Chapter 117 Dongyang retreats with hatred! The first battle was won, the navy is now different from what it used to be!
Kitahara Sosuke felt bitter inside.
Starting the missile self-destruction program must be based on the situation that the other party cannot stop the missile.
But now the other party has blocked it! All four were blocked!
How to start the missile self-destruction program?
Originally, if the other party could not stop it, initiating the missile's self-destruction program at the last moment would still have a sufficient deterrent effect.
You are still intimidating right now, but if the other party can stop him, your face will hurt from your own breath.
Kitahara Sosuke stood there, his lips trembling with anger.
No wonder the vice-captain just looked at me and hesitated to speak. Why am I asking so many questions!
Put salt in the wound!
Kitahara Sosuke's eyes once again fell on 052B on the distant sea.
The two sides were only 11 kilometers apart at this time, and he could almost see the red flag fluttering in the sea breeze with his naked eyes.
Shame on you for not getting the Shanhua back!
The missile was successfully intercepted by the opponent's warship, what a shame!
If the opponent were any naval power in the West, Kitahara Sosuke would not feel such humiliation, but the opponent was the opposite navy that he did not take seriously.
Four years ago, a military expert from the Eagle Tribe once said that one modern guided missile can destroy multiple non-modern guided missiles without any damage! It refers to the navy opposite.
As a Murasame-class guided missile destroyer, the Murasame is among the first batch of Hainanese ships equipped with passive phased array radars. It is also quite strong among modern warships, at least better than the 956E!
Unexpectedly, the expected single brush did not appear, but his face was swollen.
Although there were only four of them, all the opponent displayed were anti-aircraft missiles! Once the confrontation is frontal, can one's own side stop the anti-ship missile on the opposite side?
He who was full of confidence at first suddenly lost his confidence.
Suddenly, Kitahara Sosuke paused in his steps.
He was ashamed of himself for having such thoughts.
With his eyes fixed on 052B opposite, he wished he could devour this warship that had brought him humiliation.
Seeing Kitahara Sosuke's eyes turned red, the vice-captain realized that something was going to happen and said quickly.
“Captain, General Wada ordered our troops to go back and report to him immediately!”
"Captain, General Hayaki is very dissatisfied with this matter."
Throwing two bombshells in succession, Kitahara Sosuke leaned weakly on the main console and gasped, not wanting to look at the other side 052B.
He also wants to launch 8 or even 12 anti-ship missiles to see if the other party can stop them.
But he also knew in his heart that if that were the case, the other party would definitely not choose to put all its efforts on interception, and would inevitably launch anti-ship missiles to counterattack.
With such a close distance, it would be unwise to engage in a naval battle, which would greatly weaken the advantages of advanced warships.
And now even Murakami Hayaki has come forward. He knows that this matter should end here. The first opportunity has been lost, and there is no point in struggling anymore.
"Baga——"
While shouting angrily, Kitahara Sosuke punched the console hard, making a loud 'bang' sound.
Everyone in the main control room was startled and looked at him quietly, not daring to breathe.
“Go back! Go back! Turn around and go back!”
After hearing this, the vice-captain breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Turn around and prepare to return!"
The Murasame chose to turn around and return only one kilometer away from the boundary line of the sea areas between the two sides.
Even if he is unwilling to do so, even if he is furious, Kitahara Sosuke can only grit his teeth and swallow it.
After he shouted ‘go back’, he looked much older instantly, no longer as high-spirited and content as before.
Remembering that he had just vowed to destroy the Shanhua and then sail away, leaving the opposing navy with nowhere to vent his anger, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart and felt like he couldn't breathe.
How is this going away? This is a desperate run away.
Not far away, in the main control room of the Haruyu, Captain Yota Katsumura looked at the smoke that filled the sky due to the explosion in the distance, and his heart was beating unsatisfactorily.
"They actually intercepted them all! It was only one round! How did they do it?"
He himself was not 100% sure that only 16 anti-aircraft missiles could stop the Murasame. 4 anti-ship missiles.
"956E? But I remember that 956E is not that powerful. It is only the second echelon warship of the White Bear Tribe!"
"Is there some secret warship on the opposite side?"
Thinking of this, he looked confused.
As for 051C, he didn’t even think about it.
Although he does not know the detailed information about 051C yet, the general information has been obtained from Ishita Wada before.
051C alone cannot do this!
But as to whether there were secret warships on the opposite side, he felt that the possibility was slim.
