The Beacon of Laiyang Metal

Chapter 79 The destruction of the mixed fleet is complete

After experiencing the first wave of air strikes, the remaining five surviving Japanese warships finally realized that they were about to become the next target of air strikes.

Ignoring the soldiers who crashed into the sea and asked for help after other ships were destroyed, these five ships began to flee crazily at a high speed under the orders of Kishida Kazuhiko, trying to escape from the sea before the second wave of air attacks came.

In order to strengthen the firepower, except for the few Type 25 mm anti-aircraft cannons on each warship, all the soldiers in the cabin, whether they were logistics personnel or the marines on board, were urgently recruited to the deck. To strengthen anti-air firepower.

The three-year-old heavy machine gun and the Taisho 11-type light machine gun originally used for ground combat were also supported by the human body bracket, and the muzzle was changed to shoot into the air. In terms of momentum, it was quite similar to the Rabbit family during the crisis in the Strait. The manner in which land guns are mounted on ships.

In addition, even the two 75mm naval guns located at the bow of the destroyer were adjusted to the maximum elevation angle in an attempt to strengthen the ship's firepower and withstand this wave of air attacks.

At this time, as the planes in the sky continued to make "buzzing" sounds, Kazuhiko Kishida, who was located on the destroyer island, had a look of despair on his face.

After experiencing the previous air strikes, Kishida Kazuhiko, an old devil, knew clearly that with the firepower of these five warships alone, without reinforcements, it would be difficult to escape a new round of attacks from enemy planes. The densely packed soldiers on the deck preparing to shoot into the air were just deceiving themselves.

Even if we call for help through the base camp, if the Army Air Forces plane at Luda Airport takes off now, it will take at least an hour and a half to reach this sea area, not to mention that the planes at Luda Airport have no night combat capabilities, and it is still far from dawn. There are still at least two hours left, which means it will be at least 1 hours before reinforcements arrive.

I don't know whether it was because the blood that had been splashed during the massacre soaked into his clothes, or because he had anticipated the coming destruction. The pair of white gloves that had been soaked in red on Kishida Kazuhiko's hands began to tremble uncontrollably. stand up.

However, the Japanese nature of gamblers made Kishida Kazuhiko unwilling to die here. He believed that it was only a matter of time before he relied on his intelligence to further enter the ranks of generals.

As for slogans such as sacrificing one's life for one's country and being loyal to the emperor, they are just deceiving the brainwashed lower-level officers and soldiers. At least few of the senior Japanese generals whom Kishida Kazuhiko knows have this consciousness. These senior generals are without exception. More They all consider their own and family interests.

As for His Majesty the Emperor, haha. If they really offend these powerful generals, they might not dare to launch what the Chinese call the "Qingjun side", and then cultivate an obedient emperor.

Even at the moment of life and death, due to the deep gap between sea and land, Kishida Kazuhiko did not choose to go directly to the Brigade Kwantung Army Headquarters for help. Instead, he chose to seek help from the nearer and farther away. After going around in a circle, he sent the request for help message to the country through the radio. Base camp.

At the same time that Kishida Kazuhiko sent a call for help, various fighter planes formed an attack formation after returning to high altitude, and then began a second wave of attacks on the Japanese fleet below.

With little Japanese anti-aircraft firepower left on the sea, the first to attack this time was the "Stuka" dive bomber. The gray-black fuselage painting gave the aircraft good cover in the night, unless the Japanese invaders The searchlight can directly lock onto the fuselage, otherwise it would be difficult to accurately detect the aircraft's flight position in the vast night with naked eyes.

The winged tiger pattern painted on both sides of the fuselage was too realistic. With the light emitted by the searchlights of the little Japanese on the ground, I looked over and saw that the winged tiger image was painted on the fuselage. It seems to be really alive, ready to use its "claws" to tear apart all the obstacles in front of it.

Accompanied by the harsh roar of the "Stuka", a group of 15 "Stuka" bombers, two in a group, began to swoop down towards the Japanese fleet from high altitude.

"dong dong dong"

"Da da da"

"Pah hook. Pah hook"

At this time, the Japanese sailors on the fleet were like frightened birds. After discovering that the enemy planes hovering overhead had begun a new round of attacks, due to excessive panic, many new sailors had not waited for the commander on the ship to give the order to shoot. He raised the 38-type gun in his hand and started shooting wildly.

Immediately, a chain reaction was triggered. The ready-to-fire rapid-fire guns, light and heavy machine guns, 75mm naval guns, etc. on each ship kept firing against the pitch-black night, because there was no way to determine the exact location of the enemy aircraft. The firepower of these anti-air shots can only be fired at the general direction of the "buzzing" of the aircraft.

