Chapter 489 Hatoyama Qiao Limaru Gets a Beating
"What?! What country's warship is that?"
Hatoyama Kōrimaru gazed at the silver-gray warship floating on the sea in the distance.
His already not-so-bright mind was completely stunned.
At the same time, Hatoyama Kōkimaru kept searching his mind for other countries' warships that he knew and comparing them with the warship he was seeing now.
But after thinking for a long time, he realized that no country's warship could match the appearance of this warship.
Moreover, when he looked at the ship through his binoculars, he couldn't even see the location of the warship's main guns.
There seems to be a bulge on the foredeck, but I don't know if it's because it's too far away or what.
This made Hatoyama Kōrimaru think that the protrusion was not at all like a main gun capable of firing shells with a caliber of 400mm or larger.
He could barely see the cannon barrel.
Not only that, Hatoyama Kōkimaru then looked through his binoculars at the sea area surrounding the warship.
However, there were no other warships in sight in the surrounding waters.
This doesn't match his previous assessment of at least three large battleships.
Moreover, the warship was quite small, with a total length that looked to be at most 130 meters.
It was about the same length as the Imperial Navy's destroyers, let alone compared to battleships.
In short, apart from looking like a warship, the ship had nothing else to do with warships.
"Did we go in the wrong direction?"
Hatoyama Kōrimaru put down his binoculars and muttered something under his breath.
But he came from the direction of the smoke column, so his location was correct.
And the smoke column clearly ends right here.
Thinking about this, Hatoyama Kōri Maru felt somewhat lost.
He fell into a long silence, his brain practically steaming from thinking.
So, after thinking for a long time without finding a solution, Hatoyama Ryomaru decided to send fighter jets over to take a look.
After all, the smoke column originated in this sea area, even if this ship was not the culprit behind the attack on the Empire's homeland.
But the people on that warship should also have been able to see the warships attacking the empire's homeland firing their cannons.
Moreover, this one ship doesn't seem to have much air defense capability, but we have nearly a hundred fighter jets on our side, so the advantage is in our hands.
Thinking of this, Hatoyama Kōrimaru no longer hesitated and immediately gave orders to the fighter formation via the airborne radio.
"First flight squadron, second flight squadron."
"Immediately break formation and surround that strange warship below. If it doesn't retaliate, don't drop bombs for now; use machine guns to bring it to a halt."
"Hi!!!"
With the issuance of the order by Hatoyama Kōkimaru.
Two squadrons on either side of the Hatoyama Chorikimaru fighter jet accelerated and broke away from the formation.
The target was heading straight for the Silly Bear, which was less than 4 kilometers away.
Their tactics were simple: the first squad flew to the bow and used the onboard machine gun to strafe the front of the Stupid Bear.
The second squad flew over the warship to put pressure on the enemy.
If the warships did not stop, they would directly use machine guns to strafe the hull or drop light bombs on the sides of the warships.
However, it might be because the distance is a bit far.
Hatoyama Kōrimaru did not notice that as their fighter jets moved...
Two close-in weapon systems on the fore and aft decks of that strange warship moved with their positions.
Moreover, at this moment, the gun barrels at the very front of the deck were also slowly adjusting their direction.
They then aimed their cannons at the four fighter planes of the first squadron that had broken away from the Japanese aircraft formation.
Inside the information warfare center of the Silly Bear.
Silly Girl was sitting on the far right of the central control panel in the information warfare hall.
Two sets of joysticks were now visible on the previously smooth and flat control panel, and Bai Luo was standing next to Sha Niu, talking to her.
"Silly girl, this lever controls the direction of rotation of the ship's gun, and this lever controls the height of the gun muzzle."
The button on this joystick is the fire button.
Press once to fire one shot; hold down the button for continuous fire.
Got it? Now show me how you turn the cannon around.
"Uh-huh!"
The silly girl sitting at the control panel immediately began to slowly operate the joystick in her hand according to Bai Luo's instructions.
At the same time, his eyes were fixed on the display in front of the joystick.
