The battle in the air continued, but the battlefield was getting bigger and bigger, and it had gradually spread out and turned into a fight. Some injured fighters began to land on their motherships.☆→☆→,

The two fleets on the sea were sailing at full speed and soon discovered each other on their respective radars, and then entered the telescope's observation distance.

"All ships are ready to fire!"

Gorshkov immediately issued an order.

Four Xia Boyang-class cruisers quickly advanced, and then forty-eight 57-axis 152 mm main guns raised their muzzles at the same time. Data from various places, including radar, began to be summarized into the fire control room, waiting for their prey to enter the maximum range of 23 kilometers.

But unfortunately, the era of naval guns has passed.

Twenty-five kilometers away, the three ships of Hongwu, which were originally rushing at high speed, suddenly drew an elegant arc of tracks on the sea surface, and showed their starboard side towards the Soviet fleet that could already be seen with a telescope in the distance. Sixteen Styx anti-ship missile launch boxes were facing the target. In the control compartment next to them, under the command of a beautiful robot, the sailors responsible for launching each locked the target on the radar screen.

The four ships of Xia Boyang that were leaving the front were still advancing at full speed. Behind them, on the Moscow aircraft carrier, Gorshkov held a telescope and stared at the Ming fleet. He suddenly had an ominous premonition that the other party's actions were too abnormal and they should not fight. Everyone knows that one cruiser, two destroyers, will definitely not be able to fight against the four cruisers. They should leave at high speed, and then wait for the fighter to land and hang on bombs.

So why do they come to die?

"What is that?"

He suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some white things on the three warships in the distance, reflecting under the sun.

The chief of staff next to him hurriedly raised his telescope.

But at this moment, a flame suddenly shone in the middle of the Hongwu cruiser, and a striking flame trail shot out instantly, tilting towards the sky, which was particularly eye-catching on the blue background.

"Not good, it's an anti-ship missile!"

Gorshkov roared at the top of his lungs, and in an instant he felt cold sweat. He finally knew why the enemy dared to fight, but it was too late at this time. Almost in the blink of an eye, three similar trails shot out from the middle of the Hongwu. He hit him head-on at an extremely fast speed at a height of more than 100 meters on the sea.

Fortunately, the Soviets had conducted in-depth research on this kind of thing and guessed its greatest possible radar guidance, so there was a primary radar jamming device on the Xiaboyang-class cruiser. Although it was impossible to know the other party's radar frequency, Soviet scientists still tried their best to develop a jamming device for their warships.

Just as the interference was activated, almost all the anti-aircraft guns on the four cruisers were aimed at the four Styx, which was also a method developed by the Soviets. Today is the time to test the results. Starting from the long-distance interception of the 152 mm naval gun, as the distance between the Styx was rapidly approaching, the 37 mm anti-aircraft gun was added instantly.

It works indeed.

They actually stopped one.

Looking at the anti-ship missiles that exploded in dense artillery fire, the Soviet warships were almost filled with joy.

But unfortunately, they only stopped one, and there were three more.

After rushing through the anti-aircraft artillery barrage, the three Styx suddenly raised their heads and instantly reached nearly 300 meters above the altitude, then they hit the Fulongzhi.

On the Fulongzhi, everyone looked at the sky in despair, looking at the missiles falling like a meteor, and suddenly two of them seemed to have slight deviation. Before they could understand what was going on, these two anti-ship missiles hit the sea close to the starboard side. Just as the explosion water column rose, the last one hit the middle of the Fulongzhi.

A earth-shaking loud banged open on the sea. The giant ship, which was more than 10,000 tons, even jumped hard, and the flames erupted from the middle like volcanoes.

Gorshkov looked at the scene speechlessly.

And in the Ming army fleet in the distance, there was already a lot of cheers, and amid the cheers, the other four Styx continued to shoot out.

Target, Xia Boyang.

"Open fire!"

The three ships of Uncle Xia were roaring in horror at the same time. All the artillery that could be used instantly joined the ranks of shooting. The densely packed artillery shells of various caliber were shot to the sea. Above the water columns stimulated by the shells, four anti-ship missiles were spraying flames, and they kept approaching. At this time, the Soviet sailors no longer thought about anything else. They only had shooting in their minds, and shot down the four missiles with the fastest speed they could achieve, just like the first time.

