Once upon a time, the Battle of Pearl Harbor provoked by the Japanese Combined Fleet was described by the American melancholy poet Montgomery as "The Sorrow of Pearl Harbor". Montgomery wrote "The Fury of Pearl Harbor" based on this, and left a legacy
He wrote the popular poem "That night, the Pacific was crying for you", and now, if nothing else happens, the French Guiana naval battle provoked by the Chinese aircraft carrier fleet Genghis Khan should make Montgomery more sentimental.
Once again, maybe the latter can compose a good poem again.
It seems that we have gone too far. Back to the battlefield, before Xue Shanghai and others "set their sights" on the Oklahoma and other three battleships, Huang Haiqiang and other brave cadet submariners had already launched an attack on these three giant ships with torpedoes.
Because they were already being targeted by the wolf pack-like US destroyer fleet, and the Americans were on guard, the result of this attack was not satisfactory. Huang Haiqiang and the others launched more than fifty torpedoes in total, but only six hit them.
Among them, only three hit the battleship.
Thanks to the Japanese, the USS Oklahoma in service in the Atlantic Fleet at this time is no longer the same ship as the one anchored in Pearl Harbor. The Americans were very tough on the issue of naming the ships.
Stubbornness, such as the USS Hornet and the USS Enterprise. These giant ships have obviously been sunk by the Japanese in Pearl Harbor or the Pacific Ocean, but for unknown reasons, after the new giant ships were built, the United States
People still use these names as if the USS Hornet, USS Enterprise, and USS Oklahoma were never sunk.
This time it is the work of the Chinese (refer to the technical parameters of the Chinese battleship Beijing). The new battleship Oklahoma is much better than its predecessors in terms of displacement, armor protection capabilities and firepower. For example, the old battleship
After the USS Oklahoma battleship was refitted twice, it was equipped with only forty anti-aircraft guns of 40 mm caliber and 30 mm caliber. The new USS Oklahoma battleship has a terrifying number of anti-aircraft guns.
One hundred and ten guns, including thirty rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns with twin mounts and a caliber of 80 mm.
In the first wave of Chinese fighter planes' "Crazy Attack (Dyson)" and Chinese submarine's "Suicide Attack (Dyson)", the USS Oklahoma's anti-aircraft firepower was somewhat affected, and its starboard side was also hit.
One torpedo was hit. However, because the battleship Oklahoma had as many as 110 anti-aircraft guns and its armor protection capabilities were greatly enhanced compared to its predecessors, at this time, in addition to its speed, other aspects were affected.
After the emergency repair, it is basically in the best condition.
More than eighty anti-aircraft guns opened fire at the same time. In the dark night, the battleship Oklahoma looked like a hedgehog with flames spraying from all sides. Coupled with the awakening US destroyers, the cruisers began to move closer to it.
, to provide it with anti-aircraft firepower, Xue Shanghai and the others attacked it at this time, which was no less difficult than attacking a fortress densely covered with anti-aircraft artillery fire.
He made two consecutive tentative dives, but was almost hit by US anti-aircraft artillery fire at an altitude of 3,000 meters. When he felt that the fighter plane was shaking violently due to being hit by shrapnel, Xue Shanghai pulled up the fighter plane and left.
This airspace is filled with shrapnel.
The same situation also occurred in the sky above two other battleships and several heavy cruisers. After discussing with several of his brothers, Xue Shanghai decided to change his approach and concentrate his efforts on attacking one battleship.
"The enemy's anti-aircraft firepower is too dense. Forcibly breaking through will only result in more losses than gains. Free attacks are cancelled. Now, with me as the center, brothers, form a diamond formation."
At an altitude of eight thousand meters, Xue Shanghai and the others quickly formed a diamond formation. Then, following Xue Shanghai's order, more than thirty Golden Eagles roared and dived towards the USS Oklahoma.
When Xue Shanghai's Golden Eagle Cluster began to bombard the USS Oklahoma with intensive bombing, about 150 kilometers away from them, dozens of missile speedboats were cutting through the wind and waves, heading towards the battle area quickly.
After the missile speedboats severely damaged the Japanese combined fleet in the Taiwan Strait, the missile speedboats suddenly became the standard equipment of various fleets of the Chinese Navy because of their excellent cost performance.
As a small ship known for its speed, the missile speedboat has as many disadvantages as its advantages. Although the missile speedboat has the fastest penetration speed at present, its poor endurance makes it impossible for it to carry out long-distance missions alone. Therefore,
Usually, these missile speedboats are tied behind battleships, heavy cruisers or aircraft carriers, and are towed forward.
When designing this raid, Chen Shichang once considered letting the missile speedboat troops be responsible for the first wave of attacks. However, because the missile speedboats can only carry short-range ship-to-ship missiles, if the missile speedboat troops are allowed to enter French Guinea in advance,
There was a possibility of alerting the enemy in the Naya sea area, so Chen Shichang finally decided to put it behind and wait for an opportunity before considering whether to dispatch them.
As a rising star in the Chinese navy, Bian Jingdao has a strong ability to control fighter aircraft. After learning that both US aircraft carriers were severely damaged and lost their combat effectiveness, he immediately believed that the time was ripe to use missile speedboats.
.
Therefore, after the thirty-six Golden Eagles went into attack, he immediately ordered all missile boat troops to dispatch, asking them to gain range as quickly as possible.
As the name suggests, the strength of missile speedboats lies in their missiles. If the missiles cannot work when engaging enemy ships, they may be able to escape with their super high speed, but after losing the main fleet,
After being protected, it is unknown how long it can survive in the vast Atlantic Ocean.
When dozens of missile speedboats were rapidly approaching the US Atlantic Fleet, Xue Shanghai and the others had already begun the first wave of attacks. The first wave of attacks was still tentative. Under Xue Shanghai's strict order, all eleven golden eagles launched the attack.
The bomb was dropped at an altitude of about three thousand meters. After the bomb was dropped, it immediately flew into the sky to avoid the anti-aircraft fire of the US ship.
Eleven heavy-weight aerial bombs roared down from the sky. To Xue Shanghai's great disappointment, only three aerial bombs hit the target in the end, one of which hit a destroyer.
Xue Shanghai and the others were greatly disappointed. On the contrary, the Americans saw water jets exploding in the waters around the battleship Oklahoma. All the Americans, including Spruance, cheered.
"Don't stop, don't let the Chinese fighter planes have a chance to get closer." Spruance shouted on the command channel. At this time, he didn't know that a threat far greater than the golden eagle was approaching.
