"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron's Anti-aircraft Gun opened fire, and one after another, 127mm Anti-aircraft Gun took the lead in launching the attack.
The shells exploded in the air, leaving behind clouds of black smoke. Shrapnel shoots out, attacking surrounding targets.
The Anti-aircraft Gun bomb used at this time was still a delayed fuze. The shell will not explode until it reaches a certain height. Therefore, the power of Anti-aircraft Gun is naturally not as powerful as that of Proximity fuze after its invention.
German carrier-based aircraft group has dispersed, and the BF-109 fighter jets, one after another, use aviation machine guns and cannons to straf anti-aircraft fire, suppressing them and creating opportunities for Dive Bomber and Torpedo Bomber to attack.
"First attack the outer escort warships, and then attack the aircraft carrier!"
"Woo!" Four Dive Bomber launched an attack on a 'modified Fubuki-class' destroyer.
"Evade! Germany people's Aerial Bomb!" The sailors on the destroyer "Akatsuki" shouted loudly.
"Dong dong dong!" Although the Anti-aircraft Gun on the destroyer 'Akatsuki' was still firing wildly, it could not stop the four Dive Bomber.
Four heavy-duty Aerial Bomb hit the destroyer "Akatsuki" fiercely.
A heavy aviation Armor-piercing Shell hit the After Deck of the destroyer 'Akatsuki'.
"Boom!"
The bomb exploded, almost destroying the rear half of the destroyer 'Akatsuki'. Seawater poured into the ship through the loopholes. This destroyer, with a displacement of less than 2,000 tons, quickly sank into the sea.
Under the attack of German Navy's Carrier-based aircraft, the escort warships of Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron were sunk one after another.
Small warships like destroyers are almost completely powerless. Once hit, it means sinking. Light Cruiser and heavy cruisers cannot last long. Heavy aviation Armor-piercing Shell and heavy aviation Torpedo both pose fatal threats to them.
"Woo!"
Four Dive Bomber launched an attack on the heavy cruiser 'Chokai' belonging to Island Nation Navy.
A Dive Bomber was hit by a Anti-aircraft Gun shell while diving. It fell into the sea before it could release the bomb, and the pilot was killed on the spot.
But the other three Dive Bomber dropped bombs.
A Aerial Bomb hit the heavy cruiser 'Chokai', causing the heavy cruiser with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons to burst into flames.
"Baga!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo was on the aircraft carrier 'Ibuki', watching his own warships being severely damaged or sunk one after another, and his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Although, several aircraft carriers have not been attacked yet. However, he believed that when their escort warships suffered heavy losses, it would be the turn of these aircraft carriers. By then, the fate of these aircraft carriers will not be much better. Without the support of the anti-aircraft firepower of the escort warships, the huge flight deck of the aircraft carrier is nothing more than a target for the Carrier-based aircraft attacks of the Germany people.
"Your Excellency Commander, Carrier-based aircraft from Germany has begun to attack the 'Togakushi' number." Major General Ryunosuke Kusaka reported with a panicked look.
"Damn it!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo couldn't help but curse.
Through the telescope, Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo can clearly see that the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' has fallen into German Navy's Carrier-based aircraft's Encirclement Offensive. Groups of German Navy's Carrier-based aircraft are dropping bombs and Torpedo on the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'.
When the escort warships around the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' suffered heavy losses, German carrier-based aircraft group set its sights on this aircraft carrier.
"Dong dong dong!"
Although there are 22 twin-mounted 25mm Anti-aircraft Gun and 30 13.2mm anti-aircraft machine guns on the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'. But it still cannot prevent German Navy's Carrier-based aircraft attack.
"Woo!"
A shrill roar sounded, and eight Dive Bombers were diving and dropping bombs on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'.
The aircraft carrier 'Togakushi', with a displacement of nearly 40,000 tons, tried its best to evade, rushing left and right like a bison. However, it still cannot be avoided.
Eight Aerial Bomb hit the flight deck of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' at an almost vertical angle. Three of the bombs fell into the sea, but the remaining five bombs hit the flight deck of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'.
Although the flight deck of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' has a layer of 38 mm thick armor. But under the heavy attack of Aerial Bomb, it still couldn't resist and was easily penetrated.
Aerial Bomb penetrated the flight deck and exploded in the hangar. The violent explosion left the entire hangar in a mess. At the same time, a raging fire broke out.
The damage control personnel on the aircraft carrier immediately began to think of ways to put out the fire. However, the fire was very large, and it was undoubtedly very difficult to put out the fire and prevent it from spreading.
What's even worse is that German carrier-based aircraft group's attack is not over yet.
Another eight Dive Bomber launched an attack on the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'. At the same time, four Torpedo Bomber also took the opportunity to coordinate operations.
This time, the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' only dodged four Aerial Bombs. The other four Aerial Bombs hit again, further aggravating the injuries of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi'.
Four Torpedo Bomber also dropped four 533mm Heavy Torpedo. When evading Aerial Bomb, the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' cannot evade Torpedo at the same time. As a result, three of the four airlines Torpedo achieved hits. The 152mm waterline armor of the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' was easily blown open with big holes. A large amount of seawater poured into the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' crazily.
Under the fierce attack of German carrier-based aircraft group, the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' was continuously hit and soon died.
"Your Excellency Commander, the damage to the 'Togakushi' is too severe, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold on anymore!" Major General Ryunosuke Kusaka looked sad. This is Island Nation Navy's main aircraft carrier! Losing one means losing one.
"Let the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' abandon the ship! Other escort warships will be added to the surroundings of the other three aircraft carriers." Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo ordered. He did this obviously because he wanted to preserve the other three aircraft carriers as much as possible.
After the order to abandon the ship was issued, the aircraft carrier 'Togakushi' seemed to have given up resistance and allowed German carrier-based aircraft group to launch an attack. Soon, the aircraft carrier, with a displacement of nearly 40,000 tons, sank into the sea because it was too seriously damaged and took in too much water.
