312 Advance, Indian Ocean

The Japanese fleet, which is the biggest threat to the security of the East China Sea, disappeared, leaving only the South Korean fleet and the North Korean fleet, which posed a potential threat to the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea. Although they are allies, the Chinese player organization does not dare to be too careless.

After the Bohai Fleet fought the Battle of Taiwan, it returned to Vladivostok, Dalian, Weihai, Yantai, Tanggukou and other naval bases and stationed them to guard them. More than a dozen Chinese fleets, including the Big Bird Fleet in the Yellow Sea, the Zhoushan Fleet in the East China Sea, and the Hongzehu Fleet, also returned to their naval bases.

The 40,000 or 50,000 old-fashioned warships gathered in the Taiwan Strait have returned to their respective nests. These old warships, which only had masts, sails and oars, were somewhat outdated, and the major shipyards along the coast had gradually ceased production. Their main task will no longer be combat, but will be responsible for patrolling, guarding, and transporting supplies.

The most recent second-generation warships are new warships with masts, sails, oars, iron sheets, and bronze cannons.

So far, the only actual combat of this type of battleship has been the battle of the flagship of the Japanese First Fleet. Although the scale of the campaign was very small, but its excellent long-range attack and defense capabilities, only ten warships actually crisscrossed around nearly 10,000 warships, and the surprise artillery bombardment sank the Japanese flagship, and also killed nearly 250 Japanese sailing ships, and the result of each warship was as high as 0:25, giving people an extremely shocking feeling. \

The Blood Dance Remnant Yang recorded the entire battle process with a video, and it was not passed on, but handed over to Qin Xiaobai. Qin Xiaobai gave this video to more than a dozen leaders of the Chinese fleet to watch. After watching this combat video, all the leaders gasped. If there were a thousand such warships, then the Japanese fleet would not have a chance to fight a decisive battle with China at all, and there would not be even half of the scum left.

They almost immediately agreed that all shipbuilders would stop building first-generation war galleons and devote all efforts to second-generation gunboats and sailing ships, and that such gunboats would be put into use in the Indian Ocean theater. That would dramatically change the unfavorable situation on the Indian Ocean battlefield.

At present, the Zhoushui Alliance has a huge military industry and shipyard industry, which can easily manufacture second-generation gunboat sailing ships in batches.

And other large shipyards in China, they can't make black powder and bronze cannons. But they were able to build a large number of iron sailing ships that could carry cannons. As long as the bronze cannon produced by the Water Alliance is installed, it will be able to become a second-generation gunboat sailboat.

In addition, the alliance of prince-level players such as the Big Bird League, the Zhoushan League, and the Zhanjiang League has now been able to create black powder and bronze cannons. \

With China's military industry and shipbuilding industry at present, all military factories and shipyards are fully capable of building a batch of powerful second-generation gunboats in a short period of time. Marching into the Indian Ocean.

They no longer need to put the first generation of old sailing ships into battle for the kind of brutal close naval combat.

Moreover, the new gunboats also have a huge advantage, that is, they need less troops, and the pressure on food supply can be greatly reduced, and only gunpowder and projectiles need to be replenished in time. This is very important for long-distance expeditions.

Although the cost of a second-generation gunboat is five or six times that of a first-generation sailboat, its offensive and defensive performance is excellent. More than ten times more than the first generation of sailboats.

Early January.

The Zhoushui Alliance dispatched 200 gunboats. In addition, the rest of the major alliances each dispatched 3000 ships to form a fleet of 1,000 second-generation iron gunboats, led by Sea Soul, and arrived at the port of Changi in Singapore in a low-key manner, and incorporated into the Chinese Indian Ocean Fleet.

Soon, this "small" fleet went to the military port of Blair in the Andaman Islands.

Blair Military Port. There are also 2,000 vanguard warships and thousands of transport and supply ships stationed in the middle of the line. ^^^^ they occupied the Andaman Islands, they suspended their attacks on the Indian Ocean, and instead stayed in the islands to clear the remnants of the army.

Because of this day, the Sino-Japanese naval battle broke out. The commander of the Indian Ocean Fleet, Sea Soul, was worried about changes in the rear and a shortage of supplies, so the vanguard fleet did not move. Later, a series of events occurred, and the military operation against the Indian Ocean was forced to be delayed.

This time. The Indian Ocean has been calm.

Nor can it be said that it is completely calm. The Indian fleet was once ready to move, and it seemed to have the intention of taking the initiative to attack. Unfortunately, the Japanese fleet was defeated too quickly and did not give the Indian fleet enough time to prepare. The Indians are not as vigorous as the Japanese, and even a small matter often has to be delayed for a long time, let alone a decisive battle.

The Indian high-level players were not quite ready, and time had passed, and the Japanese fleet had been completely defeated. Moreover, at this time, as many as 40,000 or 50,000 Chinese warships were gathered in the vicinity of Taiwan, which made the Indian fleet daunting. If all these fleets go into the Indian Ocean. It will be a nightmare for the Indian fleet.