For a moment, a series of artillery shells and bullets pierced the night sky, leaving dazzling tracks. After interweaving in the night sky, they finally fell powerlessly to the sea surface due to exhaustion of kinetic energy, as if heralding the final arrival of the Japanese fleet. fate.

The Japanese ships on the sea burst out firepower in an instant, looking like "fire hedgehogs" from a distance from the air, and they were quite impressive in terms of movement and movement.

But when the results of the battle were confirmed, it was a little bit louder than the rain. After one round of shooting, not even the hair of the fighter plane was touched, let alone the delusional attempt to shoot down one or two enemy fighter planes.

At this time, as the "Stuka" dive bomber got closer and closer, it finally dived almost 90 degrees vertically until it reached an altitude of about 100 meters above the warship before it began to release the 2 bomb racks on the wing. A 250kg aerial bomb.

After discovering that the aerial bomb under the wing was successfully released, the pilot flying the "Stuka" immediately corrected the original dive flight attitude to an upward acceleration and climb, trying to stay away from the dangerous airspace above the warship as soon as possible.

After all, it is not fun to have nearly 2 kilograms of TNT charges explode inside two aerial bombs at the same time.

After the two black aerial bombs fell off from under the wing, the ear-piercing whistling sound became louder and louder in the eyes of the Japanese sailors below who were full of fear and despair. In the end, it stayed in the air for less than 2 seconds and hit the island and middle deck of a destroyer below.

After two loud "boom" sounds, two huge mushroom clouds of fire shot into the sky.

The power of the explosion was so great that the Japanese sailors who were originally deployed on the upper deck and used their infantry weapons to perform anti-aircraft missions were instantly swept into the sea by the air waves generated after the explosion before they could even scream.

This time, the simultaneous explosion of two 2-kilogram aerial bombs did not directly break the destroyer into two pieces. However, after being hit by an aerial bomb, the originally towering island was almost instantly flattened to almost the same level as the deck. the height of.

As for the middle deck where a 250kg aerial bomb was also hit, a huge crater nearly 10 meters in diameter with billowing smoke almost cut off the destroyer. Even the keel supporting the hull inside was blown into two. cut.

It can be said that even if the destroyer does not suffer any more attacks, the wind and waves on the sea alone can completely destroy it on the seabed. Obviously, facing this destroyer that had lost any counterattack power, the pilots of the Seventh Division were not prepared to give it any chance of survival.

After another following "Stuka" dive bomber arrived, it easily hit the deck of the already paralyzed destroyer with two aerial bombs, as if it were a fixed target. above.

In the end, after the destroyer Xiaoguizi withstood repeated attacks by four 4-kilogram aerial bombs, the bottom of the ship finally began to deform because it could not withstand the huge water pressure, and the hull began to tilt.

Until there was a "creaking" sound of metal cracking from the bottom of the ship, seawater surged in from the crack in the bottom of the ship, flooding the sealed compartment at the bottom of the ship in less than 2 minutes, until it completely sank to the bottom of the sea.

From the moment the first "Stuka" dive bomber went into attack, it was like blowing the horn of the attack, accompanied by the unique harsh whistling sound of the "Stuka" when it dived and attacked, and "rumble" one after another. A huge explosion resounded across the channel where the Japanese fleet was escaping below.

It was not until 5 minutes later that all 15 30kg aerial bombs carried by these 250 "Stukas" were consumed, then they suddenly flickered their wings and returned to the Gushan Town Military Airport a hundred kilometers away. After repairs, they were ready to Invest in the attack against the Japanese Sixth Division the next day.

After five minutes of repeated attacks by the "Stuka" bomber group, looking back at the sea, from the more than 5 warships at the beginning of the attack, to now, only one seriously injured destroyer is still suffering despite the billowing smoke. With hard support, the so-called mixed fleet of the little devil was completely destroyed in this sea area.

Fragments of ships, corpses of Japanese sailors, and scattered debris can be seen everywhere floating on the sea.

Some of the Japanese sailors who survived after falling into the water were hugging the wreckage of the warship floating on the sea, trying their best not to let the water swallow them up. Their faces were full of fear and despair, and they were no longer surrounded by Kishida Kazuhiko before. The old devil's fanaticism during brainwashing.

At this moment, the remaining seriously injured destroyer was the ship of the old devil Kishida Kazuhiko.

I don't know if it was his luck, or the old devil Kazuhiko Kishida's prayers to their bullshit Amaterasu had an effect. Three sorties of "Stuka" dive bombers were dive bombed at close range by this destroyer. After dodging, only one aerial bomb barely landed on the edge of the bow.

