Gra Vulcus Empire Central 2nd Fleet Latest Destroyer Sarin

Sarin, a state-of-the-art destroyer equipped with a device based on the underwater acoustics of the Gra Varcas Empire.

Kuyam, a member of the crew who manipulated the searcher, listened.

Confirm that there are no artificial objects specifically reflecting into the signal sounds emitted by the ship, and that the surrounding sea area is safe.

(All right, it's almost time for a change.)

It has been pointed out that Japanese submarines may be in the vicinity.

However, inspections using state-of-the-art equipment combining imperial technology showed that there were no artificial objects in the surrounding waters.

I lost my temper for a moment.

Hmm?

Capture a slight noise in the ear.

While conducting a wide area search of Active Sonar, he noticed that it was clearly a reflective sound of an artifact.

That number is six...

There was only one answer to this state of affairs.

A chill runs down your spine, and you get an unpleasant sweat pouring out of your body.

Check with other meters to be sure.

"Torpedo approaching!!! 5000 miles westward!! 6. Calculating thunder speed!!!"

According to Kuyam's report, the air in the parking lot became tense.

"You've found it, Kuyam. Five kilometers would be an easy way to avoid it.

Communicate to each ship immediately!! "

There was still room for them at this time.

The Captain has instructed us to contact each ship promptly.

Eventually, the fleet began to turn to the left.

Kuyam does not have any other torpedoes approaching him, but concentrates on putting the tuning machine in his ear.

"Oh no!!!"

This movement, which is clearly far from your common sense, raises a loud voice for an unexpected shock. He hesitates for a moment to report an unbelievable phenomenon.

However, from the measurement results, there should be no mistake...

"What are you doing!!"

When Kuyam is lost, Geki flies to report it as soon as possible from his boss.

"The torpedo has changed direction!!!" Guided torpedoes... torpedoes?? "

A submarine that attacked a second central fleet that was docked in the past. The possibility of the existence of a guided torpedo was pointed out to the victims.

There was also an argument that we might have a guided torpedo because we had a guided bomb.

When the Ishutam fleet, which was planning to attack Moo's capital Otahito, lost to Moo's modified battleship La Scissor, there was speculation that a guided torpedo might have been used to destroy a fleet of that size from the calibre of the guns.

However, the battlefield was in disarray and the fleets were all extinct, so we couldn't be sure if the guided torpedoes really existed.

This is because Japanese information that crossed the Gra Varcas Empire also contained a lot of deceptive information.

The fact that it is confirmed on the battlefield.

The Destroyer gets noisy.

◆◆◆

Flagship Kornephorus

"Torpedo, I've reoriented again." Thunder speed 55 knots!!! (Approximately 101.8 km/h) Each of the three shots appear to be heading towards the aircraft carrier Ogma and Smeltrios respectively.

I am turning according to the ship's movements!! It's a guided torpedo!! "

"Yu... it's a guided torpedo!!"

Fleet Commander Akeil spins his head into a sudden new weapon.

You know where it is!!

"I can pinpoint the location of the torpedo." I can't pinpoint the enemy submarine's location!! "

"Get the carrier away from the torpedo at full speed!!"

The Destroyer should take all ships in the direction of the torpedo and destroy any enemy submarine.

The rest of the ships will start artillery fire as soon as the torpedoes are ready for their expected driving position!! Intercept underwater!! "

Instructions are conveyed accurately.

Main gun!!

The flagship Kornephorus also participates in artillery fire to destroy the torpedoes.

Four 45-calibre 35.6-cm cannons and four 50-calibre 15.2-cm cannons slowly turned towards the sea.

"Elevation correction 1.2... correction complete"

The slow-moving cannon makes the viewer feel heavy.

"Ready to fire"

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

An overwhelming amount of kinetic energy is fired.

After the shells were fired, a projectile flame larger than the fleet emerged, causing the impact to shake the ocean.

The kinetic energy of the giant bullet reacts by moving the giant ship and slowly tilting the ship.

One by one, the cruisers begin firing, as if to signal the launch of a flagship.

Seabirds fly into the air in amazement as heavy shooting rings from nearby waters.

Eventually, shells hit a certain area and a huge water column rose one after another.

"Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me, shoot me, shoot me!!" Be sure to destroy the torpedo!!! "

A pillar of water from the impact of a bullet stands like a pile.

"There's no way we can destroy this."

Captain Akeil snorted. It was not just him, it was a forceful attack that everyone was sure of.

But-.

Six torpedoes, still heading for the carrier!!!

