Laizhou Bay!

More than a dozen large warships were cruising idlely, and from time to time they had to fire a cannon into the distance, although they could not hit people, but at least they could scare and scare those pigs.

It is said that the anti-China sentiment within the navy is the strongest, and whoever allows the navy to be overshadowed by the East China Navy's submarine, if the anti-Chinese sentiment does not rise, it will be called an accident.

The same is true in China, where anti-China sentiment is rising day by day, and the people of this country generally support the war against the East China Army, and many people in this country shout the slogan of defeating China, and in response to the war launched by the political axe, they have purchased war bonds issued by the political axe to provide assistance to the army.

The soldiers on the ship looked at the distance and laughed, and at the same time glanced at the sea from time to time, revealing a trace of fear in their eyes.

No one knows when those submarines will come out, they are no strangers to submarines, and they also have submarines in this navy, which are Lu-class submarines, which are relatively backward.

Some of the sailors have even gone insane because of this, and no less than a dozen have been sent back to the local psychiatric hospitals for recuperation.

In the past few days, some sailors have seen the shadow of the submarine, which has put the Third Fleet in a state of extreme mental tension.

At about 1:10 p.m. on the 9th, the sailors who were watching the water from time to time suddenly heard a faint roar in their ears, which made many people feel confused.

…… At Shahe Airport, one bomber after another flew into the sky from running to the top, forming a huge bomber formation and speeding towards Laizhou Bay.

As deputy commander of the Air Force, Zheng Chengtao personally went into battle this time and flew a Mighty Eagle 3 reconnaissance plane to the front.

Laizhou Bay is very close to Shahe Town and production, only about 15 kilometers, such a short distance, it can be reached in less than ten minutes, and the huge bomber formation is divided into five waves to take off.

In addition to the bombers, there are more than 30 Eagle 3 reconnaissance planes, which also have the ability of fighters to fight in the air, and their main task is to track the warships when they are escaping and guide the targets for the bombers that take off for the second time.

Five waves of bombers, each with hundreds of planes, roared toward the Third Fleet of the Chinese Army in Laizhou Bay.

The Third Fleet of the Yue Army in Laizhou Bay was not aware of the danger at all, and although it had been bombed, the Weifang Army had been completely annihilated, and Yu Ben still did not know much about the concept of bombing.

The navy had no experience in dealing with bombing, and when they heard the roar of engines in their ears, they did not quite know that danger was approaching rapidly.

"That's a lot of planes!" A sailor stood on the deck, looked at a group of black dots flying in the distance, and let out an exclamation.

The first wave of bombers flew not far from the Third Fleet and began to slow down.

The Eagle 3 reconnaissance plane piloted by Zheng Chengtao suddenly dived and rushed down towards the Third Fleet below, and Zheng Chengtao saw the largest battleship on the sea at first sight, and immediately controlled the plane to fly over the Fusang, and then pulled it up.

The sailors on the Fuso were a little confused.

However, Zheng Chengtao had just finished this move, and the bomber formation circling in the sky collectively dived downward, and the dive angle was not very large, after all, these bombers were not professional dive bombers.

The flight altitude of the bomber formation was directly lowered from a thousand meters to a height of more than 100 meters, and then rushed towards the Fuso.

It is dangerous to fly at a low altitude on the sea, and it is easy to get planted in the sea without a single negligence, but with warships on the sea as a reference, this situation is basically impossible to happen.

A large group of planes swooped down, and the captain of the Fuso finally realized that something was wrong, but before the Fuso could move, a bomber had already flown over the head of the Fuso, and a 533mm torpedo bare bomb was dropped from the plane.

This torpedo is right on the bridge!

With a loud bang, a small black-red mushroom cloud appeared on the bridge of the Fuso, black was smoke, red was fire.

The entire bridge was blown up beyond recognition, and the commander of the army inside was killed on the spot.

This was followed by the indiscriminate bombing of the follow-up bombers.

The bombers were divided into groups of ten, and one bomber formation was a group of ten.

The first group flew over the head of the Fuso, and torpedoes and heavy aerial bombs rained down on the Fuso, and although many of them were thrown into the sea, many torpedoes and heavy aerial bombs still hit the Fuso.

The Fusang soon turned into a sea of fire, Zheng Chengtao watched from a distance, and ordered with a walkie-talkie: "Team 02 continues to bomb the target, and the other teams are free to choose the target to bomb." ”

The bombing effect was unexpected, and it was obviously not cost-effective to bomb a warship with ten squads.

The Fuso was completely in disarray, the deck, bridge, and turret were all shot, and they were blown to pieces, and the entire warship immediately lost its command.

The Fuso can't run anymore!

Squad 02 followed, and the torpedoes and blockbuster lists were thrown on the Fuso, which was again hit by a dozen large and small bombs and a torpedo.

The entire ship was in flames and stood motionless on the sea.

