"Commander, the battleship 'Huaxia' has been heavily damaged and has withdrawn from the battlefield. The battleship 'Yanhuang' was sunk www.biquge.info Pen&Fun&Ge. "On the aircraft carrier 'Phoenix Mountain', the flagship of the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Navy, a staff officer reported to Admiral Chen Houfu.

Admiral Chen Houfu couldn't help but be shocked, less than twenty minutes after the battle began, the Imperial Navy had already severely damaged a battleship and sunk a battleship. Such losses are undoubtedly heavy. As the U.S. battleships get better, the Imperial Navy's battleship detachments will lose more and more of it.

"Send a telegram to Major General Cai Junbao asking if they can still hold on?" Admiral Chen Houfu asked.

"Yes, Commander." The staff officer nodded, saluted, and immediately left.

"Also, send a telegram to the 1st and 2nd battleship detachments when they will be able to arrive. This time, we must surround and annihilate the eight battleships of the Americans, and not a single one will be spared! Admiral Chen Houfu gritted his teeth and said. The Imperial Navy had never suffered such a big loss, losing not only more than two dozen fighters, but also two battleships. And the losses are expected to rise further. If you don't talk about the encirclement and annihilation of the battleship detachments of the Americans, how can the Imperial Navy eat such a bad breath?

"Yes, Commander." A communications officer hurriedly went to send a telegram.

A few minutes later, they received a telegram from Rear Admiral Cai Junbao, commander of the 3rd Battleship Detachment, in which Rear Admiral Cai Junbao reassured Admiral Chen Houfu that they would definitely resist the attack of the American battleships and buy time for the 1st and 2nd Battleship Detachments.

Although Admiral Chen Houfu knew that the pressure on the four battleship detachments of the Imperial Navy was very great, he was also relieved after receiving a call back from Rear Admiral Cai Junbao. He knew that Major General Cai Junbao was giving him a guarantee.

"Commander, the 1st Battleship Detachment and the 2nd Battleship Detachment have received a telegram, and we will only need twenty minutes to be able to reach the battlefield." The communications officer reported to Admiral Chen Houfu.

"Good, hold on for another twenty minutes and we'll win. Moreover, the Americans are now only focusing on attacks on our battleships. They seem to have forgotten that aircraft carriers are the real workhorse. Admiral Chen Houfu said.

Twenty minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time. If it is well grasped, the Imperial Navy will be able to reverse the situation by holding on to these twenty minutes. At the very least, after the arrival of the four 'Tokai-class' battleships of the 1st Battleship Detachment and the three 'Three Emperor-class' battleships of the 2nd Battleship Detachment, they will not be left without the strength to fight back.

After the battleship Yanhuang was sunk, the officers and men of the battleship of the US Navy burst into earth-shattering cheers.

"Haha, boys, well done. But that's just the beginning. Next, we have to use a series of sinking to let those yellow-skinned monkeys know that the United States of America is not a powerful country that they can provoke. Even if they rely on despicable and shameless sneak attacks, we lose a lot. But once we face it, it's not something they can beat. Major General Robert smiled.

In his opinion, the sinking of a battleship of the Chinese Navy was only the beginning. To sink all the Chinese battleships is a great victory. Major General Robert, of course, believed that they would do it very quickly.

The sinking of the battleship 'Yan Huang' greatly boosted the morale of the US Navy. At the same time, it also made the situation of the battleship detachment of the Imperial Navy even more difficult.

The battleship "Kentucky" joined the bombardment of the battleship "Shenzhou" and, together with the battleship "Illinois", laid siege to the battleship "Shenzhou". In the previous battle, the battleship 'Shenzhou' was hit by the battleship 'Kentucky', losing one rear main gun, and now only two front main guns can continue to fire. Now besieged by two battleships of the US Navy, the situation can be imagined. The shells fired from the two 'Iowa-class' battleships of the US military continued to fall around the 'Shenzhou' battleship, splashing columns of water into the sky. Although the battleship 'Shenzhou' was a huge battleship with a displacement of up to 30,000 tons, it was still like a small ship in a storm, and it could be sunk at any time.

"Boom!" The three 381-mm guns of the battleship 'Yao' of the Imperial Navy began to fire a salvo, and nine 381-mm shells smashed into the US battleship 'New Hampshire' with a roar. Despite the fact that a straddle shot had long been formed, it was not able to hit the target.

"Damn, readjust the shelling data." The gunner of the battleship 'Yao' said viciously.

