The "Kaohsiung" has powerful large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery for this era, but it is only a battleship. Even with the surrounding destroyers covering it, it is not enough to stop the bombers incoming at high speed. What's more, this is a plane that should not be

The super-fast fighter that appears in this era!

Kyouro took advantage of the gap when he went back to load ammunition, and drove out the "Dark Arrow 2" that only he could touch except Zhu Bin and Serena, and mounted a 500-pound large aerial bomb to the Japanese flagship who was trying to escape the killing.

A heavy blow!

This monster with a speed of up to 900 kilometers per hour was almost unimaginable by anyone in this era. Even the Japanese with the best eyes could not catch the speed of bullets whizzing back and forth, let alone the panic of rescuers on the warships that were smoking everywhere.

How could he have expected to save people alive despite the desperate interception of dozens of fighter planes ahead, and to kill such a vicious man!

"Dark Arrow 2"'s unique large delta wing and forward fixed canard layout gave its slender figure extremely high flexibility and straight-line speed. It suddenly emerged from the hole until the bomb fell, and even rubbed against the "Kaohsiung"

"When the top of the mast swayed past, the Japanese troops on the ship were awakened by the weird roar. Then they saw in horror that four black dots were bombarding the battleship at nearly the speed of sound, making a strange sound like a hellish scream!

"Boom! Boom!"

The four aerial bombs fell into the sea water on both sides of the battleship, less than 30 meters away from the ship's hull, and penetrated about ten meters underwater with a fierce explosion! The huge water columns that rose up from the air hit the "Kaohsiung" from both sides.

The whole package is wrapped up, and the majestic force generated by nearly two hundred kilograms of high-explosive gun propels a huge amount of seawater like a ton of water.

An unstoppable backlog like a giant hammer was piled on both sides of the ship. The steel-riveted "Kaohsiung" shuddered, and the entire battleship was squeezed upwards. (com) The solid keel and steel plates "squeaked"

"Quack" groaned and deflated in, suddenly tearing out huge cracks more than one meter wide!

The power of a near-miss is no worse than a direct hit! The sea water bombarded by a huge amount of missiles faithfully transfers the force to the hull. Not even a battlecruiser can handle this distance, let alone the armor.

The Kaohsiung was much thinner. The entire keel of the ship was crushed and fell off in a few seconds. The steel plate rivets exploded and flew in random directions. Hundreds of tons of seawater gurgled and poured in in a blink of an eye.

Most of the slender hull sank!

At this time, the inherent flaws in the design became harmful. The bridge, which was originally too large and heavy, was not easy to maintain balance. At this moment, the degree of water filling on both sides was different. What was terrible was that it was on the waterline facing the original bridge.

I went to the middle part of my body which is overweight, only one tael

In a matter of minutes, I watched the battleship getting slower and crooked, no matter how much the helmsman tried to balance it.

The right side is crooked more than 60 degrees!

At the moment of the explosion, dozens of people were swept away by the lifeboats on both sides and the soldiers who were repairing and fighting the fire. Now they even started to stage a collective escape drama. All kinds of panic calls came one after another, and clusters of "pop, pop" went on.

He jumped into the water and scrambled to dig out with all his strength, so that he would not be sucked into the whirlpool caused by the sinking of the battleship.

In fact, most of the water in the Yellow Sea is very shallow. The battleships that sank here can be easily salvaged. If they are not particularly unlucky, they can also float up after they sink. But the question is, who has such a clear mind at this time!

In the high sky, nearly thirty two-seat bombers that broke through the blocking aircraft group increased their speed, circled and passed over the heads of the watching warships from various countries, and pounced towards the panicked Third Fleet outside Lingshan Bay in the north!

The Third Fleet, which is composed entirely of veterans with at least twenty years of service, is only used to bully a power like China that does not have a strong navy. Most warships do not even dare to sail across the Pacific Ocean, nor can they do so.

The design does not have that function and cannot withstand strong winds, waves and dangerous sea conditions.

Now, the two armored cruisers with the most firepower were sunk. Seeing the bombers overhead taking advantage of their weak anti-aircraft firepower to beat the drowned dogs, Lieutenant General Shinjiro Imamura, no matter how stupid he was, knew that he was going to be in bad luck, so he quickly ordered

The fighters that had worked so hard to break through in the front were pulled back and tried their best to prevent the opponent's dive bombing. The Third Fleet, these old things that were too hard to dismantle and sell for scrap, didn't have much anti-air firepower!

The assault fleet, which had been in disarray, hurriedly retreated, flanking the southern fleet, risking their lives to block the bombing, while the dozens of fast destroyers below that were busy rescuing people had to temporarily put aside the lives of their comrades.

They concentrated their anti-aircraft fire to the maximum extent and defended to the death!

The bombers, with an average speed of 420 kilometers, did not have too much entanglement. They flew past at an altitude of 500 meters with high speed. The number of less than thirty bombers was too few for the warships below that exceeded this number.

The aerial bombs dropped like flowers in the sky had almost no accuracy. After a round, except for two unlucky gunboats and an old second-class destroyer that could be displayed in a museum, they were sunk by a mere 50-pound bomb.

