The battleship "New Hampshire" is the fourth ship of the "Montana-class" battleship, and its strong combat effectiveness is definitely one of the most powerful warships in the world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info it's just that after being hit by a dozen 610 mm super-heavy torpedoes, it still sank. The 610-mm super-heavy torpedo of the Chinese Navy is a lethal weapon for any surface ship. Even the 'Montana-class' battleships could not resist. This is also the reason why the Chinese Navy knows that the Americans' 'Montana-class' battleships are powerful, but it does not build new battleships to fight them, but continues to keep the old 'Donghai-class' battleships.

The battleship New Hampshire sank swiftly into the water, leaving a huge whirlpool in the sea. The more than 1,900 US Navy officers and men on board the battleship sank into the sea with the warship before they could escape.

'Oh God!' The battleship USS New Hampshire sank. Countless U.S. Navy officers and sailors couldn't help but be terrified after witnessing all this. They were proud of the arrival of the 'Montana-class' battleship, believing that it was definitely an unsinkable battleship. However, now the facts are before their eyes, and they have to believe that there are simply no so-called unsinkable battleships in the world. As long as it suffers enough blows, no matter how strong the battleship is, it will sink.

"General, the battleship 'New Hampshire' has sunk." A staff officer reported to Major General Robert.

A trace of sorrow flashed in Rear Admiral Robert's eyes, and then he ordered: "I know, let the ships continue to fight." If we do not find a way to sink the Chinese warship, the fate of the battleship 'New Hampshire' will be a lesson for us. ”

"Yes, General." The staff officer hurriedly went to send a telegram. Obviously, Vice Admiral Robert wanted to use this to further boost the morale of the officers and men of the US Navy and let everyone fight to the death. However, he had to admit that the sinking of the battleship "New Hampshire" had too much impact on the morale of the US Navy.

After the sinking of the battleship New Hampshire, the battleships of the two sides were six to six, and it was four 'East Sea-class' battleships against four 'Montana-class' battleships, and two 'Three Emperor-class' battleships against two 'Iowa-class' battleships. This makes the strength of the two sides more balanced, and whoever wants to achieve an overwhelming advantage is unlikely.

It is already unlikely that the battleship detachments of the US Navy want to sink these powerful battleships of the Chinese Navy in the shortest possible time, and then pursue the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy. These battleships of the Chinese Navy did not fall behind in the confrontation with the US Navy. On the contrary, with the passage of time, the Chinese Navy will gradually gain the upper hand.

On the six main aircraft carriers of the Imperial Navy, the landing of carrier-based aircraft has been completed. The fighters who had returned from their missions were being transported by elevator to the hangar below. Ground crews refuel and reload these carrier-based aircraft. And the pilots went to rest. Long hours of flying are inherently a physical task for pilots. Especially when braving the enemy's dense anti-aircraft artillery fire to launch an attack, it was a huge test of the pilot's will.

Once the aircraft were back in the hangar, the elevator would transport the second batch of carrier-based aircraft in the hangar to the deck, and then take off to attack the battleships of the U.S. Navy, sinking them in one fell swoop.

"Commander, a total of two hundred and two planes returned, and fourteen aircraft were lost, including, 8 dive bombers and 6 torpedo attack aircraft." The staff officer of the Communist Party reported to General Chen Houfu.

Admiral Chen Houfu nodded, these carrier-based planes taken off by the Imperial Navy almost wiped out the US Navy, and the loss of more than a dozen carrier-based planes was completely within an acceptable range. After all, where there is war, there are casualties. Especially in the midst of a tragic battle against enemy ships, it is perfectly normal for some carrier-based aircraft to be shot down by enemy anti-aircraft fire.

"Send a couple of destroyers and look for the downed pilots in that area. Either way, try to get them back as much as you can. Admiral Chen Houfu said. Although, Admiral Chen Houfu knew that it would take a long time to send a destroyer to the sea hundreds of kilometers away. Even if the destroyer were to sail at full speed, it would take about five hours. And the pilots of the Imperial Navy, after parachuting, were they able to hold out for five hours? That's obviously a bit difficult. However, even so, the rescue operation cannot be canceled. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must do our best to save those pilots.

"Yes, Commander." The staff officer nodded, and immediately went to deliver the order.

