Chapter 178: Naval Warfare (8) Aviation Raid
Su Ling told the East China Sea Fleet the news of the aid, and asked the East China Sea Fleet to find a way to get close to his fast fleet, and when it was night, the Sea Demon Fleet he was entangled with had already escaped through the night, although this was also the result of Su Ling's intention to let go.
If they escape like this, they will inevitably deviate from the scheduled voyage, and the situation of the East China Sea Fleet will be slightly better.
The Sea Devil is very smart, he has long blocked the route to land, and the blockade is carried out underwater, the East China Sea Fleet can only use conventional weapons, the underwater strike strength is not fatal, as long as enough early warning ships are deployed in the deep water area, once the East China Sea Fleet crosses the net, it will be reduced.
The mainland's air force has also supported the East China Sea Fleet many times, but because wars are breaking out everywhere, the army aviation has no more ability to solve all this, and now the only one that can effectively help the East China Sea Fleet is the Su Ling Fleet that departs from the East China Sea.
However, Su Ling was not too flustered, judging from the map, although the East China Sea Fleet was surrounded by enemies on all sides, the current situation of the East China Sea Fleet was relatively safe. Because of the strong air power, the Sea Demon can only roughly determine the location of the East China Sea Fleet, while the East China Sea Fleet's early warning aircraft and radar can lock on to the Sea Demon Fleet in all directions, so as to make correct judgments. Coupled with the fast speed of modern carrier-based aircraft, stronger stealth ability, and outrageous long stay in the air, it can completely confuse the sight and sound of the Sea Devil, and can even fly directly to the land airport for replenishment. Land-based aircraft and transport aircraft can also replenish the East China Sea Fleet by long-range.
The Sea Demon really wanted to catch this East China Sea Fleet, and it was estimated that they would not even be able to catch a trace in ten or twenty days.
However, the East China Sea Fleet also played a role in mobilizing the Sea Demon fleet, and Su Ling planned to have a general battle to solve the threat of the Sea Demon once and for all, so as to turn back and defend against Cthulhu's attack.
Therefore, a day later, after meeting up with the fast warships he left in the harbor and the air fleet arrived at the predetermined location, Su Ling asked the East China Sea Fleet to expose some flaws to the Sea Demon Fleet, and prepared to use the radar of the East China Sea Fleet to launch a terrifying air attack on the Sea Demon Man, and that afternoon, a destroyer carrying her commander came to the East China Sea Fleet and boarded the flagship of the East China Sea Fleet, responsible for real-time message transmission.
The information of the commander's network is not all expressed through words, this commander came here to transmit radar maps in the commander's network in real time, and the whole distribution of the current fleet of the sea devils is unobstructed by the East China Sea Fleet and the Su Ling fleet.
It's just that the slow capital ship is still a little short of reaching the predetermined position, and it will take a while to endure before launching an air attack.
At dawn the next day, the Sea Demon Fleet was assembling towards the location of the fake news created by the East China Sea Fleet, and after a night of sailing, they finally came to the location where the East China Sea Fleet was suspected of existing, but there was no trace of the East China Sea Fleet here.
At the same time that the high-level of the Sea Demon fleet felt that they had been tricked again, and knocked on the table angrily, there was a sudden whistling wind in the sky, and they looked out the window, only to see countless carrier-based aircraft backlit, and launched an attack from behind the dawn sun, you know, at this time, the Sea Demon was not prepared for air defense at all.
A large number of bombs and torpedoes fell from the sky, and the capital ships were taken care of, and if it were not for the fear that too many carrier-based planes would accidentally injure their teammates, the bombs would have been dropped more intensively.
The Sea Devil's ships were all in flames, and at the beginning there were Sea Demon sailors who tried to go up to put out the fire, but then they were beaten into a sieve by machine guns.
In this bombing, Su Ling's aviation formation has become a supporting role, the protagonist in the sky is a large number of fighters of Hainan Airlines and fighters of land aviation to help, although these fighters do not have the blessing of the ship Niang level, but the body is large, with more bombs, and the bombs are not stronger than the bombs in World War II, although there are no missiles, but the other party can not threaten these huge fighters at close range, can only watch their ships burned clean.
Soon, the next few waves of air attacks followed, and the already injured Sea Demon capital ship was mended, and at this time, there were already Sea Demon ships that had already dived into the water to avoid the air attack. It's just that the radar has locked on their position, and even if they dive underwater, they will be bombed, not to mention that Su Ling's fleet is already on its way.
The third wave of air raids, Su Ling also calculated the time, at the same time that the third wave of air raids came to the sky above the Sea Demon fleet, he appeared in front of the Sea Demon fleet with a fast fleet, and launched an artillery bombardment, the Sea Demon Man's fleet formation at this time was too chaotic, although there were many warships, but only sporadic warships were firing at Su Ling's fast fleet.
Su Ling didn't rush to approach, the battle situation was already very clear, it was easy to be bitten back when pressed at this time, he had already let the commander of the entire fast fleet leave, and he was the only one in command of this fast fleet at this time.
Su Ling's previous naval battles were not zero casualties, there were always unlucky commanders who were grazed by stray bullets, although most of them survived because of their physical strength, but there were also three people who died on the spot. He knows that war will inevitably hurt, but an absolutely crushing battle does not require meaningless deaths.
Su Ling let the fast fleet slowly approach the Sea Demon Fleet, and kept firing, the target was the already injured Sea Demon Battleship and the Sea Demon Battleship that wanted to dive, he was waiting for the Grand Fleet to come over and make a siege.
However, after the initial panic of the Sea Devils, some of the capital ships reformed the formation, and the carrier-based aircraft in the sky began to suffer casualties, and some unlucky modern aircraft were hit by large anti-aircraft guns, igniting black smoke, fortunately, the material was strong enough and did not disintegrate directly in the air, but it is estimated that it will be very difficult to fly back in that way.
After discovering this, Su Ling asked Richelieu to concentrate on shelling that place, wanting to use Richelieu's powerful attack power to avoid the formation of the Sea Demon fleet, after all, at present, the number of Sea Demon fleets still has a great advantage, and the gathering of so many capital ships is a big disaster for the fast fleet.
It's just that these sea devils are quite tenacious, and they should be regarded as the elite navy inside the sea devils, and they have launched a counterattack against the fast fleet in the face of Richelieu's damage, and there are already warships on Su Ling's side that have begun to be injured.
Seeing this, Su Ling could only temporarily withdraw from the attack range of these capital ships, wait for the slow capital ships behind to arrive on the battlefield, and then start a decisive battle.
Of course, before that, Su Ling had most of the commanders go to the warships of the East China Sea Fleet to command the operation from a distance.
The battleship controlled by the ship's mother sank, and there was still a chance to catch it, but the commander was gone, it was really gone.
