Chapter 44: Attacking the Storm (1)
The general strategy developed by the headquarters of the Navy is actually quite simple. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Three bread copied, besieged and besieged.
According to Su Yun's understanding, in every ten expeditionary operations in the past, there were at least eight times when the overall strategy could be condensed into these eight words, and the remaining two were either terrain really complicated to the extreme, or these eight words were used as the initial strategy but there were big twists and turns in the middle. This simple and effective method is often the best to use, and over the years, the deep sea has not been able to come up with any real effective countermeasures other than retreating and waiting for an opportunity to bite back - of course, if their backbite is strong enough, it is still possible for the naval headquarters to declare the expedition a failure.
The reason why it is not surrounded on all sides is that the fourth direction usually points directly to the center of the Pacific Ocean, which is difficult to support, but more importantly, it is to prevent the trapped beasts from fighting. The ultimate goal of the expedition is to seize supremacy of the target area, not to wipe out all deep-sea units, which is by no means an overnight thing. Give the deep sea a gap to break through, and they will generally choose to retreat when the general trend is gone, but if there is no way to survive...... Even the top ship lady in the whole Sakura Island will be quite difficult when facing the dying counterattack of thousands of times the number of deep-sea warships.
So far, the expedition has been going well.
Due to Su Yun's special status, he was assigned to the special task force and received direct dispatch from the commander of the Second Army on the Western Front, Hoshimi Yunqing, this special task force has a total of five people, namely Musashi, Taiho, Shinano, Hoshimi Sao and Su Yun.
The first three are the stubborn forces of the Second Army, each of which is inaccessible after coming to the M87 sea area, after all, the vast majority of the time for deep-sea operations are submarine operations, such as Musashi, a pure surface strike force that is rare in the first-line town guards, and the biggest role played by the Daiho and Shinano is currently the most advanced full-featured carrier-based aircraft in Sakurajima, with a combat radius of 300 kilometers to go up, enough to cross the two Z3 sea areas, and the daily task in peacetime is to collect and release aircraft on the command ship, and there is no need to launch at all……
Xingmei Sao is still the same, and she can't stop surfing in a safe sea every day. And after all, in this kind of high-risk sea area, with her personality, I am afraid that she will break once she attacks, although Xingmei Sao strongly asks to fight, but Xingmei Yunqing still did not arrange for this sister to follow other companies to take the initiative to attack, and gave her a mount every day to make up for the loss of favorability.
Su Yun was already powerless to complain about the brother and sister.
As for himself, he was not very idle, and since the Einsatzgruppen had few tasks, he followed the team that needed manpower to help. However, after all, the Amagi ship's outfit is not his own thing, and he can't act on his own, although according to Xing Meiyunqing's words, "It's okay to use it even if you give it to you", but after the first two days of experience, he still politely declined this overwhelm and put on his Zao ship's suit again. Even though the comparison of the two sets of ship outfits, the Zao, which is almost still in its initial form, is almost a primitive person carrying a burning stick, but it is basically enough when performing those surface strike missions, and with Su Yunkai's combat instinct, there was a lot of discussion about the shipwrecks who formed a team at the beginning, and everyone accepted this setting after a few days.
However, although he accepted various offensive missions, Su Yun never participated in any underwater sabotage operations against the main nest of the deep sea under the pretext that his diving ability was too poor—he did not have mercy on the deep sea again, but if he wanted to experience the feeling of the deep sea mother being wiped out again, he really couldn't do it anyway.
Today is October 9th, 20 days after Su Yun left the 24873 Town Guard Mansion.
After five days of continuous offensive operations, a total of 800 first- and second-line ships of the six group armies inflicted a devastating blow on the deep sea in the Z3 area. According to the battle results report, in this short five days, the total number of deep-sea warships destroyed was more than 17,400, including 8 deep-sea ships, 117 warships of various types grown from the "Qi" class juveniles, and as many as 49 deep-sea main nests were destroyed.
