PS: Is there a commuter pass? Pleased, pleased. I just looked at the monthly ticket list today, and the results were too bad, so I licked my face and begged for a monthly pass.

Lieutenant General Fu 7 Okawauchi was awakened by the sound of artillery.

If it is true that Lieutenant General Fu Qi Okawauchi has aged his war thinking, then his skills in traditional naval warfare are also solid. As for naval night battles, Vice Admiral Fu 7 Okawauchi is famous in the Japanese Navy. As early as 27 years, when he was an instructor at the Japanese Naval University, he studied night warfare and organized many night combat exercises. On one occasion, because of the brutal high-intensity night combat training, a lot of losses were caused, resulting in the damage of the supernatural power, the Nako cruiser and two destroyers, which was the famous American security incident in the history of the Japanese Navy.

Okawauchi Fuqi's reputation in the Japanese Navy was not prominent, but he was a master of night fighting, but he was unquestionable among the Japanese army. Many of the techniques and rules of night fighting in the Japanese army came from him.

In a sense, Vice Admiral Fu 7 Okawauchi was absolutely confident in the deployment of the fleet to sail into Trincomalee at night, and he was not afraid to fight at night.

Li Guang thought that Fu Qi did not make full use of the advantages of the aircraft carrier and was quite stupid. But in fact, Okawauchi Fu Qi was not stupid to that point, those two so-called aircraft carriers were just goods, and the fighters could take off but could not land, and they could not bear the responsibility of aircraft carriers. In addition, the two poor escort aircraft carriers, in fact, except for ten naval fighters each, the other planes were army planes, and their combat effectiveness was quite weak.

Vice Admiral Fu 7 Okawauchi also took precautions against possible encounters, not only did a considerable number of crew members stay at their combat posts all the time, but the identification objects invented by the Japanese army in the night battle were also hung on the top of the stern early, and a white cloth bag with a length of ten meters was hung on each warship, floating in the air.

With the first cannon shot, the fifty-eight-year-old Lieutenant General Fu Qi of Okawauchi immediately opened his eyes. He did not go back to the cabin to sleep at all. I have been staying in the bridge command cabin with my eyes closed. This is not easy for a fifty-eight-year-old old officer, and not every high-ranking general can do this.

This is a formidable opponent.

What's even more terrifying is the reaction speed of Fu Qi in Okawauchi.

From the first cannon sound, to the time Fu Qi Okawauchi issued dozens of orders, there were only four minutes. In these four minutes, he quickly took control of the situation on the battlefield and made a judgment to start executing.

Under the absolute disadvantage, Okawauchi Fu Qi can keep his heart calm and can do this. It's definitely not easy.

When reviewing after the war, Zheng Xuechang expressed considerable respect for Lieutenant General Fu Qi of Okawauchi, and the conclusion remained that this was a formidable opponent. This is an aggressor, who does not have much fame even in the history of later generations, and this is also a piece of garbage that has committed a lot of viciousness against China. But it is a worthy opponent.

In four minutes, the eight main guns of the battleship Atlantic had completed the first salvo. First result.

Since the Japanese fleet was not a regular circular formation. On the contrary, it is closer to the three-column column. Directly in front of the fleet were flanked by two heavy cruisers, and in the middle were the escort aircraft carrier Yunying.

If it is said that in an extremely ideal state, the Atlantic will not choose the Yunying aircraft carrier as the primary target, and should choose the heavy cruiser with two wings as the target. But it was nighttime, and the sky was absolutely clear, although there were flares. Due to the full load displacement of the Yunying aircraft carrier reached more than 20,000 tons. It is the largest one in the Japanese fleet, so by mistake, this aircraft carrier has become the first target of the Naval Resistance Army.

The battleship Atlantic showed great gunnonship in the first round of shelling, eight shells hit two of them. Fourteen kilometers apart. At night again, it was able to achieve a 25 percent hit rate, which is an excellent result even in the history of naval forces around the world.

The appearance of goods is the appearance of goods. The two huge bombs hit and destroyed the vitality of this giant ship with a displacement of 20,000 tons. The horrific explosion not only caused chaos inside the ship, but also blew through the bottom of the ship. From the moment it was shot, the giant ship had already entered the countdown.

This was the first victory of the Naval Resistance Army, and it was also the first torch lit in the Bay of Bengal, and the fire was so dazzling that even the wind and rain in the Indian Ocean could hardly hide its brilliant brilliance.

