Chapter 60: The Sinking of the World's Strongest Warship
The two sides are five kilometers apart.
King Sejong, the Chungmu Gong Yi Sun-sin, the trailing Choi Ying, and the three destroyers lined up in battle line with American-made 127-mm guns fired at the same time.
At the same time, among the three anti-submarine torpedo tubes of each ship, one after another Blue Shark light anti-submarine torpedoes produced by sticks flew out one after another, and crashed head-on into the silver shadow that was rushing towards it at a speed of 45 knots under water.
Boss Wang also saw the three destroyers in the distance at this time, and he immediately recognized the number one star-class battleship of the stick, although he didn't know which one it was, but King Sejong was already undoubted, such a warship was suitable for himself to use for Liwei, if it was sunk, the stick would definitely be like a mourning in the country, as soon as he thought of this, his heart was full of comfort.
And the sudden fire in the distance, but he instantly sobered up, it is definitely not possible on the water, at this time the naval guns are fully automated, both accuracy and rate of fire are very terrifying, before the shells fly, the silver shadow that was originally swimming against the water surface plunged into the water twenty meters deep water, and then immediately after the shells arrived, the piercing bombs drilled into the water one by one and exploded, and the exploding water column kept rising on the sea surface.
Of course, such an attack is definitely meaningless, but for Boss Wang, another trouble must be careful, three Super Bobcat helicopters appeared above it again with a slightly faster speed than Silver Shadow, while the other three had already taken off, and the six Super Bobcats were squeezed in two straight lines in front of the three in the back.
The threat of this kind of thing had to be considered, and the silver shadow, who had originally taken the King Sejong directly, turned around on the spot again, and before the helicopter could complete the encirclement, he instantly sprinted to the left at a speed of 200 knots to get out of its attack range and then directly took the Cui Ying at the rear. When they were less than three kilometers apart, the anti-submarine torpedoes launched on the Cui Ying were head-on, and the silver shadow cut outward again, and the three blue shark torpedoes coming side by side turned and followed under the action of the active sonar seeker.
But Silver Shadow turned around again and pounced on Cui Ying.
The captain on the Cui Ying was about to cry, and the 127mm main gun was even more frantically firing, hitting a column of water in front of the Silver Shadow attack route, but this was just talking about himself, everyone understood that the piercing bomb was of little practical use to the underwater target, and at the same time as the fire was blocked, His Excellency the captain desperately called for help to Yin Zhengxiang, and even simply bypassed him to call his carrier-based aircraft back to rescue.
The two Super Bobcats had returned, but by this time Silver Shadow had already arrived.
The capital ships of the sticks are very fashionable, so fashionable that there are no deep bomb launchers, and in their opinion, it is simply a shame for this backward weapon to appear on their beautiful battleships, so King Sejong class, Chungmu Gong Yi Sunsin class, and then Gwanggaetu King class all have no rocket deep bombs, and now the officers and men of the stick navy on the Choi Ying are looking at the underwater shadows that are rushing towards them faster than a torpedo and are directly blinded.
Although the 127-mm guns and the 30-mm rapid-fire guns of the Goalkeeper Close-Quarters system were all firing at the surface of the sea like crazy, they did not provide them with any substantial protection.
But they didn't know that Boss Wang was not ready to hit them at all.
There are three torpedoes in the back, why let the silver shadow collide with it, just at the moment when the titanium alloy cone in front of it hit the bottom of the 4,000-ton destroyer, the silver shadow suddenly lowered its head, and the forty-meter-long body grazed the bottom of the ship and drilled over, and the sound waves emitted by the three blue shark torpedo seekers that followed all hit the huge body of Cui Ying, and then one after another all hit the keel of the destroyer that launched him, and then the exploding fire instantly expanded one after another.
Looking at the three water columns rising under the waterline of Cui Ying, Yin Zhengxiang's cold sweat broke out, he knew that his career was over, and he would just roll up and go back to his hometown after he went back, of course, if he could go back.
Three torpedoes with a charge of more than 40 kilograms exploded at the keel position of the Cui Ying, and the fate of this destroyer is no longer in much suspense, even if this is a light torpedo for anti-submarine use, it will be fatal for a destroyer with a standard displacement of more than 4,000 tons.
And the culprit did not hesitate to pounce on King Sejong again from the other side.
Yin Zhengxiang didn't dare to launch a torpedo anymore, the result of launching a torpedo at such a distance would not be any different from Cui Ying, of course, even if he launched it, it was useless, this monster was too fast, and the torpedo had lost its effect on it, and it was estimated that there were no underwater weapons that could catch up with it except for the Lucian blizzard, and now it could only rely on carrier-based aircraft.
