Next chapter
On the blue sea, 101 ships slowly stopped at the border between Singapore and the Philippines. Under the command of the flagship, they formed a formation to meet the enemy.
The main naval power of the Philippines is a number of decommissioned Western ships, such as American minesweepers, British patrol boats, and some French and American World War II tank landing ships.
Take the Philippine Navy's largest and most powerful frigate, USS Raja Humabang, for example, which can be called a "legendary" frigate, which was formerly the Cannon-class frigate built by the United States during World War II. In 1955, the U.S. military handed it over to Japan, and the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force named it "Hatsuichi" and used it until 1975. In 1978, the ship was handed over to the Philippines by Japan, first towed to South Korea for overhaul and modernization, and then commissioned again in the Philippines in 1980.
It's an out-and-out third-hand cargo, and one bone feeds two dogs.
The ship is equipped with three MK22 76 mm open naval guns, the shooter is exposed, and there is no basic armor protection, three "Burfors" 40 mm twin high flat guns, six "Erlikon" 20 mm high flat guns, and four 12.7 mm machine guns, all of which are standard for the US Navy in World War II.
However, as the main force of the Philippine Navy, there are still two "Hamilton"-class patrol ships eliminated by the US Coast Guard. In August 2011, the United States just handed over to the Philippines a decommissioned Hamilton-class patrol ship, which was renamed the USS Gregorio Del Pinar by the Philippines, which is considered the most advanced warship in the Philippine Navy.
However, the backwardness of equipment did not stop them from despising the new country in their hearts.
They may be weak if they hit China, but they don't need to fight the small country of Xinguo!
There are 51 main combat ships, more than 50 auxiliary ships, and more than 100 warships lined up on the Singapore-Philippine border in the western Pacific, and the naval soldiers held their heads high. Standing on the deck with a gun, there is quite a "king's army" style!
The commander of operations is Major General Jesús Milian, who can be regarded as a "young and promising" faction in Philippine politics. During his tenure as commander of the Philippine Navy. It sent the Marine Corps to jointly hold a "landing assault" exercise with the US military, put forward the strategy of "frontline first," the strategy of "playing hooligans" on the beach, held a celebration of the 116th anniversary of the founding of the army in Ulugan Bay, which is only 100 nautical miles away from the disputed islands, and planned to build a naval base there......
Standing in the command cabin tower of the Hamilton-class patrol ship, which is the flagship. Admiral Jesús straightened his naval hat and looked out at the tranquil sea level.
For an overwhelming war, he is thinking about how to humiliate his opponents who are not capable of doing so.
The Philippines needs a real battle to show the world its naval prowess and deter the petty ones who repeatedly harass its borders.
Guardian-class frigates?
It's very strong, yes, Maozi's weapons have always been very rough. But I heard that those idiots dismantled the ship's 100mm A-190 guns and replaced them with a gun that didn't tell what it was. The wide flat barrel resembled a lying "tuning fork", and Jesús did not think that thing would pose a threat to the "Hamilton" patrol ship under him. The most important main gun is missing. With just 2 14.5mm machine guns, what can even a Guardian-class frigate do?
Jesús is very clear, although Mao Zi sold the ship to Jiang Chen, the anti-aircraft missiles and anti-ship missiles on the ship were dismantled. After all, these equipment are military secrets, and even if they are business friends, there is no reason for Russia to do the trick of giving them everything.
The adjutant walked up to him and gave a clean military salute.
"Five A-50s have arrived in the skies and are in cruise mode. Harpoon-1 requests attack commands. ”
Jesús smiled and didn't answer, but asked an irrelevant question.
"Rolando. Let's talk about what color suit is more appropriate to wear to attend the celebration ceremony. ”
Rolando was stunned. Then he smiled happily.
"I recommend the blue one. ”
"As I thought, it was my favorite suit. As he spoke, Jesús squinted at the horizon in the distance and chanted a limerick in the ancient Tagalo language, "Our warriors are ready to try, and the other side is still grinding on the road......"
