The sea is mostly quiet, with only a few seagulls chirping occasionally.

But now the tranquility has been shattered, and a huge ship has broken through the sea.

The ship's engines were running at full speed, and a large amount of black smoke was spewing out of the chimney, and the sound of the engines working could be heard from afar.

This was the Cleveland-class light cruiser that Otowa was on, and after leaving the port, they rushed to the training ground near the sea.

"Can you handle it?"

"Absolutely. ”

As if to confirm this, the four main turrets on the ship slowly turned, and each aimed their guns at the direction of 3 o'clock.

Seven or eight thousand meters away in the sea, a hundred-meter-long ship was floating.

Although the ship was a warship, it had been dismantled from its weapons, and the whole ship looked in tatters, as if it had been around for a while.

Boom –

The 12 guns roared almost at the same time, and in the majestic muzzle flames, one after another 152mm caliber shells flew towards the target.

A few seconds later, the shells all fell into the sea, stirring up column after column of water.

This result was not surprising to Otowa, firstly, because the distance of the battle in the naval battle was too long, and secondly, she did not know what the trajectory of the 152mm MK16 gun was, so she had no way to predict it.

After a few rounds of test firing, Otowa was able to figure out the trajectory of the thing.

Boom –

The round finally didn't fly, and although most of the shells fell into the sea, a few still hit the deck of the target ship.

After the impact, none of these shells exploded, but instead burrowed into the hull with a huge amount of energy.

Only then did the time-delay fuse on the shell work, detonating the 152mm armor-piercing shell inside the ship.

If there were people on this ship, it would have suffered heavy losses by now.

"You haven't been on a boat in a while, have you...... How do you feel like your skills are still improving?"

It wasn't long before Arisha's voice was heard on the radio.

"My strength has always been so strong, but I was constrained by the ship some time ago and couldn't play it. ”

With that, the ship shook again—another round of 152mm shells were fired.

The first round can hit the target, the second round will naturally not fly, and this time the number of shells that hit the enemy ship is even higher.

Although the lethality of the 6-inch (152mm) gun is not as good as that of the 8-inch (203mm) gun, it is superior to the fast rate of fire with many tubes, and the shells that can be fired per minute are several times that of others.

Only half a minute passed, and the target ship floating on the sea was hit by more than a dozen cannons, and I have to say that Otowaba's gunnery is just as terrifying at sea.

"The next target, in the direction of 4 o'clock, is 8300 away. ”

"Roger. ”

The ship's turret turned again, aiming its guns in the direction Arisa was pointing.

Without making Otowa wait long, a ship smaller than the one floated up.

That's right, it's floating, and the target ships in the war game are also cool.

……

"The field of vision is still too limited......"

The observation environment in the fire control room is not very good, and basically only one side of the target can be seen, and there is no omnidirectional field of view.

Otowa already regretted it a little, it was not as good as the open-air guns on the deck.

"Don't complain, don't you still want to go to heaven?"

"Heavens...... It seems to make some sense. ”

To Arisha's surprise, Otowa not only did not refute, but seemed to be lost in thought.

"What do you want to do?" Arisa said, confused.

"This ship has a seaplane catapult, right?"

"Yes, yes...... Eh, what do you want to do?"

"Help me prepare, I'll go over now. ”

Before Arisa could reply, Otowa kicked open the door to the fire control room.

In fact, the fire control room only has various instruments to facilitate observation, and the real operation still depends on the tablet computer in Otowa's hand.

In other words, as long as the tablet is in hand, the sound feather is actually the same wherever it goes.

As long as Otowa feels that it is convenient to aim in the sky, then the last wave of heaven is not impossible.

The US imperialists seem to be very fond of seaplanes, and even destroyers have been forcibly equipped with catapults, not to mention cruisers with a standard displacement of 12,000 tons like Cleveland.

The sonic feather on the Cleveland stern catapult is no stranger, and she used it to smuggle Arisa in waves.

Although the poor performance of the OS2U Kingfisher did not make a good impression on Otoba, it was not the plane itself that was at fault, but the three pontoons underneath the plane.

It is precisely because of these pontoons that affect the pneumatics that they are all salted fish, and only the one-time hurricane performance of the British without pontoons can barely be said.

In addition to the familiar plane, Otowa also met a familiar person here.

"Oto, Otowa?"

"Long time no see, Xiaoxue. ”

Looking at the bewildered green hair in front of him, Otoha couldn't help but smile.

Even though she hadn't seen her for a while, Kitajima Xiaoxue still looked quite energetic, and the two big bows on both sides of her head were shaking energetically.

"Is Xiaoxue in charge of the water plane?"

"Uh-huh. Xiaoxue nodded.

"Then please~"

After touching Koyuki's head, Otowa walked to the water plane on the catapult.

After being suddenly attacked by Otowa, Xiaoxue's face instantly turned red, and a few traces of steam seemed to be seen rising from her head.

"Xiaoxue, don't be in a daze. ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, right away. ”

It wasn't until she was reminded by Otowa that she returned to work.

The frame that fixed the water plane began to turn, aiming the fighter at the sea on the side of the hull.

"Come on, Otowaba!"

"Oh!"

The catapult worked and threw the two-ton water engine out.

Unlike the last ejection, this time Otowa was well prepared, and the lever that controls the throttle valve was pushed to the bottom in advance, so the take-off was relatively smooth.

Buzz Buzz Buzz –

Hearing the familiar noise of a piston engine, Otowa couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, the turbine sound of the jet fighter is good, and the piston or something is just bursting, okay?

"Otowa, do you know what you're doing!"

Arisha's voice came in through the radio on board.

"I just wanted to fight my way. ”

Otowa spoke leisurely as he adjusted the equipment on the fighter.

"It's been so long that no one has been able to aim directly on the plane, and you can't do it with Otowa!"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

In naval battles in war games, seaplanes are generally used to reconnoiter and correct ballistics, and Otowa was the first gunner to want to direct a battle directly from an airplane.

This kind of thing doesn't sound easy, but Otowa believes that he can do it.
