Republic of China: Our great warlord has many children and many blessings

The shells streaked through the air like meteors, and both sides came and went.

Forrest Gump was also hit by Japanese battleships seven or eight times, but none of them hit the vital points and he was still able to fight.

Thick smoke billowed from the sea and the smell of gunpowder was everywhere.

A-Gump ordered the battleships to keep pulling and fighting back.

Anyway, there is nothing else but a lot of shells and coal.

After all, there is Shen Hao, a mobile material.

The two sides were stretched for almost hundreds of nautical miles.

According to A-Gump's own experience, the dreadnought battleships of both sides are almost the same, with a endurance of no more than 5,000 nautical miles.

When I first saw the Japanese dispatching cruisers and destroyers, I wanted to attract firepower.

A-Gump sneered:"Deploy mines and attract them in the direction of the mines.""

"Yes."

After seeing the Japanese cruisers and destroyers entering the mine area,

A-Gump said:"The 12 main guns continued to bombard the Japanese battleships, and all the secondary guns were aimed at these cruisers and destroyers. Hit me hard. Don't be stingy with shells"

""Yes" and at the same time called submarines to circle back and encircle them.

Within a distance of less than two thousand meters, the Japanese destroyers and cruisers were violently bombarded.

The Japanese army was not to be outdone and began to fight back. There were more destroyers and cruisers, but not many artillery pieces, and the caliber of the artillery shells was also small. Not big, but even so, it had a great impact on the four battleships.

Just when the two sides were fighting inseparably, suddenly a cruiser in the front exploded.

"Baga, it’s a mine"

"The cruisers and destroyers of"Fast Mine Sweeper" slowed down because they knew that they had entered a minefield.

Mine weapons have good concealment, long action period, low manufacturing cost, are easy to deploy and difficult to sweep, and have a great shock effect. They are the best choice for maritime offensive and defensive operations. Important auxiliary means.

At this moment, ten submarines had quietly approached a distance of less than 500 meters and slowly floated upward.

For the sake of accuracy, the submarines boldly approached 100 meters forward.

At this time, the submarines had already It has surfaced.

In the past, the presence of the submarine must have been felt at 400 meters, but now the gunfire is blazing, and the sound of the gunfire covers everything.

And the mind is staring at the mines, not paying so much attention.

After the destroyer and cruiser slowed down, they also This improved the accuracy of torpedoes in disguise.

While the Japanese army was still focusing on the battleships, suddenly two destroyers bombarded and exploded one after another.

Three destroyers and the remaining three cruisers were attacked by torpedoes at the same time.

Among them Two destroyers were hit in their ammunition depots and exploded directly into the sky.

A cruiser was also hit on the flank and began to flood wildly.

Although the other cruisers were hit by torpedoes, they did not suffer much damage.

Now only The remaining one destroyer and two cruisers can still move and continue fighting.

During the day, through the sunlight, the view is better.

Only then did the Japanese army see the appearance of the submarine clearly.

At this moment, the submarines have all surfaced.

Looking around There were 10 submarines, and they were so dark and oppressive that they all gasped.

They didn't expect that the opponent actually had so many submarines.

A commander hurriedly said:"Torpedoes for defensive counterattack."

Just when they were preparing to counterattack, ten submarines The submarine's upper deck guns and anti-aircraft machine guns fired wildly at them.

The distance was only about three hundred meters. Although the submarine's anti-aircraft machine guns and artillery were not as powerful as large-caliber artillery fire, they were still very lethal at such a close distance.

The Japanese The Navy was beaten into pieces as soon as it was ready to load bombs.

It's not that submarines don't want to continue to use torpedoes, because the performance of submarines in this matter is limited. Today's submarines do not stay underwater for long, and they have to surface from time to time. Go to the water for repairs.

Not only that, after one torpedo passes, the opponent will find it. If you want to launch the second torpedo, it will take about ten minutes just to reload. It is too late.

Now that you have discovered it, you might as well just go to the water and hit it.

Of course, although a submarine equipped with artillery can engage the opponent's surface ship, it is only limited to the opponent's small ship.

If a submarine company uses artillery to engage in artillery battles with the opponent's warships above the destroyer, it will be unthinkable.

It is precisely because it is a destroyer. , and cruisers, these submarines dared to surface.

Of course, the number of artillery of the ten submarines also had a huge advantage.

At the same time, nearly a hundred secondary guns of the four battleships fired.

This time it was not an ordinary shell. They were all high-explosive bombs.

Boom!

The remaining cruisers and destroyers were all hit under the double-layer attack.

In just 10 minutes, all the remaining destroyers and cruisers were sunk.

However, even a submarine could not escape. Bad luck, being hit by a torpedo from a destroyer.

It must be said that this destroyer is the nemesis of submarines.

Submarines are slow and take time to dive. Once discovered or targeted, there is no way to escape. Either you die or I die.

What's more, three hundred meters is also within the destroyer's torpedo attack range.

One submarine was replaced by four cruisers and three destroyers. It’s hard to say who lost and who gained.

Kato Yutaro saw through the telescope that the other party had ten submarines, and gasped.

He underestimated the opponent's strength.

Soon, all the crew members on a submarine were rescued.

Nine submarines sank again.

Today, Kato Yutaro's two fleets and two battlecruisers, Kongo and Kirishima, have also been destroyed.

Six more cruisers were killed yesterday, and four more were lost today. A total of ten cruisers were completely lost.

Three destroyers had just been destroyed, and two more destroyers had been destroyed by artillery fire from both sides.

It can be said that there are only six battleships left.

All six battleships have been damaged to varying degrees.

Of course, two of the four battleships on Shen Hao's side were also seriously damaged, one was intact, and the other was also hit by three cannons.

The battle has lasted for almost two hours.

The artillery fire on the Japanese side is getting weaker and weaker, and there are almost no shells left.

A battleship has 12 12-inch (305mm) main guns and 21 5-inch secondary guns.

305mm naval gun, with a total length of 15.25 meters and a weight of 51.85 tons. The muzzle velocity of the gun is 855 to 1120 meters/second, and the rate of fire is 2 to 3 rounds/minute.

The 305mm gun can fire ordinary shells, armor-piercing shells and high-explosive shells. The shells weigh 380 kilograms.

A battleship can only carry a maximum of two hundred rounds of 305mm naval shells.

It was all gone in less than two hours at most.

Calculating silently, A-Gump sneered and said:"Move back and replenish the shells.

Then press forward. The shells on the opposite side should not be enough."

The shells of both sides are almost the same.

So, Shen Hao approached the battleship in a submarine and took out 400 armor-piercing bombs and 400 high-explosive bombs from the system.

Fortunately, there are system rewards. Otherwise, it would take several hours just to transport hundreds of tons of heavy artillery shells by manpower.

After the shells were filled, Shen Hao quietly got on the submarine again.

Use the observation glass to secretly look at Ding..
