There is no doubt that if the eastern air force and carrier-based aircraft had only this strength, those American warships would not die so ugly.

Anti-aircraft firepower is very important, but it is only important. It is the aircraft carrier that ultimately determines the battle.

"Attack the destroyers and cruisers in the northeast of the Geely State Navy, where the formation is relatively loose."

After observing the situation on the battlefield, the commander found a breakthrough. The just-opened attack inevitably changed the Geely’s fleet formation, and the relatively sparse air defense firepower was obviously very beneficial to their attack. .

Immediately, the Air Force seized this fighter and launched an offensive. This time their goal was very clear. Starting from the periphery of the fleet, they were tearing apart their defenses layer by layer.

The situation of Geely Chinese cruisers are generally between 4200 tons and 4600 tons. They have four 4 105 dual-purpose guns, 8 88mm anti-aircraft guns and four quadruple 40mm anti-aircraft guns, but their speed is much faster than that of capital ships. Many, relatively difficult to hit, but the battleships are all in the center of the team, withstands layers of protection, and even the timing of bombing is not well grasped.

There are two destroyers next to the cruiser Lord Expert in the northeast corner. Their firepower is also very strong, but they are still somewhat inadequate compared to these air forces.

Thirty-six fighters, 18 bombers and 9 torpedo attack planes focused on this squad. Under the firepower of the fighters, the anti-aircraft firepower of the Royal Lord was suppressed, especially the anti-aircraft machine guns almost directly misfired.

The bombers launched attacks from all directions. One of the bombers was hit by Rinku and disintegrated, but the first remaining five were found opportunities.

Five armor-piercing shells were dropped from an altitude of five hundred meters, and then the bombers roared over the Royal Lord.

"Left full rudder! Hurry up! Avoid it! No no! Right full rudder!"

The captain commanded loudly, but the chief engineer simply ignored his request, because he found something more dangerous was attacking them.

"Captain! There are torpedoes!"

Originally, he was nervously avoiding aerial bombs in the air, but from the corner of his eye, he saw several fish attack aircraft flying by, and at this time, observers were also frantically warning him.

"Boom! Boom!"

Three 500 kg aerial bombs hit them. The entire hull of the ship shook tremendously. The armor-piercing projectiles directly tore open their weak decks and exploded inside. Suddenly, a huge fire ignited, and thick smoke enveloped them. Over the cruiser.

The damage pipe immediately led the faucet to rush up and started to put out the fire. The hot air waves and poisonous smoke can be felt even when wearing a gas mask...

"What are you doing? You can avoid one just now!" 2018 novel www.2018xsxs.com

The captain had just been thrown directly to the ground, and the huge shaking made his footing unsteady, and his head was broken, but he immediately got up and rebuked.

"Torpedo! Captain Torpedo!"

The chief engineer was still turning right at this time, turning and speaking.

"A torpedo was found on the starboard side!"'

In the chaos, the observer’s warning finally arrived, but it was too late. There were six 610MM torpedoes, which appeared fan-shaped and attacked them. Even if five were successfully avoided, they were hit by one in the end.

"boom!"

The seemingly powerful waterline armor is no different from scrap paper under the attack of such a large aerial torpedo.

In the huge bombardment, there is an inaudible sound of broken eggs.

"Crack! Crack!"

Except for a five-meter-long hole torn near the narcissus, it was only a matter of time before the keel of the entire cruiser broke and turned into cold sauce.

The sea water has begun to rush into the ship's hull frantically. If there is no such a big hole, there is no way to damage the tube. Even if the sealed cabin is closed, it will not help. This damage is not as simple as a cabin. The torpedo has caused a huge amount in the ship body Destroyed, almost bombed the ship’s boiler room...

The captain finally chose to abandon the ship. As for how many people can survive, only God knows...

Time went on, even if the Geely people discovered the tactics of the Eastern Air Force's layer-by-layer stripping, there was nothing to do. The protective formation could not be changed easily, and only faster destroyers could be used for support, but the effect was only average.

In this case, if the formation is changed rashly, it is likely to cause weak protection in other directions, and the air force's mobility is obviously much better than that of warships.

Tovey could only watch as his cruiser destroyer was destroyed one by one.

He ordered to get closer to each other as much as possible to provide more support between the pairs, but all this is in vain...

When an aircraft carrier of the Geely Chinese was destroyed, the Eastern Air Force swaggered away. It was not that they did not want to continue. First, although the results were rich, the losses were also very large, and the ammunition was almost exhausted, and the sky was almost dark. Afterwards, the offensive in the dark obviously won't have a high hit rate, and it is impossible to achieve particularly good results.

Although the enemy ship is also blind and furious, but the anti-aircraft firepower is originally based on luck...
