Chapter 63
The guides of the silkworm missiles were "flying" the missiles in the air warships flanked by the US Navy surface ships. Faced with the fire nets ejected from the Japanese Navy Knight-class air defense warships, these missile guides had to use their full-body solutions.
"Team a climbed with me, Team b attacked the air defense ship, Team c..."
Amid the squad leader's shouts, the missiles attacking the main fleet of the Japanese Navy showed "escape in all directions" when facing the rain of bullets.
"These courageless Americans..."
When the gunners on the Ganjiang-class warship saw these scenes from the bulletproof sights with rulers, the serious expressions on their faces became relaxed.
These ammunition and gun integrated systems use 25mm 4-barrel machine guns, and these gun barrels are installed on both sides of the spherical control compartment. The launch tubes above the gun barrel are equipped with anti-aircraft rockets. Whether it is artillery or anti-aircraft rockets, they can be replenished by ammunition hands in the ammunition room under the deck.
According to the Japanese Navy, the control team of the air defense module is organized into three people. All three are trained in shooting. If the gunners are killed, the ammunition hands can fill their positions at any time. As for the ammunition hands, any work that any sailor on the warship can complete.
As shooters, you don’t need to worry about their safety. In addition to almost a window-sized sight in front of you, the entire control bay is protected by armor. There are also "angular bracket-shaped" bulletproof armor to protect the artillery and rocket launching devices. What the shooter needs to do is sit in the ball control bay. Use the pedal under his feet to control horizontal movement, and the joystick in his hands to control the longitudinal movement of the anti-aircraft gun.
According to the direction from the headphones, put the aircraft in the sky into the division of sights. This is not a complicated task, and high-intensity training also makes them solidify this work into an instinctive reaction in life.
"Look at where these Americans' missiles are running..."
Stepping on the pedal under his feet, the joystick in his hand quickly pulled back, and the entire ring-shaped shooting cabin immediately became "backward" and the shooter, who was fixed on the seat by the seat belt, was almost half lying in the chair at this time. He could see the artillery fire he fired interrupting the route of the missile he was aiming at.
The rapid fire of the four-barrel 25mm machine gun made the entire spherical compartment tremble with each rear seat of the gun barrel. The burning tracer dragged the flame tongue and chased those "silk-style missiles". Looking at the effect of his own shooting, the shooter thought it was time to solve those guys.
"Stop, you have no way to escape..."
While muttering this threat that others cannot hear, his finger pressed the rocket's launch button on the joystick. The rocket that kept the axis consistent with the spherical shooting bay sight was then fired into the sky.
The unguided rockets followed the flight trajectory of the 25mm shell. After being shot into the air for a few seconds, the rocket engines began to work. They dragged their tongues of fire and flew into the sky like small crossbows. Then under the action of the delay fuse, clusters of black smoke burst into the sky. In the smoke, some small projectiles formed a network of pieces in the sky.
The engine that hit the "silk-type missile" on the shrapnel net began to spray smoke, and then began to fall from a high place to the sea. Even at this time, the shooter was still controlling the artillery and chasing them.
In the gunner's gaze full of fighting passion, the "silkworm missile" he chased finally exploded in the sky.
"Haha hit the target..."
As a member of the Japanese Imperial Army, these gunners are somewhat proud. Apart from the glory of the time he was once called the "Great Japanese Imperial Army", so far, the Japanese army is in the East, and there is no defeat that makes them unable to raise their heads.
Of course, this must be excluded from the Federal Defense Forces under Satan Eagle. Although they were defeated by the father's army, it was a kind of glory in the hearts of the Japanese soldiers.
However, on the battlefield, misfortune will always come. It is just a real warrior who dares to face the dripping blood.
Just as the anti-aircraft guns were guided and raised their muzzles into the sky, a "silk-type missile" that was still running near the sea suddenly jumped out from the surge of waves like a stinger.
"A warning to get shot, start running..."
Observing a "silk-type missile" at such a close distance, escaping is no longer a possibility. The only thing that can be done is to tell everyone this bad news.
