Because it lost the restraints of the nylon rope, the patrol boat, whose potential energy had been increased to the extreme, shot forward like a sharp arrow. Mohan Hun on the deck had no time to stabilize his body. Under the action of inertia, he shot out from the patrol boat. It was thrown off the deck of the boat. Almost at the same time that Mo Hanhun was thrown out, the destroyer's triple main gun fired.
"Boom!" Along with a loud noise, the muzzles of the three five-inch main guns ejected dazzling flames at the same time.
After a delay of less than two seconds, before the soul of Mohan, who was thrown into the air, had time to fall into the sea, three five-inch kinetic energy shells roared towards him. The shells tore through the air and made a piercing scream. , and at the same time, a violent air wave was formed. Mohan's soul, which had no time to fall into the water, was torn to pieces by this air wave.
There is nothing wrong with Mohan's soul being a wolf fang, but it is still flesh and blood after all.
After tearing apart Mohan Soul, three five-inch kinetic energy bombs penetrated into the starboard side of the Ado Maru with a loud bang. The next moment, a huge hole was blasted from the middle on the starboard side of the Ado Maru, with a diameter of The hull within fifty meters melted into iron instantly, and the corpses of a dozen Japanese soldiers standing on the starboard side with guns raised and shooting were instantly wiped out.
Human flesh and blood is so fragile in front of cannonballs.
"Han soul?!"
"Senior?!"
"Taoist Priest?!"
"Brother Dao?!"
Seeing Mohan's soul being torn apart by cannonballs, Sweet Potato exploded in a matter of seconds.
However, Xu Rui became calmer than ever before, holding the rudder tightly with both hands, and suddenly the rudder was full.
The hull of the patrol boat instantly tilted over at an exaggerated angle, and then drew a beautiful arc near the stern of the Ado Maru, cutting it diagonally. Almost at the same time, several shells screamed Then it flew over the stern of the patrol boat. By a hair, the patrol boat was not hit by these shells.
This was done by another destroyer hidden on the left side of the Adomaru.
Avoiding the ambush of the destroyer on the left, Xu Rui returned the rudder of the patrol boat to the straight position and began to accelerate forward, because at this time, the largest cruiser in the front was blocked by the Adomaru, and the two on the left and right sides Although the destroyer can see the patrol boat, it takes time to turn the gun port.
After all, naval guns are not anti-aircraft machine guns. Anti-aircraft machine guns do not require a winch. The firing angle can be adjusted manually. However, naval guns have a large caliber and are extremely heavy. It is impossible to adjust the firing angle manually, so a mechanical winch is required. However, Mechanical winches take time and are not as quick as manual adjustments.
Therefore, the patrol boat has at least one to two minutes to escape.
This is still the most conservative estimate. If the Japanese Navy is not qualified enough or temporarily panics, the patrol boat will have more time to escape. In short, whether it can escape this time depends on whether the patrol boat can escape. The two destroyers escaped far enough before adjusting their firing angles.
Xu Rui opened the patrol boat's throttle to the maximum, and with the crazy rotation of the stern propeller, the stirred up white turbulence was shot out to the rear like sharp arrows. In the blink of an eye, the speed of the patrol boat had climbed to fifty. knot, this was already the patrol boat's maximum speed, and Xu Rui could hear the motor roaring violently.
"Quick, Lao Xu, increase the horsepower!" Leng Tiefeng kept urging, shouting hysterically, "The bow main guns of the two destroyers and more than 20 rapid-fire cannons of the little devil have already changed the firing angle. Turn around, the salvo is about to begin, the two Japanese destroyers are about to launch a salvo, hurry up, or it will be over!"
The two Japanese destroyers obviously wanted to complete the victory in one battle. They did not rush to fire their guns. Instead, they coordinated two triple-mounted bow main guns and more than 20 rapid-fire guns in an attempt to form artillery coverage. In this case, unless the patrol boats could Before the destroyer's gun group fires, escape to at least five kilometers away, otherwise, you will be dead.
Suddenly, the muzzles of the main and secondary guns of the two destroyers glowed red at the same time.
The next moment, Di Gua, Wu Han and Mo Zichen shouted at the same time: "The Japanese are firing!"
Xu Bu's heart suddenly sank. The Japanese Navy's quality was even better than he expected. It only took less than two minutes to complete all the preparations for the salvo! Although the speed of the patrol boat had been pushed to the extreme by him, the time was too short, and he could only escape less than three thousand meters at most!
The flight speed of the cannonball is about 900 meters per second, and the distance of 3,000 meters only takes three seconds.
In other words, in three seconds, nearly a hundred shells fired by the two Japanese destroyers behind them will form a barrage of tens of meters in diameter near the patrol boat they are riding on, unless they are extremely lucky. , otherwise, the chance of not being hit by any cannonball can be said to be extremely slim!
There are only three seconds, life and death are only within these three seconds!
Gritting his teeth, Xu Rui suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hold on tight!"
