Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone
Chapter 83: Bombing the Fuso Shipyard, the B-29 bomber group shocked the audience
When the tens of thousands of Fuso civilians crowded in Wu Port heard the shrill air raid sirens, they immediately fell into great chaos and panic.
Anyone who is not a fool knows that the sounding of the air defense alarm is directly related to the fleet of aircraft in the sky.
Driven by the instinct of survival, everyone tried their best to squeeze out, and as expected, a large-scale stampede occurred.
Women, girls and the elderly are the targets of trampling.
However, no one cares about this.
The cars carrying high-ranking officials were rushing out at full speed.
They knew very well how large the scale of this bombing would be, and it would definitely target the entire Wugang base.
As long as they get out of Wugang, they will be safe.
"We've found our target. The Fuso Kure Port Military Base is ahead. Thankfully, we didn't deviate from our course."
On the lead plane, the officer of the 1st Strategic Bomber Aviation Brigade breathed a sigh of relief.
In this era without satellite navigation, it is not easy to accurately find the target during flight.
Nowadays, the means of navigation are nothing more than inertial navigation, astronomical navigation, and manual calculation.
Of course, the Fuxing Army Air Force also mastered radar navigation and radio navigation systems.
For example, the B-29 strategic bomber is equipped with an AN/APQ-13 navigation radar.
It can scan the ground at a distance of up to hundreds of kilometers and can accurately depict the approximate topography.
In addition to the navigation radar, there is also the Hawkeye bombing radar for bombing, the fire control radar system for controlling the remote-controlled turret, etc.
Therefore, the B-29 strategic bomber is much more accurate in bombing than the B-17 bomber.
Because the AN/APQ-7 Hawkeye X-band scanning radar can provide bombardiers with important information such as altitude, distance, and direction, and there is no need to worry about the field of vision being blocked by clouds.
This is also the core of the B-29 strategic bomber's bombing at an altitude of meters.
Ten minutes later, the first echelon of bombers arrived over Wugang.
At this time, the altitude of the aircraft group was 9300 meters, and there was a thin layer of clouds below, which had a certain impact on the bombing.
But fortunately, with the Hawkeye bombing radar, the impact is not particularly great.
On the radar screen, the outline of Wugang Shipyard was clearly displayed.
The shipyard is located on the west side of Wu Port, near the sea. It is built along the coastline. It covers a very large area and is a very conspicuous target.
The pilot plane immediately locked onto the Wugang Shipyard.
"Boom boom boom..."
The anti-aircraft artillery deployed around the Wugang Shipyard began to roar.
There are more than twenty of them.
Normally, these anti-aircraft artillery are basically ignored. They are useful at this time, but it is no different from having them.
"bomb!"
After locking the target, the lead aircraft began to drop bombs.
One after another, 1000-pound and 2000-pound semi-armor-piercing bombs fell densely towards the area where the Wugang Shipyard was located.
The altitude of 9000 meters was really too high, and the bombs took some time to land.
Several factories in the shipyard were immediately affected.
These factories are supporting factories that process some accessories for shipyards, and some are factories that provide services to shipyards.
When the heavy bombs fell into the factory area, a burst of intensive explosions occurred.
Flames shot up into the sky, the factory buildings collapsed, and flames began to spread through the buildings.
The area where the lead aircraft drops bombs is the area where subsequent bombing echelons drop bombs.
So when the lead plane dropped the bomb, the following aircraft group also dropped all the bombs they carried when passing over the bombing target.
Intensive explosions rang out continuously in the Wugang Shipyard area.
Amidst the violent explosions, the factory building also collapsed.
Some bombs missed the bombing area and fell to the side.
And this is where the crowds gather.
When a 2000-pound heavy bomb fell, blood-red flew all over the sky, and the scene was extremely bloody.
If someone saw this scene, they would probably never dare to eat meat again in their life.
Under the explosion of the 907 kg bomb, it was impossible to find survivors within a hundred meters.
This also caused greater panic among the crowd.
As the bombing continued, the carpet bombing of Wu Port also spread to the area where the dock was located.
There are both merchant ships and warships in these shipyards.
However, the Fuso Navy's new 88 shipbuilding plan has just entered the research stage.
Therefore, most of the ships on these slipways are civilian ships.
But there is still a big one.
This big ship is the Ise battleship, the first ship of the Ise-class battleships.
The battleship appeared on the slipway of Wugang Shipyard because it was undergoing its third modernization modification.
The main purpose of this modification is to strengthen its air defense firepower.
计划将原先的4座80毫米的高平两用炮以及第一烟囱两侧的140毫米单管副炮拆除,换成刚研制成功没多久的127毫米40倍径高角炮四座。
In addition, a 40mm cannon and several anti-aircraft machine guns were installed.
Compared with the original air defense firepower, this allocation has greatly enhanced its air defense firepower.
