The first school shot of the Sky Wolf Battle Patrol after the turn actually fired such an accurate shot, which really made Liu Hetu can't help but shoot the case, and the shooting command room is even more like a doping, after the battleship turns, although the distance between the two sides and the change rate of direction will change directly, but the shell fired by the main gun on the left side of the bow just now has obviously become a straddle shot at the enemy ship.

"Shooting parameters of the left gun position of Block A, the right gun of Block ABC lowers the elevation angle by 2 scales, half a salvo! Ready to launch! "To destroy the enemy with the most efficient strikes, the commander of the shooting of the Sirius was Wu Tiexin, a shooting officer from the former destroyer Nanjing, a new generation of soldiers who grew up in the naval battles between China and Russia, and naturally understood the laws of war.

Just when there was a panic on the battleship Massachusetts, the Sky Wolf Battle Patrol fired a round and a half salvo, which was less than 7 seconds before the main mast of the Massachusetts collapsed, and the gunfire that rushed into the sky immediately made Colonel Poulson's heartbeat accelerate sharply, and except for a few wounded soldiers on the battleship who were still screaming heartbreakingly, everyone else was staring at the sky in front of them in a daze, as if there was the sound of God's judgment.

Wu Tiexin had also gotten up at this time and left the main control position of the storm fire control platform, grabbed a pair of high-powered binoculars and looked into the distance, and saw that as an excellent shooting commander, he naturally understood that the school shot that he had turned to before was a great accident, but it also fully reflected the achievements of the Chinese Navy in artillery today.

Although only one side of the three main guns is used in each round of calibration, the fire control system has brought about an unprecedented revolution in the art of firing command, and the calculation clock also provides the most realistic reference for firing command. The three main guns are highly efficient and can complete the verification of three sets of firing parameters in less than 10 seconds.

The next 3 main gun on the right side of the main turret will complete the verification of the other 3 sets of corrected firing parameters...... In fact. The ultimate pursuit of naval gunnery. It is to have a main gun of the same caliber with the highest rate of fire, and this qiē is obviously the realization of the most advanced artillery fire control platform in China.

3…… 2…… 1……

In the countdown of Wu Tiexin's silent thoughts, a column of water soared from behind the starboard side of the battleship Massachusetts in the distance, and just 3 seconds later, another column of water appeared about 200 meters on the starboard side of the opponent, and the next shot really made everyone on the battleship Massachusetts break out in a cold sweat.

The third school projectile. It rumbled less than 40 meters into the bow of the battleship Massachusetts, and the huge waves that rushed into the sky crashed into the bronze statue of the bow of the battleship in a matter of seconds.

Up to now, the commander of the battleship Massachusetts, Colonel Polson, has no doubt that the battleship under his command has fallen into the range of the opponent's fearful artillery fire at a range of more than 9,000 meters that he is completely out of control, although he cannot understand how the Chinese did it, but it does not mean that he is willing to continue to be brave as a live target.

"Command the bilge to pressurize and ventilate, turn the rudder 30 degrees to the left, and accelerate to a tactical maneuver! We are close to the flagship! All guns fired to starboard! Colonel Poulson did not hesitate to make a decisive decision and gave the order to fire on the starboard side. Naturally, he did not hope to hit his opponent, but had to make full use of the smoke created by the shelling to distract his opponent.

"Enemy ships turn rudders...... The direction is about 30 degrees. Speed 14.5 knots! "The observer officer immediately reported aloud the movements of the battleship Massachusetts, maneuvering at a large angle, and undoubtedly requiring a quick parameter revision or a recalibration.

Wu Tiexin was still holding the telescope at the moment, looking from his position, the American battleship was rapidly deflecting the course, billowing black smoke gushing out from the opponent's two huge chimneys, it was obvious that the other party had been frightened by the few school projectiles just now, and was desperately trying to survive, for this kind of low-freeboard battleship, not to mention a 30-degree steering maneuver, it was a 15-degree maneuver, and the deflection of the battleship's hull and the waves on the side side were enough to make all the guns lose the possibility of combat.

However, his gaze crossed the bulky battleship Massachusetts and saw the strange American-made second-class battleship USS Texas, which was following 4 chains away at the moment, and at this moment this battleship was also being heavily shelled from the Tiankui battle cruiser, however, it seemed that the Texas had a little trick in addition to luck.

