Chapter 912 Crazy Break! One Million Tons!
The Pacific region, which has been calm for many years, has been completely boiling!
The number of planes flying from the West Coast of the United States to Hawaii has increased by tenfold, so that all civil aviation routes in several major cities in Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles were interrupted, and the military took over air control in full swing. Several incidents of installation occurred in a day!
In the major coastal ports, all the ships that can be mobilized are concentrated. No matter which company you belong to or private, facing the danger of being attacked at any time, national security is the priority. With the active response and support of major consortiums, the military's expropriation process went smoothly.
Several well-equipped army divisions and a large number of Marines were transported out first, and hundreds of transport planes were filled with soldiers and kept taking off to Hawaii. It was too late to land and unload, so it was just a parachute jumper!
The entire United States has mobilized at least 200,000 troops and has to be deployed to Hawaii and Midway in the shortest time! If you are not optimistic about naval defense at all, you will have to fight a land-stay defense battle!
On the sea, there were thousands of ships shuttled back and forth, almost continuous, with unprecedented density! Among the ten ships, one was an armed cargo ship, with hundreds of destroyers of different new and old scattered among them, forming a continuous guard and protective force to fight against the broken ships sent by Zhu Bin to a desperate battle!
Yes, break up!
Zhu Bin would not let the Americans take care of logistics supplies safely. Since it has decided to leverage the entire Pacific situation, it has to make the whole process more intense and lively, which is in line with his mental needs, otherwise, it would seem too boring, right?
Of course, his breakup is not the same as a conventional powerful ship or a German submarine. In his opinion, it is too low for efficiency! The sacrifice is too great and not cost-effective! Since you want to play high-tech, you have to play more pleasing to the eye and beyond expectations!
So, from the eastern part of Hawaii, a large number of strange forces that had been hidden for a long time began to appear!
In the northern ocean, in the sea with relatively low water temperatures, dozens of super king squids with a length of more than 30 meters rushed out of deep water under the stimulation of the remote control chip. In broad daylight, they hunted relatively smaller destroyers!
These guys swim in different postures in the water, especially when they float up quickly from the deep sea. The huge body, under the sonar detection of the destroyer, was as fast as a torpedo, more afraid of people than floating on a submarine, and was also very hidden!
Their movements are flexible and maneuverable, and the echoes formed by the long wrists and feet are even more strange. They suddenly attack vertically from below, pounce on the edge of the ship, and take them without hesitation. They roll up everything and stuff them into their mouths, or hold the narrow hull and sway left and right. Dragging and swaying, destroyers with a displacement of less than 2,000 tons will be tortured and uncontrollable!
Of course, if you want to kill the destroyer, the power of this thing is a little lacking, but don’t forget that ordinary people have seen such a terrifying monster! Especially the terrifying act of slapping suction cups that are bigger than a washbasin and turning people into pieces in a few seconds. Even the courageous naval soldiers are still devastated by the torture!
The older models of destroyers are only more than 1,000 tons, and the detection methods are behind. If you are not careful, you will be hit and overturned. There are many people who are overturned.
Advanced destroyers have large sonar power and anti-submarine hedgehog bombs. They don’t think it’s easy to take the lead, throw and detonate, and try to kill these terrible guys, which can also produce a certain effect. But in general, it’s not very meaningful. Most of the king squids are following them up from directly under them. That angle is too weird!
There are also countless small cargo ships, which are also affected! In addition to the large ships with more than 10,000 tons, there are quite a few thousand-ton cargo ships that can run to Hawaii. They have become the main targets of squids to attack, and they can be killed almost every time. Dozens of them can be taken together, and you can imagine how messy the entire sea area should be!
This is just the beginning!
At the same time as the war broke out, super seaweed that had only appeared in the Eastern Pacific region spread to the coastline at some point. With the rich nutrition and nourishment of the deep soil of the shallow sea, these guys who were over 100 meters quickly took root and began to grow wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In just one or two days, the entire remote area of the west coast of the United States has been covered with millions of super seaweeds, and even some smaller towns, their small ports are gradually blocked by this thing. Once the boat goes out, the propeller will be entangled.
At first, the fishermen didn't care much and thought it was normal, but they found that the trawl was stuffed with seaweed and could not even be pulled up. The originally bare beach began to have huge seaweed climbing up, and strange green began to appear on the reef. This matter seemed to be a little right!
When the California government came back to the military reminder and sent experts to check it out, it suddenly realized that things were in a big way!
Thousands of kilometers of long beaches are filled with giant seaweed of different sizes. Originally, this thing is a local specialty, and the locals don’t think it’s strange. In addition, California is vast and sparsely populated, hundreds of thousands of Chinese are driven away or arrested and detained by them. No one will do the hard work, so the information feedback becomes even more dull.
Now, all the seaweed, as if it was stimulated, began to grow and spread wildly, covering from deep water to shallow water, climbing up the beachhead reefs, invading the port, and the most excessive, simply covering the entire water surface with the wind and rain!
