Chapter 126: Ghosts Under the Sea
"Captain, that human fleet is not panicking, it has already set up a formation, are we going to attack them again? If we are stronger, even if we can defeat them, we should have some ......casualties," asked the petite shipwreck with the highest ability to hunt for the enemy in the Xiliang fleet, frowning.

Not far away, the young woman who had already released her hull muttered, "It's about to enter the range of both sides, and now it's ready to fire." Besides, even if there are some casualties, it is nothing, as long as they are wiped out, it will be a great achievement. ”
"However, the other side not only has one hundred and twenty warships, but there is also a fleet of more than twenty warships in the distance. This fleet is good, with several third-order warships. And looking at their appearance, they have no intention of escaping, and they may join the battle at any time! ”
"Don't worry, in general, we still have the advantage. However, this fleet has to be guarded, if they want to join the battle during the melee, you don't care about anything, immediately lead five ship girls to drag them down. When I defeat those 120 ships, I will go to your aid and make them look good! ”
At the end, the young woman's face showed a strong sense of confidence. The source of her confidence was the nearly thirty third-order warships under her hands, so many third-order warships, no human empire could make them up!
Bang!
As the guns rang out, the battleships and heavy cruisers of both sides at the forefront of the formation were already exchanging fire. This scene, like a sudden storm, caused the calm sea to set off stormy waves.
On the side of the Qianlong Empire's representative fleet, there were more than forty warships in the first echelon, and they were all battleships and heavy cruisers with strong firepower. Now they fired together, and the shells in the sky were like black sparrows, all flying towards the fleet of the Xiliang Army. If it weren't for the fact that the battleships on the Xiliang Army's side had reached the third order and had a very high durability, I was afraid that they would have been stupid by this scene.
It's just a pity that there aren't so many ifs. Although the salvo here was indeed a bit unexpected by the young woman, she was not too worried. Moreover, almost at the same time that the Qianlong Empire opened fire on behalf of the fleet, they also fired!
It is true that there are not many battleships and heavy cruisers on their side, only fourteen, but the number of shells fired will not be much less. And the average power of each shell is far above the other side!
Seeing the flying shells, Wren, Prince Bolun and others were dumbfounded. Wren couldn't help but exclaim: "...... How can they shoot so many shells? ”
Although he said this, in fact, he already knew the answer in his heart, and the ship's mother, who was on a reconnaissance mission before the firefight, reported to him that there were three bombers on the Wandering Ship's side!
Without waiting for their surprise to continue, shells from both sides had already hit the target. Suddenly, explosions came and went, and the skyrocketing flames scattered throughout the battlefield......
On the Wandering Ship Niang's side, most of the more than a dozen battleships that rushed in front were hung up, except for a few ironclad ships and ironclad cruisers that were good at defense, the others were either broken or broken.
However, as the commander of this fleet, the young woman was not disappointed when she saw this situation, but was very happy. Originally, she thought that in this round of bombardment, most of her side would have one or two warships sunk, but she didn't expect that there would be no casualties!
On the other hand, on the human fleet, it is much more miserable, and the original more than forty battleships and heavy cruisers are now only a little more than half. In other words, in the round of artillery fire just now, they were sunk a full twenty battleships! These are all capital ships with a lot of firepower!
"Hahaha, we've already won half of this battle." The young woman couldn't help laughing, and then ordered: "The battleships and heavy cruisers immediately disperse, let the light cruisers go up." At the same time, order the destroyers on both wings to press up and attack freely, whether it is missiles or torpedoes, give me the mission to hit! Sink another twenty or thirty of their warships, and those human admirals will definitely start to flee......"
Before her words could fall, there was a sudden boom, and the two battleships not far from her suddenly exploded, and then slowly sank......
"This ...... What's going on? The young woman's eyes widened suddenly, and she couldn't react, she didn't see that a shell hit the two battleships, how could they explode in a good way?
But soon, she knew what was going on, and she only heard the anxious voice of the reconnaissance ship's mother suddenly coming from the audio receiver: "It's a submarine, it's a submarine, everyone be careful, there are submarines under the sea!" ”
"Why didn't you say earlier that there were submarines? Did you know that it was the Dreadnought Hu Chi'er and the Powerful bomber that were sunk just now, and they are the main firepower output of our fleet! The young woman roared, no longer steady.
Of course, she is not to blame for being so angry, if she had known that there were enemy submarines underwater, she would definitely have assigned several cruisers and destroyers with anti-submarine capabilities to protect these two warships. After all, in the shelling just now, these two battleships suffered the most serious damage, not only were they all broken, but their durability also dropped to a critical point. If there is the protection of anti-submarine warfare ships, it will not be attacked by submarines, let alone sunk because of it.
But it's too late to say anything.
was scolded by the young woman for slashing her head and covering her face, and the lady of the reconnaissance ship felt very aggrieved and said that she was suffering.
The reason why she didn't spot the submarine in the first place was because the submarine had been hiding 500 meters below the sea surface, a distance that would have been impossible to detect if she hadn't deliberately probed with towed sonar. Not long ago, when this submarine attacked its own warship, although it floated to within 200 meters of the water, because the two fleets were bombarding each other at that time, who would notice her?
What's even worse is that the missiles launched by this submarine are very strange, and there is no warning in advance, as if they can be invisible. If it weren't for this, she would definitely be able to find out in advance and remind the Hu Chi'er and the Powerful to take countermeasures, so that they would not be directly sunk by surprise.
In short, the reconnaissance ship lady felt that she could not blame herself for this incident, but only that the submarine was too weird and too good at seizing the opportunity!
Just as they were about to determine the exact position of the submarine and launch torpedoes and anti-submarine missiles to attack, the submarine had already begun to sink, and after a while, it hid 500 meters below the surface of the sea and gradually lost its trace......
After learning of this situation, the young woman's face turned red with anger, but she still gave a calm order: "All reconnaissance ships immediately release towing sonar, even if you can't pull out that submarine, you must avoid the recurrence of what happened just now!" ”
