"My Bismarck is still quite powerful, 92 firepower 93 armor, with 18 firepower German twin 380 mm guns and three 7 firepower Japanese 20.3 cm guns, so it's 131 firepower 100 armor, how about your South Dakota ship parameters?" As a commander who studied in school for four years and worked for a year, Yi Yishan ...... How could he memorize such a boring thing as ship parameters? It's already good to be able to find a way to understand the parameters of your own ship.

"South Dakota's words, 88 firepower, 80 armor, and 24 firepower with American triple 16-inch guns, a total of 112 firepower, gone." Chen Wenxing spread his hands, after all, he had only built his own South Dakota, and there was no equipment enhancement or anything.

"88 firepower 80 armor? Zero reinforcement? Yi Yishan's face seemed to be a little wrong, as if it was not very good-looking.

"That's right, if it's fully strengthened, it's 108 firepower and 100 armor, what?"

"I ...... My Bismarck's armor has not yet been fully strengthened, but the firepower has been fully strengthened. "Yiyishan feels unscientific, the armor is no different, but why is the original firepower of his Bismarck so much lower than that of South Dakota? The firepower was 16 points lower, and the firepower of the main gun was several points lower.

"The historical battleship Bismarck was not very high, so it is normal for Bismarck, who inherited the name of the battleship, to have low firepower." Chen Wenxing knew what this senior was thinking, so he answered his doubts, but it was true that this senior didn't learn very well.

"Okay."

"The team is successful, the first team is equipped with two battle columns, two light cruisers, one light mother and one aircraft carrier, and the second team is equipped with one battle column, three patrol and one light patrol and one aircraft carrier, please receive the corresponding empty pack ammunition according to their respective ship types, and then be led by the instructor to the No. 8 sea area."

"Okay!"

"Okay."

It's really cold to bring light patrols to participate in the exercise, of course, there are even more shabby, and the destroyer was brought over to participate in the exercise, and it is estimated that it should be the only ship mother.

"Uh-huh! Well! Let me see. Yi Yishan looked at his own group of ships, the battleships Bismarck and South Dakota, the light cruisers Emden and Yubari, the light aircraft carrier Cen-Eyed Giant, and the aircraft carrier Lexington.

"No problem, let's go."

The fleet went out and rushed to the exercise ground, even if it was just an exercise, and both sides were ready to go all out. The ship's mother, who is responsible for maintaining order, is taking the two teams to the No. 8 exercise area, and the distance between the two teams is widened to facilitate the smooth progress of the exercise.

"Come on, telescope."

Yi Yishan handed over a black thing, Chen Wenxing took a look and found that it was really a telescope, "I'll take a look." ”

The two sides set up positions, and the instructors of both sides were responsible for explaining some of the battle formations, as well as providing options, and both sides chose the trapezoidal formation.

"That's a trapezoidal formation, right? The pursuit of firepower and hits, and the frigate can also find the enemy in addition, greatly reducing the dodge of a ship on the opposite side, in this case, our side will suffer a lot. Yi Yishan pointed to the three heavy cruisers and the light cruiser, and said: "The other side has four frigates, and only two of our light cruisers are frigates, which is quite different." ”

"Not necessarily, after all, the gap between heavy cruisers and battleships is there, and I'm more worried about the air station." Chen Wenxing noticed the aircraft carrier opposite, "That's the regular aircraft carrier Ruihe, right?" I don't know what plane she was carrying, but I just know that her fighter jets were much better than my family Lexington. ”

"Zuihe? It seems to be a 6-to-air Zero Combat 21 type, right? This fighter is indeed very strong, what does your Lexington bring with you? ”

"3 pairs of empty F2A buffaloes."

"That's not really good news."

"Maybe Lexington's SBD-3 Dreadnought can help, after all, it's 3-point air-to-air and 6-point bombing."

"That's okay, but I'm afraid that the other planes brought by Ruihe will also have anti-air, in that case, the air station will not take advantage of anything." However, all this is just speculation, and no one knows the specifics.

On the cool seas, the elite of the various admirals have gathered here, even if many of them have not yet been strengthened, although their equipment is very rudimentary; But it is undeniable that they are the backbone of their own commanders, and the burden of the establishment or development of the town guard mansion is on them.

The few capital ships were almost evenly distributed in all the exercise areas, and the battleships and aircraft carriers were followed by frigates such as light cruisers and heavy cruisers, and the frigates had a lot to learn, not only to ensure their own output, but also to ensure the safety of the capital ships.

They were the warriors at the front, and when the destroyers were away, the cruisers made way for the capital ships behind them. The ship is fully equipped and enters combat state.

"Seek the enemy and prepare!" Bismarck, the flagship masterful of commands, is the most sedate warrior on the battlefield, especially knowing that the opposite side is the opponent, and understands that proper arrangement is the key to victory.

"The battleship on the other side is Hyuga, right? It seems that the speed is only 24.5 knots, and it would be a good thing for us if a low-speed battleship with a speed of less than 27 knots could be the flagship. I'm worried about the problem of the enemy, we may lose the enemy, after all, the lineups of the two sides are not much different, and if I remember correctly, Lexington's enemy is a little worse than Zuizuru, but Hyuga's enemy is not as good as me and South Dakota, so everyone should be extra vigilant and don't panic. ”

As a qualified flagship, you have to let the other shipwives know that this is a battle, and Bismarck did it.

"Hundred-Eyed Giant, you and Lexington flew planes together to participate in the search for the enemy, and the most important thing in the search for the enemy is to rely on you air carrier units; Emden and Yubari, the two of you stand a little bit in front, about ten meters away from me and South Dakota, you can be a little farther away, but not more than twenty meters. "After all, the ship is not a huge ship, and the combat space required is actually very small, the distance between ten and twenty meters is just right.

Palm-sized planes hovering in the sky, and they are the eyes of the air carrier, which is one of the main reasons why they are extremely capable of finding enemies. Lexington and Cento struggled to maneuver the plane to gain altitude and widen their horizons as much as possible, and Bismarck told them to watch out for each other's units, but that wasn't the main thing; The most important thing is to pay attention to enemy aircraft,

The sea had not been very calm, and the sound of artillery fire could be faintly heard coming from all directions, masking some slight movements, and the two sides seemed to have made all preparations and were gradually approaching under the watchful eye of the admirals.

The battle is about to begin.
