Chapter 767: Naval Sneak Attack
As soon as the time for the Japanese Navy's ultimatum to the Wehrmacht arrived, a loud screech of shells streaked across the sky over the battlefield. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
More than 100 large-caliber naval artillery shells flew for more than 10 seconds before they smashed into Yingkou City, and then burst out with a violent explosion that shook the mountains.
After the explosion, black mushroom clouds rose directly over Yingkou City.
"The devil is really ruthless, he even used the main guns of the warship, I see that this posture is trying to raze our Yingkou City to the ground!" Chen Jiliang, the commander of the navy with a shocked face, frowned and said with emotion.
Although he did not enter the city to witness the power of the large-caliber naval guns, the violent explosions and the mushroom cloud rising into the sky already speak for themselves.
Although the razing of Yingkou City to the ground was a huge loss for the National Defense Army, in order to severely damage the devil fleet, Yang Xingguo could only take Yingkou City out and let the devils blow it up. In a word, if the devil navy does not blow up Yingkou City, they will not see the compromise on the surface of the Wehrmacht, and their vigilance will not be relaxed.
Because the power of the naval guns was too great, it only took less than half an hour for the Devil Navy Detachment to blow Yingkou City into rubble.
In addition, it was already dark, and the warship was too far away from the target, and it was impossible to see the effect of continued shelling. The Devil Navy decisively stopped shelling.
Of course, in order to celebrate the success of the just-concluded shelling, the successful destruction of a city by the Wehrmacht.
A dinner was held on every warship of the entire detachment, and in addition to the fact that the navy was richer than the army, each devil navy was given a bottle or two of sake to celebrate today's victory.
It wasn't until ten o'clock in the evening that the bustling warship slowly quieted down.
Because every devil drank sake, even though he was not drunk, it was indispensable to be tired after drinking.
Add to this the fact that they are all in the open sea, and today's successful shelling in their opinion means a compromise for the Wehrmacht. As the temperature on the surface of the sea gets colder and colder, there are fewer devil sentinels on the decks of warships.
Maybe God is also helping the Wehrmacht, and now although it is not raining, the sea breeze is still quite strong. The sound of waves crashing on the side of the ship, more than a metre high, was a good dragging out of the sound generated by the actions of the Wehrmacht Navy.
Under the cover of night and the sound of the waves, the sixteen warships with the worst performance in the Wehrmacht naval fleet were like old men who had not forgived for years, and they were advancing very the sea.
Because it was a sneak attack, more than a dozen warships were not lit, like ghosts in the night, slowly approaching the devil fleet.
In order to increase the hit rate of shells, coupled with the fact that the environment on the sea surface is very suitable for sneak attacks.
The sixteen warships did not stop until they were three nautical miles away from the devil's fleet, and then quickly adjusted the firing angle of the naval guns on the warships and prepared for the shelling.
After confirming that all the large and small naval guns on the 16 warships were aimed at the devil fleet, Zhang Haoyu, the commander of the detachment who commanded the sneak attack, decisively gave the order to open fire.
After a dull loud bang, nearly two hundred shells of various calibers quickly flew out of the barrels, and then flew towards the devil fleet with a piercing scream.
The three-nautical-mile artillery range, coupled with the Wehrmacht's preemptive strike, made more than 200 shells hit 60 percent.
More than 130 shells smashed on the deck of the devil's warship and exploded, and the fireballs and black smoke that rose into the air quickly illuminated the devil's fleet with the same name. In a series of violent explosions, there was a devil warship on the spot, because it was directly hit by the shells fired by the two main ship's guns and the ammunition depot exploded, and the entire warship was directly blown into two, and then quickly sank to the bottom of the sea.
As for the remaining shells, although many of them hit the target, because the caliber of the shells is not large, although they caused a lot of damage to the devil warship, they were not fatal.
After one round of shelling, the Wehrmacht Navy quickly rushed to the gun position, then used its own speed to change the shells of the ship's guns, and then fired a second round of shells, trying to destroy more warships before the devils counterattacked.
The devil fleet that was attacked was a big alarm bell, and the devils who were resting in the cabin one by one, with shocked expressions, rushed to the deck with a curse, and then rushed to their own combat positions, and then began to adjust the guns of the ships according to the data provided by the observation post, preparing for a counterattack.
At this moment, the second round of artillery shells fired by the Wehrmacht again came to their heads with a screeching sound.
After a series of violent explosions sounded, another warship was destroyed. Not only that, but there were two warships that rose with billowing smoke, and if nothing else, these two warships must have been hit hard.
What's more, because a large number of devils rushed to the deck, at least two hundred devils were blown into minced meat in this round of explosions.
Until the explosion of the third round of shells fired by the Wehrmacht, three warships of the devils were destroyed in succession. The remaining warships of the devils began to counterattack.
At this time, the gap between the new warship and the old warship was suddenly manifested.
The new warships equipped by the devils, both in terms of the caliber of naval guns and armor protection, far surpass the old warships.
The shells fired by the guns of the Wehrmacht Navy can destroy a new warship of the devil with a dozen or even dozens of shells. And the large-caliber naval artillery shells fired by the devil navy only need two or three to easily destroy the old warships equipped by the Wehrmacht.
Therefore, the devil warship only counterattacked with one round of shells, and three of the sixteen old warships were severely damaged on the spot. One was blown into two pieces and sank directly to the bottom of the sea, and the remaining two were blown out of two large holes, and with a large amount of seawater pouring into the cabin, the two warships had lost their balance, and it was only a matter of ten minutes before they were silent.
But even if there is a huge gap in strength between the two fleets, the Wehrmacht has no intention of retreating, and continues to fire artillery and devils.
The commander of the Devil Naval Fleet, after the shock and stunned at the beginning, quickly covered his face with excitement.
He clearly saw that as his fleet began to counterattack, the tide of battle was becoming more and more favorable to him.
Especially after the second round of counterattack shells from the fleet, the whole naval battle has unwittingly turned into a one-sided massacre.
If he can completely annihilate a fleet of the Wehrmacht in action, it will certainly be a great feat.
Thinking of this, the commander of the devil's fleet immediately ordered all the warships under his command to stare at the Wehrmacht naval fleet, and they must all be annihilated here.
As soon as the order was issued, the devils and the remaining devil soldiers on the warship focused their eyes on the Wehrmacht naval fleet, which was also illuminated by artillery fire three nautical miles away.
Soon, five of the sixteen warships at the time of departure were still holding on. Even the decks of these five warships were blown up with holes everywhere and could be blown up at any time.
Of course, the sixteen warships did not gain nothing, and in just over ten minutes of battle, they successfully destroyed five warships and severely damaged two.
If this had been placed in a frontal naval battle, they would never have achieved such a big result.
But this is a sneak attack after all, the two fleets are so close that the range advantage is suddenly gone, and all we need to do is to hit each other with shells as fast as they can. (To be continued.) )
