Chapter 107 The Battle of the Andaman Sea (Part 2)(1/2)

It seems that God felt that the atmosphere on the battlefield was not enough. He specially prepared thick smoke for both sides as the background to exaggerate the atmosphere.

Because forest fires often occur in Indonesia. Some Indonesians have the tradition of burning forests for fire farming. As a result, smoke often appears in the Strait of Malacca, which affects navigation safety. Sometimes the visibility is less frequent collision events.

This happened today. The thick smoke gradually spread to the seas of both sides like dark clouds. It soon enveloped the naval battle area.

1. After seeing the smoke, Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang, the commander of the Pacific Fleet, knew that if the smoke would sink to the sea for a long time, the visibility would be low. That would be unfavorable to combat. At this time, the Japanese fleet also completed the inverted L-shaped turn after paying the price of an armored cruiser. The five warships had already reached the opposite side of the first team.

So Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang immediately ordered the entire fleet to open fire. The main ships of both sides launched a fierce artillery battle between soldiers and generals.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

Sixteen guns from four battleships of the Pacific Fleet opened fire at the same time. The sound of muffled thunder sounded across the entire strait in an instant.

It declared that the decisive battle between the second-previous Fearless Class battleships in human history broke out.

Bang bang bang!

Then the shells fired by the secondary guns of all battleships hit the two battleships of the Japanese fleet like rain. Although it was 4 advantages, the main guns were not obvious due to the small number of secondary guns. However, the huge numerical advantage was reflected.

The hit rate has greatly improved. From a distance, I saw fiery red mushroom clouds rising from the Japanese battleships. Mars were shooting everywhere around the explosion ground, and fire was rolling.

Fortunately, the battleships are thick and thick in skin. Small caliber artillery cannot cause fatal damage to the battleships. Those destroyed are fragile building facilities.

Then the Japanese fleet also launched a counterattack.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

The same thunderous sound was the main gun of the Japanese fleet's battleships fired. Because it was a newly built warship, the shells were mixed with Mars when they flew out of the cannon chamber. The cannons were particularly lit up in the black smoke. The guns were lit up in the muzzle, which was deafening. The smoke of gunpowders filled the sky, the sea surface was surging, and the sea water was boiling.

Huge columns of water rose from the sea and tangled with the black smoke in the sky. It seemed to be a call to the end of the world. It declared that the showdown of the landlords of the two sides immediately entered a white-hot heat.

Similarly, the Japanese fleet's round-trip shooting did not hit any warships of the Pacific Fleet. The closest blasting point was also far away. It only brought huge water columns and waves on the sea.

The battleships showdown. The Pacific Fleet still maintains an absolute advantage in quantity.

Lieutenant General Jianzhang was still standing there on the bridge of the battleship Beijing.

"Commander, please come to the commander's tower to command the battle!" asked Major General Meng Mu, the captain of the Beijing battleship.

Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang waved his hand and said, "I'll stay here to watch the battle. You and Chief Xu will come in with other bridge staff members to command. Just leave a commander here."

"But you are in danger here!" Major General Meng Mu asked anxiously.

"It's okay. Once the war begins, the soldiers will no longer hide. I will stand here and cheer for these young men. Only then will they exert hundreds of percent combat power! You don't have to worry. Execute the order!" Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang ordered calmly.

After saying that, Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang picked up his telescope again to observe the battle situation. He didn't care that the water sprinkled by the shells fell on his snow-white military uniform.

While Major General Meng Mu was worried about Lin Jianzhang, he had more envy in his eyes. He thought to himself: This is the demeanor of a general!

The effect of Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang standing there was huge. When the sailors saw the fleet commander standing there, he acted as if the God of War was present, his fear of war gradually calmed down.

The commanders with more expensive bodies stood on the bridge without any protection. What are we little shrimps afraid of? The sailors thought to themselves.

The captains of other warships also informed the great image of Lieutenant General Lin Jianzhang to the officers and soldiers of this ship. Suddenly, the anger of each ship surged. The fear that was still a little bit disappeared.

On the battleship of the Fengtian battleship, Captain Yi Suifeng (a guest starring a book friend Qunyi) asked: "Chief of the staff determines the distance!"

