"Your Excellency Commander, the 1st BYG ship-by-ship detachment has been completely destroyed, except for the three heavily damaged destroyers who withdrew from the battlefield ahead of schedule, the remaining destroyers have been sunk by the Chinese!" Chief of Staff of the Combined U.S.-British Fleet Edward. Lieutenant General Abor said with an ugly face.

Although the losses were all a few destroyers, which was nothing for the strength of the entire Combined Fleet, it was not a good start, which affected the morale of the troops a lot. The Yīn Shadow, who had been defeated by the Chinese Navy twice before, had some more coming to mind!

"It's just the loss of some destroyers, it doesn't matter! Commodore Reims reported that the heavy cruisers of the Chinese had appeared, and it was estimated that the main fleet of the Chinese was not far to the south. In this way, the main force of the Chinese expeditionary fleet has indeed arrived in the waters near the Bahamas. This is good news for us. I believe that when the main fleet of the Chinese appears, it will be time for us to fight a decisive battle with them and completely defeat them! "William. Admiral Benson said confidently. For the combined fleet of the United States and Great Britain, which has more than two hundred ships large and small, the loss of ten destroyers is really nothing!

"Your Excellency, Commander, there will be no danger if the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment is going?" Edward. Lieutenant General Obol said with some concern. If the main force of the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet was really near the heavy cruisers, then the six battle cruisers of the first row cruiser detachment would definitely suffer heavy losses once they encountered the main force of the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet!

"I have already instructed Rear Admiral Henry that in the event of a encounter with the main forces of the Chinese Navy, they will retreat! In addition, the main fleet also immediately accelerated to 5 knots, speeding towards the southern seas. We will not give the Chinese a chance! "William. Admiral Benson said. Now they are only a little more than 100 kilometers away from the sea area where the two sides are fighting, and if they sail at a speed of 5 knots, they can reach it in four or five hours at most. At that time, if the main force of the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet dares to appear, it will be time for the combined fleet of the United States and Britain to engage in a decisive battle with the Chinese Navy!

"Your Excellency the Commander!" See William. Admiral Benson was so sure that Edward. Lieutenant General Abor had no choice but to say no more. In his heart, he also believed that even if the Chinese Navy had any tricks, in the face of absolute strength, every victory would be in vain, and the final victory would definitely belong to the combined fleet of the United States and Britain. The ratio of capital ships on both sides is as high as three to one, which gives the generals of the US Navy a lot of confidence!

Received William. After Admiral Benson's order, the six battle cruisers of the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment of the Combined Fleet of the United States and Britain accelerated towards the target sea area. The U.S. Navy's battle cruisers were completely imitations of the British Navy's battle cruisers, and their basic capabilities and even appearance were almost the same. The six battle cruisers of the Cruiser Detachment were three imitations of the 'Invincible class', the North Carolina class of the battle cruisers and three imitations of the 'Indefatigable class', and the South Dakota class of the battle cruisers, the battle cruisers, both of which were armed with four twin 305 mm guns and had a top speed of 25 knots. At this moment, the question bank is only a little more than 50 kilometers away from the warring sea, and it only takes an hour and a half to reach it if it sails south at a speed of 20 knots.

In the sea area two hundred kilometers southeast of Carter Island, the NC light cruisers of the 4th Light Cruiser Detachment of the US Navy are turning, intending to flee the battlefield. However, the Chinese Navy's six 'Jianghe-class, heavy cruisers' have already rushed up, and the three triple 210-mm main guns on these heavy cruisers have been aimed at the 10 'Omaha-class, light cruisers' of the U.S. Navy's 4th Light Cruiser Detachment. At the same time, the Chinese Navy's forward formation, which had been fleeing before, also adjusted its course and accelerated to intercept the 4th Light Cruiser Detachment of the US Navy.

"General, the Chinese have caught up! My God! The speed of the Chinese light cruisers was at least 32 knots! We can't outrun them! "The captain of the U.S. Navy's 'Chester,' light cruiser exclaimed. The U.S. Navy's 'Omaha-class, light cruisers' maximum speed is only 29 knots, while the Chinese' warships of the same class run at a speed of more than 30 knots, how can they not be shocked?

"Damn, turn, get rid of them!" Brigadier General Reims ordered anxiously. The forward formations of the Chinese Navy did not frighten him, what really scared him was those six heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy. Against the six heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy, he had no chance of winning at all!