"Ggh!! What's wrong?! Destroy them quickly!!!"

The torpedoes are exploding towards the carrier.

Eventually, we entered the anti-aircraft gun range and started firing with the anti-aircraft guns.

Increases projectile density.

Too much blast sound, acoustic detection is no longer possible.

However, the torpedo running through the clear water was close enough for a good watchman to see.

The Imperial fleet desperately fires its shells.

Anti-aircraft guns were also driven in like rain with tracer shells.

However, the Empire's anti-aircraft guns are not intended to be fired below horizontal and are difficult to target.

Eventually, the torpedo slipped near the flagship and headed for the carrier.

Shoot. Shoot. Shoot.

Already in the vicinity of the sea, one fish is wrapped up in an explosion that makes it difficult to live.

But I can't hit it.

Eventually, one of the torpedoes hit the rear auger of the carrier Oguma.

"Ahhh!!"

From the flagship bridge, Fleet Commander Akeil watched with binoculars as the giant carrier Oguma vibrated and a massive water column rose to the rear of the fleet.

Two other shots continue to capture the middle of the ship.

The Maritime Self-Defense Force Type 89 torpedo hit the bottom of the ship twice after destroying the screw of the Gra Varcas Empire carrier Ogma, and the 267kg of high-performance explosives built into the torpedo unleashed its power.

Seawater with a density of 1000 times that of air is contained without escaping the burst pressure, causing great damage to the hull.

The explosive pressure that penetrated the bottom of the ship destroyed the entire carrier sector, making it physically weak.

A violent storm of flames sweeps through the interior of the carrier in an instant, inducing bombs and planes to explode on the ship. The overwhelming energy is directed upwards, and a fire pole appears on the top deck.

The area around the fire pole also began to burn with an overwhelming heat wave.

The firepost rises ten times as high as the Empire carrier, scorching the clean blue sky.

Large holes at the bottom of the ship flooded with vast amounts of sea water.

It was just around the corner.

At an unbelievably early time, the carrier Oguma disappeared into the sea with the aircraft and its crew.

The aircraft carrier Ogma sank!!

An inanimate report resonates on the bridge.

Fleet Commander Akeil was stunned by the fact that the fleet's core forces would sink without a second thought.

The destruction continues.

Aircraft carrier Smeltrios is lightning!!!

An enormous water column and fire column rose from Smeltrios.

Fleet Commander Akeil's anger rises unreasonably as he is unilaterally defeated.

"... damn it!! Damn it!!!!"

I hit the metal desk with my fist as hard as I could, and my fist became bloody.

Even the fleets of former world enemies, the Kane Kingdom, have been skilfully conducting their own battles to their advantage.

Since my transfer to this world, I have won a series of battles.

I was overwhelmingly confident, absolutely confident in my command on the battlefield.

However, there were overwhelming enemies in front of us who could not help it.

I don't know where I'm being attacked, and I'm beaten unilaterally. Moreover, it almost hit the enemy's bullets.

Instead of anger at his enemies, he became angry.

Just because I'm angry, it doesn't mean that the attack will stop, and the aircraft carrier Smeltrios sank into the sea without a trick.

"The enemy!! You still can't find the enemy!!"

He exclaims in a voice that is close to the sound of money.

"I don't know yet!!!"

"Oh... oh dear. Oh dear... I can't help it"

Fleet Commander Akeil makes humiliating decisions.

Drop a single bomb nearby and disturb the underwater sound!!

Huh?

“Didn't you hear me? Mine drops. If you don't know where you are, you won't be able to compete.

As long as the enemy is a submarine, acoustic signatures will tell us where we are.

Then you can use the sound of a blast to disrupt the nearby ocean and crush the enemy's ears to stop the attack in the meantime.

The battleships and cruisers leave the nearby waters as the destroyers lay their mines in a row, rapidly heading west of Laifolia.

Destroyers too. Use your speed to rendezvous after the mines are dropped. "

Orders have been relayed accurately and the destroyer has begun dropping mines.

◆◆◆

Submarine Sorurium

There was an explosion echoing in the sea.

"The enemy has begun to lay a succession of mines.

It has been dropped in a position completely unrelated to our ship, and the depth of the mines seems to be much shallower.

The enemy battleships and cruisers are about to leave the waters. "

With World War II level mines, we can't adjust the depth of our ship's fuze.

The captain of the ship, the star, gives his impression of the explosion somewhere shallower than the place where Ryu dived.

