Chapter 922 shocked the world

The shells had already reached their target by the time the submarine received the order, and then exploded with the frightened shouts of the soldiers on the battleship.

Columns of water rose into the sky, and several warships were immediately obscured by the mist.

"Left full rudder!!"

Almost at the same time, all the battleships shouted the same order, they had to leave the area, the dense shells were oh trifle, the point was that there was a direct straddle shot, and there were battleships already under fire.

This shows that the enemy's aiming is accurate to the battleship itself, and it is just luck that most of it does not fall on the battleship, and I am afraid that the next round will suffer heavy losses.

Its turning movement was not slow, and the battleship, which was already moving at a speed of 10 knots, began to withdraw at full speed.

But the firing speed of the shore guns is much faster than that of the naval guns, and there is no need to worry about hurting the base frequently, it is a full-load shelling, which is not much worse than fire control.

The accurate ranging of the radar was fed back to the ten groups of artillery one by one, and each group of ten guns, after the first round of covering firing, immediately unified the elements, and the effective firing roared.

A group of ten guns, each aimed at a battleship, trying to take one round at a time, so that the battleship would not escape with injuries.

The shells in Putian roared, and the battleships that had just begun to turn were booming continuously. A destroyer had just turned about five degrees, and the moment the shell fell, the battleship sank suddenly, and then bounced high, and in the loud bang, the waist was broken into two, and the middle was high and bulging, and then it stuck to the sea with the stern of the ship, and disappeared in an instant.

Six of the ten armor-piercing shells hit, quite close, each shell was only a few meters apart, at the moment of drilling into the bottom compartment, into the boiler compartment, into the ammunition compartment. Almost simultaneously, it exploded, and the enormous destructive force of the explosion immediately broke the destroyer and sank it with one blow.

Even if he was unlucky, the first one was blown and sunk, and the crew was taken to the bottom of the sea by the battleship, and it was estimated that it would take a while for some corpses to float up.

None of the ten targeted battleships survived. Fires broke out one after another, and the fire was difficult to control, and the hull was tilted to load, and the cavity bubbles were not spared. Only the cruiser Oakland was hit by four bullets, and although it caught fire, its speed had increased to fifteen knots, and it was still accelerating.

It's a pity that the Oakland isn't as solid as the Texas, although the four bullets don't have all the key points. But a large hole torn open by a shell on the side of the side of the seawater is pouring into it frantically, and the slowdown is certain.

Besides, the shells he had run there were already aimed at him, so don't expect to escape.

Sure enough, in addition to the guns of the destroyer that was sunk by the explosion, the other nine groups flew in another round of shells, which were still armor-piercing. It's still a potent shot.

With a loud bang, the other eight ships slowed down. Although the destructive force of the explosion did not hit the ammunition compartment, the unit was shot, and the stern and capital of the ship were shot one after another, and even two or three holes appeared in the side side, and the fire rose even more violently. Fighting fires has become a luxury.

The crew did not hold on any longer, and those who were not killed by the bombing put down their lifeboats and fled for their lives. They knew that the battleship would explode in a few minutes at most.

And the Oakland's luck ran out, and the group of guns that sank the destroyer was still after they finished firing, and the shells had not yet fallen. Then a cannonball was fired at him.

The radar crew calculated that it was too fast for him to escape, so twenty guns were aimed at it again, trying to sink it in one fell swoop.

The explosion slowed down the Oakland, and then the ammunition bay was detonated, and there was a loud bang, and the flames tumbled, and the whole ship did not blow up, but the flames enveloped the whole ship. There were probably more than four hundred dead on board, but there was no chance to leave, and the flames erupting from it made it a luxury for the soldiers to even flee for their lives, screaming in the flames, and then being engulfed in flames.

On the artillery position, the soldiers did not know the result of the road, they just waited for the coordinates of the radar, and then opened fire as fast as possible, not knowing whether the road itself had sunk the battleship.

The reason why armor-piercing shells were used in the first two rounds was actually because the speed of the ship was not fast and the shell hit rate was high, so armor-piercing shells would be used to shoot and strive to sink the battleship as quickly as possible.

And then after the radar was given to a new target, the shells were replaced with high-explosive shells, two armor-piercing shells, and eight high-explosive shells, so that there was no need to worry about the high-speed movement of the enemy ship.

