"Hurry up and drop! Drop a depth charge now! "Although I was scared a lot, I had to send the arrow on the string, Iida Yanghui really didn't have the face to go back on his words, why did he have to hold on for a while, at least he had to throw the bomb out, right?" Hello! The devil sailors also knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and after receiving the order, they didn't care too much, so they used their strength to push the depth charges down the slide.

At this time, the war has begun, and there is a loud explosion and the crash of the waves everywhere, and the devil sonar has no way to track the submarine force that is sneaking. The devil sailors could only make a rough estimate, and kept pushing depth charges weighing more than 200 kilograms into the sea along the destroyer's forward path. Thump! Thump! Depth charges fell into the sea, splashing small waves.

After a few moments, I heard a dull loud noise, and then I saw the waves splashing on the sea. This wave of devils is basically a blind bombing, but it has caused a lot of trouble to the Huaxia Huben submarine detachment, and one bomb after another exploded in the sea, stirring up a powerful overpressure shock wave.

Several submarines were shaken violently, and many of Huzi's sailors were caught off guard and broke their heads and bled out, and some even broke their bones and were seriously injured, and their hulls were also greatly damaged. "Fuck it, these devil destroyers are still over!"

Huzi's No. 1 submarine was also shaken very lightly, and it gradually stabilized after a period of violent shaking, but fortunately, although this round was more dangerous than the previous one, it managed to survive. Captain Luo Faren said with a dark face: "It's too embarrassing for the military seat to be beaten passively like this, so let's just float up and fight with these dogs!" "Since there are no vertically launched torpedoes in the current era, there are no missiles launched from the water, and submarines cannot do it with their bows up, so if a submarine wants to take out a surface ship, it has to surface and launch a torpedo!

But it is obvious that it will not work at all in this broad daylight, not only is it easy to be injured by mistake when the coastal defense batteries are firing at full strength now, but the naval guns of the devil fleet are not vegetarians, and they have to be opened as soon as they emerge. "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, what are you anxious about?" Huzi glared at him fiercely, he didn't want to be happy with revenge, but as the leader of the Asian People's Liberation Army Navy, he must not act rashly.

"I guess the depth charges of the devil destroyer should also be exhausted, and our crisis should be temporarily resolved! Now we don't have to fight the devil! ”

After a pause, Huzi said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, the submarine detachment will continue to retreat to the naval base, and immediately check the hull damage and casualties. "Fire!" "Beat me hard!" "Aim and kill all these dogs!" Seeing that the devil destroyer continued to pursue and drop depth charges under artillery fire, Ou Hao was really anxious and angry, for fear that his submarine force would suffer a big loss, so he ordered the artillery to speed up and suppress the fire.

In fact, there was no need for Ou Hao to urge, the coastal defense artillery artillerymen who had already held back their strength all exerted their strength, aiming at the devil ships and firing wildly, and carrying out round after round of heavy artillery fire. Boom, boom, boom, heavy cannon shot up into the sky, constantly exploding on the sea, stirring up one after another sky-high waves.

The hard work paid off, and finally after two rounds of concentrated fire, a 305-mm coastal defense cannon took the lead in making meritorious contributions and directly hit a devil destroyer. After a shocking explosion, the devil destroyer burst into flames and billowing smoke. Immediately after, another devil destroyer was also hit hard, and smoke billowed from the violent explosion.

"Yaga! Damn the Burmese dispatch army, damn Mijiro Umezu! "The entire 500,000 Imperial Imperial Army, as well as the Imperial Air Force of the entire 2 flying divisions, fully cooperated with the operation, but not only has it not captured Rangoon so far, but on the contrary, it has fallen into a dangerous situation of being surrounded and annihilated!"

Looking at the constantly exploding sea in the sea ahead, as well as the two destroyers that were blazing, Iida Yanghui was so angry that he had the heart to kill. It is true that this Burma Theater Task Force cannot be considered weak, but it will certainly be a bloody deal to fight against the shore defense artillery with strong firepower and strong defense without the cooperation of the Air Force. However, at present, more than 300,000 imperial troops of the Burmese Dispatch Army South Road are in danger, and Umezu Mijiro has repeatedly asked for cooperation in the battle, and then the base camp also issued a support order.

