Lexington and the others maintained an anti-submarine single horizontal formation and advanced towards the main battlefield of Island C, because this operation underestimated the threat below the sea surface, and Lexington now felt that the uneasy feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, she could only endure these uneasiness, focusing on manipulating the carrier-based bombers and fighters that had gone to the main battlefield, and cooperating with her sister in the battle for air supremacy.

In fifteen minutes, the First Fleet of Twilight Island reached the waters near Island C, and in their field of vision, the deep harbor had been suppressed by their own aerial firepower.

Lexington saw that the partners of the Second Fleet had already taken the lead in blocking the port area of Island C to the sea, but the blockade line mainly relied on carrier-based aircraft after gaining air supremacy, and there were still an unknown number of deep-sea expulsions and deep-sea light patrols rushing from that deep-sea port.

After the two fleets converged, Lexington and Helena talked about their encounter with a deep-sea submarine, and Helena smiled wryly, saying:

"We also encountered submarines, but I was equipped with [Modified Sonar], so we didn't have any big trouble, but if we want to break through the blockade line composed of deep-sea submarines and attack the deep-sea port area in one fell swoop, with our current anti-submarine means, it's too difficult, you see that V-shaped strait, that bottommost narrow area, where there are twelve deep-sea submarines. ”

After Helena finished speaking, Lexington fell into deep thought, although she and her sister can always use aerial firepower to cover the firepower and directly attack the interior of the island port area, but looking at the port area in front of her, there is only a narrow entrance, she has conducted reconnaissance before, and she also knows that this C island is full of reefs in addition to this narrow entrance, even if she and others are ship mothers, these reefs are dangerous enough, so if you want to capture C island, you can only enter from this V-shaped strait.

However, now Helena has found out that there are twelve deep-sea submarines in the narrowest part of this V-shaped entrance, that is, two full-scale deep-sea submarine teams, so many submarines, rushing into it is probably going to die.

Lexington understands that this is now the last step, as long as the submarine underwater blockade is cleared, all that remains of Island C is some deep-sea expulsion and deep-sea light cruise, and with its own firepower, it is only a matter of time before it is eliminated.

Moreover, she and Saratoga were bombing and found that there were not many heavy patrols left in this deep-sea port area, and as for the other main forces such as deep-sea light mothers, deep-sea aircraft carriers, deep-sea battleships, and deep-sea battlecruises, they were completely missing, Lexington thought, I am afraid that the most elite fleet on Island C has all been sunk by his own side a few days ago.

However, even if the current island C seems to be at your fingertips, it only looks like it is within reach.

As long as the two fully staffed deep-sea submarine squadrons blocking this V-shaped estuary are not wiped out, it will probably be difficult for thousands of troops to enter Island C.

At this moment, Pinghai, who had been in charge of the vigilance work, was full of doubts, and she reported while rushing to Lexington's side:

"Dozens of unidentified carrier-based aircraft units are approaching us, only ten nautical miles northwest of us!"

"Ten nautical miles?" Lexington chuckled in her heart, she immediately released the remaining four BTDs that had not yet been released, and flew in a northwesterly direction, and then she immediately said to Helena:

"Inform Gaga, don't just focus on bombing, save ammunition, and ensure the safety of our air supremacy, remember, this expedition is not just to take one C island, but to capture all three islands, I don't want to disappoint the commander again!"

"Understood!" Helena nodded, and she turned to pass the order while Pinghai continued to investigate.

Lexington was multitasking, cooperating with his sister in the bombing of the deep-sea expulsion and deep-sea light cruises in the deep-sea harbor area, while maneuvering four BTDs to meet the uninvited guests.

The two teams of carrier-based aircraft met in the air five minutes later, Lexington shared the field of vision through the carrier-based aircraft, she looked at the other side There were at least twenty SBD Dreadnoughts, these are anti-submarine carrier-based aircraft, is the other party a light aircraft carrier?

However, at the critical juncture of the battle, when it was no longer clear whether it was friend or foe, Lexington flew in a V-shaped sequence, formed a passive defensive posture, and intercepted in front of those carrier-based aircraft.

At the same time, Raider and Brooklyn were on their way, and after the two of them left the First Ship Niang Academy, they did not graduate and leave, but took a long vacation and traveled for a few years, in the intervening years. They have traveled from south to north, and they have incomparably rich experience in actual combat, and their own ship equipment is naturally very good.

Brooklyn found that the Raider's carrier-based aircraft and the opponent's four carrier-based aircraft had formed a confrontation through the [Standard Control Radar: 40% Correction to the Air] that she had just replaced not long ago, and she said helplessly:

"We've been spotted in advance, Raider, don't get into a conflict with each other, retreat first. ”

"Okay, but you have to reimburse you for this fuel, you don't know it's very fuel-guzzling. The Raider pouted, but pulled back the carrier-based aircraft.

