Chapter 117: Raid
"Estimate the bearing, launch a nuclear anti-submarine missile, two bursts of fire!"
In the continuous loud noise, the captain of the Ticonderoga roared like crazy, and suddenly became blind, it is estimated that few people will be able to keep calm, at this time there are no restrictions to consider, what he needs is to ensure the safety of himself and the battleship.
He had a total of four nuclear-deep bombed Aslock on this cruiser.
The sailors who were as panicked as him immediately went into action, and then the Asroc jet flame on the bow launcher flew out, and in the blink of an eye, a second missile appeared on the launcher, two anti-submarine missiles according to the set trajectory, less than seven kilometers on the port side of the Ticonderoga, and two 10,000-ton yield nuclear depth bombs separated from the booster under the timer control, and fell to the sea at an interval of three kilometers with parachutes.
"Turn around!" Nearly 10,000 kilometers away, Wang Yue subconsciously shouted, and under the reflection of the lightning that pierced the night sky, the eyes of the swordfish that were attacking close to the sea were transmitted back to his brain.
You don't have to think about it to know what it is.
The five swordfish jumped out of the water almost at the same time, and the moment they fell back to the surface, they turned back on the spot and fled frantically at a high speed of nearly two hundred knots.
Four kilometers behind them, two nuclear depth bombs fell into the water, separated from the parachute at the same time, and slowly fell in the dark seawater, and after more than ten seconds, as if two underwater volcanoes erupted at the same time, the two fiery red shadows instantly expanded, brighter and bigger, and then two pitch-black semicircular islands rose in the stormy waves of the sea, and then exploded with an earth-shattering loud sound. The shock wave of the sea water submerged the original wave like a tsunami, and pushed outward in two regular circles.
"Shock-proof!" The captain of the Ticonderoga screamed, and the sailors scrambled for something to secure themselves.
Also in need of impact protection is Wang Yue.
Not those swordfish. Rather, it is the gun shrimp hiding under this cruiser.
Seeing the fury of the explosion push over like a wall, the five spear shrimp jumped to the port side of the Ticonderoga the moment they arrived, and then jumped out of the water together.
In the tyrannical raging waves, this 10,000-ton giant ship was not much stronger than a small fishing boat, and the powerful impact force pushed it to the right with the splashing waves, but fortunately, this time there was not a terrifying tentacle stretched out below. With its own balancing system, the Ticonderoga quickly flattened after the raging seas.
"Check the loss!" The captain yelled as he clutched his smashed head.
"The enemy is coming again!" Almost simultaneously, the sonar officer screamed.
The five spear shrimp were too small because they were too small, although precautions were taken. But it was still rushed out of more than 200 meters, and before it could be rushed back, the sonar temporarily returned to normal, and five eye-catching light spots on the screen rushed over at high speed again.
"Nuclear anti-submarine missile launches! Two shots in a row! The captain roared like crazy. The last two nuclear anti-submarine missiles flew out at once. Fly to the target according to the azimuth detected by sonar.
Seeing the background of the night, the moment two high-speed light spots suddenly appeared, the five swordfish jumped out of the water again without hesitation, and then turned around and evacuated at high speed.
Asroc, which can fly twenty-two kilometers per minute, reaches the predetermined area in close to fifteen seconds, and then the nuclear depth bomb falls with a parachute and slowly sinks in the sea water, and at this time. Their target is already almost two kilometers away.
A second round of explosions followed.
The result did not make any sense, when the impact of the explosion was pushed. Five swordfish are more than three kilometers away from the explosion point, and such a distance of 10,000 tons of equivalent lethality is definitely not enough, and 20,000 tons is about the same.
The fury of the explosion quickly passed.
"Help, call for help from the flagship immediately!" Looking at the five points of light on the sonar screen, the captain said with a pale face.
He was scared, these monsters are too fast, and the trajectory of the missile's flight in the night sky is the best warning, if it is during the day, it may be able to receive better results, but at night it can be said that as long as the missile is in the air, the enemy can see it with his eyes on the sea, but he does not dare to put the enemy too close, although the 10,000-ton equivalent explosion is said to be able to kill and injure a battleship within two kilometers at most, but he is not interested in setting the explosion point to this distance to experience it, five kilometers he is careful and his liver is pounding.
"Deepfire ready, and now we're going to have to face the enemy." Then he added to the first mate.
He does not have nuclear anti-submarine missiles anymore, and the Aslock with an ordinary sound-guided torpedo warhead is pointless against such an enemy, and the only thing that can really protect this battleship is the additional rocket depth launcher.
He didn't know that Wang Yue was also rejoicing at this time, if this guy was bold enough to close the distance to less than five kilometers before launching a nuclear anti-submarine missile, at this time Wang Yue's first wave of attack force should be exhausted, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured. Of course, there is nothing to do with this kind of thing, after all, Boss Wang is tens of thousands of kilometers away, and he will not face nuclear deep bombs at close range, and under the shadow of decades of murderous reputation, no one dares to detonate one nuclear depth bomb after another at such a close distance.
