Chapter 628: Heads-up

The captain of the Agile, Kosygin, let out a long breath, looked at the Li Wenzhong in the distance, and then said, "Forward!" ”

The four gas turbines with a total of 72,000 horsepower on this latest warship of more than 4,000 tons were quickly activated, and with its excellent acceleration performance, it quickly exceeded 30 knots, rode the wind and waves on the blue Mediterranean, and rushed directly to the 33rd degree east longitude interception line.

They knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for the Ming army to be soft, and this army, which had just risen for less than twenty years, had never had such a record.

What awaits them next is inevitably war.

Whether to end the myth of the Ming army's undefeated and add another stroke to their record of victory, the results will soon be revealed.

"Valliant Red Navy officers!

For victory!

Advance! ”

Captain Kosygin said with a heroic wave.

Beside him rang out a shout of Ulla.

A minute later, the Agile crossed the 33rd longitude interception line.

Captain Kosygin and all the officers and men of his subordinates stared at their opponents with wide eyes, and the next moment, fifteen kilometers away, a striking track suddenly flew out of the apostle of Li Wenzhong, like a white dragon.

It was an Eagle Strike anti-ship missile.

At the moment of seeing this scene, Captain Kosygin shouted: "Launch!" ”

In a Styx missile launch box on the starboard side of the Agile, a huge Styx missile suddenly flew out, dragging the same spectacular track straight towards Li Wenzhong.

Almost at the same time, one of the sky-shattering missiles flew out from each of the two spiral arm launchers at the end of the latter, and after flying upwards for a short while, the two missiles almost simultaneously tilted downward and flew straight down towards the River Styx, which was flying at an altitude of about twenty meters.

"No. 2 launched!"

Kosygin shouted.

The second Styx flew out immediately after.

The second Eagle Strike anti-ship missile and the third and fourth Earthquake missiles on the Li Wenzhong also flew out.

The two Goa ship-to-air missiles on the Agile also flew out, but this was just a consolation, even Captain Kosygin knew that they could not hit the target, this ship-to-air missile transplanted from the land-based Sam 3 did not have the ability to intercept sea-skimming targets, and what could really provide protection for the Agile was still the ancient naval guns and a new generation of jamming devices.

At an altitude that the Goa missiles could not attack, the first Eagle Strike and the first Styx almost staggered up and down, and by this time the Eagle Strike had descended to less than three meters above the surface of the sea, slamming into the Agile as if it were gliding against the sea.

"The naval guns fire, the jammers are turned on, the jamming bombs are released, and the right rudder is evaded!"

Kosygin ordered without hesitation.

As soon as he finished speaking, two sky-shattering missiles on the sea in the distance, which were still trailing, crashed into the first Styx almost at the same time, and an exploding flame instantly rose on the surface of the sea, and the water column stirred up by the explosion soared into the sky.

Kosygin didn't care about these anymore, and while spraying jamming bombs frantically outward, and forming a spectacular interference cloud, the Agile under his feet was also turning rapidly, and in the process of turning, including two twin seven- and six-millimeter guns, almost all kinds of artillery of all calibers pointed at the incoming missiles were also frantically spraying shells outward, and tracer lines of fire were pulled up on the surface of the sea, like spears piercing the YPM missiles.

However, this is of no avail, and even an automatic naval gun with radar fire control wants to intercept a missile that is only less than four meters long, less than three or five or six millimeters in diameter, and flies at a speed of more than 900 kilometers per hour at an altitude of less than two meters above the sea surface. But the Soviets obviously did not have such bad luck, Kosygin's eyes almost flashed black, and the deck under his feet shook violently, followed by a series of relatively slight tremors, and before he could react, the starboard side suddenly erupted with flames along with the fragments of the ship's hull.

Shot.

"Check the loss!"

He roared in a barrage of frightened screams.

There was another loud explosion on the sea in the distance, and the second Styx they launched still did not break through the interception of the Earthquake Missile, but the Goa they launched was also unable to intercept the second Eagle Strike. Just as the Soviet sailors were frantically checking the damage caused by the first Eagle Strike, the missile, with the flames of the engine, plunged headlong into the hull at the feet of Captain Kosygin, and the semi-armor-piercing warhead easily smashed through layers of steel plates, until the inside of the hull was nearly ten meters deep before stopping, and then turned into a raging flame demon and quickly destroyed everything around it.

The Agile began to slow down at high speed, and on its starboard waterline were two huge holes that were shocking, and the flames of fuel were constantly spewing out, billowing smoke over the brand-new battleship, which had not sunk, but had been completely destroyed, and the Soviet sailors on board were trying to extinguish the flames, but it had turned into a futile effort.

The first naval engagement between the Ming and the Soviet Union ended simply.

"Play with this, you're still tender!"

Li Zhao, the captain of the Li Wenzhong, looked at the Agile that had begun to ignite the fire and said disdainfully.