"I apologize to the enemy, but if you disturb the sound, it's annoying, so I'll ask you to turn it off."

Ready your harpoons! Take your naval destroyers to the next level. "

The stars will direct an indiscriminate attack on the fleet by Harpoon.

Roger that!! Enter the direction of the enemy ship, attack the nearby fleet indiscriminately, fire anti-ship guided ammunition harpoons, and prepare to fire in a single shot!!

Instructions are relayed accurately and counter-ship guidance ammunition is loaded into the forward launch tube.

"Ready to fire"

"Launch!"

With a slight sound, the anti-ship guided shells in the pressure capsule were released into the water.

The capsule rises at high speed and appears on the surface of the sea.

After the capsule reaches the surface, the solid rocket motor of the harpoon activates and begins to fly while pulling the tail of the flame.

◆◆◆

Destroyer Sarin

Squad member Kuyam was using binoculars to monitor the bridge after a mine-drop operation had begun and acoustics were disturbed underwater.

Enemies may be scouting with periscopes.

An incredible sight jumped into the eyes of the concentrated Kuyam crew.

He reports what he sees when he doesn't know what to report.

"Ugh... a rocket jumped out of the ocean!!! It's flying towards Masim, who is dropping mines!!"

"I... I... what the hell!!!"

In fact, a pair of anti-ship guided bullets jumped out of the capsule, but in his eyes, it seemed like a rocket had jumped out of the ocean directly.

The rocket heads for Masim, the acoustically disturbed destroyer from the mines.

I immediately radioed in.

"I also noticed Massim!!" Start evasive movement!! "

Initiate evasive movement and fire anti-aircraft guns at the rocket.

Anti-aircraft guns on single ships feel terribly weak.

The other cruisers are too old to be ready to intercept.

The rocket turned in the air in the direction of Massim.

"Damn it!! Avoid it!!"

Kuyam exclaims as he wishes.

However, reality does not work like a story, and the enemy's guided rocket disappears into the Destroyer Masim.

A flash of flashes enveloped the destroyer Masim.

"Ahhh!!!!"

Khuyam had seen the Empire's proud super-battleship Grade Atlastar fire a 46cm cannon into an abandoned ship.

The explosion was larger than the explosion when the projectile was fired.

The explosion was so large as to make it appear that it had blown off the surface of the sea... After the blaze subsided, the destroyer Masim disappeared from the surface of the sea.

Massim sinks!!

"Oh no!! That's stupid!! I've never heard of a rocket jumping out of the ocean!!!"

Attacks continue, albeit with some misunderstanding on the part of the Gra Varcas Imperial Guard.

"Four rockets emerged again from the sea surface!!"

Four rockets simultaneously emerged from the same area, heading for nearby destroyers and cruisers that were leaving the area.

The next four shots hit the ship without missing, pulling the ship into the Dead Sea.

At sea, other destroyers panicked, and no one dropped mines.

At Sarin's bridge, the Captain thinks.

"If there are any survivors, we will rescue the Destroyer Masim."

He gives instructions slowly as other ships panic.

"That's it!! The ratio of the enemy to the enemy is obvious!! Now you should leave this waters as soon as possible!!"

With everyone's lives at stake, the First Officer is opposed to saving the lives of the crew.

"Once you leave, you can go back to the same place and the crew will be gone." Rescue will be carried out.

If there are no survivors in the waters of Masim, we will go to the sinking of the other ships!!

You can't abandon your comrades!!

It's like flying a guided rocket from the sea and sinking a ship on the ground.

If you get targeted, you won't be saved anyway!!

That!! I should have lived a little justice, a little justice!!! "

Captain Sarin's voice shook the hearts of those present.

The destroyer, Sarin, headed for the sinking waters of Masim.

Submarine Sorurium

"Captain, the acoustic disturbance from the mines has stopped."

Many ships are leaving at full speed east. There is only one harpoon left, three destroyers within range of the departing ship, two vessels in evasive motion, and the remaining one heading straight for the sinking ship. ”

"I'd like to reduce the number of destroyers as much as possible...... but one of those ships is a rescue ship, right?"

The stars make a bitter face.

"Yes, the one that's heading straight for the sinking point is supposed to be for rescue."

"... two ships in evasive movement are attacked with torpedoes, and one ship on its way to rescue is targeted."

With the attack on two ships, this operation is over. "

The order was executed correctly.

The submarine belonging to the 5th Submarine Division of the 1st Submarine Group of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force, Soruriu, engaged 20 aircraft carrier maneuvers of the 2nd Fleet of the Imperial Central Navy in Gra Varcas, and sank six aircraft carriers 2, cruiser 1, and destroyer.

