As time went by, one after another Citi fighter was shot down. Some could not control their stature and fell into the sea. The pilot had to choose to parachute, and more Being hit directly on the air ladder, or the pilot was directly killed and out of control, the resistance of the Citizens seemed a little pale and weak in the face of the superior strength and performance of Chinese fighters.

In just a few waves, there were only eleven fighter planes left to attack the Citiman, and the bombers and fish attack planes had all been destroyed, and there was no threat to China's aircraft carrier formation.Although the Citiman’s fighters dispersed, it only increased the difficulty of the pursuit. The battle was over after ten minutes, and there was no need for other fighters to forcibly take off to meet the enemy...

After Citi’s second round of carrier-based aircraft was easily annihilated, the battleships of the two sides also began to fight. In fact, the second round of carrier-based aircraft’s attack was not without results. They successfully disrupted China’s plan. The support of the carrier-based aircraft to the battleship detachment was postponed.

Although Citi’s battleships don’t consider China’s old-fashioned battleships in their eyes, they dare not ignore them and force them to intersect. They still need to pass the battleships before they dare to pass by them unless the fleet is divided into two. One aircraft carrier detoured a long way to pursue China, and the other went around to solve the immediate trouble.

Huaguo’s Changcheng-class battleship uses a 35-caliber 410MM main gun. Although it is more powerful than a 45-caliber 365MM main gun, it is still very difficult to defeat the main armor of a South Dakota-class battleship at a long distance. , Especially, near the Narcissus, the conning tower and the main artillery collided, unless the distance was narrowed to about six kilometers.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At a distance of 16,000 meters, eight battleships and ten battlecruisers respectively formed two battle lines and opened fire one after another. In terms of design accuracy, they are confident that no country’s navy can compare to it except the Johns Navy.

Although the Citiman’s main guns were 45 times more stable at this distance and 45 times 410 mm guns, they were still the first to fire.

Armour-piercing projectiles weighing several hundred kilograms and high-explosive projectiles whizzed through the air. Even with the new radar fire control device, the gunner has experienced many battles and the training intensity is extremely high, but it is still only on the Citiman’s battleship IV. On Friday, a 100-meter-high water column was stirred up from a hundred meters away, and no straddle shot was formed.

"3 degrees south east, 500 meters away,"

The observer reported the data.The gunner needs to re-adjust based on the observer's data and his own judgment.

Even if the range of the main gun is more than 25 kilometers, the environment on the sea is complex and changeable, affected by the curvature of the earth, air resistance, and even wind and humidity.

The data given by the observer and the radar can only be used as a reference, and more often require the gunner to make judgments based on experience and actual sea conditions.

Therefore, in the era of giant ship artillery and the original aircraft carrier era, although the role of sights is important, the experience of the gunner is more important. For example, in some novels, several battleships that are slightly higher than one or two grades are invincible in the first battle. The plot is impossible.Fun recitation book www.qusoshu.com

Therefore, Wang Guangxu paid great attention to the cultivation of theoretical knowledge and the establishment of a training system from the beginning. At the very beginning, he invested a lot of money to establish China’s naval power through three naval battles, and passed five naval battles for 20 years. Establish the status of maritime supremacy.

Even so, it is very difficult to directly hit the Citiman’s battleship at a distance of 16,000 meters.

Need to be adjusted.And at this distance, affected by the curvature of the earth, even the mast of the enemy ship cannot be seen. In the absence of precise guidance, in addition to sights and observations, it depends more on experience, judgment and even luck.

"The second round of test shots! Ready! Three! Two! One! Fire!"

At this distance, only the main guns of capital ships can fire, so naturally the oldest battle line salvo tactics are used.Of course, as the rotating turret has long been equipped with the navy, there is no longer a need to seize the side of the T head.

The Chinese navy relies on the advantages of quantity and accuracy to fight against the Citizens. It concentrates its firepower on a few of the Citi battleships first, and strives to severely damage them. If it is one-to-one, it is simply dead.

"Damn yellow-skinned monkey! It's still so arrogant. When the performance of the battleship is at a disadvantage, I will fire first. Order the ships to fire."

After seeing that the Chinese battleship fired first, Hayes looked bad, as if it was the Chinese navy that fired first, regardless of whether their battleship performance was at a disadvantage or advantage.He hopes that his battleship will give these Chinese people a severe lesson, knowing that their performance is completely ahead.

As long as he was given a certain amount of time, it was enough to sink all these arrogant Chinese naval battleships, leaving none.

"Yes! General!"

The communications officer delivered the order immediately.

The distance between the two sides was fifteen kilometers. Citi’s Massachusetts and Indiana battleships fired first. Three 157MM main guns and six 410MM artillery fired volleys.

With the orange-red flames of the muzzle flashing, 18 shells flew away with a huge howling sound, thinking of the Chinese fleet...... ..