How much does 956E have to offer? It only lasts for one year!
No matter how powerful the military experts on the opposite side are, they are still just shy of crossing the threshold of modern technology before the arrival of 956E! But how far can we go in one year?
How difficult it is to start something from scratch, and how difficult it is to go from something to something more advanced. The other party is different from them. Under the technical blockade, there is simply not enough technical accumulation.
Compared with his own navy and the Eagle Tribe Navy, he felt that being able to take a small step in the field of modernization in one year was incredible!
It is absolutely impossible to surpass 956E!
After much thought, he could only think that there was something wrong with the 956E sold by the White Bear Tribe, or that the opponent was so lucky that even God was blessing him.
The correspondent shouted from the side.
"Report to the captain, news came from the Murasame that they are preparing to retreat."
Hearing the news, Katsumura Yota breathed a sigh of relief.
Just retreat.
He was really afraid that Kitahara Sojie would get so angry that he would not care about anything.
“Let’s go back too!” As he spoke, Yota Katsumura waved his hand, “They got a bargain this time, but they won’t be so lucky next time. God will not favor them both. "That's right!"
"Yes, Captain!"
As the Murasame and Harusame orders were issued, the tense situation suddenly dissipated.
Across the sea boundary, the Shanhua was still running desperately.
Nohara Shinshu was anxious, like an ant on a hot pot. If the coast police officer on the side had not been calm enough to give him confidence, his mentality would have collapsed at this moment.
Waiting for death is so painful.
The distance from Murasame to Shanhua is only 20 kilometers.
It only takes 39 seconds for the Mach 1.5 anti-ship missile to arrive!
39 seconds of life and death!
The time was too short, and I didn’t even have time to explain my last words to my family.
He has also heard about the strength of the opponent's navy over the years. He had no idea whether the two warships could stop the four missiles.
But right now, the opponent's warship is the only hope.
While running away, he paid attention to the latest developments in the sea.
"Captain, they're taking action." The third officer, who had been paying attention to the radar display, said.
Nohara Shinki quickly moved over and saw 16 missiles attacking 4 anti-ship missiles. His heart was stuck in his throat and could pop out at any time.
Suddenly, he subconsciously held his breath and stared at the radar display.
Life or death, it depends on this time.
The hearts of all the people in the Eastern Wilderness tribe within the main control were hanging in the air.
The opposing navy, which they looked down upon in the past, now very much hopes to perform exceptionally well.
Seeing the distance between the two missiles on the radar display getting closer and closer, Nohara Shinki closed his eyes and prayed sincerely.
"God Amaterasu, I have never done anything bad in my life. God Amaterasu must bless them to intercept missiles."
Others were also mumbling.
“God bless!” “Jesus bless!”
Realizing that they were in the other side's waters, praying to those gods might be useless, and someone immediately muttered in a low voice.
"The sky is filled with blessings from gods and Buddhas..."
"Blessings from the Jade Emperor..."
The loaded Coast Guard officers looked at the people present with their eyes closed and praying, thinking one by one. Laughing but not being able to laugh.
If it really can't be stopped, what's the use of praying to the Jade Emperor?
On the battlefield, the only thing you can trust is your own gun. Similarly, the only thing that can be trusted in naval warfare is missiles.
Through the porthole, the coast guard officers looked to the end of the line of sight.
The distance was too far, and they could barely see white cloud lines, which were the traces left by missiles streaking across the sky.
Success or failure depends on this.
The Coast Guard officers couldn't help but hold their breath.
Time passes by second by second.
At this moment, every second seems so long.
Finally, the siren on the radar quieted down.
The third mate was the first to open his eyes, quickly glanced at the radar display, and couldn't help shouting.
"Captain, stopped! They stopped it!"
Nohara Shinshu also opened his eyes and looked at the radar display that had returned to calm. His whole body was shaking with excitement, and his eyes turned red for a moment.
Walking around Gui Men Guan, the ups and downs brought him an unforgettable experience.
“We survived!”
“Hahaha, we survived!”
Within the main control, many Donghuang tribesmen cheered excitedly, with tears in their eyes.
The Coast Guard officers' expressions remained calm, but their hands holding the guns were trembling slightly, which showed that they were not at peace inside either.
Nohara Araki looked at these coast guard officers with a complicated expression.
He didn’t expect that the people in Haizi wanted to die, but the feud on the opposite side saved him.