Those battleships that were not bombarded were horrified, the enemy's shelling was so accurate, you love to pay for nothing, the number of guns is at least 100, but it is not as simple as the main and auxiliary guns of the battleship, and they are all heavy guns of one caliber, although they are not like giant cannons of more than 300 calibers, but the power of armor-piercing shells is enough to make them frightened.

In two rounds, ten battleships were about to sink, and there was no hope of rescue, and they looked at the soldiers who put down the lifeboats or jumped directly into the water, and they couldn't help them.

This is not a naval battle, a naval battle can also put up a white flag to withdraw from the battle, or humanitarian rescue, but this is a shore artillery, which is simply a long-distance bombardment, and the battleship cannot be seen, so the soldiers who fell into the water can only ask for more blessings, they have to leave here first, and then discuss humanitarian rescue.

But how could they possibly leave?

At the moment when they reached a speed of more than fifteen knots, the screech of cannonballs suddenly sounded, and the target was the moving battleship.

How did they lock on to their target so quickly!?

All the captains and crews came up with the same idea, where could it be thought that this was radar ranging? If it's fire control, it's a few seconds faster than that.

They did not dare to be careless, and ordered the battleship to go at full speed, ignore the shells, and let the shells miss as fast as possible, so that they could escape and ascend to the sky.

In the scream, the side of a light destroyer collapsed suddenly, and a large pit appeared on the side side, and then the destroyer's hull was crooked, and everyone on the battleship was about to fall under this crookedness, but before the body moved like a deck, the sea suddenly bulged, and the battleship suddenly lifted up, several meters above the sea.

Rumble!

With an earth-shattering bang, a column of water broke through the steamed bun-shaped water surface and rushed into the air.

The inclined destroyer jerked to the other side, and in the huge earthquake, even the anti-aircraft guns were thrown into the sea. The deck was immediately clean, the waves had not yet fallen, and there was not a single person left on the deck.

This time the shaking was more than thirty degrees, and the destroyer could not shake it back again, and at the moment when the waves of several tons fell from the sky, it cut off the chance that it was coming back, and boomed. A wave of sea was raised, and the battleship capsized, and in just a few seconds, the bottom of the battleship leaked out, completely turning over.

The frigate next to him was not as lucky as him, at the same time as he capsized. The same roar erupted on the side and on the battleship.

The side was concentrated by six high-explosive shells, all of which exploded two meters below the water, clinging to the side of the ship, and a large hole was also made in the side side, and an armor-piercing shell hit the stern.

But these will not let it sink, and the real destruction is the destructive power of the six that exploded in the water next to the side of the side.

As we all know, the tension of the sea will gather the pressure, and all the pressure will be applied to the side at close range. A huge hole was opened directly there, and the moment the pressure disappeared. A large whirlpool appeared at the seawater, which poured into it frantically, and at the moment when it shook violently, the seawater directly overturned it, and before it capsized, it quickly poured into the cabin, and at the moment when the battleship fell. Directly sideways to the bottom of the sea.

This round of shelling prevented none of the remaining dozen or so warships from running, and the waves were raging. It is simply impossible to sail. Watching the battleships sink or stop, not being shelled, but the speed of the ship has dropped again and again, several warships are desperately trying to get out of the area. They all thought that the caliber of the other party's artillery had exceeded four hundred, otherwise it would not have been so powerful.

You must know that Lu Dao is a light destroyer. A single cannon of 300 caliber cannot be directly sunk, unless it is 360 or higher, so that a single shot can tear a battleship apart, and a huge wave alone can overturn a battleship.

And the potency shot is exactly that effect. Even if the ship did not sink, all the people would be dizzy and lose the ability to control the battleship in the earthquake, and the second round of shelling may be the end of their lives.

At the beginning of the first round of shelling, Han Lie did not wait for the shelling to end, after he finished reporting and obtained Dong Ku's consent, he contacted the submarine, and then ordered an attack.

Outside the harbor, at this time, the situation of the battleship in Havana everyone did not know much, they did not know that the Dao Mariel and Matanzas would also be attacked, they saw that the harbor was in flames, and the battleships either rushed forward one by one, or crashed into the dock, and even the giant Texas was floating there and no one cared, the roaring explosion, the smoke was billowing out, and the fighters had no own people, they knew that Havana had fallen, even if the enemy had not entered the city now, it would not be too long.

