Chapter 617: 617 horizontal bombing

 Chapter 617617 Horizontal Bombing

"We are finished." Seeing the warships in the distance catching fire and exploding, the Navy Commander of the Goblin Kingdom turned his head, looked at Commander Cyric beside him and said, "My family members are all taking money from your company. So I can only stay here, but in fact, you know better than me that our best choice now is to surrender. "

"Impossible! If we surrender, I, you, and all the family members will not end up well! You know better than me!" In turn, Cyric's commander poked the Goblin Kingdom with his finger. The Navy Commander reminded loudly.

 They have sold their souls to the devil a long time ago, and everything about them no longer belongs to them. So they have no choice but to go all the way to the dark side.

The navy commander of the Goblin Kingdom sighed. He also knew that he had no choice, so he moved his chest away from the opponent's fingers and continued to look at the sea in the distance, watching another warship explode. Come.

 45 warships were all they brought, and now only 30 warships are still running, like panicked deer being hunted by wolves.

They ran in panic, letting the wolves behind them keep slaughtering them. Until the entire army was wiped out, there would be no chance of escape.

 In despair, he had no choice but to close his eyes and not look at the scenes that made him despair. But the terrifying explosion sound was still echoing in his ears, making his body tremble involuntarily.

"Boom!" Another Stuka dive bomber dropped a bomb, but this time it missed. The bomb exploded in the sea water, stirring up a huge water column, making the warships next to the water column look smaller.

The Tang Army still had many planes, but there were indeed very few with bombs attached. After all, most of the Stuka dive bombers were transferred to the Qi front line, and there were not many left.

It’s just that the attacks of these few Stuka dive bombers were so amazing that they left a deep impression on everyone.

Seeing these **** Tang Army planes still lingering like flies, Cyric's commander became agitated again.

He always felt that his battleship would be sunk soon, and he even felt that he could already feel the wet feeling of being soaked in the water.

"We should find a way..." Before he could finish his words, he heard the people outside the bridge scream loudly.

 He saw these people pointing to the sky in the distance, as if they had seen something extraordinary. He quickly pushed aside the other officers on the bridge, walked to the wing bridge next to him, and looked up to see groups of Flying Fortress bombers.

These Flying Fortress bombers fly at a very low altitude, and the open magazines of these aircraft can even be seen on the sea.

 The bombers were arranged in a very dense formation, like black clouds covering the sky, which made people feel desperate just looking at them.

The naval commander-in-chief of the Gobel Kingdom, who had never seen such a scene, was already panicking, because these bombers were obviously preparing to pass through his entire fleet.

This must not be done on a temporary basis, it must be reasonable. Thinking of this, he immediately had a bad premonition.

Soon, he saw what these planes were trying to do. As the first bomb was dropped, raindrops of bombs began to fall from these large bombers.

The bombs dropped at the beginning were still a little messy and gathered together, but soon they were separated by the disturbed airflow, and the bombs finally adjusted their angles, and all the bombs were facing down, and they crashed straight towards the sea.

At the very back of the entire fleet, a water column suddenly rose from the sea, followed by a second water column rising into the sky, then a third, and a fourth...

These water columns were chasing after the rear of the Cyric attack fleet and caught up with a warship traveling at the rear of the fleet. Immediately afterwards, a tragic explosion occurred at the stern of the warship.

The next second, a small black dot dived and crashed into the bridge of the battleship, and then the bridge was lifted into the air by a tragic explosion.

The seawater in the gap between the battleships boiled again, and the water column set off by the explosion shot straight into the sky. The rapidly advancing battleship looked very embarrassed when driving between such water columns.

The battleship that had just managed to survive by turning to evade Cyric, this time it repeated its old tricks and began to evade and turn.

As a result, just as it turned, the bomb that happened to fall fell while it was traveling, hit its front deck, penetrated the deck armor, and entered directly into the ammunition magazine under the front turret.

The spectacular explosion blew off the bow of the battleship. The raised front deck was twisted and deformed, and the broken section was blown away into the sea water along with the front main gun turret.

It weighed several hundred tons, and it was all blown away, which shows how powerful the explosion just now was.

 The front end of the battleship, which had completely lost its driving ability in an instant, had penetrated into the water. Every rotation of the propeller behind it pushed the battleship into the sea.

