"Brothers, maybe next, our ship will be destroyed, maybe we will be buried in the sea
But I dare to say that today’s battle will be the first shot of the Chinese navy’s counterattack, and it will also be an unprecedented victory in a naval battle! You, you, you,... and all of you will be remembered in history forever!
"
"well!……"
The soldiers all shouted and raised their weapons high.
At this time, Dragon Boat Festival shouted again: "Everyone, please go back to their respective posts. Listen to my command later and attack the Japanese flagship first. Do you understand?"
"understand!"
The soldiers answered loudly, and then all returned to their posts.
Duanwu also wanted to return to the command room. But at this time, Xie Jinyuan ran out in a panic and said: "Commander, for some reason, the little devil suddenly changed his mind. Order us to use up all the ammunition on the ship immediately, and they will escort us
Return to base."
"Did the little devil notice something?"
Duanwu thought for a moment and guessed the Japs' intentions. He asked, "How far are we from the Japs' flagship?"
Xie Jinyuan replied: "There are still 2.5 nautical miles."
"Okay, stop pretending, tell the devils that I am the Dragon Boat Festival who dominates Shanghai. Let them all wash their necks and wait for me! Hahaha!"
Duanwu laughed and stepped into the command room.
At this time, Kosaka Masao was still giving in.
So, this transformation happened so fast. In less than three hours, I became my own person.
Duanwu patted Masao Kosaka on the shoulder and said: "Old bear, let's stop pretending, we are just the little devils who want to fuck Te Niang."
At this point, Duanwu shouted into the microphone: "Go at full speed, everyone opens fire."
Kawauchi ship!
Takeuchi listened for a long time but still couldn't understand what Dragon Boat Festival was saying. Takeuchi didn't understand Chinese. Finally, a translator deciphered it.
He repeated in Takeuchi's ear: "Stop pretending, fuck the little devil. Go forward and fire."
"you sure?"
Takeuchi was a little unconvinced, because the other party clearly said a lot. How come it only turned into a few words when he translated it by himself?
The little Japanese translator quickly said: "Sir, Chinese people are always very wordy when speaking, but they are not as concise and concise as our Japanese!"
"well!"
Takeuchi nodded with satisfaction. However, at this time, Yamamoto said anxiously: "Isn't this the point? The point is that the enemy is about to open fire."
"Nani?"
Takeuchi was shocked and was about to order all ships to attack the Izumo, but he didn't expect that the Izumo had already launched an attack.
Dragon Boat Festival's battles have always been famous for their ferocity. As long as he sees the prey he has spotted, he will bite a piece of the opponent's flesh before he dies.
The soldiers of the Independent Regiment have learned the true story of the Dragon Boat Festival. Once they launch an attack, they will be extremely ferocious.
Various types of artillery were fired at the Kawauchi ship.
The shells whizzed past in mid-air, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
The Japanese on the Sawauchi ship felt their scalps numb when they heard the sound of the shells breaking through the air. Because it was not one shell, or two shells, but countless shells, attacking in multiple stages.
Takeuchi ordered the Japanese soldiers to fight back, but before the shells could be fired, the Kawauchi ship was hit by seven or eight shells of various types.
The main gun on the bow of the ship was directly blown off, and the deck in front of the main gun was also blown away. Together with half of the bow, it ignited in a raging fire.
Boom! Boom!...
At the same time, around the Kawauchi ship, water jets that were higher than the other kept flying up. Visually, there were at least thirty water jets, just like a blowout.
At this time, Takeuchi finally understood why Yamamoto said that the commander of the enemy ship was a beast and a madman.
Indeed, that is a beast, a reckless lunatic.
"Where are the destroyers on the left and right?"
Takeuchi asked loudly.
The adjutant replied: "Your Excellency, the two destroyers have opened fire. But you see, the other party doesn't care about our gunfire at all. They are rushing towards our gunfire."
"Madman, this must be a madman. Is this how the war is fought? Baga, this must be a naval officer who is not a navy commanding the war. Is he going to perish with us?"
Damn Chinese people, I, I, I want to show you the consciousness of the Imperial Japanese soldiers. Listen to my order and all ships launch torpedoes. At this close range, the Izumo cannot avoid it."
The Japs Takeuchi cursed and ordered all Japs ships to launch torpedoes.
The Japanese destroyers on the left and right were not attacked, so they launched the torpedoes calmly.
The Kawauchi ship also launched torpedoes at the same time. There were six torpedoes in total, heading straight for the Izumo.
The Type 93 torpedo is extremely fast, at least twice the speed of the Izumo.
Therefore, in theory, after the Type 93 torpedo is launched, there is a 70% certainty that it will hit the target. And at close range, there is an additional 20% certainty.
The torpedo was speeding under the water, with only slight bubbles emerging.
So without an underwater sonar system, this kind of torpedo would be really difficult to detect.
But on the Izumo, there was Masao Kosaka, a senior Japanese engineer who was preparing to become a Chinese citizen, who was sparing no effort to speculate on the location where the torpedo might hit the Izumo.
After a moment, Kosaka frowned and said: "Mr. Danwu, we can't hide. Takeuchi's fleet cooperates very well. It's impossible for him to leave us a gap. No matter how we hide, we will be hit by at least three fish."
Lightning struck.”
"Three torpedoes? Mark the positions of the torpedoes for me."
Danwu gave a loud order, and Kosaka Masao quickly drew a sketch with a pen. Marking the locations where the six torpedoes were launched, as well as the location of the Izumo, and where the Izumo and the torpedoes would encounter.
At this time, Captain Wang looked at the sketch and frowned: "Old Xiong is right. No matter we hide to the left or to the right, we will collide with at least three torpedoes. The Izumo is too big.
."
"Big talent is good, big talent has advantages. Give me more horsepower and let me rush forward. At the speed of twenty knots per hour."
All naval guns were ordered to adjust the left full string, and all muzzles were aimed at a position about one nautical mile to the left.
Lao Wang, adjust the ship's course five more degrees to this position. Remember, don't give me any mistakes, otherwise military law will be engaged."
During the Dragon Boat Festival, he knocked on the table and talked to Lao Wang.
Lao Wang's mouth twitched and he thought to himself: "You're really good at it. I, a division commander, can make you and a regiment commander engage in military law. There is really no one else."
But there is no way. Now the entire warship Dragon Boat Festival is the largest. Everyone must listen to him.
At the same time, Duanwu said to Xie Jinyuan: "Come on, Lao Xie, I will take you to see what a real sea battle is!...
