(The collection is not powerful, ask)

Pickup 1 came to a tragic end, while Pickup 2 created a miracle when the air defense ship completely destroyed the Japanese destroyer.

The Pickup No. 2's offensive process was simple and sharp.

Like a swordsman, he doesn't dodge or dodge in the face of the enemy, but just keeps shooting and firing.

In five minutes, Pickup No. 2 advanced five kilometers in the face of enemy artillery fire, and in these five minutes, dozens of guns of Pickup No. 2 fired nearly 1,000 shells. There are many small cannons, and they can beat the Japanese destroyer to pieces in a few minutes, until it is scrapped.

When the pickup truck 2 rushed to the side of the Japanese destroyer, it was found that the buildings on the deck of the Japanese battleship, except for a few turrets, had been blown flat. A destroyer of more than 1,000 tons, flooding in all directions, is slowly sinking.

However, the condition of the pickup truck 2 is not good, although the loss of personnel is not miserable, but the hull is also full of holes and water leaks in many places. The mission of the Pickup 2 is not yet complete, and he still has to continue to designate targets for the battleship. When the two remaining sets of searchlights from the Pickup 2 pointed at the battleship Hiei, the captain found that it was no longer needed.

On the ocean side, the Japanese battleship Hiei was rising into flames tens of meters high, dazzling like a super-large torch on the sea.

With such a target, there was no need to continue to indicate the target, so the column quickly turned off the searchlight, and even the lighting on the pickup truck 2 was turned off. Immediately Pickup 2 hid in the night and withdrew from the battlefield.

The Pacific was fighting bravely at this time, and when the two battleships were less than sixteen kilometers apart, the Pacific battleship had already hit the battleship Hiei again. THE DEVIL'S HIREI HAD NOT RETURNED FIRE WITH ITS MAIN GUNS FOR THREE MINUTES, AND ONLY RELIED ON A FEW 152MM NAVAL GUNS TO FIRE HARASSING AT THE PACIFIC.

At this moment, how could Zheng Xuechang care about the damage of small-caliber naval guns. He seized the opportunity, and the Pacific continued with another round of shelling.

The Hiei made an earth-shattering explosion, and the eight shells were able to hit three at once, which was really high enough. All three shells hit the side of the Hiei, and the violent explosion peeled off the armor of one side of the Hiei like a skin, and the sea water rushed in.

Zheng Xuechang became more and more courageous, and looked forward to the next round of shelling to deal a devastating blow to the Hiei.

"Enemy ship, 160 degrees to starboard, 6,000 meters."

The sonar soldier reported quickly.

With the screaming of the cannonballs, the explosions continued one after another, and the battleship trembled, and the Pacific was shot again.

When the Pacific went all out to deal with the Hiei, Kono Manjo had already discovered the crisis, and the battleship was a national treasure of the Great Japanese Empire and could not be sunk. Kono Manjo immediately ordered two heavy cruisers to attack with all their might to save the Hiei.

In this way, two Japanese heavy cruisers actually approached the inner circle of less than seven kilometers of the Pacific Ocean. The devil was savage and brave enough, and in order to rescue the Hiei, the heavy cruiser actually adopted the tactical means of a destroyer. AT THE LAST MOMENT, THE TWO BATTLESHIPS' 203MM GUNS OF UP TO TWENTY GUNS OPENED FIRE ON THE PACIFIC TOGETHER.

Although the power of the shells was not small, it was clear that the battleship was only partially damaged in armor and did not penetrate the armor of the Pacific.

Zheng Xuechang originally planned to continue to deal with the battleship Hiei, but at such a close distance, the heavy cruiser also had the ability to damage the battleship, and it would be terrible if it hit the weak armor.

Two fists are hard to beat four hands, just such a battleship, Zheng Xuechang can't make any magical decisions. The miraculous stratagem that has been preached by the Chinese people has little room to play in this battle, and there is not much to be done in the brutal war, especially in this face-to-face battle to the death.

Zheng Xuechang also had to abandon the Hiei and deal with the immediate crisis first. When Zheng Xuechang ordered the main guns to turn, the two Japanese heavy cruisers not only had 20 main guns, but also dozens of secondary guns opened fire together, and the Pacific was hit by more than 30 rounds in just one or two minutes, and the superstructure of the battleship was blown up to a mess.

However, this is not the most crisis, and the next moment the sonar soldier hurriedly reported again: "Torpedoes, at least six." ”

Before the sonar soldier could report the bearing, the sonar soldier reported again: "There are four more." ”

The torpedoes were fired from three angles, and not far away.

The most dangerous thing was that a Japanese destroyer, like an assassin, approached less than two kilometers from the Pacific. (The destroyers of the devil's salvage aviation have already arrived at the battlefield.) ）

This can't be blamed on the sonar soldiers' dereliction of duty, the sonar soldiers have already reported the approach of the devil's battleship, but Zheng Xuechang is not three-headed and six-armed, and he can't take care of these small and medium-sized Japanese warships if he beats the battleship Hiei.

