Chapter 708： Air raid (part 2)

With the sinking of the three aircraft carriers and the Counterattack battle cruiser, it is finally the battleship's turn.

Of course, this is not to say that the incoming Romanian carrier aircraft will ignore them. It's just that the focus of the attack is not on them, but there are still more than 20 aircraft that are constantly doing the work of reducing their firepower, but because they are all docked together, the air defense firepower of these battleships has greatly increased.

These five battleships lined up together. Together, the firepower of hundreds of anti-aircraft guns turned it into a hedgehog like a firepower. It was extremely violent. One bomber was disintegrated in mid-air just because it couldn't dodge.

Faced with the battleships lined up in a straight line, the Romanian carrier-based aircraft that airstrikes are also irrelevant. Because wait a while, these still immobile battleships should be able to start, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time.

So you can't wait at this time.

Of course, the Romanian air raid troops did not lack courage. I saw the captain of the Serakos dive group, Major Lorric yelling to the electric tower. "The swoop team will come with me and get rid of them."

In other words, the skilled captain flew over the Nelson with his beloved dive bomber, and the anti-aircraft shells exploding around it did not give him any fear. Seeing his hand press down hard, he took his favorite aircraft into a dive state, and the 1000KG aerial bomb under his belly was so chilling.

In the face of the heroic performance of his captain, other dive bombers also carried out dive attacks one after another. The life-threatening behavior of the dive bombers gave the torpedo planes a chance. They were also in groups of three or four, and began to enter the low altitude, preparing to throw torpedoes.

The other warships in the port didn't understand the actions of the air raid aircraft, and immediately stepped up their firepower to try to scare them away. It's just that its actions are destined to be futile. The torpedo planes in the air raid in the naval port are determined to throw torpedoes on these battleships this time, even if they are hit, they will not give up.

So in the face of anti-aircraft guns that constantly fired deadly firepower, these torpedo planes bravely pounced on the five battleships without fear.

Although torpedo planes have been hit continuously, the Romanian carrier-based torpedo planes in this air strike are determined to take this opportunity to launch large-scale attacks.

Faced with this tactic of coordinated attack from top to bottom, naturally the air defense firepower has leaked.

Major Lorric, who was the first to make an inspiring move, has already completed the bombing maneuver in his dive bomber. With a lot of anti-aircraft firepower to complete the bombing mission, he not only has exceptional technology but also has very good luck.

The 1 ton bomb he carried did not live up to his expectations, falling directly between the No. 2 and No. 3 turrets on the front deck of the Nelson. This one-ton aerial bomb is mainly used to deal with solid fortresses and large warships. Its warhead is extremely sturdy, and it is also equipped with a delay device, which is conducive to exploding inside it after penetrating the top armor.

"boom!"

And this bomb did as he wished. It fell through the horizontal armor and exploded violently in the cabin. The violent explosion blew a large hole between the two forts, and the mixed smoke also interfered with the firing of the anti-aircraft guns. This also shocked the officers and men on the Nelson, because there was an ammunition room under the turret, and it was unfortunate that this aerial bomb did not detonate the ammunition room.

It's just that they were a little bit happy, and under the leadership of Major Lorric, they bombed the docked battleships one after another.

"Boom, boom!"

The Sovereign suffered two bombs, one of which hit its chimney, dispersing the billowing smoke, causing its anti-aircraft firepower to be immediately misaligned.

"boom!"

Warspite also got a bomb, which swept its right-side anti-aircraft gun.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The Malaya was unlucky enough to get three consecutive shots, hitting its stern, bridge and bow respectively. The bomb that hit the stern completely destroyed its power chamber, which also declared that the Malaya was completely impossible to move. Hitting the bridge part caused the loss of nearly half of its air defense firepower, while the bow of the ship blasted it into a big hole.

To say who is the most transported here, it is the Rodney. Two consecutive aerial bombs were dropped into the water.

It can also be seen from this that pilots who have not been tested in actual combat will make mistakes. Even if it can be thrown into a two-meter circle during training, once it comes to actual combat, especially under the shooting of many anti-aircraft firepower of warships, it can be considered as an elite. The battlefield is different from the training ground, and the land and sea are also different.

However, although the dive attack continued, more firepower at that time had begun to take care of the more dangerous torpedo aircraft.

It's just that these anti-aircraft firepower still can't stop the torpedo planes. After entering the range, these torpedo planes immediately release their torpedoes. A total of two batches of 49 torpedo aircraft released 42 torpedo lines. These dense torpedo lines make the scalp numb to those who see it, which also shocked the officers and soldiers on the battleship. Now they need to deal with the diving attack while facing the incoming torpedoes.

In fact, the best way to face these torpedoes is to avoid them, but now they can't move, where can they get the space to avoid, this is completely dealing with fixed targets.

These dense torpedo-throwers felt desperate, and at this time all the firepower they could afford was chasing these swift torpedoes.

"Boom~ boom~ boom!"

The fierce shooting caused several torpedoes to be destroyed by fire. However, there were too many torpedoes. Although several torpedoes were exploded, there were still many torpedoes that broke through the fire blockade and rushed to the five battleships. Although some torpedoes were off the track, many of them were accurately aimed at several battleships.

And they are not far from the battleship, the situation is very endangered.

And in the face of such a dangerous moment, it can reflect the history of the British Navy for hundreds of years. I saw the anti-aircraft cruiser Luna stand in front of the Rodney at full power, because three torpedoes were rushing towards it.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

After the three explosions, the Luna, which was broken into several sections, disappeared on the sea.

The Luna’s behavior immediately attracted several warships to imitate. The cruiser Calypso also stepped forward to block the torpedo for the War exhaustion, but its tonnage was not enough. The torpedo went through the bottom of the ship and continued to rush towards the War exhaustion. go with. UU Reading

The other two warships that wanted to be similar also failed to stop the torpedoes for their own reasons.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Except for the Rodney, there were several explosions from the other four battleships.

Among them, the Nelson suffered the most damage, with as many as 6 torpedoes hitting it. The violent explosion blew the Nelson's hull into a huge gap, and the turbulent sea immediately tilted it. The attack of 6 torpedoes is enough to cause it to suffer irreversible damage, which is also deadly enough for the Nelson.

Except for the doomed Nelson, the Malaya suffered the most damage. The Elizabeth V, which was hit by three torpedoes, had two large holes in its hull. Filling Haishu and submerging the power chamber and fuel chamber, the fuel floats on the surface of the sea, which is even more frightening.

As for the war exhaustion and the Sovereign, both of them were hit by torpedoes, but fortunately, only one torpedo was hit, which is a great fortune in misfortune.
