Chapter 474: First Battle Victory
"Shoot down all their planes. We can't let these planes fly recklessly over our heads."
"Shoot, shoot quickly, shoot down all their planes."
"This bunch of Tubalu want to run rampant over our heads, but they are simply not strong enough."
"We need to let these local guerrillas know that we can easily kill them."
These little Japs are already panicking.
There are very few anti-aircraft guns on warships.
They hoped to use this kind of inefficient anti-aircraft gun to shoot down all the planes in the sky, but that was simply impossible.
"Damn it! What the hell is going on with the artillery? The Eighth Route Army's planes are circling right over our heads."
"Their shells are hitting the open ground."
"These idiots, are they blind? The plane is right in front of them and their anti-aircraft guns can't hit it at all."
"The plane is coming towards us."
"Damn it! I really want to kill all those artillerymen. I have never seen such stupid people."
"Oh no, oh no, these planes are coming towards us, and these planes have torpedoes on them.
We are doomed this time.”
Everyone was terrified and at a loss.
These little Japanese soldiers were all scared to death.
These Japanese soldiers who set out from Dalian Port originally thought that they could win this battle.
Before setting off, these little Japanese soldiers were all excited and full of ambition.
In the eyes of these little devils, they were able to defeat China's navy decades ago.
Now they are still able to defeat China's navy.
However, things went against their wishes, and the Japanese had never expected that their anti-aircraft guns had not hit a single plane so far.
Abilities like these are simply not enough to fight against Wang Tianyou's army.
Wang Tianyou's plane took the lead and rushed forward quickly.
Whoosh! Two sounds.
Two torpedoes fell from the sky.
This little Japanese guy has no idea what to do.
They were all terrified.
"The enemy has launched a torpedo at us. How can we just stand here?"
"Hurry up and find a way to escape. Leave here quickly. Otherwise, all of us will die."
"Run quickly, or you'll be finished."
"I never thought our anti-aircraft artillery was so rubbish, and even our commander has no way to deal with it."
Many Japanese soldiers no longer knew what to do.
At this moment, two torpedoes hit the front of the cruiser directly.
Accompanied by two deafening explosions.
A hole several dozen meters long was blown out in the front of the cruiser.
Torpedoes hitting the front of a warship are extremely rare in the history of naval warfare.
Most warships are able to adjust their direction quickly when they spot a torpedo coming.
However, this cruiser did not adjust its direction at all.
The main gun is located directly above the front of the warship.
There is an ammunition depot connected below the main gun.
Many Japanese soldiers were transporting ammunition at all costs.
Because the caliber of the main gun is too large.
The shells had to be transported by vehicles.
The Japanese didn't have special vehicles to transport artillery shells, so they laid tracks from the ammunition depot all the way to the main turret.
Whether it is the large-caliber shells of the main turret, anti-aircraft shells, or even torpedoes.
These high explosives filled the entire runway.
When the two torpedoes exploded violently right in front, they blew away the Japanese main turret on the spot.
Dozens of heavy bombs in the main turret were detonated.
This kind of heavy bomb weighs more than one ton.
Even a small-caliber shell weighs about half a ton.
This type of artillery shell is extremely powerful, and the explosion of each shell can cause severe casualties within a radius of hundreds of square meters.
The main turret is a confined space.
There is also an enclosed space under the main turret.
This makes the shell explode more violently.
The shock wave of the explosion gathered rapidly in a short period of time.
These shock waves rushed from the bow to the stern of the ship.
Many Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces on the spot, with their limbs and arms flying everywhere. Their flesh and blood were everywhere.
And below the Japanese warship, the rumbling sound of explosions went from the rails all the way to the ammunition tubes.
There was another violent explosion in the ammunition depot.
The ammunition depot contained hundreds of tons of shells and torpedoes.
These shells and torpedoes explode with greater power.
Especially those mines.
The Japanese are definitely good at making mines.
The mines laid by the Japanese in the sea weighed two or three tons.
This type of mine usually floats on the water.
If an ordinary small boat encounters a mine, it will not detonate the mine.
However, large ships, whether warships or cargo ships, will explode quickly after encountering these mines.
A two-ton mine can easily destroy a 10,000-ton ship.
There were twenty or thirty mines in the Japanese warship.
One can imagine the power of these mines when they explode.
A rumbling explosion sounded in the Japanese ammunition depot, and next to the ammunition depot was the Japanese fuel depot.
There are large amounts of fuel oil and coal stored in the fuel depot.
The explosion at this time became more violent, and flames shot up into the sky in an instant, and all the flames instantly engulfed the cruiser.
Wang Tianyou was very excited after seeing it.
"Did everyone see it? The first battle was a success. Two torpedoes destroyed a cruiser."
"Brothers, stop dithering. Blast them hard.
These Japanese warships have come out, so we can’t let them go back.”
Now is the right time to bomb the Japanese warships, as they have already sailed to the open sea.
Even if all these Japanese warships were sunk, they would not be able to affect the port at all.
Fighter planes rushed over quickly, and torpedoes swam towards the Japanese warships like underwater ghosts.
The Russian torpedoes are extremely powerful.
These old Russians loaded their torpedoes with plenty of explosives when they produced them.
Each torpedo is loaded with hundreds of tons of powerful TNT explosives.
This makes the torpedo extremely powerful when it explodes.
Not only that, the Russians also equipped their torpedoes with high-power engines, making these torpedoes move faster than those of the Japanese.
Japs, the warships behind us are lined up in a long snake formation.
The reason why the Japanese navy likes to form a long snake formation is not for any other reason, but because they have used the long snake formation in most of the battles they have fought.
This enabled the Japanese navy to win in the vast majority of naval battles.
In the battle against the Chinese Navy in 1895, the Japanese used a single column against the Chinese Navy's single horizontal column.
