"Boom! Boom! Boom! "On the side of a destroyer of the US Navy, two 40-mm anti-aircraft guns are firing wildly. For Americans, www.biquge.info it is now a matter of life and death. If they want to survive, they must shoot down those Chinese carrier-based aircraft in the sky. Otherwise, it will be a dead end.

A Chinese Navy F9 fighter jet quickly skimmed the destroyer, strafing the destroyer with nose guns and aviation machine guns. Under the heavy blow of shells and machine-gun bullets, the American sailors on the anti-aircraft gun emplacements of this destroyer were immediately killed and wounded.

Two dive bombers of the Chinese Navy, seizing this opportunity, immediately bombed the aircraft carrier. They swooped down almost vertically in the air, as if they were about to crash. At an altitude of less than five hundred meters from the destroyer, the bomb was dropped. Two bombs, under the action of kinetic and potential energy, were dropped on the destroyer.

"Right full rudder, dodge bombs." The captain immediately ordered. The Navigator personally controls the rudder and wants to steer. However, it still did not succeed. A 500-kilogram heavy aviation armor-piercing projectile, which exploded next to this destroyer, formed a near-miss bomb. The strong water pressure created after the explosion tore through the underwater armor of the destroyer. Another aviation armor-piercing shell hit the front deck of the destroyer. Heavy aerial bombs directly penetrated the deck, exploding inside the destroyer. The violent explosion almost destroyed the front half of the destroyer's hull. At the same time, the ammunition depot of the former main gun was detonated, causing hundreds of shells to be detonated. Such heavy casualties suddenly made the destroyer start to sink continuously. For a destroyer with a displacement of just over a thousand tons, a 500-kilogram aviation armor-piercing projectile is enough to inflict irreparable damage on it.

"Hell, the destroyer in our right rear was sunk. There are holes in our air defense network. The gunners of the USS Saratoga roared. At this time, there is a hole in the air defense network, which is undoubtedly fatal.

Rear Admiral Halsey's face was ugly, the tactics used by the carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy were very simple, but they were very practical. At first glance, it can only be practiced after a long period of training. Compared with the carrier-based aircraft pilots of the Chinese Navy, the carrier-based aircraft pilots of the US Navy are rookies at all. A group of rookies want to challenge the elite, so how is it possible?

"Very good, there are already loopholes in the air defense network of the American fleet, seize this opportunity to completely tear apart the air defense network of the Americans." Colonel Liu Tingsheng ordered. It can be said that the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft unit has firmly grasped the odds of victory after the war has been fought to the present extent. The current resistance of the American fleet is more like a trapped beast. It was only a matter of time before they were sunk.

"Woo! Woo! With a terrible scream, the Chinese Navy's dive bombers continued to attack the warships of the American fleet. Although the anti-aircraft fire of the American fleet was somewhat dense, they were like petrels walking through a storm, easily dodging the anti-aircraft fire and then dropping bombs.

Torpedo attack aircraft also began to reduce their altitude, began to drop torpedoes. A YL4 torpedo attack aircraft had just dropped a torpedo less than a hundred meters from the sea and was about to pull it up, but it was hit by a 127-mm anti-aircraft shell. The torpedo attack plane, which was directly hit, disintegrated in the air, and the pilot was killed on the spot.

However, the 533-mm heavy torpedo was still heading at high speed towards a destroyer of the American fleet.

"Get out of the way!" The captain of the destroyer commanded loudly. Once hit by a 533-mm heavy torpedo, it is definitely not something that such a small destroyer with a displacement of just over a thousand tons can withstand.

The destroyer turned quickly, but at this moment, two other YL4 torpedo attack planes attacked from the other side, and two heavy torpedoes quickly approached the destroyer.

There were also two dive bombers in the sky that attacked. In the end, the destroyer managed to dodge two torpedoes and an aviation armor-piercing shell. However, was hit with a torpedo and an aviation armor-piercing projectile. As a result, the destroyer was blown in two on the spot, and in less than two minutes, it sank into the sea.

The battle was very fierce, and even though the U.S. fleet desperately resisted, there were so many Chinese carrier-based planes in the sky that the U.S. Navy had no way to deal with it. One warship after another was sunk, making their air defense network constantly porous.

Only fifteen minutes into the battle had already sunk three destroyers and two light cruisers in the American fleet, which rendered the air defense network of the American fleet useless. The carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy could go straight into the field and launch a direct attack on the aircraft carriers and battleships of the American fleet.

