About 200 kilometers east of the 41.2nd detachment, the aircraft carrier of the Nuland Navy's "Endeavour" fleet.

When the communications staff officer hurriedly ran over, Tian Shi glanced at his watch, and it was about to be 11:45.

Extrapolating from the time, the group of attack planes that set off one after another after 10 o'clock should have flown over the 41st Task Force of Liangxia long ago.

As expected, the communications staff sent the good news that the attack had been successful.

That's right, good news!

Sp quickly glanced at it and handed the message to Tian Shi.

Although the spoken English is not very good, Tian Shi is from a professional class, and his foreign language skills are not bad. Besides, the messages are typed out by the machine, not as scribbled as handwritten.

A second attack group, led by Major Dutt, has spotted Liang Xia's 41st Task Force.

However, the report only mentions the discovery of two ocean-going cruisers designed to provide anti-aircraft cover for aircraft carriers, and the attack on these two cruisers.

Where is the aircraft carrier?

When the communications staff officer reported, Spu's face was very ugly.

Tian Shi was also embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Spu listened to his suggestion and had already bet on everything, and now even Tian Shi didn't dare to guarantee that he would definitely be able to kill Bai Zhizhan.

In fact, Tian Shi, like Sp, bet his life on this battle.

A few months ago, after arriving at Zhenbao Harbor by submarine, the most important thing Tian Shi did was not to introduce the opponents he was about to encounter on the battlefield to his colleagues in the Nuland Navy, that is, Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen of the Liang Xia Navy, but through Sp and Hal and others, he did his best to persuade the top brass of the Nuland Navy, and even the leaders of the federal authorities, to correct an obvious mistake.

Tried to defeat the Liangxia navy in a battle and achieve a decisive victory.

Before Tian Shi's arrival, this was a very popular view in the Nuland Navy, supported by many senior generals, including Niz and Hal.

The reason is this: the Nuland Navy has five fleet aircraft carriers and two small aircraft carriers, while the Liangxia Navy has only four fleet aircraft carriers and one small aircraft carrier that can fight.

The key is that the initiative to fight or not to fight is in the hands of the Nuland Navy.

If you want to talk about it, you have to count Tian Shi and others. That is, the Nuland Navy can have a more comprehensive understanding of the Liangxia Navy through the narrow navy.

On the contrary, the Liangxia Navy did not know much about the Nuland Navy.

Not to mention that in this war, even in the last war, the number of battles between the Liangxia Navy and the Newland Navy is only a handful.

With so many advantages, what reason is there to worry about not winning?

As a result, in the months leading up to Tian Shi's arrival, the Nuland Navy was making battle plans around the goal of defeating the Liang Xia Navy in one fell swoop.

At least in the first naval battle, the main force of the Liang Xia Navy, that is, the aircraft carrier task force, must be annihilated.

To put it simply, it is to throw out a huge bait and let the Liang Xia Navy dispatch all the aircraft carrier task forces, and then annihilate them all in one fell swoop.

In fact, this is to emulate the Liang Xia Navy.

At the end of last year, the Liang Xia Navy passed the first battle, and in just 3 days, it overcame the seemingly powerful narrow navy and won the victory in one fell swoop.

But the question is, can tactical things follow suit?

Although the Nuland Navy is also preparing for the big war and has been actively working hard for more than ten years, fundamentally speaking, it is far inferior to the Liangxia Navy.

The key is that the Nuland Navy does not have generals like Bai Zhizhan and Liu Xiangzhen.

Fortunately, not all of the Nuland naval officers thought they could win the battle in one fell swoop.

Among those who oppose it is Spu.

It should be said that it was the disagreement that arose over this matter that brought him to Hal's attention, and Hal introduced him to the already up-and-coming Niz, thus gaining the opportunity to enter the Guia Fleet Command and becoming a senior staff officer of the Fleet Command.

Interestingly, at that time, in order to defeat the Liangxia Navy in one fell swoop, Spu and Hal almost got into a fight.

It was this incident that made Tian Shi feel that Spu was more reliable.

Since then, Tian Shi has also expressed his views through Spu.

Anyone who wants to defeat the Liang Xia Navy in one fell swoop, that is, the idea of a quick victory, will only bring a crushing defeat, and even cause the Nuland Navy to suffer.

In the past half century, the Liangxia navy has only been defeated once, that is, in the last major war.

Strictly speaking, it is not a defeat, because at the end of the war, the Liangxia Navy was still the largest and strongest navy in the world.

After the war, the alliance group also had to admit that the Liangxia Empire was not a defeated country.

Besides, the Liang Xia Empire would never have any illusions about the Nuland Federation, and it would definitely not send the opportunity to raid the Nuland Navy.

Before the start of the war, placing all the main forces in the Southern Fleet was actually a flaw that was deliberately exposed, and it was a bait for the Sayi Imperial State to take the bait.

If it was the Liangxia Empire that fired the first shot, the Bran Kingdom and the Newland Federation would have already sent troops to the war.

Occupying the moral high ground makes it impossible for the Bran Kingdom and the Newland Federation to find a reason to enter the war, and gain enough time to defeat the most threatening Narrow Imperial State, not to mention the loss of a dozen or so old battleships, even if it is to catch the entire Southern Fleet, it is very cost-effective.

Perhaps when the plan was formulated, the Liang Xia Navy included all four aircraft carriers in the list of losses.

If this is the case, the Liang Xia Navy is probably waiting for the Nuland Navy to go to a decisive battle.

One more aircraft carrier?

At the end of last year, the Sagi Navy dispatched six fleet aircraft carriers and two small aircraft carriers, while the Liang Xia Navy used only six fleet aircraft carriers.

The Nuland Navy's extra fleet aircraft carrier cannot change the strategic balance.

It's not hard to deny other people's opinions, but it's not so easy to come up with your own, or better, opinions.

Before Tian Shi's arrival, Spu also thought that he could not defeat the Liang Xia navy in one fell swoop, but he was never able to convince Hal and Niz because he did not come up with a new and more feasible point of view, that is, how to fight after the war.

It must be admitted that what Spark lacks is practical experience.

Tian Shi's arrival just made up for this shortcoming.

The key is that Tian Shi brought a set of feasible tactics.

To put it simply, it's just one word: drag.

The advantage of the Liang Xia Navy is actually the strength of the army, and with sufficient pre-war preparations, it entered the state of war in advance and gained a huge advantage in strength. By next year, this advantage will become even more prominent, even to the point of crushing all the Western powers, including the Nuland Federation.

On the contrary, the Newland Federation has the spatial advantage of its geographical location.

As long as it can hold out in the Guia for 2 to 3 years, the Nuland Federation will be able to use the mobilized war strength to fight against the Liangxia Empire.

Tian Shi is also very honest.

In his words: Only by ensuring that the Newland Federation is undefeated can there be a chance to free the Narrow Empire from the clutches of the Liangxia Empire in the armistice negotiations.

If the Nuland Federation is defeated, then the Narrow Empire will never be able to turn over.

The implication is that the narrow-minded soldiers represented by Tian Shi are still waiting for the Newland Federation to restore their country.

Exchanging space for time is obviously not a passive defense, let alone a step-by-step retreat, and it is necessary to use the forces in hand in a planned manner.

To say, Guia is actually not enough to stop the Liang Xia Navy for 2 to 3 years.

The key is to consume the strength of the Liang Xia Navy as much as possible.

Then, we have to fight a war of attrition with the Liang Xia Navy after the war!