The four destroyers of the Naval Resistance Army also achieved success, and in just four minutes, the ship's guns dropped hundreds of shells. At least 10 heavy cruisers hit both flanks of the Japanese army, and although they failed to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese heavy cruisers, they had already reduced the combat effectiveness of these two heavy cruisers in the first place. This round of shelling destroyed at least two or three secondary guns of the Japanese heavy cruiser, and the credit is not small.

Cool, so cool. In the headquarters located in Tang Harbor, there was a cheer. Although Li Guang was not on the battlefield, as soon as the battle broke out, telegrams were transmitted to the headquarters at every moment.

In four minutes, Fu Qi issued dozens of orders.

The Japanese fleet quickly began to adjust. Merchant ships to the north, battleships to the south.

You must know that the original formation of the Japanese army was sandwiched between two warships of merchant ships, and such a turn was extremely dangerous in the sea on a rainy night, which not only tested the maneuvering level of the Japanese warships, but also tested the maneuvering level of the Japanese merchant ships.

In the next few minutes, the Japanese army gave the officers of the Naval Resistance Army a great shock. The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. While the Japanese guns returned fire, they adjusted their formation and played a difficult interspersed formation.

All these actions are like walking together. Such a large fleet, such a delicate change of formation, even if it is deduced on the charts of the General Staff, I am afraid that it is nothing more than that.

Moreover, what is even more terrifying is that in this process, the artillery of the naval resistance army is roaring, the artillery of the Japanese army is still counterattacking, and the shells of the two sides are like heavy fists pounding intensively on the sea, and the water mist that rises almost makes people feel like falling into the fog, and they can't see the friendly ships clearly, and they can't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy.

It was under such harsh conditions that the Japanese army smoothly changed formation, and all the battleships raised their speed.

By the time the change was over, the Japanese triremes had been divided into two parts. The merchant ships and two destroyers rushed to the north and broke away from the battlefield. The battleships sailed south, forming two artillery columns.

During the whole process, not a single ship collided with the Japanese troops, not even a minor bruise.

At the beginning, Li Guang captured the crew of the Japanese merchant ships, and he had seen the level of those captives operating the ships, and the huge ships with a displacement of several thousand tons docked at the dock without using tugboats.

And this time, on the ocean east of Ceylon, the Japanese army displayed a very high level of command and ship management, which is simply amazing. To put it mildly, if you want to increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige, if the Naval Resistance Army is in such a formation and changes its formation during the day, it may not be able to achieve such a level, or even absolutely can't do it.

In the process of changing formations, the Japanese army was not without losses, and one destroyer was hit by more than ten bullets in a row by a Tengu-class destroyer, losing its combat effectiveness. A slow merchant ship, battered by the battleship's cannons, once again became a torch on the sea. An even greater result was that the main guns of the battleship Atlantic hit the heavy cruiser Kumano, and one of the main gun turrets was completely destroyed, and the Japanese suffered heavy casualties.

Under the desperate counterattack of the Japanese artillery, the naval resistance forces also paid a considerable price, and Captain Yuan Chaozu, who had made great contributions in the battle to encircle and suppress the two Japanese destroyers last month, was wounded, and the No. 11 destroyer was severely damaged and forced to sail away from the battlefield.

As the supreme commander, Li Guang has already done what he can, pre-war intelligence, reconnaissance, planning, troop adjustment, supply, and so on.

As a battlefield commander, Zheng Xuechang's performance was flawless, and a series of first moves made the Naval Resistance Army gain an overwhelming advantage as soon as he made a move.

And the performance of each warship of the Naval Resistance Force is also quite good, and the firepower strikes accurately. However, in this regard, the Japanese did not perform badly at all, counterattacking artillery fire fiercely and intensively.

The battle was so fierce that in just over 10 minutes after the battle began, the Japanese army had already sunk three ships, and one of the naval resistance troops had lost its combat effectiveness. In the midst of a war situation, it is extremely difficult to grasp the overall situation, and it is already quite difficult for the captains of each warship to carry out orders and adjust the shelling targets in a timely manner. As the commander, Zheng Xuechang not only had to adjust the target in time, but also observed the movement of the enemy ship and grasped the situation, which was even more difficult.

In the first fifteen minutes of the battle, the first strike advantage of the naval resistance army was fully displayed. The advantage of the first move is already turning into a victory. By firmly grasping the initiative on the battlefield, the victory can be expanded, turned into a victory, and thus victory.

This is what Zheng Xuechang has to do. (To be continued......) (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
