    "Asshole! How could it be like this?" On the battlecruiser USS South Dakota, Major General Henry looked at the sinking battlecruiser USS Montana, and he felt like crying.  After finally waiting for the 1st Battlecruiser Division to arrive, the despicable and shameless Chinese seized on this last plan and poured all their firepower on the battlecruiser Montana.  The battlecruiser USS Montana faced the siege of six enemy ships and eventually ended up being sunk.  Now, the only remaining battlecruisers of the 2nd Battlecruiser Division of the U.S. Navy are the battlecruisers South Dakota and Louisiana.  The other four battlecruisers were sunk!

    In this fierce naval battle, the losses incurred by the Chinese navy were minimal, only

    ¡®Wei Qing, the battleship No. 1 was slightly injured, and the other battleships were only slightly injured, which did not affect the continued battle at all!  The naval battle has just begun, and the U.S. Navy has lost four battleships, while the Chinese Navy has remained unscathed.  Such a result is unacceptable to everyone in the U.S. Navy!

    "General, the Chinese have moved in to catch up! What should we do now?" an officer asked.

    After more than half an hour of fierce fighting, the U.S. Navy's 2nd Battlecruiser Division lost most of its battleships. This caused these U.S. Navy officers and soldiers who originally had a very high fighting spirit to be deeply hit again.  !

    "Get closer to General Paulson immediately! Also, suggest him to retreat! We only have six battlecruisers left, and they are no match for the Chinese at all!" Major General Henry said without hesitation.  Although the 1st Battlecruiser Division arrived, Rear Admiral Henry did not think that they had the strength to confront the Chinese Navy!  The previous naval battle had already made him deeply aware of the gap between him and the Chinese Navy!

    However, Rear Admiral Paulson, the commander of the U.S. Navy¡¯s 1st Battlecruiser Division, did not adopt Rear Admiral Henry¡¯s suggestion!

    "Hmph! Is that Henry guy scared out of his wits by the Chinese? Of their six battlecruisers, only four were beaten by the Chinese. It's so embarrassing! In addition, he actually suggested that I  Retreat, is he really frightened by the Chinese?" Major General Paulson said disdainfully.  As the commanders of the two battlecruiser divisions of the U.S. Navy, there is also competition between Rear Admiral Paulson and Rear Admiral Henry.  Although the 1st Battlecruiser Division has two fewer battleships than the 1st Battlecruiser Division, Rear Admiral Paulson has always believed that the 1st Battlecruiser Division is more powerful!  Because the four battleships of the 1st Battlecruiser Division are all Colorado-class battlecruisers, which are much more powerful than the South Dakota-class battlecruisers and North Carolina-class battlecruisers of the 2nd Battlecruiser Division!

    "Tell that guy Henry, follow us! Let them see how we teach those yellow-skinned monkeys!" Major General Paulson said with high spirits.  It was as if he had defeated Henry at this moment!

    Rear Admiral Henry had no choice but to order the remaining two battlecruisers to turn around, follow the 1st battlecruiser detachment, and once again engage the Chinese Navy's six 'Hanxin-class, fast battleships.  Fortunately, he got good news. The main force of the combined fleet of the US and UK navies was coming quickly, and they would be able to reach the battlefield in more than half an hour at most!  By then, when the main fleet arrives, there will be no need to fear the six battleships of the Chinese Navy!

    The US Navy's Colorado-class battlecruisers are imitations of the British Navy's

    ¡®Lion class, battlecruiser, with a displacement of 30,000 tons, a maximum speed of 275 knots, and armaments of four twin 343mm main guns, 16 1000mm secondary guns and 4 533mm heavy torpedo tubes.  In terms of armor, the Colorado-class battlecruisers are much more powerful than the previous two-class battlecruisers of the U.S. Navy. The waterline armor is 229 mm thick, the deck armor is 64 mm, the turret armor is 229 mm, and the bridge armor is 229 mm.  is 254 mm.  Of course, this kind of protection capability is still incomparable to a real battleship, and it cannot be compared to the Chinese Navy's 'Hanxin-class, fast battleship!  Rear Admiral Paulson's unfounded confidence brought the U.S. Navy's 1st Battlecruiser Division into a desperate situation!

    Under the command of Rear Admiral Paulson, the remaining two battlecruisers of the 1st Battlecruiser Group and the 1st Cruiser Group of the U.S. Navy formed a battle line and took the initiative to attack the Chinese Navy's six Hanxin-class fast battleships.  Get closer and want a duel!

    "What happened? Did those Americans' heads get caught in the door? Are you really not afraid of death if you dare to challenge us at this time?" Brigadier General Ge Chunlin said in surprise.  He originally thought that the Americans would flee immediately after seeing the horror of the 2nd Battlecruiser Division.  I didn't expect that the Americans would dare to attack.  However, this is also in line with his wishes. If it can be carried out on a naval aircraft carrier,??Carrier-based aircraft can achieve more results when launching attacks, which is also very beneficial to him personally!