Only then did Iida Yanghui have to bite the bullet and drive the fleet into Madaban Bay, and take great risks to attack the shore defense artillery and rush the defense line of the Xidang River! Iida Yanghui gritted his teeth: "The fleet immediately opened fire to cover and blew up all the Huaxia coastal defense batteries!" The destroyer immediately turned around and rushed north with the river gunboat to the north of Xidang to support the Imperial Army in the battle! "The old devil can only fight, although he is reluctant to fight with large-tonnage cruisers and battleships to storm the Xidang River defense line, but destroyers and gunboats with small tonnage and fast speed can fight.

"Hello!" "Fire!" Soon, the devil's three battleships and four cruisers opened fire one after another, firing wildly at the Burmese army's coastal defense line more than 30 kilometers away. "Haha, well done!" After fighting for a long time, I finally saw the effect, and finally didn't have to worry about the futility, Ou Hao immediately shouted: "It's better to cut off one of the ten fingers than to hurt them, first concentrate firepower to overturn these two injured devil ships for me!" ”

"Understood!" "Roger!" The two injured devil destroyers, although they can still move, their movement speed has been reduced by half by half, and it is naturally easier to fight. At this time, I naturally have to take advantage of his illness to kill him!

Soon, under the concentrated fire of the shore defense artillery group, the two devil destroyers completely turned into a pile of burning fireballs, and then a series of explosions occurred, and the entire ship was blown into two pieces and sank to the bottom of the sea at a very fast speed. Boom! However, at this moment, the devil's large-caliber gunboats spewed out tongues of fire one after another, and heavy bombs fell on the coastline one after another, and many shells also directly hit the coastal defense batteries.

In particular, the shore defense battery where Ou Hao was located was severely destroyed by the 460-mm naval guns of the battleship Yamato, and the reinforced concrete outer wall of the fort with a thickness of more than 6 meters was blasted out of a large hole, revealing the sandwich steel plate.

Ou Hao and the others inside were even more shocked, and the billowing gunpowder smoke came in and choked people extremely uncomfortable. "Ahem, ahem! The devil battleship guns of the dog day are really not vegetarian! Ou Hao shook his head a little dazed, then picked up the telescope and looked at it, only to see that the devil Yamato battleship in the farthest distance was constantly spewing out tongues of fire. Even if it is more than 30 kilometers away, the dazzling fire can still make people clearly understand that this is the world's largest caliber 460 mm naval gun.

Ou Hao gritted his teeth fiercely and said: "If you want to do it, do the biggest!" The heavy artillery of more than 280 mm was aimed at the devil's flagship Yamato battleship, and I want to see how rough and thick it is! "Yo Si! Miyasato-kun, well done! The Yamato battleship is worthy of the pride of the Yamato nation, please continue to maintain such attack strength and accuracy, it will not be long before those damn coastal defense batteries will be wiped out! ”

Through the binoculars, Takenaka clearly saw the effect of the shelling, although he could not confirm the specific effect, but he was very confident in the power of the 460 mm main gun of the Yamato battleship! Captain Miyazato Hidetoku proudly cocked his nonsense: "That's natural, the main gun of the Yamato battleship is currently the most powerful naval gun in the world, and no ship or fortification can resist her attack!" ”

It is also true that the 3 3 3-pack 9 Type 94 460 mm naval guns installed on the Yamato battleship are the largest caliber naval guns in human history, and they are also the most powerful naval guns in human history. Compared with the 406 mm caliber 50 times diameter naval guns equipped with the Iowa-class battleships of the US Navy, it is in an advantageous position in terms of armor-piercing shell weight, muzzle velocity, and firing range.

The 460-mm armor-piercing blast projectile on the battleship Yamato, with an initial velocity of more than 900 meters per second, is more powerful than the explosion of current anti-ship missiles. Hitting the deck will make the aircraft carrier lose its combat effectiveness, and a single shell is enough to cause a large surface ship of the cruiser class to be severely damaged, lose its combat effectiveness or sink, and medium-sized surface combat ships such as destroyers and frigates will be sent directly to the bottom of the sea with one shot, which shows the huge power of 460 mm shells weighing 1.5 tons.

