- "Yura"'s main gun was destroyed, but it still did not lose its attack power. Because it is armed to the teeth, with seven 5.5-inch (140mm) main guns like this. Therefore, when faced with an interception composed of six Chinese navy ships, Toshiki Naokami was not afraid:
According to information obtained before the war, the Chinese Navy's Bohai Fleet in Qingdao only has two surface destroyer fleets, with a maximum of 16 "Jiujiang" class destroyers with a displacement of 1,200 tons.
This kind of destroyer is each equipped with four 4-inch cannons of less than 102mm, and its firepower is much worse than that of our own fleet. Even the "Tanikaze" has three 120mm naval guns. One-on-one or even one-on-two, the "Tanikaze" can have the upper hand. The reason why three warships were lost before was not because of the Chinese navy, but because of concerns about its shore artillery. At that time, the entire fleet had been severely damaged and was at the mouth of the narrowest Bohai Bay.
Now that the sea is open, it is suitable for a head-on confrontation, and it can also test the true strength of the China Navy. If the Kwantung Army Headquarters could accept his request beforehand, he would be confident of annihilating the Chinese Navy with the 17th Squadron alone!
As for the "Haichen" whose firepower rivals our own, don't worry about it: this old cruiser, although equipped with three larger-caliber 150mm German Krupp rapid-fire cannons, its fatal injury is speed - ¡ª¡ªMaximum 19.5 knots. The "Yura" can rely on its high speed - 36 knots to implement guerrilla tactics against it, and use its heavy artillery to severely damage the China destroyer.
He also forgot about another Chinese seaplane carrier, the "Zhenhai". In fact, Ling Xiao also "forgot" it.
When moving forward at full speed, the Chinese Navy's showy status is undoubtedly exposed: the "Jiujiang" class destroyer has 35 knots, the "Haichen" has 19.5 knots, and the "Zhenhai" has only 10.8 knots!
According to the "barrel principle", the overall strength of a team is determined by the lame "plank". The slow speed of the "Zhenhai" is actually a reflection of the strength of the Chinese navy. Slow down, just slow down, let the destroyer go up and drag it first.
"Yura" began to accelerate, and Toshiki decided to adopt loitering tactics to counter the firepower of the Chinese Navy destroyer and avoid the "Haichen", which had stronger firepower. As long as these five faster destroyers can be eliminated, the "Haichen" will not be a problem in the end. Naval battles rely on firepower, armor and speed. The former is basically the same, but the latter two have a huge advantage!
So, the "Yura" and the "Tanikaze" sailed toward the northeast at full speed. The advantage of this is that it can avoid the oncoming Chinese fleet to the greatest extent, attracting its destroyers to catch up, so as to exert the power of its side string guns - its main gun has been destroyed, and it can deal with a large number of Chinese warships The correct solution to the encirclement situation is to fight while walking.
Seeing that the Japanese ship was about to run away, Ling Xiao decisively ordered his five destroyers to speed up the interception. This is a God-given opportunity, giving me the opportunity to use concentrated forces to defeat such a small fleet. If its "United Fleet" comes, no matter how indignant it is, it must be avoided at a distance - just one "King Kong-class" can really sweep the three major fleets!
"Boom!" This is the roar issued by the "Yura". First, enter its range. The advantage of large-caliber long-range is not in vain. It is at least three nautical miles farther than the Chinese navy. The Chinese fleet has to endure five minutes of shelling before it can fight back. This is what all countries favor in the era of giant ships and cannons. The power lies.
¡°These are five minutes of death and five minutes of resignation. Several "Jiujiang" class destroyers have already increased their horsepower, so they are unable to deal with the Japanese ship's shells.
If you don¡¯t encounter it, it¡¯s a blessing; if you encounter it, it¡¯s a bad luck. Only by getting closer can the four-inch cannons of each ship have a chance to work.
After a round of calibration fire, the "Yura"'s cannon began to approach, and you could even hear the impact of the opponent's shells being loaded. However, God is also favoring the Chinese. At least so far, no warships have been injured.
Good luck will run out. At the moment when it crossed the "demarcation line of death", a "Jiujiang" class ship was hit and a huge fire broke out in the sky.
This is the strength of the Japanese navy. The thick smoke also gave Naokami Toshiki some comfort, but the thick smoke also blocked the view. When another Chinese destroyer emerged from the smoke, the two were within range of each other. To be precise, China has the power to fight back.
But don¡¯t be afraid to go straight up. He knew the performance of China's destroyer's three-inch cannon. In naval battles, large-caliber guns had obvious advantages. It's okay if you take a shot from it, but if it is hit by a shot from you, it won't be as simple as blowing a hole.
"Revenge for the Hamakaze and the others!" This is Yura's idea. He ordered the gunnery officer: "Aim and shoot!"
Although only half of the six 140mm cannons can be used, their power is extraordinary. Due to the head-on interception of the Chinese destroyer, the sideguns could not exert their power. Only the three-inch gun on the bow could be used, so Japan had a great advantage.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??Naval battles are not as simple as two being greater than one. There are factors such as sea conditions, comprehensive operations, and luck. The artillery bombardment that often occurred for more than ten nautical miles only had a chance based on luck and incredible advantages.