Even though the U.S. Navy's 4th light cruiser formation continued to accelerate and get rid of the pursuit of the Chinese Navy, half an hour later, the six heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy's Jianghe-class still managed to catch up with them and attack!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "'Liaohe, the heavy cruiser opened fire first, and the muzzles of the three triple 210-mm guns shone with orange-red flames, and nine of them weighed more than one hundred and eighty! The armor-piercing shells whistled and flew towards the battleships of the 1st cruiser detachment of the US Navy, and the other five heavy cruisers followed suit and fired at the ten light cruisers of the US Navy one after another!

"Boom!" A shell exploded more than 100 meters to the left of the U.S. Navy light cruiser Chester, splashing a column of water on the surface of the sea, and the water splashed and smashed on the surface of the sea, making a crackling sound like a torrential rain. The splash of water even wet the clothes of the US Navy officers and men on the side of the light cruiser 'Chester!

"How could those yellow-skinned monkeys hit so accurately?" Brigadier General Lance shouted, a hint of horror in his voice. At a distance of eight thousand meters, the Chinese Navy's first Qi shè was able to hit such a level, which is indeed amazing enough!

"General, General Henry asked us to report the exact location, they are speeding up!" A communications officer reported to Brigadier General Reims.

"Admonitor Sù Henry, we are now under heavy attack from the Chinese, who have dispatched six 'river-class, heavy cruisers, our' Omaha-class, light cruisers simply cannot resist. If they can't get there as soon as possible, they may have to collect the bodies for us! Brigadier General Reims said. Originally, he wanted to take advantage, but he didn't expect to put himself in it now!

"Yes, General!" The communications officer replied. A few minutes later, the communications officer reported to Commodore Reims that the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment would arrive in an hour and a half. This annoyed Commodore Reims, who did not know if he could hold out for an hour and a half under the onslaught of the six heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy. After all, the ten destroyers of the previous G ship-by-ship detachment were all wiped out before they didn't hold out for even an hour. And whether the 1st cruiser detachment will be more lucky, it is very difficult to say!

"Boom!" An explosion rang out. At 10:32, a 210-mm shell hit the light cruiser USS Birmingham, of the 4th Light Cruiser Detachment of the US Navy. The shell hit the bow of the light cruiser Birmingham, and the deck with a thickness of only 38 mm could not carry the 210 mm armor-piercing shell at all, and it was blown straight out of a large hole!

From the moment the light cruiser Birmingham was hit, the warships of the 4th light cruiser of the US Navy were constantly shot. Even if the U.S. Navy's 'Omaha-class' light cruisers have a displacement of more than 5,700 tons, they can't withstand such a blow! Armor-piercing shells of 210 mm caliber, it will be enough to tear them to shreds!

"Fight back! Fight back now! "Commodore Reims shouted like madness from the bridge of the light cruiser Chester. If this continues, maybe before the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment arrives, their 4th Light Cruiser Detachment will be all over!

The ten American light cruisers counterattacked, but it was very difficult for their three twin 152-mm guns to hit targets eight thousand meters away and tear through the armor of the heavy cruisers. The ten light cruisers of the US Navy are basically in the point of being passively beaten, and their return fire can at most cause some damage to the superstructure of several heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy!

"Boom! Rumble! "Two loud bangs sounded in succession, and the U.S. Navy's light cruiser 'Salem, was hit, and an armor-piercing projectile pierced the left waterline of the 'Salen,' tearing a large hole more than three meters long. The sea poured madly into the light cruiser 'Seren. Another armor-piercing shell hit the bridge of the light cruiser 'Seren, and only 32 mm of bridge armor could not withstand the bombardment of 210 mm armor-piercing shells, and the light armor was torn apart, and all the officers, including the captain, were killed. Having lost its command, the light cruiser was soon sunk due to too much water!

Subsequently, the 4th Light Cruiser Detachment of the U.S. Navy sank the light cruiser Birmingham, the light cruiser Milwaukee, the light cruiser was heavily damaged and withdrew from the battlefield, the light cruiser Cincinnati was sunk, the light cruiser Detroit, the light cruiser was sunk, and the light cruiser Richmond was heavily damaged. This made the 4th light cruiser of the US Navy lose almost half of its combat strength, and it was completely impossible for the remaining light cruisers to withstand the attack of the 6 heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy!

Fortunately, the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment of the US Navy finally arrived at the critical moment, and when the tall figure of the battle cruiser appeared, Commodore Lance almost burst into tears!

"Haha! Reinforcements are coming. Yellow-skinned monkeys, your time of death has come! Commodore Lance shouted frantically, feeling quite proud of his eyebrows, as if the grievances of being beaten by the six heavy cruisers of the Chinese Navy had disappeared at this moment!
