People in ooo: I, the forbidden alchemist
Chapter 84
This attack on the Japanese fleet will be divided into three attack waves.
Each attack wave is about 20-30 minutes apart.
The first of these attack waves consisted of 27 B-29 strategic bombers with modified magazines.
The second attack wave consisted of two groups of 60 SBD5 dive bombers.
The third attack wave was the remaining SBD5 dive bomber group.
There is also a reason for this arrangement.
First of all, the Fritz X guided bomb has relatively high requirements for the battlefield environment.
First of all, there should be no thick clouds and thick smoke.
If all of them are on the same page, the chaotic battlefield is not conducive to the play of the Fritz X-bomb.
This is where the current limitations of precision-guided weapons lie.
After all, this thing is not the advanced radar guidance of later generations.
Rather, it's just a radio command plus visual guidance.
So they act as the first attack wave.
Not only can it disrupt the formation of the Japanese fleet, but it can also severely damage or even sink their capital ships in the first place.
After all, the Fritz X-missile bomb weighed 1.5 tons.
The Roman battleship in history sank directly after two hits.
Although there are reasons for luck here, this is also a big guy with a full load displacement of 46,000 tons.
Being able to sink directly in two pieces also shows how powerful it is.
The second wave of fighters was the most numerous.
It is mainly used for mending.
The third wave of attack is a sweeping operation, and the knife is replenished after the knife to ensure that nothing is missed.
If the captain of the 2nd Submarine Group had known about this, he might have fainted in the toilet crying.
In terms of the essentials of wolf pack tactics, they just have to wait for the evening and the opportunity will always arise.
This is a direct transfer of the results to the newly established HNA.
Later, the commander of the First Bomber Wing of Hainan Airlines directly sent a pennant to the captain.
This also made the 2nd Submarine Brigade laughed at for many years.
Today's weather is very good, although it cannot be described as clear and cloudless, but the clouds are also very thin.
Even at an altitude of three or four thousand meters, you can clearly see the sea.
Twenty-seven B-29s were divided into three attack formations.
A total of 9 bombers per formation.
The 1st Bomber Formation was responsible for the Kongo-class battleships.
The 2nd Bomber Formation was responsible for the aircraft carrier Fengxiang.
The 3rd bomber formation was responsible for the cruisers, as well as 28 other destroyers.
In short, whichever battleship has a heavy tonnage, it is right to hit whichever one.
"The radar found the target, and all the crews followed me. "
When there were still tens of kilometers from the Japanese fleet.
The B-29's radar spotted targets at sea.
Twenty-seven massive B-29 bombers began to adjust their altitude and headed for the target sea area.
Tens of kilometers away, they did not take long.
By looking at them, they were able to see a group of ships floating on the surface of the sea in the distance.
The group leader immediately said: "All formations act in accordance with the battle plan. "
Immediately, his formation began to accelerate towards the target fleet.
And not far from them, 24P-51D Mustang fighters flew in the air at a distance of about 2000 meters.
On the way, they did not encounter reconnaissance planes sent by Japanese aircraft carriers.
But with the radar, they can easily avoid it.
This also led to the fact that within visual range, the Japanese fleet only discovered the incoming aircraft group.
"Is this the plane sent by our aircraft carrier?"
"Baga, how can our plane be so big. "
"And whose is this for?"
yes, so whose is this?
"Bagaya Road, it's the plane of the Zhina people, quickly pull the battle alert. "
Immediately, the battle cruiser Kirishima, which was the first to discover the group, sounded a battle alarm.
The captain of the battlecruiser Kirishima hurried out of the conning tower.
"Yaga, what's going on?"
"Captain, the China's plane is coming, over there. "
When they looked up and saw a huge group of 27 bombers, they were stunned.
"Bagaya Road, it's their big bomber, stupid Zhina, do you think the bomber can deal with us?"
Then he continued: "Order the fleet to take our ship as the center, change the wheeled air defense formation, and concentrate firepower to take down the winged things for me. "
As the captain of the battleship Kirishima, he was very uninterested in aircraft carriers and very.
It was not believed that these winged things could pose a threat to heavily armored battleships.
Although he admits that these incoming planes are somewhat large.
He was very shocked by the aviation strength of the Northeast Army.
But that's about it.
"What about the aircraft carrier Fengxiang? Let them send fighter planes into the air to intercept them immediately. "
Needless to say, now the entire Fengxiang aircraft carrier has begun to get busy.
Soon a Nakajima-3 shipboard fighter taxied from the deck and took off.
As the first practical carrier-based fighter of the Japanese Navy.
It has a top speed of only 241 km/h and is armed with only two 7.7mm machine guns.