At this time, the Fulongzhi had already emitted thick smoke. Although a missile would not destroy this giant ship with a full load displacement of nearly 14,000 tons, it had lost its combat effectiveness here. If the Xia Boyang was repeating this result, then their fleet would be very dangerous next.

The Soviets' desperate attack did not receive corresponding rewards. This time, their naval guns were not shot down. Seeing four anti-ship missiles suddenly raised their heads less than two kilometers away, climbed to a height of 300 meters at a high speed, and then plunged towards the Xia Boyang.

This time, the Soviets' most basic radar jamming device almost saved them again.

Of course, it's just a little bit short.

The dive trajectory of the two missiles obviously deviated and then directly hit the sea, but the remaining two missiles crashed into the cruiser one by one and one behind. The moment the huge dive force of the missile on the head of the ship crashed into the deck, nearly half a ton of warhead was detonated, and the terrifying explosion suddenly tore the head of the Xia Boyang. The stern of the ship was hit by a 152-mm turret. In the flames of the explosion, the turret was torn into pieces. Before the Soviet sailors around woke up, an explosion like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked suddenly rang out on the sea.

Ammunition exploded.

The Xia Boyang was like a toy, and was directly torn apart by a fire ball arched from under the deck, and his body jumped upwards at a strange angle.

Its keel is broken.

Gorshkov stared at the brand new cruiser that had just been in service for more than a month, and around him, there was already a scream of pain.

This cruiser is finished.

When the deadly explosion ended, it began to sink without hesitation. Just as it slowly sank into the sea, all the Soviets turned their heads and looked at the distance with fear, where there were eight anti-ship missiles not launched.

But they did not continue to launch.

The sea was in a strange calm, and the main guns on the remaining two cruisers of the Soviets did not dare to fire. In the Ming fleet, eight anti-ship missiles on the two destroyers were not launched. The two sides just watched each other across more than 20 kilometers, and no one moved.

"Want? Why do we fight? We are civilized people, so don't always fight and kill."

In the dedicated communicator, Yang's voice clearly reached Wu Zurong's ears.

"Yes, but the Soviets are our enemies?"

Wu Zurong said in a daze.

"Well, sometimes the enemy is also something that needs careful care. Forget it, such a profound truth is difficult for you to understand for a while. In short, contact the Soviets, what are our fights in this game? They will get out of here, and we will not continue to attack, but they must leave the injured cruiser as their compensation, otherwise we will even sink the remaining two of them."

Yang Feng said.

In fact, he was not sure of winning. He didn't expect Stalin to grow so quickly that he could even interfere with radar. However, the most basic active radar seeker in the Styx is indeed known for easy interference, which is not a big deal. Just add an infrared seeker or other head to go back. As for easy interception, it is better to solve it. Just add a good altimeter to ensure seafaring flight, and you don't even need a serpentine maneuver so high.

But now it put him in a dilemma. Launching another eight anti-ship missiles does not guarantee that the remaining two cruisers will be completely sunk. And even if they are injured or even severely damaged, they still have Moscow. Don’t underestimate the latter’s single-ship combat capability, sixteen 150 mm naval guns, one-on-one light cruiser, and there is no pressure to fight a 10,000-ton light cruiser, not to mention that there is heavy armor protection, and the amazing speed driven by 200,000 horsepower. It is hard to say whether Hongwu can beat it.

The battle in the sky has not yet been decided, and even if it wins, it will be a terrible victory. If you can defeat thirty-six fights, you may have lost most of the loss of Haiqi.

In other words, if the battle continues, it is likely that both sides will suffer losses, wipe out the Soviet fleet, and then you will suffer huge losses, and it may even be damaged by the Kunlun.

Since this is the case, there is no need to fight. Keep the Moscow and continue to give the Americans and British people a headache. There is no need to fight Stalin like this. He fought hard in front of him, and others were secretly happy behind him. Just as he told Wu Zurong, sometimes the enemy is also a kind of thing that needs careful care. Later American arms giants often accidentally stolen top-secret technologies and other things.

But Gorshkov flatly rejected Wu Zurong's kindness conveyed.

"No, we will never abandon the Fulongzhi. The great Soviet Navy did not abandon its comrades."

He said proudly on the radio.

Well, he is a smart man, not a stubborn person like Kuznetsov. If he does this, he will never make a comeback in the Soviet Navy. This failure is no big deal and will not affect his career. But if he abandons the Fulongzhi name, his career will be over.

"If you refuse, then we will sink all your warships on the sea."

Wu Zurong threatened very directly.
