Chapter 80: The Battle of Deserted Smoke Island

Although Qi Xiaoyang did not understand the strategy and tactics of the modern navy, his first goal was completely achieved. Fang looked at his lineup and concluded that this was a farce that added to the jokes, and they didn't need to worry about it at all, just waiting to see the jokes, and the commander of the Emerald Navy, Damm, even ridiculed Qijiang at the battle meeting for bringing him food, he arranged a pocket array in the sea area hundreds of nautical miles away from Deserted Smoke Island, first scattered the fleet in the surrounding seas, and only waited for Qijiang to get in, and then surrounded it, not to destroy the Qijiang fleet, but to capture all of them alive!

The Qijiang fleet sailed into a place two hundred nautical miles away from Deserted Smoke Island, and the deployment of the Emerald Country's forces was all under the control of Song Shiyue, because Qi Xiaoyang transferred two micro-controlled drones from the Lijiang base, and since yesterday they have been conducting roving reconnaissance in the predetermined combat area. Now the movements of the ships participating in the Emerald Country and the defense situation on Deserted Smoke Island are clear to Song Shiyue, and the feeling of being in control of the overall situation makes him, the commander-in-chief of the operation, very comfortable!

"Attention to the captains of all ships, the implementation of Plan No. 1 will begin in ten minutes, and all the combatants will be in place" Song Shiyue issued the first combat order.

Ten minutes later, in the temporary combat command room of the Emerald Navy, Dam looked at the three light spots on the radar display screen that suddenly began to move rapidly, and roared like a ghost: "What speed is this?! Hurry up and calculate the current movement speed of the enemy ship, fast!"

"Report to the general, the speed of the enemy ship is 32 levels, the direction is xxxxxx, and in front of it is the sea area where the frigate Neil and eight gunboats of our army are lurking!" a radar soldier quickly reported.

Damm roared: "Level 32! How is this possible! Order the fighter plane to take off immediately to intercept it, order the Neil to quickly move closer to the flagship, quickly!"

Although Dam's order was correct, it was unfortunately a little late. When the ship's radar detected three planes rushing towards the coast, Song Shiyue suddenly increased the speed of the fleet to level 38 and plunged directly into the front of the Neil's movement. Before the three fighters reached the sky above the fleet, one of them was directly blown up in the air by the short-range anti-aircraft missiles on the destroyer Qijiang No. 2, and the other two fled in a panic.

Under the absolute speed advantage of Qijiang, the Neil could not escape at all, and after half an hour, it entered the range of the Qijiang fleet and was forced to rush into battle. The Neil is also 600 tons, but it is just a discarded product of the Mi Army during World War II, and the gap between it and the modified Qijiang No. 1 and No. 2 is not a star and a half, not to mention that it is now launched with one enemy and two, and the artillery and torpedoes do not need money, but they can only splash countless waves around the Qijiang ship. Seeing that the distance was getting closer, the captain of the Neil had to order all eight gunboats and torpedo boats to attack, trying to delay the attack of Qijiang with the advantage of speed.

Eight annex boats rushed up in a V-shaped formation, this is exactly the result that Song Shiyue wanted, he wanted to destroy the minions of the Neil first, and then capture the Neil alive!" The second ship, rush forward at full speed!" With Song Shiyue's order, Qijiang No. 2 suddenly increased its speed and collided head-on with the gunboat group under artillery fire! The advantage of the gunboat itself is that the ship is small and fast, but in front of the Qijiang No. 2, the speed has become a joke, and it can only barely avoid the frontal impact, but two of them were overturned by the waves, and the other six couldn't dodge such a close-range torpedo strike at all, and it only took a few minutes for only a few minutes on the sea to leave only a piece of jade soldiers who jumped into the sea to escape!

"Kill, or save?" For these soldiers who lost their combat effectiveness, Song Shiyue shouldn't have made up his mind, and asked Qi Xiaoyang next to him.

"No. 2 stay and save people, after all, it's not a life-and-death feud. It's enough for Three to follow us to deal with the Neil. "Qi Xiaoyang is unwilling to make more killings.

The cost of the gunboat's total annihilation did not give the Neil time to escape, and the Qijiang One chased after each other in the blink of an eye. Although the Neil had been attacking frantically with naval guns and torpedoes, it was unable to hit the super-fast and strangely sailing Qijiang One. It wasn't until there was only a hundred meters left between the two ships that Song Shiyue gave the order to open fire -- focusing on the naval guns and machine guns of the Neil, suppressing the firepower, and ordering the No. 3 landing ship following behind to lean at full speed: "Lao Pan, it's up to you now, the shopkeeper said that he is responsible for helping you clean up the machine guns and heavy fire points, so that you can catch more work!"

"No problem, see if I can get them in fifteen minutes!" Pan Changfeng confidently boasted that he would use the landing ship as an assault boat, which was the first case in the history of naval warfare.

As soon as the No. 3 ship approached the Neil, the opponent's naval guns completely lost their threat, and they could only rely on machine guns to press the landing ship. The old Neil's turret and machine gun positions were exposed to the air, and only the gunner and machine gunner were protected by armor.

At this time, the advantages of Pan Changfeng's special combat team members were immediately fully demonstrated, and one by one the grappling hooks shot at the side of the Neil, and the soldiers pounced like eagles, facing the jade navy that was not good at close combat at all, it was like a lion pounced on a rabbit and a tiger into a flock

At this time, Qi Xiaoyang had already entered the command room of the Neil, and as soon as the two guards raised their guns, they were pierced through the wrists by two bullets from his hand, and the captain and the other two officers who looked like black monkeys were already frightened, and they raised their hands obediently without waiting for Qi Xiaoyang to speak, and the black captain shouted repeatedly: "Don't do it, we surrender, we surrender!"

