After driving away the British fighter jets, the bombers once again visited the port of Alexandria in the fighter jets.

I saw dense fire in the port. British officers and soldiers were operating various anti-aircraft weapons, constantly firing at the incoming Romanian aircraft.

In the face of the air defense firepower on the port and warships, Lieutenant Colonel Elsted, who led the team this time, clearly felt that the firepower had not improved much.

I saw him immediately give orders. "The first dive squadron began to attack the ground. The second dive squadron attacked the shipyard. The third dive squadron attacked the Malaya. The fourth and fifth squadrons were on alert."

As his voice fell, the RU18T dive bomber immediately separated several waves and flew towards their respective targets.

And he did not stop continuing to command. "The first squadron of HF201 fighter jets immediately harassed ground air defense. The first and second squadrons of H57 torpedo aircraft waited for the opportunity to look for their targets."

As a result, several more planes separated their teams.

In the face of several incoming aircraft formations in Romania, the port’s air defense firepower became even more fierce. There were even British soldiers holding Lewis and cloth wheel machine guns and chasing them at the incoming aircraft.

And Cunningham and Hawkins, who were watching the battle somewhere in the port, felt a bit of a heartache when they saw a bomber formation leaving.

"No, this is going to blow up the shipyard."

This is Hawkins could not help but yell out, Alexander has a naval shipyard, mainly to provide repair and maintenance of warships. Looking at the way it went, it was obvious that he went straight to the naval shipyard.

Sure enough, two minutes later, the naval shipyard’s air defense fire was loud, but several violent explosions could still be heard. I knew it was the explosion of a 500KG bomb.

But after a while the phone rang, the officer on one side picked up the phone.

"Here is... ok... um... I see."

The officer who put down the phone came to Cunningham to report, "Your Excellency the report commander, the naval shipyard just called. The shipyard was attacked and suffered heavy losses. The specific losses cannot be estimated. However, according to preliminary estimates, the shipyard wants to repair large-scale repairs. For warships, it will take at least 5 months."

"Okay, got it."

After the general was sent away, Cunningham still kept his eyes on the situation in the port.

It's just that the officer's report made Hawkins unable to sit still. "It won't work like this, we must find a way."

Facing Hawkins, Cunningham replied without looking back. "I think of any way, all the losses I have suffered so far are not as important as keeping these warships."

That's right, Cunningham concentrated most of the air defense firepower in the port, just to keep these battleships.

At this moment, two dive bombers that wanted to penetrate the defense were hit by anti-aircraft fire and turned into two large fireballs in the air.

This caused Cunningham to applaud again and again, "It's a good fight, the boys should fight like this."

It was just that this might have angered the air raid fleet, and saw the Romanian attacking fleet, and the warships that were not in charge of the port began to target the surrounding air defense facilities.

"boom!"

A temporary air defense firepoint surrounded by sandbags was hit by a 60KG aerial bomb. The soldiers operating this 20mm anti-aircraft gun were swallowed up by the explosion before they even had time to scream. The 20mm anti-aircraft gun it operated was thrown high and fell heavily to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion. It's just that the broken barrel of the gun shows that this anti-aircraft gun is completely scrapped.

Such battles are staged everywhere in Alexandria. It's just that the dive bombers are the best at doing this, and they are expert at dealing with these fixed firepower points.

As one of the few 4.5-inch anti-aircraft gun positions in Alexandria, the No. 3 anti-aircraft position is a rare reinforced-bar soil structure air defense tower. The installation of four 4.5-inch anti-aircraft guns on it is very important to defend Alexandria. During the last air strike, two 4.5-inch anti-aircraft guns were destroyed.

In the Romanian air strike this time, the gunners of the remaining two 4.5-inch anti-aircraft guns kept firing gunfire with the idea of ​​revenge for their colleagues.

And its fierce counterattack naturally attracted the attention of the air strikes. I saw two dive bombers climbed up high and started diving attacks on them.

The screaming siren went from far to near, and the No. 3 air defense battlefield was still holding on.

At this time, there was a loud bang, and a dive bomber was blown out in the air. The huge fireball told others about the achievements of the No. 3 air defense tower, but after the fireball, another dive bomber came out and dropped to the dangerous cordon of 800 meters before dropping a 1000KG bomb.

The huge bomb carried the acceleration brought by the dive bomber and slid through the top of the tower that could withstand 500-pound bombs.

