The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Since Xie Gangzhe planned to close the door and beat the dogs, how could he not prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry and fleeing in a hurry?The purpose of deliberately giving up the northern sea area and allowing it to seize the position is for the final blockade, so how could it be attacked by the small tactics of dividing into joint attacks?

Two battleships seized the center line of the combat waters, and the guns could surround and take care of the entire passage, while in front, there were two heavy cruisers, one light cruiser, and two amphibious assault ships in an arc formation, sealing off the go!

When the detoured Japanese and American ships had just approached a distance of [-] kilometers, the main guns of the four battleships fired at once, and when they came up, they were caught off guard!

With black lights blinding fire, water mist filling the air, and blurred vision, a unilaterally transparent battlefield is such a bully. -" The 203mm triple turrets of the two provincial-level heavy cruisers, together with the two 280mm main guns of the amphibious assault ship, fired a general volley suddenly, blowing up a destroyer that was charging ahead. !

Derived from German origin, the amphibious assault ship with quasi-battleship force can be described as an all-rounder. The radius of the six main guns is large enough to attack the sea and the shore, the power is large enough, and the accuracy is large enough. [

Within 300 kilometers, even a real battleship can drink a pot with his more than [-] kilograms of guns, not to mention these mere destroyers dominated by the remnants of the Japanese army, one shot can blow him up.

The explosion flames that suddenly rose into the sky nearby, and the terrifying scene of the ship being hit and shattered, made the rest of the surrounding enemy ships suddenly frightened, and hurriedly deviated from the original route to maneuver. Far away, where is the target!

The situation is very bad for the Japanese and US troops!

The consistent style of China's navy.When the war starts, electromagnetic shielding will be used to prevent them from communicating with each other, and they can only communicate with each other by light signals.But in such a thick fog, although it is not impossible to see the five fingers, it is not easy to see that the light is weak when it is several kilometers away.It can't even penetrate, let alone find enemy ships more than ten kilometers away!

If you thought it was a blind cat hitting a dead mouse just now, you are absolutely wrong!Just over a minute later, another U.S. destroyer was blown up on the spot by a cannonball, and the instantaneous explosion flames generated by the explosion of the medicine depot swept across a clear space with a width of one kilometer. The entire attack fleet can be seen clearly!

Something is wrong!The other party has a way to clearly see where they are.It is very dangerous to strike separately!

Although the situation of poor communication with each other has been expected, it is still touching and tense when it comes to an end!The rest of the battleships hurriedly turned around according to the predetermined tactics, and released groups of torpedoes towards the predicted possible position of the enemy ship.

This is the only way they can come up with it!The heavy cruiser was ordered to hide in the north or escort the capital ship, and these little guys took advantage of the chaos to take advantage of it, which was originally Chenggu's pleasure.Things that don't work and don't have much hope are for the present.Let's talk!

Most of them are Japanese [-]-acid torpedo torpedoes, and a few American torpedoes of poor quality are mixed in. The speed varies, but the quantity is really quite a lot!

There are at least two quadruple torpedo tubes on a destroyer, and a salvo of a dozen of them.Can the movement be quieter?

The plopping torpedo fell into the water, triggering a response from the submarine sonar, and the alarms were sent to the fleet command center one after another. Xie Gangzhe immediately ordered to be more vigilant, and at the same time ordered the array operator: "Turn on the high-power active sonar. Scan the Japanese ship , give them some stimulation!"

The water in the Yellow Sea is shallow, most of which are less than [-] meters away. A sonar with a slightly higher power can directly penetrate the seabed from the sea surface, making it difficult for submarines to hide.The reverse is also the same. Occasionally, the active sonar on the seabed is connected in series with the signal beam that sweeps upwards obliquely, and can easily collide with the passive sonar of each warship. The sound is called intense!

"Oh! Shet! We've been spotted by enemy sonar! It's a submarine! It must be a submarine!"

The sonarists, nearly deafened by the sudden high-intensity signal, screamed and dropped their earphones, yelling.

"Submarine?! Here?! Such a short distance!? Damn! No wonder they can hit so accurately! Quickly, find them, kill them! Kill them all!"

The orders given by the captains of each battleship are similar, and they "understand" at the same time why it is so easy to be targeted and bombed by the opponent. There are submarines nearby to provide coordinates for detection!

It's really horrible!Taking advantage of the black light to make a black hand?Dare to come close to investigate, live impatiently!

More than a dozen destroyers, most of them carrying anti-submarine hedgehogs, or deep-water bombs, followed the signal direction of the sonar scan, judged the approximate distance, swung their tails and smashed the bombs out one after another. The water column is rushing, and there are rumbling dull explosions one after another, one after another, it is very lively!

The people on the amphibious assault ship and heavy cruiser in the distance were all happy, and these guys became frightened, being led around by the non-existent submarine, and ignored their heads! [

Each made a prediction according to the attack route and speed of the enemy fish, calmly avoided it, and made one-on-one fixed-point detonation of a few torpedoes that unexpectedly approached by mistake, avoiding the collision safely, regardless Most of these torpedoes, which only rely on the primitive means of hitting luck in the direction predicted in advance, got rid of it, and then continued to fire.

