Chapter 798 Rocket vs Destroyer

Rocket Launcher vs Destroyer

On the riverside that was completely shrouded in thick smoke, groups of soldiers were building various fortifications on the riverside with high morale under the command of commanders at all levels. At the same time, along the riverside that was several kilometers long, ships and ships

With the efforts of the soldiers, ferries and bamboo rafts were launched one after another, making final preparations for the possible cross-river battle... In short, the situation on the entire riverside gave people a sense of

I have a very strong feeling that the East China Field Army, which is gathering strength and strength, is preparing to launch the long-prepared battle across the Yangtze River from here. Then, it will cross the dangerous Yangtze River in one fell swoop and regain the important town of Zhenjiang.

Compared with the bustle of the several-kilometer-long riverside, the dense forests less than one kilometer away from the riverside are surprisingly quiet. However, what is unexpected is that behind this tranquility, there are countless murderous intentions hidden.

.

Under the cover of dense woods, large-caliber artillery pieces were scattered in groups of two in the huge dense forest. At the same time, the black muzzles of the guns were pointing high, without exception, at the Yangtze River one kilometer away.

channel.

And right on the top of the hill where countless artillery pieces were deployed, the commander of the artillery column, Chen Guangrong, was holding up the telescope in his hand and staring motionlessly at the river a few kilometers away. Of course, the artillery positions scattered along the river were also

within his area of ​​concern.

"Commander, according to the latest news from the headquarters, in one hour, the Japanese Jiang Defense Fleet, a total of five destroyers, will enter the pocket array carefully prepared for him by our artillery column..." Seeing the silent man next to him,

Commander, the artillery staff officer beside him reminded him with a kind face.

"One hour... We have carefully prepared the battle for several days. In one hour, we will see the outcome. Chief of Staff, each artillery regiment, have they rushed to the scheduled combat location in accordance with the headquarters' pre-war order..." Chen Guangrong asked

road.

"According to the order of the headquarters, the rocket artillery regiment, 150mm howitzer regiment, and 150mm cannon regiment, as our offensive troops, were hidden in the center of the pocket formation, respectively No. 3, 4, and 5 artillery positions. When the Japanese Jiang Defense Fleet entered the ambush

Circle, after all five destroyers stopped moving forward, they suddenly launched an attack. Through a sudden round of artillery fire, they tried to cripple all five Japanese destroyers and make them lose the ability to resist."

"As for the 105 mm cannon regiment and the 120 mm howitzer regiment, they were deployed at both ends of the pocket formation, respectively Artillery Positions No. 1 and 2. After the Japanese Jiang Defense Fleet entered the pocket, they blocked the entire Yangtze River channel with continuous and intensive firepower.

, all five warships of the Jiang Defense Fleet were blocked in the encirclement..." the chief of staff replied.

"Very good, it's still the order just now. All artillery positions must pay attention to concealment. Before receiving the order from the headquarters, any artillery position is prohibited from firing in advance to expose the target..." Chen Guangrong ordered with a serious face.

"Yes, Commander..."

In the blink of an eye, an hour has passed. Although the entire battlefield has been shrouded in thick smoke created by various people. However, one kilometer away, on the Yangtze River channel, five plumes of thick black smoke shot straight into the sky.

It was still clearly displayed on the river bank, in the telescopes of all the commanders of the East China Field Army.

I saw five destroyers arranged in a line, rushing towards the predetermined battlefield. Chen Guangrong, as the commander-in-chief of this artillery battle, had already been shrouded in excitement on his face.

Seeing that the distance in front of him was getting closer and closer, and he could vaguely see the hull of the destroyer, Commander Chen Guangrong gave a decisive order to the chief of staff beside him.

"Chief of Staff, inform all artillery positions to prepare for battle immediately and wait for the latest combat order from the headquarters..."

And at this moment, Commander Chen Guangrong, with a group of staff, stood in his headquarters, motionless, watching the Japanese Jiang Defense Fleet getting closer and closer to the battlefield. Located in the flagship command room of the Jiang Defense Fleet, Commander

Colonel Muto, the officer, also watched every move by the river with a confident expression.

"Reporting to your Excellency, Commander, according to the observation from the lookout post, in ten minutes we will enter the crossing area of ​​the China East China Field Army. The captains of each ship will report whether to slow down the speed of our fleet and launch it in a combat state to guard against the possibility of the Chinese

The artillery fire that appeared..." The adjutant carefully walked to Colonel Muto and reported.

"Yo Xi, after a day and night of sailing, if you are not in a hurry, I am starting to get anxious. Now that we have arrived at the battlefield, let those cunning Chinese people take a look at the military might of our Jiang Defense Fleet. Order all warships to enter

Level one combat readiness, be ready to fire at any time. The warship speed will be reduced from the current 18 knots to five knots, and be ready to meet the enemy at any time." As the order was issued, a confident smile quickly appeared on Colonel Muto's face.

face.