"Boom~"

With a loud explosion, the anti-aircraft tower has turned into a cloud of dust. And Donilk of the dive bomber waved his hand, expressing his excitement at the destruction of the air defense tower that killed his comrades.

After gradually destroying the surrounding fire, the remaining bombers began to attack the port warships.

This time the bombing changed the strategy. Although the small warships that have been annoying have become the target, the light cruiser has become the focus of it, and the 10,000-ton light cruiser Edinburgh has become the thorn in the air strike group.

This light cruiser has powerful anti-aircraft firepower. In addition to 12 152-caliber main guns, it also has 12 4-inch (101.6 mm) caliber anti-aircraft guns, 16 QF 2-pound (40 mm caliber) banging guns, and 8 12.7 guns. Millimeter caliber anti-aircraft machine gun.

In the previous airstrikes, the aircraft group was greatly disturbed, and now they plan to use the squat warship first.

I saw four dive bombers, one from the left and the other from the right. The 1,000 kg bombs under their belly were enough to make them immobile.

Obviously, the Edinburgh also knew this. Its anti-aircraft artillery fired fiercely, and its speed increased, and it was doing various maneuvers in the narrow harbor.

"Boom~"

A dive bomber was hit, encouraging the soldiers on the Edinburgh to boost their confidence.

Only the remaining three dive bombers were never hit again. They reached a predetermined altitude and dropped a bomb in their belly.

Facing the bombs falling from the sky, the captain of the Edinburgh personally operated the rudder to try to avoid the bombs.

"boom!"

A bomb fell into the sea near it, and the explosion caused fluctuations in the current, causing the Edinburgh to sway.

"boom!"

The second bomb was not so lucky. It fell on the No. 2 turret, and the weak top armor could not stop it from entering. It exploded in the turret and exploded at the same time. The scattered fragments caused a large number of casualties, reducing the anti-aircraft firepower by half.

"boom!"

And the third one did not fall on the ship, but fell into the sea along the stern, and the explosion it caused happened to blow up the rudder.

This completely lost control of the Edinburgh, and slammed into the destroyer Cuckoo, which was unable to dodge. This warship of no more than 1,000 tons, no matter where it was the opponent of the 10,000-ton light cruiser, was directly sunk.

Edinburgh was also knocked to the right at the same time, and his right was a war exhaustion. Seeing the Edinburgh heading straight to her, War-weary was shocked and could only give way quickly. And such a move allowed the war exhaustion to widen the distance from the other two battleships, and at the same time allowed the attacking fleet to see an opportunity.

I saw the H57 torpedo, which had been waiting impatiently, immediately rushed up, and its target was obviously the war exhaustion that was temporarily isolated.

When the war exhaustion saw the incoming torpedo machine, it naturally did not dare to neglect. In addition to maximizing the effect of his own air defense firepower, he also began to prepare for torpedo attacks.

The war exhaustion swooped directly to the southwest corner, where the Malaya had already been bombarded in turn. And Malaya is not afraid of relying on the advantage of stranding, and it fought with the incoming fighters vigorously.

Obviously, the idea of ​​war-weary is also known to the incoming fleet. I saw the H57 torpedo machine rushing all the way with the air defense blow after being lowered. Arrived at the launch area, dropped the torpedo in the belly~lightnovelpub.net~ Nearly a dozen torpedoes rushed straight towards the war exhaustion, which immediately made the war exhaustion full of rudder to the left, and jokingly avoided the most dangerous left. Three torpedoes, and then began to hit the rudder to the right to avoid the torpedo from the right.

Only more than a dozen torpedoes came from all directions, which made it impossible for the war exhaustion to completely avoid it, and saw two torpedoes in the midship of the ship. The sea water frantically poured into the cabin, making the war exhaustion even slower.

This naturally caused a larger wave of torpedo attacks.

Nearly twenty torpedo planes were dispatched together to launch a siege on the war exhaustion. After hitting 7 torpedoes, the war exhaustion couldn't support it anymore. The sinking of the Warspite also let the other two battleships know that they would be able to go down here, and they ran aground to the shore after each bearing the cost of a torpedo. As for the Nelson, after the airstrike fleet launched two torpedoes to confirm that it had rolled over, it did not take care of it.

And this attack caused the Mediterranean Fleet to reduce the number of two battleships again, but the attacking fleet did not know that the commander of the fleet on the other side of the fleet had a dispute with the chief of staff.
