Chapter 137: Suppression
"This is the Tokitsu Kaze, and the torpedo loading is complete. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"It's fine on the Sun's side, too. ”
"The Isokaze is also loaded. ”
All three destroyers had been hit by a number of shells in previous battles, but fortunately not a single shell had damaged the torpedo launchers and torpedo reloaders.
After a short period of repair, the three destroyers were quickly reloaded with torpedoes.
"Alright, now it's time for the timing of the front press. Martina said on the radio.
The battle has been fought so far, and Oarai has lost only one destroyer, while the opposite side has lost three destroyers. Although the destroyers of both sides are still equal in quantity, they are far inferior in quality.
Martina naturally will not let go of this opportunity, and with such a big advantage, she should decisively suppress a wave.
Now is the time for the landing of both sides, and this wave of suppression by Oarai can be said to be quite fatal. Now Jasmine Women's College will either give up the landing and let the armored department of Oarai Women's College take the lead. Either they had to confront Oarai's fleet head-on and forcibly drag it until the landing was complete.
"Baltimore, keep going. ”
After Martina's order, the Baltimore moved forward again.
However, the Baltimore will not enter the complex waters of the archipelago, and will only cruise outside the archipelago to provide fire support for Oarai's three destroyers.
Now that Oarai has a great advantage, there is no need to let the Baltimore go in and take risks, and seeking stability is the king at this time.
After the departure of the warships of the Ministry of Navigation, the task of protecting the landing ground fell to the Ministry of Oilai Aviation.
Thirty fighters of the Ministry of Aviation hovered about 3,000 meters above the landing site, ready to intercept approaching enemy aircraft.
As for the Baltimore, it doesn't have to be defended now. If Jasmine Women's Academy's fleet were to force the Baltimore, it would pay a heavy price whether it succeeded or not, and then the Oarai Aviation Department would be able to easily gain air supremacy and then bomb Jasmine Women's College's tanks and ships.
"Well, Betty, I'll discuss something with you. ”
It didn't take long for Martina's voice to be heard again on the radio.
"Dismissal! Don't try to calculate me, you guy!"
Betty didn't even think about it, so she refused.
"Don't be so ruthless, Bei~Ti~Sauce~"
Hearing Martina's sensual voice, Betty's hair stood on end.
"What the hell is going on!"
"Here's the thing, now there are only three destroyers left on the other side, I want to ask if you can force these three destroyers?" Martina paused, and then continued: "The torpedoes on these three destroyers are the only weapons that can cause damage to the Baltimore, as long as these three destroyers are killed, the Baltimore can sail into the archipelago openly, and even drive directly to the landing ground on the opposite side." ”
Jasmine Girls' College's Dedo-class light cruisers were also equipped with torpedoes, but they weren't as nimble as destroyers, and they weren't as comfortable navigating the archipelago as destroyers, so they couldn't attack the Baltimore on their faces.
Although Martina's words are very tempting, Betty is not such an easy person.
"Are you stupid for me, you know this, and the other side naturally knows that the aviation department of Jasmine Women's College will definitely focus on protecting these three destroyers. ”
"You just send out six AD-2 Sky Raiders, destroyers are not difficult targets to deal with, six AD-2s should be able to dive and throw in a wave. ”
Even so, Betty vetoed Martina's request.
"AD-2 is going to be used to bomb Jasmine Women's College's tanks, and it can't be consumed in this place. ”
"That's a pity, it's a great opportunity. Martina said with some regret.
In fact, the tactics of both sides are correct, and Martina's plan is also feasible, otherwise she would not have put it forward. It's just that Betty also has selfish intentions, and she is not willing to sacrifice the Ministry of Aviation and give up the opportunity to brush up points to the Ministry of Navigation.
"Still. Betty suddenly changed her mind. "If the fight starts for a while, you can divide into multiple lines and divide several planes to attack the destroyer. ”
"I love you to death, Betty-chan~"
"Get out, get out of here, get out of here!"
---------------I'm the dividing line---------------
The landing on Oarai's side was quickly completed, and the combat power of the Ministry of Aviation was liberated.
Betty did not hesitate, and immediately gave the order to cover the forward pressure of the three destroyers.
Now that the aviation forces of both sides are equal, who is sure that they can defeat whom, Betty's move can be said to have broken the deadlock at once.
Since it was not known what would happen to the Baltimore, Jasmine Women's College's landing craft did not land in the first place. It wasn't until the reconnaissance plane returned that the Baltimore had not entered the islands that Jasmine Women's College began to organize the landing.
This timing suppressed by Oarai can be said to be quite good, and now that Jasmine Women's Academy is just halfway through the landing, it is almost impossible to escape, so it can only be forced to drag on the top of the fleet to delay time.
The ships of Jasmine Women's College soon appeared, only this time instead of three destroyers, two Dedo-class cruisers.
Although the Calbdis and the Six-Headed Banshee could not defeat Baltimore, they still crushed the expulsion of the Upper Flame Sun class.
"Expelling the fleet, releasing smoke and retreating. ”
Martina also knew that her destroyers would be sent when they encountered these two light cruisers, so she decisively let the three destroyers choose to pull smoke and hide.
Being able to force out the two light cruisers on the opposite side, Martina was already very satisfied.
The Baltimore, which was wandering outside the archipelago, also turned its guns at this time, and with the assistance of an observer, aimed at the six-headed Banshee.
The Baltimore was the biggest reliance of the Oarai fleet, and Martina didn't expect anything from her three half-broken destroyers.
"Fire!"
Even with a 203mm gun, in the case of a salvo of nine guns, people can still feel a noticeable shaking of the hull.
With the flames of the muzzles, nine 203mm shells flew out and cut a graceful arc through the air, eventually landing near the Six-Headed Banshee.
The captain of the Six-Headed Banshee immediately realized that he was being targeted by Baltimore after seeing the surrounding water column, and instantly let the Six-Headed Banshee start an evasive maneuver.
Martina didn't want to kill the two light cruisers on the other side directly, so she had the Baltimore use the rain and dew gunnery, that is, launch an attack on the two light cruisers at the same time.
Although this will affect the accuracy of some shelling, the effect is also there, and the two light cruisers were beaten and ran away, and they did not dare to press forward on the side of Daxi.