The main and secondary guns on the battleship are constantly firing, but where the target is, it is estimated that only the gunner who fired the gun can figure it out! However, the result was good, at least the Tiankui Battle Patrol carried out 9 rounds of school shooting in a row, but it was able to achieve the effect of close misses or pinch-shots.

However, it looks like the fortune of the second class battleship of the Texas is about to run out, because the battleship Massachusetts in the bow of the right flank fleet has made a move that affects the entire fleet between life and death - a large angle turn, and the Texas will also sail to the position where the battleship Massachusetts turned just now in a few minutes, and then follow the lead ship to turn!

Do you continue to shell the Massachusetts, or make a new decision!

"Maintain the firing parameters, the left gun of the A gun position shoots a single shot! Adjust the target to the USS Texas! Wu Tiexin put down the binoculars and gave the order without hesitation.

Vice Admiral Sampson stood in the command tower of the battleship USS Iowa and witnessed the thrilling scene of the battleship Massachusetts being hit by the main mast of the opponent's heavy artillery fire at a distance of nearly 10,000 meters.

He also immediately realized that his order to assemble the fleet was probably not accepted by the right flank fleet, and what made him even more uneasy was obviously his incomprehension of the Chinese fleet's miraculous artillery skills, his own side followed the pursuit and fired more than 200 shells, none of them hit, and even rarely missed, and the other side actually played such accurate artillery skills in the second round of artillery fire.

Luck...... Or terrible artillery!

Colonel Poulson's timely tactical maneuver allowed him to see the fruits of the U.S. Navy's persistent training, and considering the outcome he feared, he had to abandon the assembly order he had just issued and readjust the combat order instead. "Turn the rudder 10 degrees to the right. Approaching the right flank fleet. Switching to 17 formations, we must put enough pressure on the Chinese! ”

After the new combat order was issued, Brigadier General Sampson, although he was a little unsure, he had done his best, and in his opinion, although the Chinese may have very good artillery skills, as long as they pulled up the battle line, they had a huge advantage of 10 to 2. Even if the artillery skills are amazing, and the difference in the hit rate between the two sides is several times, you can still use the numerical advantage to redeem it!

The Chinese cannot have such a big advantage! And his own tactics will also give Chinese a taste of the threat of the artillery of the American giant ship, and even if Chinese can get a hit, the American fleet can still return the color...... So, in the end, both sides will get out of the fight after sunset!

"General, the Chinese battleships are approaching the right flank fleet, and we have observed that the two battleships are accelerating, and their speed is already more than 18 knots. And it's still accelerating! A few minutes later, the lookout officer ran in with a nervous look. A very deadly message was reported to Sampson.

This news immediately made Sampson feel absolutely shocked, the two sides are chasing me to catch up until now, the U.S. fleet has been hindered by the speed of the entire battle line, has been maintained at a speed of less than 13 knots, only when preparing to maneuver before, the battleship Iowa made a temporary acceleration, and the battleship Iowa is indeed capable of running at a speed of nearly 18 knots...... But that's already the top speed!

And the other side's two battleships, which were significantly more tonnage than Iowa and firepower stronger than Iowa, were able to quickly increase their speed to more than 18 knots, what did this mean, as the commander of the battleship, he obviously knew very well...... If the opponent tries to break away, it is impossible for the other side to complete the pursuit from behind...... And before the other party let the American fleet follow, there is a huge conspiracy in it!

But what the hell does the other party want to do! Brigadier Sampson's brow furrowed even tighter!

At this moment, the two Chinese battleships in the distance, which had been firing unhurriedly before, suddenly completely changed their previous gentle appearance, and the 12 high-raised giant cannons opened fire fiercely almost at the same moment!

In the main turret at the bow of the Sirius, three red indicators are constantly shining above the indicator dial near the firing parameters, which means that ...... Three rounds of rapid shooting!

Boom Boom Boom ...... Boom......

The heavy artillery fire immediately plunged the second-class battleship of the US Right Wing Fleet in the second sequence into a sea of artillery fire, and since the shelling of the Chinese fleet, this American second-class battleship with 12-inch armor has always been in danger, and the two 12-inch main guns on the battleship have been slow to shoot, but they have continued to counterattack.

It's just that the complete obsolescence of artillery skills finally brought disastrous consequences......