Lexington breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't know which ship these carrier-based planes belonged to, since the other party had chosen to retreat, it may have been unintentional to break in with wine, but Pinghai suddenly shouted:

"The number of opponents has been discovered, there are only two people, no, dozens of nautical miles behind the two of them, two deep-sea fleet reinforcements were found, and there are four light mothers!What should I do?"

"Deep-sea reinforcements? Oops, it may have come from Island B!" Lexington secretly said that it was not good, their original battle plan was not like this, they originally wanted someone to be responsible for monitoring the movements of the two islands of AB, but because they encountered deep-sea submarines, they were worried that the Second Fleet would be in danger, and Helena and the others may have seen that this deep-sea port was at their fingertips, so they also gave up the original insurance plan.

Now the drawbacks of the adventure have finally been revealed, and the two islands of AB have indeed received reinforcements from the deep sea.

Lexington secretly blamed herself, but also knew that now was not the time to think about this, so she immediately recalled all her carrier-based aircraft from the port area of Island C, and then she shouted to Walkland:

"Walkland, go and inform Gaga, now the bombing mission here is handed over to her, and I will support the two shipwrecks who accidentally broke into the battlefield. ”

"Understood. Wackland nodded, then left the team thinking in the direction of Saratoga.

Lexington began to replenish the battle-damaged carriers, although the carrier-based aircraft can be regenerated, but each regenerated carrier-based aircraft consumes a large amount of aluminum, which is why the aircraft carrier lady will try to avoid her carrier-based aircraft being sunk by the anti-aircraft artillery of the deep-sea light patrol during the operation, because as long as a carrier-based aircraft is sunk, it means that more aluminum will be consumed, which is an additional consumption for the town guard.

After replenishing the carrier-based aircraft, it was maintained to a full strength of seventy, and then she began to replenish the ammunition for these carrier-based aircraft.

Now that the situation is urgent, Lexington can't care about his own resources, and the aluminum he brought out this time is to ensure the consumption of three days of combat, that is, to supplement the 70 carrier-based aircraft she is carrying now nine times.

Lexington understands that because of his own negligence this time, he was not able to predict the reinforcements from the deep sea in advance, which led to the current situation being a bit grim.

If you can't quickly attack C to the deep-sea port at this time, then, as long as these two deep-sea reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid that you will be caught in the predicament of being flanked by the front and back at that time, and the other party's twelve deep-sea submarines are always a boulder pressed on Lexington's heart.

At this moment, she could only pray that the two shipwives who had accidentally broken into the ship could wait until their carrier-based aircraft arrived, and as for sending others over, it was impossible.

Lexington knew that the assault on the V-shaped port entrance was now beyond the reach of everyone, and that the constant stream of deep-sea light cruises and deep-sea expulsions were barely effectively annihilated by the strong firepower of Richelieu and Bismarck, but only temporarily.

It's just that it has reached the level where it will not be overwhelmed by the unknown number of deep-sea expulsions and deep-sea light cruises, but now it is only consuming the number of deep-sea on Island C, and if you can't enter the deep-sea port area of Island C in time, you can't prevent the emergence of an endless stream of deep-sea fleets, so that you and others will be consumed alive by the deep-sea sea.

Lexington knows very well that every island occupied by the deep sea, if you want to completely prevent the recurrence of the deep sea fleet, the only way to cut off the source of the deep sea fleet at one time can be done, just like the C island in front of you, the source of the birth of the deep sea is inside the port area.

However, what is this source, Lexington and Saratoga have repeatedly reconnoitred from high altitudes, but they can't see through anything, as if there is an unknown force blocking all exploration.

Lexington speculated that only by crossing the V-shaped Strait and actually entering the interior of the deep harbor area could we see the true face of this source.

However, now he and the others may face the dilemma of being attacked by the deep sea before and after, and the attack of the four deep-sea light carriers makes Lexington feel that it may not be so easy to ensure his air supremacy.

Therefore, Lexington must save the two shipwives who mistakenly entered the battlefield no matter what, and now she has to fight for every opportunity to strengthen her own strength.

Now that this operation has made waves, as the secretary ship of the Twilight Guard, she must minimize this wave, and for the sake of Minato, and for the sake of the person who has been waiting for the news of their victory, she must bring her sisters back safely, not be embarrassed like last time.

Lexington at this moment, her heart is extremely firm, she has never understood why so many ship girls went back to find the Admiral, until now, she somewhat understood, maybe only when the ship girls really have the port area they want to protect, at that time, even if the destroyer is weak, it will be extremely strong!

Lexington looked at Sigsby, who was still fighting even if she was broken, and the courage in her heart at the moment burned like a flame.

She steered seventy carrier-based aircraft, pounced in the northwest direction, looked at the sea level in the distance, and secretly swore:

Commander, we will surely carve victory on the horizon and bring back the supreme glory for you!