Even so, the terrifying power of the 250-kilogram-class aerial bomb explosion was not something that this 2-ton destroyer could withstand. Just one explosion on the edge of the bow swept away the entire force deployed on the upper deck of the Little Devil.

The command position of the warship located on the bridge was even more shattered by the large amount of debris generated during the explosion. Even the power of the entire destroyer was severely affected, and its top speed dropped from 40 knots to the current 20 knots. Less than.

Looking down from the air, it looks like a slow iron tortoise crawling on the sea.

At this moment, Kishida Kazuhiko, who was affected by shrapnel, began to become shaky just like the severely damaged warship under his feet.

Although Kishida Kazuhiko chose to lie down on the ground to escape immediately after the explosion, but through the huge porthole directly in front of the bridge, a large number of debris generated during the explosion instantly broke through the glass on the porthole while flying at high speed. Immediately afterwards there was a "dinging" noise in the bridge, forming a ricochet.

At this moment, the entire interior of the bridge had been shattered by shrapnel, and there were wailing sounds, and the floor was full of Japanese sailors struggling in pain.

The blood of some of the little devils whose arteries were hit by shrapnel spurted out like fountains. In just a moment, there was no movement, and eventually a small blood puddle was formed on the floor of the bridge.

The severe pain made Kishida Kazuhiko almost unable to stand, and the wailing of the Japanese sailors at his feet made him even more upset. His forehead was full of blood, and the blood stains on his military uniform jacket made Kishida Kazuhiko look even worse. Ferocious and terrifying.

Although there were still some counterattack gunshots at the stern of the ship, Kishida Kazuhiko, who realized that the situation was over, could no longer think of any counterattack at this moment.

He used all his strength to take out a southern-style pistol from the holster on his waist. After turning around staggeringly, he first bowed deeply to his subordinates who were still wailing in pain on the ground, and then said "slap, bang, bang" to his subordinates. He "rolled roll" one by one by looking at the heads of the wounded soldiers who were still moaning in pain on the ground.

After the magazine was empty, Kishida Kazuhiko changed another magazine and repeated the previous action. He did not stop shooting until there was no more howling of wounded soldiers in the bridge.

At this moment, the number of Japanese sailors in the entire bridge, including Kishida Kazuhiko, who could remain standing could be counted with two hands. Only then did Kishida Kazuhiko wipe the blood on his forehead with his hands, and slowly He opened his mouth and said:

"Gentlemen, as soldiers of the Japanese Empire, the time has come to pledge allegiance to the Emperor! His Majesty the Emperor~ Onboard!" After saying that, he ignored the people on the bridge and limped to the side of the bridge. Sit down.

Under Kazuhiko Kishida's confusion, the few Japanese sailors who survived the explosion howled and rushed to the middle of the deck, either raising the Southern-style pistols they were wearing, or picking up the Taisho Eleven scattered on the ground. Type light machine gun, like a mantis using its arms as a cart, howled and fired aimlessly into the dark night.

Yan Jinyun was hovering above the warship and was about to drive the "P39" back to the base. Yan Jinyun saw the scene on the warship below through the night vision goggles. He couldn't help but feel happy. He immediately turned on the transmitter:

"Don't move! These little devils are left to the men. I'll worry whoever touches them! I want to avenge the one who fell into the water yesterday!"

After speaking, without waiting for the other fighters to respond, he piloted the "P39" in a diving posture and fired fiercely at the few Japanese sailors who were still fighting back sporadically in the middle of the deck.

With the power of four 4 mm machine guns and one 12.7 mm machine gun firing simultaneously, the enemy sailors with rifles and light machine guns were just like adults bullying children. It was just a dive. The few in the middle of the deck tried to fight back. The power of the Japanese sailors was shattered.

The scene of the 37mm aircraft cannon and the 12.7mm large-caliber machine gun bullets directly hitting the human body and causing the flesh and blood to fly everywhere is simply too horrific to watch.

Just as Yan Jinyun pulled up the plane and prepared to fire another wave of fire at the bridge, he saw a white flag rising silently at the porthole of the bridge that was already riddled with holes.

Yan Jinyun even thought he was dazzled for a while. After flying closer and confirming again and again, he was sure that the raised flag was indeed the white flag representing surrender, not the little Japanese sun flag.

With excitement and disbelief on his face, Yan Jinyun immediately turned on the transmitter: "Everyone, stop fighting, stop fighting. The little Japs on the warship below have surrendered."

There are too many things going on at the end of the year. I will continue to update after I take annual leave. Please forgive me.
