Chapter 1117 Missile Battleship

"Is this still a cargo ship?" Looking at the billowing pillars of smoke rising from the battleship in the distance, Admiral Stark was also a little sluggish.

Before a large number of missiles rained down, no one expected another 30 kilometers.

In a 30-kilometer radius, the Allied cruisers and destroyers that surrounded them could raise their guns before they were startled by a scurry of missiles.

Accompanied by all kinds of noisy screams and scolding, all kinds of orders to fill the rudder and retreat have been issued in time, but in the blink of an eye, the anti-ship missiles that can compete with the speed of the sound are approaching, and those Allied warships that are caught off guard are still inevitably rounded by missiles, which has become a bleak background for the light and rain of missiles that bloom like fireworks.

Although it is mainly the Styx missile, in this era when electronic jamming is not yet developed, the Styx, which once created a record of 13 rounds and 12 hits in the Indo-Pakistani War of 71, is enough to deal with these World War II ships. With a 2.5-ton impact kinetic energy at a high speed of Mach 0.9 and a 500-kilogram warhead, a destroyer or cruiser can be completely disabled, or even directly torn and sunk, as long as it is next to each other.

"Damn, it's missiles again!" Admiral Kim said angrily.

Most of the British warships that were more familiar with the sea conditions in the North Sea and needed to work hard to protect their homes were the American warships that were leaning behind and wanted to take care of this soft persimmon after seeing the new support ships of Huaxia. It was easier to command American warships, and Admiral King also wanted the American warships to take down the aircraft carrier fleet and the somewhat strange cargo ships.

But in a short period of time, everything has changed. The Chinese cargo ship was transformed into a killing machine even more terrible than a battleship, while the American battleship, which was supposed to earn military merits, became the military merit of the Chinese people.

After the fireworks, eight cruisers and 12 destroyers were groaning on the sea, and another three cruisers and seven destroyers, as well as eight other ships of various sizes, had sunk under the water.

The Huaxia fleet spilled 93 missiles in one go, setting a new record in the history of human naval warfare, sinking and damaging nearly 40 warships in less than 20 minutes.

"God, what the hell is this?" As soon as the initial reports of the damage were received, Admiral Kim regained his composure. Just let out a long sigh.

He knows. Now the Allied Navy is facing a great crisis.

It was even worse and more aggrieved than chasing and destroying the Huaxia, and before the Allied warship could get closer, it was first hit by a burst of missiles covering its head and face by the Huaxia support fleet, completely smashing the confidence of the Allied forces into the abyss of collapse. Now many Allied officers and soldiers are no longer thinking about victory, but about how to escape the physical and mental blows of those damn missiles.

The three warships in Huaxia were comparable to battleships, and the huge battleships had been regarded by many allied soldiers as a shock that was more powerful than the battleships.

Rao is that they have stopped releasing fireworks, but no one is sure whether they have released missiles or are the precursors of another eruption. The Allied warships either hesitated or retreated, not daring to come any closer.

The scene of the huge damage of the Allied forces shocked everyone, and even the Allied fighters in the air were shrinking back, far away. This is also the reason why even ship-to-air missiles are parked on those three giant ships, relying only on naval fighters that have continuously gained superiority. It was already enough to block the surprise attack of Allied fighters.

At this time, the crusaders who surrounded the escort in the sky above the fleet were like a halo, which set off the three giant ships even more shocking.

Although the missiles stopped firing, the three warships did not stop advancing, although the speed of the advance slowed down because of the passion of the missiles just now, but they still pressed towards the main fleet of the Allied forces without hesitation, and gradually pressed the huge figure directly into the hearts of the officers and men of hundreds of Allied warships.

As they advanced, Allied warplanes continued to fall from the gladiatorial arena in the sky. Fell into the sea. Even if it's far away. The sound of slamming on the water was like a war drum under a hammer. The sound was rapid, and it seemed to penetrate directly into the hearts of every Allied soldier.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a familiar tail flame erupted from the largest of ships.

"Missiles!" The string in the hearts of many Allied soldiers broke with the column of smoke that rose into the sky, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The decks of many warships were even more chaotic, and even the commanders of the battleships were keeping an eye on the trajectory of missiles in the sky, ready to adjust their ships at any time.

Seeing the tail line that was falling in an arc, and the blank space of the confrontation between the two sides about 20 kilometers in front of the giant ship, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Boom!" The missile went straight into the water, and after the splash fell, the stone in everyone's hearts really landed.

"Haha, finally missed!" Some people even shouted and laughed to release the pressure of the dry throat when they were nervous just now.

