Chapter 119: The battlefield will never go as smoothly as you think

09:42

Airspace operations are operations that occupy absolute terrain superiority in close ground operations, especially in naval warfare, and being able to dominate the sky undoubtedly has an extremely important impact on the balance of battle.

And as far as the air combat units seen so far are concerned, the number is completely disproportionate. Even though the Giant Gorge was an enlarged supercarrier, the number of fighters it could carry was only about 100, and the number of fully loaded aircraft was at that time.

Of the flight brigades with ten planes as a unit, only six teams took off. With the addition of the two brigades supported from Yunshan, the number of human flying fighters was only about ninety.

The number of gluttonous combat airships exceeded five hundred, and in the face of this nearly five-to-one difference in combat power, the human fighter formation did not have the slightest fear, and they quickly cut into the opponent's scattered formation with a flank formation.

Although the gluttonous combat airship is not comparable to the supersonic fighter in terms of speed, the opponent's firepower is scattered and the agility is also dominant.

But in the case of air combat, the speed of the flight largely determines which side will strike first. The human fighter equipped with the Fire Fang 20 model has a maximum cruise speed of more than Mach 2.8.

This speed made it almost impossible to aim at the small firepower points equipped on the gluttonous combat airship, and even if it did, it would be left far behind by the gray exhaust.

In fact, if it weren't for the light energy barrier placed on the opponent's cross flagship in the Battle of Tianhe, coupled with the close combat, it would have been impossible for these vanguard troops of the other side to take such a big advantage in the confrontation with the Yunshan Base Air Force Group.

In the face of such a ferocious offensive, the gluttons seemed to be equally superior. Compared to the earthlings, they have a lot of experience in fighting foreign races. Suppression of firepower and speed alone cannot solve these alien creatures that have adapted to space warfare.

Different creatures have different senses in reading the world, and because humans live on the earth, they are familiar with the up, down, left, and right under gravity. In terms of ground warfare, it has a decisive advantage over gluttonous creatures, but when this environment is changed to the sky, the situation happens to be reversed.

The precision-guided Thunderstone glide missile failed to hit the target, and the fighter formation attacked like a human using his hand to drive away flies. obviously has speed, but was cleverly dodged by the other party in a strange way of movement. At the same time, the closed firepower network from all sides began to shrink the range of activities of the fighter formation step by step.

When the air battle began to be hand-to-hand, the gap between the two sides began to manifest. The short-range anti-aircraft missile Thunderbolt can destroy the opponent's combat airship, but it cannot kill the gluttony of those airships, they can simply jump on top of another combat airship.

Some even jumped directly onto the fuselage of the fighter jet on the Huaxia side, and easily attacked the cockpit of the fighter directly. Glutton's physical fitness is fully capable of supporting it, and they make such movements in the air.

Faced with such a situation, the flying group began to throw off the opponent's fire network with speed and gradually reduce the opponent's combat airships with long-range firepower.

For a while, the battle became stalemate.

09:45

While the Air Force Group was fighting with the gluttonous troops, the destroyer formation of the South China Sea Fleet, which was carrying the Xiongbing company, had gradually approached the vicinity of the gluttonous flagship from the side.

Dukao is exactly the same as the demon speculated, and wants to use the tactic of the elite sneak attack on the flagship again. Unlike before, this time there is no Monkey King, but there are many more recruits.

"Everyone, pay attention, in a moment, as explained before, Yaowen will raise the seabed as a landing point near here, and you will be responsible for covering the destroyer fleet."

Rena said, looking back and forth, but found that there was no trace of Cheng Yaowen.

"Where's Yaowen? Where have you been?"

"I don't know, I saw it just now...... Maybe it's going to the bathroom."

Zhao Xin's recent reply is like this. Rena nodded, she didn't know Cheng Yaowen's situation this week, so she didn't take this matter to heart.

"Rose, according to the information of the Super Divine Academy, this cross flagship is loaded with a light energy barrier, so my attacks can't pass through it, and you need to defeat it from the inside by jumping through wormholes."

"It's too far away for me to move directly to that high from here."

"Ge Xiaolun will cover your approach, and then I will launch an attack to help you light up your shield."

Rose glanced at Ge Xiaolun, who looked solemn on the side, and took over this most important task.

"Alright, that's it. All of them are in place, Zhao Xin, go and find Yaowen."

"Understood, Sister Na."

An electric light rose from Zhao Xin's feet, and he disappeared on the deck in an instant. Rena sighed and said to the eight goddesses who had been assembled

"The four of you cooperate with Ge Xiaolun to cover Rose's lift-off, if the opponent's flagship has an attack, it should be able to block it."

"Please rest assured, the goddess will definitely complete the task."

"Then the rest of you should pay attention to protecting the fleet, I am afraid that General Dukao's air force will have limited time to resist the gluttonous main force."

Rena's worries were not unreasonable, and she separated the distance between the flagships, which greatly reduced the chance of being annihilated by the male soldiers in one go. Even in the absence of Sun Wukong, the South China Sea Fleet did not dare to fight head-on with the gluttonous main force at all.

At the same time as the Air Force Brigade was dispatched, the warships of the entire South China Sea Fleet were divided into three in order to cover people's eyes and ears. After all, the soldiers of the male company wearing black armor are in which formation, the other party has no insight at all.

After approaching smoothly, they will naturally be able to rely on the Rose's wormhole to break through the opponent's defenses.

But after all, this is a strategy made on the spot, and there are too many things that are not taken into account. Among them, the gluttonous main gun is the most lethal of so many uncertainties.

It hadn't started to rain yet, but the air was filled with an oppressive heaviness. All sound was erased, and the crimson flash burned the retina.

The cannon cannon mounted on the Cross Flagship is fired. With a total length of 50 meters and a caliber of more than 18 meters, it was like a monster-like artillery weapon, which instantly melted the two destroyers on the ray, and shot a huge whirlpool into the sea surface with it.

The window panes of the destroyer evaporated like a soap bubble, and not to mention the crew members inside, not to mention the bones that were not left to burn out.

"How so!?"

All the fighters of the South China Sea Fleet watched this exaggerated scene in disbelief, they stopped what they were doing, and fear grew in their hearts. They began to think, could it be themselves who fired the next shot of the terrifying main gun?