Although he also knew that the other party did this to save the coast guard personnel and the mysterious cargo on the ship. But no matter what, the other party saved the lives of a boatload of people. This is a fact!
Recalling that he had commanded the Shanhua to run wildly, Nohara Shinshu looked ashamed and said something from the bottom of his heart.
“Thank you!”
The coast guard looked at them calmly, and still said with a straight face: “Don’t waste time, continue returning!”
“Hi! Please rest assured that we will deliver the goods safely!"
As he said that, Nohara Shinshu shouted to the others: "Hurry up, don't waste any time."
On the other side, the 052B main control room.
Zhou Qinglei stood in front of the porthole, looking at the white clouds in the sky at the end of his sight, and his heart couldn't help but feel suspended.
052B is already the most powerful warship in the Navy, even better than 956E!
If even the 052B cannot withstand four anti-ship missiles from the opposite warship, this will be a huge blow to the morale of the navy.
The rainbow-like momentum in the morning will definitely be severely frustrated.
Are we going to stay at the base and lick our wounds like we did four years ago?
Zhou Qinglei looked normal, but his hands had already been clenched into fists.
Captain Wu Ruoming of the Southern Fleet has reconciled with years of grievances and ushered in a new era in the southern seas. Can our Northern Fleet reconcile with the past and usher in a new era in the northern seas?
He was not 100% sure, so he chose not to look at the radar display.
The interception time of 13 seconds is longer than a century.
Finally, the radar monitor shouted.
“Report to captain, the first anti-ship missile was successfully intercepted!”
“Report to captain, the second and third anti-ship missile were successfully intercepted!”
"Reporting to Captain, all four anti-ship missiles were intercepted successfully!"
As the last words were spoken, all the operators on the scene looked at Zhou Qinglei.
The rookie of the navy of Dongzhou Sea and the veteran overlord of Dongzhou Sea met for the first time and gained the upper hand!
This was a maritime game worthy of being recorded in the history of the Northern Fleet, because our side won!
"Captain, we did it." The deputy captain walked to Zhou Qinglei and said solemnly.
Hu——
Zhou Qinglei let out a long breath, as if he wanted to spit out all the grievances he had held back over the years.
The hands that were originally clenched into fists gradually relaxed, and the tight muscles on his face relaxed.
“We did it.” Zhou Qinglei kept saying.
In the past, when facing the warships from the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, they all rushed towards them with the intention of death. There is no other way. The strike distance is too close and the anti-ship missiles cannot reach it. They can only compete with each other to see who is less afraid of death.
Use anti-aircraft missiles to intercept anti-ship missiles? Can't even think about it!
The 052 guidance drive and the older 051, which only have some air defense, can only launch a limited number of anti-aircraft missiles at a time and lock on one or two anti-ship missiles. Moreover, the reaction time is long and the reloading time is longer. How can it stop four Mach 1.5 anti-ship missiles?
It's different now. The 052B is already a very powerful regional defense air ship with fast anti-aircraft missiles and even faster anti-ship missiles.
Facing the former overlord of the sea, 051C may not be qualified, but 052B not only has the ability to protect itself, but also has room to fight back.
It is better to practice it once than to deduce it thousands of times.
052B proved with its strength that it still has enough confidence in the Dongzhou waters.
"Captain, the Coast Guard has reported back. Captain Nohara Shinki of the Sanhua said that the Coast Guard dispatched a Murasame and a Harusame this time!"
"Hargyu? Murasame? Those are two Murasame-class guided missile destroyers!"
Zhou Qinglei's face was full of astonishment.
Although they are the first batch of Murasame-class guided missile destroyers to be put into service, their fame and strength are there.
052B already has the capital to compete with the Murasame-class guided missile destroyers?
Thinking of this, Zhou Qinglei beamed.
This news made him even more excited than the 052B successfully intercepting four missiles.
He asked for no reason.
“You said, if 052B and the Murasame meet alone at sea, what are the chances of winning?”
“Well...” the deputy captain hesitated, “The Murasame is commissioned after all. Passive phased array radar is more advanced than us in terms of radar!”
“Yes!” Zhou Qinglei nodded, “The odds are hard to predict, we still have a long way to go. Let’s go!”
At this time, the radar monitor shouted again.
"Report to the captain, they have retreated."
As soon as these words came out, all the operators present were happy.
In the past, you had to bravely ram the opponent with warships to force the opponent away.
Now, times have changed, the navy is not what it used to be, and it no longer needs to be what it used to be.
