In fact, it was not far from dawn at this time, although the sea devil fleet had carried out a fire fight by itself, but because of the distance, the dark environment, and some smart sea devil sailors had already extinguished the lights, everyone could only fire at the bright point of light emitted when the other party fired, but in that case, the battleship had already moved and could not hit at all.

Su Ling came over again, just to add a fire to them, Richelieu's calculation ability is much stronger than that of the Sea Devil, and it is not too difficult to ask for the enemy in a dark environment, but Su Ling's purpose is not to let Richelieu sink a few more warships, but to light an open flame to make it more difficult for the two sides to see each other's positions.

Richelieu's quadruple guns began to fire, and she did not need to aim accurately at a battleship, but fired at the approximate position of the enemy fleet, and after a period of watching the battle, Richelieu had already guessed the approximate position of the sea devil fleet.

Sure enough, a round of main guns was smashed, and a fire was ignited, and although the cruiser that hit was directly sunk, the remnants burned non-stop on the fire.

The fire also pointed out the position of the Sea Demon fleet, and they were heading towards it with a burst of firepower.

Seeing this, Su Ling asked Richelieu to fire a cannon at the other fleet, and continued to fire on both sides, preparing until dawn.

However, this time Su Ling was disappointed, because the battleship sank more and more, and the two sides gradually played real fire, and they began to get closer and closer, and finally found out that each other was teammates under the flames.

Together, the two fleets avoided accidental damage to their own side, but their ranks were much larger, providing Richelieu with plenty of targets. And because there was only sporadic artillery fire, the Sea Demon fleet could not judge Richelieu's exact location at all, and finally had to choose to dive down to avoid Richelieu's shelling.

I have to say that this move is very useful, it is difficult to hit the target under the sea at night, Su Ling decisively left the battlefield with Richelieu. Actually, if the Sea Devils had let the fleet dive into the sea earlier, not so many things would have happened.

Only, why did the Sea Devil rush on the surface of the sea and not directly underwater in the first place?

This question was answered by Colonel Slowe, who accompanied him, because the vision under the sea surface is even less clear than the view on the sea, and the sea devil's warship sails much faster on the sea surface than under the sea, of course, one of the most important reasons is that it is easy to lose the battleship when moving underwater at night, and Slow, who has been fighting with the sea devil for many years, knows each other very well.

"The Sea Man's naval guns will be greatly weakened underwater, and they can usually only use laser weapons underwater, which is not harmful to the creatures at the bottom of the sea, but it is still too weak for ships." Slow said.

After Su Ling thought for a while, he found a thing that he had forgotten, that is, it seemed that the fleet of the Sea Devil and Sloh were not equipped with torpedoes, and after Su Ling's inquiry, he found that there were indeed no torpedoes, but there were some triggered mines, and the Sea Devils often used the advantage that their warships could enter the bottom of the sea to break the relationship, but they were also easy to get lost at the bottom of the sea, and after humans later invented the water hearing, the Sea Devils often fought head-on.

Because the naval guns have to wait for a while before they can be used after the dive, once they are discovered by the human fleet, they can't win the fight, and they will have to be attacked by depth charges all the time underwater, and because of the slow speed, they can't run away at all.

"However, there is also the possibility that they have something very important to assemble urgently, so they are rushing at night, and ordinary sea devils do not sail at night." Slow added.

Su Ling didn't know the reason why the Sea Demon was in a hurry, but this did not prevent him from pestering this fleet, the strength of this fleet was much stronger than his fast fleet on paper, there were twenty-four capital ships alone, seven were unfortunately sunk at night, and seventeen were unfortunately sunk. Coupled with the huge escort formation, confronting Su Ling head-on, even if there is Richelieu, the other warships will not be much better.

Therefore, Su Ling adopted guerrilla warfare at sea, because of the huge formation of the sea devils, he could attack and attack on the side, even if there were three or four capital ships on the other side, it was impossible to beat Richelieu.

Su Ling didn't want to be sunk, he only wanted to be wounded, and he withdrew after two rounds of artillery, and after the other party reorganized in order to maintain the formation, Su Ling came to interfere again, because the speed of the fast fleet was higher than that of the Sea Demon fleet, and the only ones that could reach the speed of the fast fleet were some cruisers and destroyers.

After pestering like this for a whole day, Su Ling finally knew what the Sea Devils were gathering for.

While supporting other coastal cities, the East China Sea Fleet encountered a mysterious fleet at sea, although the opponent had capital ships, but was beaten by the five nuclear-powered aircraft carriers of the East China Sea Fleet, and the heavy fighters could blow through the armor of the battleships with a single bomb. But the East China Sea Fleet did not have battleships, and the guns of destroyers and frigates were too small to engage the fast fleet of the Sea Devils in the event that missiles could not be used.

However, the East China Sea Fleet's decision-making was very wise, relying on its own speed to fight a guerrilla war, coupled with the fact that the new fighters did not have much requirements for the wind direction, it still caused great losses to the Sea Demon Fleet.

The Sea Demon believed that this sea air force was a great threat, because the Sea Demon Air Force was powerless in the face of such a large number of fighters, so they gathered a large number of fleets to besiege it, and the fleet that Su Ling attacked was one of the support fleets.

If this is the case, things will become troublesome, tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the East China Sea Fleet are not just to give up, Su Ling immediately assigned tasks to the fleet of Baodao Port through the commander's network, divided into three waves to go to the combat area to support, the first wave is some of the fast fleets that did not take away this time, the second wave is the air fleet, of course, there are enough guards, and the third wave is the slow capital ships, a quarter of the slow capital ships were left in the treasure island port to guard, and all the others rushed to support.

Su Ling had a hunch that this would turn into a decisive battle.

The East China Sea Fleet, which was fighting in the ocean, also discovered its own danger, because the radar equipped with it could be used, and the East China Sea Fleet discovered threats from all directions, not only on the surface of the sea, but also under the surface of the sea. And in the case of an artillery battle, it will be difficult for the East China Sea Fleet to fight the Sea Devils.

"It would be nice if the missiles could still be used." The commander of the East China Sea Fleet sighed, missiles cannot be used, missile destroyers have been completely scrapped, and fighters can only use conventional weapons, otherwise with the strike of this fleet, the Sea Demon Fleet will die within the range of artillery bombardment, even if it comes.