On the amphibious assault ship, the four heavy-duty armed helicopters carried by each also took off, and with advanced night equipment, they approached the sky above the enemy ship from an altitude of thousands of meters!

In the distance, each helicopter locks on to a destroyer, calculates the straight-line distance of about five kilometers, and launches an attack decisively!

The light anti-ship guided missiles mounted under the wings were decoupled and fell. After a second, the ignition was accelerated, and a group of two rounds swarmed towards the target on the sea!

Based on the h-1 Harpoon subsonic anti-ship missile guide, the h-2 "Short Arrow" guided missile, which has a reduced body and warhead, has a maximum range of only 15 kilometers and a self-weight of only 150 kilograms, but it has a half-piercing weapon of up to 50 kilograms. A warhead, the maximum speed of Mach 08 provides sufficient impact kinetic energy, and the sea skimming can reach a minimum of 10 meters, relying on compound means such as inertia, airborne radar guidance, and infrared active guidance.It is easy to lock the target early!

The two missiles launched together quickly hit the target!

For all destroyers, the chimney is the most obvious source of infrared signals, not to mention the guidance signals provided by helicopters. They quickly fall from high altitudes to low altitudes and fly over the sea and continue to accelerate, reaching the limit of subsonic speed in a blink of an eye. Arrow.Crashing headlong into the thin steel plate of the hull!

The semi-armour-piercing blasting warhead easily tore apart the steel plate, and the delayed fuze detonated inside. Dozens of kilograms of high explosives and thousands of prefabricated fragments exploded in an instant, like an empowered battleship grenade!

Amidst the loud rumbling noise, clusters of orange flames illuminated the target ship, and the terrifying explosive force instantly extended the damage to the hit position to the maximum, even for a destroyer with a displacement of [-] tons.I couldn't bear the destructive force twice, either the power system was blown up on the spot, or the bridge was directly blown up, and the last time was paralyzed, the gun turret was blown up, and they were severely injured immediately, unable to move!

The target of this air-launched missile is a ship under 1000 tons.Basically, one can kill the power of one.Facing a destroyer with a displacement of two thousand tons.It still has deadly lethality. If you go down two, you will only have half your life left if you don't die!

Each armed helicopter carries at least four or more air-launched missiles, and the two-round attack method can be described as vicious.After finishing one group, launch another group immediately, and leave calmly at the same time as the explosion sounded, leaving no chance for the opponent to fight back.

This time, eight warships were attacked and exploded at the same time.The scene of dozens of explosive fireballs rising into the air over the sea with a radius of tens of miles is a spectacular and mighty scene. The eight enemy ships, with one exception, all ignited raging fires, the steel collapsed, and the casualties were heavy. They couldn't move, and some even started to pour water!

Especially the destroyers of the Japanese army are generally small in tonnage. Those in the early days had a displacement of less than 1500 tons, and their metallurgical capabilities were poor. Even a missile could be killed.

There are only a dozen or so attack ships in total, and most of them are in a half-dead state now, and the entire formation is in a predicament.

The killers on the opposite side were complacent, and the living target became a dead target, so why not take advantage of the fire!The battleships immediately re-dispersed and locked on one of them, and fired salvos to replenish their guns. After a few rounds, all the severely damaged destroyers were blown up and sank!

Seeing that things were not going well, the few remaining ones turned around and fled in panic, never thinking of a sneak attack again.

The joint command of the task force fleet, with the change of the flagship to the innermost aircraft carrier, Kondo Nobutake is the deputy commander of the fleet. Except for battleships, almost all naval power!

This time, if it succeeds, it will be the Japanese Navy's successful revenge. If it fails...it will almost be the last elegy!

Except for the four U.S. battleships, most of the light ships are composed of Japanese ships, so he also pays special attention to the progress of the battle. The loss of the right wing makes him feel very bad. At that moment, his face turned black, and he almost gnawed all his teeth!

"Damn it! Don't you have any chance at all? China people, what's the matter with showing weakness before! Could it be that they want to kill us all? It's too deceitful!"

As a senior officer of the Japanese Navy, he would not be ignorant of where this place is.

The Yellow Sea, to the north is Dadonggou. 50 years ago, after the Imperial Navy became an army, it concentrated all its essence, blocked the national fortune, and defeated the Beiyang Navy of the Qing Dynasty, the number one in Asia, in one fell swoop, and was even dragged back by them, and finally dismantled and sold , Leaving the iron anchor as a specimen to declare military exploits, it has humiliated the Chinese for more than half a century! [

That was the fateful battle of the rise of the empire. Since then, Japan has gradually reached the pinnacle of world powers, and it has been out of control.

Today, almost all the active forces of the dilapidated United Fleet are gathered here. Facing China's North Sea Fleet, it seems that the old things are happening again, but the result... seems to be reversed!

If Fletcher still doesn't see a problem, he is not qualified to be one of the best generals in the US Navy.Seeing a series of bad news coming one after another, and looking at the constipated expression on the Japanese guy's face, he knew that things were not good.

