Accompanied by the huge explosion, the huge hull of the aircraft carrier shook violently. The unprepared officers and soldiers instantly became unsteady and staggered one by one, including some unlucky guys. He fell directly to the ground.
The most miserable thing is actually the carrier-based aircraft moored on the flight deck and stored in the hangar. In the previous battles, although the losses of the carrier-based aircraft on these five aircraft carriers were not small, they were not completely wiped out. , there are still some survivors.
However, these carrier-based aircraft that were not shot down in the air swerved left and right under the violent shaking of the aircraft carrier's hull, and some hit each other. What's more, they slipped directly from the flight deck and fell into the sea. among.
Fortunately, after the battle, for safety reasons, the fuel and ammunition in the fuel tanks of the carrier-based aircraft stored in the hangar were drained, otherwise they would not have been blown to pieces under such a strong impact.
If these carrier-based aircraft exploded in the hangar, it would be a big trouble. After all, although the management of these aircraft carriers is standardized, the previous wars also made the ground staff in the hangar quite tired, and they did not follow the management regulations. Restore fuel and ammo into the fuel depot and ammo depot.
If an explosion occurs in the hangar, all the fuel and ammunition accumulated in the hangar must be detonated. Without the need for the First Squadron to attack again, these aircraft carriers can be completely destroyed by the explosion.
When the explosion stopped and the aircraft carrier stopped shaking violently, the staggered crew members got up. The officers on the aircraft carrier hurriedly lay next to the portholes and took a look at the situation outside, wanting to know where the inexplicable attack came from.
"Torpedo is an underwater torpedo attack"
"Reporting to the commander, several holes have been blown near the waterline, and the nearby watertight cabins have been urgently closed, but the situation is not optimistic."
"If it is attacked by a torpedo again, the watertight compartment will no longer be effective, and a large amount of seawater will quickly pour into the interior of the ship."
"No, we are being targeted, and an enemy warship is coming towards us."
Under the thick darkness, you can see clearly with the naked eye. However, these crew members on Yuntong Island are not novices with little experience. Each department quickly reported the specific situation. This also made these crew members who had been working hard before The officers and soldiers who were watching the show in silence understood what happened. It was probably that the aircraft carrier had been attacked by a torpedo.
Although they knew what the situation was, the officers on the aircraft carrier turned even paler. They knew where it was. The incoming attack is one thing, but whether it can be dealt with is another matter.
It was pitch black outside, and the torpedoes sailed on the sea at a very slow speed. The lookouts could not quickly see the incoming torpedoes. How can we provide timely warning and information to the pilots on the bridge with the direction and number of aircraft carriers?
This is equivalent to allowing several aircraft carriers to move irregularly on the sea, relying on luck to avoid torpedo attacks, and only But only God knows how useful this is.
What's more, it's not just torpedoes that attack them. Amidst the whistling sounds, shells fell from the sky and landed around the five aircraft carriers. There were even With great luck, the first hit hit, directly blowing a big hole in the long flight deck of one of the aircraft carriers.
Through the detection of the radar system equipped on the aircraft carrier, it was possible to find enemy warships flashing red. The ship is constantly adjusting its hull, and the distance between it and them has been shortened to less than 6 kilometers.
With such a close distance, it is no wonder that the other party dares to directly use torpedo attacks. Since the other party dares to do so, it is not obvious that there are no aircraft carriers on its own. Large-caliber naval guns, only some small-caliber artillery and anti-aircraft guns, will not pose any threat to these warships. They really have no martial ethics and are too bullying. In fact, this is also the case. I took the risk of sending a Fletcher before. -class destroyer, was hit by two 406mm diameter heavy artillery shells fired by the battleship. The battleship caught fire and became a large torch floating on the sea. Finally, it encountered a concentrated fire attack by the Yuntong Island Fleet. The first battle since the establishment of the Chinese Fleet occurred. The battleship was sunk for the first time.
This was regarded as a great shame by the commander of the First Squadron, Langsdorff. Langsdorff would not be reconciled unless the Yuntong Island fleet was completely annihilated.
Through the powerful level 8 radar system The detection capability and the picture provided by the radar imaging system allow Langsdorff to control the situation of the entire battlefield more accurately, and it is also easier for him to make timely adjustments to the tactics of the First Squadron.
This night attack has been going on until now It has been a full three hours. Many warships on both sides were hit by artillery shells and suffered varying degrees of damage. However, in comparison, the Yuntong Island warship, which was already heavily damaged, suffered greater losses. Not only Two battleships and one battlecruiser were sunk by the concentrated fire of the two battlecruisers of the First Squadron. The other light and heavy cruisers and destroyers suffered greater losses.