Twenty kilometers away from the Ticonderoga, five swordfish were ready to go, and underneath the battleship, five spearfish quietly returned to their positions, because of the ensuing danger, those American imperialist naval officers and sailors still had no time to take care of them.
However, the captain of the Ticonderoga asked for reinforcements, but was rejected by Rear Admiral Thomas, who could provide him with reinforcements, only the Nassau as the flagship, Rear Admiral Thomas did not know how many enemies were still hidden under the dark sea around him, except for the Nassau, which was originally designed to be a backup to the Ticonderoga, none of the other ships dared to leave their positions.
After understanding their situation, hundreds of US imperialist sailors rushed out of the cabin and rushed to a series of deep bombs and rocket launchers in some panic, and on this cruiser, a total of four deep bombs and 12 groups of rocket depth bomb launchers were installed, which could project terrifying firepower within two kilometers of the surrounding area in a very short time.
The sailors stood behind their weapons, trembling at the dark sea in the lightning and thunder, the raging waves crashing under their feet, their hearts trembling with the shaking of the battleship, and many of these pampered young men could not stand the terrible pressure and cried.
The captain smiled helplessly.
In the minds of politicians in Washington, they are actually cannon fodder, the elite of the navy are on those capital ships, and like warships, excellent talents also need to be avoided as much as possible, and those sent to perform the most dangerous tasks are cannon fodder.
Fortunately, two kilometers away on the starboard side, a striking light gave the sailors some comfort, it was the Nassau, which was approaching them at full speed.
"The enemy is ten kilometers away!" The sonar's screams rang out.
"Launch anti-submarine missiles, and keep firing them until they run out!" The captain yelled.
The Nassau did not provide him with real help, the modified version of the anti-submarine ship did not have nuclear anti-submarine missiles on board, in fact there were only three cruisers and four frigates in the entire fleet with twenty-eight nuclear anti-submarine missiles on board. There are no new products in this thing, they are all turned out of the mothballed arsenal and reactivated, it has not been used for twenty or thirty years, plus the previous dismantling, the total number is not much, it must first meet the capital ship and nuclear submarine, it is very good that they can get twenty-eight pieces of cannon fodder.
This is also related to their task, which is nothing more than to show the younger brothers that the US imperialism is responsible for them, to put it bluntly, it is a show, since it is a show, of course, it can be saved.
On the double cantilever launcher at the end of the Ticonderoga, the anti-submarine missiles were frantically sprayed outward at a speed of less than two seconds, and no matter whether the warhead was a torpedo or a deep bomb, all of them smashed into the enemy approaching at high speed, and one after another flames pierced the night sky, but they did not know that their crazy rate of fire exposed themselves instead.
"There are no more nuclear anti-submarine missiles!" Wang Yue couldn't help but sneer.
The five Swordfish easily lowered their heads and plunged into the water hundreds of meters deep, and at the sound of those anti-submarine missile warheads falling into the water, they rushed diagonally from the bottom to the Ticonderoga upwards without hesitation.
"The enemy is five kilometers away, the enemy is four kilometers away..."The sonar in the command room of the Ticonderoga kept reporting the location of the attacker, and it was not until he shouted out the distance of three kilometers that the captain gave the order: "The rocket depth bomb is ready for launch." ”
The six-seat six-seat rocket depth launcher on the port side immediately began to aim at the direction of the attack, and according to the coordinates provided by the sonar, it was ready to shoot an interception barrage on the attacker's attack route.
But at this moment, a strange loud noise, which had been almost forgotten, suddenly came from under their feet, and not only the Ticonderoga, but the entire fleet, including the Nassau and the other two cruisers, all the battleships that could provide it with sonar numbers, the same sound sounded at the same time like a chorus at this moment, and the whole fleet became completely blind.
"Fire, fire now!" The captain roared with grief.
Rockets and artillery shells, and even anti-submarine missiles that had not yet been fired, including those on the Nassau, all the fire was smashed on the sea with a range of two kilometers on the port side.
The exploding columns of water kept rising one after another, and the hand-to-hand combat instantly brought the battle into a white heat, and Wang Yue knew very well that there was not much window left for his attack, once the Nassau turned around, its dense array of deep bomb launchers on the flight deck would destroy any enemy that came close to within two kilometers.
The five swordfish braved the fire that kept exploding above their heads, and rushed towards their target like crazy, and just as one swordfish was shattered by the pressure of the explosion, the remaining four leaped out of the sea almost at the same time, and with a fierce flick of the head, four tentacle mines smashed into the Ticonderoga with a whistle that broke through the air.