"Ha Yi, I will go and give the order right away."

In an instant, a loud siren began to sound in the small fleet. At the same time, large-caliber naval guns as thick as a bowl, under the control of the gunner, quickly took off their gun jackets and fired into the black holes.

The muzzle of the cannon faced both sides of the Yangtze River, revealing its ferocious face to the world.

Looking at the warship's two main guns with a diameter of 200 mm erected on the bow. Standing in the command room, Colonel Muto's confident smile became even thicker. Because he believed that only with the two main guns on the bow,

With artillery, it can destroy any targets on both sides of the Yangtze River and on the positions of the East China Field Army.

However, at this moment, he was so confident that he had no idea. Just when he was full of confidence, there were more than a hundred large-caliber artillery in the dense forests on both sides of the Yangtze River, aiming their black muzzles at what he looked like.

'Very powerful' Jiangfang fleet...

"Commander, the flagship led by the Little Devil Jiang Defense Fleet has entered the pocket formation..."

"Commander, all the destroyers of the Japanese Jiang Defense Fleet have entered the pocket formation..."

"Okay, our opportunity has finally come. Order No. 1 and No. 2 artillery positions to shoot at Zhu Yuan as scheduled and open fire immediately. Stop the little Japanese's Jiang Defense Fleet in the encirclement. Order No. 3 and No. 4,

Artillery Position No. 5, fire at Zhu Yuan as scheduled, and be ready to fire at any time..." A sneer quickly appeared on the corner of Chen Guangrong's mouth. He gave a very decisive order to the chief of staff behind him.

"Yes, Commander..."

A deafening sound of artillery fire rang out in the dense forests on both sides of the Yangtze River. Two artillery regiments scattered in various artillery positions, with a total of more than 70 large-caliber artillery pieces, let out a thunderous roar almost at the same time. At the same time, seven

More than a dozen large-caliber artillery shells, with a huge whistling sound, hit the narrow Yangtze River channel.

In an instant, before the little devils on the five destroyers could react from the shock, the sound of intensive shell explosions reached everyone's ears from both ends of the entire fleet.

Of course, the flagship traveling at the forefront of the entire fleet was, without any surprise, the first to be hit by the cannonballs. Although none of the dense cannonballs accurately landed on the warship. However, a stream of waves were blown up by the cannonballs.

The water column still fell on the warship deck with a plop, frightening the officers and soldiers who had not been on the battlefield for a long time.

Being suddenly attacked, Colonel Muto was very angry. However, in just a moment, a sneer appeared on his face. Because, after suffering a blow, and then relying on the ability of his Jiang Defense Fleet, he immediately

Counterattack and quickly destroy the Chinese artillery positions, this is exactly what I want to see.

Thinking of this, Colonel Muto no longer hesitated and gave a very decisive order to the slightly pale chief of staff next to him.

"Baga, the cunning Chinese people dare to attack our Jiang Defense Fleet. Order the destroyers to stop their advance immediately. Use the main guns of the warships to destroy the Chinese artillery positions in the shortest possible time. Let me tell you, I don't want to see the second round of Chinese artillery shells.

, once again fell to the side of the fleet..."

"Hayi..."

Just when the confident Colonel Muto held up his binoculars and prepared to see the complete destruction of the China artillery position, something incredible happened to him. Five warships, under the attack of bullets from both sides, had just stopped moving and

When he turned his black gun muzzle to the other side and prepared to fight back, a sharp whistling sound reached his ears again.

"Your Excellency, Commander, what is that..." At the reminder of the adjutant beside him, Colonel Muto quickly looked in the direction of the whistling sound.

In the dense forest two kilometers away, cannonballs with orange-red flames, like fireworks, quickly rushed into the sky. Before he could react from the shock, hundreds of them, which he had never seen before,

The cannonball that passed by landed on top of his head and hit the warship he was on.

For a moment, the deck of the warship, which had been orderly just now, suddenly heard a burst of dense explosions. And under the shocked gaze of Colonel Muto, huge fireballs began to soar on the deck as the shells exploded.

It rose up and quickly covered the small deck.

"Nani, what kind of artillery shells are these? How come the Chinese have so many artillery pieces? Quick, order the troops to put out the fire immediately. Artillery, fight back immediately. We must destroy the Chinese artillery positions..." Seeing it in front of you, quickly

The deck was swept away by balls of fire. Colonel Muto, who was still confident just now, immediately showed a look of despair on his face. Then, he roared loudly to the adjutant beside him.

However, just as he finished speaking, a staff officer covered in gunpowder smoke rushed into the command room with a panicked look on his face. Then, he reported with a horrified look on his face.

"Your Excellency, Commander, something happened... In the attack just now, the entire deck was hit by at least forty Chinese artillery shells. All the gunners and damage control personnel on the deck of our warship were almost destroyed.

The blow... At present, all personnel on our warship, except for a few people in the engine room, have survived, and the remaining combat personnel have all been killed..."