However, this time the Ise battleship, which is undergoing modification, is likely doomed.
Two 907 kg bombs landed on the slipway from the sky.
One of the shells was only 3 meters away from the battleship Ise, and immediately blew a hole of more than 1 meter in its side, causing the side armor to roll inward.
Under the huge impact force, the battleship Ise also shook violently.
"This is... a battleship. A Fuso battleship has been spotted on the first western landing. Report this to all aircraft immediately."
Some crew members immediately discovered the giant ship using the Norton sight.
If a warship is running on the sea, carrying out horizontal bombing from an altitude of 9000 meters is something that only a fool would do.
But now that this giant ship is quietly parked on the slipway, the situation is different.
One after another, B-29 strategic bombers swooped over like sharks smelling blood and dropped bombs on the battleship.
Soon the entire Ise battleship was engulfed in flames from the explosion.
It is impossible to see the situation on the ground clearly from the sky.
The 18 bombers from the two squadrons dropped all of the more than 120 tons of bombs they carried onto the slipway.
"It's over. The battleship Ise is finished, and the entire Kure Port Shipyard is finished."
On the outskirts of the Wugang Shipyard, a Fuso Navy general looked at the Wugang Shipyard in the sea of fire with shocked eyes.
Some people even burst into tears on the spot.
The person crying was the captain of the battleship Ise.
"Your Highness, please evacuate further away. This place is too close to Wu Port..."
"No need to retreat, just watch from here, I want to watch from here..."
At this moment, Prince Ryunosuke Nagashima looked a little embarrassed. He looked fiercely at Wu Gang who was caught in the explosion. Only he knew how sad and angry he felt.
This moment is a shame for the entire Fuso Navy and the entire Fuso Empire.
He wants to remember this moment deeply in his heart.
Sooner or later they will wash this shame off.
“Crack, crack…”
Reporters from various countries overseas did not hesitate to use their expensive films and kept pressing the shutter to capture every scene.
They knew that when this news hit the front page of their newspaper, it would sell like hotcakes.
Because this is a piece of news that can shock the whole world.
Even though they were not far from the bombing site, they did not feel afraid at all.
"Crazy, the Restoration Army is crazy, and the Fuso people are going crazy too..."
The Gallic envoy kept muttering something when he saw these shocking scenes.
"Please tell us, God, how did the Restoration Army do it?"
Minister Morton of John's country looked at the bombers that looked like small black dots in the sky, and his expression could not hide his shock.
From the explosion sounds at the scene, it can be felt that these bombers are definitely not comparable to their current bombers.
Even they, or even Hans, Citi, Gaul and other countries would probably find it difficult to organize such a large-scale bomber force.
"Guys, does anyone know the air distance from the ancient country to Wu Port?"
The American Minister asked with a look of shock on his face.
"I think it must be more than 1000 kilometers. How can their bombers fly so far and carry so many bombs?
Oh my God, are the ancient people crazy or is God crazy?
There are so many mysteries surrounding the Restoration Army that it's practically a world mystery."
"Buzzing..."
At this time, the Fuso Army Aviation fighter plane that took off from a nearby airport finally arrived over Wu Port.
The more than ten fighter jets that came to support also became the hope of many Fuso people.
Let their expressions begin to cheer up.
"Charge! Shoot down all those damned attack planes! Charge!"
However, the Army Aviation pilots looked up at the group of bombers flying high in the sky in the distance and fell silent.
The fighter planes they fly are still the most advanced Type 92 fighter planes.
Since the Army Aviation is not very satisfied with its performance, the number of this fighter produced is not large at present.
This is a biplane fighter that only started serial production last year.
When it was produced, its performance was relatively backward.
Facing a group of bombers at an altitude of 9000 meters, their ceiling was only seven or eight thousand meters.
And even if they could fly to an altitude of seven or eight thousand meters, they would not be able to sustain it for long.
High altitude is a very dangerous airspace, and it can freeze them into popsicles in less than a minute.
Generally speaking, their combat altitude is below 5000 meters.
In most cases, combat takes place at an altitude of one or two thousand meters.
The ceiling of later fighter jets was improved only after technical problems such as closed cockpits and high-altitude pressurization were solved.
However, for propeller fighters, unless they are equipped with turbocharging, their high-altitude performance will not be very good.
The crowd who had been holding out hope for reinforcements started cursing when they saw their aircraft circling in the air but no one rushed up.
Words like coward, bastard, and good-for-nothing appeared in their mouths.
The reporters who were eager to watch the fun even filmed this classic scene.
In the sky were the Restoration Army bomber groups bombing their naval shipyards, while the Fuso fighter planes were just circling in the air and didn't dare to rush up at all.
This scene was also labeled as cowardly.
As for the Type 92 fighter's ceiling? Who cares about this?
(Wugang is the first target, the next one is Daban, use incendiary bombs directly.)
