The messenger conveyed, and Yuan Feng immediately changed his words: "No, tell them, get out of the way and shoot." ”

Before the words fell, the intelligence staff officer shouted again: "The enemy fleet has turned!" The course was changed to

"What about speed?"

"Verse 26, it hasn't changed."

Yuan Feng let out a gorgeous cruel smile: "Chasing, an hour to shrink close to two nautical miles, and in another two or three hours, those rabbit cubs will not have time to cry." ”

"Do you want to change the column to a horizontal line? If you chase after the tail, the front main gun of the Lightning will be blocked by the ship. The Chief Operations Staff spoke again.

Yuan Feng responded without hesitation: "Change." ”

I don't know whether they did not receive the telegram from the "Thunderbolt" or deliberately ignored it, and threw bombs and strafed them.

Yuan Feng, who witnessed this tragic situation, couldn't help but scold: "you XX, I don't know what Lu Dao is for!" Order, hit the signal flare, tell those wastes to get out of the way immediately, and don't blame Lao Tzu for being ruthless! ”

As soon as he finished scolding, another report came from the firing command post: preparations for the second test launch were completed.

Yuan Feng's eyes widened: "Call me." ”

After the third test firing, the impact point of the bomb was close to within 300 meters of the target, but Yuan Feng was not satisfied, and squeezed out a face that was ready to cut people at any time, and the draft was so murderous that everyone seemed to be gritting their teeth, eager to swallow the enemy ship that looked like a bunch of small black dots at this time into their stomachs in one go.

"The main cannon of the Lightning has been fired!" At the same time as the observer reported, he saw that the light gray main turret in front of the Thunderbolt in the left rear trembled slightly, and the muzzle of the black hole suddenly erupted two orange flames. The gray smoke that came out of the ground instantly covered the entire forward deck, and for a while, the 210-meter-long steel giant ship seemed to have jumped into the clouds of the fairy world, flying through the clouds and waves......

In less than half a minute, two towering green water columns leaped into the sky, and the large water mist formed when the water columns fell almost completely covered the rearward ships in the enemy fleet—

A minute later, the Lightning reported to the flagship by light communication that the impact point had landed 100 to 150 meters behind the left side of the target.

Yuan Feng excitedly tugged the snow-white gloves on his right hand: "Order, thunder and thunder together, prepare for a salvo of the main cannon in the front!" The target - the rear ship of the enemy fleet. ”

At this time, a second wave of aircraft from this team flew over the battlefield. Probably having received Yuan Feng's warning earlier, he did not immediately rush to the enemy fleet, but first circled around Yuan Feng's troops.

"Report, the headquarters of the 3rd Air Force in the air requested a moratorium on the shelling and let them launch a torpedo attack first."

Hearing the messenger's announcement, Yuan Feng narrowed his fat eyes and muttered in a low voice: "Joke, when did the water machine unit start playing lightning strikes?" ”

"It's a special small torpedo of 356 caliber, which can't hit a large warship, and can barely deal with light cruisers. It mainly plays a role in disrupting and blocking ...... "The aviation staff officer who did not know when he returned to the bridge said to Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng scoffed: "There's no need for these noisy flies to mix blindly, it's late May." The days in the Bay of Alaska are much longer than the nights, and it will be no problem to chase for another five or six hours, and when the time comes, it will be close to 10,000 yards, and if I can't kill those few little miscellaneous pieces, I will jump from here immediately! ”

The aviation staff officer was not so easy to retreat: "There are many dreams at night, I can't be sure what will happen in the middle, we are now a giant ship chasing small fish, and the cannon is fighting mosquitoes, so it is not so easy to solve." Now suspend a few shellings, let the aviation units go over and release torpedoes, forcing the opponent to turn to evade. We can't run all the way in a straight line, we can get closer to each other faster. Besides, if you get closer to a section and then fight, you should be more sure of hitting. Now this distance is a lot of luck. Not to mention wasting shells, if you miss a long shot, it may also affect morale......"

Yuan Feng blinked and thought: "This is reasonable. Just do as you say, if you go and send a telegram back to the aviation unit, you will say that we will suspend the shelling for 30 minutes and let them delay the other side as much as possible. Order--The whole team will stop shelling for 30 minutes, and all ships will aim at their positions and stand by! ”

After receiving the reply from the "Zhenlei," the 12 SJ-5_ "Zhenlei" squadrons from the "Sea Hawk" and "Falcon" water aircraft carriers of the Third Air Force easily caught up with the enemy fleet with their airspeed.

"The fierce sea and air combat lasted for more than ten minutes, and almost every minute, a small torpedo of 356 millimeters jumped away from the clumsy shape of the ground carrier aircraft with three large and small floating boats, and rushed towards a certain high-speed enemy ship within 1,000 meters - the pilots who broke through to this distance could already clearly see the small star-striped flags fluttering on the top of the opponent's mast, as well as the blue pot-lid-shaped steel helmets that were shaking wildly behind the frantically shining anti-aircraft muzzles......"

"A seagull has approached the limit of ultra-low-altitude flight - the main pontoon boat under the fuselage sweeps the sea from time to time, the torpedo hanging at the root of the left wing has not had time to get out of the pylon, a string of large-caliber machine shells hit the nose, the nose rushes down sharply, and in the blink of an eye, the tail of the plane is raised high, and the whole plane makes a 180-degree turn, smashes heavily into the sea, and suddenly shatters into a pile of broken wood chips, and floats out messily......"

——From "The History of the Third Air Force of the Navy"

In the first lightning strike operation carried out by the Imperial Seaplane Force, 2 seagulls were shot and fell into the sea before switching to mines, 1 caught fire and exploded in the air after dropping mines, 3 fell into the sea with smoke, and the 9 pilots under Lieutenant Lu Lin, the leader of the 202nd Marine Reconnaissance Squadron, were killed on the spot - their sacrifices were not in vain, and among the 10 torpedoes dropped by the attack team, 1 hit the leading big ship, and 1 hit the small ship behind the palace, the former immediately reduced its speed, and the latter struggled for a while, quickly lost power, and collapsed on the sea like a dead fish. The other 3 small ships were delayed for a while in order to circumvent .: .

Yuan Feng witnessed this tragic scene on the Thunder, couldn't help but burst into tears, straightened up at the moment, held back his strength, and saluted the remnants of the attack team in the distance, and said in pieces: "Take care, you must return smoothly, I want to say again that you are waste, I am not a fucking human, and let the dog eat my heart and lungs." ”
