The sound of cannons rumbles and the smoke of gunpowder rolls.

The entire Laolao Bay was filled with black smoke, and the light of the rising sun was suddenly lost, just like black clouds pressing on the domain.

A buzzing sound passed through the sky, and six Tang army raptors formed a diamond-shaped combat formation to approach the port side of the battleship Ise at high speed. The airborne 20mm caliber cannon fired violently, and rows of shells were fired out.

"Tada!Tada!"

When the Japanese artillery soldiers on the port side of the Ise port gun position heard the sound, their bodies had been smashed into flesh and blood by the shells shot from the sky.

During the fierce attack, it is difficult for the anti-aircraft guns on the Japanese ship to hit the high-speed moving Tang Army aircraft. On the other hand, the anti-aircraft gun positions of the Japanese ship are all open-air and are easily strafed by Tang Army cannons, and heavy casualties are inevitable.

The Ise only has four 80mm anti-aircraft guns that are cut off and stopped at the same time. The Tang army fighter jets have been staring there. Once a Japanese soldier emerges to try to control the anti-aircraft guns, they will be immediately swept away by the Tang army fighter jets.

After being massacred again and again, countless Japanese soldiers were killed and injured, and shouting Amaterasu Oppasan's blessing seemed to be no longer effective.

The four-door 80mm anti-aircraft guns are the only weapon that can pose a fatal threat to the Tang army aircraft. As for the ** machine gun, even if the 7.7mm bullet hits the Tang army aircraft, as long as it does not hit the pilot in the cabin, it will be useless.

As the Ise air defense firepower was suppressed again, three Tang army Hellfire carrier-based bombers quickly overturned a few times and then quickly dived down.

“Yi—Yi—Yi—Yi—”

The sky was roaring, and aviation bombs weighing 500 kilograms fell like a meteor.

"Bang—bang—bang—bang—bang—"

The sea water boiled. Huge columns of water soared into the sky, huge waves surging, and splashing water splashed hundreds of meters away.

Two aviation bombs fell between the Ise First Bridge and the No. 2 main gun turret. There was only a 55mm armor and 30mm armor protection there, which could not resist the kinetic energy impact of 500 kilograms of bombs, and was instantly smashed into two large holes.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two bombs exploded, like a volcano erupting. Two fiery red flames soared into the sky. The turret of the No. 2, hundreds of tons, was blown away, and the first bridge was razed to the ground. Hundreds of Japanese troops were swept into the air by air waves, screaming and doing free fall movements.

At the same time, the battleships of the Hinata and the Yamashiro were besieged by more than 30 Raptors of the Tang army and more than 20 Hellfire ships. Among them, the Hinata was hit by four 500 kilogram aviation bombs. The Yamashiro was lucky enough to only get one aviation bomb.

In addition, among the eleven destroyers that were responsible for the escort mission of the Japanese battleship detachment, two blowfly-class destroyers and four peak wind-class destroyers were sunk.

These destroyers are really vulnerable. A five hundred kilogram aviation bomb is enough to smash a destroyer of one or two thousand tons into pieces. It turns into a huge cloud of fiery red mushrooms.

At the same time, although the Tang army focused on bombing four old Japanese battleships, it did not relax on the Japanese flagship Nagamon and its sister ship Muro.

Nine Hell Fireships tentatively attacked Nagamon and Muao under the cover of the battle between twelve Raptors. After finally paying the price of two Raptors and one Hellfire being shot down, two 500 kilograms of bombs hit the front deck of Nagamon and a 500 kilograms of bomb hit the second bridge of Muao.

The Nagamon-class battleship is the most powerful and latest battleship of the Japanese army. As the pride of the Japanese Navy, the Nagamon-class battleship's armor is very powerful. It not only has 305 mm side armor behind the side armor, but also has 127 mm horizontal armor protection. The horizontal armor was originally intended by the Japanese army to resist the attack of horizontal large elevation shells from the battleship. However, it accidentally increased the ship's horizontal protection ability against bombers.

However, the 127mm horizontal armor still cannot stop the bombing of 500 kilograms of bombs, but it can remove most of the explosion impact force and reduce the huge destructive power of the explosion to the internal structure.

Two 500 kilograms of bombs made the front deck of the Nagamon battleship a sea of ​​fire, and thick smoke rolled, covering the sky and the sea.