After all, compared with the main battleships, the armor value of these battleships was higher. It is much weaker, but it cannot withstand too many shells. At least now, all the destroyers in the Yuntong Island fleet have been sunk. The
Benson-class destroyer itself has only 6,000 points of armor value. Compared with the Fletcher-class The destroyer's armor value of 8,000 points was 2,000 points less, and its artillery hit rate was not as good. The ship's hull was already heavily damaged. In this kind of battle, it was naturally the first to suffer.
After successfully sinking all the destroyers of the Yuntong Island fleet, the Fletcher-class destroyers in the First Squadron changed their targets and concentrated their naval gunfire on the light cruisers, hoping to assist their own light cruiser formation and quickly Destroy the opponent's cruisers.
But just after achieving some results, a Fletcher-class destroyer was sunk by the Yuntong Island battleship. This instantly angered Langsdorff, and he quickly issued an order for these destroyers to change their attack targets. , quickly approached the five aircraft carriers that had been staying in the center of the battlefield and had not been attacked.
Originally, because aircraft carriers did not have much combat capability in night battles, Langsdorff deliberately missed these five aircraft carriers when assigning attack targets. He planned to wait until other warships were sunk before dealing with these aircraft carriers. , maybe they can be forced to surrender, allowing the Chinese fleet to add a few more aircraft carriers.
But now, Langsdorff's thoughts have changed. He no longer thinks about forced surrender. Only total annihilation can extinguish the anger in his heart and wash away the shame of him and the First Squadron..
The reason why Langsdorff dared to send out a destroyer formation to attack the aircraft carrier so boldly was not because he was blinded by anger, but because he was sure and confident.
After such a long battle, the strength comparison between the First Squadron and the Yuntong Island Fleet has changed. In terms of main battleships, the two sides are tied, and each also has 2 battlecruisers.
In terms of heavy cruisers, the Yuntong Island side barely remained intact, but it had freed up its hands and no longer needed to attract and contain the Yuntong Island battlecruiser. The 4 Baltimore-class heavy cruiser had already launched a bombardment against them and took over this burden.
The destroyers have all been wiped out, and the only ones left are the Linxian-class light cruisers. What they need to face are 6 Brooklyn-class light cruisers. The performance of the battleships is quite different.
With 5 triple 152mm cannons and 8 single-barreled 127mm cannons, even a heavy cruiser would not be comfortable with such firepower, let alone these Linxian-class light cruisers with an armor value of only 12,000 points.
If the Brooklyn-class light cruisers hadn't poured most of their firepower on the heavy cruisers on Yuntong Island, several of these Linxian-class light cruisers would have been sunk long ago.
But it was not too late now. The Brooklyn-class light cruiser, which had adjusted its firepower and attack targets, was able to fight quite easily. It didn't take long for the Linxian-class light cruiser to be beaten with more artillery. The crew tried their best but could not put out the fire on the ship.
With such a bright target and the data assistance provided by the fire control radar, the hit rate of this artillery attack should not be too high.
".boom"、"boom"、""Boom!"
The light cruiser formation on Yuntong Island can be said to be on the verge of desperation. Some captains went crazy and directly issued orders to launch torpedoes in the direction where the muzzle flashes were flashing. As for whether they could successfully hit the enemy ship, Then they have nothing to do with it. (Made Zhao)
In fact, the torpedoes launched by these Linxian-class light cruisers did not achieve any results. Of course, some of the warships on both sides were relatively far apart and exceeded the effective range of the torpedoes.
Upgrade to The level 8 radar system not only has an additional fire control system, but also integrates a sonar system. Some movements under the water cannot be detected by the sonar system.
Uncontrolled torpedoes are scurrying around underwater, but It was discovered in time by the Brooklyn-class light cruiser with the help of its sonar system and successfully evaded it. These desperate final attacks did not hit any battleships of the First Squadron. Instead, they accidentally damaged their own battleships. It can be said to be embarrassing to the extreme.
After this battle, the First Squadron has basically secured the victory. Next, we just need to see how much time it takes and how much price it costs to completely annihilate this Yuntong Island team. Just a fleet
"boom"、"boom"、""Boom price" time passed by, and the explosions on the sea also came one after another, never stopping. One warship after another slowly sank in the violent explosions, most of them were from the Yuntong Island side. battleships. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
But it also included a Fletcher-class destroyer and a Brooklyn-class light cruiser. These were also the two battlecruisers that were attacked. The final result of the desperate effort...
