Chapter048 You'd Expect It!

At 4:25 a.m., all the battleships entered their predetermined positions.

Under the observation of the ship's wives, the main fleet of the sirens kept sailing in a straight line without knowing it.

Unbeknownst to them, dozens of main guns of various calibers and a large number of torpedo tubes were aimed at them to complete their aiming.

With Mio Habara giving an order from the flagship Amagi, the battle began.

According to the battle plan, the main fleet of the sirens was divided by the release of torpedoes by destroyers.

The destroyers, who had been ready for a long time, fired the torpedoes that had already been filled in their torpedo tubes in the direction of the sirens, and the thick metal rods weighing several tons were submerged into the sea from the side of the destroyer, and then rushed straight in the direction of the siren fleet with a trail of wake.

The rest of the shipwives did not fire, but waited anxiously for the results of the torpedo attack.

Torpedo attack can be said to be a very special type of attack.

Attacking a Siren with a torpedo will not be detected by the Siren as if it were a direct cannon.

So the shipwives came to the side of the siren fleet and threw torpedoes, like hidden assassins, attacking them unprepared.

At this time, if the cannon is fired, the meaning of the surprise attack is lost-because once the fire is fired, the sirens will enter the attack mode, and it is inevitable that they will immediately adjust their course, so that the torpedo attack will be outrageously crooked, which is equivalent to no effect.

Theoretically, at this time, the idea that the other warships in Habara's fleet would not attack was correct.

Wang Yu and Anna waited together for the results of the torpedo attack.

Torpedoes are not completely stealthy attacks, and sirens are not soft-footed shrimp that are at the mercy of torpedo attacks.

So when the torpedo approached a few kilometers away from the sirens, they were spotted by the sirens on the periphery of the fleet.

The huge main fleet of sirens immediately began to maneuver evasively over the sea.

The Siren battleship's calculation ability is extremely good, basically the moment after the torpedo is found, it can determine the course speed of the torpedo, and according to its own maneuverability, the best means of evasion, even if it is judged that there is no possibility of evasion, it must eat the mine, and will try to choose the place on the battleship that is hit by the torpedo with the least damage to receive the torpedo.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Due to the problem of visibility at night, Wang Yu could not see the situation of siren evasion.

So he set his sights on Anna, who knew these things.

Unexpectedly, Anna showed a crying and laughing expression at this moment.

Wang Yu subconsciously glanced in the general direction of the siren fleet, but did not see the fire of the torpedo hit.

Could it be that Anna's expression was because the torpedo missed?

"Commander, none of the torpedo attacks hit."

Anna finally reported.

Wang Yu was shocked.

It was a total of nearly 50 torpedoes released by six destroyers, and I relied on the advantage of surprise to hit that siren fleet with a stable course speed, but I didn't expect to miss even a single shot.

This siren dodges the level of torpedoes...... It's so powerful?!

It's on par with the previous world, and it seems that it is necessary for me to adjust my assessment of the level of the sirens in this world......

"Commander, the reason why they didn't get a hit was because they ...... when they released the torpedo"

Anna added at this time: "Well, there is no prediction. ”

Wang Yu was stunned for a moment, and his complicated thoughts stopped running at this moment: "Clams? Didn't predict? ”

"Yes, they were all torpedoes released according to the course and speed of the sirens."

Wang Yu didn't react until half a second later, what did he mean by this-, did he feel that when these destroyers were using torpedoes, they didn't even bother to predict the possible maneuver of the sirens?

Little girls, you are right to calculate the trajectory of the torpedo attack accurately......

But why don't you release the anticipatory thunder of the siren's evasion!

What is the way to throw the thunder out according to the white line and expect to hit it with fate?

Wang Yu instantly recalled his chat with a destroyer commander in the previous world.

The destroyer commander is the one who twisted his body with the gun barrel of the destroyer mentioned earlier, don't look like a pervert, but he has a hand in commanding the battleship's combat skills, this guy is a rare lightning strike expert in the coalition government naval fleet, and his destroyer sank more than 100,000 tons of sirens by torpedoes.

At that time, he confidently told Wang Yu a trick, that is, when minecharging the siren fleet, he would generally not judge the direction of the lightning strike according to the current maneuver of the siren, but should use the speed and course of the target at that time as the basis, scatter a wave of internal cut mines, and then scatter a wave of external cut mines, if possible, let other warships do the same, and at the same time adjust the spacing between torpedoes, so that the siren battleship can be blocked by torpedoes no matter what kind of evasive posture.

Wang Yu had an embarrassed but polite smile on his face at the time.

Unlike regular cruisers, the Annapolis did not have any torpedo launchers, so when the destroyer commander told him about his experience and skills, Wang Yu felt like the cow in the story of playing the piano to the cow.

I wonder if you're telling me these tricks are useless.

But at that time, Wang Yu definitely didn't expect that after coming to another world, he actually hoped that those destroyer girls would know this little trick.

In fact...... This can be regarded as a subtle misunderstanding between him and Anna.

It's not that these destroyers don't know how to spread prejudgment mines, but there are mainly some other reasons.

The target of the torpedo attack is a fleet, not a certain siren battleship, so theoretically a wave of completely unpredictable torpedoes can at least hit a certain siren warship in that fleet, but it is not considered that the siren fleet itself is relatively loosely formed, and there is enough evasion space between the warships, plus those siren warships are really well hidden, so they failed to get a hit.

There is another reason, that is, the request given to the destroyer by Mio Habara is that the torpedo attack is mainly to disrupt the fleet and create an advantage for the subsequent battle, simply put, to use the torpedo to force the siren to move according to Mio Hahara's idea.

So in line with this principle, the simple destroyer girls naturally chose the simplest way of attack.

It's just that in Wang Yu's opinion, the battle damage is more important.

Although it was a pity that they were not able to sink a Siren ship with torpedoes first, the main goal of releasing the torpedoes was indeed successful - by torpedo attacks to force the Sirens to evade, they succeeded in dividing the Sirens' fleet.

According to Anna's description, Wang Yu also understood the current situation on the sea.

Now part of the originally neat siren fleet turned the bow to this side, part of it was facing the other side, and some of it kept its original course, and for a time the originally neat formation was in chaos.

And because the ships themselves are moving at high speed and are difficult to adjust as quickly as vehicles, it will be difficult for the Siren fleet to regain its original formation for a period of time.

In the current situation, even if the battle begins, the sirens will not be able to exert all their firepower at the first time, but Mio Hawara's fleet, which is ready for battle, can have the effect of gathering fire to expand the battle damage in a short time.

Now that the purpose of the torpedo attack has been achieved, it is time to start the official attack.

And as if to echo his thoughts, Mio Hahara's capital ship finally fired,

In the distant night, the fire of naval gun fire suddenly flashed, it was the Amagi battlecruiser, the largest in Habara Mio's fleet, and the 410mm guns were the first to roar, and ten armor-piercing shells broke through the air towards a siren capital ship.

Then, the other two capital ships, King Kong and Prince Eugen, joined the artillery battle almost simultaneously.
