Chapter 988 Shelling Aircraft Carriers
More than 100,000 people in the Nine Corps besieged the 1st Marine Division, and its impact is quite huge. When the US military discovered that it might encounter major losses, it immediately arranged for its withdrawal from the battlefield. To accomplish this task, the US military mobilized a huge naval fleet.
When Zhou Qingfeng drove his IS-7 to the seaside of Xingnan Port and crossed the Chengchuan River with the help of the frozen river in winter, he immediately saw dozens of warships floating on the sea under the moonlight.
"What a huge navy! It's really enviable." Zhou Qingfeng had to sigh about this. The Yankees' navy is strong enough to slap the world, even when the bear is in its heyday.
I just sighed back and sighed. After recognizing the model of the ship a little, Zhou Qingfeng stared at several flat-topped ships floating on the sea-the US aircraft carrier.
There were seven aircraft carriers outside the Southport when the war was most tense, and now Zhou Qingfeng sees three. It is impossible to distinguish the specific port number in the night, but this does not prevent him from immediately targeting the enemy aircraft carrier as his first goal tonight.
Killing US aircraft carriers is probably the biggest dream of all Chinese military fans in the future. Think of the super warships that are arrogant and powerful, and the PLA Navy is really envious and jealous. And now Zhou Qingfeng has the opportunity to give these behemoths a few shots.
The naval gun is based on the warship, and its power, range, and rate of fire at the same caliber far exceed that of the army artillery. The IS-7 artillery was modified from the naval gun. Although it is not as powerful as the original naval gun, it can still easily obtain a range of more than ten kilometers.
The warships parked on the sea are the most ideal artillery targets. Zhou Qingfeng could n’t restrain the excitement in his heart, and immediately ordered the aircraft carrier on the sea to measure the distance. Three tanks correspond to three aircraft carriers, which is just right.
Although the firepower of IS-7 is powerful, it is obviously impossible to directly kill tens of thousands of tons of aircraft carriers. But as long as a few holes can be smashed in the deck of the aircraft carrier, it is enough for these big guys to go back to repair for a few months. At this time, the intensity of the US air strikes will definitely drop significantly.
Know that this is of great benefit to the Nine Corps of Volunteers, who are stuck in a bitter battle. However, this blow is going to be fatal, you can't easily hit a few boats. So Zhou Qingfeng shouted his fast column and told them two things.
The first thing is to separate a company to attack the Lianpu Airport west of Xingnan Port. This airport has a large number of transport planes and fighter planes. Responsible for leading the way is the US frontline aviation controller who has been pulled into the thief ship by Zhou Qingfeng.
The second thing is that the remaining two companies crossed the frozen river and entered Xingnan Port for destruction, and incidentally attacked the US artillery positions in the port from behind, opening a gap for the subsequent advancement of troops. While two things were going on, it was natural that the three IS-7s that had completed the ranging kept firing.
"Perform our mission according to our plan." Zhou Qingfeng dispatched the people in the fast column, but knew that more than 300 people in this team were afraid that most of them would be killed or injured in the next battle. The number of troops far exceeds them.
No one complained. Everyone obediently obeyed the order, and the vehicles of the rapid column left in turn and ran to their respective goals. Zhou Qingfeng once again contacted the two regiments in the rear who were beating the third division of the US military, informing them to quickly keep up and see if they could rush into Xingnan Port for a fortune.
"Prepare a semi-armor-piercing grenade." Zhou Qingfeng ordered, including a total of seven rounds on the bore and the rack. Later, it will be seven burst shots, and strive to hit the strongest firepower in a short time. And the semi-armor-piercing grenades have certain armor-piercing capabilities, but do n’t know if they can penetrate the deck of the aircraft carrier?
"Range measurement is about 7.4 kilometers. Use high-throw trajectories to lift the aircraft carrier's take-off deck." Zhou Qingfeng gives the approximate distance with binoculars, and the tank's optical range finder gives similar numbers, electromechanical The ballistic computer is solved, and the fire control elements are manually set and input.
Zhou Qingfeng took control of the entire column through the radio until everything was ready, he took a deep breath and shouted: "Let's fire!"
Boom ..., three IS-7s on the coast raised the muzzle high, and the thick main gun spewed a few meters of orange flame at night. In order to shoot long-range targets, the bombardment uses full charge and strives for maximum power.
At this moment, Major General Smith just landed on the aircraft carrier ‘Wright’ by helicopter. This is an ‘Essex’ class aircraft carrier and the most powerful combat weapon in the world.
The Major General has just stepped on the deck, and the marines on the ship are approaching to meet, and at this time ... the shelling is coming!
At a distance of more than seven kilometers, the sound of the bombardment can be reached in less than half a minute, but the dazzling shelling fire is very obvious. A large number of people across the sea saw this scene, and Major General Smith was also surprised.
However, the second glare followed, followed by the third and fourth shots. The 130-mm cannonball traveled nearly three times faster than the speed of sound propagation. When the third cannon was ejected into the bore, the first cannonball had been fired in a parabolic trajectory and landed accurately on the 'Wright' On the main deck.
"Be careful of shelling!" The heavy artillery came, and Major General Smith finally woke up to what the dazzling light on the coast was. He shouted loudly to try to remind the people on the deck, but the personnel on the aircraft carrier felt inexplicable. No one thought that this seemingly quiet night was hiding the killer.
A loud noise burst on the "Wright", and a hot erupting flame appeared on the flight deck less than forty millimeters thick. This flame emerged from under the deck, releasing its power in the form of a splash.
Unlike later generation aircraft carriers equipped with jet fighters, propeller fighters take off from the ‘Essex’ class aircraft carrier, and their deck thickness is really limited. The semi-armor-piercing grenades exploded through the armor and entered the hangar of the next floor to explode, and the narrow space encouraged its fierce power.
At the moment, the flight deck is preparing to take off the night flight fighter, and fuel and ammunition are placed on the deck. The violent explosion caused the aircrew on the deck to die. They still did not know where the explosion came from, but immediately shouted: "Pushing ammunition into the sea, the deck is not safe."
At this time, it was too late to say that the IS-7 with the semi-automatic loader has already shelled seven rounds, and the shells began to land on the huge aircraft carrier deck in less than ten seconds. Such a big goal is really difficult to miss.
When Zhou Qingfeng'sIS-7 cleared seven shells, it immediately ordered the driver to leave the shelling position. The pilot asked him: "The platoon leader, don't you often say that you have to face the U.S. forces directly, don't you counsel? We are also naval guns, keep fighting!"
Zhou Qingfeng ’s sudden seven tips smoked and shouted loudly: "Fool, when did I say this? Hurry up and run for me, the retaliatory shelling of the US convoy warship will come."
While Zhou Qingfeng was quickly avoiding the unstable turret, fireworks exploded suddenly on the distant sea, shining on the night sky. Suddenly a huge ball of fire appeared on a distant aircraft carrier, which can be clearly seen without binoculars.
No sound was heard for the time being at the beach. Zhou Qingfeng only looked at the distant fireball coldly, as if the burning clouds mapped the night sky, and also reflected on his face.
"What did we hit?" Zhou Qingfeng stared blankly, only after hearing the loud explosion from a distance more than twenty seconds later.
The air is shaking, the sea is boiling, and the bombs and aviation gasoline being loaded on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier ‘Wright’ have been detonated, and the fire is skyrocketing!