The last "Jiujiang" class destroyer was unlucky. It bypassed the injured friendly ship and traveled at high speed to quickly bite the Japanese ship and create opportunities for the rear ship. The "Yura" fired two rounds of shelling, but failed to stop it. After approaching about four nautical miles, the ship's cannon finally fired up.
Although it missed, the "Yura" had to give way to one side to allow its naval guns to exert their power. If they stick too close, the difference between a cruiser and a destroyer will be too small.
But this ship is like a fly eyeing a piece of fat. Because it was going straight and fast, it was almost enough to get on the tail of the "Yura".
In a naval battle, getting bitten on the butt is not a good thing. The "Yura" did not have a tail gun, and its butt was a blind spot, so the superiors ordered the warship to turn around and use the side guns to deal with this desperate destroyer again.
The black hole of the gun muzzle is already visible, and the warship numbered 005 is completely exposed to the opponent's gun muzzle. Naturally, this is also when one's own artillery can exert its power.
Liu Xiaoyaozi is a recent recruit, but with his outstanding talent, he became the main gunner of this warship. However, after all, this is the first time to participate in actual combat, and facing such a fierce opponent, it is impossible not to beat the drum in my heart. This is also the training process of soldiers.
This ship has a high speed, will it avoid it? According to the knowledge gained in daily training, naval gun attack is not the strength of the destroyer. During the First and Second World Wars, destroyers were used to attack torpedo boats and submarines, and had the ability to launch torpedoes; in the UK, they were mainly used for peripheral security work or as escorts for merchant ships.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When China only has these, if it is not used, how about using a smaller tonnage "Hankou" class gunboat? "Jiujiang" can hold on for a while, but "Hankou" can only fight guerrillas. Not to mention that the power of its 75mm naval gun is too small and the range is too close, but its thin armor is bound to sink if it is hit by a shot.
So Captain You Keshu calmly issued the order: "Every gun can fire freely and aim at the Yura!"
"At such a close distance, the "Jiujiang" class is also capable of fighting. Liu Xiaoyaozi calibrated it carefully and then pulled the ignition device. After a deafening roar, with a faint tail flame, the cannon ejected from the chamber and penetrated directly into the right side of the "Yura"'s ribs, blasting a hole as big as a bucket, and then a plume of thick smoke came out of its cabin. .
bingo! Seeing the busy sailors on the Japanese ship, Liu Xiaoyao was very happy.
But the "Yura" is a warship of considerable tonnage after all, and this wound is just a lick, far from breaking the bones. After suffering a loss, he went straight to the gun and ordered: "Sink this Chinese warship!"
005, who became the target of special attention, was immediately surrounded by artillery. Just the air flow brought out by the water column soaring into the sky was enough to lift a running sailor into the water.
I couldn¡¯t care less, so I just threw out a lifebuoy in a hurry, and 005 fell into a sea of ??fire. The close range shelling made its armor look even more delicate. Its bow had been penetrated, and the surface of the ship seemed to have been swept. The power of the high-velocity cannon is fatal to the target.
However, 005 is still moving forward. At such a close distance, there is no way to retreat. If you get out of the way, you are giving the Japanese ship a target; on the contrary, if you move forward head on, the power of the ship's gun can be reflected.
"Even if we hit it, we will sink it!" This was Captain You Keshu's thought. The Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War was a shame for the Chinese Navy. Almost the entire fleet was lost, but they failed to capture any Japanese warships! This time, although there is still a disparity in strength, he will personally avenge the Chinese Navy, even if they both die together.
?Zhi Shang Toshishu was surprised. If you are too stunned, you will be afraid of being violent, and if you are too stunned, you will be afraid of losing your life. They are not afraid of the tightness of your ship and your guns, and they don¡¯t care whether they are beaten into fallen leaves by you. They just want your life! While he ordered: "Advance at full speed!" he shouted loudly: "Fish|Thunder soldiers are ready!"
"Yura" carries 6 fish mine launchers, including 2 on the flanks. This is an improved 61 cm torpedo launcher tube, which can launch the astonishingly powerful Type 93 sour torpedo, which is the "Lance" torpedo that later shocked Britain and the United States. This makes this class of ship even more capable. The fleet determines the status of the main force of cruisers. It is not unreasonable for the Japanese Navy to use it as the flagship of the squadron.
Now it¡¯s time for it to show off its power. Then, the clear water rippled, and two fish mines popped up silently.
If it is hit by any of these torpedoes, a warship of such a small tonnage as the "Jiujiang" class will be scrapped on the spot or directly sunk. There have been legends in history that American ships were lifted into the sky by the air waves generated by explosions.
But it also has a fatal weakness: its accuracy is too poor, and it can be regarded as the ancestor of "fire and forget". There is another even more deceptive thing, which is the damage to friendly ships: they often make their own mistakes - of course, the ship will not admit it even if it is killed, but its opponent, the United States, once fairly attacked it when summing up battlefield experience. The halo of sinking a Japanese warship gave themselves.
That was the accuracy of World War II, let alone now. In line with the essence of "launch and forget", the two torpedoes disappeared, and the soaring water column that Zhishang expected to see did not appear.
Chinese destroyers are still charging. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?Too bad, it can be regarded as the ancestor of "fire and forget".