Again and again hesitated. In the end, the Indian gamer's top brass did not take the initiative to attack the Andaman Islands, but continued to act according to the original plan - luring the Chinese fleet deep into the Indian Ocean. ^^^^ annihilated the Navy in the vicinity of India. The Chinese fleet has to cross the long South China Sea and the Indian Ocean, and expeditionary operations are very unfavorable. The Indians had an advantage, and the certainty of victory was greatly increased. This is the most advantageous mode of warfare for India.

200 kilometers off the coast of Chennai, India, a detachment of 100 Indian warships cruised and patrolled the sea.

"It's a great opportunity to fight back, but it's a pity!"

Admiral of the Indian Navy's detachment, Dhawa, sat on the mast of one of the dilapidated Indian warships, looking out at the sparkling blue sea and sky in the distance, sighing with regret. He was the commander of this Indian fleet and was sent to patrol.

More than 10 days have passed since the Sino-Japanese naval battle, and several major incidents have occurred one after another in these 10-odd days. Almost everything made him feel extremely lost.

The biggest event was undoubtedly the crushing defeat of the Japanese fleet in the Sino-Japanese naval battle. It's a pity that the Indian players are busy arguing with each other, and they miss an opportunity to fight back against the Andaman Islands. Dhawa was very angry, but he was helpless, he only had a hundred warships at his disposal, and even if he wanted to, he could not fight the Chinese at all. Only with the consent of the Indian player hierarchy can the tens of thousands of warships stationed in Chennai be mobilized. \

The second event was the formation of the Ayo Organization. Idiots can also see that this organization, which includes more than a dozen East Asian and Southeast Asian countries, is aimed at Japan and India. Japan has been suppressed by Yayo, and there is no chance of turning over. Now India is left alone to confront China and Yayo.

The third thing is also humiliating. When the Indian top leaders saw that China had organized an Asian Covenant organization, they were extremely jealous and wanted to organize an Indian Compact organization in the Indian Ocean, and sent envoys to Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Mauritius, Madagascar, and other countries to win over the alliance in an attempt to form an Indian Ocean Alliance to confront the Asian Covenant. It is a shame that none of these countries agreed to form an alliance with India.

Although India is the strongest country in South Asia, it cannot find an ally in the Indian Ocean. On the contrary, India's neighbors to the left and right, Pakistan and Myanmar, have allied themselves with China, and Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have also moved closer to China, but they have not formed an alliance with China because of India's fierce reaction.

The failure of this additional operation was widely spread among Indian players and players from neighboring countries, and it became a laughing stock for a while, making India's top brass feel very faceless, and they could only desperately attack neighboring Pakistan to vent their anger.

Dhawa also does not understand why India cannot find an ally in the Indian Ocean.

Fortunately, there are a few good things as well. Pakistan was no longer able to hold out under the fierce offensive of India's huge 6th Army, Pakistan's navy was completely wiped out, and only the last three cities of the 6th Army were left to resist stubbornly. The war has reached this point, and it is almost the same to say that Pakistan has perished. Once the remnants of Pakistan's stubborn resistance are completely cleaned up, India will be able to concentrate its military forces and engage China in the Indian Ocean with all its might, driving the Chinese fleet out of the Indian Ocean.

In addition, the Indian fleet declared a ban on the sea, cut off the Suez Canal, the Persian Gulf to the Strait of Malacca, and went to China for maritime trade.

Dhawa reclined on the mast, thinking in his heart.

Suddenly, the Indian player on the ship panicked and shouted at the mast: "Head, there is a large fleet in the east, it seems to be a Chinese fleet!" ”

Hearing the shout, Dhawa woke up from his contemplation and hurriedly looked to the east of the sea. Sure enough, a large fleet appeared in the sky dozens of miles away, at least a few hundred ships remaining. From this direction, it is possible only that the Chinese fleet.

"What's the panic, it's still far away, the whole fleet goes over and take a look!"

Dhawa sat still on top of the mast and yelled at the Indian players on the boat. He knew in his heart that the distance of more than ten miles seemed close, but it took a lot of time to really walk. Even if 10,000 Chinese warships came, they couldn't do anything with his small fleet. It's a big deal, it's not good, just flee as soon as possible, they are reconnaissance warships, and the sailing degree is fast, and the Chinese fleet will definitely not be able to catch up.

A hundred Indian warships redirected and headed for the Chinese fleet in the distance.

After half an hour, they got closer, and the small Indian fleet breathed a sigh of relief. Because the Chinese fleet that came only had a thousand Chinese warships. Such a small number of warships, at best, is just a patrol or a small vanguard, and is not the main force of the Chinese fleet.

After the Indian small fleet reconnoitred the enemy's situation, it was relieved and swaggered along the side of the Chinese fleet for seven or eight miles, wanting to see where the Chinese fleet was going.

The Chinese warships also did not seem to intend to bother with the small Indian fleet, allowing them to follow alongside.

Dhawa became more and more puzzled that the Chinese fleet seemed to be sailing in the direction of Chennai. What is this Chinese reconnaissance fleet doing? Do you want to spy on the deployment of the Indian fleet in Chennai? I'm afraid this is not enough for the tens of thousands of Indian fleets in Chennai.