Therefore, even if Jiang Qiangcai has made a super thick reinforcement of the fort of the shore defense artillery, if he is hit by 460 mm in a row, even if he does not directly hit the vital place and enter the soul, even if it is bombarded on the outer wall of the fort, it will not withstand a few shots! It was also thanks to the fact that the Yamato battleships did not dare to get too close, resulting in an attack distance of more than 30 kilometers, and the accuracy of the artillery bombardment was greatly reduced, otherwise the coastal defense guns around the mouth of the Xidang River would not be able to withstand the Huohuo of the Yamato battleships!

"The target is 35 kilometers away from 853 meters, the azimuth is 3 scales south-southeast, the wind speed is thirteen, and the wind direction is north-northwest!" "Repeat, the target is thirty-five kilometers away from eight hundred and fifty-three meters, the azimuth is three scales south-southeast, the wind speed is thirteen, and the wind direction is north-northwest!" "One test shot! Ready, fire! ”“……”

After receiving the order, the observers of each battery quickly calculated the specific location of the devil Yamato battleship. Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen super-large caliber shore defense guns turned their muzzles one after another, targeting the devil Yamato battleship that was firing frantically at a very distance. Boom, boom, each fort spewed out long tongues of fire one after another, and let out an earth-shattering roar, and one heavy cannon after another drew a graceful arc in the sky.

"Bagaya Road, the damn Huaxia Shore Defense Artillery has launched another concentrated fire attack!" Dazzling fires flashed, and the captain Miyazato Hidetoku suddenly became alert, and hurriedly said to Takenaka Lian: "Your Excellency Commander, it's not very safe here, please return to the command cabin immediately!" "It's okay! The Yamato battleship of the Great Japanese Empire was the most powerful battleship in the world with unrivaled defense!

Not to mention whether the Huaxia shore defense artillery can hit here from such a distance, even if a few shells can hit by luck, the Yamato battleships of the Great Japanese Empire can easily resist it. "Ripple Takenaka is on the rise, where is he willing to go back to the cabin to avoid it like this." Your Excellency Commander, Miyasato-kun's worries are not unreasonable, so please return to the command cabin as soon as possible! ”

The chief of staff of the task force, Tsukasa Nakatani, also felt very unsafe, and hurriedly helped persuade him. "Shw! Let's go! Looking at the small black dots that were flying rapidly in the distance, and listening to the palpitating cannonballs whistling from far and near, Takenaka Ren didn't dare to continue to pretend, and immediately went down the pole. Although the muzzle velocity of the shells of the coastal defense artillery is more than 900 m/s, due to the long distance of the shelling, the speed of the shells will gradually decay during the flight, and it will not be long before the flight speed will be lower than the speed of sound.

Moreover, the shell still walks in a parabola, and the sound propagation goes in a straight line, if the shelling distance is long, then the shell scream or even the sound of firing can be reached in one step, so that the attacked target has the opportunity to listen to the sound and identify the position to dodge.

"Hurry up and drop! Your Excellency, Commander, please come inside! The more Miyazato Hidetoku listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly helped Takenaka to run to the cabin. More than ten seconds later, when these old devils had just run into the cabin, the heavy artillery from afar finally landed and blossomed, and exploded wildly on the sea around the Yamato battleship, splashing huge waves that soared into the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Blind cats can also meet dead rats, not to mention that this test firing has also been carefully calculated, and a total of three heavy guns have hit the devil Yamato battleship fiercely.

Two of them hit the ship's side armor and one hit the deck armor. Three clouds of gunpowder smoke rose into the sky, and the super-decibel earth-shattering sound, the explosion overpressure shock wave, and the fragments shot out from all sides formed a storm of death. The hull side armor was blown out of two craters of different depths, and a large crater was blasted out of the deck, although it failed to blow through the deck armor, but it also caused great damage.

More than a dozen artillery members at the center of the explosion were directly blown to pieces, torn into several pieces and scattered all over the ground, and for a time the sky was full of blood and rain, and the red and white boats were all over the place. The devil soldiers who were a little farther away were lucky to survive, but they were either missing arms and legs, or they were deaf and had serious internal injuries, and they only had half a life left.

