On the battlefield of the main fleet of the Imperial Navy and the battleship detachment of the US Navy, Rear Admiral Robert, who was in charge of commanding the battleship detachment of the US Navy, had a very ugly face at the moment. www.biquge.info The sudden appearance of the Chinese Navy's 'Donghai-class' battleships and 'Three Emperors-class' battleships made his heart sink to the bottom. Previously, the battleship 'Wisconsin' was torpedoed and sunk, which had already caused them heavy losses. Now, it has encountered the interception of seven powerful battleships of the Chinese Navy, which undoubtedly makes the battleship detachment of the US Navy hopeless.

"Bastard! How so? How could these battleships of the Chinese be here? Aren't they supposed to stay in the country? Those guys in the intelligence department should be shot! Major General Robert scolded viciously.

However, the most important thing now is how to solve the problem at hand. After the battleships of the Imperial Navy arrived, they wanted to rely on the five 'Montana-class' battleships and two 'Iowa-class' battleships in their hands to sink the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy, which was already impossible. There are not many options left in front of Admiral Robert. Either retreat or continue to fight.

Of course, even if Major General Robert is now retreating and wants to retreat, it is not so easy. The Chinese Navy suffered a lot of losses in this battle, and it will definitely not let them go. Those powerful battleships of the Chinese Navy will inevitably pursue them relentlessly.

What's more, if the Chinese Navy's aircraft carriers resolve the crisis and begin to release carrier-based aircraft to attack these battleships of the US Navy, they will certainly not be able to escape. Even their armor is very thick enough to withstand heavy aerial bombs and heavy aerial torpedoes. However, the so-called ants bite more than the elephant. After the carrier-based aircraft launched an attack, even if they could not sink these battleships, they would be able to inflict heavy damage on them. The battleships of the Chinese Navy, on the other hand, could take the opportunity to beat the water dogs and sink them.

In addition, the boilers of these battleships of the US Navy have been in overload and will not last long at all, and they must be reduced in speed. Otherwise, once the boiler is scrapped, it will lose power and become a dead dog floating on the sea, at the mercy of the battleships of the Imperial Navy. The final end is bound to be very miserable.

If you choose to continue fighting, then, if you want to sink the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy, you must first defeat the battleships of the Chinese Navy. And to sink those battleships in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, those aircraft carriers would have slipped away. Or even release carrier-based aircraft to attack them. When the time comes, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to win, but I will still be a dead end in the end. However, Rear Admiral Robert knew very well that the performance of the 'Montana-class' and 'Iowa-class' battleships was not better than that of the 'Donghai-class' and 'Three Emperor-class' battleships of the Chinese Navy. Under the siege of many warships of the Chinese Navy, it is simply impossible for them to win.

"General, a telegram from the fleet." A communications officer handed a telegram to Major General Robert. What Major General Robert did not notice was that the communications officer's face was somewhat pale.

However, after Major General Robert read the telegram, his face also changed to that way.

"Bastard! Are the Chinese' carrier-based aircraft really so powerful? Our aircraft carriers and other warships have been sunk, how is this good? Major General Robert was a little dazed. The telegram was sent to Rear Admiral Robert after Rear Admiral Halsey had boarded an unsunken destroyer. Rear Admiral Halsey High Speed Rear Admiral Robert, except for the fleet led by Rear Admiral Robert, the 1st Aircraft Carrier Task Force has been completely destroyed. He hoped that the battleship detachment led by Rear Admiral Robert would be able to inflict heavy damage on the Chinese Navy so that they would not lose too badly in this battle.

After receiving this telegram, Major General Robert seemed to have no other choice. He knew very well that it would be impossible to escape, and he would only be besieged by carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese Navy and then sunk. Now there is only one way in front of them, and that is to fight to the end, and there may be a glimmer of chance. After all, the 'Montana-class' battleships and the 'Iowa-class' battleships are indeed very good battleships. If God bless them, they may not be able to win.

Therefore, Rear Admiral Robert immediately ordered all ships to be ready for battle and ready to fight with the Chinese.