These results are not just statistics, they are also a huge wealth brought to Sakurajima by the deep sea, in the safety zone of the Z3 area, a large number of salvage ships and transport ships are busy working every day, and the ships leaving and going to the Z3 sea area are connected into an endless waterway. This passage across the three seas was escorted by the third group of warships that originally stayed in the Z1 sea area, with a total of thousands of people, and if Su Yun had come to participate in this deep-sea expedition as originally planned, he would now be unknown among these escort fleets.
Instead of being eligible for the largest encirclement and suppression event of this deep-sea expedition as it is now, go to the central area of the Z3 sea area and challenge the three pillars of the deep-sea pillars.
The "棲" class is a deep-sea unit with unlimited potential. When they were first born, they were as petite as the larvae that Su Yun had captured, and they were not much different from ordinary deep-sea larvae except for the color of their eyes, however, when more than 90% of the deep-sea larvae could only stay at the level of destroyers for the rest of their lives, they were able to break through the limitations and carry out uncontrolled evolution.
From the "Qi" class larvae, to the "Qi" class destroyer, to the "Qi" class cruiser, and then to the branch of the "Qi" class battleship and the "Qi" class aircraft carrier, generally speaking, here is the end of the evolution of ordinary deep-sea larvae, but for the "Qi" class, their evolution has just begun. After becoming a top-level battleship, the "Qiang" class will look for an area rich in energy, occupy the entire area alone, occupy the resources of the entire deep sea main nest as a unit, and then silently strengthen itself, constantly becoming bigger and stronger without restraint.
After a long time, when they break out of the cocoon and become butterflies and wake up again, they will become deep-sea ships, which will be the final force of the deep-sea, with the size of hundreds of deep-sea battleships, extremely large vitality, terrifying firepower and overwhelming air power. For a long time, humanity could recall the fear of being dominated by a deep-sea ship, until the advent of the orbital strike weapon, which was pressed to the ground and rubbed......
At the beginning of the deep-sea expedition, the M87 reef was swallowed up and replaced by a standard deep-sea ship, and even the humanoid self-propelled weapon arsenal Musashi could not cause effective damage to it in a short period of time.
And the Deep Sea Ship is the next evolutionary target of the Deep Sea Ship.
This evolution directly caused a conceptual change in the deep sea of the "Deep" class, and the Deep-Sea Ship did not simply become larger and stronger than the Deep-Sea Ship, but formed a huge deep-sea gathering area, spreading out to the surroundings in a radial shape. At this time, the "Qiang" class has become a higher level of existence, it represents the entire gathering area, it is anywhere in this gathering area, and any deep sea in the gathering area is branded with it, it is the deep sea itself. In the Z3 sea, all non-wild deep-sea warship groups, the final orders for all their actions, were given by Tsuki.
According to reliable information, there are three Yakhime in the Z3 Sea, namely the battleship Yakhime 8, the Empty Mother Yakita 9, and the ultimate target Shine Night Queen, according to the strength level of the Dawn Queen, the full name is Shine Night Lady X.
In today's Z3 Sea, the range of activity of the deep sea has been compressed into a square space of 30x30 nautical miles, and somewhere underwater in this space, there are three deep-sea princesses and their main force of the deep-sea race.
And what we have to solve today is the weakest of them, the battleship.
At 10 a.m., a rare sunny day.
Xingmei Yunqing's command ship glided slowly at a low altitude of 50 meters, and the waves below that were magnetically dispersed formed layers of waves, and the deck was empty, only Musashi was debugging the turret, and Su Yun was standing in front of the fence looking into the distance. As a member of the special operations team, today is the first official attack mission that Su Yun has received, so he has not mixed and matched with other companies, and because the strength of the Zao is indeed not enough, after ending the small fights in the previous few days and really entering the attack mode, he finally put on the Amagi fully armed ship uniform again.
The special task force Dafeng and Shinano are already on the sea, and are currently assembling and escorting 5 nautical miles ahead, Su Yun looked around, and there were dense crowds of people gathered on the wide sea, they were nearly 100 participating ships, and almost 70% of the main forces of the Second Army were gathered. It was the first time he had seen such a huge scene, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Among these ship girls lined up, there is an anomaly dragging huge waves, who is happily carrying out a dazzling figure-8 spiraling position, which is naturally not mentioned by Xingmei Sao......