The entire Fengxiang aircraft carrier is equipped with a total of 8 aircraft, of which 3 are in reserve.
However, when they took off, eight Mustang fighters flew out of the Mustang fighter formation that participated in the escort not far away.
They would never allow Japanese fighters to interfere with bomber groups to drop bombs.
Soon the first three-plane bomber group flew over the Japanese fleet.
At this time, the anti-aircraft fire of the Japanese army began to roar.
Clouds of black smoke burst out of the sky, but it didn't have much effect on the B-29 in flight.
In this era, anti-aircraft artillery needed at least 2,000 rounds of shells to hit a fighter.
From here it is possible to know how low the hit rate of anti-aircraft artillery is.
It wasn't until the advent of VT proximity fuses that the situation improved dramatically.
This is one of the reasons why the VT fuze can be called a black technology invention.
However, this time, the black technology of the B-29 strategic bomber is not only the Fritz X guided bomb.
There is also the MK15 Norton scope.
The explosion of the shells disturbed the airflow, causing the fighter to shake even more.
The Captain himself came to the Norton scope to work on it.
When the crosshairs were aimed at the battleship Kirishima that was spraying anti-aircraft shells.
He decisively pressed the bomb button.
The Norton scope automatically calculates the two core data: the angle of the bomb and the angle of the projectile.
Therefore, bomb dropping has become a fool's operation, as long as the crosshair is aimed at the target, and the hit rate is also increased exponentially.
It is claimed to be able to hit the ground at an altitude of 9,000 meters.
If this thing is added to the Fritz X precision-guided bomb.
The effectiveness is that 1+1 is greater than 2.
The Fritz X-shell moves downward in free fall at extremely high speeds.
Through the Norton sight, you can clearly see the five glowing dots on the tail of the bomb.
The bomb, which had four radio-controlled rudder surfaces, was directed at the stern of the battleship Kirishima under the fine-tuning of the radio command.
"Ahhh......hhh Hit down, hit down. "
After seeing an aerial bomb fall at high speed on their battleship.
Suddenly the anti-aircraft gun emplacements in the tail were in a hurry.
The Fritz X-shot, which fell at a speed of kilometers per hour, hit.
It landed directly and accurately on the deck between the third and fourth turrets of the Kirishima battleship stern.
The horizontal deck of more than 40 mm was smashed directly out of a large hole.
The Japanese sailors who sprinted past here disappeared directly.
After piercing several decks, the 1.5-ton armor-piercing bomb landed at the bottom of the steam turbine nacelle.
"Boom ......"
In the frightened eyes of the engineer soldiers, the huge bomb exploded.
The furious energy tore apart everything around it.
4 The steam turbine received a ripple, was torn apart and destroyed under the onslaught of furious energy.
Soaring flames erupted from the gap in the top, accompanied by water vapor.
In the midst of the violent explosion, the tail of the battleship Kirishima was lifted out of the water.
This wave of explosions not only destroyed the engine room of the battleship Kirishima, but also caused considerable damage to the keel in the tail.
At the same time, tons and tons of seawater poured in along the huge gap at the bottom.
"Captain, the engine room was blown up by a hit. "
"Baga, what about the damage management? Go to the rescue, go quickly. "
The captain looked at the smoke rising from the tail and shouted hysterically. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
This bomb directly shattered his original pride.
At the same time, he fell into deep fear.
Their bombs were so fierce, and the first one hit the Kirishima battleship.
This one, the entire Kirishima is not dead but also disabled.
Even if it can be dragged back now, it won't be repaired in a few years.
But did the B-29 bomber in the sky give him this chance?
"yes, Captain, we hit it, we hit it. "
The captain who personally handled the work also had an excited smile on his face.
"Pull up the altitude and return home. "
The size of the Fritz X bomb was so large that even the magazine of the 29 bomber could only be mounted on one.
The main thing is that this modification was a bit rushed.
If you design a special magazine hanger, you can still mount four bombs.
The first throw and the first hit, which also greatly inspired the confidence of the other crew members.
Soon two more Fritz X shells were dropped almost simultaneously.
After the engine room was blown up, the battleship Kirishima became a target for floating in the sea.
This is much less difficult for them to operate.
It can improve the accuracy rate by at least 30%.
"Woo woo woo ......"
Bombs falling at high speed emit a loud whining sound.
This sounded like a talisman to the crew of the battleship Kirishima.
The Kirishima may have had a little better luck this time.
One of the Fritz X-shells and the battleship Kirishima passed by.
A huge explosion unleashed a monstrous column of water.
Despite the direct hit, the huge explosion also tore a hole in the side chord.
The other bomb hit the chimney in the middle of the ship.