So, at the moment when the enemy planes departed, they fled out of the city, to Mariel or Matanzas, preparing to flee Cuba by boat from there.

They were right, but alas, it was too late. Not to mention whether there were ships there or not is one thing, Dangun, already encircled and launched an attack.

The speed of the attack was extraordinarily fast, and the political axe army, which had lost its fighting spirit, lost its position in one round of effective shots and fled in all directions.

Without the assistance of helicopters, self-propelled artillery took on the task of attacking fortifications, and with the routine of dealing with the Japanese, the torrent of steel was still rolling unstoppable.

The army did not have any resistance, anti-aircraft machine guns, tank guns were rarely used, as long as the political axe army heard that the guns were not killed, they immediately surrendered.

They had seen their comrades with their guns raised, even if the steel beast drove by, ignoring them. This shows that surrender really does not kill.

This is a transmission that is worse than the plague, and more and more political axe troops raised their guns and stood aside, waiting for reorganization. They have realized that fighting, they have nothing left but death.

At the beginning of the attack, the Huya warriors led by Dong Ku and the Huya warriors who had been lurking in rushed to various important locations. Those are all depots, oil depots, repair shops......

Cuba has not been as backward as it has been in later generations, and it has become a country that has come and gone without a trace, and even fishing is backward.

Dong Ku wants to change these things and change the hegemony of the United States. He is not a noble man, and although he is unwilling to agitate the country, it does not mean that he does not get these countries in his hands and keep them away from the shackles of the United States.

Their assault went unexpectedly well, and Havana was already in chaos, where else did anyone care? The Americans are not as ruthless as the Japanese, they did not arrange to blow up these important supplies, and they are still confident that they will be able to fight back.

Dong Ku didn't care about those, he guarded one important node after another, waiting for the army to enter the city.

Han Lie's speed was extremely fast, and his mechanized troops almost drove directly into Havana, more than ten kilometers, and it only took twenty minutes for the army to rush into Havana.

However, the infantry entered the city a little slower. did not rush into the city immediately after. They went all over the mountains to arrest the wealthy merchants who had escaped, collected the wealth they carried, shot them directly, and buried them on the spot.

On the contrary, it is the civilians who have been through too much fighting and are already fleeing. They are all hiding at home and waiting for the sky to change, whoever governs, they are all poor people, and there is nothing to grab.

Dong Ku waited for armored vehicles and infantry vehicles at one of the largest oil depots, and then the soldiers in the infantry vehicles surrounded the oil depot.

He will feel relaxed, the battle seems to be a little too simple, there is not even suspense, the American army surrendered faster than the Cuban political axe army, they only need to shout along the way to surrender their guns and not kill, a little counter-resistance is killed. The rest surrendered at once.

That's the effect of swapping back those captives before, and it came into play at this moment. The U.S. military already knew that the Independence Army did not kill prisoners, and the treatment was not bad. Some of them have been taken prisoner before, and this will be just a second surrender.

Resistance, almost gone. They all knew that the failure of the battleship to bombard the enemy showed that the battleship had been more than lucky. They could hear a loud bang on the sea, a violent explosion that only a martyr could have.

They didn't know how the Lu Dao warship was attacked by the other party, but they all knew the Lu Dao. Surrender is the best policy, and you can live.

Five and Zuo Boyang rushed to the seat of Batitas with thirty Huya warriors with Dong Ku. It's not under control, and it's time to get there.

There was no need for Dong Ku to ask about the prisoners, and when they met with Marshall and the 100,000 or so American troops, they would know that they were not the first to be captured. It's not the highest level, so there's no need for interrogation or anything, and Dong Ku doesn't need their confessions.

By this time, Connatas had already taken a transport plane to Havana. It is expected to arrive after dark. He will be a pig's foot here, and Dong Ku will not stand up to attract the wrath of the United States.

When they arrived at Batitas's residence, the warriors quickly followed Batitas's instructions to find out his wealth, which had not been taken away by the guards.

Dong Ku looked around the official residence, and then ordered to inquire about the situation of the battleship.

