Beihua is even more sharp in terms of weapons and equipment. It has three triple-mounted 420mm caliber turrets, which are installed in the past two and one. On both sides of the warship, there are also 6 dual-mounted 150mm high-level dual-purpose cannons, 8 dual-mounted 105mm anti-aircraft cannons, 32 single-mounted 37mm machine cannons, and 12 20mm anti-aircraft cannons. The entire warship is armed like a hedgehog.

The huge warship has more room for prosperity. In addition to being equipped with Hualanguo's latest decimeter-wave radar and ballistic computer, there are four large catapults on the rear deck, which are enough to launch nine sea reconnaissance 4 water reconnaissance aircraft in the catapult hangar.

The entire fleet has three ships, and there are three improved Nakagawa-class battleships. However, having these huge battleships does not mean that the Hualan Kingdom Navy is still full of cannon giant ships. Most of these battleships have only command ships and air defense ships. The real main force of combat is still aircraft carriers.

The Jainiyang Second Fleet also has six aircraft carriers, three of which are relatively old Central Plains aircraft carriers, while the other three are much larger, which are the new Ningjiang-class aircraft carriers.

The Ningjiang-class aircraft carrier has a standard displacement of 43,000 tons, powered by 12 large marine diesel engines, with a maximum speed of 33 knots. The aircraft carrier is equipped with 18 single-barrel 130mm anti-aircraft guns, 21 double 40mm machine guns, and 28 20mm single-barrel anti-aircraft guns.

Of course, these weapons are only used for short-range air defense. The real main combat force is as many as 102 aircraft of various types. These aircraft are the latest models, and have long abandoned the new carrier-based aircraft with a biplane design, and their combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.

Such a large fleet, coupled with a large number of destroyers, is enough to make Cunningham's Saldon Continental Fleet dwarf. However, this large fleet has not yet fought with the opponent and has opened fire near the Saldon Continental Fleet.

It turned out that after Wei Hong reported the situation, the submarine No. 4019 he commanded followed, intending to take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters. Because there are supply ships in the fleet, the navigation speed is only 14 knots. In this case, the Sea Wolf Type 4 can easily keep up in the state of a snorkel.

In today's world, there are very few submarines that can reach 14 knots, so Saar seems to be very at ease with the safety of the rear. All anti-submarine destroyers are basically arranged in the front and on both wings, so they don't pay attention to the rear. What's more, in order to hide their tracks, Wei Hong hid the snorkels behind a large piece of strolls, which made it difficult for the Saar people to discover the situation.

The task Wei Hong received was to pay close attention to the movements of the Saar fleet and report its location at any time, so that the second fleet of Jainiyang could grasp the opponent in time and search for an aircraft to launch an air strike. Liu Guanxiong calculated the distance between them. He planned to wait until the distance between the two sides was closer to within 200 nautical miles before taking off the aircraft group to carry out air strikes. As the distance was getting closer, the other party was first attacked.

It turned out that the attack was the Seawolf 4 submarine No. 4033. Among the more than 30 submarines operating in Jainiyang, eighteen were in the eastern part of Jainiyang to the Andaman Sea. This time, I heard that the Saldon Continental Fleet was going to be dispatched, so they all gathered in this direction.

Among these eighteen submarines, there are eleven old Sea Wolf 3 submarines, and the other seven are the latest Sea Wolf 4 submarines. They also receive coordinates sent by No. 4019, so they can gather here. The Hualan Navy has very relaxed requirements for submarine missions. They are similar to hunting, wandering on the sea during war periods and attacking any enemy ships. Because of poor underwater communication, except for these submarines returning to the port or receiving ultra-long-wave telegrams from the headquarters, they rarely contact the headquarters.

Using the wolves tactics first established by the Hualan Kingdom Navy, submarines generally do not always fight alone. When encountering large fleets, they will radio to gather nearby partners to hunt together. Today's situation is that other submarines misunderstand that the signals of submarine No. 4019 are used for hunting, so they gather here.

Fei Yuan, the captain of the No. 4033 submarine, was most anxious. When he discovered the enemy fleet, he immediately started attacking. Two fish-type 1 torpedoes emerged from the chamber, leading two straight trails toward the Saar fleet that was sailing.

"Who is launching a torpedo?" Wei Hong found that an unusual situation appeared on the sonar screen and immediately frowned. According to his judgment, the torpedo could still drive so quickly underwater.

"Oh no, maybe other submarines thought the signal we sent was a hunting signal, so they all ran away." The sonar soldier whispered, and Wei Hong suddenly realized that he was indeed a little negligent, and even forgot to explain in advance that this time was not a hunting.

The raid of the No. 4033 submarine soon came to an end. A torpedo hit the side of the cruiser "Courage" of the Sar Empire from the flank. The warship with a displacement of more than 9,000 tons exploded with a ball of fire, and the hull was tilted halfway.

"There are submarines under the water." The sailors on the battleship shouted loudly. They rushed to their battle positions and were ready to fire at any time. The dexterous destroyers immediately dispersed and repeatedly scanned with sonar. Soon, the puff sound of deep-water bombs entering the water rang out one after another, followed by a series of underwater explosions.

Several Sea Wolf 4 submarines that fought the Pioneer had a maximum submarine depth of 180 meters, and they were not afraid of the Saar deep-water bombs at all. As a result, the destroyers were in a mess but did not achieve any results. Cunningham was worried and immediately ordered the entire fleet to launch an anti-submarine formation and accelerated the advancement.

Faced with the enemy's abscond, the Seawolf submarines were reluctant to give in. Eleven Seawolf 3 submarines had already ambushed on both sides of the other side's route. When the Saar fleet accelerated forward, the submarines had already floated to the depth of the periscope and began to aim at the targets and fire torpedoes.

Many white tracks suddenly appeared on the sea, which caught the Sars off guard. Although the Sars had opened the anti-submarine net, the range of the Fish 1 torpedo was as high as 30 kilometers, which was not a range that destroyers could easily search.

Faced with the emergence of a large number of submarines, the Sar destroyers were desperately deploying deep-water bombs. They ignored the target and directly tried their luck in the form of surface killing. Under the intensive bombing of deep-water bombs, three Sea Wolf 3 submarines could not dodge and were sunk, and two were injured.

Seeing this situation, several Sea Wolf 4 submarines rushed up immediately and shot out the Fish 2 torpedo. Although the range and power have not made much progress, the future of weapons that can effectively guide is immeasurable.