A few minutes later, the two 'sub-class' destroyers began to rush towards the southern seas at a high speed of thirty-five knots.

On the sea, the powerful battleships of both sides are still bombarding each other frantically, constantly inflicting damage on each other. The U.S. Navy also seems to be aware that their situation has become very bad. So, the sailors worked harder. But even so, they still could not quickly defeat the Chinese navy and win the naval battle.

On the USS Phoenix Mountain, carrier-based planes filled with fuel and ammunition have been raised from the hangar to the flight deck. In this offensive, it is still planned that each of the six main aircraft carriers will take off 12 fighters, 12 dive bombers and 12 torpedo attack aircraft. Six aircraft carriers are capable of taking off more than 200 carrier-based aircraft. If the number of carrier-based aircraft in horror is enough to drown these battleships of the US Navy.

"Commander, the second batch of carrier-based aircraft is ready to take off for combat." An operational staff officer reported to General Chen Houfu.

"Very well, order the carrier-based aircraft to take off immediately and sink the battleships of the Americans. This time, it is necessary to sink all the battleships of the Americans, and not a single one of them will be spared. Admiral Chen Houfu said.

Before, they were pursued by the battleships of the Americans for so long that they were almost sunk. The experience of escaping in embarrassment made Admiral Chen Houfu very unhappy. After the Imperial Navy had become a well-deserved hegemon in the Pacific Ocean, such a thing actually happened, which naturally made Admiral Chen Houfu very depressed.

After Admiral Chen Houfu's order was given, one carrier plane after another took off from the aircraft carriers of the Imperial Navy. The first to take off were fighter jets, which, after takeoff, circled over the aircraft carrier, waiting for bombers and torpedo planes to take off. After all, the fighter performed the task of suppressing the anti-aircraft fire of the target warship, creating conditions for the attack of bombers and torpedo aircraft. If there were no bombers and torpedoes, unless these fighters crashed directly into enemy ships. Otherwise, it won't do much damage to the target ship at all.

After the dive bombers of the Imperial Navy also took off, these fighters joined the dive bombers and attacked the battleships of the US Navy.

"General, the Chinese aircraft carriers have taken off a large number of fighters, and they are flying at us." A staff officer reported to Major General Robert with a pale face. Obviously, they all know the situation of the American fleet now, and even the battleships of the Chinese Navy can't help it, let alone the overwhelming number of carrier-based aircraft. Once it is hit by a double blow from carrier-based aircraft and battleships, there is probably only one final consequence, that is, it will be completely sunk.

"Shameless yellow-skinned monkey! They actually used such despicable and shameless tactics. When the battleships were in a duel, they shamelessly sent carrier-based aircraft to besiege us, which was simply despicable and shameless. Major General Robert yelled.

The U.S. Navy officers and sailors in the command tower were silent. It's war, and it's not fair. In war, it is undoubtedly very normal to use all means to defeat the enemy. Not to mention that the Chinese Navy is doing this, which is completely understandable.

"Order all anti-aircraft artillery positions, stick to their posts, and be sure to shoot down the Chinese's carrier-based aircraft, so that they know that the strength of our anti-aircraft fire is not something they can bully at will." Major General Robert ordered.

The only thing that reassured him was probably that the 'Montana-class' battleships and the 'Iowa-class' battleships both had good anti-aircraft firepower. Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns of various calibers made their battleships look like hedgehogs. No matter from which direction the enemy's carrier-based aircraft attack, they will inevitably be hit by their anti-aircraft fire. Therefore, it is not so easy to sink the battleships of the US Navy with carrier-based aircraft. At the same time, the casualties paid will not be small.

"Yes, General."

On several battleships of the US Navy, sailors had already rushed to their respective posts, waiting for the attack of the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft. One by one, anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were already aimed at the sky.

Many US sailors couldn't help but be a little frightened and frightened when they looked at those carrier-based planes in the sky. Although, they have very strong anti-aircraft firepower. However, whether they can withstand the attack of the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft, many of them are uncertain. The number of carrier-based aircraft in the Chinese Navy is so large that it makes people's scalps tingle.

When the carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy flew over the heads of the battleships of the US Navy, the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns of the US Navy opened fire.

"Knock knock! Da-da-da-da. "Anti-aircraft artillery shells and anti-aircraft machine gun bullets shot into the sky. (To be continued.) )
