The Fourth Disaster, Starting from the Movie Eight Hundred

The Fourth Disaster, from the Movie Eight Hundred, Chapter 76

In a certain "realistic" battleship online game called Yamaguchiyama, players can simply tap the keyboard and the anti-aircraft cruiser can chase and attack the aircraft of the aircraft carrier, which fully proves the value of modern air defense (nods).

The real-life WWII wasn't anything like this. Even when anti-aircraft barrages were effective in threatening enemy aircraft, it was only after technological superiority, such as the US military's proximity fuse and radar system, was achieved. This was only possible under the protection of a fleet's air defense network.

In addition, the Japanese aircraft themselves were not powerful enough, which allowed the US air defense system to output happily after technological upgrades.

If you want to truly achieve this effect, there is only one way, and that is to combine modern phased array radar with air defense nuclear bombs.

You heard it right, it's an air defense nuclear bomb. This can fully avoid the problem of nine out of ten defenses being ineffective. Under the combined effects of shock waves and radiation, the interception barrage composed of nuclear bombs can fully solve the problem of not being able to hit enemy aircraft. -p

As long as my blast radius is large enough, no plane can escape.

However, the countries in World War II obviously did not have such arrogant defense technology. No matter how good the anti-aircraft guns were, they would only be in a passive defensive posture when facing enemy planes that came and went freely.

But today, the volunteer army used the Jilin to prove a truth that subverted the world.

Battleships could hunt down Japanese naval aviation with just their anti-aircraft guns.

The outrageousness of this matter is like the fact that the two-dimensional mobile games represented by Bilibili make more money than Tencent's mobile games. Is this reasonable?

Don't worry about it, since it has already happened. But the brave Japanese are not afraid of difficulties. They feel they can still regroup their troops. After all, the enemy only has one Liaoning (Jilin: Nima!), while they have many warships and planes.

The gap between the two sides is huge, so it’s not an exaggeration to say that I have the advantage.

The Japanese carrier-based aircraft regrouped their attack formation and began to charge towards the Jilin.

Just now they suffered a devastating blow when they were three kilometers away from the Jilin. In this case, this time they would drop torpedoes from three kilometers away and sink it with a saturation attack!

Two groups of Japanese torpedo planes approached from the side of the Jilin, preparing to drop torpedoes.

Then the 155mm dual-purpose anti-aircraft gun on the Jilin began its performance."

When torpedo planes in World War II were performing bombing operations, they had to maintain a certain stable flight posture. During this process, the torpedo planes could only try to get close to the sea surface and could not dodge at will, otherwise the torpedo delivery would fail.

Therefore, the dive bombers would attack the target ship at this time to disperse its anti-aircraft firepower and cover the torpedo planes' bombing, because torpedoes are more threatening to warships than bombs dropped from dive bombers.

Of course, if you are like Akagi Kaga at Midway Island, and cover yourself with explosive points, that’s a different matter.

As a result, these Japanese torpedo planes began to be accurately targeted five kilometers away from the Jilin, which also made the Japanese pilots understand how terrifying and accurate the reaction speed of the Jilin's anti-aircraft guns was.

Under normal circumstances, when seeing an incoming aircraft, the anti-aircraft gun groups on the warships would open fire at full power, but the anti-aircraft gun groups on the Jilin were extremely steady. They would never fire unless the aircraft was within their effective destructive range, and not a single round of ammunition was wasted.

The Japanese pilots were stunned. What kind of outrageous and sophisticated combat preparation mechanism was this? Or did the Volunteer Army have some advanced super fire control technology that could make all the weapons on the warship coordinate to an astonishing degree?

I don’t understand, I really don’t understand.

But they knew at least one thing: this ship was beyond their power to move.

But the Japanese commanders in the rear did not know this. They did receive the news reported from the front, but subconsciously thought that the pilots were not brave enough and refused to carry out the mission.

This kind of thing has happened to the Japanese Army before.

Before withdrawing from the Chinese mainland, the Japanese army had become a frightened bird, and no unit was willing to fight against the volunteers, so they often lied about military intelligence, such as "The volunteers have been spotted, requesting tactical guidance", "The volunteers are encircling our rear, requesting tactical guidance", "The volunteers are about to attack the city, requesting tactical guidance", etc.

Similar telegrams actually all have one goal - retreat.

Unable to defeat the enemy, they could only retreat and save their lives in the chaotic world. Anyway, the Japanese army had already lost to the volunteers, and escaping was considered a great victory. Domestic newspapers could all boast about it, "Our army's tactics have shifted, and the troops are in good order. The volunteers are chasing them in a panic, and their decline is obvious."

This is the German Winning Studies 1.0 World War II Journalism Edition.

Good, good, good! I didn't expect our Navy to learn the bad instead of the good, and actually play the Army's horse shit tricks. Do you know that we are at sea, at sea! This is our home turf, the place where the glory of the Empire of Japan rises. You actually think it's okay to be afraid of death in the navy. What a bastard!

So this time, Nan Yun, who was in charge of the command, did not worry about how to choose between torpedoes and bombs. Instead, he forced the naval pilots on the front line to continue the attack and take down the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) at all costs.