After tearing through layers of armor, the Fritz X bomb fell to the boiler compartment to the point.
"Boom ......"
The explosion sounded again.
Once again, the entire battleship Kirishima shook violently in a huge explosion.
Huge smoke poured out of the hole in the middle of the ship, accompanied by the skyrocketing fire.
In a short time, a huge thick smoke enveloped the entire battleship.
The sailors who survived the explosion escaped the explosion, but not the thick smoke.
Just a few breaths can make people dizzy.
Howling for more than ten seconds, the smoke can kill people directly.
"Damn, how do we aim, it doesn't matter, let's shoot first. "
Three B-29 bombers of the second group dropped bombs one after another.
Three Fritz X-shells fell again.
The sight of the battleship Kirishima frightened the Japanese sailors of the entire fleet.
Looking at the giant ships at sea shrouded in thick smoke, they were all shocked.
Are they suspicious of the magic of these bombers at an altitude of several thousand meters?
Why was it able to hit the Kirishima so accurately?
They saw that the other side dropped three aerial bombs, and two of them hit.
The other one is just a little off.
This hit rate can no longer be described as terrifying.
Before they could react, the aircraft carrier Fengxiang was also attacked.
Three Fritz X-bombs rained down from the sky like a god's palm.
"Boom... Rumble... Boom ....."
Three huge bombs fell from the sky, all of which hit their targets.
The deck was easily blown through, even the bottom of the ship was blown through, and then a huge explosion occurred in the sea water at the bottom of the ship.
The huge explosion directly lifted the Fengxiang aircraft carrier out of the water.
Then it slammed into the water.
Waves of earth-shattering waves were set off.
Massive amounts of seawater are frantically poured in, and even the watertight cabin can't play a big role.
The Fengxiang was still very lucky.
Due to the fact that the armor was too thin, it was directly penetrated by Fritz X shells.
If there is an explosion inside the hull.
These three bombs were enough to blow it into two or three.
But now it's not much better.
Three aerial bombs fell.
Perhaps because of the smoke problem of 273, two aerial bombs did not hit the target, but landed in the sea next to it.
But one of the bombs was like a godsend.
Falls into the front turret No. 2.
The armor on the roof of the turret, although 200 mm thick, was easily penetrated.
It was also the obstruction of the turret that the penetration of the Fritz X-shell weakened.
But it fell into the ammunition depot.
In the midst of a devastating explosion.
The huge battleship Kirishima was directly blown in two.
The power of the martyrdom gave the battleship a fatal blow.
As a battlecruiser, being able to withstand the fatal blow of three Fritz X-shells is already quite resistant.
"It's sinking, it's sinking. "
In the thick smoke, the battleship Kirishima could be seen as if it had been cut off.
The crew members who saw this scene were very excited and excited.
I didn't expect them to get such a huge result in the first attack.
Then the crew set their eyes on the Fengxiang aircraft carrier, which was smoking and on fire.
Several Fritz X-shells fell one after the other.
This aircraft carrier, which is only over 10,000 tons, can withstand such an attack.
Although only two hits were made under their dodge.
But it also gave it a fatal blow.
The unstoppable rush of sea water.
In the midst of a desperate struggle, within a few minutes, the aft of the deck was cocked, and the foredeck was already submerged in the sea.
The two main battleships were completely destroyed.
But there were still more than 10 B-29 strategic bombers that did not drop bombs.
So they set their sights on the three Nagara-class light cruisers.
As for the destroyers of one or two thousand tons, we will talk about it after the three light cruisers are sent to the bottom of the sea.
Even the three Nagara-class cruisers were already trying hard to move around the sea to avoid the bombs from the sky.
But if you can't stand these bombs, you will change the course.
A 1.5-ton heavy armor-piercing bomb was smashed down.
Where can the Nagara-class cruiser, which is only about 5,000 tons, be able to withstand it.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment, these three Nagara-class light cruisers did not escape the fate of sinking.
By the time the last B-29 had left, it had been more than 20 minutes.
And there are no more floating battleships on the sea.
There were only Japanese crews, sailors, lifeboats, and debris and stains floating on the sea.
When 60 SBD5 dive bombers arrived on the scene, they were dumbfounded.
"Where's the battleship?
"Damn, didn't you leave us a single little trash fish?"
"I thought I could start a meal, but I didn't leave any soup. "
"Aren't there some little devils on the sea? "
Turn grief and anger into strength, and adhere to the principle of not letting go of any little devil sailor.
Sixty SBD5 dive bombers began to bomb Japanese sailors on the surface of the sea, indiscriminately bombing and strafing.
The P-51D Mustang escort group on the side couldn't sit still and joined the ranks.
There are no survivors of this battle.