"All the sailors of the Navy of the United States of America, now we are at an absolute disadvantage, and we have no other way to survive except to fight to the death. The main fleet, where our aircraft carriers are located, has just been attacked by Chinese carrier-based aircraft, and all the warships have been sunk. As a result, we have the only chance for the U.S. Navy. If we can't inflict heavy damage on the Chinese Navy, then we will lose this war completely. So, guys, for the sake of the American Republic, fight! May God bless us and bless the United States of America. Rear Admiral Robert's words rang over every battleship over the radio and into the ears of every American Navy soldier.

Hearing that the main fleet, where the aircraft carrier was located, was sunk, almost everyone was saddened. But, as Major General Robert said, if they don't fight to the death, they will die, and the United States will lose. Therefore, they have no other choice but to fight to the death. Only in this way may there be a glimmer of life.

"Fight! For the sake of the United States of America, for our lives, fight to the death. God bless us and bless the United States of America! Countless U.S. Navy officers and sailors shouted.

At the same time, on the aircraft carrier 'Phoenix Mountain', the flagship of the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Navy, Admiral Chen Houfu also learned that the carrier-based aircraft had won the victory and was returning home. Although, the carrier-based aircraft sent by the main forces of the Imperial Navy were not able to sink all the warships of the US Navy. However, after the 11th Carrier-based Aircraft Wing and the 12th Carrier-based Aircraft Wing make up their swords, the US fleet will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for news to arrive from the USS Mane Ridge that the 11th and 12th Carrier-Air Wings had eliminated the remaining warships of the American fleet, and that the American fleet had been wiped out except for these battleships and the warships that escorted them. Although, the Imperial Navy suffered a lot of losses in this battle. But on the whole, the Imperial Navy had already won the naval battle. If these battleships of the U.S. Navy can be swallowed in one fell swoop, then the Imperial Navy will once again win a big victory. On the other hand, the US Navy will completely withdraw from the struggle for supremacy in the Pacific Ocean because of this heavy loss. The Imperial Navy will be the true hegemon of the Pacific. It is almost impossible for the US Navy to want to fight back against the Imperial Navy.

"Order the aircraft carriers, clear the decks, and prepare to receive the returning carrier-based aircraft." Admiral Chen Houfu ordered.

"Yes, Commander." The staff officers beamed and went to give orders. Everyone knew that the Imperial Navy was about to win another major victory, and the Americans, the main opponent of the Imperial Navy, would once again be beaten down by the Empire.

"Send a telegram to the 1st and 2nd battleship detachments, it's up to them now. If we can keep the American battleships, then we will win this battle. Admiral Chen Houfu said.

Although battleship bombardment seems to be obsolete in this era, it is quite possible that such a situation will occur under certain conditions. For a long time, the Imperial Navy's 'East Sea class' battleships have been the most powerful battleships in the world. Both the tonnage and the caliber of the main guns are the most powerful in the world.

But now, with the advent of the 'Montana-class' battleships of the US Navy, the 'Tokai-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy finally have an opponent. The battleships of both sides were approximately equal in displacement, and the level of armor defense was approximately equal, the only difference was in the number and caliber of the main guns. The Imperial Navy's 'East Sea-class' battleships had only nine main guns, while the 'Montana-class' battleships had twelve, three more than the Imperial Navy's 'East Sea-class' battleships. In terms of the caliber of the main guns, the Imperial Navy's 'Tokai-class' battleships were 460 mm. The U.S. Navy's 'Montana-class' battleships were 406 mm, and the Imperial Navy's 'Tokai-class' battleships were superior in this regard.

However, the US Navy's 'Montana-class' battleships are newly built battleships, while the Imperial Navy's 'Tokai-class' battleships have been in service for more than ten years, and although they have undergone many modernizations and modifications, they still cannot change the old reality.

Therefore, if analyzed from these aspects, the performance comparison between the Imperial Navy's 'East Sea-class' battleships and the US Navy's 'Montana-class' battleships should be half a pound.

No one expected that this time, the most powerful battleships of China and the United States would have a chance to face each other head-on, in order to prove who is really the most powerful battleship in the world.

Under the orders of Admiral Chen Houfu, four 'Donghai-class' battleships and three 'Three Emperor-class' battleships of the Imperial Navy lined up in a battle line and attacked the US Navy. The U.S. Navy's five 'Montana-class' battleships and two 'Iowa-class' battleships are also combat-ready. As for the other battleships of the Imperial Navy, they took the opportunity to retreat. After all, previous battles have proven that they are not at all opponents of the Americans' cutting-edge battleships. (To be continued.) )