The Japanese firefighting team above quickly launched a fire, but was fired at the volley of the Tang army's Raptors, with countless casualties, and once scared the Japanese army so much that they dared not come forward to put out the fire.

The Muao was hit by a 500-kilogram bomb, and his second bridge was instantly razed to the ground, with fire and thick smoke rolling, and hundreds of Japanese commanders were killed.

"Is this the power of the aviation force?"

Shinozuka's eyes were dull, and he had never expected this result. He regretted not accepting Kobayashi's order to continue to retreat. It seems that the fierce offensive of the Tang army's planes is enough to destroy the battleship squad of the Imperial Japanese Navy.

These are the only six battleships in active service in the Japanese Navy. If they are all lost here, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the entire Japanese Navy and will be severely damaged. For the entire Japanese Empire, the capital they proudly dominate will be completely lost.

Let’s apologize with caesarean section!

The Japanese generals around Shizuka Shinozuka no longer had the mood to agree. They saw Shinozuka Shinozuka's eyes full of anger, and they wanted to rush forward and bit him to death.

Kobayashi, who was having some drip in the lounge, was suddenly awakened by the violent explosion. He called the adjutant to ask and found out the whole story.

"Shinozuka, you bastard, you are going to ruin the Japanese Empire... Ah puff..."

"General! General..."

Kobayashi was squirting blood several times, and she immediately turned her neck and her braids.

He was actually angry to death!

Kobayashi's death suddenly cast a shadow on the Japanese army's hearts and his morale was extremely low.

"Their firepower was suppressed by us, and the smoke was scraped to the east. You can use the cover of the smoke to carry out a torpedo attack and send them to the west!"

"clear!"

Twelve Hellfire carrier-based bombers have been hovering nearby. There are no aviation bombs under their belly, but a 900-kilogram aviation torpedo.

They have been hovering in the air, waiting for the opportunity to appear.

Now, the Japanese fleet has been severely damaged, and most of the Japanese ships' air defense firepower is already very weak. Therefore, the twelve hellfires have quickly lowered their heights with the help of smoke cover.

These twelve Hellfires have only one target, that is, the flagship Nagato battleship, the flagship of the Japanese Joint Fleet.

At this moment, there was a fire in the bow of the battleship Nagamon, and thick smoke rolled, almost covering most of the ship's body. Even the huge island was almost swallowed by thick smoke. The sight of the Japanese observers on it was greatly affected, and there were continuous raptors firing them, making it impossible for them to notice the Tang army's torpedo crew.

The twelve hellfires descended easily to sea level, and when they reached the Nagato, they quickly dropped torpedoes less than 3 kilometers away.

However, to the surprise of the Tang army, none of their torpedoes floated to the surface.

"What's going on?"

Li Jianhui kept staring at the Changmen. Seeing that the twelve hellfires easily dropped all the torpedoes, he was happily waiting to see the Changmen being blown into the sky, but unexpectedly, no torpedo floated on the surface.

"I don't know, maybe the water is too shallow, and the torpedoes have penetrated into the mud!"

"Damn it! Let's go back first and make a long-term plan!"

"clear!"

Li Jianhui immediately complained and greeted Zhao Changzhi. All Tang army fighter planes flew away from Laolao Bay one after another.

Half an hour later, 105 Raptors and 69 Hellfires returned to the aircraft carrier one after another. The other three Hellfires and three Raptors were shot down by Japanese artillery, and the pilots were killed without time to parachuting. In addition, many aircraft were seriously injured by Japanese air defense aircraft groups, and several pilots were slightly injured.

This is the first time that the Tang naval aviation forces have suffered casualties and losses since the battle, but the results are considerable. They sink the Fusang battleship, severely damaged five battleships, Nagamon, Muro, Ise, Hinaga, and Yamago, and sink six Japanese destroyers.

"Ground crews immediately began to inspect all fighter jets and prepare for flights. The pilots seized time to rest and carried out a second wave of attacks in half an hour!"

In the conference room of the Tianwang Bridge of the Chiguo Tianwang, Zhang Meng listened to the battle briefing of Li Jianhui and Zhao Changzhi. Zhang Meng naturally praised and encouraged their outstanding performance. For their mistakes in the battle, Zhang Meng asked them to summarize their experience after the war to avoid the same mistakes again.

When Li Jianhui mentioned that the torpedo attack on the Japanese ship was ineffective because the water depth of Laolao Bay was too shallow, Zhang Meng suddenly showed a mysterious smile.