Captain.” The Chief of Staff replied.

"Chief of Staff, you see that the other party is also a battleship. It is thick-skinned and thick. The attack effect of this distance is not very ideal. It can almost be ignored." Major General Yi Suifeng said while observing the enemy situation.

"It's the ground. Even if the main gun hits it, it's not a fatal key. The effect is not great! Although their ground battleships are imitating our Aries-class battleships, they seem to have not understood the meaning of our key parts to strengthen protection. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to do." The Chief of Staff responded.

"Not bad. So we have to concentrate our firepower to attack the enemy's key parts. It is best to hit their waterline belt or ammunition compartment directly." Captain Yi Suifeng said.

"I have a good suggestion. I wonder if the captain still remembers the huge explosion caused by the torpedo tube of the Spanish flagship Christina in the Navy of Manila? I think we should continue to attack the position of the torpedo on the front deck of the Japanese battleship. I have a premonition that it is the most vulnerable position of this battleship." The chief of staff said with certainty.

"I remembered it. No wonder the firing tube was removed and turned into a water-blocking compartment. It turned out to be a waste of money! God wishes us victory! The little Japanese torpedo cabin must have installed a lot of torpedoes in order to prevent our attacks. Look, their ships are obviously deeper than ours." Captain Major General Yi Suifeng said happily.

"It must be that. Their protection is far weaker than other positions. If we continue to hit the ground, it will be easy to succeed! The captain will give the order! If you sink it first, you will be the hero of the empire!" The chief of staff also said excitedly.

After excitement, the captain of the land, Major General Yi Suifeng, immediately calmed down. He picked up the microphone and ordered: "All gunmen, pay attention. Concentrate all their firepower to attack the fore-deck torpedo compartment of the Japanese fleet, Hachimashima. Sink it with all your strength! Repeat it loudly!"

"Concentrate all firepower to attack the fore-deck torpedo bay of the Japanese fleet Yashima. Sink it with all your strength!" The gun captains of each gun position replied loudly at the same time.

So all the side cannons of the Fengtian battleship were aimed at the front deck of the Yashima.

"fire!"

Dongdong!

With the order issued, the entire battleship hull was tilted to the other side by 3 degrees and then the main gun shell weighing kilograms was sent out of the cannon chamber. It roared towards the fore deck of the battleship Yashima.

Boom boom!

Hit! After the huge flames rise, you can see two huge double-linked craters left on the front deck of Hachishima. The outermost wooden stars on the deck flew everywhere.

Then the Fengtian's side-side main guns and class main guns opened fire one after another, bombarding the Yashima's front deck violently.

A raging fire broke out in an instant, causing the front deck of Hachishima to fall into a sea of ​​fire. Batches of Japanese sailors worked hard to extinguish fires using water, sandbags and other fire-extinguishing tools.

He Shuguang, the second-level main gun chief of the warship.3, ordered: "Reload the shells!"

I saw Niu Dazhuangxun, a level 2 loader, took out a shell from the ammunition truck, took off the shell protective cover, lifted it up and sent it into the cannon chamber. Another level 1 loader, Li Qiangxun, closed the cannon door.

The shells are loaded!" Niu Dazhuang reported the loading hand.

"Aiming is completed! Request to shoot!" report by shooter Yang Guobin.

"preparation!"

"Fire the cannon!" the cannon commander.

"Long live the empire!" Sagittarius Yang Guobin shouted this buzzword that was not made public but all officers and soldiers were clear about. At the same time, he pulled the trigger with his right hand.

Dong!

The shells flew out of the barrel and hit the target. They exploded on the deck of the Hachishima.

boom!

Five Japanese soldiers who were extinguishing the fire were blown into the air, with their limbs flying in a row and were covered in blood.

Yang Guobin, who saw all this in the sight, reached his left hand to his back and raised his signature gesture to his colleagues in the mainland turret. A victory gesture. The fourth-level warrant officer who won 1 in a row can be promoted to the same level as the third-level warrant officer of the cannon leader.

"I hit it again!" Niu Dazhuang shouted happily. Even if he was so tired of carrying the shells, he felt that he was not tired when he saw Yang Guobin's gesture. He felt so good.

