Chapter 21: Killing each other
There is no such thing as a world of good intentions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The gods who are full of malice to weave the end of the road have become taken for granted just because they torture the "war" created by humans.
pursued the innocence and goodness of her predecessors, but she was reduced to becoming a deep-sea inhabitant, and ** controlled her will, sailing to the depths of the sea that she did not want to go to. You can cry out in your heart about the injustice of fate, but you are powerless to do the rest of the resistance.
Yes, the gods have no emotions. Fingertips fall on top of the humble chess piece, a simple command, destroying Ibuki's future.
Begging for help from others, ** Kong's hands showed sharp claws, and the heavy patrol Qiji detected the trackers - Chokai, Maya, Oi, and Kitakami four ships.
"Help me...... Stay back! β¦β¦ Move...... Help me ......"
None of the words could reach them, and Shige-Cruiser's main guns were aimed at the four ships that were about to come into her range, and with her current strength, even a Yamato-class battleship could break through the armored zone. So not to mention two heavy cruisers and two light cruisers, even if she encountered Palau's previous main warship fleet, she was not afraid.
The light screen appeared in front of Heavy Patrol Habitat Hime, and the smiling Harbor Dead Ghost was observing Heavy Patrol Habitat Queen's troubled appearance. "Still have memories of the past? Hehe, I like test subjects with tenacious willpower. The joy of being conquered by me with my mind and brute force! The central suhime has already issued a mandatory order to you, I want to see how long you can resist? β
Shige Patrol wanted to slide her finger to turn off the light screen, but her finger could only poke at the corner of the light screen and couldn't move half a minute.
"Give up, you can't compete with us. I'll be able to meet you in no time. Please prepare a sincere greeting before I arrive. For example, the wreckage of four IJN ships and the like, ahhehehe! β
After the harbor water ghost finished laughing, he turned off the video communication, and without Kii to stop him, it was impossible for the other shipwives to stop the heavy patrol Suhime.
Heavy Cruiser tried her best to suppress the accuracy of the naval guns, but after chasing for more than ten minutes, her main gun still hit the Bird Sea cannon, but fortunately it only bulleted on the deck, and the damage was very light.
There may not be such a lucky thing next time.,Heavy patrol perch-hime's consciousness is gradually becoming unified.,Get rid of the memories of the past.,Completely turned into a deep-sea perch.γ
The Maya was the first to fire at the heavy patrol Suhime, because it was night, and it was unrealistic to expect air support, and they also had the mentality of completing this task alone, and went to sea to pursue without contacting Kii.
THE 20.3CM HEAVY CRUISER CANNON WAS STILL EFFECTIVE AGAINST BATTLESHIP-CLASS DEEP-SEA SHIPS, BUT MAYA HIT THE HEAVY CRUISER THIS TIME, CREATING A CONSPICUOUS RICOCHET. Her main cannon wasn't powerful enough to break through Heavy Patrolman's armor plates.
This is the result that the four ship ladies didn't expect, originally they thought that the heavy patrol changed Qi Ji, but they didn't expect that it was no less than the high-level armor hardness of the moored water ghost.
"Let's retreat." Kitakami sends a retreat to the other three shipmaidens, but Maya and Torikai refuse, unwilling to make Ibuki painfully an enemy. I still want to try it. This time, even Oi rejected Kitakami's suggestion, she obviously had her own considerations, and knew more information than Kitakami and the others.
Sousuke Takayanagi once told her that the Ibuki was equipped with the latest 20.3CM No. 3 serial main gun, and there were also many new equipment for heavy cruisers such as the No. 34 anti-air electric scout and the new torpedo tube. Oi vaguely guessed why the Deep Sea Fleet had gone to such lengths to capture Ibuki, and they had taken a fancy to the new weapons Ibuki was carrying.
"You can't let Ibuki leave, absolutely not." Oi remembers that Sosuke Takayanagi had warned her that specially armed ships were the main targets of the deep-sea fleet's collection of wreckage. At that time, she was also required to destroy the ten torpedo launchers on her ship before she died.
[It's just ten of them.] γ
[For the Deep Sea Fleet, their technology is different from ours, and they can create 20 or 30 Super Mine Cruisers, but they need to unlock the restriction that they cannot equip multiple torpedo tubes. γ
Oi had a hunch that the deep-sea fleet had a well-planned plan for this operation, including an attack on Kii. The enemy's elaborate actions are bound to obtain more important items, and as an adversary, the IJN Combined Fleet cannot allow the plans of the Deep Sea Fleet to succeed. If Kii is unharmed, she'll chase after her, whatever the reason for the Deep Sea Fleet, they're going to take with them a new heavy cruiser to the Ninth Sentai Force.
"Without Kii intervention", the enemy chose the equivalent and best intermediate condition.
The telegram sent from the Kii was delivered to the four ship's mothers, and Kii asked the four to intercept the deep-sea Ibuki as much as possible. A short message, Kitakami and Torikai couldn't understand the deep meaning, but Oi confirmed his guess. Kii must have had a premonition of the intrigues of the Deep Sea Fleet, but with her character, she would only give orders "as much as possible" rather than "must".