Including the two that rescued Cui Ying, the six Super Bobcats squeezed towards Silver Shadow again, and in order to ensure that the hateful monster did not have time to react, these helicopters even descended to a height of less than ten meters above the sea, although the latter had already drilled into deep water, but according to the information transmitted by the number of chains, they were still able to accurately lock on to the target location.
However, they forgot one thing, it takes time for the depth charge to fall into the water and then reach the set explosion depth, the minimum depth of this thing is generally thirty meters, and under the action of sea buoyancy, it takes dozens of seconds to fall from the sea surface to this depth, which is enough for the silver shadow with an instantaneous burst speed of two hundred knots to jump out of a kilometer, and the silver shadow that has already dived to a depth of more than 100 meters is staring at the top of his head at this time, and at the moment when the depth charge falls on the sea surface, it immediately jumps out and crosses the defense line of the stick carrier-based aircraft.
But instead of striking the King Sejong, which was already not far away, it stopped underwater again, and behind it was the flames of the explosion of depth charges, but because of the distance, it could not do any harm.
On the Super Lynx that failed to attack, they quickly knew the new location of the target after escaping, and six helicopters flew over immediately, or the same situation, they dropped bombs, and the silver shadow jumped out at the moment when the deep bomb fell into the water, if they didn't drop the bomb, then the silver shadow approached King Sejong at the most usual speed of fifty knots, so after a few tosses, the deep bomb on the Super Lynx ran out, and a helicopter couldn't bring a few, how could it withstand this use.
After calculating the total number of deep bullets that fell and determining that it was impossible for the other party to have any more deep bullets, Boss Wang confidently and boldly accelerated to one hundred and fifty knots, and crashed straight into the starboard side of King Sejong like a cannonball, and the titanium alloy cone pierced into the waterline of the nine-thousand-ton giant ship like a piece of tofu.
"Quick, check the loss!" The obvious impact from under his feet made Yin Zhengxiang's face change drastically, and he roared like a heartbreak.
And at this moment, the silver shadow under the waterline shook violently, and the titanium alloy cone was easily pulled out, but under the waterline of King Sejong, there was a circular hole with a diameter of nearly one meter, and the sea water instantly poured in.
After a successful blow, it then turned around and distanced itself, and then launched a second attack without hesitation.
Taking advantage of the fact that the six Super Bobcats lined up to land on the two warships, waiting for the opportunity to reload the depth charges, Wang Yue commanded the silver shadow to attack again and again like crazy, constantly creating one hole after another under the starboard waterline of King Sejong, and by the time the first Super Bobcat that had completed the loading took off, there were already sixteen large holes on the starboard side of the destroyer with a diameter of nearly one meter and a depth of more than three meters.
Under the huge pressure of more than 9,000 tons, the sea water rushed into the right side of the ship like a mountain torrent that burst the embankment, and at this time, any watertight design and any damage management ability were in vain, and the large influx of sea water made the pride of the stick navy tilt sharply to the right without any suspense, and even a helicopter that was loading bombs slid down towards the sea.
Looking at the officers and men of the Navy who escaped from the cabin in a panic on the King Sejong, Boss Wang nodded with satisfaction, and then made the silver shadow jump directly out of the sea like a demonstration, and in a frightened gaze, with the splashing waves to the east at the fastest speed, towards the deep sea outside the first island chain.
Ten minutes after it left, the Orion anti-submarine aircraft of the stick arrived, but at this time, both King Sejong and Choi Ying had lost hope of saving, especially the latter, which had even capsized on the sea.
In the end, the world's strongest warship, which they boasted of, sank an hour later, sinking on the trail of dragging, less than five kilometers away from Seogwipo, and countless sticks watched as Wang Yue expected, watching how the treasure of their country sank like a mourning examination.
The news that the Atlantean reinforcements sank the two capital ships of the Stick Navy in World War I immediately shocked the world, and countless people watched the TV with dumbfounded images of the sinking of King Sejong, and of course, what shocked the world even more was the location of this battle, within the first island chain.
Less than half an hour after the fighting, all the domestic merchant ships in all ports of Japan and Bangzi were suspended and suspended indefinitely.
"Please rest assured, this is a war between us and the United States, Japan, and the three countries, and has nothing to do with any other countries, whether it is Chinese or Lucia merchant ships, or even European merchant ships, please rest assured that they sail on any route, the Atlanteans attack enemies rather than friends, even if you are sailing to these countries, but there is one thing that needs to be reminded of you, except for oil tankers, because their war against us must rely on oil support."
An hour later, in the Haizhou Divine Beast Palace, His Excellency the Divine Beast solemnly promised the reporters from various countries who were interviewing it for this purpose.
