Chapter 227: Ready to Fly

The fighter planes were still far away, and countless rockets and ground-to-ground missiles were already shooting there.

The continuous columns of water rose and fell one after another for more than ten minutes, and the fighters in the air had already exhausted all the cannons and shells before returning one after another.

At this time, under the surface of the sea, countless torpedoes fired by the battleship again also swarmed and rushed there.

The attack lasted half an hour before it ended.

Laputos knew that there were no giant beasts in the sea there, but the officers and soldiers needed to vent and give themselves courage, so he didn't stop them.

"Let the ships report the damage!"

The results soon came together, and the USS Stennis aircraft carrier group lost two nuclear submarines, two Burke-class warships, and a Ticonderoga-class cruiser with a badly damaged bilge and was already in a half-sinking state.

The bilge of the flagship aircraft carrier Stennis is also badly damaged, and it is now tilted 12 degrees, and its speed has been further reduced to 18 knots.

Carrier-based aircraft lost 9 aircraft, 4 of which were dropped into the sea when the aircraft carrier was hit, and 5 of which were dropped by the pilots who were attacked by infrasound.

Laputos's heart was cold, and there was no doubt that he had become the commander of the aircraft carrier formation with the greatest losses of the Mi Army after World War II.

"Send another telegram to the headquarters, our formation was attacked by two giant beasts in the sea, lost 5 warships, 9 fighters, and the bottom bilge of the aircraft carrier was flooded, and the current speed has dropped to 18 knots, and the inclination is 12, so it is no longer possible to participate in the iron wall encirclement plan, and I request to retreat to the base base."

When the Ministry of Defense of the United States received this telegram and some of the videos that were sent back later, everyone was shocked beyond words.

Admiral Van Diat, who was in charge of the day-to-day affairs of the Ministry of Defense, hurriedly informed Admiral Curtis and quickly convened an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

"General Van Diat, didn't our aircraft carrier battle group wound a giant beast?" An Air Force general asked.

Van Diatt shook his head, pointed to the picture of the giant beast, and said, "You see, it's roaring, and the commander of the battle group Stagnis, Admiral Lapudos, explained that at this time the fleet was under infrasonic attack.

Among them, five fighters fell into the sea because the pilot couldn't stand it.

This is the first time we've learned that there are two sea beasts, and in addition to colliding and devouring, they can also emit an infrasonic roar.

Therefore, I suggest that these two sea beasts be captured or eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult for the Iron Wall Coalition Plan to operate under the threat of sea beasts. ”

The air admiral shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy, we have an aircraft carrier battle group facing them and almost no power to fight back."

How many aircraft carrier formations do you think we need to destroy it? In fact, we don't know much about Behemoths until now.

Why are they attacking our aircraft carrier formations? Why devour battleships? In particular, have there been any warships or ships from other countries in the vicinity that have been swallowed?

If these questions are not clear, what effective way can we deal with the behemoth? ”

Harris immediately said, "At present, at least the sea beast has attacked the fleet of the three countries, so it should not be aimed at us."

Although you need to understand these problems, it is only in the process of capturing or destroying them that you can gradually learn the details. ”

Van Diatt tapped on the table and chimed in, "Harris is right, you can only learn about them in a battle with them.

In particular, if they are not captured or destroyed, how will our plan to be encircled? ”

As he spoke, he motioned to his adjutant to change a map of the Indian Ocean, then pointed to a shaded area on the map and continued: "This area is based on the connection of several locations where the giant beast appeared, and it is estimated that this area is the range of the giant beast's activity.

You know, in a few hours, Calvin's horn will enter this area, if this formation is also attacked by giant beasts.

So do we still have the strength to carry out the plan of the Iron Wall? ”

Van Diaat's words silenced the room, and it was clear that he was right.

Admiral Harris suddenly asked an old man in a suit who was sitting next to him, "Professor George, can you judge any weaknesses of the sea beast based on these materials?" ”

Professor George stared at the picture with blazing eyes and said, "Everyone, I have studied the information of the giant beast in the sea, and its appearance is very similar to that of the overlord of the sea in the era of dinosaurs.

In other words, the intelligent creatures that made it should have come to Blue Star in the era of dinosaurs, but why they appeared at this time, I can only speculate that it was the action of Ah Sanguo to salvage the Keqin and woke them up.

As for its weakness, it is difficult to deduce that the Stennis squadron dropped depth charges and torpedoes on it this time, but it does not seem to have hurt it.

All I can say is that it's very intelligent, and it's even improving in the course of fighting our ships, so it's best to arrange for it to be captured or destroyed as soon as possible. ”

Van Diatt asked with interest, "Why do you think its intelligence is improving?" ”

Professor George said: "Judging from its attack on the Visaca of the Three Kingdoms, it is still afraid of the fleet, otherwise it would not have been chased and escaped by several destroyers of the Three Kingdoms.