Gra Vulcus Imperial Navy Central 2nd Fleet Flagship Orion Class Battleship Kornephorus

"Oh... oh my God!!"

Naturally, if the Commander is not well-mannered, his men will feel upset.

However, Fleet Commander Akeil could not hide his shock.

"The invisible enemies have never done this before!!" We don't even know where the enemy is! "

We have lost two aircraft carriers, the core of the carrier maneuvering fleet, and eight cruisers and destroyers combined.

Although Battleship 3, Cruiser 4, and Destroyer 4 remain in the current waters, as an aircraft carrier maneuvering unit, the battle force is lost.

We have left one destroyer for rescue, so we have essentially ten left.

If we're dealing with Starfleet, we know it.

However, the fact that the enemy was perhaps only one submarine, and even though it was the result of escaping without any means, it caused so much loss adds to his sense of despair.

He was about to throw up due to a stomachache.

"Commander, I have a transmission from my own country..."

What?

"Thirty-three enemy fleets are heading south at 9045YX in the northern waters of Laifolia."

The Holy Millennial Empire and the Allied Fleet of Japan, our Central 2nd Fleet, have been instructed to intercept. ”

“My own country certainly understands that our fleet has been hit?”

“Yes, I know. Our Central 2nd Fleet is preparing to intercept."

"... you mean to die..."

Disadvantaged armies were often forced to march in desperation.

I wonder if this is how the commanders of the hostiles who once challenged our Empire felt.

Fleet Commander Akeil's eyes twitch.

All of a sudden, my family's faces went to the back of my head.

I never dreamed that such a strong enemy would appear in my own generation.

The enemy is a mixed fleet, not to be underestimated by the Holy Millennial Empire alone.

There seems to be a desperate difference in military technology in Japan.

It is defeated in terms of technical ability, number, and ability to spot enemies. And there was no aircraft carrier. A march of despair.

But the order was absolute.

"Alright!! Let's blossom... Fleet needles, we're going to destroy the enemy!!"

I'll show you how my Imperial Gra Varcas Navy feels!!! "

Differently, the Imperial Central 2nd Fleet is heading south to the Allied fleet.

Divine Millennial Empire Mixed Magic Fleet Death Barr Flagship Oriharkon Class Magic Battleship Cosmo

Fleet Commander Tachyon and Captain Eliza were looking beyond the ocean at the bridge of the battleship Cosmo, which, if the Japanese had seen it, would have had an extremely advanced appearance that would have made them look like future battleships.

"There are 10 Gra Vulcus Imperial Naval Forces at a point about 300 km southwest of Japan."

The movement of the Gra Varcas Empire fleet has been uncovered for quite some time, and we have been in constant communication.

However, Starfleet Commander Tachyon does not order the launch of the Sky Floating from the carrier.

"The Japanese fleet has contacted us again for confirmation."

"No change, tell the Japanese fleet." Our fleet of ten hostiles is crushed by only one Oriharkon-class magic battleship, the Cosmo.

You guys shouldn't touch me. "

Originally, Japan had requested air support, and the fleet should have been destroyed by wave-like attacks of anti-ship guided munitions by the air and sea.

However, from the common sense of the battlefield, a ridiculous request is coming from the Holy Millennial Empire Fleet to "stay out of the way."

This time, the militia was dispatched under the guise of escorting the millennial fleet, so they were unable to move.

Moreover, it was a flagship with a command function, and it could not be thought of as a Japanese common sense ship to enter alone, so it was sending confirmation notifications over and over.

From the perspective of the Holy Millennial Empire, despite being the most proud nation in the world, Japan clearly lagged behind in the battle results, and it was necessary to recover its honor in the current situation where Japan was starting to be perceived by various countries as having a higher qualitative fighting power.

Destroy the enemy fleet with just one ship.

Moreover, there was a desire for legend on the battlefield to accomplish it without relying on the excavation weapons of the ancient magical empire.

They also hide their political will to show that they can build an excellent ship against the Japanese nation.

Captain, I'm so sorry.

Fleet Commander Tachyon has given orders, and Captain Eliza is in command.

"Battleship Cosmo, roll over to the enemy fleet!!!"

With the exception of the excavated battleships, the newest and most powerful of the battleships of the Holy Millennial Empire, the Oriharkon Class Magic Battleship Cosmo, was about to turn in the direction of the Gra Varcas Empire fleet.
