Chapter 817: Complete Victory over the Fuso Fleet
After confirming that the Stuka formation had caused effective damage to the battleship Royal Palace, the fleet leader quickly adjusted the communication channel and reported the results of the battle to his superior commander Guo Yuhang.
"Reporting to Colonel Kuo, the Stuka formation has completed its mission and caused significant damage to the superstructure of the enemy battleship Royal Palace. The initial assessment is that the enemy's defense system has been severely damaged."
After receiving this exciting news, Guo Yuhang showed a satisfied smile on his face. He was well aware of the impact of this blow on the morale and combat effectiveness of the enemy fleet, but at the same time he kept a cool head and quickly thought about the next move.
He picked up the microphone and issued new instructions in a steady and powerful voice: "Captain of the formation, the mission was accomplished very well! Now I order you to return immediately, ensure a safe landing and prepare for the next mission. At the same time, the battleship Bemes listens to my order, immediately adjusts its course, launches artillery fire on the enemy fleet, and uses our superior firepower to further weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness."
As Guo Yuhang's order was issued, the Stuka formation began to adjust its flight posture in an orderly manner and prepare to return.
On the other hand, after receiving Guo Yuhang's order, the battleship Bimax immediately entered combat status. The gunners on the ship quickly took their positions, staring at the enemy fleet in the distance, with their shells ready. With the captain's order, the huge muzzle spewed out dazzling flames, and the deafening sound of the guns echoed on the sea. The shells cut through the sky like angry fire dragons, and landed accurately around the enemy fleet, setting off huge water columns and explosions.
Following Guo Yuhang's order, the main gun of the battleship Bemes roared and spit out angry flames, and huge shells streaked through the sky and headed straight for the enemy fleet. One of the shells was like a precise messenger of death, accurately hitting the side of an enemy Yubari-class destroyer.
Instantly, the Yubari-class destroyer seemed to be grasped by an invisible giant hand, and the entire hull shook violently. The huge impact force generated by the explosion of the shell instantly tore through the destroyer's armor, and flames and thick smoke gushed out violently from the explosion point, as if the gates of hell were suddenly opened.
The fragments of the explosion were like sharp blades, raging on the destroyer's deck, cutting through anything that stood in their way. The sailors on board were frightened by the sudden disaster and fled in all directions. Their exclamations and shouts mixed with the roar of gunfire, forming a tragic and chaotic picture.
The hull of the Yubari-class destroyer began to tilt under the impact of the explosion, and seawater quickly poured into the ship from the damaged armor belt, exacerbating the instability of the hull. The ship's artillery lost balance and tilted from side to side, and could no longer launch an effective counterattack. Although the commander on the bridge tried hard to stabilize the situation, his efforts seemed so small and powerless in the face of such a huge disaster.
Seeing this, the surrounding friendly ships increased their support for the battleship, and poured more fire on the enemy fleet. The enemy fleet's morale was greatly damaged by the encounter with the Yubari-class destroyer, and the command system became even more chaotic.
In this smoke-filled sea, the battleship Bemis's shot not only demonstrated its powerful firepower and precise strike capability, but also won valuable combat advantages for the entire fleet.
Under the precise command of Guo Yuhang, the elite forces of the North Sea Fleet - 12 Königsberg-class light cruisers, 12 Admiral Scheer-class armored ships and 6 Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruisers, like a pack of hungry wolves, launched a fierce and orderly offensive against the Fuso Fleet. On the sea, the steel bodies of the warships shone with a cold light in the sun, and the flames from the muzzles cut through the sky, dyeing the entire sea with a strong color of war.
"Attention, all ships, use staggered formations, use speed advantage to carry out maneuverable attacks, and be sure to maintain fire coverage!" Guo Yuhang's voice was clearly conveyed to the commanders of each warship through the encrypted communication system. He knew that facing the well-equipped Fuso fleet, he must adopt flexible tactics and precise strikes to take the initiative in this naval battle.
As the order was issued, the Königsberg-class light cruisers, with their high speed and excellent maneuverability, quickly shuttled around the enemy ships, continuously firing high-speed armor-piercing shells to harass and weaken the light ships and auxiliary vessels of the Fuso fleet. They used the cover of night and waves to appear and disappear from time to time, making it difficult for the enemy ships to track their whereabouts.
Admiral Scheer's armored ships, with their heavy armor and powerful firepower, took on the heavy task of attacking the enemy. Together with the Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruisers, they formed a powerful assault group and directly challenged the main battleships of the Fuso fleet. The heavy cruisers' 203mm main guns roared continuously, and each shell hit the enemy ship like a heavy hammer, striving to tear through the enemy's defense line in the shortest time.
Seeing this, the Fuso fleet quickly adjusted its tactics and launched a tenacious resistance. Their battleships and cruisers turned around and used their firepower advantage to fight back. On the sea, artillery fire intertwined into a sea of fire, and explosions were deafening. Under the baptism of artillery fire, the warships of both sides continued to entangle and maneuver, sometimes dispersing and sometimes gathering, and the battle was extremely fierce.
In this large-scale naval battle, tactical command and communication are particularly important. Guo Yuhang always pays attention to the dynamic changes of the battlefield, constantly communicates with the commanders of each ship through radio waves, and adjusts the attack direction and firepower distribution. He makes full use of the firepower advantage and mobility of the fleet, and gradually seizes the initiative on the battlefield through flexible tactical arrangements and precise strikes.
The commanders of the Fuso fleet were not to be outdone, and they also showed superb tactical qualities and tenacious fighting spirit. They constantly adjusted the fleet's formation and tactical deployment, trying to reverse the situation through counterattacks.
An hour later, the battle on the sea had reached a fever pitch, and the battleship Royal Palace, once regarded as the pride of the Fuso fleet, was now experiencing an unprecedented catastrophe. The Stuka fleet was like a tireless god of death, shuttling between the gunfire again and again, bombing the Royal Palace repeatedly. Each dive was accompanied by a deafening explosion, and flames shot up into the sky, shaking the Royal Palace's hull again and again.
On the deck of the Royal Palace, the fire had spread, and the thick smoke covered half of the sky. Although the sailors on the ship tried their best to repair and put out the fire, their efforts seemed so pale and powerless under such a fierce attack. The turrets and anti-aircraft guns also lost their former majesty. Some were blown to pieces, and some were silent, unable to roar angrily anymore.
At this moment, the main guns of the two Bemax battleships roared again, their muzzles like the eyes of the god of death, locking onto the falling giant, the Royal Palace. The shells cut through the sky, with destructive force, accurately hitting the vital parts of the Royal Palace. With a shocking explosion, the hull of the Royal Palace shook violently again, as if even the ocean was shaking.
