The Road to National Restoration that Began at the End of the Century

Chapter 215: Inescapable Fate

As a naval weapon, fish, whether launched from a ship or thrown from the air, has always been regarded by military experts as an ocean killer. It is precisely because of the birth of fish that the history of small boats not being able to beat large ships has been completely rewritten, and large ships have been equipped with various dual-purpose small guns or medium-caliber flat-fire guns as necessary defense measures since then to prevent some small speedboats from using fish for close-range "hand-to-hand combat".

Therefore, the pig-headed captain Daoshun Okami, who witnessed his partner's battleship being blown into three sections, felt bitter.

He couldn't save his partner, especially when his battleship was chased by three fish in a row, forcing him to steer the helm to dodge.

Boom!

It must be said that even if the fish was triggered by the waves it crossed, it would produce a large splash of water. However, the impact of the explosion in the water still caused his ship to shake violently, and he even suspected that there were already countless places on his ship where the armor had been dented, and even a large number of cracks were constantly poured into the hull.

But even if he wants to sink now, he can't sink here. He must at least drive to the beach near the landing site of the Krulod Empire army.

Because on the beach, he can let the ship run aground, and let the turrets on the ship continue to project strong enough firepower to those brown-skinned Japanese people with black hair and red eyes.

But the problem now is that he has not successfully found the enemy's submarine traces. As for the Haiyi amphibious fighters and the Taidao frigates that were originally operating with him, the former will participate in the offensive and defensive battles on the beach first, and the latter...

Alas!

The water left by the navy of the Krulod Empire has turned them into fish reefs under the sea.

These Japanese people like to throw all kinds of things to the soldiers of the Akizu Empire.

That's right.

In order to delay the advance of the Akizu Empire as much as possible, the Krulod Empire, which was previously at a disadvantage, used the ground and the water in the sea as one of the things that the soldiers of the Akizu Empire hated very much.

Especially when they approached for demolition, these would suddenly explode violently.

No need to ask.

Behind the scenes, they were all wirelessly controlled by monitors.

Unless they were destroyed by bombardment from a distance, there was absolutely no time-saving and labor-saving way to deal with these dangerous guys that were basically impossible to find at a glance, and most of them were still buried in the ground or half-submerged in the water.

So, these troops who were supposed to support the beach attack and defense battle in the first time were unable to reach the beach where the battle was in full swing. At the same time, as the last battleship that could continue to fight, Daoshun gritted his teeth and played a good game of hunting each other with the submarines lurking under the sea after the missile offensive ended.

Although his battleship did not have any fish launchers, and even did not have a small reconnaissance aircraft that could drop depth charges.

But he had rocket depth charges and a simplified large-scale depth charge that could be pushed directly into the sea.

Daoshun himself was helpless. A battleship did not have a fish launcher, and only various guns were used as the main combat weapons.

What did the officials above think?

And even if it was a cannon, after the baptism of the missile rain just now, he found that the 156 anti-aircraft wave energy machine guns and 24 medium-caliber high- and low-level dual-purpose rapid-fire cannons on his ship could not serve as a shield against aerial targets.

The air defense and anti-submarine capabilities were too poor.

At the same time, he also realized a bigger problem, why none of them could see the trajectory of the fish, and could only rely on the most complex sonar to determine what was under the sea.

However, there were a lot of fish under the sea, and the fish of the Krullod Empire could be mixed in the fish school and quietly kill in front of him. For this reason, he understood why the navy of the Akitsu Empire could beat the Krullod Empire's naval ships and make them afraid to go out to sea at the beginning of the war, but did not sink a submarine that often lurked under the sea during the war.

In terms of submarine use and fish technology, the Akitsu Empire is not as good as the Krullod Empire.

Now it is difficult, very difficult, and beyond imagination for him to drive the general battleship to the beachhead. In particular, he was very confident that the other party's submarine was likely to continue preparing the next fish, giving him a fatal blow like a heavy hammer.

Moreover, the fact that his partner was blown into three sections and quickly sank into the sea has proved that the fish of the other party's submarine is definitely a heavy fish with a caliber of more than 500 mm and an absolutely outrageous amount of explosives.

The Japanese and Mai people these days are really cruel. Seeing that he is driving a battleship that is more than 200 meters long and has a displacement of more than 50,000 tons, they are ready for a big gift package, right?

It's time to show off his skills!

Even if his original fleet only has one general battleship like himself, he must complete the task. Otherwise, none of his men will survive, waiting for everyone to go into the sea to feed the fish.

Only by taking this opportunity to run to a place close to the land as soon as possible can he let everyone escape alive.

However, compared with the arrogance of the other party who fired three consecutive missiles to blow up a battleship before, Daoshun now feels that the other party's lurking ability is very strong.

At least his men fired three main gun shells in the direction of the previous fish.

It was useless.

The opponent did not show up, and there was no trace to be found.

Is this called a match for the opponent?

And now he maintained a zigzag trajectory, that is to prevent the opponent from continuing to use fish to attack him again...

"Fish! There are two fish on the left!"

Obviously, Daoshun, who was being hunted, finally heard a "good news".

The fish still rushed towards him at a speed of 46.3 kilometers, and it was the opponent's attack that he found that the opponent was actually less than 1,000 meters away from him.

What's worse is that there is no gun on his battleship with a sufficient depression angle to counterattack the submarine that is constantly approaching him and the two fish that are coming at a rapid speed.

In other words, he now needs to find a way to avoid these two heavy fish with a length of at least 6 meters, a caliber of no less than 500 mm, and a weight of more than 1 ton.

The consequences of taking one are no joke.

He witnessed Anghui's fate with his own eyes, and also witnessed the scene of his entire battleship being blown to pieces.

So, turn right!

Heading towards the shore!

But avoiding fish is not an easy task, especially when Daoshun is driving a steel behemoth with a displacement of more than 50,000 tons and a maneuverability that is completely inferior to that of a speedboat.

Thanks to the previous wave of missiles, the general battleship driven by Daoshun has a speed of only 33.3 kilometers per hour. In terms of speed, Daoshun is very clear that he is no match for the fish, not to mention that there is smoke everywhere on his ship, and the crew is still putting out fires and repairing everywhere.

In short, Daoshun now hates the officials above very much. Why don't they equip their battleships with weapons that can deal with submarines, such as fish launchers or deep-diving missile launchers?

Without the protection of other ships, the battleships that can't stand alone are not opponents of submarines that are well prepared.

Especially when the submarines of the Krurod Empire can hide in various ways and are equipped with heavy torpedoes to deal with themselves. However, even if he tried his best to turn the rudder, he found that the two fish seemed to turn according to their direction of travel.

Could it be the rumored tracking fish?

This thing is rarer than ordinary straight-flying fish, and it is not easy to appear in naval battles.

But this is a battlefield. Which soldier will give up taking it out to eliminate more important enemies because of the high cost of weapons and equipment?

Stop talking nonsense. It is the internationally accepted rule to destroy the enemy and maintain one's own combat power.

"The interception buoy has been released!"

Very good.

In order to prevent being caught by the fish, the scapegoat must be there.

Boom!

The problem is that there is time to release the first interception buoy, and the second fish is rushing towards him normally. In this regard, Daoshun really...

"Ah... Ah..."

Boom!

With the collective shouts of the crew at the stern, the second fish hit the battleship that did not have time to complete the turn. The impact of the explosion made the stern jump up...
