Chapter 50: The Turtle Can't Shrink Out
The two patrols have a total of 6 destroyers, which already accounts for about 10% of the total strength of the 9th Fleet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf it can be eaten away by one raid after another, it won't take more than a month for this fleet to be destroyed.
But in fact, this kind of thing can't happen.
After the successive losses of two patrols, the command of the 9th fleet was already on alert. Especially when they learned that the attack was on an unknown type of destroyer, carrying 9 unknown types of mobile suits, they immediately realized that this opponent was not simple.
And anyone with a discerning eye can see that a destroyer can either carry 5 mobile suits or 10 planes, and it is impossible to design such a strange number as 9 planes, so the other party must have a more mysterious mobile suit. Given that the mysterious battleship had suffered zero damage in both engagements, the 9th Fleet brass had reason to believe that the 10th Mobile Suit that had not appeared for a long time must have been a more powerful pilot, and that he did not appear only because it was unnecessary.
Given that the destroyer and the mobile suit on board are all painted in aqua blue, which is the same color as the "Storm" mobile suit WS, the top brass of the 9th Fleet has not suspected that this matter has something to do with Fengyu. It's just that this kind of evidence that is too obviously related to the "storm" makes them wonder if the new EU is dealing with them under the guise of Fengyu. After all, it is not the "Storm" that has taken advantage of them that hates the 9th Fleet the most, but the new European Union, which suffered a big loss in the GS5 battle.
The most important thing is that as Fengyu's fame becomes more and more famous, his old car "Tropical High Pressure" has become one of his signatures. The 9th Fleet didn't know that the "Tempest" had 1,200 times the speed of light, so it simply thought that Fengyu would not take such a slow destroyer.
In fact, there are some problems with NO's internal communication, if they can release the battle video of the first AN Barrier Battle to the fleets that have fallen into their actual control in time, at least the top brass of the 9th Fleet will be able to recognize those unknown models of mobile suits as belonging to Awa-ker, that is, Fengyu's comrades.
NO is a powerful organization, and it is necessary to give enough confidence to those careerists who have taken refuge in the organization, that is, to report good news and not bad news. Once these powerful generals of various countries who hold fleets know that their own fleets have actually failed miserably in the hands of Awa-ker's newly formed fleet, it will inevitably have an unfavorable impact on the organization, such as breaking away from NO's control, such as grabbing power. Anything that happened was unacceptable, so they chose to conceal it and cover up as much as possible the information about the first Barrier Battle.
It just so happened that in order not to attract the attention of the military of various countries, Awa-Ker also wanted to deal with this battle coldly, so the winners and losers invariably remained silent about this battle, which directly led to the 9th Fleet, which was short of intelligence, miscalculated the opponent in front of them, otherwise they would be more vigilant.
In short, as long as the Mobile Suit WS does not appear on the battlefield for a day, the 9th Fleet will not believe that this matter is Fengyu's doing, and the new European Union, which knows nothing, will inexplicably carry a black cauldron.
According to the testimonies of the survivors of the two patrols, the top management of the 9th Fleet judged that the nine mobile suits were close to the strength of the quasi-ace, and although the performance of the aircraft may be slightly inferior to the ace, the aggressiveness displayed in battle has reached that level. If you want to accurately define their level, it should be the high-level pilot between the elite pilot and the quasi-ace.
It can be said that the judgment of the 9th Fleet is basically accurate, after defeating the second patrol, Hong Juxing and Valkyrie have broken through 50 hits and reached the level of high-level pilots, and the other seven are slightly behind them.
In terms of betting, the two men were tied in the second fight, with 10.5 drops each. But because Hong took the lead in the first fight, Valkyrie still lagged behind him in the overall score, and he must continue to abide by the agreement not to hook up with other men, in fact, he is not allowed to harass Fengyu.
Valkyrie was naturally not happy to face this result, so she strongly urged Fengyu to arrange the next battle as soon as possible at the post-war summary meeting, the sooner the better, and the larger the scale, the better.
Fengyu chose to ignore her request. It is not impossible to realize Valkyrie's wish, as long as it is a direct attack on the base of the 9th Fleet. Both Fengyu and the Tempest can do this, the problem is that a few of these young pilots will come back alive. The "Quasi-Ace Squad" plan is not to seek death, but to improve the actual combat ability and experience of these awakened pilots as much as possible within a controllable range.
As for the Viking Girl's bet with Hong Superstar, it was just a shortcut to avoid trouble for Feng Yu, and it didn't affect him to make the right decision.
At present, it is not Fengyu who will decide whether the "quasi-ace team" plan can continue smoothly, but how the 9th Fleet is prepared to deal with this somewhat inexplicable crisis.
The 9th Fleet is undoubtedly a mature and pragmatic veteran first-line fleet, and in the face of this unknown enemy, they did not rashly make attack orders, but stopped all small-scale sailing operations and completely reduced their forces to return to their bases. At the same time, a large number of high-speed reconnaissance ships were dispatched to patrol around, trying to understand more about the opponent this time.
This is the last thing Fengyu wants to see. Even if the "Tempest" stealth sneak attack, there is not much chance of catching up with those uncertain high-speed reconnaissance ships. And the long wait didn't mean anything to the "Tempest" far away from the base except to waste time and supplies, if it wasn't for the rush to train the young awakened pilot, why would Fengyu pull the team to WG1.
In contrast, the 9th Fleet, which is fighting at home, can afford to spend time, and as the garrison fleet of WG1, as long as they do not receive pressure from above, they can drag it out for as long as they want.
After two days of this, Fengyu has already begun to consider abandoning the battle in WG1. It's a pity to just give up, and the process of going from WG1 to other star fields to find other combat targets also takes time. If there is a practical solution, he would prefer to fight the 9th Fleet.
At this time, Monica, the ship's staff officer and intelligence officer, made a suggestion, "Aren't we a 'pirate' fleet, do what pirates should do, and the 9th fleet will not be able to continue to shrink." ”
Feng Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he shook his head again, "The solution is good, but I really don't want to drag those innocent civilian merchant ships into the water, and I guess the other directors don't approve of this." ”
Monica smiled slyly, "Then it depends on what we're attacking." There are always merchant ships that we can attack freely and at the same time keep the 9th Fleet very tight. ”
