Chapter 154: Prelude and Shelling
"I'll take care of the fleet at seven o'clock!"
Akagi, which had the largest number of carrier-based aircraft at his disposal, preferred to deal with the largest number of the three waves in the fleet.
Now that the deep-sea flagship force field has been exposed, it proves that the follow-up means of the deep-sea flagship will also appear soon, and now they must race against time to give priority to the three-wave group that will be attacked first, so as not to be difficult to take care of when fighting the deep-sea flagship later.
"I'm in charge of the deep-sea fleet at eleven o'clock, and Princeton quickly dismantles the deep-sea fleet at nine o'clock and then quickly rushes back to the transport planes to guard against the backup means of the deep-sea flagship."
Lexington knew very well that now was not the time to be competitive, and she did not have as many carrier-based aircraft as Akagi, so she very decisively chose to solve the slightly smaller wave of deep-sea aircraft in the direction of eleven o'clock.
"It is already strangled with all its might, and it is expected that in forty-nine seconds, all two hundred and seventeen deep-sea II fighters in the direction of nine o'clock will be wiped out, and in seventy seconds, they will return to the transport plane fifty kilometers away."
At such a critical crisis, Princeton naturally couldn't keep her hands, she gritted her teeth and agitated all the force field energy in the power furnace, divided her mind into thirty-nine parts, and poured powerful force field energy into each of her fighters. With the full blessing of Miss Magician, these heroes have all exerted their strongest strength.
Under her full control, the 39 fighters were like 39 ace pilots who controlled the most advanced fighters, and among the more than 200 deep-sea production aircraft, they were like no one, interspersed back and forth with strangle.
These deep-sea II fighters with only five points of air value, there is almost a three-level generation difference between the performance and Princeton's hero aircraft, although they have tried their best to resist, but the absolute performance gap is not something that can be made up by hard work, almost every five seconds, more than 30 deep-sea II production fighters are shot down by Princeton, and these production aircraft have no way to take the hero planes that are shuttling in their fleet, and can only watch the friendly forces around them gradually decrease.
It took only forty-three seconds for Princeton to wipe out the deep-sea swarm, a full six seconds faster than the forty-nine seconds she had expected.
Compared with Princeton's whimsical antelope-like carrier-based aircraft maneuvering, the fleet controlled by Akagi is completely unexpected.
Although the number of deep-sea aircraft she faced was the largest, she also had quite a few carrier-based aircraft.
Three hundred and seventy-three to one hundred and sixty, the ratio of the two sides is a little more than two to one, far less exaggerated than the ratio of seven to one on the Princeton side.
And because of the existence of the trump card of "surprise attack", the initiative of air combat will always be in the hands of Akagi.
She controlled one hundred and sixty carrier-based planes that had been hidden by the "surprise attack" to quietly fly above the deep-sea aircraft group, locked on and aimed them without the deep-sea mass production aircraft noticing, and then suddenly revealed a hideous body that shone with metallic light, and swooped down towards the unsuspecting deep-sea aircraft group.
This sudden attack killed more than 180 deep-sea Type III production fighters in an instant, causing the huge deep-sea fleet to directly lose almost half of its fighters.
After a round of raids, the remaining deep-sea fighters were completely disorganized, and these deep-sea fighters belonging to different deep-sea aircraft carriers were rushing around like headless flies, unable to organize even a decent resistance, and were easily divided and strangled by Akagi with carrier-based aircraft whose performance far exceeded that of these deep-sea production aircraft.
From the beginning of the raid to the end of the air battle, Akagi spent almost two minutes in total.
The time she spent was naturally incomparable to that of Princeton, and she herself had lost almost twenty carrier-based aircraft, but this did not mean that she was worse than Princeton, because the deep-sea III combat mechanism she faced was as high as nine points, which was the most superior performance among conventional deep-sea fighters. You must know that if you hadn't replaced the "Shock" and "Blue Frost", Akagi's original "Gale" would have only been nine o'clock.
Among the three aircraft carrier mothers, Mrs. Lexington was the last to solve the opponent.
Because she has neither the ability to push the performance of carrier-based aircraft beyond the limits like Princeton's "trick", nor the means to take the lead before the war begins like Akagi's "surprise attack".
Although Mrs.'s "Aviation Tactical Pioneer" is also very strong, it is more reflected in the power of carrier-based aircraft attacks, and although there are some improvements to the air capabilities of combat mechanisms, they are not as direct as Princeton and Akagi.
However, corresponding to it is the wife's carrier-based aircraft control ability.
Instead of completely relying on performance like Princeton, and not disrupting the enemy's position with a surprise attack like Akagi, she fought a real air battle with the deep sea in a dignified manner.
The carrier-based aircraft controlled by Lexington are like a well-trained army, and every command she gives will be perfectly executed, pulling, luring, dividing, and combining.
Every tactical move is executed as perfectly as a textbook, and it is a good lesson for deep-sea aircraft carriers who control carrier-based aircraft only by instinct.
The battle between Lexington's fighter jets and the bathyscapites, like a well-trained regular army on the ground fighting the scattered anarchic forces, is firmly controlled by Lexington, as if she had written a script in advance, and she uses near-perfect fighter control skills to involve and divide the deep-sea fleet that far outnumbers hers, and then eat it piece by piece like a game of chess.
The deep sea people tried to concentrate superior forces to encircle and suppress Lexington's aircraft group several times, but each time they were led by Lexington's nose, lured and pulled, and the number of carrier-based aircraft was three times that of Lexington, but they ended up completely wiped out under Lexington's rhythmic harvest.
It's like two e-sports players in modern society, one is the strongest king, the other is Glory Plastic, even if the latter is three levels ahead of the former and a large piece, it will still be dizzy and confused by the former's show.
Although it took a long time, it was based on the premise that it was compared to Princeton and Akagi.
Lexington's ability to wipe out a full 247 deep-sea carrier-based aircraft in a head-on confrontation with 85 carrier-based aircraft in just five minutes, while remaining unscathed, is completely worthy of boasting.
Within five minutes, all three waves of deep-sea fighters that were attacking the transport planes in three directions were wiped out, while the losses of their own side were minimal, which is indeed commendable.
However, whether it is Mo Yan or the three aircraft carrier mothers, they all know that this temptation is just an appetizer before the main meal, and it is far from the time to celebrate.
Lexington, Akagi, and Princeton quickly eliminated the incoming deep-sea aircraft group, and quickly transferred their carrier-based aircraft back to the vicinity of the transport aircraft, leaving only a small part to spread around for reconnaissance.
They know that now the initiative in this battle is completely in the hands of the other party, and as long as the transport plane is still flying in the sky, they can only be used as a passive party to deal with the other party's next means.
Less than five seconds after the group of the three shipwresses withdrew, a bright yellow streamer suddenly flew from the distant sea, crossed an arc, and rushed over the trajectory left by the transport plane after it flew by.
The bright yellow streamer came so suddenly that the shipwives didn't have time to react, and it wasn't until the streamer crossed the transport plane and crashed on distant land that a huge flower of flame exploded, and Princeton's sharp warning sounded in the cabin:
"Beware of shelling !!"