Heavy Patrol Suhime's main guns became more and more accurate, and Maya had to choose to retreat from the battle because of multiple hits. Heavy patrol Suhime didn't mean to turn his head in pursuit, but just blindly sailed forward while fighting, and only attacked with the two main guns in the stern of the ship.
"Isn't that simple? Against a hesitant enemy, I alone will be enough! β
Oi let out a wild laugh in the consternation of the crew around her, she has been involved in a war she does not want to fight for a long time, only today her heavy mine-mounted cruiser can play a role, as long as she can avoid the enemy's unstable shelling, the distance between the two ships is compressed from 31KM to 15KM, and as long as the 20-shot torpedoes on one side are effective, any ship will lose the ability to sail.
Oi took the initiative to increase the speed of the engine, and she was able to withstand the pressure of overload for a short time, in order to help Kii, but also to prevent the situation from continuing to deteriorate. Oi's mind is now very clear, clear enough to predict the course of ships and shells in a few seconds. But she didn't know that her eyes had turned bright red.
Before he realized that Oi was about to kill him with one blow, he noticed that the Oi was speeding up, and the two main guns moved in the direction of the Oi, leaving Ibuki's memory, and the cannonballs of the heavy patrol Suhime were empty, and the distance between the two ships was further narrowed.
The Oi's speed had soared to 40 knots, and her turbines were already worn out beyond the limit, and if she continued to accelerate, Oi would not even be able to return. But it was enough for her, dodging another round of artillery fire, and Oi continued to sail despite the dissuasion of the crew. Her speed far exceeded the 32 knots of the Heavy Patrol Habitat Hime.
When the heavy patrol suki fired at Oi for the third time, the two ships were so close that Oi could clearly see the struggling heavy patrol suhime on the stern deck.
But this time the Oi was hit by the ship's guns, and an armor-piercing shell hit the port side of the Ojing, but fortunately only one of the side anti-aircraft guns was damaged, and several crew members were killed.
"Let you be free from your pain! Starboard torpedo tubes ready! β
Oi steered his hull, reversed course slightly, and prepared himself for torpedo launch. After the crew finished loading the torpedo, the Oi also entered the optimal launch position. The two ships are 12.6KM apart, Oi clearly observes and focuses on patrolling every part of the armament, and is in awe of this perch after the deep sea, from the perspective of equipment, it has completely reached the level of a battleship, and many of the armed weapons she Oi can't recognize.
But none of this matters, these advanced carrier-based armaments will be destroyed in a few minutes.
"Type 93 acid torpedo, 20 consecutive !!"
The only thing that can protect Shige Saihime is the low-probability event that "a torpedo may also be protected", and Oi pursues the torpedo launched at the risk of being sunk, and the mass-produced ship that can only sweep the deep sea in the past has never officially come in handy.
The torpedoes, which had no waterline, cut diagonally towards the heavy patrol Suhime one by one, and under Oi's accurate prediction, the bow of the heavy patrol Suhime soon sounded an explosion. Immediately followed by more, more...... All hit the target.
Heavy Cruiser Suhime's left side armor was blown apart, and the entire hull tilted to the right. Her armor can block the explosion of one or two torpedoes, and a row of 20 torpedoes cannot withstand with her armor.
In an instant's pain, Heavy Patrol Suhime fell to his deck in vain, and rolled to the guardrail with the tilted hull. Freedom from the enemy's controls, she can finally control her new hull of her own will......
Without sealing the water compartment or activating the ship's repair equipment, Shige Patrol Suhime propped herself up with the snake's head at her waist and staggered to her feet, as she noticed the light in front of her.
In the light, she seemed to see the former Admiral again-Dafeng, no, Shenming Autumn Crane.
"Did you come to pick me up? Great, I'm willing to keep following you. β
Shige Patrol Suhime stretched out her hand stained with black blood, trying to grasp the figure in the light, and her life came to an end at this momentβa peaceful death in a dream.
The body tumbled into the sea, the left side of the hull exploded in succession, and the mighty Heavy Patrol Suhime was ended by Oi with 20 torpedoes.
At the same time as the core of the hull was shattered, the entire hull was completely broken, and it continued to sink in the fire. The body of the heavy patrol who fell into the water soon overflowed from the wound with a thick resentment, not all from herself, but more from the expulsion of the water ghost poured on her body to activate the liquid when she was deep into the sea.
It decomposes and dissipates, and all that remains is an old pocket watch, a relic that Ibuki (Kanda Yoshiko) once entrusted to Taiho (Fukatsuru Akizuru) to hand over and quietly sink to the bottom of the sea.
"It worked!" Kitami didn't expect Oi to have such a fierce side, a single ship charged and put torpedoes in the face, and replaced it with other deep-sea ships, and it was likely that Oi would be sunk.
ββ¦β¦ Actually ruined my plans! β
A deep-sea roost revealed her full picture from the night, and the harbor water ghost never expected that in just a few hours, her carefully planned plan would be ruined, and it was not Kii, but just a light cruiser.
When Oi noticed the deep-sea fleet that appeared not far away, it was already too late, and she was driving at high speed, and she was too far away from the north, and it was too late to turn.
The harbor water ghost saved some face with the fire of the guns of the γΏ and γ«-class battleships, and the Ojing, which destroyed her plan, was blown to pieces on the spot, and the other three ships were damaged and retreated.