As for the issue of long-range torpedo delivery being unsafe, then won’t you crash into it with bombs?

When the volunteer army still had old planes, they dared to exchange one plane for a whole ship. The warriors of our Great Japanese Empire should display this spirit of fearlessness. It is time to launch the navy's boarding.

Although it didn't have a name yet, Japanese naval aviation pilots on the front lines were indeed forced to use kamikaze attacks.

Gentlemen, the bitterness of my hometown has begun.

"It's a black card, it's onboard!"

After great sacrifices, a Japanese plane finally achieved victory and crashed into the Jilin.

"Onboard!"

Looking at the flames and explosions on the Jilin, the Japanese naval aviation pilots became excited.

It works, this battleship is not invulnerable after all!

At the same time, the players on the Jilin were quickly entering their work positions, and the nano-welding guns began to repair the damaged areas.

"Hurry up, this needs repairs!"

"I'm coming, I'm welding now, don't rush me."

"With a welding gun in hand, I own the world. Just a mere impact damage, and I'll be back to full health!"

Seen from the sky, the location where the Jilin was hit was pitch black, but if the Japanese pilots could get closer to observe, they would find that the damaged wounds on the Jilin were disappearing visibly, leaving only a charred coating. The inside and outside had been completely repaired, the health bar was full, and the combat effectiveness was not affected at all.

The fact that the Japanese naval aviation pilots could not see such a desperate scene can be regarded as the last kindness of fate.

The Japanese planes, thinking they had broken the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin)'s golden body, began a crazy attack. Soon two more planes crashed into the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin), and three torpedoes hit the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin), but the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) was still speeding at a speed of 34 knots, and the main gun was ready to fire.

Because the Japanese air defense fleet in the Taiwan Strait is already within the range of the main guns.

How far? Thirty-seven kilometers.

Wait a minute, can you hit it from such a long distance? And it's a moving target.

Never mind. In the player's field of vision, the enemy warship has been locked, its movement trajectory is marked in red, and a predicted shooting circle appears, so you can open fire.

The one being targeted is Prince Snow.

We meet again, what a fate.

"fire!"

In the face of the enemy head-on, the two twin 406mm main guns on the front of the Jilin roared. The distance between the two sides at this time was 36.2 kilometers. After one minute of flight, two of the shells accurately hit the hull of Atago.

Wait, where's Prince Snow?

Three kilometers away, when the Atago was maneuvering, Prince Snow took the initiative to give up his own route in order not to hinder the movement of the cruiser, and then Atago was the one who got beaten.

You are worthy of it, Prince Snow (praise).

Suddenly, two 406 shells struck the Atago, whose steering gear was locked. The Atago was stunned. What was going on? Where did the shells come from?

The Atago's encounter caused the other Japanese warships to fall into a state of tense and disorderly maneuvering, because the captains of the Japanese ships immediately judged it to be a submarine attack, until the Yukikaze observed it at close range and informed the other ships that it was an artillery attack.

So the question is, where did the shells come from? Did the Volunteer Army transfer their K5 railway guns?

But the explosion power is obviously much greater than that of K5.

After a while, the Japanese air defense fleet in the Taiwan Strait received unbelievable news.

The artillery fire just now was probably... possibly... perhaps... should... maybe... was fired by the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) which was maneuvering towards here.

"Liaoning!? Where is she?"

"Reconnaissance aircraft reporting, 18.9 nautical miles away."

"Nani!?"

Chapter 143: Super Battleship

(The third update is here! Does anyone still have tickets?) -p

Historically, on July 9, 1940, the British Royal Navy's World War I veteran HMS Warspite hit the Italian Navy's battleship Cesare at a distance of 24.14 kilometers, setting a record for the longest moving-on-moving hit in the history of battleships.

But in this parallel world, the most outrageous battleship-to-battleship hit record in human history was created by the Jilin.

The 406 main gun hit the Atago with two shells in the first round of artillery fire from 35 kilometers away, directly paralyzing it. To achieve such a hit, the right time, place and people are all indispensable. At least in the understanding of the Japanese army, this is like buying ten lottery tickets in a row and winning from the first prize to the tenth prize. Such an outrageous dream is unimaginable.

But just as they were shocked, 406 artillery shells fell from the sky again, and then the maneuvering Kaohsiung was hit by one shell, and a fire broke out immediately.

Once was luck, what about the other two times?

However, this time the distance between the two sides was shortened a bit, but it was still more than 30 kilometers away, 18 nautical miles away. It took more than a minute for the shells to fly over. With the speed of a cruiser, it can travel a long way in a minute. It can still hit the target. Could it be that there is a prophet on the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) on the opposite side!

Perhaps sensing the doubts in the hearts of the Japanese Navy, after a while, the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin)'s shells fell again, this time with both good news and bad news.

The good news: the cruiser was not hit this time.

The bad news is: this time a destroyer was directly blown up.

This is the third time! This is the third time! It's not a coincidence, nor is it luck, but the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) can fire at such a distance and ensure accurate hits from this distance.