In addition, the death storm from the explosion caused considerable damage to several nearby secondary guns and hull buildings. There is no doubt that the old devils such as Ryo Takenaka, who were not far from the landing point of the shells, did not evacuate in time, and this 280-mm heavy gun could definitely take them away in a wave. I have to say that the little devil's Yamato battleship is really rough and thick-skinned, although it hits three yuan in one breath, but it only hurts the skin, if it is replaced by a destroyer, frigate, gunboat or something of a small tonnage ship, these three-point heavy guns are enough to make it either dead or disabled.

According to the design requirements of the battleship, the armor of this class of ships can withstand the shelling of its own 460 mm main gun at a distance of 20~30 kilometers, and it will not affect the battle if it is hit by 2 torpedoes or several heavy aerial bombs at the same time. The frontal shield of the ship's main turret was up to 650 mm thick, 410 mm armor on the side of the ship, and 230 mm armor on the edge of the deck.

The armor at the top of the defensive division was laid on the middle deck of the battleship and was 200-230 mm thick, and the front and rear ends of the defensive division were protected by armor 270-350 mm thick across the walls. The armor arrangement of the whole ship of the Yamato, the thickest type of armor in the entire history of battleships, the armor belt has also been strictly designed and treated, and the oblique design has greatly improved the resilience of the armor of the Yamato.

Otherwise, these three large-caliber heavy artillery guns would never have been so simple. "Baga Ya Road! Dead, dead, dead! Takenaka's pupils constricted, his legs went weak, and he panicked in his heart, looking at the terrifying scene in front of him, he almost didn't pee directly. After relieving himself, Takenaka Ripple hurriedly roared: "Miyasari-kun, quickly order the Yamato ship to withdraw from the battle!" ”

Takeaka Ripple really can't afford to wave, and the Yamato battleship is the spiritual symbol of the entire Japanese Yamato nation, and there must be no mistakes. Otherwise, even if you play a good record, it will be a black pot that you can't bear, and if you don't do it, not only will the future end, but you will also have to commit suicide to apologize for its crimes! "Hello!" Miyazato Hidede hurriedly nodded and took the order, he was scared enough just now, just more than ten seconds away, he had to be blown to pieces, turning into a pile of minced meat that his mother couldn't recognize when she came!

It is really no joke that the Huaxia coastal defense artillery can hit so far and the accuracy of the shelling is so high. It's a great loss for the fleet to go down like this! In addition, the devil fleet is most worried that the Huaxia Air Force will come to make trouble, in which case the consequences will be even more unimaginable. Although it seems that the Huaxia Air Force is currently inseparable from the Japanese Air Force, and has no time to take care of ground targets, it is not afraid of 10,000 just in case!

Yes, if it is caught as a model, the Yamato battleship will really not die and will have to shed its skin. Thinking of this, Miyazato Hidetoku hurriedly ran to the command platform and hurriedly gave the order to retreat. At the same time, the other ships of the devil's fleet did not stop, they all opened fire, and carried out crazy shelling of the coastal defense line! Boom! One after another, large-caliber naval guns fell like a torrential rain, exploding clouds of gunpowder smoke on the coastline, and coastal fortifications and artillery batteries everywhere were once again subjected to high-intensity saturation bombardment in an instant.

Under a series of earth-shattering explosions, the coastal defense line and coastal defense batteries of the Huaxia Huben Army were severely tested, and many of the batteries were directly hit, causing very serious injuries, and the officers and men of the Huben in the forts were killed and wounded.

However, all the officers and men of the coastal defense force did not flinch at all, and bravely and fearlessly returned fire in the face of the devil's naval guns and artillery bombardment. It's just that due to the absence of a precision guidance system, it is difficult for shore defense artillery to directly hit and sink naval ships of tonnage at a distance of tens of kilometers. However, these large-caliber coastal defense batteries with rough skin and thick flesh are really not vegetarian, not only have extremely high defensive power, but also have extremely strong lethality, and once they hit the vital point, they are still quite deadly.

The little devil fleet didn't dare to get too close at all, but only dared to cruise far away on the sea to bombard! After nearly two hours of bloody fighting, the coastal defense units successively achieved remarkable results, knocking out two cruisers and one battleship into smoke. The three devil warships were all in flames, billowing black smoke into the sky, rushing left and right on the sea, like wounded beasts desperately hiding in Tibet.

