Chapter 1407: Lifting a fortress is like peeling off paper (Third update, please subscribe)
The sound of "chichi" echoed in the air.
This is the sound made by the friction between the tail fin and the air when the bomb's tail fin cuts through the air.
Although this sound is harsh, it is a very common sound on the battlefield. Mortar shells will also make a similar sound when they fall.
However, the sound today is different from the past. It is getting louder and harsher, and the sound is getting closer. Suddenly, just when people thought he was about to fall.
Suddenly there was an explosion in the sky.
The deafening explosion even made people wonder if a bomb had exploded in the air!
Not an explosion!
It's the "sonic boom" sound that a giant bomb makes when its speed exceeds the speed of sound!
More than ten years ago, in view of the devastating blow caused by heavy aerial bombs to fortresses during the Turkish War, countries around the world began to fortify fortresses. In order to withstand bombing from the air and artillery bombardment, fortresses were generally made of steel up to one meter thick.
Even the top of the fortress is reinforced with more than two meters of reinforced concrete, which is enough to be immune to the heavy aerial bombs of the imperial military. In order to destroy the increasingly solid fortress, the imperial aerospace force commissioned a company to design a "super bomb capable of destroying any fortress."
Since the shell of ordinary aerial bombs was too thin to penetrate the bunker, technicians worked directly on the shell. So they designed an armor-piercing aerial bomb with a thick cast steel shell, which can completely smash into the bunker by inertia.
But even so, it still cannot meet the needs of the military. After all, a 2,500-kilogram armor-piercing aerial bomb can only rely on inertia to smash through a mere 2-meter-thick reinforced concrete. It is not powerful enough. What the military needs is "enough to destroy anything."
Fortress' Super Bomb".
At the request of the military, imperial scientific researchers applied the latest aerodynamic principles to aerial bombs to increase the falling speed of aerial bombs. Ordinary bombs have an average aerodynamic shape, and due to the influence of air resistance, the terminal falling speed is generally only sub-second.
The speed of sound. However, the super bomb with an optimized shape has a terminal falling speed exceeding the speed of sound due to its super large tonnage of 5.5 tons and excellent aerodynamic shape.
The new super bomb has a total length of 6.4 meters, a diameter of 97 centimeters, and contains 2358.68 kilograms of explosives. Its power can be imagined. Its strong shell and the falling speed of the end exceeding the speed of sound give it strong penetrating power.
This is the first time a super bomb has been put into battle.
The bomb, which was more than six meters long, looked like a huge stick. It fell from an altitude of 5,000 meters. When it was a thousand meters away from the ground, it was accompanied by a loud sound that broke the speed of sound, and everyone on the ground was shocked.
Startled.
However, for the Americans who were hiding from the bombing in the fortress, they had no idea what the loud noise meant.
The moment the roaring super bomb hit the ground, it directly penetrated the nearly two-meter-thick reinforced concrete top of the fortress. After smashing into the interior of the fortress, it continued to smash through the internal floor without losing its strength.
to a depth of more than ten meters underground.
When the bomb penetrated the fortress, the American officers and soldiers in the fortress were all startled by the violent impact. When they realized that the fortress had been "smashed" through, they did not wait for any reaction.
Suddenly, like a volcano erupting, a huge cloud of smoke burst out from the ground of the fortress. In the violent explosion, even the mountains were shaken. Amidst the earth-shattering noise, the fortress was like paper.
Generally, the entire fortress was lifted up. After this explosion, when the earth trembled like an earthquake, there was another violent explosion, and the entire fortress was directly lifted up. In the violent explosion, the explosion point
The nearby underground arsenal was also detonated. The moment hundreds of tons of artillery shells and gunpowder exploded, the entire fortress was blown away!
Even the twelve-inch cannon in the fortress was blown hundreds of meters into the air in the explosion.
The violent explosion even caused a weak earthquake. Not only was the fortress completely razed to the ground, it turned into a huge crater.
Even the imperial soldiers who were in close contact with each other suffered additional damage in the explosion - because the explosion was so powerful, the eardrums of many soldiers in nearby positions were shattered, and some even had their ears and noses shaken by the violent shock wave and loud noise.
bleed.
However, compared to those Americans, they were undoubtedly lucky. Those American officers and soldiers who were avoiding the bombing in the fortress did not even understand what was going on, and were turned into dust together with the masonry and soil in the violent explosion.
They didn't even leave any body fragments. They were mixed into thousands of tons of earth and rocks, and a huge crater turned into a grave for thousands of American soldiers. They died silently.
Amidst the smoke, Li Gangqiang and his comrades stared dumbfounded at the disappeared fortress. Once upon a time, this fortress was an insurmountable obstacle. He and his comrades were even prepared to risk their lives to capture it.
, they are full of passion and are willing to sacrifice! They are willing to pay!
But what about now?
What did they see when their ears and noses were shocked and bleeding?
It's destruction!
A sturdy fortress that cost millions of dollars to build was easily destroyed like this!
Even now, Li Gangqiang and his comrades are still a little confused. They simply can't believe it all.
After all, this is too incredible.
After a long time, Li Gangqiang murmured to himself.
"Destroy, destroy the heaven and earth, that's all!"
However, no one around him could hear what he was saying. Almost everyone's ears were shocked. With only tinnitus in their ears, they couldn't hear clearly what their comrades were saying...
On the hilltop at the rear, Xu Yangzhi, the commander of the 53rd Regiment, opened his eyes wide in shock, his lips slightly opened, and he could not even speak.
"This, what is this? Is it "Thor's Hammer"?"
The so-called "Thor's Hammer" is the collective name for 1800kg and 2500kg aerial bombs.
"Certainly not!"
Sun Haoze affirmed.
"The bomb dropped by the airship is definitely not "Quake", because it is too powerful, far more powerful than "Quake". When we were in the military academy, we watched the documentary film "Quake"... No
Could cause such an explosion..."
Staring at the huge mushroom cloud, Sun Haoze pursed his lips and said.
"Oh my God, if we keep dropping bombs like this, then this battle will definitely not have to be fought! Fortress Grant... is simply vulnerable..."
Xu Zhiyang, who was still grinning from ear to ear in surprise, said after a long time.
"Toppling a giant city is like ripping off a piece of paper...With such a bomb, the so-called Grant's Fortress is worth mentioning..."
What is the so-called Grant's Fort? It was a fortress built by the Americans on the Pacific coast and in the west to block imperial attacks.
Xu Zhiyang shook his head and sighed.
"Now, I even have some sympathy for those American soldiers. They...have no idea what they are going to face."
When he said these words, Xu Zhiyang raised his head and looked towards the sky. At this time, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the blue sky and white clouds were exceptionally transparent. The sky... the sky belonged to Ming Dynasty. As long as the sky was mastered, Ming Dynasty would definitely win this... A war.
"It's death!"
Sun Haoze sneered.
"Unless they surrender, death awaits them!"