At 5:14 p.m., when the battleship Texas saw that the first round of shells had smashed in front of its own channel, the captain of the ship, Colonel Mittels, realized that he was so unlucky that he had suddenly become the target of fire from the two Chinese battleships on the opposite side......

Bastard! Could it be that the Chinese see themselves as easy to bully? Still think the battleship Texas is too eye-catching! Naturally, Colonel Mittels, who was also prepared to learn the lead ship of the Massachusetts for emergency evasion, did not realize that his driving along the route of the Massachusetts was a dead end for him!

The first salvo did not hit the Texas, but out of 12 shells, 2 shells had already landed in the direction of the stern of the Texas, just when the Americans were secretly rejoicing for their own battleship, in less than 70 seconds, in everyone's astonishment, they actually saw two Chinese battleships in the distance, a ball of artillery fire, black smoke rising into the sky!

70 second shelling interval...... This astonishing information alone had already made the American officers involved in the war realize the huge gap, and Commodore Sampson watched in amazement as the Chinese battleship headed sideways at high speed from the black smoke...... There was only one thought in his mind - these Chinese battleships with beautiful lines were simply demons on the sea!

Wu Tiexin didn't have the heart to speculate on the thoughts of the American officers now, the Yankees did not surprise him at all, and sure enough, he followed the lead ship of the queue along the original route for special projects, which is actually a regular practice of the navy, after all, considering the same speed of the fleet, turning in the same position can ensure the consistency of the entire battle line.

But to make this maneuver under your own gun, then this steering position...... There is no doubt that it has become a predictable fixed-point target, and any battleship with this target position will be baptized by the 13.5-inch main gun from the Sky Wolf Battle Cruiser!

But now it seems that the Yankees' luck is really good, the Tiankui battle patrol obviously also discovered this fighter, 12 main guns launched at the same time, two rounds, 24 shells did not hit, of which even observed 4 cross-fire...... But there was no result, considering that the shells were spread at a distance of about 100 meters, it can only be said that the luck of the Yankees was not exhausted!

Boom Boom Boom ...... The Sky Wolf Battle Patrol was the first to complete the third round of reloading, and the shooting officer immediately stared at the level on the fire control platform, and it took less than 7 seconds to press the shock trigger very decisively! Almost exactly 2 seconds later, the main cannon raised high on the Tiankui battle patrol also rang out at the same time!

Wu Tiexin raised his binoculars and pointed at the second-class battleship Texas, which was also desperately fighting back at this time...... What about our luck? The corners of his mouth raised slightly, luck will come sooner or later, the question is whether he caught it!

The rumbling sound of thunder roared away, and after Wu Tiexin's silent countdown, the depressed 6 waves that rushed to the sky directly rose directly into the sky at an almost parallel position on the bow of the battleship Texas, which made Wu Tiexin's raised right hand can't help but clench into a fist and slam it on the observation window railing.

And at this moment, in the middle of the battleship Texas, a cloud of black smoke rose into the sky, and then, the fire of the violent explosion suddenly blew all kinds of messy and miscellaneous objects to the height of two or three masts!

The 640-kilogram high-explosive shell was fired from the twin main guns of the Tiankui Battle Cruiser Block C, and the shell swept through the command room of the battleship Texas and directly hit the deck between the two 12-inch main turrets laid in the center.

After penetrating the deck almost without hindrance, the Texas had good shit luck, the delayed fuse of the shell was directly detonated, and this position happened to be an extension of the vertical armor deck of the two 12-inch main guns, and the high-carbon steel armor belt of the turret was 12 inches thick to withstand the huge impact of the violent explosion.

However, the two groups of American gunners in the turret were unlucky, although the huge impact was blocked by the 12-inch armor, but the huge impact force directly made the people inside be thrown out fiercely, and the two groups of gunners were basically scrapped at that time, and the fire burning from the center made all the American officers and soldiers on the Texas feel the imminent breath of death.

"Sun Ping, this kid, gave him shit luck again!" Wu Tiexin slapped the windowsill and scolded happily, Sun Ping was naturally the shooting commander of the Tiankui Battle Patrol, when Wu Tiexin had a smile on his face, he didn't hesitate at all, "The right deflection is 3 scale compass points, the elevation angle is reduced by 0.1 degrees, and three shots are fired rapidly!" (To be continued......)