Although, the 'Colorado-class' battleships of the US Navy are huge warships with a displacement of more than 33,000 tons. The caliber of the main gun is 406 mm, and this main gun is undoubtedly very powerful. However, for carrier-based aircraft in the sky, such a powerful main gun is useless at all. Because of the angle of elevation and rate of fire, this powerful main gun is not a threat to carrier-based aircraft in the air at all.

However, battleships of this class are also equipped with a lot of anti-aircraft weapons. There were as many as 12 127-mm high-altitude guns alone, as well as 4 76-mm anti-aircraft guns and a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns, and the firepower of the entire battleship was very dense, like a hedgehog covered in thorns.

Four dive bombers and eight torpedo attack aircraft launched an attack on the battleship USS Colorado of the US Navy. Four dive bombers entered from a high altitude and dropped bombs at an altitude of only 500 meters from the battleship 'Colorado'. The battleship Colorado was like a mad bison, rushing to the right and right to dodge the bombs falling from the sky.

However, at this time, eight more torpedo attack aircraft also dropped bombs. Eight 533-mm heavy torpedoes fanned out at high speed towards the battleship 'Colorado'.

The battleship 'Colorado' made an emergency turn to evade, and the huge centrifugal force even threw several sailors who were operating anti-aircraft guns on the side into the sea. However, this still could not change the fate of the battleship 'Colorado' being hit. A 500-kilogram aviation armor-piercing shell smashed into the side of the "Colorado", blowing up several anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, and further weakening the "Colorado's" anti-aircraft firepower. Three of the eight heavy torpedoes hit the 'Colorado', causing a huge hole in its side and the sea water rushing into it.

Subsequently, several dive bombers and torpedo attack planes of the second wave launched another attack on the Colorado. The battered battleship Colorado was no longer so agile in its reaction. This time two aviation armor-piercing shells and four torpedoes were hit. After being hit by so many bombs and torpedoes, the battleship 'Colorado' could no longer hold on and capsized on the sea.

The sinking of the battleship "Colorado" made the air defense network of the US fleet no longer a threat to the shipboard of the Imperial Navy. Hordes of carrier-based aircraft launched an attack on the USS Saratoga and the battleship USS Maryland.

Despite the frantic counterattacks of the USS Saratoga and the battleship USS Maryland, the situation could not be prevented from deteriorating further.

"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded, and a 500-kilogram aviation armor-piercing projectile hit the flight deck of the USS Saratoga. The upper flight deck was punctured, and the bombs exploded underneath, blowing up the hangar below and igniting a raging fire.

Subsequently, two torpedoes also hit the USS Saratoga, causing the massive aircraft carrier to begin to flood. Although damage management personnel are working hard to extinguish the fire and plug the leak, it is clearly unlikely that it will succeed.

At the same time, the battleship "Maryland" was also besieged by ten dive bombers and ten torpedo attack aircraft. In the midst of the fierce fighting, the USS Maryland shot down a dive bomber and two torpedo attack aircraft. However, he can't change his fate. After receiving a total of six 500-kilogram aviation armor-piercing shells and five 533-mm heavy torpedoes, the battleship "Maryland" could not escape the fate of being sunk.

At the time of the sinking of the battleship "Maryland", the aircraft carrier "Saratoga" was also at the last moment. After another four aviation armor-piercing shells and six torpedoes, the massive aircraft carrier had clearly begun to sink.

"General, the Saratoga is sinking, we can't hold out for long, let's get out of here." The adjutant persuaded.

Rear Admiral Halsey didn't say a word, and his ship was about to be sunk, and he felt very uncomfortable.

"General, the Chinese are too strong, we still need to continue to fight with them, we must preserve ourselves as much as possible. Otherwise, we will never have the opportunity to continue fighting with the Chinese for the sake of the United States of America. Fukuoka pleaded bitterly.

"Well, give the order to abandon the ship. Move everyone to the lifeboat as much as possible. Major General Halsey said.

Indeed, when the USS Saratoga was about to sink, he wanted to die very much. However, in order to be able to continue fighting, he had to either leave.

Under the attack of the carrier-based aircraft force of the Chinese Navy, the US Navy's 1st Aircraft Carrier Task Force, except for one destroyer, was seriously damaged, and the rest of the ships were sunk. (To be continued.) )