    "Order all ships to prepare for battle and assign targets!" Brigadier General Ge Chunlin ordered!  Since the Americans are seeking death themselves, let¡¯s give them a ride!

    ¡®Han Xin, the number is against ¡®Colorado,¡¯ the number is Wei Qing, the number is against ¡®Maryland,¡¯

    ¡®Huo Qubing, ¡®Georgia,¡¯ Li Guang, ¡®West Virginia,¡¯ Li Ling, ¡®South Dakota,¡¯ Banchao, ¡®Louisiana,¡¯!  A fierce battle once again unfolded on the sea, with the two sides firing wildly at a distance of 10,000 meters!  The U.S. Navy wants to shorten the fighting distance, but the Chinese fleet will not do what they want. No matter how the U.S. Navy turns and accelerates, etc., it will always control the fighting distance between the two sides to 10,000 meters!

    The firepower of the US Navy's Colorado-class battlecruisers is also very fierce. Although it only has one less main gun than the Chinese Navy's Hanxin-class fast battleships, the 343mm main gun can also produce fatal damage to the Hanxin-class battleships.  threaten.  Fortunately, the U.S. Navy's artillery accuracy is as poor as ever. At a distance of 10,000 meters, it is quite difficult for them to hit the Chinese Navy's Hanxin-class battleship!

    When the Chinese Navy's 'Hanxin-class' fast battleships were fighting fiercely with the U.S. Navy's battlecruisers, they achieved great results.  The main force of the Chinese Navy is also preparing to launch a fatal attack on the US Navy!

    "Commander! There is a telegram from the front line, and the American 1st Battlecruiser Division has also appeared! The American main fleet is expected to be not far to the north of the battlefield!" Lieutenant General Hai Zhengsheng reported to Marshal Li Dingxin!

    "Well! Now that the main force of the Americans has appeared, we don't have to wait anymore! Send a telegram to General Chen Yuankun and ask the aircraft carrier formation to send seaplanes to scout the direction of the main fleet of the U.S. Navy. Once the target is discovered, the carrier-based aircraft will immediately  Launch an attack and strive to annihilate the main fleet of the US and British navies before dark!" Marshal Li Dingxin immediately issued the order!  It was only after one in the afternoon, and there were still six hours until dark.  If the distance between the two sides is not far, there will be enough carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier formation to launch two to three attacks.  Hundreds of carrier-based aircraft are estimated to be able to kill the main force of the US-British naval combined fleet in just two attacks. Even if there are still some battleships left, the main force of the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet can kill all the fish that have slipped through the net!

    "Okay, Marshal!" Lieutenant General Hai Zhengsheng replied excitedly.  He also knew that the most fatal blow to the combined fleet of the US and UK navies was about to begin!  This is also the first time that an aircraft carrier has boarded the stage of naval battle, and will exert unparalleled combat effectiveness, completely ending the era of battleships!

    Thirty kilometers south of the sea area where the main force of the Chinese Navy¡¯s expeditionary fleet is located, four huge warships are being defended by more than a dozen light cruisers, destroyers and frigates.  These battleships are different from battleships. They do not have tall masts or huge guns. Some of them just have flat decks with airplanes stationed on them.  This is the Chinese Navy¡¯s secret weapon in this naval battle, four ¡®Emeishan-class aircraft carriers.

    At this time, the deck was very busy. Ground crews were inspecting each carrier-based aircraft, adding fuel and ammunition, etc.  After the Chinese Navy and the combined fleets of the U.S. and British navies began to exchange fire, the aircraft carrier fleet began to prepare.  After receiving the combat order, fighter planes must immediately take off to attack the main force of the US-British naval combined fleet!

    "General, a telegram from the commander! Let us take off a seaplane to reconnoiter the sea area 8-10 to 150 kilometers north! The main force of the US-British naval combined fleet is likely to be nearby!" A staff officer handed the telegram to Chen Yuankunzhong  Will!

    "Well! Order the seaplane to take off! Once the combined fleet of the US and UK navies is discovered, notify us immediately!" Lieutenant General Chen Yuankun said with some excitement.  He knew that once traces of the combined fleet of the US and UK navies were discovered, it would be time for the carrier-based aircraft to perform!

    Each aircraft carrier carries eight seaplanes.  This time, Lieutenant General Chen Yuankun directly dispatched all seaplanes.

    Half an hour later, Lieutenant General Chen Yuankun received a telegram from seaplane No. 27. They discovered the main force of the US-British naval combined fleet in the waters 95 kilometers northwest.  According to visual inspection, there are at least thirty battleships!

    "Order the carrier-based aircraft of each ship to take off immediately and prepare to attack the enemy!" Lieutenant General Chen Yuankun ordered immediately!

    At 1:38 pm, the first carrier-based aircraft took off from the aircraft carrier "Emeishan!"