This leads to a further ecological disaster!
The leaves of super seaweed are as long as dozens of meters and hundreds of meters long. They spread out and are on the top of the destroyer! At sea level, it can receive sufficient sunlight and photosynthesis. The root system can penetrate into the soil with rich nutrients, and can obtain sufficient growth force and take two-pronged approaches. So, under the support of some thick leaf veins, huge leaves can extend to the sea surface for more than ten meters, which is so exaggerated!
The thick blades are tough and tough like rubber. Ordinary sickles cannot cut at all. They have to use a gasoline saw or forklift. Manual cleaning is destined to be a drop in the bucket.
Below the seaweed is covered with seaweed, there is no sunlight or oxygen, fish, shrimp and other plants cannot even survive, and other plants gradually wither and die!
This kind of seaweed is rich in bioenergy. If it dies from sunlight or suddenly lacks nutrients, it will start to absorb in the seawater and emit alkyl gases that can be used to make fuel. If there is an open flame in some closed areas, it can even cause an explosion!
When the Americans came to the scene, seaweed had already filled most of the remote areas and began to spread rapidly towards the major cities. It looked like that, it would take only ten days and half a month to fill the beach!
In addition, there are large and large areas of super giant jellyfish that are quietly moving towards the main channel area, an exaggerated range that spans dozens of square kilometers. Although the distance is not far away every day, with the speed of forwarding, one day, it will enter the channel, and then you will have fun!
In the deep sea, there are a large number of highly poisonous sea snakes, thousands of rolled together, connecting them into a thick cable-like thing worth more than ten kilometers long, swimming quickly with the sea tide and rushing towards the route!
In the deep sea, there were mixed monsters like hills. The terrifying overlord who stretched his wrists and feet for a whopping 100 or 200 meters, and they also floated up from a depth of thousands of meters in groups. The super giant tentacles, the thickness of containers, looked like the incarnation of Poseidon in the mythology. Even if a 10,000-ton giant ship was targeted by this thing, it would hit hard. The hull would crack. The tentacles would stretch out and eat the seamen on it in a few seconds!
Continuous terrorist attacks began to take place in the vast ocean, and countless emergency radio waves filled the public frequency band. The naval escort ships on the west coast were tossed and exhausted.
Fortunately, after hiring Fu, who had quietly detected a few years ago, the Americans were not prepared for this. In addition to the escort destroyers, hundreds of "Catrina" patrol aircraft have been devoted to the zoning and sectioning of the warning and cleaning work.
This kind of seaplane, which has a terrible cruise range of more than 6,000 kilometers, can not only hover stably at low speeds in the air for a long time, but also has a 12.7mm heavy machine gun equipped with a firepower of quite a lot. It can also carry at least 4 bombs up to 500 kilograms, or mk xiii torpedoes, and its ability to attack seas is quite powerful! It is very good at to tossing ships without defense capabilities, and even submarines.
The US military produced this advanced seaplane jointly developed by Zhu Bin and Douglas at that time to deal with Zhu Bin's breach of fighting.
Hundreds of seaplanes slowly cruised from low altitude and discovered sea monsters attacking ships. They immediately fired with machine guns and bombed with navigation bombs or torpedoes. They were accurate, fast, convenient and powerful!
However, since Zhu Bin intends to make things bigger, how could he just prepare such a means?
Just as the ocean fleet set off from Ryukyu Island, in the Eastern Pacific, a floating platform was connected into a piece of floating platforms in the secret super sea base, and slowly marched towards the north under the propelling of the underwater power system.
This is a huge floating structure with a length of over 1,000 meters and a width of more than 300 meters. It uses a super-large offshore platform as the skeleton and uses a hollow light-oriented composite plate structure that connects to the bottom layer. As the waves rise and fall, it makes a flexible turn and relax, so as to maximize the impact of the waves.
The upper floor is a super-large platform built on the retaining structural pillars, which is a huge airport and runway that allows multiple four-engine heavy transport aircraft or bombers to take off and land at the same time!
The large offshore platform itself meets the daily living areas of permanent personnel, resource reserves and supplies, and other functions. The huge Tesla electric tower ensures the supply of energy. Even if the huge oil depot is exhausted, it will not affect the power supply. It supports the "mirage system" used to hide its traces!
In other words, if it weren't installed directly, even if it was flying nearby, the American patrol plane would not easily discover the existence of this super water platform!
This thing is only 10 nautical miles in an hour. After walking for many days, it has just crossed the main channel of Hawaii-Panama, but it is only less than 500 nautical miles away from the West Coast of the United States to Hawaii!
Just here, several aerial gunboats quietly took off from the platform! With the help of rocket takeoff boosters installed on the abdomen, the heavy fuselage jumped up, and the four powerful engines quickly climbed to more than 3,000 meters of airspace. After an hour of sailing, they successfully arrived near the main route!
Condescending, far away, the aircraft radar scanned the dense target points that were almost countless. The fire control officer on the plane almost drooled and screamed excitedly!