The next moment, Xu Rui used both hands to swipe the rudder, and the patrol boat that was speeding forward immediately tilted sharply to the right.
It is almost impossible to escape at least five kilometers in just two minutes, but it is still possible to escape nearly a hundred meters in three seconds. As long as you escape this salvo of Japanese destroyers, Their chances of escape would be greatly increased, so Xu Rui decided to take a gamble, because even if the boat capsized, the outcome would not be worse.
"Old Xu, are you crazy?!" Leng Tiefeng immediately shouted, "I know how to do it!"
Leng Tiefeng also learned how to drive a speedboat when he was studying at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He also did some research on the minimum turning radius that a speedboat can perform at what speed. Based on the experience he learned, Xu Rui Making a sharp turn with such a small radius at a high speed of over 50 knots, you have to turn over!
After all, this is not on land. The weight and inertia of a speedboat are much greater than that of a car.
"It's better to flip over than to be hit by a cannonball!" Xu Rui gritted his teeth and said ferociously, "What's more, he may not be able to flip over!"
While the two were talking, the patrol boat tilted sharply to the right, and then turned over violently. However, what was slightly different from Leng Tiefeng's expectation was that the patrol boat actually jumped upwards for about 30 seconds while turning over. Two meters, it is these two meters that determines the life and death of this patrol boat, and also determines the life and death of Xu Rui and the others.
Soon enough, the speeding patrol boat had already turned upside down. Fortunately, Digua and the others had been reminded by Xu Rui in advance and had grabbed everything around them in advance, so the patrol boat Even though they were turned upside down, none of them fell from the boat.
"The ball is dead now." Leng Tiefeng sighed softly in his heart.
At the moment of life and death, the thought that flashed through Leng Tiefeng's mind was not fear, but regret. It was regret that he could not return to Damei Mountain to see Xiao Yanyue again before he died, and regret that he could not watch Doudou grow up. However, Leng Tiefeng did not regret it. If he had to choose again, he would still follow Xu Rui to Tokyo.
Thoughts of regret flashed through his mind, and then Leng Tiefeng began to wait for the last moment to arrive.
According to Leng Tiefeng's driving experience, after the patrol boat is turned upside down, it will fall into the seawater with the bottom of the boat facing up. Then the superstructure moving forward at high speed will generate huge friction with the still seawater, but the superstructure It is also relatively complex and cannot remove friction like the bottom of a speedboat, so the final result can only be an instant disintegration.
And as the speedboat disintegrates in an instant, the occupants inside will also be chopped into pieces. Even if they are Wolf Fangs, the strength of their body bones and muscles is far greater than that of ordinary people, it is useless, because at such a high speed, Even a thin piece of paper can become sharper than a sword.
Leng Tiefeng closed his eyes and began to wait quietly.
However, the expected disintegration never came.
Leng Tiefeng only felt that the patrol boat that had been turned upside down suddenly returned to the right position, and then hit the sea surface hard with a banging sound, and then jumped up twice, and then returned to calmness. In an instant, an extremely harsh shriek of artillery shells suddenly sounded in my ears, and then there were continuous explosions of boom-boom.
Opening his eyes eagerly, Leng Tiefeng was surprised to find that the patrol boat that was supposed to have been turned upside down and disintegrated was still speeding on the water. When he turned to look at the sea to the side and behind, he saw columns of water rising into the sky. Obviously, these water columns were splashed by the Japanese naval gun shells hitting the sea water.
Seeing this scene, Leng Tiefeng's thinking suddenly short-circuited. What is going on
At that moment, Leng Tiefeng turned to look at Xu Rui beside him, and asked in a deep voice: "Old Xu, what is going on?"
Xu Rui just smiled and didn't say much, but in fact, Xu Rui's vest was soaked in cold sweat.
That moment just now was when the patrol boat turned upside down. It was really dangerous. The key to the reason why the patrol boat driven by Xu Rui did not disintegrate as Leng Tiefeng imagined was that he was turning the rudder to the right. Before filling the rudder, first push it slightly to the left. It is this push to the left, and then the rudder is fully turned to the right. It interacts with the sea water and generates an additional upward thrust, pushing the patrol boat upwards. It rose to about two meters.
It is these two meters that give the patrol boat enough time to turn around in the air. When the patrol boat turns upside down, it is still about one meter away from the sea. When the patrol boat finally falls into the water, the patrol boat has completed It turned three hundred degrees and turned into a heavy fall into the water on the port side. Then, under the action of inertia, the hull continued to tilt to the right. When the inertia finally dissipated, the hull of the patrol boat just returned to the right direction, but it was just rebounded by the sea water. , jumped up twice in a row.
This means that in the three seconds just now, the patrol boat completed a 360-degree turn in the air. It was this 360-degree turn in the air that solved the problem of full speed at high speed. Due to the strong inertia of the sharp rudder rotation, the patrol boat was able to complete a sharp right-angle turn while traveling at high speed!
