Chapter 82: The Battle of the South China Sea X
With a displacement of more than 3,000 tons and a length of more than 140 meters, the Tianlong's huge body had already been hit by four bullets at this time. As the raging sea water poured in from a large hole in the hull, the hull began to tilt.
Kotaro Goto was brandishing a war knife at this time and howled loudly: "Shoot." ”
This devil is indeed strange enough, with a knife on a battleship, and in modern warfare, there is also a medieval hand-to-hand fight?
Several junior officers did not dare to speak at all in the face of their crazy superiors. The battleship has begun to tilt, and now it can make do with escape, if it is too late, I am afraid that there will be no chance to escape.
But Goto Kotaro was like a red-eyed gambler at this time, not letting go of the last little opportunity, and commanded the three guns to continue to fight back.
By this time, the hull had begun to tilt, the rotation of the ship's guns had begun to be inflexible, and the rate of fire and accuracy could not be counted on at all.
Kotaro Goto, who gambled generally, shot three torpedoes at once. Under normal circumstances, these three torpedoes are a huge threat to the Baxia. But now it is not a normal situation at all, the torpedo men of the devils on the Tianlong were in a panic, the calculation was not accurate at all, and the three torpedoes entered the water, and the angle actually deviated to the tail of the Baxia. And the Baxia is advancing at this time, which is simply impossible to shoot.
However, these three torpedoes still made Zheng Xuechang worry a lot, and at this time the light began to dim, and it was impossible to find the torpedo with the naked eye. With a sonar soldier reporting: "Torpedo passed through the stern." ”
Zheng Xuechang was relieved. The light cruiser had six torpedo tubes, but only three on one side. If it is loaded, it will take at least ten minutes. Zheng Xuechang once again ordered the main gun to be aimed at the fight. Strive to achieve the decisive victory in these more than ten minutes.
There was a sharp whistling sound in the air again, like death urging life, terrifying and abnormal. Many devils trembled with fear from the sharp sound of cannonballs.
With a shock to the ship's hull, a cannonball hit the Draco again. However, this shell miraculously did not explode, but only drilled a hole in part of the armor of the Tenryu's waterline.
At this time, many little devils were already scared out of their urine, and when they saw that the shell did not explode, they thought it was their Aunt Amaterasu's blessing. This can only be said that the armor-piercing projectiles of the Soviets had problems with the quality, penetrated the bulkhead and did not explode. However, the effectiveness of this shell has not completely disappeared, and at this time, the almost red shell is emitting wolf smoke billowing from a puddle of heavy oil.
The temperature of the shells passing through at high speed is extremely high, and if it is at night, the dark red trajectory of the shells can be seen with the naked eye. Soon the smoke of heavy oil filled the entire cabin, and then wafted out from the cracks in the deck, the bottom of the warship was the engine room, the oil smoke was heavy, the first thing that filled the engine room was the engine room, and the devils inside were choked and coughed.
The gunners on the Baxia became more and more comfortable, and at the beginning of the battle, more than 30 shells only hit the battleship once, but now the distance is also close, and the feeling is clearer, and five or six cannons can hit the battleship of the Yuejun army.
This era is not the XXI century, and the shooting of heavy artillery is not exactly the distance measured by the rangefinder, and then the cannon is adjusted according to the gun table. In actual shooting, most gunners slightly adjust the angle according to conditions such as air pressure and wind speed, but these require experience. And for the gunners of the Naval Resistance Army, what was lacking was experience.
Liu Fang, the commander of the main gun, showed great courage in this battle, and in the process of high-intensity shooting, he seemed to find a feeling that the main gun was getting more and more accurate under his command.
When a grenade hit the Draco again, a flash of light shone in the sky from the smoke-filled Draco, followed by a skyrocketing fire. The fire was so intense that it enveloped the entire warship almost in the blink of an eye.
Zheng Xuechang wiped the sweat on his face, and only then did he put his heart in his stomach. The battle has been won.
The Baxia approached the burning Tenryu at high speed, and fired a torpedo from a distance of less than a hundred meters. In the violent explosion of this torpedo, the light cruiser Tenryu began to sink rapidly. At this time, there were little devil sailors swimming to the Baxia for help.
Although the light cruiser Tianlong is not very advanced, it can be regarded as a cruiser, with a military establishment of 367 people. Li Guang once said that we are soldiers, not butchers. This concept is not accepted by the Marine Corps, but Zheng Xuechang admires it very much. How did he know that Li Guang was purely pretending to be coercive and hypocritical. In his heart, Li Guang couldn't wait to destroy all the little devils.
This is the first time that the Naval Resistance Army has been able to capture devil naval soldiers in the posture of victors.
However, the Maritime Resistance Army did not dare to stay here for a long time, so they made a few circles and captured dozens of devils and hurried to the south to break through. This is what Li Guang has always been looking forward to, and the Naval Resistance Army has not yet captured the regular navy.
After the battle was over, Zheng Xuechang had the news of Pixiu again. The Pixiu did not find the submarine and was slipped by the little devil.
Zheng Xuechang ordered the Pixiu to return immediately. You must know that the devil will definitely not give up on losing a light cruiser. Until the JPJ breaks out of the Strait of Malacca, it is not safe.
And the Baxia and Pickup are now obviously not suitable to appear in the Strait of Malacca, and need to be escorted by the Pixiu. After the battle, Zheng Xuechang learned that the pickup was also hit by a shot, but it did not hurt the vital point, but the pickup was enough to choke even if it was not injured, after all, it was not a warship. And the casualties caused by this cannon to the pickup were quite serious, with five killed and thirty-one wounded.
There is a suspense in this battle, the submarine Yi 52 was neither sunk by the Pixiu, nor did it return to the fleet, and just disappeared into the ocean.
The little devil himself is to blame for this, and the design margin of this submarine is very small, and the maximum dive depth designed by the Yi-52 is 45 meters, but this time it is sunk in 60 meters of water.
The margin of submarine design, especially for shallow water submarines, is generally very large, such as the German submarine with a depth of 75 meters, and sometimes it is not a problem to reach 150 meters. As a result, a few hours after the Yi-52 submarine sank to the bottom of the sea, the pipeline burst and flooded too much, and it could not float after the Pixiu left, and became an iron coffin at the bottom of the ocean.
The battle of the Navy is different from the battle of the Army, and it is vividly demonstrated in this battle. A multi-million dollar warship was buried at the bottom of the sea in just one hour. And equipment of this value, if put into the Chinese Army, is the weapon of several divisions. It is said that the army is also a brigade and regiment equipment.
The naval resistance force was able to win, and technical factors played a crucial role. The most prominent thing is the long range of the cannon.
In this sense, the navy is the most expensive army, and it is also the most technologically charged service, and it is also the service that most embodies the training of soldiers. The soldiers on the entire warship, after years of training, only took an hour to exert their power. In many naval battles it was even only a few minutes.
This is another big victory for the Naval Resistance Army, and its gold content is second only to the three warships that sank the Yue Army last time. More importantly, in this battle, the sea surface ship Baxia showed superhuman combat effectiveness, and the fighters on the Baxia got the baptism of war.