The sonar is fast enough, but the devil's torpedo is even faster. The sound of the rapid torpedo propellers was too loud for the sonar soldiers to give orders, and no matter how they dodged, it was difficult to be effective, and as many as ten torpedoes had sealed the space for the Pacific to move.

Zheng Xuechang's face was pale, and his fists were clenched. Ordered: "Turn left thirty degrees." ”

This is not a normal means of dodging torpedoes, Zheng Xuechang just adjusted the angle of the battleship and leaked the smallest area to the direction of the most torpedoes.

Li Guang also secretly shouted in his heart: "It's over." Although the Pacific was approaching the entrance to the Gulf of Aden at this time, the accumulation of advantages that Li Guang had been planning did not play a role.

The Pacific spent the next few minutes literally passing by, one torpedo passing by, another passing the bow, and the next another crossing the stern.

The ten torpedoes felt as if they were endless, and with an earth-shattering explosion, Li Guang was shocked and jumped. Everyone on the bridge was shaken.

Good luck with the Pacific today, weather or otherwise.

A torpedo was hit in the right side of the armor on the right side of the bow of the Pacific ship, and the powerful Type 93 oxygen torpedo was in the middle of the waterline, not only blowing through the armor, but also tearing open an entire section of watertight compartments, and more than 10 watertight compartments were flooded.

You can despise devils, but the horror of this torpedo is undeniable. A torpedo with a charge of 490 kilograms is far more powerful than the torpedoes of all countries in the world. This torpedo alone caused more damage to the Pacific than all previous shells of the Pacific combined.

The huge force of the explosion made it difficult for all the officers and men on the battleship to recover within a minute. Casualties are simply impossible to count at a moment's notice. The huge hull of the battleship Pacific was slammed as if it had been struck by a giant hammer, and the bow of the ship was actually pushed out several meters, and the battleship changed its direction.

And that's not all, after the explosion, the Pacific immediately tilted its hull, but it was quickly restored again. It was not that the damaged warrior moved quickly, but because the bow of the ship sank, more seawater poured into the part where it had been shot before, and it magically corrected itself to tilt.

But this is definitely bad for the Pacific Can't be broken, the speed that was already slow enough, at this moment quickly dropped to fifteen knots, and it is still decreasing.

At this speed, not to mention getting out of the encirclement of the Japanese fleet, it is difficult to support it for a period of time. Such a slow speed was a target for well-trained Japanese gunners.

As the battleship Pacific was torpedoed, the Pacific was hit by more than a dozen shells again within a few minutes, and the 203MM guns at close range caused serious damage to the Pacific, and several large holes were blown out of the deck and side sides.

At this distance, the 203MM gun is still a great threat to battleships, especially old battleships like the Pacific, and it is not very difficult to penetrate the armor, especially the armor in non-important parts. Due to the extremely fast rate of fire of the main guns of the Japanese heavy cruisers, which could easily reach three rounds a minute, the Pacific was powerless to fight back under the dense artillery fire.

Casualties are inevitable, both Li Guang and Zheng Xuechang have expectations for this, but there is one injury that the two are most concerned about.

The level of concern for this damage is even greater than that of the watertight chamber. The battleship Pacific had more than 170 watertight compartments, and its design was much behind the aircraft carriers being built in Uruguay. You must know that the aircraft carrier under construction is expected to have a full load displacement of 32,000 tons, but it has 600 watertight cabins. Even so, as long as the watertight door of the Pacific was closed in time, even if thirty or twenty watertight compartments were flooded, the battleship would not sink immediately.

But the fire could be fatal to the Pacific.

The battleship Hiei of the devil is now a torch, and you only need to look at it to know the horror of the battleship on fire, and the rising flames go straight to Xiaohan, and the flames are two hundred meters high, showing a beautiful horror.

The Pacific was able to avoid a misfire thanks to a technological innovation of the Naval Resistance Force. In this era, whether it was Britain or Japan, the heavy oil used in warships was crude oil. The French, on the other hand, use crude oil that has been simply refined - light fuel oil with a low ignition point and low volatile point, such as gasoline and gas, after simple heating and evaporation. This little trick was not known to the Japanese Navy throughout World War II, or rather, it was known but not implemented.

Li Guang firmly believes that details determine success or failure. The so-called combat effectiveness is accumulated bit by bit. As a result, the heavy oil used by the Naval Resistance Army was simply refined. Although this refining process did not obtain any high-quality gasoline, it also stored a lot of inferior gasoline for the Navy, and in order to make full use of this inferior gasoline, the Navy's resistance army later developed an extremely important weapon. This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

Due to the simple refining of the fuel oil, the Pacific's hold was broken in several places, and although small fires were inevitable, there were no uncontrollable fires, which can be regarded as a good reward.

The mere absence of a misfire will not solve the crisis of the Pacific. Shelled by two heavy cruisers in turn, the already scarred body of the Pacific could not last much time.