However, the admiral obviously had no talent, and he was stuck before he could say a word. The captain and first mate next to him were all watching, and Jesus's expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Rolando, who was standing aside, immediately nodded and relieved his boss. "It's like going to the execution ground. ”
"That's right! it's like going to the execution ground!" Jesus laughed and patted Rolando on the shoulder, glad that his men were so knowledgeable. "Don't wait, pass my order! The speed is 6 knots, and if they don't come, we will fight it! And our air formation, approved for battle!"
"Yes!" Rolando straightened his back, blushed with excitement, and opened his voice to the walkie-talkie, "This is the conning tower, Harpoon-1, the target is the opposing flagship, and it is approved to fight...... Harpoon-1?"
There was a busy sound on the other end of the intercom.
Rolando's face gradually changed, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
At this moment, on the deck outside the conning tower, someone pointed at the clear sky with a scream.
"What's that!"
Between the white clouds, a fighter plane roared by, and then two sparks bloomed in the air.
On the flying fragments, the word A was inscribed, and it burst into the ocean in a stunned sight. Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, the Aurora-20 cannon tore apart the fragile armor and faith of the A-50 like sharp claws, repeating this cycle with high mobility.
Two were shot down in an instant of the firefight, and the remaining three A-50s had realized the gap in equipment and tried to get rid of the IR missile's lock.
However, the two Aurora-20s did not give them a chance to escape.
Five tail flames swirled and staggered in the air, clashing in an instant, and three sparks exploded again in the clear sky.
The Philippine fleet, which reacted, immediately released an orange-yellow bullet rain into the sky, but the Aurora-20 dodged it as dexterously as a petrel, dropping two aerial bombs and quickly rising above the clouds. Hot decoy bombs flew in the air, disrupting the pursuing anti-aircraft missiles.
"The frigate Raja Humabang has been shot, the ammunition compartment has caught fire!
“…… The Kemira anti-submarine ship was shot! The deck was broken!"
Jesús's face was pale, because the amount of information was too large, and he couldn't accept it at all for a while. The previous ease had been shattered, and the trembling fingers were raised, and he straightened his crooked navy hat, but he couldn't put it on well.
"Sir......" Captain looked at Jesus with the same pale face, and the ominous premonition in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
However, in any case, he couldn't say the word "retreat".
Just then, the mutation happened again!
An orange-yellow arc of light pierced the silent waves, and without warning, it passed through the side of the Hamilton patrol ship that was sailing at the forefront of the fleet, leaving a hideous gap! The hull of the ship was torn open by the huge kinetic energy of the cannonball, and it was pushed to the surface of the sea. The sea water poured in frantically, instantly submerging this "foreign ship" that the Philippines regarded as proud.
Jesús's complexion had turned waxy white, and his previous conceit could no longer be seen on his face.
His lieutenant, Rolando, had forgotten his words, and his pupils were glazed looking at the calm sea.
They didn't even get a good eye on the opposing ship, and they were pierced by shells flying from the side.
Yes, this is an asymmetric war.
It's just that the identity of the asymmetrical party does not belong to them, but to the opposite.
"Run!"
The vain pride was shattered, and Jesús shouted this sentence into the walkie-talkie with the last of his courage.
The Philippine navy began to disperse and then turned around and fled.
However, the two Guardian-class frigates that had already arrived on the battlefield would not let them succeed, and the Type 50 J-based shipborne electromagnetic cannons raised high in the air kept charging and firing repeatedly. The orange-yellow trajectory drew a large curvature arc under the traction of the earth's gravity, and under the observation of the Tianyan-1 satellite, it harvested the Philippine ships that fled in a hurry.
Two Kilo-class submarines cruised the edge of the battlefield, torpedoing ships that tried to escape, like fishing boats to drive away schools of fish.
The nightmare belonging to the Philippine Navy has just begun!
Fragments of steel loomed in the waves, wails and prayers drowned out in the sound of explosions.
The fire bloomed on the surface of the sea, reflecting the red of the sky.
For a while, it was impossible to tell where the sunset was.
