"Da da da!"

A carrier-based BF-109 fighter jet is firing on a "Fubuki-class" destroyer of the island navy. The bullets from the aviation machine guns strafed the destroyer's anti-aircraft gun positions, shooting sparks one by one.

"Ah!" The screams kept ringing out, and sailors from island countries were shot.

Four dive bombers took the opportunity to attack the aircraft carrier. They swooped down from a high altitude to attack, and dropped heavy aviation armor-piercing shells at a height of only 500 meters from the sea.

Although, the destroyer 'Baiyun' sailed very fast and evaded it in time. However, among the four aerial bombs weighing 500 kilograms, one still scored a hit.

Under the effect of acceleration, the heavy aerial bomb possessed extremely high kinetic energy, and easily smashed through the deck of the destroyer 'Baiyun'. The bomb exploded inside the battleship, and the violent explosion tore apart the hull of the destroyer 'Baiyun'.

Sea water poured into the hull frantically, and soon the destroyer sank into the sea.

After the destroyer 'Baiyun' was sunk, the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft group began to attack the warships inside. The light cruiser "Tama" suffered heavy damage under the siege of four dive bombers and four torpedo attack aircraft of the German Navy. Two heavy aviation armor-piercing projectiles made this light cruiser with a displacement of 5,100 tons almost lose its combat effectiveness. After a 533 mm heavy torpedo hit the waterline of its midship, it directly gave it a fatal blow.

When the light cruiser "Tama" was lying on the sea and struggling like a dead fish. The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy have already launched attacks on other warships.

"Baga! Anti-aircraft fire! The Germans are about to attack us." The captain of the "Ise" battleship, Omori Sentaro, roared loudly.

The outer **** warships were sunk one after another by the German Navy. This undoubtedly put great pressure on the core battleship 'Ise'. Although the 10 twin-mounted 25mm anti-aircraft guns and a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns on the battleship "Ise" are all firing. The anti-aircraft firepower on the other **** warships was also firing. However, it is still very difficult to hit those carrier-based aircraft. Their anti-aircraft firepower seems dense, but because the anti-aircraft firepower of these warships was modified later. Although the number of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns is quite large, there are not small defects in their composition. As a result, there are not small loopholes in their anti-aircraft firepower.

The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy can often take advantage of those loopholes to attack the warships of the island navy.

"Boom boom boom!"

A dive bomber of the German Navy was hit, and the battleship fell to the sea with thick smoke. The pilot jumped out immediately. However, it is difficult to say whether he can survive. After all, it is a full 400 kilometers away from the German fleet. After the battle, even if the German fleet sent seaplanes to search and rescue, they might not be able to save them.

The heavy cruiser 'Ashigara' became the target of the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft group. This heavy cruiser stood in front of their route of attacking the battleship 'Ise'. Although the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy can bypass this battleship and directly attack the battleship 'Ise'. However, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses under the blow of its anti-aircraft firepower. Only by sinking it and completely opening the passage can the battle damage be effectively controlled.

"Woo!"

Accompanied by the piercing roar, several dive bombers have already started to attack. Under the heavy anti-aircraft fire of the heavy cruiser "Ashigara", several dive bombers have already started dropping bombs.

Several aerial bombs hit the heavy cruiser 'Ashigara' almost at a vertical angle.

Although the heavy cruiser "Ashigara" avoided a lot, two aerial bombs still scored hits.

In addition, the torpedo attack aircraft of the German Navy also launched an attack. As a result, the heavy cruiser "Ashigara" was quickly damaged. Under the circumstances that it is difficult to protect itself, there is naturally no way to provide fire support to the battleship 'Ise'.

The carrier-based aircraft group of the German Navy finally successfully opened the channel to attack the battleship 'Ise'.

Eight dive bombers began to dive at the same time. At the same time, four more torpedo attack aircraft launched an attack.

"Aerial bombs, dodge quickly!"

Eight aerial bombs weighing 500 kilograms slammed into the battleship 'Ise' fiercely.

The huge "Ise" battleship, like a bison, bumped into the sea, trying to avoid these deadly bombs.

However, it still failed to succeed.

A total of three bombs hit the battleship 'Ise'. The 135 mm thick deck armor still cannot withstand these aviation armor-piercing shells dropped from high altitude. The bomb exploded after penetrating the deck armor.

The violent explosion caused a devastating blow to multiple compartments of the battleship "Ise". It even includes core compartments such as the power compartment.

There was also an aerial bomb that exploded underwater less than ten meters away from the battleship 'Ise'. After the bomb exploded, the powerful water pressure tore the underwater armor of the battleship 'Ise'. Although the side armor of the battleship "Ise" was as thick as 305 millimeters, it still couldn't resist it. The underwater armor was torn apart and a big hole was blown out.

Immediately afterwards, the attack of four heavy aviation torpedoes also arrived. The battleship "Ise" seemed to be unlucky, and two torpedoes scored hits. This caused two large holes to be torn in the side waterline armor of the battleship 'Ise', and sea water poured into the battleship frantically.

The battleship 'Ise' at this moment has been severely damaged. The battleship was leaking water everywhere, burning, and even the engine room was destroyed. It can be said that the fate of this battleship has been doomed.

Subsequently, the dive bombers of the German Navy launched another round of attacks. Eight dive bombers dropped the remaining bombs. This time the battleship 'Ise' could no longer evade. This directly resulted in seven of the eight bombs being hit.

Explosions continued to sound on the battleship 'Ise'. Soon, this huge battleship with a displacement of 40,000 tons sank into the sea.

When the battleship 'Ise' was besieged, the situation of the battleship 'Mutsu' was not much better. It's just that the battleship "Mutsu" seems to have better luck. Although it was also severely damaged, there is no danger of sinking for the time being.