The three main turrets of the battleship Yao began to rotate, and the pitch angle began to adjust. Gunsight radars are providing these main guns with up-to-date data on targets.

However, suddenly, a violent explosion was heard, and the entire battleship shook violently. A thought arose in everyone's minds, and that was that the battleship was hit. Being hit by a 406-mm shell from an American main gun is no joke.

"Report the loss!" The captain of the battleship 'Yao' got up from the ground in embarrassment, ignoring the fact that his forehead was broken when he fell, and his white uniform was already covered with dirt, and asked loudly about the loss of the battleship.

A 406-mm gun fired from the No. 3 main turret of the battleship 'New Hampshire' hit the apostor's apostor, and the shell pierced the armor of the boiler compartment and exploded inside. The huge force blew up the boiler room, and one boiler after another exploded. The high-temperature steam leaked out of it, and some sailors who were lucky not to be killed by the explosion were scalded to death by the high-temperature steam in an instant.

At the same time, after the destruction of the boiler compartment, the speed of the battleship continued to decrease.

"Captain, the boiler room has been destroyed, we have lost power, and soon, the battleship will stop." The officer in charge of damage management reported to the captain.

"Bastard!" The captain slammed it on the table.

"Report to the Commander." The captain said weakly.

The battleship lost power and was clearly unable to continue fighting. They can't even keep up with the pace of the battle line. In addition, if they continue to fight, they will only have one end as they become slower and slower, and that is to be easily hit by the enemy's battleship and eventually sunk.

Rear Admiral Cai Junbao learned that the battleship 'Yao' had been severely damaged and had lost its power, and his face became even more ugly. Now the situation has become more and more unfavorable for them. Although, it was only a little more than twenty minutes before the 1st and 2nd battleship detachments arrived. However, for them for such a period of time, it is completely like a year.

"Let the battleship 'Yao' leave and turn and get out of the battle line. Wait until the battle is over, and then tow them back to the shipyard for repairs. Major General Cai Junbao said.

Leaving the battleship Yao from the battlefield is undoubtedly the best option. After returning to the shipyard, reinstalling the boilers for the battleship will allow the battleship to regain its strength.

After receiving the order, the battleship 'Yao' began to turn and took advantage of inertia to break away from the battle line to avoid further attacks by the American battleships. However, this inertia is not enough for them to sail too far at sea and will soon be banned. At that time, they will only be able to count on other warships to tow them back to the shipyard. Of course, the prerequisite was that the Imperial Navy won this naval battle. If the battle is lost, then the final result will probably be to be sunk by the American battleship.

Although, of course, the current situation is somewhat unfavorable for the Imperial Navy. However, all the officers and men on the battleship 'Yao' believed that the final victory must belong to the Imperial Navy. Although the Americans are arrogant and rampant now, it is simply that the rabbit's tail cannot grow. Soon the Imperial Navy will let them know how powerful the Imperial Navy is.

"It's a pity that another battleship of the Chinese was heavily damaged. However, we don't have time to chase it down now. However, I believe that after we have taken out the other battleships of the Chinese, we can go back and take out the wounded battleships of the Chinese. Major General Robert said with a smile.

"General, why don't you capture those damaged warships of the Chinese?" A staff officer asked.

"Captive? Why take prisoners? Those warships of the Chinese are all old warships that have been in service for twenty years. The Navy of the United States of America does not need such old warships. Major General Robert said contemptuously.

Even the 'Five Emperor-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy can be regarded as warships with good performance. However, this did not make Major General 'Robert' take it seriously. In his opinion, the 'Five Emperor-class' battleships were far worse than their 'Montana-class' and 'Iowa-class' battleships.

"General, now we have completely suppressed the Chinese battleship detachment. I think it's time for three 'Iowa-class' battleships to deal with Chinese aircraft carriers. Sinking the Chinese aircraft carriers is our most important task. A staff officer said.

Major General Robert frowned, but nodded anyway. Originally, he wanted to sink all the battleships of the Chinese Navy, and then go to deal with the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy. However, I thought that there would be no accidents, so I adopted this suggestion.

"Order the three 'Iowa-class' battleships, speed up, and pursue the Chinese' aircraft carriers." Major General Robert ordered.

After receiving the order of Rear Admiral Robert, the three 'Iowa-class' battleships immediately began to accelerate, increasing their speed by 33 knots, and began to pursue the aircraft carriers of the Imperial Navy. (To be continued.) )