At this time, he also suddenly remembered that something major event that could be recorded in the history of naval warfare in the world had happened in this place, and when he connected it with China's previous response, he immediately had a bad feeling in his heart.

"General Kondo! The current situation is very bad. Do you have a better way?"

Nobutake Kondo shook his head simply: "We must have fallen into the trap of the Chinese army. Or, they have planned a long time ago to use such tactics to meet the battle. No matter who breaks in, the result will be the same. Same. Well, I think. They're just going to wipe us out!"

"Damn! How dare they think so?! Do they really think that they can completely eat us?!"

Fletcher thumped the table angrily, his hand hurt from the shock, but it only attracted a trace of indifferent ridicule from the Japanese.

Why don't you dare to think about it?Before, they were in the East China Sea, facing the entire United Fleet that was almost in full swing, didn't they still beat the mighty Japanese navy to pieces, almost annihilating the entire army?Ten freighters were converted into aircraft carriers and six battleships.Hundreds of ships of various colors all turned into steel waste and sank to the bottom of the sea. Such a tragic failure was only made by the East China Sea Fleet as the main force. '

Today's task force is far inferior to what it used to be. Since the Chinese dare to challenge the United States, why don't they dare to destroy the invading fleet?

What annoyed Fletcher was the opponent's tactics.It is obvious that he completely despises his existence!Before, only one coastal defense gun was used.Giving a long-range strike is a warning, right?If he had ordered the entire fleet to retreat at that time, the North Sea Fleet would probably not bother to move.

After the task force came in, they retreated calmly and outflanked decisively, without any hesitation in the middle.That was already made up.It doesn't matter whether it's yourself or someone else, the way you deal with it is the same.

Even a few super battleships and terrifying strange cruisers withdrew and did not participate in the battle. This level of confidence is incomprehensible!

Fletcher is a man with a high opinion of himself.He thought he was destined to be recorded in the annals of the world's naval generals, how could he be so underestimated, let alone admit defeat easily.

After thinking about it, he decisively ordered all the warships to shrink back to defense, get rid of the unfavorable fighting situation in front of them, and wait until dawn and the fog dissipated before trying to find a way to launch an attack.The lowest and the most threatening North Sea Fleet has no time to withdraw to support the ground attack. This is one of their goals!

Kondo Nobutake shook his head to express his dissent: "I don't think the Chinese will let us retreat easily. Since they launched an attack, they will not stop until they completely kill us. Your Excellency, you know, This is the northern part of the Yellow Sea, on the side of Dadonggou, and in my judgment, the Chinese want to avenge their shame here!"

"Aren't we ashamed enough?!"

Fletcher was furious.In less than two hours, all four battleships were seriously injured, and one was directly lost. Combined, the cruisers and destroyers were killed or injured more than [-] ships, and the main force of the entire fleet was lost by more than half.

This is far beyond the loss of the Beiyang Navy at the beginning. What else do they want?Annihilation?

Nobutake Kondo sighed deeply: "Even if it is not a complete annihilation, it will not be much worse! At the beginning, they lost the national fortune in the First World War, which led to 50 years of decline. Now they have the opportunity to defeat the two major powers at the same time. I will not miss it. The commander of the China Fleet, Xie Gangzhe, was a famous person before, and when he took a high position, he must show his bravery and feats with a battle that will go down in history. We will be his stepping stones!"

Fletcher almost lost his head with anger, why at this moment, your Japanese devils are actually full of emotions?Shouldn't you be full of confidence as always, and never admit defeat to the end?

"Then what do you think we should do? If we continue to fight like this, our ships will be completely lost! The foggy weather is too bad for us!"

Nobutake Kondo nodded: "For the China Army, this is the complete home field, and frontal combat seems to be impossible. Since you can't withdraw, then go around in circles with them. Let all the submarines be dispatched, or you can provide some Helpful support."

Fletcher exhaled fiercely: "That's the only way!"

I really can't hope for anything else.If it is delayed until tomorrow, the air force will not be of much help. The other party can calmly go back to rest and resupply, but they can't even find a safe haven. They have to find a way to rescue the drowning soldiers everywhere in the sea. It is really a headache ah!

There were more than a dozen submarines that came out with the task force. Before that, they sneaked in from the deep water area along the Korean Peninsula, and sneaked up during the melee, but they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.The water near here is too shallow, if you don't pay attention, you may sink to the bottom of the sea, otherwise, you will be entangled in fishing nets or seaweed, which is quite fucking.

Now, for the fate of the entire task force, they had no choice but to take a risk!

There were more than a dozen submarines, leaving three vigilant guys, and the rest, especially the Japanese I series submarines, were all dispatched, scattered in all directions, swarming towards the two battleships in the center, trying to approach and launch torpedo attacks.

The sonar array under the sea looked at them really, and none of them could hide. Before they got too close, the scattered pre-embedded torpedoes floated up, took a cold breath, and killed four of them at once.

The rest are at a loss, and they press close to the sea surface at a speed of nearly 20 knots. They lock on to the place where the thunder is faintly active in the mist, release the torpedo, and rush forward frantically!
