1392 Destruction 3

Anti-pirated chapter~~~! I have changed it in my old time~~~!

The second torpedo hit the lower half of the No. 3 turret. (There are two of the four turrets in Gangut in the middle of the hull.) The attacking German pilot clearly saw that the steel plates were blown into pieces under the huge explosion. The entire warship seemed to be shaking from a distance, and waves of dull explosions kept coming from the sea. "I thought we detonated the ammunition depot!" A German pilot recalled the scene after the war.

However, there is no explanation for whether to directly detonate the ammunition depot. However, according to the confessions of the Russian naval officers and soldiers who were fished out after the war, they did pour water into the ammunition compartment at the bottom of the No. 3 turret after being hit by the second torpedo. The reason is to prevent the ammunition depot from exploded...

After a torpedo attack on the left wing, the bomber troops on the right wing also launched a torpedo attack. The hit rate of this lightning strike was worse. Only one of the three aircraft hit, but this torpedo also hit the stern of the ship that had been severely damaged. With a loud bang, the servo cabin of the Gangut and another transmission shaft were completely destroyed! Two consecutive torpedoes hit the stern of the ship. The entire stern had reached the edge of breaking from the warship. After pouring in huge amounts of sea water, the huge gravity acted on the already severely damaged hull structure. The sound of explosions and metal breaking made the Russian naval officers and soldiers on the ship feel scared.

The entire bow even rose slightly. At this time, a bomber arrived later threw a 550kg bomb directly near the No. 4 turret in a shallow dive. The shell directly penetrated the 4th deck and finally penetrated the entire engine compartment! After all, Gangut's horizontal defense strength is incomparable to the super fearless Izmael-class battleship.

A ball of hot fireballs soared into the air from the middle and rear of the battleship, and the entire engine room was blown to pieces. So far, although the warship still floated on the water, everyone knew that the warship was dead! The rear of the warship began to slowly sink to the bottom of the sea. More than ten minutes later, under the action of huge gravity, (too much water in the back of the hull) the bow of the warship was lifted high from the water. In the end, almost half of the hull quickly inserted into the water, and the Gangute sank into the bottom of the sea!

The third one to attend was the Fourth Bomber Squadron, who aimed at the battleship Sevastopol, another brother of the Gangut. The battleship had also been started and was ready to evacuate the battlefield under the escort of four destroyers. The 130mm artillery and machine guns on the four destroyers kept spitting bullets at the group of aircraft whistling down in the air. The Russians arranged this time pretty well. The four destroyers were in groups of battleships in the middle. The slender hull of the destroyers blocked the track of torpedo attacks, and the artillery and machine guns above also posed a great threat to the torpedo attack aircraft flying against the sea.

Therefore, the Fourth Bomber Squadron decided to use bombs to kill these guys! At this time, the K-6 bombers of other airlines that had already dropped the bombs flew over the battlefield to provide fire cover. Although these death angels have thrown away their most lethal weapons, the dense machine guns and machine guns all over their bodies still make them very lethal to small destroyers!

A bomber approaches the target quickly from 7 o'clock, just like a wolf pack that quickly attacks prey from behind. For targets like destroyers, if they attack from the front or side, the attack time will be very short because they are very fast, and from the back, because there is a compensation for the pursuit speed, the relative speed will not be very fast, and attacking from the back can avoid a considerable amount of air-to-air firepower.

The K-6 bomber reduced the altitude to about 50 meters and then maintained its flight attitude. The two 20mm machine guns at the head of the aircraft, a twin 12.7mm machine gun tower at the lower part of the belly, and two large-caliber machine guns located on the upper part of the aircraft. They aimed at the Russian destroyer that was sailing at a speed of 12 knots.

Accompanied by the roar of the machine gun, the Russians began to tilt the bullets 1,500 meters away at the behemoth spreading more than 20 meters of the wing. Fire snakes were flying in the air. Four temporary machine guns behind the destroyer tried to build a fire net to prevent the other party from approaching.

"There is no artillery, only 4 machine guns, safe!" The German pilot commented on the Russians' air defense firepower. To be honest, this firepower is not as strong as the Russian Ilya bomber... It is difficult to shoot 4 machine guns from the ground to deal with trainers, let alone deal with this type of k-6 bomber with a maximum take-off weight of more than 7 tons!

With a few harsh sounds, several bullets hit the bomber, just piercing a few holes into the fuselage. One bullet hit the bulletproof steel plate on the front of the pilot, leaving two silver-white bullet marks. This was what I only knew later...

"The element of air shooting is to pull the trigger when the target fills the entire scope." The pilot recalled how his teacher taught him at the flight school.

"Teacher, what if we were going to shoot ground targets?" He was still a young man at the time and didn't know why, maybe it was a joke or serious matter, so he asked the teacher this question.

"It's very simple, shoot when the target is filled with half a scope!" the teacher replied with a smile. Now, the student has worked hard to practice what he learned in class.

The destroyer, which is more than 70 meters long, was quickly filled with half a scope. When the two sides were about 700 meters apart, the pilot pulled the trigger. With a slight vibration, a series of shells flew out of the gun mouth, and hundreds of rounds of 20mm and 12.7mm ammunition formed an elliptical landing area on the sea surface. This area was also accompanied by the plane moving forward quickly. After a few seconds, the entire destroyer was covered.

The 20mm armor-piercing incendiary bomb easily left bullet holes as big as fists on the partitions of the cabin. The shells tore the machine guns, personnel and other things into pieces. The whole teak deck was ignited. Balls of flames jumped at the back of the deck. After a while, the dozen Russian naval officers and soldiers who were originally active on the rear deck of the destroyer were now only a ball of minced meat and red blood.
