"General! The engine room is flooded, and the pipe damage cannot make up for the gap. Abandon the ship!"

Eliezer Marom's head was wrapped with gauze. This was when the torpedo hit the battleship. The huge impact directly threw Eliezer Marom into the air.

His head hit the cabin door, causing a large gash.

This is already lucky! If he had hit any bump, he might have been dead by now.

The powerful torpedo directly blasted a large hole three meters in diameter in the battleship's solid side armor.

Under the influence of pressure, the seawater poured in like a fountain.

The sailors didn't even have time to close the watertight compartment before they were swept away by the surging seawater.

The parts below the third floor of the deck were already submerged by seawater before the pipe damage could be detected.

The water came in so fast that the drain machine had no effect at all.

Just when everyone on the ship was busy plugging the leak!

"Boom!" Another torpedo hit the middle of the hull.

This time, the gap opened was larger than last time.

The hull tilted rapidly, and in less than fifteen minutes, it had tilted fifteen degrees.

Eliezer Marom prepared to fill the other side with water in an attempt to keep the battleship balanced.

But...! He didn't need to inject water anymore, because another torpedo bomber was targeting him again.

In just sixteen minutes, the battleship took four consecutive high-explosive torpedoes.

It has to be said that the quality of Ming warships is guaranteed. Even if they are known to be built for future opponents, they will never cut corners.

After being hit by four high-explosive torpedoes in succession, the battleship still staggered forward on the sea like an old man who had suffered a stroke.

"General, the power of the power cabin is already less than 30%."

Another discouraging news came from the bottom cabin!

"Abandon the ship, you are all excellent young men from the Hebrews. Don't die here, go back to Israel.

Tell the commander what happened to us and ask them to be careful of this new Ming weapon."

Eliezer Marom sighed.

For half a year, the battle plan was rehearsed over and over again in his mind.

He even kept the time accurate to the minute, and with two huge battleships in his hands, he was confident that he would blow Crete into powder.

He even thought of having an artillery duel between battleships in the Aegean Sea with the Ming army.

That must be quite a scene!

But he miscalculated!

What Ming Dynasty sent was not a battleship, but something like flies flying in the sky.

These things are so annoying, they fly extremely fast, and anti-aircraft guns seem to have no effect on these things.

The stubborn chassis could not even keep up with the angle of the aircraft.

But what they throw down is deadly.

He saw that those destroyers would even be blown into two pieces by torpedoes.

The front half sank, while the back half was still floating strangely on the sea.

The sea was full of Hebrew soldiers, some alive and some dead. Sharks had already rushed over to eat those soldiers who had suffered a tragic fate.

The few lifeboats that have been lowered are struggling to save people who have fallen into the water.

But there are simply too many people to save.

Just as Eliezer Marom looked at this apocalyptic scene, a torpedo plane swooped down again.

Five hundred meters away from the battleship, a torpedo was dropped.

For a battleship that is almost stationary, it is simply a dream to get rid of torpedoes.

After a huge explosion, the bow of the squadron's flagship began to sink in the thick smoke.

Soon, the stern of the flagship was raised high. The entire battleship plunged diagonally into the Mediterranean Sea.

The carrier-based aircraft did not have a radio, so Li Xiu did not know the outcome of the naval battle.

Everyone was standing on the beach like Wangfushi, staring blankly in the direction of the plane's departure.

The sun was half submerged in the sea water, and suddenly a black spot appeared next to the sun.

The familiar "buzz" and "buzz" sounds came to mind again!

"Back! Back!"

Chen Laohu pointed at the gradually growing black spot, jumping up and down like a child. The expression on his face could not tell whether he was crying or laughing.

"Why are there so few?" Li Xiu's heart skipped a beat when he saw that there were only six planes flying back sparsely.

The production of the aircraft is very limited, and each one is a treasure among treasures.

Thirty were sent out, but only six came back.

Oh my God! How can I explain this to my elder brother?

"Uh...!" Chen Laohu didn't know what to say.

Thirty aircraft were sent out, but only six came back. This loss is too great!

How did those Hebrews bring down the plane?

Six planes flew closer and passed over Li Xiu.

My eardrums were so shocked that I couldn't hear anything, and the people celebrating just now seemed to have lost their motivation.

They just watched blankly as the planes flew towards the aircraft carrier and then landed on the aircraft carrier one after another.

"What did they use to bring down the plane?" Li Xiu looked at the landing plane and muttered in a low voice.

"Commander, look, another plane is coming." Chen Laohu pointed to the sky again.

Looking in the direction of Chen Laohu's finger, there were indeed two small black spots.

Two more planes!

Li Xiu's mood improved a little, and two more planes came back. But... where are the remaining planes?

This frightening feeling lasted for a long time!

The planes flew back in groups of three and five, and the people on the ground also knew it. These planes flew out in formation, but they may not fly back in formation.

"Commander, I looked and it seems that there are no injured people. They are all in full shape!

It is estimated that they will fly back one after another!”

Chen Laohu was the first to react.

"Just fly back, just fly back." Seeing three batches of planes flying back one after another, Li Xiu felt relieved.

If we really kill the enemy fleet, the loss of a few aircraft is acceptable.

Immediately! He thought of another big problem.

"Tiger, hurry up! Send the destroyers out and be sure to find the pilots who fell into the water. Those pilots are all precious."

Currently, the Ming Dynasty has no more than a hundred pilots, all of whom are elites selected from the airship army.

Li Xiao said that with the amount of fuel they spend training, they can create a golden man of the same weight as them.

To a certain extent, the aircraft can afford to lose it, but the pilot cannot afford to lose it.

"No!" When Chen Laohu heard what Li Xiu said, he hurriedly walked to the phone and dispatched a destroyer to the sea area where the incident occurred for rescue.

When there was still a glimmer of light on the horizon, the aircraft carrier was still receiving the returning aircraft.

After radio contact, Li Xiu received the report that the enemy fleet had been completely wiped out and that no one of his own had been lost for the time being.

Fifty-seven aircraft have been recovered, which makes Li Xiu feel very good.

This is a victory of extraordinary significance. From now on, the pattern of world naval warfare will be subversively changed.

It was completely dark, and Li Xiu was sitting on a chair, drinking red wine and eating beef jerky soaked in date palm water, and he was in a good mood.

Today proved the tremendous power of aircraft carriers.

After the birth of this kind of thing, the war suddenly extended from within visual range to beyond visual range.

From now on, when you are traveling on the sea, you never know when a group of planes will arrive, bombing and torpedoing you, and sending you directly to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

"Boom!" An explosion woke Li Xiu out of his reverie.

The aircraft carrier in the distance is billowing smoke!

After all, something happened and all the planes were successfully recovered.

Only this one was damaged by anti-aircraft artillery. The pilot did not control it well when landing, and the sky was dark and visibility was not good.