This time, however, it has already strategically attacked the Stennis formation with its partners, and I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the two nuclear submarines of the fleet, one in front of the other and one in the rear, were the first to lose contact.

It can be seen that they are quietly solving the underwater forces of our aircraft carrier formation first, and only then launching an attack on the formation, which requires wisdom. ”

"Papapapa", a burst of applause came, and everyone looked up, it was General Curtis, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

"Professor George did a very good job, but now is not the time for us to deal with the sea beasts, and I think you have deviated from the main purpose of this meeting."

Speaking of which, Curtis glanced at the attendees and continued, "This meeting is to discuss the issue of how the Iron Wall Plan can be implemented in the shortest possible time under the interference of the giant beasts in the sea. ”

Seeing that General Van Diatt wanted to speak, he raised his hand and pressed it weakly, "General Van Diatt, don't worry, we can try to solve the problem you are worried about."

Your map has marked the area of activity of the sea behemoth, then immediately arrange for Calvin's horn formation to bypass this area and march towards the intended assembly area.

When I say this, I am testing one thing, that is, whether the dragon on the giant beast in the sea is made by magical technology? ”

Curtis's words stunned everyone present.

"General Curtis, how did you connect the sea beast Shanglong with magical technology?" Van Diaat was a little surprised.

As soon as the two of them asked and answered, they had already used the dragon mentioned by Professor George to name the giant beast in the sea.

Curtis smiled confidently and said, "The first time Shanglong appeared, it was after our first attack on magical technology, and all the strike forces we sent were annihilated by Shanglong. ”

Van Diatt shook his head and said: "No, the B2 bomber was shot down by the anti-aircraft missile of the Aegis ship of the Three Kingdoms when Shanglong interfered with communications." ”

"You think it's simple, this is a magical technology that has shot down B2 with the help of anti-aircraft missiles from the three countries!"

Van Diatt pondered.

Curtis added: "Of course, this is all my speculation at present, as for whether it is true, it only depends on whether the Calvin Sound aircraft carrier formation will be attacked by Shanglong again after the detour."

General Van Diat, please immediately arrange for the equipment to be airlifted to the base of Diego Garcia, and arrange for the ships to be shipped, and then go to meet Calvinson.

General Harris, please inform Calvin that he is fully prepared when he receives the equipment, and if the dragon strikes, he must at least be able to inflict heavy damage on it! ”

Van Diatt and Harris looked at each other and did not raise any further objections.

"General Curtis, will I be able to go with that gear? This helped me to further my research on the dragon. Professor George suddenly raised his hand and said.

"Absolutely."

Curtis readily agreed, glanced at everyone present, and said, "Inform Laputos that the Stennis formation will withdraw to the base base for rest.

Harris, we may need the Rigan formation to immediately move south from the South China Sea to try to catch up with the Roth Suit formation to replace the Stennis formation.

The plan to close the iron wall is already on the way, please readjust the time of the plan to assemble the three fleets, and I need to inform His Excellency the Acting President in a timely manner. ”

"Okay, I'll reschedule the assembly as soon as I can."

After the meeting was dismissed, General Curtis returned to his office, and he briskly entered the lounge in the middle of the room, and took out a palm-sized tablet from the bedside table.

After entering the password, an animated image of the Big Bang flashed through the interface.

"How's the meeting going?"

A question suddenly appeared on the pitch-black screen.

Curtis said directly to the tablet: "I have corrected their idea of wanting to deal with sea beasts, and plan to count sea beasts on the head of magical technology.

This will make the losses our army have just suffered more motivating to support us in the fight against magical technology, and it will be easier to gain the support of our allies.

I re-re-recruited the aircraft carrier formation of the USS Rigan, and the time for the arrival of the new three fleets in the attack position will soon be determined. ”

"Very good, now due to the losses suffered by the Stennis battle group, the ironclad encirclement plan has to be revised, and there is no need to wait for the three fleets to be in place, and the third round of strikes will be directly adjusted to the first round of strikes!"

Curtis was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Lord, if you carry out a nuclear strike directly, we will be condemned by international public opinion......"

"Any condemnation pales in the face of great strength! Or, you don't want to follow my instructions? ”

A fine bead of sweat suddenly appeared on Curtis's forehead, and he immediately replied, "What the Lord says is the truth!" I will give the order directly to Captain Anderson of the Mali Blue, of course, the authorization code needs to be given by the acting president. ”

"The president of Ladakh is ready, the international security meeting will be held at 8 o'clock tonight, it is expected to take no more than two hours, and the first round of strikes will be scheduled for zero o'clock."

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