Some sharp-eyed Japanese sailors also discovered that the three rounds of falling shells were six each. The main guns of the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) were arranged with two in front and one in the back, and were triple-mounted. In other words, the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) was galloping at full speed while only using the main gun in the front to fire at more than 30 kilometers away, and it was still guaranteed to hit the target every time.

If this is the technology of the Volunteer Army, then what kind of terrifying technology is this! ?

Even battleships would have to scream and dodge when facing the 406's artillery fire, not to mention that these Japanese warships in the Taiwan Strait are all destroyers and cruisers.

"Evasive maneuver! Evasive maneuver!"

"Be careful of the Liaoning's artillery fire!"

"Spread out! Don't block other people's avoidance routes!"

The captains of the Japanese warships had no idea what incredible technology the Volunteer Army had used, but they at least knew what they should do at this time. Don't think about air defense, and quickly avoid the enemy's main gun salvos.

But even if it made the right choice, the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) still used its terrifying artillery fire to tell the Japanese Navy that it was meaningless to evade, and you just changed the way you greet my artillery shells.

When Yamagami Tetsuya assassinated Abe, he fired a shot first to announce his arrival, and then fired a second shot to announce your departure. But the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) said that going through the process was too complicated and you should just leave.

At this time, the Japanese Navy had gone crazy. They really couldn't understand why the Volunteer Army would create such a horrible warship. What they couldn't understand the most was the Japanese Navy that had fought to this day.

Almost all the carrier-based aircraft on the Shokaku and Zuikaku were lost. The Liao (Ji) Ning (Lin) was hit by more than 30 torpedoes and 18 aircraft were hit. However, the ship still maintained its speed, firepower and accuracy. Except for looking a little darker, it was completely strolling in the garden despite all the output of the Japanese army.

"Monster, monster!"

The palms of Japanese naval aviation pilot Komura were full of sweat, and he could hardly hold the joystick.

He was the only one left in his team at this time. Those seniors had already fallen into the sea or crashed into the Liao (Jining) (Lin), but the battleship did not look damaged at all. If it were not for the charred coating, some people would even suspect that the Japanese Navy had never launched an attack on the Liao (Jining) (Lin).

In a trance, Xiaocun remembered the story he had heard from his grandfather.

His grandfather was also a navy officer and participated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. In his story, the most terrifying and powerful enemies were the two ironclad ships Zhenyuan and Dingyuan, which were the most terrifying sea monsters in Asia at that time. In the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, the Japanese army, despite having all the advantages, was still helpless against these two steel monsters. They were hit many times, but they just refused to sink.

But the result of that war was Japan's victory, which led to the establishment of today's Empire of Japan.

But today, the Liao (Jining) (Lin) performed a miracle that even the Dingyuan and Zhenyuan could not perform. Those two ironclad ships were not immune to torpedoes, but the Liao (Jining) (Lin) did it.

Fear made Xiaocun lose his will to fight. As the highest-ranking Japanese naval officer on the scene at that time, he chose to watch the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) gradually disappear from his sight, or pray that the other side did not see him.

This is just scaring yourself. The Jilin is not interested in a single small plane that is too far away from it.

And ahead is a larger hunting ground - the Taiwan Strait.

"The Japanese fleet is ahead, time to eat meat!"

The players cheered. Although the anti-aircraft battle just now was very exciting, it was just a small plane after all. The most manly way for a battleship to fight is definitely to roar its main guns.

"Reload the main gun! Show the Japs a taste of the 406's big barrel!"

"Should we get a 460 next time?"

"No, it's too small. I have to change it to 500 to relieve the symptoms."

"I second the proposal!"

Under the desperate gaze of the Japanese air defense fleet in the Taiwan Strait, the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) completed the loading of its three 406 main guns, aimed at three targets respectively, and then fired in unison.

The most outrageous scene in the history of human super-dreadnought naval battles occurred. The three main guns of the Liao (Ji) Ning (Lin) that rushed into the Taiwan Strait were aimed at three moving targets with distances ranging from ten to twenty kilometers. The first round of salvos blew up three Japanese destroyers.

Without any struggle, the three Japanese destroyers disappeared from the sea at an extremely fast speed. It seemed that only such a quick death would live up to the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin)'s astonishing performance.

"Stick to it! Fire the torpedoes!"

At this desperate moment, the brave Snow Prince rushed forward, she really rushed forward!

As expected, loyalty is revealed in times of hardship. The bravery of the Yukikaze successfully inspired other Japanese warships, who turned their guns and torpedo tubes and began to charge towards the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin).

Yes, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a battleship. Hope never dies, hope still exists!

Snow Prince, who was extremely lucky, dodged the main gun fire of the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) five kilometers away (the shells hit the teammate behind her), and also dodged the barrage of 155 dual-purpose guns (her other teammate's ammunition depot was directly blown up), and rushed to a position less than one nautical mile away from the Liao (Jin) Ning (Lin) in one breath.

The perfect distance, the distance where the torpedo could never miss.

"Fire! Fire!"

At this time, Yukikaze was the hope of the entire Japanese fleet, and everyone was shouting in their hearts.

"emission!"