"What...can't it..."
When these thoughts just arose in the minds of Japanese naval sailors, the "silkworm-type missile" dragging orange flames had already hit the deck of the Ganjiang-class warship.
The heavy warhead was accurately hit by the US military guide near the main gun. Although it was not easy to explode the ammunition on the warship designed and manufactured by the Chinese Federation. However, the turret was finally a very weak link in the warship armor.
"boom……"
In the violent explosion, the entire warship trembled like sitting on a mad cow, and many people were thrown on the bulkhead by the violent vibration. Then the pipes fixed in the bulkhead exploded, or thick smoke came out of the wires hidden under the bulkhead.
"Abandoned ship...abandoned ship..."
The abandoned ship system is different from other systems. It is composed of multiple independent, battery-powered wireless broadcast systems. The captain can issue commands by simply turning on the radio that he has been hanging around his waist.
Compared with ordinary destroyers, these catamaran-class warships with the main body are relatively easy to escape in addition to speed and wide decks. First of all, they do not have a cabin that blocks crew members like ordinary warships. The cabin of the main source of buoyancy is below the sea surface and there are no crew members inside.
So even if it is hit, the entire warship is still floating on the sea. Those double-layer sealed hulls made of steel plates are protected by multiple partitions. Even if one of the sealed cabins enters water, it still does not affect the safety of the entire cabin.
As for the cabins, because they are located on these sealed cabins, there is no need to install any watertight door design. Now, what really threatens the lives of the crew are thick smoke and the fires that have been ignited.

The crew brought goggles and hard masks and appeared on the decks on both sides of the battleship, where some lifeboats were placed into the sea. Some simple skeletons, plus inflatable airbags, formed a 6-sided lifeboat that could shelter from wind and rain.
On the crew's life jacket, there is a black inner water bottle made of tempered glass. It can heat sea water in the sun to get the necessary fresh water. It is fixed in the life jacket's life jacket, including some pill-type nutritional supplements and other essential equipment for marine life saving.
At least the manufacturers of the Chinese Federation will not explain the number of deaths that are so low that it is difficult to explain to this day. Why do they not consider the safety of passengers at all? When faced with those wrecked ships and passenger planes, they always use some excuses to bear the loss of life.
If we only talk about it from the perspective of human nature, these are just some means by dirty capitalists to evade costs.
The Japanese sailors who escaped to the sea raised their heads one by one, looking at the "silk-style missiles" that continued to fly. They began to wonder whether the US Navy's surface ships were sincere in fighting with the Japanese Navy.
However, just as they answered their questions, as they received rescue, a fleet of Americans appeared in the sky.
"Look, those guys...they are so many..."
In the sky, a fleet of aircraft from the US aircraft carriers appeared, and attack aircraft and fighter aircraft formed a huge formation. In front of them, more "silkworm missiles" appeared unexpectedly.
"These bastards are going to carry out saturation attacks on our fleet..."
This sentence can give a positive answer from the "silkworm-style missiles" that drag the tongue of fire everywhere in the sky. These missiles that drag the tongue of fire show that the Americans have the confidence to win this battle.
As more missiles approached, the Japanese Navy's alert fighters began to play the game of "cat and mouse" with these missiles in the air. The US Navy took out the skills learned from the Germans and flew the "silk-type missiles" out of the smell of fighters.
For a moment, in front of these surviving crew members, it seemed like a flight performance began.
As more American fighter jets flew in, the number of Japanese fighter jets did not increase, as if the Japanese naval fleet was attacked by the US fleet. This made the Japanese sailors wonder, was their Hawkeye attacked by the US air missile again? And until now, they have not seen the fleet of Japanese naval aviation?
In fact, when the "silk-type missile" launched by the US military from the air fleet flew to the Japanese Navy fleet, Tadakaichi Nagamo was already deploying an offensive plan. Just to take action, he was working hard to make his fleet look as if he had been under a surprise attack.