The other warships were horrified, and only then did they realize the danger coming, and they all turned around under the captain's order, trying to escape from Laizhou Bay.

03~10 squads of 80 bombers began to pounce on their chosen targets.

Before they took off, they had already made it very clear that they were attacking all the warships that could move in Laizhou Bay, and at the same time they were mainly focusing on those large warships.

Torpedoes and aerial bombs continued to be dropped, and the Third Fleet suffered a heavy blow.

In particular, the heavy cruiser Hiei, whose tonnage was no less than that of the Fuso, was taken care of by three bombing squads, and more than a dozen heavy bombs were hit on the deck, and some of the heavy bombs even fell into the interior of the Hiei and exploded. At the same time, a torpedo was hit on the turret of the Hiei.

Just as the Hiei was desperate to escape, suddenly a white wave appeared on the sea.

"Torpedoes, it's torpedoes." A sailor shouted in horror as he looked at the waves.

"Avoid, evade."

The second officer of the "left rudder ......" was about to give the order to turn the rudder to evade, when he immediately heard a loud '......boom', and the entire warship began to shake violently.

The torpedo fired from the submarine hit the rudder of the Hiei, where the Hiei was paralyzed on the spot.

As soon as the Hiei was paralyzed, there were no more bombers to take care of them.

Instead, the target was the fleeing warships.

At the same time, submarines hiding under the water launched a series of attacks, firing torpedoes at their respective targets.

The bombers who had finished dropping their bombs did not miss the 'beautiful scenery' of the scene, but hurried back to reload. And the second wave of bombing formations also arrived.

As soon as the second wave of bombers arrived, Zheng Chengtao, who was hovering in the sky with a reconnaissance plane, immediately ordered them to hunt down and kill the fleeing warships.

After the bombing of the first wave of bomber formations, remarkable results have already been achieved.

The Fuso and Hiei were paralyzed in place, and the hull of the Fuso had begun to tilt slightly, apparently flooded, and it was only a matter of time before it sank.

At the same time, the Matsushima was bombarded by a bomber squad, and the hull had begun to sink rapidly, and the Chiyoda was hit by a heavy bomb at the ammunition depot, causing a violent explosion that shattered the entire hull.

The Maya and Uji warships were damaged to varying degrees due to the bombing, and their speed had dropped by half, of which the Maya was in slightly better condition and could sail at a speed of about 10 knots, while the speed of the Uji was extremely miserable, and the speed dropped to 6 knots, which was simply a turtle speed.

When the second wave of bombers arrived, they immediately plunged into the bombing and pursued the Suma, Akitsusu, Takao, Chikushi, and Tokai, which were the fastest to escape.

Each of the five warships was illuminated by two bomber squads.

The warships could not outrun the planes at all, and in a short time they were overtaken by the speeding bombers, who were greeted by heavy bombs and torpedoes.

However, these five warships are moving at full speed, so the hit rate of the planes is greatly affected, so that the hit rate is reduced to one-fifth, but the planes of the East China Air Force are land planes, the bomb load is very terrifying, and the number of bombers is too large.

Although the hit rate was relatively low, these five warships were hit one after another and caught fire, and they immediately became conspicuous targets for bombing.

Even without the guidance of these black smokes, every warship is followed by a reconnaissance plane, not only these large warships, but also a reconnaissance plane behind the destroyers of the army.

These reconnaissance aircraft are calling bomber formations!

The third, fourth, and fifth waves of bomber formations arrived one after another within 10 minutes, and under the guidance of these reconnaissance planes, they began to spare their energies to hunt down the destroyers.

These destroyers were faster than the larger warships, and their targets were smaller, allowing them to easily evade the bombardment, but most of the submarines were waiting in the escape routes of the Japanese army.

As soon as it came into attack range, the torpedo immediately beckoned over.

Bombers and submarines began to encircle and intercept these destroyers and torpedo boats.

If those small torpedo boats are hit by heavy bombs or torpedoes, basically the entire torpedo boat will be blown to pieces.

The destroyer is slightly better, but as soon as it hits, it is basically equivalent to sinking to the bottom of the sea.

The warships that were blindly fleeing were not in the mood to attack the submarines underwater, but the five warships had been bombed by the planes that arrived later, and they were either sunk or paralyzed in place.

In the face of the overwhelming number of bombers, some commanders on the warships began to order the sailors to sink the warships by themselves to prevent them from falling into the hands of the enemy.

The Fuso and Hiei sank into the sea shortly afterward, but the two warships sank closer to the coastline and could have been salvaged, but it is unknown whether they could be repaired.

Just the first take-off bombing, 500 planes killed all the main warships of the Third Fleet, after all, this is the terrifying scale of 500 bombers, if it is replaced by an aircraft carrier, at least 10 aircraft carriers must be loaded with these large planes, after all, these planes are much larger than the small planes on the aircraft carrier.

The first planes to return soon flew back half an hour later, and the second bombing began......