Soon, the Seawolf 69 sent a message, and only two destroyers were damaged and left at a speed of about sixteen knots. A series of explosions occurred inside the burning aircraft carrier, and finally exploded and sank to the bottom. But I don't know which aircraft carrier it is.

Not counting the remaining sunken, there are still seven battleships floating on the sea that have become iron coffins, and the fire has not been extinguished, and it is unknown whether there will be a martyrdom. Five more capsized, and the rest are missing. But none of them fled, at least not to him.

It's good that you didn't run......

Dong Ku pondered for a moment, and then ordered, ordering Han Lie to find a ship that could leave the port, and strangle those who might be alive on the sea, leaving no one behind.

These people are a threat, and no less American fighting power. The navy, like the air force, cannot become a climate without a long period of training, and warships can be built in a few months, but the navy and pilots cannot be trained in a few months, at least they will not become skilled in a short period of time.

As the army swarmed into the city, trucks unpacked the artillery positions and went to haul the artillery there and relocate them to fend off the anger of the Americans.

Holguin, the cannon was also towed, and he hurried to Havana without stopping along the way. There are also two ports of Mariel and Matanzas that need to be guarded.

Two hours later, when it got dark, everything was in place. The army deployed defenses to attack the periphery, and when the independent army arrived, it had already advanced rapidly to the periphery, and it was expected that in the middle of the night, the perimeter could be taken, and the whole territory could be taken early tomorrow morning.

Dong Ku and Zuo Boyang didn't care about the battle anymore, and they were studying and writing a telegram, which was a telegram for the independence of the Cuban regime.

With more than 100,000 U.S. troops in his hands, he was not at all worried that Roosevelt would be in a hurry. He had at least two months to defend on a high foundation, and he was not worried about the attack of the American army, because the American army had no chance to attack.

The great changes in Cuba have already reached the United States, but they really don't have the ability to counterattack immediately. I don't know what happened to the army now, the sinking of the Enterprise, the destruction of the fleet there, all of which dealt a heavy blow to the United States.

Roosevelt was outraged, but he still couldn't understand how Cuba's Independence Army was so powerful. Except for hearing that the advance army was powerful, he didn't care about the combat effectiveness of other countries, even if Germany would be strong.

But will he be able to rally his army and attack again? Leave Japan alone and clean up Cuba with all your might? Then the Pacific Ocean will be completely lost, and I am afraid that Hawaii will be captured by Japan.

Now that Japan has conquered Sumatra and conquered the Philippines, there is no shortage of oil, and its strength is growing at a terrible rate, and the army in Thailand has been rescued, and they are increasing their troops in the Indian Gulf, preparing to rescue the army there.

This is a headache, and Cuba is the southern gate of great interests, and there must be no loss. The Pacific Ocean is the lifeblood of America's rise and cannot be lost.

Because of this, after receiving the news that the independence army had swept through the entire territory of Cuba, high-level research became a war of words. I couldn't come up with an idea until midnight.

At this moment, an electric power rang out from the entire world.

The content is that Cuba has declared independence, politically and militarily, and is no longer subject to interference from other countries. All troops that have landed in Cuba are aggression and will be dealt a heavy blow by the Cuban Independence Army.

In the announcement, the message was also conveyed, that is, Batitas was out of power and no longer in power, the new Cuban government was controlled by Connatas, and the country was officially named the Republic of Cuba.

The news immediately detonated all eyeballs. Everyone knows that Cuba is a puppet regime supported by the United States, and what does it mean that the puppet was overthrown, but the master did not make a statement after the power was turned on? It shows that the master has not made a good profit, so it seems that the combat effectiveness of the Cuban Independence Army is also beyond imagination. Is the United States a soft persimmon?

The name of the Cuban Independence Army (PAPA) was immediately known to the world. This is a unit that dares to challenge the giants, and they are not afraid of the thunder and wrath of the United States? Will they be able to hold on to Cuba, and will it be recaptured by the United States soon?

This telegram successfully dragged most of the world's attention from Europe, where the battle was in full swing, and everyone knew that the United States would decide the direction of this war, so they paid special attention to the changes here.

But no one expected that the changes in the United States would surprise everyone. (To be continued......)
