The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1391: Overthrow

Chapter 1391 Destruction (2)

However, this has already made a very good start. When the first batch of torpedo planes just left, the second wave of torpedo planes also arrived quickly. This time there were still 6 planes, but they chose the direction of attack. It's the right side of Thunder! The 6 planes were divided into two groups of 4 and 2, exploding a new round of attacks! But this time, because it was a single-sided torpedo attack, the first group of four bombers chose a centripetal attack. The four torpedo planes formed an arc, and the center of the arc was the battleship Izmail!

Nearly 2,000 tons of water have been flooded. For the Russian fast battleship with two missiles, this hit is simply tragic! A torpedo hit the ammunition depot near the second turret! The 195KG high explosive directly blasted and smashed the TDS defense system with a length of ten meters outside the hull! In order to prevent the propellant in the lower level of the ammunition depot from being ignited, Lieutenant General Bahirev had to order the filling of the No. 2 ammunition depot. And when this order is issued, the water intake of the warship will directly increase to more than 3,500 tons. It does not mean that the cost of water injection in the ammunition depot is so high... But because there is too much water on one side, it needs to be counterbalanced. Otherwise the boat will capsize!

However, in less than 30 seconds, the fourth torpedo hit completely ended the efforts of the Russian fast battleship! The torpedo hit near the boiler compartment, and the energy of the explosion tore apart the last layer of lightning protection armor outside the boiler compartment. Turbulent sea water poured into the entire boiler compartment. In a very short period of time, 16 boilers in the compartment went out one after another. . Swirls of shrapnel cut a group of pipes directly. The sea water even caused the boilers in operation to explode one after another. In just a few tens of seconds, the boiler compartment that was hit has turned into a swimming pool. After being hit by this torpedo, even if there is no more attack, this ship is destined to be irretrievable!

But the Germans don't know. The last two torpedo bombers flew slowly and slowly to the side of the Russian battleship that had been severely damaged, with a speed of only about 8 knots, and was almost uncontrollable, like executioners. The German pilot above even had time to admire the beaten half-dead guy.

"Like the dying giants and gods of the gods after dusk, the battleship Izmail finally ushered in its final moments. The length of this ship is even comparable to the Bavarian-class battleship, equipped with 12 powerful 14-inch guns. The battleship could have prospered in the ocean. Perhaps the Russians had thought about the final outcome of this battleship. Perhaps it was a battle on the ocean until it was finally destroyed by an existence such as a Bavarian-class battleship. Perhaps it survived the entire service period safely, and then It was dismantled. But they never imagined that they would eventually be killed by a group of little guys weighing less than 8 tons in a very short time."

"It's obviously better to use torpedoes against this guy than bombs. The fire on the ship is not too big. But the entire side chord has been broken. The entire side of the ship has been hit by a series of torpedoes. These areas The breaches ranging from a few square meters to more than ten square meters are like the big mouth of a giant beast's blood basin. Thick smoke and white water vapor emerge from it, and sea water is poured in continuously. Maybe a few minutes later, this The guy will eventually return to the embrace of the sea." After a German pilot felt it in his heart, without saying a word, he once again shot a torpedo at the scarred starboard side! After the torpedo hit, the battleship Izmail sank to the bottom of the sea in less than a minute!

"Okay, we only have the last goal now!" Looking at the fast battleship Izmail, which is rapidly sinking to the bottom of the sea, Harrell's mood is more than comfortable now? ! That's pretty cool, OK? ! His original oath-let General Hipper go for nothing. It seems that it is almost done! "Madan, I didn't even think that he would be so powerful when he initiated the rush!" Major General Harrell said in his heart.

"Hurry up, finish the work!" Major General Harel fixed his gaze on the last Russian battleship! Now, he still has nearly 16 torpedo bombers in his hands, enough to send the opponent into the sea! It doesn't matter if it's not enough, anyway, Hopman's light cruisers and destroyers have almost slaughtered the Russian destroyers. After damaging the Eagle, it will be done.

"Fuck?! So decisive?!" After seeing the action of the Eagle, Major General Harrell knew that today it must be impossible to sink this guy, at most it will only destroy... Because this Russian battleship is desperately rushing to talk, this guy is going to beach!

After the beach, the ship ran aground and hit the bottom. How do you use torpedoes to hit it? The remaining dozen or so torpedo machines are probably completely useless. There is no way, you can't sink a stranded battleship...

"The Russians should have realized that they could not escape, so in order to avoid being sunk, or to save more people, the Eagle decided to rush to the beach. At the same time, there may also be luck to avoid the attack, and then rely on the remaining artillery on the ship. The preparation of the fort. In short, it is a pity for us to fail to completely sink all the battleships of the Russian Baltic Fleet to the bottom of the sea." Major General Harrell wrote in his report.

"Um, tell the next, don't waste the bombers coming out with the torpedoes. Let's start with the Russian transport ships in the Gulf of Riga. All the remaining bombers come over and let us completely deal with this big guy!" Major General Harrell ordered. The battleship after the beach can still be used as a fixed turret, so as long as the battleship is considered to have combat effectiveness, then the attack must not be stopped!

So ~lightnovelpub.net~ Whether it is a German or a Russian, almost all witnessed a real rain of fire! Dozens of bombers flew over the grounded Russian battleship with dozens of tons of bombs, and in a very short time they completely blasted this battleship into a burning torch!

"At the most intense time, in less than a minute, this warship was hit by a powerful armor-piercing projectile at least three times! One shot hit the No. 1 turret and the second shot near the main mast. Just hit the top. The rangefinder exploded. The other shot hit the flue in the middle of the hull. It is certain that the flue armor was penetrated and the lower boiler compartment should have been damaged to a certain extent. Because we saw a large number of White steam and thick black smoke gushed out from inside, covering most of the hull.” A German naval officer recalled the scene in this way.

The bomb dropped like rain on this poor warship, and there was not even a complete area on the outer deck that was not covered by flames. Accompanied by bursts of crackling sounds, a pillar of fire that was hundreds of meters high rose into the sky. Thick smoke rises into the air, and can be seen even tens of kilometers away!
