Chapter 39: A Den of Thieves? Fortress?
On the sea, eight warships were sailing in the direction of Modoc Island. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info But they didn't go to Modoc Island, but to a smaller island farther away, where the pirates lived.
Among these eight warships, except for the Fengxian, the other seven have signed contracts with Bai Lingfeng, including the Mingxue and Yushun. However, at this time, Bai Ling was standing on the bow of the Fengxian, and seemed to regard her as the flagship of this fleet.
After the previous battle, the Phoenix and Mingxue absorbed a lot of soul energy, and their levels were both improved. Especially the Mingxue, because of the relatively low level of the original, this time it was actually upgraded by four levels, from Lv10 to Lv14, and the computing power has also changed from 100 to 140!
As a result, she already has excess computing power allocated to other ships except the "Zhuge Repeater", such as K2 torpedo tubes and Micro-1 anti-aircraft guns. However, the two pieces of equipment, the ZZW multi-function radar and the Bat III sonar, still do not have enough computing power to operate.
But in any case, her overall strength has improved a lot, and she has another means of attack - torpedoes.
The Fengxian has not improved her level much, only two levels, from Lv19 to Lv21, but if you really want to talk about it, she has increased her strength more than Mingxue. Because after the level breaks through Lv20, the hull can be strengthened to the second order!
However, it will take some time to strengthen the hull, and now that we are in a hurry to attack the pirate lair, we will maintain the original state for the time being.
"You're the three leaders of that gang of pirates, aren't you? Let's talk about what is the situation of your lair now, how many warships are in it, what is the defense ability, and who is the leader who stays behind. ā
Bai Lingfeng asked calmly. In front of him, a tall, thin middle-aged pirate, the wind and sand made the skin on his face pitted, somewhat hideous.
However, contrary to his appearance, his personality is very timid, or rather afraid of death. Ever since he was captured, he has been begging Bai Lingfeng to let him go.
Now seeing Bai Lingfeng asking himself, he didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately replied: "Lord Admiral, there are no more elven warships in Huludao, only some ordinary sea ships. Every time he acts, the big boss will bring out all the elven warships, and this time is no exception. As for the people who stayed on the island, it was the second leader, Saeki, and more than a hundred pirates. ā
"No battleships?" Bai Lingfeng was slightly stunned, and continued to ask, "What about the defense system on the island?" ā
"This ......" The tall and thin three leaders seemed to have some concerns and were reluctant to answer.
Seeing this, Bai Lingfeng smiled faintly, "When I enter Huludao later, I will tie you to the deck, if my fleet is attacked fiercely, it is very likely that you will be the first to be killed." ā
The three leaders were frightened, and hurriedly said: "Lord Admiral, don't lead the fleet to break in, almost all the wealth we have looted over the years has been spent on the defense system, not to mention that there are only a few warships of yours, even if there are a hundred, it will be difficult to break in!" ā
"Oh? Why, aren't there no warships on the island? Bai Lingfeng became serious.
The three chiefs hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke, "Although there are no warships, three thousand anti-aircraft guns are installed on the island, which constitutes an extremely strong air defense system. In addition to this, there are more than five hundred main turrets, on which heavy artillery is mounted. More than 300 of them were installed on the main island, and the remaining 200 or so were installed on the reefs on both sides of the access channel, and if any enemy ships attacked through that channel, they would be immediately bombarded to pieces by these guns! ā
"So many artillery?" Bai Lingfeng was taken aback, "Are you going to make it a military fortress?" ā
"This is all the idea of the big leader...... "The third leader said embarrassedly, "Actually, the big leader is a talent, if it weren't for him, we would have been exterminated by others a long time ago." ā
"Huh." Bai Lingfeng smiled noncommittally, but in his heart he was thinking about how to conquer it.
If that island is as terrifying as people say, there is no hope of storming it, then......
Bai Lingfeng's mind began to run rapidly. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said with a smile: "Third Leader, that Liaohua-class battleship used to be your flagship, right?" ā
"Yes, Admiral." The three leaders nodded, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Yes, how about you sail at the front on that battleship and take us into Huludao? You're the three leaders of that gang of pirates, so they shouldn't shoot at your fleet for no reason, right? Bai Lingfeng smiled.
The three leaders trembled, and finally reacted, and said in surprise: "You...... You want me to help you evade the defenses and go straight to the interior of Huludao! ā
"Very smart, I don't know if you're willing to do it?"
ā¦ā¦
Fifteen minutes later, the formation of the eight battleships underwent some changes. Originally, the Fengxian, Mingxue and Yushun were sailing at the front, but at this time, the one sailing at the front became the Liaohua-class No. 2 ship Huachun. This was followed by the Leibo-class heavy cruisers, the Zhangheng-class heavy cruisers, the Hanzhong-class light cruisers, and the Lezhuo-class light cruisers.
All five ships have one thing in common, that is, not so long ago, they were all ships of the pirate side.
There are both familiar people and familiar warships, and it should not be a problem to safely sail into the interior of Huludao.
In order to prevent the pirates on these five battleships from defecting, Bai Lingfeng deliberately asked the shipwrecks on the battleships to follow them closely, and as long as they found that these pirates had any abnormal movements, they would be killed immediately. Don't forget, the current admiral of these five ship mothers is Bai Lingfeng!
"Isn't that really going to be a problem?"
The Phoenix frowned, his expression a little solemn. She also heard what the three leaders said just now, thinking that there were more than five hundred main turrets installed on that small island, she felt a chill, if Bai Lingfeng's strategy failed, her own people would definitely be blasted into smithereens!
"Rest assured, unless the pirates I arranged are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of others, my plan will not fail. In my opinion, a few of them are not so noble. Moreover, I have promised them that I will give them a sum of money and let them go as long as they succeed in helping us. For this, I also swore a poisonous oath to the god of the sea. ā
Bai Lingfeng said confidently.
"Swear?" The corners of Fengxian's mouth twitched, feeling a little funny.
Bai Lingfeng nodded, "The Sea God is their belief. ā
Anyway, in the end, the Phoenix believed him and decided to take a risk with him. If it was replaced by other admirals, she would definitely not agree hastily, but for some reason, she would always be full of confidence when facing Bai Lingfeng.
