The Chaoyang Ai Ai, six heavy Raptors battled each approached the six battleships of the Japanese fleet.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The thunderous cannon sounded, but the Fusang battleship took the lead in firing. Its 12 356mm main guns and 8 152mm secondary guns were spitting out, and a large-caliber shell roared into the sky, and finally exploded on the sea dozens of kilometers away, stirring up huge water columns.

Immediately afterwards, the three battleships, Yama Castle, Hinaga and Ise, and the main guns of more than a dozen destroyers near them also opened fire.

For a moment, the sound of cannons rumbled through the world. The birds on Saipan Island rose up and flew into the distance.

"Bastard, who made them fire?"

Shizuka Shinozuka was furious. The six Tang army fighter jets coming in front of them were obviously coming to test the firepower. They obviously knew that the Japanese fleet was prepared, so they did not directly launch the attack in large clusters. Instead, they sent six fighter jets to test the Japanese ship's defensive firepower first, and found the air defense blind spots to launch the attack better.

"General, Fusang and Shancheng were transferred to the war without completing the air defense modification. They did not have large-caliber air defense anti-aircraft guns, so they could only use their main guns to bombard them at long distances, hoping to shock the enemy planes."

The Fusang and Yama Castle are currently the oldest battleship in the main fleet of the Japanese Navy. They originally started to be modernized and modified in April 1930, but the Tang-Japanese War broke out, and the Ono Shisanidi fleet was annihilated. The Japanese Navy lost four King Kong-class battlecruisers and multiple light and heavy cruisers. Considering the tension, the Japanese military stopped the modification of the battleships.

In this way, there were no anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns on the two battleships, Fusang and Yamachi, except for the main guns and secondary guns. At the same time, the two battleships, Ise and Hinaga, were also stopped from being renovated. However, these two battleships were built later than the Fusang-class. They were equipped with four single-mounted anti-aircraft guns at the beginning of construction. Although they gave up the modification, they were also better than the Fusang and Yamachi.

Shizuka Shinozuka temporarily transferred machine gunners from the Saipan defenders and assigned more than 20 ** roving heavy machine guns to each of the four battleships to prepare for air defense. However, for the navy generals, it was really shameful to let the army go to the ship to assist air defense.

"Idiot. Do you think this will shock the Tang army?"

Shizuka Shinozuka cursed, but did not blame him anymore. He also knew that the generals were full of anger. The war was about to come, and he didn't want to scold the commanders of each ship first, after all, he was also an agent.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

Seeing that Shinozuka did not blame him, the battleship Mu Ao also opened fire. The eight 410mm giant cannons made a terrifying sound of cannons, which shocked the sky as if it was about to crack.

The sound of cannons roared and the smoke filled the gunpowder.

This level of terrifying artillery bombardment is a huge threat to any surface fleet. However, for the Tang army pilots, they were shocked by this terrifying artillery fire for the first time at the beginning and were startled by the terrifying artillery.

The six Tang army Raptors continued to approach the Japanese fleet. Soon the main guns of the Japanese battleships stopped firing due to insufficient elevation angle.

Not long after, the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery fired. A fierce firepower net was formed at an altitude of three or four thousand meters.

The Tang army Raptor fighter jets judged the shooting height of Japanese ship artillery based on the explosion points in the air, and at the same time kept hovering in the air. Attracted the attack of Japanese ship artillery from all angles, judged the firing range of Japanese ship artillery fire, and looked for their air defense blind spots.

As the Tang army's Raptor battle continued to approach, more anti-aircraft firepower on the Japanese ship began to attack, including small-caliber rapid-fire cannons and Japanese machine gunners transferred from Saipan. They attacked with ** rotor heavy machine guns, but they were directly ignored by the Tang army, with only 7.7 mm caliber, which was not very threatening to the Tang army fighter jets.

After testing the firepower of each ship of the Japanese fleet, the six Raptors quickly climbed to a high altitude, then returned to their respective formations, and reported the situation to the commander.

"This Kobayashi is indeed very powerful. I didn't expect that I would have arranged a powerful air defense firepower network in a short period of time, and there was almost no blind spots."

Li Jianhui didn't know that the Japanese commander had already replaced him, and he thought it was Kobayashi Jizao's commander.

"The Fusang and Shancheng do not have anti-aircraft guns, and the firepower of some temporary machine guns is difficult to pose a threat to our combat agencies. We can solve these two ships first."

"In addition, the Ise and Hinaga only have a few 80mm anti-aircraft guns, and their firepower is not strong."

"We will focus on the first and then on. Let's concentrate our efforts on four battleships, Fusang, Yamaki, Ise and Hinaga, and the two ships Nagamon and Muroo, and they are targeted by us now and we can't escape. We can take our time."

"That's right! Do it according to Brother Zhao's wishes!"

After Li Jianhui and Zhao Changzhi discussed, they immediately took action.

The 108 Raptors were first dived from the clouds. They were divided into 18 teams to attack the gunners and commanders on the anti-aircraft gun positions of the Japanese ships, attract and suppress the anti-aircraft firepower of the Japanese ships, and provide cover for the subsequent Hellfire bombardment.

