"Commander, we have already taken out the battleships 'Illinois' and 'Kentucky' and are now besieging the remaining four battleships. After www.biquge.info kill them, we will win this naval battle. A staff officer reported to General Chen Houfu with an excited face.

"Well, our pilots are all good. However, the four remaining 'Montana-class' battleships of the Americans are all hard bones and not easy to deal with! Admiral Chen Houfu said.

The comprehensive combat power of the 'Montana-class' battleships was no worse than that of the 'Tokai-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy. During the simulated exercise, the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft paid a huge price to sink the 'Tokai-class' battleship.

Of course, this cost is undoubtedly insignificant compared to the sunken battleship. Especially if the pilots of carrier-based aircraft are able to be saved, the losses are even smaller. The cost of a Montana-class battleship is much higher than that of an aircraft carrier, including all carrier-based aircraft.

"Order our pilots, at all costs, to sink or severely damage the American battleships." Admiral Chen Houfu ordered. If the carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy were able to sink the Americans' 'Montana-class' battleships, it would undoubtedly be the best. If it can't be sunk, then even if it's a heavy hit, it's okay. Next, hand it over to the 'Tokai-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy. Dealing with the 'Montana-class' battleships, which had already suffered heavy losses, was definitely a piece of cake for the 'Tokai-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy.

"Yes, Commander." The staff officer nodded, and immediately went to give orders.

For a time, the air force of the Imperial Navy attacked the four 'Montana-class' battleships of the US Navy more violently. The fighters constantly opened fire, strafing the anti-aircraft gun emplacements of the US warships with aviation machine guns and machine guns, suppressing their anti-aircraft fire, and creating conditions for the attack of dive bombers and torpedo attack planes. This is undoubtedly very dangerous for these fighters. It is not uncommon to see fighter jets of the Imperial Navy being hit and then crashing into the sea. After a fighter pilot is hit, it is generally difficult to jump into the sea. On the one hand, the altitude is too low and the speed is too fast, and it is too late to jump into the sea. On the other hand, the anti-aircraft guns on the battleship were very powerful, and the 40-mm anti-aircraft guns and 20-mm anti-aircraft guns could disintegrate the aircraft in the air once they hit it. In that case, it would be difficult for the pilot to escape.

However, it was precisely because of the fierce attack of the pilots that the anti-aircraft fire on these warships of the US Navy was completely suppressed. Only the dive bombers and torpedo attack planes of the Imperial Navy were able to launch an attack smoothly and inflict greater damage on the US warships.

"Boom!" A 500-kilogram heavy aviation armor-piercing projectile hit the superstructure of the "Montana", destroying all the radars equipped on the battleship. These radars, which were originally very precious things, were naturally scrapped after being hit by shrapnel.

Major General Robert was also startled, this feeling of an explosion on the top of his head was really unbearable, and he almost collapsed.

"Damn! And what about our anti-aircraft guns? Why didn't the Chinese carrier-based aircraft take down? Major General Robert yelled angrily.

"General, our anti-aircraft guns have done their best. By now, they have shot down at least more than five carrier-based aircraft. However, the number of carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese is simply too much. Our anti-aircraft guns were also destroyed quite a bit, and the gunners suffered heavy losses. The officer in charge of air defense operations said with a bitter face. It's not that they don't fight hard, but the strength of the opponent is too strong! So much so that after they tried their best, they were still powerless against the carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy, and could only watch their own warships continue to suffer trauma.

"Torpedo, torpedo found on the port side." The sailors spotted four heavy torpedoes rushing towards the battleship 'Montana' at high speed, and they were even frightened, and hurriedly shouted a warning at the top of their throats.

"Oh God! Quick evasion. "The navigator himself steered the rudder and turned the rudder to evade.

However, the Torpedo planes of the Imperial Navy, with the assistance of fighters, dropped bombs less than 500 meters from the battleship Montana, and the 533-mm heavy torpedoes were fired at the battleship Montana at a speed of more than 45 knots, making it impossible to avoid it at all.