It's a minor injury!

The fleets of the great powers watching the excitement were already dumbfounded! The ferocity of Zhu Bin's method of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger was simply impressive! The effect of the accurate, fast, and sophisticated coastal defense artillery was even more impressive.

The old guys who have been in the navy for half their lives are rare in their lives. It is completely inconsistent with the image of the backward and ignorant Chinese navy in their minds!

Admiral Kelly sighed deeply and said to the others next to him: "We can't let them fight anymore. It's getting to this point and it's out of control. We have to intervene!"

"I agree! The balance of power in the Far East must be maintained. Japan cannot be allowed to launch crazy retaliations. A full-scale war is not in our interests, although... damn, we still underestimated our opponents." As a representative, George planned all this.

The husband was very upset and kept shouting "shit".

The Japanese carried out the attack with their consent and even instigation, but they never expected that the result would be like this! The Japanese's greed, recklessness, and stubbornness are already very troublesome, and the cunning, ruthless and ruthless nature of Zhu Bin, the person who was calculated,

The depth of the information is far beyond expectations, and things are about to get out of control! If the Third Fleet is eliminated, there will be no other possibility between China and Japan except a full-scale war!

Of course, they would not feel bad if these two countries were defeated. A war between the two countries would bring countless business opportunities, greatly ease the economic crisis in the Western world, increase employment rates, and export arms and equipment.

But the problem is that the British cannot get this benefit! In today's world, in terms of export capabilities, the Americans and the Germans have the highest export capabilities. The Americans have oil, grain, steel and other war resources, and the Germans have machine tools, heavy machinery, and arms production lines.

and weapons, which can support the needs of both countries. Britain and France can only watch the fun, and there is also the danger of their colonies being destroyed. Such a thankless thing must not be done!

Admiral Kelly immediately sent a clear telegram to French, Italian and American warships. The French and Italians were eager to show their presence and agreed without hesitation. On the American side, Colonel Grant sighed faintly, shook his head and said

: "What a pity! If the war can continue and expand, maybe we will see more wonderful things happen."

Commander Yan Luer was not a militant. He glanced at him sideways and said thoughtfully: "Colonel, do you want to see Zhu Bin's old background? This may be difficult! Moreover, I don't recommend doing that.

You know, in a Patriotic War, it is most likely to cultivate an immortal leader who will be famous in history. If such a person climbs to the top of Chinese politics, he will be in big trouble in the future!"

Colonel Grant frowned and had to admit that the commander had a sharp vision: "Well, actually, I don't want to see the Chinese asking for our help so quickly. Well, it's better to agree to the British."

It took the fleets of the four countries less than five minutes to reach an agreement. Then several clear telegrams and broadcasts were sent to Zhu Bin and the Japanese army, and were directly transmitted to the main embassies and consulates along the coast.

The government issued warnings and dissuades.

Although Japan has withdrawn from the League of Nations and is nominally uncontrolled, it does not mean that they can do whatever they want. As for China, Chiang Kai-shek almost fainted after hearing the British battle report! What the hell!? Six heavy cruisers were sunk.

Ship! Regardless of how it was sunk, the question is, can the Japanese still listen to the advice?!

He even gritted his teeth at Zhu Bin. He finally took advantage of the plan to suppress bandits and suppressed the chaos in Fujian. He was about to take advantage of the situation to regain the lost ground and clear the obstacles step by step. But at this time, he

If the Japanese really want to start a national war after causing such a big trouble, it is impossible for him to ignore it. This will be a failure!

After Zhu Bin received the telegram, he smacked his lips and threw it to everyone, asking: "Let's discuss it, do you want to continue it? Let me explain first, we do not have the ability to completely annihilate the Japanese fleet, and at the moment, these are not enough to defeat the Japanese army.

Despite all the damage, their naval base is still solid."

Cao Han grinned, thinking that you are still not satisfied. I am afraid that Japan has not suffered such heavy losses since the Meiji era. In just two days from the beginning of the war to now, hundreds of fighter planes have been destroyed. Four

A new heavy cruiser, two old-fashioned armored cruisers, two high-speed destroyers, two second-class destroyers, two gunboats... These numbers are quite auspicious. Isn't it possible that it won't make people cry?

But to be honest, the total amount of sinking of all these is less than 90,000 tons. Compared with the number of Japanese warships of more than one million tons, it is not a big deal, but the losses are unprecedented.

It’s not easy! A country that is poor and instigated, and the fleet that it has saved for decades to build is so crippled, no one else would be so angry!

"Just let it go." Yu Baoguo said with a sinister smile, "We have to give face to the great powers. It would be better for them to take the initiative to mediate. Otherwise, this matter will not end well. With the Japanese people's indifferent temperament, pointing out that

It might cause a lot of trouble!"

Hu Yibo nodded and said: "I agree. Our top priority is to develop our strength, and a full-scale confrontation with the Japanese army is not the best policy."

Seeing that they all had similar attitudes, Zhu Bin clapped his hands: "That's it, give the British face!" (To be continued...)