"Recharge the shells!" At this time, the cannon leader He Shuguang ordered, and he still spoke seriously. But he betrayed him with a smile and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

He is happy for his comrades.

Dazhuang continued to repeat his movements and moved shells.

"Captain. We..."

Li Qiang was about to ask something. At this moment, a shell from the enemy suddenly fell next to the level 2 main gun. After a bang, the smoke rose up rushed in through the cannon window along the cannon body and directly pushed Li Qiang to the ground.

Everyone was shocked. Niu Dazhuang, who was carrying shells, hurried over to help Li Qiang up. Li Qiang's face was covered with cannon fodder, and only two white circles were exposed. A living giant panda was exposed.

"Li Qiang! Li Qiang!" As Niu Dazhuang kept shaking and shouting, Li Qiang finally woke up and screamed to death after a violent cough. He screamed to death.

I knew it was because I was choking and choking by the shock wave. There was no life danger. Everyone returned to their posts.

"Calm down. It's nothing. Just follow the usual training and do your best!" The cannon leader He Shuguang hurriedly comforted everyone. The only thing he had just had Yiyu. If it was a little bigger, they would fire again. The four-high explosion shells directly hit the Yashima waterline belt. The huge explosion force directly tore a huge hole in the protective armor around it. However, there was no torpedo in the torpedo tube. Therefore, it failed to explode. However, the torpedo compartment was directly exposed to the threat of Fengtian artillery fire.

"Yang Guobin. You are sure to beat him. Blow it out for me!" He Shuguang ordered.

"Just look at it! Hold it on me." Yang Guobin said confidently.

Just as everyone turned their attention to Yang Guobin, a heavy enemy shell hit the left side of the turret.

With a loud bang, the huge explosion force instantly smashed the armor of the turret. The aftermath swallowed everyone in the mainland of the turret.

After a while, Yang Guobin woke up slowly. He felt a scorching pain in his head. Blood was everywhere on his body. When he looked at others, Yang Guobin was shocked.

Li Qiang lay on the cannon pedestal, his eyes wide open, and his orifices were bleeding.

Yang Guobin touched Li Qiang's nose with trembling hands, trying to see if he was still angry. As a result, he just met Li Qiang's body and fell down.

Yang Guobin got up with difficulty and came to the next to the cannon leader He Shuguang. His chest had been smashed and his internal organs could be seen.

He endured the rolling in his belly and crawled to Niu Dazhuang again. He saw that this big man was covered in blood and blood was coming out of his mouth.

Yang Guobin turned around and wanted to find an emergency medical box, but was pulled by a big cow.

No...got to open...brother...fate!" Niu Dazhuang said with difficulty. Blood kept gushing out of his mouth. His face looked very terrifying.

"Don't say it anymore. Don't say it anymore. You will be fine. Believe me. You will be fine!" Yang Guobin said it almost cried.

At this time, Niu Dazhuang suddenly stood up, turned around and took out a shell from the ammunition box. He walked to the cannon in a swaying step by step. He stuffed the shell into the cannon chamber and closed the cannon bolt.

He said to Yang Guobin: Avenge for...the brothers...!"

Seeing Niu Dazhuang's mouth full of blood, Yang Guobin's eyes were bloody. At this moment, he forgot the pain in his body and ran to the shooting position quickly.

His hands quickly adjusted his shooting skills, but his eyes looked at Niu Dazhuang who was bleeding profusely. He cried and said, "Good brother, hold on for a while. I will blow the Japanese devils to the sky immediately. You must hold on!"

After adjusting and shooting Zhuyuan, he saw Niu Dazhuang still smiling and looking at him. Yang Guobin turned his head and quickly aimed at the torpedo cabin that had been exposed in the battleship of the Eight Islands.

At this moment, Yang Guobin's world was only the target inside the sight. His body seemed to have merged into a cannon. His eyes were staring at the target. Until an instant, Yang Guobin pulled the trigger.

Dong!

With the last wish of his comrades, Yang Guobin's angry-class main gun sprayed out the flames of revenge. The shells flew into the fore-deck torpedo compartment of the Hachishima like a helper.