The Japanese ships also hid a large amount of air defense firepower, especially the Nagato battleship where Shinozuka Shizuka was located, and its sister ship, the Muroo battleship. These two ships have powerful air defense firepower and did not open all before, because they knew it was a fire test by the Tang army.

Shizuka Shizuka is worthy of being an excellent commander, but it was his first time to participate in a practical naval and air combat confrontation. The Japanese Navy's warships lacked anti-aircraft artillery, which was a flaw. However, the Tang army's fighter jets were powerful. Shizuka Shizuka did not stop the ships from firing just now, and wanted to see how powerful the Tang army's fighter jets were.

When he saw it, Shizuka Shinozuka suddenly felt a lot of cold. The Tang army's fighter jets were too fast and the firepower was fierce. It was difficult for the Japanese air defense artillery to lock in the opponent and open fire, because the Tang army's fighter jets were more than twice as fast as the target aircraft they usually trained, and the Japanese air defense artillery was a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Obviously, the Tang army could not give the Japanese air defense artillery a chance to adapt. Raptor ships swooped at high speed, and four 20mm machine cannons opened fire violently, causing heavy casualties to the Japanese air defense artillery.

The Tang army fighter jets focused on attacking the four old battleships, Fusang, Yamachi, Ise and Hinaga. Shinozuka suddenly realized something was wrong and immediately ordered the artillery of the two ships Nagamon and Muroo to support them. At the same time, they ordered the escort destroyers to support the four battleships as much as possible.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The sound of cannons roared, the flowing light intertwined, and the dense rain of fire exploded into the sky, and the entire sky over Laolao Bay became boiling in an instant.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a Tang army Raptor ship was hit by an 80mm air defense artillery battle, and instantly exploded in the air, turning into a rain of fire.

"Xiao Liu!"

"Dog god, I'll kill you!"

The destroyed bird of prey belonged to Xiao Liu. His companions' eyes were blood red. The anger of losing companions made them attack the Japanese ship frantically.

The two Raptors battled alternately in the air. It was like two pendulum clocks swaying left and right and diving, heading straight for the 80mm anti-aircraft gun.

"Tada!Tada!"

Eight 20mm machine cannons fired alternately, and a rain of bullets poured down. Five or six Japanese officers and soldiers on the cannon were instantly beaten into hornet's nests, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

At this time, a Hellfire heavy ship hit the cover of his companions and dived down at high speed.

“Yi—Yi—”

The sharp whistle pierced the sky, which immediately made the Japanese army frightened.

"Bomb, dodge it!"

A Japanese commander shouted loudly.

At the same time, two 500 kilograms of aviation bombs landed between the fifth and sixth turrets of the rear bridge of the Fusang battleship. The Japanese officer and more than a dozen Japanese sailors were immediately shocked to the deck.

The two bombs had huge kinetic energy through the penetration force and instantly drilled through a 75mm-thick horizontal armor belt, and scattered through three layers of armor in succession, and landed in the restaurant in the rear deck area.

In the restaurant, several Japanese chefs fell to the ground and got up. When they got close, they were shocked.

They were two huge bombs, painted black and extremely murderous intent.

One of the Japanese chefs had sharp eyes and found that the fuse of the bomb was rotating rapidly.

"Run quickly-"

Before he could shout out, two aviation bombs exploded and the fire instantly swallowed them.

Outside, a group of Japanese sailors lay on the deck and did not dare to get up. They looked at the two black holes that were smashed by bombs and trembled all over.

It's so terrifying. It's smashed from the sky and before it exploded, it had already smashed the horizontal armor of the battleship out. If it exploded, it would have exploded.

A group of Japanese soldiers dared not imagine it, and the more they thought about it, the more they became more and more scared.

At this moment, they suddenly felt the deck under them vibrate violently. At the same time, the area where the No. 5 and No. 6 main guns in the rear deck area were located was rapidly raising, and the originally flat deck turned into a raised hill in the blink of an eye.

What kind of force is this able to lift the thick steel plate?

A group of Japanese sailors suddenly howled in fear.

"Bang! Bang!"

With two loud bangs, the rear deck area was like a crater erupting, and a flame with a diameter of more than ten meters erupted out. The group of Japanese soldiers were immediately knocked to a height of hundreds of meters, and their bodies were instantly to pieces. The main gun turret of the battleship weighing hundreds of tons was also blown into mid-air, and the gun barrel of more than ten meters was twisted into a twist.

Just two 500 kilogram aviation bombs actually blew up the rear deck area of ​​the Fusang, and the entire stern broke. Two hundreds of tons of oars were lifted into the sky, and violently rubbed against the twisted hull, and pieces of Mars were rippling.

The Fusang battleship, which was constantly maneuvering and avoiding, stopped because it lost its oar. A cloud of fiery red mushrooms rose into the air, and thick smoke rolled, covering the sky and the sun.

After all, the Fusang is an old battleship. Its displacement of less than 30,000 tons is actually equipped with six dual-mounted 356mm main guns, which will inevitably lead to structural defects in armor protection. It is inevitable that it will be torn apart by two 500 kilogram bombs.

The sea water poured back fiercely, and with just two bombs hit, the Fusang inevitably began to sink.

All the Japanese officers and soldiers on the Japanese ships were stunned. They died as soon as they fought. Although they were the oldest battleship, they began to sink after only two bombs. This was a bit amazing.

"asshole!"
