The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1390: Overthrow

Chapter 1390 Destruction (1)

The K-6 bomber is like an eagle driving a rabbit. The German destroyer is the hunter who gives the prey the last blow! These blindly running rabbits would directly hit the hunter’s muzzle if they didn’t know anything. Under the impact of air cannon bullets, surface artillery shells, and torpedoes, a Russian destroyer was beaten and paralyzed on the sea. The 4 light cruisers also performed very well. In this wave of battles, they also destroyed at least 2 Russian destroyers!

When the remaining Russian destroyers and torpedo boats evacuated towards the main fleet. The situation on the battlefield has once again turned around. At this time, the number of Russian aircraft still flying in the sky is less than double digits. The smoke canisters of the Baltic Fleet were finally exhausted. At this time, a sea breeze blew by, and the already thin smoke screen was blown away in an instant. The towering figure of the Izmail-class battleship reappeared in front of the German pilots! The remaining Russian destroyers followed!

"God, did you throw us to the devil?" Looking at the German fleet like hungry wolves in the distance and the bomber group standing by in the air. Lieutenant General Basilev lamented in despair!

When the fuel in the last smoke canister was used up, a few Russian soldiers stiffly pushed these things into the sea. When the smoke cleared, almost all Russian naval officers and soldiers realized that the final moment was coming! Most of them will probably sink into the sea with their warships, and never return to their home port in the Gulf of Finland!

"Okay, now it's time to end everything. All fleets are divided into two groups. Remember our goal today! Don't let a Russian battleship go out of Riga Bay!" Accompanied by the transmission of radio and various signals, The Bavarian bomber formation, which had been waiting for a while, began its final attack on the two remaining battleships in the Russian Baltic Sea! At this time, there are still more than 70 bombers carrying heavy bombs and torpedoes in the sky! They have enough ammunition to destroy these guys!

Four bombers and six torpedo crews became the first wave of attacks. They aimed at the Izmail, the bomber flew directly over the target, and the torpedo planes were divided into two groups, one left and one right were double-teamed at the same time! The Russian anti-aircraft machine gun roared hard, and a series of tracer bullets flew in the air. Archers go crazy and usually attach boxes of ammunition to the chain. The brass shells on the ground have covered the deck, but the death gods in the air are not afraid. A K-6 bomber is at a height of 80 meters. A 550KG armor-piercing bullet was dropped!

The location of the bomb hit was on the port side of the battleship! The armor plate of the top gun gallery was directly penetrated, and then it exploded after hitting the inclined part of the side of the dome all the way down. Although it did not directly penetrate the core compartment, the violent explosion made half of the gun gallery area sit. Once a plane! No way, a shell transport channel was destroyed, and the flying shrapnel and flames directly ignited the shells and propellant in the conveyor. A series of explosions caused several decks to shiver and tear like an earthquake. Piles of flames and shock waves rushed out from under the deck, blowing up half of the gun gallery deck!

Even after receiving a heavy blow, the Izmail persisted. The four rudders were constantly adjusting their angles. The more than 20 boilers in the boiler room were also used to their limit. The entire warship carried The thick smoke and flames of the sidestring rushed across the sea at a speed of more than 24 knots, dodge the bombs falling from the air from time to time!

"This guy, it's hard to hit." A German pilot said with dissatisfaction looking at the bomb falling into the sea. Although the first bomb made a good start, the other two 550KG bombs were thrown directly into the sea, and the two 250KG high-explosive bombs dropped by the four bombers also hit one, tearing apart a few square meters directly at the stern. Big hole. Set a fire by the way.

What is really terrible is this wave of lightning! Six torpedo machines entered the arena almost at the same time, reaching the target like two arms of a giant! As if to strangle the opponent! Perhaps it was because the Izmail had done too many maneuvers before evading bombing, which caused a significant reduction in speed. At this time, facing lightning strikes in two directions is already a little weak. This time is obviously when you are sick and killing you!

800 meters! The two sets of torpedo machines dropped the torpedoes almost at the same time, and the six torpedoes rushed towards the target in two fan-shaped like swordfish!

"Left full rudder!" Following Basilev's command, Izmail's steering gear was hit to the maximum in an instant, and even the hull of the ship was tilted. However, when the battleship was still turning left, the sudden news that a torpedo was found on the right made the lieutenant command an order to turn in the opposite direction!

No way, this is the horror of cross lightning strikes. When the distance is close enough and both sides are fan-fired torpedoes, turning left or right will be very dangerous. And to be honest, when the Russian navy battleship's air defense firepower tends to be more courageous, and there is no aircraft cover in the air, the German bombers can even be considered to be conducted in an exercise environment!

One of the three torpedoes on the left passed through the wake of the ship, and the other was almost close to the stern. And the third torpedo may have a problem with its attitude and depth when entering the water ~lightnovelpub.net~ passing under the battleship. This made the Russians on the Izmail scared into a cold sweat and felt extremely grateful. But before they had time to breathe. When the heart that jumped to the throat went back, a loud noise made the entire battleship tremble!

On the right, two 450MM torpedoes hit this poor German fast battleship almost simultaneously! One shot hit the stern, and the other hit the middle of the hull! The torpedo hit the stern directly blew up 2 steering gears and a propeller! And left a huge pit with an area of ​​more than ten square meters and a length of more than ten meters on the hull! The entire battleship was instantly like a giant with feet, hobbled on the sea!

The other torpedo also tore a huge hole in the middle of the hull, but maybe because the hit situation was not ideal, this torpedo did not completely penetrate the Izmail underwater defense system, countless shrapnel and high temperature. The high-pressure air bubbles were blocked in front of the last layer of steel plate, but even so, it still brought more than 900 tons of water into the warship! And part of the hull has been damaged. Under the squeeze of the seawater, cracks appeared one after another. Therefore, although there was no direct breakdown, a large amount of seawater still entered the core compartment along the cracks and cracks.