 “I X!” Cyric’s commander couldn’t help cursing as he saw the dense explosions about to envelop him. He really didn't expect that the other party could be so ungrateful and use such a perverted method to attack his fleet.

 The previous dive bombing seemed to be just an appetizer in front of this kind of horizontal bombing.

 “Damn it…” The navy commander of the Gobel Kingdom saw his fleet was finished, and he cursed in despair.

Just now, he was still rejoicing in his heart, feeling that the number of attacking enemy planes was decreasing and they had a chance to escape.

 In the blink of an eye, more planes flew in, and then launched a new round of attacks in a more brutal and unreasonable way.

Just as the two of them were cursing the shameless and despicable air force of the Tang Kingdom, raindrops of bombs finally began to fall where they were.

The battleship in the distance burst into flames. The explosion blew away some parts on the deck of the battleship. The violent explosion flooded the entire bridge. The towering mast of the battleship slowly broke off, making it look miserable.

Here, a bomb directly hit the flagship of Cyric's sneak attack fleet. The explosion exploded on the rear deck, blowing away the wood on the deck and blowing off half of the stern.

The huge vibration caused everyone on the bridge to fall to the ground. Cyric's commander looked in the direction of the stern of the ship. Although he was blocked by the wall behind and couldn't see anything, he still looked at the vibration. coming direction.

Immediately afterwards, the second bomb exploded in the middle of the ship, engulfing a Maxim heavy machine gun that was firing into the sky. The machine gunner's body was cut into pieces and flew up together with the parts of the Maxim machine gun. sky.

Finally, another bomb hit the bow of Cyric's sneak attack fleet flagship, blowing away the turret there. Thick smoke obscured the view of the bridge, and the burning air waves poured into the bridge. The unpleasant burnt smell made people feel uncomfortable. It became difficult to breathe.

 Because the bombs mounted on the Flying Fortress are small in size, all are aerial bombs of 250 kilograms and smaller, the penetration effect is slightly worse.

 In addition, most of these aerial bombs have not yet had time to replace the cutting-edge delay fuses, so only traditional impact fuses are installed.

 Such a fuze is actually of average effect when damaging the hull, but it is still very effective in destroying the superstructure of the warship.

Although being hit by these aerial bombs will not cause the warships to flood rapidly and sink quickly, after being covered and bombed in this way, the speed of these warships has all been reduced, and the deck firepower of resistance has basically disappeared.

Finally getting up from the ground, the naval commander of the Kingdom of Goblins propped his hands on the chart table and looked at the messy bridge.

 Some people were injured due to the shock and were lying on the ground with their faces covered in blood. Some people stumbled up and their arms were obviously broken.

 Although they were not directly hit, the commanders on the bridge were not having an easy time. By the time they remembered who they were, their battleship had begun to tilt slightly.

Although the explosions and vibrations did not directly destroy the hull, they could still distort the steel plates and leave some cracks and gaps in the hull. There is a lot of seawater pouring into these scars, and if damage control is not in place, there may be more and more.

"Quick! Repair quickly! Repair the warship!" The somewhat experienced naval commander of the Gobel Kingdom immediately issued an order. Having commanded a sail battleship, he knew the disastrous consequences of a steel battleship if it was not rescued.

The commander of Cyric, who finally got up, was frightened at this moment. He had no actual combat experience. After walking around the gate of hell, he was frightened out of fear.

Other battleships ahead were currently covered in a rain of bombs dropped by carpet bombing, and one after another caught fire and exploded.

 The entire fleet has been plunged into a sea of ​​fire. On the left deck of a battleship that was traveling at the front, a shooter who controlled a Maxim heavy machine gun tragically raised his machine gun, faced the dark clouds of bombers overhead, and pulled the trigger under his finger. .

"Go to hell! Devils! Ah!" He roared in despair, the bullet chain on the side of the machine gun kept beating, and the bullet casing fell to the deck at his feet, making a clanging sound.

With his roar, an aerial bomb fell straight down, expanding in his eyes. Finally, the bomb hit the position of the heavy machine gun, then exploded, swallowing everything around it in an instant.

The formation of Flying Fortress roared over the explosion flames. One of the planes was hit by a sudden bullet, which startled the pilot who was flying the plane.
