The sky-blocking bomber group once again appeared over the British fleet, but what was different from last time was that the bombers this time carried enough bombs. There was no need to even use heavy bombs to deal with these destroyers. The British Navy's ocean-going
The destroyers either sank into the Atlantic Ocean or were hiding in the military port in Toulon, France. The only ones left in the country were small destroyers of several hundred tons. A single 50-kilogram aerial bomb on such a small boat could cause fatal damage.
The standard carrying capacity of an Eagle is four such bombs.
Facing the British destroyers on the sea below, two hundred Eagle fighter-bombers swooped down like boobies preying on sardines. Amidst the counterattack fire, they bravely dived to a height of several hundred meters, and then dropped bombs one after another.
The deadly bomb flew away with the roar of falling bombs.
The sailors on the British destroyers were shooting wildly into the sky with all the weapons they could find. Tracer bullets from anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns intertwined into a terrifying fire net in the sky, just as bombers fell one after another with thick smoke.
At the same time, a damaged destroyer on the sea began to sink slowly with flames, and the battle between the sky and the sea quickly turned into a brutal bloody battle.
However, the two sides in this bloody battle were not equal, because at the same time that the carrier-based aircraft began to attack, the battleships that were sailing out of the minefield also joined the battle. Among these battleships, battlecruisers, and heavy cruisers equipped with radar fire control systems
, under the intensive firepower of the light cruiser, those small destroyers of several hundred tons were as helpless as lambs.
Major Cunningham commanded his Bellona to rush towards a battlecruiser in the distance like crazy. This ocean-going destroyer of more than 1,000 tons can already be regarded as a capital ship in the current British Navy. It carries six torpedoes.
The Bellona with its launch tube was like a dexterous cat, dodging shells that could easily tear it into pieces. At the same time, it had to be careful of the carrier-based aircraft swooping down overhead, but even so, excellent navigation
Technology still allows him to command his beloved ship to move closer to the enemy.
On the battlecruiser Kaihuang of the Royal Navy of China in the distance, Captain Li Guotang looked at this heroic destroyer with great interest. So far, this destroyer has dodged six bombs and five rounds of 280 main guns.
In addition to the amazing luck in salvo shooting, the captain's skills are definitely worthy of admiration.
Of course, Major Cunningham's bravery and technical level can only provide some entertainment to the officers on the Kaihuang. Then it will enter the range of the 152 secondary guns. There are two guns on each side of the Kaihuang.
The triple 152 gun turret can fire more than a hundred shells per minute at targets within 20 kilometers. It would be a fantasy to say that this destroyer can escape such an interception.
What's more, there are four 105mm single-barrel guns that can join the interception within 15 kilometers, and there are ten double 37-guns within 10 kilometers. It can be said that any warship that enters this distance will only die, like hitting China.
The torpedo boat No. 1 was a complete miracle. If such a miracle happened again, the luck of the British could be described as unbelievable.
"Oh my God, the seventh round of bombardment is here. If this destroyer can survive, I will definitely treat its captain to a drink." An officer nearby exclaimed.
In addition, Italy must formally and publicly declare its withdrawal from the Allied Powers group and declare war on all the Allied Powers as soon as the peace treaty is signed.
This is just a meaning. Everyone knows the combat effectiveness of Italy. Their remaining troops will never have the guts to attack the US-British coalition forces in Serbia. However, the Italians can still make a huge contribution to the Allies, because with their
defected, the logistical supply of the 300,000 US-British coalition forces was completely cut off. This elite army, which was going all out to hit Budapest, completely relied on the railway supply through Italy. Once the railway was cut off, let alone ammunition, it would be food.
None, and the hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers in Thessaloniki and the more than two million Chinese and Austrian allied forces across the Bosporus will never let go of the opportunity to retake Istanbul. Once this hole is opened, the Allies will be gone.
The meaning of continuing the war.
The news of Italy's defection was broadcast to the whole world through People's Radio. The countries of Britain, Russia and France, who were struggling to support themselves, were shocked. No one expected that the Italians were so shameless. Although they could not fight, they could still contain them to some extent.
They were part of the Allied forces, so even though they were repeatedly held back, out of the feeling of being in the same boat, the people of the Allied Powers did not have a strong objection to them. But now they actually stabbed them in the back, especially at this most difficult time, it is difficult not to generate hatred.
For a time, the entire Allied Powers cursed, humiliated, and even attacked Italy in various countries. It seemed that there was a sense of hysteria. Not only were Italian businessmen in these three countries without exception, they were beaten and looted, and even
Even the Italian Embassy in London was set on fire by angry Londoners, and even the Italian ambassador was burned to death inside. Since then, Italy has become the most despised country in Europe.
Of course, this is not a big deal to the Savoy family and the Italian government. They had already thought of this result before doing this. Compared with the benefits gained from risking their face, compared with the ridicule of others, embracing Emperor Yang's lap is the most important thing.
The most important thing is that with such a big tree, the future of the Savoy family is saved. What's wrong with being scolded a few times? The throne is saved. The most important thing is that the two billion yuan loan is obtained. With this
Not only is the money available for the first compensation, but even preliminary reconstruction funds are available. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