Qi Xiaoyang confiscated all the guns on them, and then asked the black captain to order the whole ship to give up resistance, and he learned the language of the ghost temporarily, and it was okay to communicate simply. When the black captain ordered the surrender with the radio, it had already become an afterthought, and at this time, the whole ship had been occupied by Pan Changfeng's people, except for killing a few who dared to raise their guns, more than 100 people were all captured, and it was less than ten minutes since the landing ship launched the attack!

After rendezvous with the No. 2 ship that rescued the prisoners of war, more than 200 prisoners were gathered on the deck of the Neil, guarded by the Marine Battalion, and sailed to the supply ships waiting near the waters of China, while the three warships met the Kilang, the flagship of the Emerald Navy, which rushed to meet the Neil.

Although the Kilang is also a warship eliminated by the Mi Army, it is a thousand-ton cruiser, which has repeatedly made meritorious contributions in World War II, and after the Fei country took over, it was sent to the stick country for upgrading, and the attack and defense are much stronger than the Neil, plus there are two 500-ton frigates and more than a dozen gunboats and patrol boats, which is the backbone of the Emerald Navy.

Originally, according to Qi Xiaoyang's idea, it didn't take much effort to deal with the Kilang, as long as he was close to its range of one thousand meters, he could single-handedly kill it, get rid of the firepower that threatened the landing ship, and then the marine battalion could take it, but Song Shiyue resolutely disagreed with this, first, the air distance of thousands of meters, Qi Xiaoyang was easy to be attacked by the enemy's firepower, which was very dangerous, and he could not get the purpose of training troops in actual combat, once the officers and men of the fleet relied on Qi Xiaoyang's personal ability, the future battle would be very unfavorable。

Against the Kierang, according to the No. 2 plan formulated by Song Shiyue, he commanded the No. 1 ship to meet it head-on, and Qi Xiaoyang took the No. 2 and No. 3 ships to separate two nautical miles, and was responsible for flanking the two frigates of the Kilang in a roundabout way. This time, he didn't dare to have the idea of capturing him alive, so he could only pursue sinking the enemy ship as soon as possible.

After the two armies were separated by a kilometer, the No. 1 ship took the initiative to attack the Kierang, and the short-range missiles could not be consumed, so they could only use cheap torpedoes. The Kiran was equipped with a more advanced anti-torpedo system, and such attacks were largely ineffective. After entering the range of the ship's guns, the No. 1 ship was obviously invincible, and was damaged in less than ten minutes after the engagement, and turned the rudder to retreat laterally, and the Kielong pursued at full power.

After chasing dozens of nautical miles, the victorious Kiran and the frigate opened a gap of more than 10 nautical miles, when the No. 2 and No. 3 ships suddenly inserted from the flanks at a high speed of 40 magnitudes, almost destroyed one frigate with a short-range missile, and stopped the other from launching a fierce attack with torpedoes and naval guns. At this time, the difference in technology was manifested -- the Fei ship's torpedoes were all intercepted by Qijiang's advanced defense system, and at close range, the Fei ship could not block the torpedo attack at all, and it was hit in less than ten minutes before it began to tilt and sink; at this time, the Kirang, which wanted to turn back to the rescue, was dragged by the No. 1 ship that suddenly turned around and counterattacked, and was dizzy by its sudden burst of precise attack power, where can it return to the escort fleet!

More than a dozen gunboats and patrol boats scattered and fled under the onslaught of the No. 2 ship, and three of them were caught by the No. 3 ship that followed behind to pick up the leaks, and the No. 2 ship did not care about the other frigate that was blown up by missiles and stopped on the sea, and sailed at full speed towards the Kirang, forming a two-on-one front and rear flanking attack.

After using up all 20 anti-ship missiles on the ship, none of them hit, the Kierang became a target that Qijiang 12 circled at high speed, and under the accurate bombardment of the torpedoes at close range, the bottom compartment began to crack and enter the water, and it could not be carried, and it could not run away, and finally shouted for a truce, and raised a white flag asking for surrender on the flagpole. Song Shiyue ordered the attack to be stopped, shouted for the surrendered Fei soldiers to line up on the deck to disarm, sent people over to accept the control, and asked those jade soldiers to repair the damaged bottom warehouse.

This battle has only been about three hours from the beginning to now, and Dambu's pocket has been completely torn, the main combat force of the Emerald Navy's navy has been crushed, and nearly 600 soldiers have been captured, while the Qijiang fleet and ships have only suffered minor injuries. Ignoring the remnants of the Emerald Nation's fleet, Qijiang took the captured Kiran and headed straight for Deserted Smoke Island - the final battle of this little war.

A battalion of Emerald soldiers stationed on Desert Smoke Island had lost the support of the navy, and at this time they had become alone, and they could only be beaten, so the Fei government was anxious, and constantly contacted the commander of Qijiang through the communication equipment on the Kiran, asking for an armistice negotiation. Qi Xiaoyang was cold for a few hours, until the fleet arrived at Deserted Smoke Island, fired a few demonstrative shots on the island, and waited for the jade soldiers on the island to hurriedly raise the white flag, and all the officers and soldiers raised their hands and handed over their weapons to the beach by the sea, and then replied to the government of the Jade Country - if you want to negotiate, come here!