In addition, the rest of the devil warships were more or less hit by shells and suffered a lot of damage. At the cost of their own side, nearly half of more than 30 forts were destroyed, and more than 400 casualties were lost! "Baga Ya Road! Dead, dead, dead! Order the fleet to immediately withdraw from the battle! "The devil task force frantically fought for more than an hour, but it still couldn't completely defeat the dumb tiger army's shore defense artillery, but its own side paid a heavy price one after another.

Not only were 3 submarines and 2 destroyers destroyed, but 2 cruisers and 1 battleship were severely damaged, and the carrier-based aircraft groups involved in air battles and ground bombardment were almost completely destroyed. Therefore, although the commander of the devil's fleet, Takenaka Lian, saw that the coastal fire resistance of the Chinese army had weakened a lot, and nearly half of the coastal defense batteries were dumbfounded, it seemed that victory was already in sight.

However, for the Navy's task force, the gains outweigh the losses, and at present the Japanese Air Force is still unable to firmly grasp air supremacy, and even after several hours of fierce air battles, the Devil Air Force has begun to gradually gain the upper hand. Takenaka was really worried that once the Huaxia Air Force freed up, they would choose to concentrate superior forces to bomb the naval fleet, and at that time, even if they wanted to, it would be too late.

As the saying goes, friends of the dead do not die in the poor way, so after some weighing, Takenaka finally decided to withdraw from the battle and return to a safe place to rest. As for whether the Burmese army in the bitter battle can turn defeat into victory or escape and ascend to heaven, Takenaka Ren can't care about it now. In any case, the naval task force fought for more than two hours, and was armed with carrier-based aircraft, as well as four destroyers and six gunboats, to forcibly break into the Sitang River to participate in the ground battle.

Therefore, Takenaka has enough reason to convince himself that today the task force is already "benevolent and righteous", and it is time to retreat bravely. Soon, after receiving the order, the devil's fleet retreated with all its strength, and on the way to retreat, it did not forget to continue to fire frantically at the coastal defense line to suppress and retaliate.

However, having said that, the Devil's Task Force did not work in vain today, not only containing the fire of the coastal defense artillery and inflicting heavy casualties on the Huaxia Huben coastal defense troops, but also making it impossible for the coastal defense artillery to support the ground forces of the Chinese Expeditionary Force in the fierce battles in the vicinity of Bago and Wozhen. At the same time, the Devil's carrier-based aircraft group has caused serious casualties to the Huaxia ground armored forces, and the Devil's destroyers and gunboats that took advantage of the chaos to break into the Xidang River are playing a big role at this moment!

"The little devil fleet of dog days is about to escape, and after only an hour and a half of fighting, the devil fleet will admit it? Damn, don't run! Haha" Seeing that the devil fleet began to retreat in a hurry and ran into the distance, Ou Hao was stunned for a moment and then shouted again: "Pass my order, all the batteries hurry up and speed up for me, boom, since these devil ships are here, they want to leave without leaving anything, how can they be worthy of the dead brothers!" Fuck hard! ”

It was not easy to have such an opportunity to make a contribution, and he didn't want to just lift it up and put it down gently. "Brothers! The little devil fleet ran away with its tail between its legs, and quickly beat the water dogs! "Fuck it! Hit me hard! ”

"Quick, fire! Don't let the dog run away! "Rise up and chase after the poor, the artillery of the coastal defense force is also thinking the same way, at this time everyone is red-eyed, eager to shoot all the shells and sink all the devil ships! Boom, boom, all the batteries erupted one after another, and heavy cannons continued to rise into the sky, and a moment later, huge waves exploded on the sea around the devil's fleet.

The devil's fleet was in danger again, and the two cruisers were also directly hit by the hull deck armor, and a big hole was blown out, which made the devil sailors scream! "Hurry up and shoot!" The "Dead, Dead, Dead" devil fleet is really crazy, crazy to speed up and escape, crazy to shoot back. Soon, a heavy shot of naval guns streaked across the sky, and landed heavily on the coastal defense line, exploding clouds of gunpowder smoke that soared into the sky.
