Chapter 2754： remedy (1/2)
In less than 5 minutes, 20 torpedoes were released one after another. The tracks of these torpedoes crisscrossed over the sea. When the first torpedo was released for 2 minutes, a violent explosion sounded from the back of the hull of the Constellation. ! A torpedo weighing more than 500 kilograms slammed into the middle and rear of the hull of the Constellation. The explosive power of more than 120 kilograms was still very objective. Although it did not completely destroy the American underwater defense system, it was violent. The vibration caused the drive shaft on the left side of the Constellation to malfunction. After a burst of sour metal rubbing and crashing sounds, the left propeller of the Constellation finally stopped, and then, disasters came one after another! In the next 7 minutes, the poor Constellation was hit by 8 torpedoes in a row. Although the total charge of these 8 torpedoes was not as good as 4 torpedoes used by submarines or destroyers, there is no doubt that such frequent strikes eventually Still nailed the last coffin nail to Constellation!
”There were 5 thunders on the left and 3 on the right. The generator compartment was flooded and the boiler compartment suffered heavy losses. We lost at least 80% of the electricity and 60% of the power.”
”The warship has flooded more than 3,000 tons, and the warship is tilted 22 degrees to the left. The largest gap is 15 meters long. The damage management team said it has nothing to do.”
”Prepare to abandon the ship.” The captain of the Constellation issued an abandonment order, and a large number of small boats were dropped into the sea, while the US Navy personnel climbed down the high deck along the net ladder.
However, the Japanese who had killed the red eye did not seem to want to let go of the US Navy personnel on the Constellation. Several fighters and bombers rushed to the dense crowd on the deck like bloodthirsty demons, then pulled the trigger and dropped them. The bomb!
This is definitely the bloodiest scene in this naval battle. More than three digits of people were killed on the spot, and their mutilated limbs were even thrown into the sky by the shock wave generated by the bomb. A large amount of blood directly stained the deck red, coupled with the wailing and curses of the survivors, turned the flight deck of this battleship into a hell!
Twenty minutes later, the most advanced aircraft carrier of the U.S. Navy sank into the sea with unwillingness and anger. The ship had more than 1,500 officers and soldiers, and no more than three digits survived. The tragic situation of the battle filled the hearts of Americans with anger and sadness. Of course, this is something to be said, leaving aside, what is the situation on the entire battlefield now?
”We got caught. The Americans used an aircraft carrier that almost emptied the hangar as a decoy to attract our first wave of attacks. Now, we are like a samurai throwing a javelin in our hands, with bare hands. Any combat power.” Steidi reported to Betty, and the Japanese navy officer on the aircraft carrier next to him was also caught in a panic. After all, the consequences of this incident were a bit terrifying. Betty’s concerns have been verified. The Japanese Navy still has not found the exact location of the US aircraft carrier, but now it is facing possible attacks from the other side at any time!
”General Betty, Commander Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu has now handed over the command of the aircraft carrier squadron to your Excellency. I hope that your Excellency will do nothing for the common interests of Britain and Japan.” It is also the captain of the Flying Dragon just now. The attitude is different from a few minutes ago! There was a strong pleading and humility in the language.
”Well, first, send as many reconnaissance aircraft as possible to search the surrounding waters. Now the aircraft carrier has a very small attack range. As long as we send enough aircraft, we can always find the target quickly.” Betty ordered. The first order after regaining command, if he followed his previous temper, he would never let off anyone who offended him. But now, even he is in crisis, so it is better to deal with business as soon as possible.
”Second, issue an order to the land-based aviation team, telling them to also carry out reconnaissance at the same time, and after finding the target, they can launch an offensive immediately without waiting for the carrier-based aircraft force.”
