not make any loud noises, only the moment of launch, but the sound was on the water surface, waiting for the torpedo's built-in sonar to start working.By the time the tick-tock hit the ear of the opposing ship's sonar operator, it was too late!

On more than a dozen ships, the sonar crews all uttered a terrifying scream: "Torpedoes! A large number of torpedoes are coming!"

Not from the front, but from the two wings, from the rear, sandwiched between three breadths, the farthest is only three to five kilometers, and the closest is even within one kilometer, running all the way close to the water surface, with high-powered searchlights, you can even see the shape A running figure like a giant shark!

"What?! How is it possible! Our sonars are all on, and there are absolutely no submarines in the nearby waters. Where did they come from?!"

All the commanders were stunned, almost going crazy!

In a hurry to command the warship to maneuver and evade, but there is no time!Even for a torpedo that has just been launched, it takes only a blink of an eye to easily accelerate to more than [-] knots. Once the built-in sonar locks on the target, it is very difficult to run away!

The ships that reacted faster immediately released bait and intercepted them. Groups of gasoline tank-sized deep water blasted out to hundreds of meters. After falling into the water, they exploded rumblingly, creating a large column of water, but the effect was very limited!

The torpedo designed by Zhu Bin and Tesla is not a simple sound induction or magnetic induction, but a quasi-smart thing with its own search sonar. It is locked according to the command of the launch mother body and self-locked, with double verification and few mistakes.

One of the most unlucky second-class light cruisers was caught off guard. The torpedo drilled into the bottom of the keel and exploded. The exhausted force generated by 240 kilograms of high explosives threw the entire hull of the ship in midair. The seawater forms a big steamed bun with a diameter of 300 meters and lifts her bottom.

But the terrible water pressure destroyed all the keel and hull in the first moment, and they exploded and broke, and then they were engulfed by the violent eruption of fireworks and blasted into two pieces, front and back. Separate and smash into the sea!

Immediately afterwards, several destroyers were hit by torpedoes one after another. The ones that hit the tail caused the whole ship to bend almost like it was folded over. It erupted into a fan surface hundreds of meters wide, sweeping the sea surface and the superstructure of the body like a steel storm, smashing the soldiers who were caught off guard into meat sauce and cutting them into pieces!

Those who hit the waterline in the midship were twisted and shattered by the side squeeze, pulling out a gap tens of meters long and pouring water quickly; the impact of the explosion on the flat shot shattered all the buildings on the side of the island, killing and injuring all personnel. Even the whole boat was overturned on the spot, with its head upside down and its belly upside down!

There is also a lucky one, who was only seriously injured under the bombardment of a torpedo, flooded and overturned, but couldn't hang up for a while, and jumped into the water to escape, but after falling into the water, they found out that his mother's, it's only October, why is the sea so so? cold!It feels almost the same even if there is no zero temperature, this will not last long!

The torpedo explosions scrambled one after another, and the large area of ​​water boiled like a pot. The fire that broke out in the center illuminated the surrounding ships, making the people on it turn pale with fright, and directly exposed the bright figure!

The super electromagnetic gun immediately took advantage of the fire and attacked the bigger guys alone. The sound of shattering steel was like a devil's death charm, which hurt the group of guys who were trying to attack coldly!

Fletcher quickly received the report, and the communications officer's voice was trembling: "Sir! The ships that attacked on our right wing were hit hard! Not only did they encounter terrible shelling, but they were also injured by torpedoes from unknown sources. Disastrous! No effective support can be provided!"

Fletcher's face turned blue, and he suppressed his anger and asked, "What about the left wing? They shouldn't have a big problem there, right?!"

The left wing, outflanking the front of the enemy battleship along the edge of the Korean Peninsula, is also in place at this time.It's just that the encounters of these ships are not much better than those on the right! (To be continued..)