"Boom!" An even louder explosion followed, and a flame rose from the sea, spewing into the air.

When someone was shocked by the explosive power of the Huaxia missile, some discerning people noticed more that patches of burning oil were constantly burning in the seawater, as well as some floating garbage.

"There's a submarine there?" Someone quickly understood, and the corners of his mouth trembled and guessed. Some even remembered that there was a Nautilo-class submarine cruising around there. The observer had planned to take advantage of the fire, but before he could get closer, he was hit by a missile.

"Can Huaxia's missiles enter the water and hit submarines?" More widened eyes in disbelief.

But soon Huaxia proved it again to them with a quartz anti-submarine missile.

A missile flew into the water, but this time no one laughed at it, and with an earth-shattering explosion, the back half of the submarine's hull was obliquely exposed to the water, and then smashed into the water again, never to float up again.

"Huaxia's missiles can enter the water and hit submarines!" This time the rumors were more certain, and the submarines on the periphery of the Allied forces had already been frightened and kept retreating.

"We can hit targets in the air, on the water, and under water, how can we deal with them?" Quite a few lamented. The morale of the allies fell a few points again, and no one dared to step forward to stop them, so they could only watch the Huaxia support fleet with the three giant ships as the core like a swordsman who bravely entered the battle of Long Street, and after knocking down one enemy after another, it still moved forward unhurriedly.

"We've got to sink those!" Admiral Kim urgently consulted with everyone.

What was once a disdainful tailgating has now become a deadly threat. Even without waiting for them to slowly sink those warships, the reality that the Huaxia in front and the missile giants in the back are invincible can also make a large number of Allied officers and soldiers despair.

"I think those things seem to be the Huaxia people who moved the missiles to the battleship!" The three giant ships that had become the focus of the Allied forces were collected more information, Cunningham analyzed accordingly.

Suddenly, some people analyzed that one of them was a Bismarck-class hull and the other was a Montana-class hull based on those shapes.

Undoubtedly, they were right.

The two they pointed out were missile battleships that were converted from the Bismarck-class and Montana-class battleships.

At the beginning, considering the unreliability of the base, Meng Xiang used the tanuki to exchange the son of heaven for the method of exchanging the son of heaven, with the help of shipyards or repair shops in sub-bases around the world, and used the base to steal and exchange many real warships.

Relying on the familiarity with the Germans, the Germans' 2 Bismarck-class battleships have been changed. The Americans even had a Montana-class in the outfitting process, which was replaced by the shadow company at a low price.

In addition, the American-built Guam has been captured along with Halsey in the Battle of Typhoon in the Philippines, and Huaxia also has 2 realistic Montana-class battleships in his hands.

Although he had a realistic version of the battleship in his hand, Meng Xiang knew better that the battleship had fallen, and he still had a large number of base version dreadnought-class super battleships in his hands across the oceans.

There are very few opportunities for these battleships to be used, but simple mothballing is too wasteful, and these replaced battleships continue to remain in the Atlantic Ocean as a surprise soldier is not of great use, Meng Xiang couldn't help but think of modification.

With the prevalence of missiles, the power of large missile warships is even more amazing.

It's just that in the early stage, in order to react in time, the missiles were erected on the deck, and the missiles became more and more powerful, and the thick armor was not enough to resist the fatal blow of the missiles, and it was not necessary to carry a large number of missiles, plus the cost of the hull of the battleship was too high, and finally the missile battleship stopped at the cruiser. Even the Russians only produced a nuclear-powered Kirov cruiser, and did not go further to launch a target-like missile battleship.

The Americans have shifted their focus to relying on carrier-based aircraft to carry missiles to attack aircraft carriers with a wider range, and missile battleships are ultimately just legends.

Meng Xiang turned the legend into reality.

Even taking advantage of the large space on the battleship and the surplus displacement after reducing the ship's guns, a large number of missiles were placed, and it was transformed into an arsenal ship.

As another legend of later generations, the arsenal ship is limited by the fact that it must first ensure the invincible defense of sea and air diving, so that it will not be turned into a powder magazine that is detonated by the enemy's first opportunity, and only when the missile vertical launch system matures can it be gradually realized.

In the era when Allied anti-ship missiles were not yet prevalent and their performance was poor, battleships that had eliminated hidden dangers in the air could still run rampant for a while, so they had this invincible version of the arsenal ship in advance.

Obviously, many times and spaces have similar eras of coexistence of battleships and missiles, so much so that while the base upgraded its third-class battleships to 500-mm naval guns, it also had a branch of third-class dreadnought battleships that took the missile route, and its debut appeared in the North Sea.
