Chapter 718 Target 719Demon Realm, Sea of Storms, flagship of the Alanhill 1st Cruiser Fleet all the way south along the coastline Above, Captain Pullen Ayke is looking at the demon battleship in the distance.
A fire sea has been ignited on this demon battleship, and two cannonballs hit it, making it what it is now.
The amazing thing is that this demon battleship didn't explode, so it was still on the sea. On the Alanhill battleship that passed by, many sailors were watching the demon battleship on the deck, as if they were watching a landscape.
"No wonder it didn't explode, it turned out to be a sailboat." Pullen Acre's flagship has a displacement of more than 20,000 tons and is equipped with a standard 203 mm caliber. It is a standard Deme Yin-class cruiser.
It is the strongest cruiser in World War II era, and of course one of the largest cruisers, due to its superior individual combat capability and super fast firing rate of artillery.
Only with its main guns, it can easily defeat all enemies - this new cruiser is also equipped with the most powerful and advanced fire control radar, which can easily hit 20 kilometers away. large target.
"Does demons also use sailboats?" The adjutant put down the telescope in his hand and joked.
After they came to Demon Realm, as a patrol fleet outside the core fleet, they have sunk several demon battleships.
Most of the time, demon battleships are made of steel, and the propulsion system is similar to human battleships. Use magic liquid as fuel, very dangerous and easy to explode.
These stereotypes have now been overturned, and the demon's battleship also has sailboats, equipped with old-fashioned ballistas, with similar combat capabilities to the fishing boats Alanhill uses today.
Yes, about as many as fishing boats. After all, Alanhill's whaling ships also had ballistas, and the range and destructive power may not be much worse than this ancient ballista. What is even more exaggerated is that the whaling ships are all steel hulls, and now in Alanhill, fewer and fewer people use sailboats.
Of course, sailboats are not without them. Today, in Alanhill, nobles are keen to own their own yachts and show off their wealth.
There are of course two types of yachts, one with a power system and the other with an ancient sailboat style—both types of boats have their own advantages, but sailboats are obviously more playable. Just like a manual transmission car, it requires the driver to have some skills and is more topical.
"It seems that their war potential has been completely exhausted." Pullen Ayke sighed with emotion, taking his eyes back from the sinking sailboat.
The only reason this sailboat has survived to this day is because the 203mm heavy artillery shells passed through its hull and did not explode inside the battleship.
But its sinking is a matter of time, after all, no wooden sailboat can withstand strikes with a 203mm caliber gun.
"These demons are so damn damn good... when they showed off one's military strength, they slaughtered us humans at will, and now that we're up, they know they're surrendering with a white flag." Seeing that side from telescope The dazzling white flag, the adjutant complained in a cold tone.
"Let the secondary artillery fire...an eyesore." Pullen Aike frowned and ordered.
The adjutant nodded, grabbed the phone beside him, and ordered: "The secondary artillery fired! Send those bastards to hell!"
"weng!" On the deck on the side of the battleship, air defense The 127mm caliber twin-mounted secondary guns used began to turn on electricity, and the two black muzzles were aimed at the helpless white flag in the flames.
"Fire!" The commander on the gun position gave the order softly, and the gunner pressed the switch to fire.
"bang! bang!" The two artillery fired tongues of fire, and the two shells hit the waterline of the distant demon sailing battleship.
A huge jet of water was stirred up, and the wooden sailboat tilted and broke at a speed visible to the naked eye. It could no longer support the tossing, and could no longer carry its own weight, and quickly rolled over on the sea.
The broken masts and the canvas connected to the masts were soaked in the sea water, and the demon soldiers on the hull were struggling to survive.
However, it is clear that they have no chance to live anymore. The nearest coastline is hundreds of kilometers away, and they have no way to return to land alive.
At this time, on the outermost side of the entire 1st Cruiser Fleet, an Aegis destroyer for air defense suddenly spewed out a thick white smoke. This thick smoke shot straight into the sky, followed by a second white smoke that rose from the ground.
Those were two "standard" anti-aircraft missiles, apparently the destroyer had spotted something and immediately launched an attack on the enemy in the distance.
"The Barrots has found an air target! It's very fast!" An officer in charge of liaison saw the real-time intelligence transmitted on his computer monitor and immediately reported loudly.
"Air Force? Extremely fast? Demon missile?" Pullen Acer was taken aback, then walked to the intelligence analysis screen shared by the data link, and saw the incoming target, which was approaching little by little. own fleet.
"Let the anti-aircraft destroyer shoot it down." He gave the order, then went to the porthole in front of the bridge and looked at the sailboat that had sunk on 2/3/2022: "Strange , isn't there anything important on this ship?"
Just when he asked this unanswered question to himself, the vertical launch system on another destroyer started to work, and two The same "standard" anti-aircraft missiles soared into the sky and flew directly to distant targets.
Obviously, the two missiles just launched did not hit the target, and it was still approaching the fleet, as if it simply didn't care about the missiles that came.
"Hu! Hu!" Just as Pullen Acer was in a daze, another missile on a destroyer flew into the sky, and the USS Barrots, which first found the target, was another one. Tone fired two missiles.
"Eight anti-aircraft missiles? Intercepting one target?" Pullen Aike is also an old naval commander. He has never seen a situation where only one target makes the Aegis destroyer so busy .
At this moment, he felt the seriousness of the matter - the target was obviously not some demon missile or the evil Demon General, it was obviously a higher level enemy!
"weng!" The inscription on the outermost guided missile destroyer hull began to flash, and the entire outer layer of the destroyer was covered with a magical defense barrier.
Afterwards, destroyers one after another opened their own magical defense barriers, and the 1st cruiser fleet was shrouded in a ray of light.
"Squeak..." In the next second, all the battleship's close-range rapid-fire guns pointed to the sky on one side. ►
There will be more in a while