"Boom! Rumble! "Two loud explosions sounded in quick succession on the port side of the battleship 'Montana'. Two 533-mm heavy torpedoes slammed into the waterline armor. Even though the battleship Montana had thick waterline armor, it could not withstand the heavy torpedoes, and it was still torn apart, blowing out two cuts. Although the opening was not long, it still caused a lot of damage to the 'Montana-class' battleship.

What's more, this is just the beginning. Subsequently, the carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy launched another fierce attack, dropping bomb after bomb on the battleship 'Montana'. The entire superstructure of the battleship Montana has been blown up into a sea of flames, and the damage is very serious. In particular, almost none of the equipment that assisted the war was spared.

The mortal threat to the battleship 'Montana' was still the capture of heavy torpedoes. In the face of the battleship "Montana", which has thick armor, it is difficult for heavy aviation armor-piercing shells to really threaten its vital points. The torpedo attack on the battleship "Montana" below the waterline, once a large amount of water has been inflowed, it is possible to sink the battleship "Montana".

Over the next twenty minutes, the battleship 'Montana' was hit with 12 heavy aviation armor-piercing shells and 15 heavy torpedoes. The entire structure of the ship was destroyed during the battle. This also made the battleship "Montana" unable to hold on any longer.

"General, the battleship Montana is finished, and we can't save him anymore, so please get out of here at once." The captain of the battleship 'Montana' pleaded.

"Leave? Where else can I go? Major General Robert asked blankly.

Although, he lost this naval battle. However, as long as he can escape back to the United States, he will be forced to retire at most, and he will not be further implicated. However, he did not want to live like that. What's more, now that they are already under the siege of the Chinese Navy, how can they escape so easily? The Chinese Navy will never let the ducks fly away like this.

At this time, the battleship 'Montana' had begun to tilt little by little because of the serious damage. When the hull is fully tilted and eventually capsizes, it will be the end of the world for everyone.

"You're the captain of the ship, give the order to abandon the ship. You've done your best. The next thing to do is to try to live. Major General Robert said.

"Yes, General." The captain of the battleship 'Montana' nodded, and then gave the order to abandon the ship.

However, Rear Admiral Robert did not leave with the others, he locked himself in the cabin and sank into the sea with the battleship. As the commander of this naval battle, they suffered a crushing defeat, and naturally he had to take responsibility.

Rear Admiral Robert sank into the sea with the battleship Montana, leaving the remaining three Montana-class battleships out of command. In fact, under the attack of carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy, these three battleships also suffered heavy losses. Although it did not sink for a while, this was mainly the reason why the main target of the attack of the carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy was the flagship of the battleship Montana. If the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft re-intensified their attack on them, they would also be dead.

What's more, not far away, the four 'East China Sea-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy are still eyeing them.

"Damn, what are we going to do now?" The Montana had sunk, and the general had sunk with the ship at one time. The captain of the battleship 'Ohio' said bitterly.

"Captain, we failed, we were defeated by the Chinese. They're going to sink us soon, just as they sank the Montana. A staff officer said bitterly, and in the face of impending death, they collapsed directly.

"No, I don't want to die, I want to go home." A U.S. Navy officer said.

"Yes, we don't want to die, we want to go home." More officers and men of the Navy made their voices heard.

"What do you want to do?" The captain of the battleship 'Ohio' asked with a frown.

"Your Excellency, we have already lost, and if we continue to fight, we will surely die. So, please give the order to surrender. An officer plucked up courage and said.

"What? Surrender to the Chinese? Surrender to the yellow-skinned monkeys who slaughtered countless of our compatriots? How is this possible? The captain roared loudly.

"If it is not like the Chinese surrendered, then we will die." Others retorted.

The captain wanted to say something more. However, after seeing the strong desire to survive in the eyes of these naval officers and men, they immediately swallowed back all the words that had already reached their lips. He knew that if these people were really prevented from surviving, they might really ignore the power of his captain, arrest him, or even directly execute him, and then attack the Chinese.

In order to save his own life, the captain of the battleship "Ohio" finally chose to accept reality.

"Well, we all want to live, we all want to go home. The battle is over, we lost. Raise the white flag and surrender to the Chinese. The captain said helplessly. (To be continued.) )