The Ming army's four sky-shattering missiles shot down two Styx, and two Eagle Strike missiles destroyed the Agile, and the whole process did not fire a single shot, and the missile-to-missile victory was achieved, which was also the first ship-to-ship missile bombardment in the history of war, and it was obvious that the Soviets failed to create a miracle.

A few minutes later, the Soviet Foreign Ministry issued a statement angrily denouncing the Ming destroyer Li Wenzhong for its brutal sneak attack on the Soviet destroyer Agile on the high seas, resulting in serious damage to the Agile and casualties among nearly 100 Soviet naval officers and men on board.

"The righteous people of the Ming Empire must pay for this, and then they will bear the righteous wrath of the Soviet people, and we will use all necessary means to defend the right of free navigation on the high seas and the dignity of the sickle and hammer banner."

Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko waved his fist and shouted at the press conference.

And at this time, the real big war between the two sides had already begun.

Just after the Agile was destroyed by the Eagle Strike missile, Kasatonov immediately ordered the main fleet to stop advancing, it was obvious that once he entered the range of the Ming Army's Eagle Strike missile, it would be difficult for him to ensure the safety of his fleet, in this case, let's play the most orthodox one. All the Soviet escort ships contracted to protect the aircraft carrier, and at the same time took off the Yak-25M carrier-based aircraft and the Tiger Shark of the Ming army to compete for air supremacy on the battlefield, while the Ukrainian formation from the port of Tartus to the south stared at the Clemenceau in the north to prevent the French from entering the war, as for the three British aircraft carriers behind him, he chose to ignore it directly, the land-based fighter that took off from Alexandria to deter.

In fact, he didn't think that Britain and France would enter the war, these two families didn't have the guts, they could follow and pick up the cheap, but if they really wanted to get involved in the war, they would retreat.

Kasatonov knows that his Yak-25M can't do the Super Tiger Shark alone, in fact, this fighter and the Tiger Shark are not very safe to fight alone, the performance gap between the two fighters is not very large, the Yak-25 as a carrier-based aircraft also relies on a large number of titanium alloy bonuses, although expensive but compared to the land-based version of the performance is a cut higher, it can be said that it is the same level as the Tiger Shark and the Crusader, but the Tiger Shark's air-to-air missile bonus is too powerful, this is almost incomprehensible, so in the first attack wave, the Soviet fleet took off eighty Yak-25M.

On the Yingtian, because the Super Tiger Shark was larger than the Tiger Shark, the number of aircraft carried was reduced to fifty, considering that it was impossible to dispatch all of them, so that in fact the Soviet side had at least twice the advantage.

Kasatonov's goal is to use this double advantage to pile up the Ming carrier-based aircraft, but he must fight quickly, because once it drags on for a long time, the Ming land-based Tiger Sharks in Port Suez will arrive, and they use the land-based fighters in Alexandria to deal with this batch of Ming troops, but the MiG-21PF is still used there, and it is obvious that from the use of the Egyptians, it is difficult to say whether this fighter can intercept the Ming army.

So his first wave of attacks had to go all out.

Eighty Yak-25Ms that took off from the Belarus and Armenia flew straight at the Yingtian.

"Soviet carrier-based aircraft took off in formation."

On the Yingtian, the chief of staff reported to Lin Ze.

"The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd squadrons were ordered to take off, and the 4th squadron was on alert, and as soon as the Soviet carrier-based aircraft crossed the interception line, they opened fire directly to attack."

Lin Ze said.

In fact, the two sides have not really started fighting now, the Ming army is still playing the flag of intercepting the Soviet fleet, and any Soviet warships and planes that cross the interception line will be attacked, and although the Soviet side shouted fiercely, it is still determined to defend their legitimate navigation rights on the high seas, that is to say, both sides are controlling the scale of the engagement, controlling the scope of the engagement, since this is the case, the Ming army cannot break the rules first, as long as the Soviets do not intercept the line, there is no need to attack.

After receiving the order, on the deck of the aircraft carrier Yingtian, the Super Tiger Shark fighters, which had been on standby for a long time, quickly ejected one after another, carrying two air-to-air missiles, Lightning and Thunderbolt, and pounced on the Soviet aircraft group.

At this time, on the Soviet airfield in Alexandria, dozens of large bombers were ready to go, with a sharp nose like a dagger, a slender streamlined body that made it look like a silver shuttle, and on both sides of the huge vertical tail, there were two equally huge jet engines, coupled with large-angle swept wings, so that this kind of aircraft has extraordinary speed at a glance.

This is Figure 22 with no M behind.

Although both bombers use the same number, the difference is worlds apart.

At this time, under these bombers, a large number of ground crews are busy and busy, hanging a giant missile comparable to the size of a fighter on the belly of the aircraft, this missile is too big, the length alone is comparable to a Scud, the diameter of the bomb is even close to one meter, in addition to the lack of a pilot's cockpit, and the wings are also much smaller, and the others look no different from an airplane.

This is the newest Soviet KH22 Storm large supersonic anti-ship missile.

And NATO gave it the name AS4, kitchen. (To be continued.) )