As long as she puts on the ship's uniform, this girl can't stop for a moment unless it's broken.
At this moment, about 10 nautical miles ahead, there was a faint light and a gentle tremor after a gentle tremor from underwater. That area was the area where the battleship Suhime was located, and the sea surface was occupied by the Combined Forces of the Six Groups 48 hours ago, and since then it has continued to drop depth charges on the bottom of the sea, and it has continued to this day.
It is estimated that more than 11,000 barrels of 500-pound bombs were dropped in an area of less than 10 nautical miles in those 48 hours. These depth charges have been set up with a bottoming explosion function, which has blown the seabed in the sea area to pieces. Although there was no obvious deflagration in sight, the air was still filled with the pervasive smell of gunsmoke.
This is a shallow sea area, and there is a huge submarine volcano below, with a water depth of about 2,500 meters, and after this unexpensive carpet bombing, I am afraid that it will almost blow up to 2,800 meters.
Su Yun couldn't help but feel heartache.
All the buckets thrown down are money, and only Sakurajima's deep-sea expedition with the power of the country dares to make such a big move......
But depth charges are not the protagonist of today, after all, they are only a prelude.
At 12 noon, the bombing stopped.
A total of 565 members of the six armies who participated in the offensive began to march to the sea area of Z3, 57.56 and 61.98 coordinates from three different directions. These ships are different, of which less than half of the Sakurajima native ships are ships, and the rest are foreign ships, from hundreds of countries around the world, which is the ultimate energy that can fight at the same time in this expeditionary force operation.
At 12:22, the rendezvous was completed, and this sea area with a length and width of 4 nautical miles was full of ships ready to go. Su Yun had already left the command ship, and he was mixed in with the 700 people, he did not belong to any company, and the communication channel was directly connected to Xing Meiyun.
At 12:25, the voice of the commander-in-chief of the 57th deep-sea expeditionary force, Aoi Yanagawa sounded in the communicators of nearly 100 channels on the field.
"I declare that the submarine operation is now commencing, and I wish you all good luck. ”
An order was given, and the hosts responded. Hundreds of capital ships dived into the sea one after another, and the originally lively sea surface instantly became empty, leaving only the boundless rippling waves.
Su Yun crossed the sea and dived deeper, he felt like a drop of water in the ocean.
There were people everywhere, and there were a large number of friendly symbols in the radar, and Su Yun could even see the same kind of people drilling down like swimming fish with the naked eye, the sea water was scorching and anxious, and the bottom was extremely dark, as if it was a monster's mouth. However, in this case, no one is alone, no one will back down, everyone will just rush to charge.
For the first blood!
……
The water is 500 meters deep, the surroundings are plunged into darkness, and the sea is clean.
……
The water was 1,000 meters deep, and the surroundings fell into dead silence, only the green cursor displayed on the surrounding radar accompanied Su Yun.
……
At a depth of 1,500 meters, the water here has become turbid, and countless explosions of sand and dust have been raised from the seabed, forming a thick and impermeable isolation zone, and the ship's searchlights can only shine at most 20 meters away.
……
At a depth of 2,000 meters, the water is formed into oars, and in addition to the sand and dust from the explosion, there are also large amounts of deep-sea pollutants, fragments of the corpses of deep-sea warships, and countless seabed rocks that have been blown into pieces.
……
The water depth is 2500 meters.
The battle began.
The sound propagated in the sea water with extremely high efficiency, and any faint sound would be amplified countless times, and when Su Yun felt a dull roar that seemed to come from all directions, this huge war began. At this time, any underwater sonar has lost its meaning, and everyone can only rely on the detection distance of deep-sea radar for more than a few meters, and fight their way through this doomed seabed......
Su Yun continued to dive, as if he saw a pair of eyes looking at him from the bottom of the water.
Artillery roared......
Thunder roars......
Missile roar......