As the silly girl turned to breach the defenses, the image on the screen began to move along with the cannon's muzzle.
Soon, the silly girl saw countless tiny black dots in the sky above the screen.
Those were the Japanese fighter planes.
That's right, at this moment the guns of the Silly Bear are being operated by Silly Girl.
This is what Silly Girl wanted to experience firing a cannon after watching an anti-ship missile launch.
After hearing Sha Niu's request, Bai Luo thought for a moment. The Japanese fighter jets would be arriving soon, so he could let Sha Niu try out the 150mm naval gun.
After all, the guns of the USS Silly Bear are perfectly capable of dealing with such low-altitude fighter jets.
It is even more effective in terms of power and rate of fire than some anti-aircraft guns.
Although Xiao Lan could control the ship's cannon, Bai Luo couldn't refuse since Sha Niu had brought it up.
Qin Lan, watching from behind the silly girl, was even more itchy-eyed.
But Bai Luo didn't give her a chance to make a move.
After all, sending her would be a complete waste of ammunition.
At this moment, Silly Girl saw that her cannon was already aimed at the Japanese fighter group above and to the side of the Silly Bear.
His face was flushed, and his big eyes couldn't help but look at Bai Luo standing next to him, the excitement in his eyes impossible to hide.
It was obvious that they were asking Bai Luo if he could fire the cannon.
Bai Luo also understood what the silly girl was trying to express from her eyes.
He immediately spoke up.
"Little Blue, how far away are the enemy troops from us?"
"Commander, the nearest aircraft is 2.5 kilometers away from the Silly Bear, and the furthest is 3.7 kilometers away."
Upon hearing this, Bai Luo immediately gave the order.
"As soon as the Japanese planes enter within 1 kilometer of the Silly Bear, attack them immediately. As for those beyond 1 kilometer, let the Silly Girl practice on them."
"Yes, Commander."
As the enemy aircraft drew closer, the radar detection on the large information screen was replaced with high-definition images.
This is footage captured by the high-definition camera at the top of the Silly Bear, and transmitted in real time to the large screen in the operations center.
The screen even thoughtfully displayed the distance and altitude of each Japanese plane from the Silly Bear.
When the first Japanese plane entered within two kilometers of the Silly Bear.
Bai Luo patted the silly girl on the shoulder, signaling her that she could fire.
After sensing Bai Luo's signal, Silly Girl couldn't help but smile.
He pressed the launch button directly at the Japanese plane that had already been locked on.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
As Silly Girl pressed the fire button, the 150mm naval gun at the very front of the Silly Bear opened its fangs without warning.
Naval guns with a range of up to 50 kilometers could not even hit Japanese fighter planes within a 5-kilometer radius.
The shells left the barrel at such a rapid speed that the Japanese pilots simply couldn't react in time.
This also means that Silly Girl doesn't need to aim much.
Once she locked onto the Japanese fighter plane and pressed the launch button, the Japanese fighter pilot was basically already one foot in the grave.
What's more, the silly girl fired three shots in quick succession, which was clearly a side effect of using machine guns too much.
"Boom, boom!"
As the hull of the Silly Bear trembled slightly, Bai Luo and Qin Lan, who were in the combat information hall, heard two loud explosions in the sky above.
However, Bai Luo didn't need to go out to know that it was the commotion caused by Sha Niu's triple shot that directly destroyed two Japanese fighter planes.
Because at this moment, the information screen on the Silly Bear is displaying the scene in the sky outside.
There was even surround sound in the information hall, which gave Bai Luo the feeling of watching a naval battle movie.
The movie-watching experience was excellent.
"Wow, silly girl, you're amazing! You took down two of them! Let's do it again, this one's closer!!"
Looking at the images on the information screen, Qin Lan couldn't help but excitedly wave her hands and feet.
Taking advantage of his tall stature, he reached out from behind the silly girl and began selecting a target for her on the small screen in front of her.
However joyful the inside of the Silly Bear is, the more terrified Hatoyama Jokimaru is outside, getting beaten up.
