The disaster that caused the US submarine before it had even left the Florida naval base cast a shadow over the admirals of the navy.Originally, they were a little afraid of the navy of the Huaxing Army, but now they have to bite the bullet and prepare for the upcoming sea battle.The two sides arranged their own troops on the east coast of the United States, and the sea hundreds of miles wide was densely covered with warships.Robert Kunz, commander of the U.S. fleet, personally took a warship to the front line to direct the battle.Although I had already heard of the name of the Huaxing Navy, I couldn't help but be taken aback after seeing the ships of the Huaxing Army.The opposing ship's ships were completely arranged around four 30,000-ton aircraft carriers, and the command ship that Robert Kunz was riding on was like a baby in front of the aircraft carrier.With a displacement of only 5,000 tons, it is only one-sixth the size of the opposing aircraft carrier.Even so, Robert Kunz did not want to lose morale, and ordered the whole army to continue to act according to the original plan.The U.S. fleet has a numerical advantage, with more than 1,000 warships of various types, which is twice the size of the Huaxing fleet.So, at the very beginning of the battle, the American fleet wanted to win by numbers.While assembling ordinary ships to hold the middle line, more than 300 warships were sent to each of the two wings to outflank and encircle the fleet of the Huaxing Army.To Robert Kunz's surprise, the fleet of the Huaxing Army knew that this was an encirclement, but still rushed in without hesitation, and the target was the American fleet in the middle line.Deng Shichang had already exchanged views with Liu Buyun and Lin Taizeng, and had already decided to quickly destroy the US mid-line fleet before the two wings of the United States were outflanked.In this way, the two wings of the American fleet could not be combined, and it was easy to be broken by the Huaxing Army.The most important word of this tactic is "fast," concentrating all superior firepower to quickly break through the defense system of the US mid-line fleet.There are more than 600 warships on both sides, and the key to the confidence of the three commanders of the Huaxing Army lies in their timely communication and liaison with the air force and submarine force.The American fleet is still too arrogant, even if they have an advantage in the number of ships, but after all, the combat effectiveness is a little worse.At this time, the best strategy is to concentrate all efforts on attack and defense, and it is really taboo for soldiers to divide troops and advance rashly.Robert Kunz saw the Huaxing army fleet rushing towards quickly, and his face was full of incredulity.According to his judgment, the fleet of the Huaxing Army must first deal with the two-wing fleet to prevent it from falling into an encircled situation.Who would have thought that Huaxingjun would be so violent, and he would rush up against the strongest middle line.He quickly gave the order through the wireless communication device, and the two wings of the ships were quickly closed.In addition, the ships on the middle line would rather die than retreat, and must hold their respective defensive lines and encircle and annihilate the Huaxing army.When the ships of the two sides were separated by 10,000 meters, the main guns of the Huaxing fleet began to fire.The rumble raged on the sea, and the shells shot out at a rapid pace, and in a parabolic line, they quickly fell in the American fleet on the opposite side.Waterfalls several meters high rolled up in the explosion of 500 catties of shells.The ships of the Huaxing Army have been tempered by the Great War in Europe, and their range has been quite accurate.The fleet fired in a staggered pattern, and after the first platoon finished firing, the second platoon followed closely and fired the shells.The cannonballs in the sky fell like meteorites, and there were bursts of whistling sounds in the air, and soon there were bursts of roars at the target point.The range of the main guns of the US warships is only more than 5,000 meters at the most, and they can only be beaten passively at a distance of 10,000 meters.The firing speed of the Huaxing Army's main guns has been increased from one fire every ten minutes at the beginning to one fire every five minutes now.Every time the ship marched three or four hundred meters, a batch of shells was fired from the main guns.The captains of the U.S. fleet were about to cry, and they all faced the gunboats of the Huaxing Army with their side sides in place.Because of the order of the commander Robert Kunz, no one dared to give the order to retreat privately.I could only watch as the shells came and exploded in all directions of the ship.Some ships were concentrated by several shells and were directly blown to pieces.Within half an hour of the start of the battle, more than a dozen battleships had already caught fire and sunk.The captains of the other battleships were so frightened that they had no choice but to order the gunners to fire back with all their guns, and they did not dare to reach the range.And this was just an appetizer for the Huaxing Army, while the ships on the sea were fighting fiercely.The 2,000 planes deployed at the base in Mexico have already taken off one after another, and they are coming in dense directions towards the combat area.Originally, the submarine force cooperated, but as soon as the submarine force left the Gulf of Mexico, it encountered the US submarine force.After a war between the two sides, the ammunition of the submarine forces was completely depleted, and now all of them are returning to the Mexican port base for replenishment.Two thousand aircraft flew at the same time, the first time in the history of human warfare.The Huaxing army fleet is also full of expectations and wants to witness this wonderful moment.As the Huaxing fleet continued to advance and assault, the hit rate of artillery shells became higher and higher.Once the shell weighing 500 catties hit the target, it directly burst into flames more than 10 meters high.The sound of the explosion was like the fury of thunder, as if it was about to tear the surface of the sea apart.The small ships of the American fleet, weighing two thousand tons, simply could not withstand such bombardment.Once hit by several shells, the ship was quickly destroyed and killed.After the billowing smoke, it was quickly swallowed by the sea."
Hold on, hold on" Robert Kunz didn't expect the speed of the Huaxing warship to be so fast, it was twice as fast as theirs.At the same time that the Huaxing warships were attacking the center line, the two wings of the American fleet were also quickly outflanked, but they were half a cut behind the Huaxing army.At this rate, it is very likely that the Huaxing Army will break through the defenses of the middle line.Now on all sides of the defensive zone of the central line, there are billowing gunpowder smoke and explosions.The battleships were sunk one by one by flying shells, and they could only be beaten passively, and the beads of sweat on Robert Kunz's head were in a hurry.At this time, the roar of engines in the sky attracted Robert Kunz's attention.The roar was so shocking that the heart twitched a little at this time, and it had to attract people's eyes to the sky.Robert Kunz was directing the ship to orient the telescope upwards, and a shocking scene happened.At an altitude of several hundred meters, black dots kept flying towards the battlefield.It felt like facing a swarm of locusts, black and oppressive, making people feel suffocated at first glance."
Air raid, air raid, all ships are on air defense alert" Robert Kunz hissed into the microphone and immediately ordered the captain to sound the air defense alarm.The American fleet can also be considered to have absorbed the disadvantages of the air defense of various countries in the Great War in Europe.An anti-aircraft machine gun has been developed, and the firing height can already reach more than a thousand meters.When the dark shadows in the sky were getting closer and closer, the anti-aircraft machine guns of the American ships all opened fire, and the bullets instantly shrouded the high altitude of the battlefield like a beaded curtain