Happiness! It is simply supreme happiness! What is placed in front of them is an almost infinite target of attack. You can do whatever you want and you don’t have to worry about nothing to do. You just need to worry about insufficient oil and too little ammunition, and just let go of the rest!
Each "air gunboat" carries a 75mm howitzer, a 40mm Bofos gun, and two 25mm six-barrel cannons, which removes the 7.62 and 12.7mm heavy machine guns that are basically useless to the ship!
The number of bomb loads is 150 rounds of 75mm grenades, 300 rounds of 40mm piercing bombs, and 25mm shells, and 5,000 rounds of 25mm shells!
If you use small-caliber machine gun bullets, you can fill more than 30,000 rounds! It's enough for them to toss until the fuel is exhausted!
The condescending air gunboat was stuck in the airspace that American fighter jets could not fly to. The only enemy they faced was the slow Katerina seaplane or the anti-aircraft artillery of destroyers!
But three or four thousand meters away, how can those things be easily discovered? Even if they are discovered, they will only be slaughtered!
After a burst of fanatical cheers on the radio, the fire controller chose a series of targets without hesitation. Whether it is a destroyer or a freighter, there is no need to choose. Anyway, it is the American transport force, just fight!
The most powerful howitzer opened fire first! From thousands of meters away, in the sky, the 75 howitzer in the back seat was slowly and steadily vibrated, spewing out balls of flames, and a series of high-explosive grenades loaded with crystal mixed explosives roared out, and in a flash, it hit the ship below!
The American freighters are all without armor. The ship's steel plate is so weak that they can't even withstand the 12.7mm heavy machine gun, let alone the powerful grenade!
After one shot, the grenades directly hit the thick container pile, or the island at the bow and tail, and exploded violently, and countless containers were bombarded and smashed into the water, or smashed the island!
The earth-shaking scene was really spectacular. An explosion, the smoke rising from the sky shone for more than ten kilometers, which surprised the nearby ships and destroyers and rushed to help!
The "air gunboat" has a big appetite. They don't care about smaller ships in their eyes. They give priority to dealing with big guys over 10,000 tons. But similarly, these guys are stuffed on the decks, and there is almost no gap. When the shells are shot, they are almost difficult to penetrate to the end. They are just blowing away a large number of containers.
So the crew members began to complain that if it weren’t for Boss Zhu’s random authorization, which led to the spread of container and cargo ship technology, how could such a difficult thing to clean up would appear?
Cannonballs are precious and cannot be wasted!
All the air gunboats naturally lowered their heights, aimed at the giant ship from a low altitude, slightly further away, and fired with a 40mm Bofos gun. With an initial velocity of up to 900 meters and a relatively straight ballistic, they easily blasted through the side steel plates of the ship with huge power, exploded and tear open holes, and quickly expanded into uncontrollable cracks under the squeeze pressure of the fully loaded ship itself, and violently flooded, causing the fire to tilt violently!
This is not an ordinary bulk cargo ship. It is a guy with more than 10,000 tons. It is stuffed with a lot of stuff. Once it is tilted, its balance ability will quickly weaken. In addition, the number of people in control has decreased sharply, and the air gunboats are constantly attacking with machine guns. After a few taels of time, a ship will be tilted in the water, hopeless!
The nearby destroyers rushed here desperately! However, no matter how fast they were, they were only about 30 knots, and they were as slow as a snail than the slowest aircraft. Not to mention, all the whereabouts of the destroyers were under close attention and they were not allowed to get close to the range!
What's more, some bold guys will take the destroyer first!
Relying on the advantage of the distance between air and ground, he quietly approached from clouds or low altitudes. Suddenly, he used a howitzer to blast and fired more than a dozen shots in one breath. The slag-like protection of a thousand tons of destroyers could not withstand it, and it immediately exploded and sank or ended in pieces!
Several aerial gunboats were dispatched together, each with a cage of one or two hundred kilometers wide, and all took action until the ammunition was exhausted. Their transaction results were hundreds of ships of various types! The total hunting tonnage easily exceeded one million tons!
Zhu Bin did not follow him this time. He really couldn't be interested in such a battle that bullies the small by bullying the small, but he still paid attention to the remote sub-region. After obtaining the results of the report, he couldn't help but smile and laughed: "Happy! So fucking! Aren't the Americans building ships fast? Isn't there a lot of people and ships? Then let's see if it's more than the number I've blown away!"
How great can Americans build ships? 30 million tons a year? On average, it is only 100,000 tons a day, but the losses are calculated by one million tons! If you continue to do this, you may not be able to bear it in a few days!
The three armies that rushed towards Wake Island had just rushed to a hundred kilometers and were intercepted by a fleet of aircraft descending from the sky. The destroyers responsible for rushing into the destruction rushed in desperately. Clusters of three or four ships formed a sharp-edge formation, penetrated from the middle of the two fleets, intending to use such means to cross the block and break into the core!
It’s beautiful to think about it, but it’s not that easy to succeed!
Chapter completed!
