Two fleets, one in front of the other, departed beyond the deep-sea habitat.

The heavy cruiser lady sailed over, looked at the young man's cold look, and stopped talking.

After a moment of silence, he still spoke, "Sir, can you give us back the Admiral?"

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Give it back to you?"

"Yes. ”

Jiang Yan asked, "But why did she pounce on me?"

"This..." The heavy cruiser's voice froze.

Jiang Yan remembered that before she knocked Alice unconscious, her pleading eyes left no room for words: "It's very simple, because in her heart, you are not a semi-stranger who is reliable." ”

This sentence was not only heard by the heavy cruiser mother, but also passed into the ears of the rest of the ship's mother.

"The departure of Shancheng and Abekrombi is your own decision!" Jiang Yan said coldly: "In the case of the Admiral going out with the team, making decisions without permission and not obeying the Admiral's orders, what is such a fleet going to do?"

Alice's shipwives were stunned, and the heavy cruiser lady explained, "Both flagships think this is the most correct choice..."

"You think so too!" Jiang Yan felt the need to teach these shipwives a lesson, the quality of their own shipwives was too far behind, and said: "The admiral's order always takes precedence over the flagship, even if it is a wrong choice, it must be carried out, don't you understand this?"

The faces of the eleven ship girls suddenly turned pale, Jiang Yan's words hit the nail on the head, and even their thoughts at that time were completely insightful.

Giving up Shancheng and Abekrombi is indeed the best choice, even Jiang Yan does not deny it, but ignoring the commander's order and letting the ship's mother make the decision, this is already beyond his duty.

At this point, the eleven shipwresses were speechless for a moment, and the heavy cruiser swagger returned to their queue with her head down.

In the Jiang family's fleet, Rodney remembered his own proposal in the island group yesterday, and then thought of the young master's words, and his face turned a little pale.

Jiang Yan looked at her face from behind, and said with a headache: "Lao Luo, I didn't say you just now, you are much more obedient." ”

Rodney bowed his head and said, "Young Master, it was my fault yesterday. ”

"No, no, no, I still like you like that very much, otherwise how can I see how much you like me. ”

"Young Master!"

Rodney's originally pale face suddenly turned a layer of ruddy, and he looked left and right, and found that Lexington and Helena were looking at her, and his ears became hot for a while.

Jiang Yan held Alice in his arms and sat on the ship's armor plate, and at noon, the two fleets arrived at the edge of the habitat.

At this time, Lexington said, "Admiral, I'm going to send fighter jets." ”

"Fighters?"

Jiang Yan only has a very basic understanding of the operations of the aircraft carrier mother, and yesterday he flipped through the books he brought and found that there are very few types in this area.

When he went back, the emperor had to look through the Jiang family's book collection.

"Yes, the children are trailed by two light mother-class perch ships with deep-sea fighters and bombers that cannot be recovered in this area. ”

"And the fuel is insufficient, there can be no more detours, and air combat must be carried out to annihilate the other side in order to recover. ”

Jiang Yan asked, "What about Utopia and Abekrombi?"

"Fantasy is pulling Abekrombi forward this way, about half as fast as we are. ”

As he spoke, several high-altitude reconnaissance planes appeared at the end of the field of vision and slowly landed on the deck of the aircraft carrier.

Only half of the ten sorties returned, three of them were shot down, and two ran out of fuel and could not come back.

Lexington looked distressed, waved his right hand, and twenty golden fighters ran across the deck and flew into the air in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Alice's ship girls all froze in shock.

Carrier mother.

I don't know if it's a light carrier or an aircraft carrier, the ship girls are more inclined to the former, but even so, it's the first time they've seen the light mothership's plane attack up close.

・・・

Under the gloomy sky of the perch, twenty golden fighters shuttled between the fifty-five bombers, and went straight to meet the deep-sea fighters.

The number of deep-sea fighters is only about thirty, and they are inferior to the golden fighters in terms of flexibility and firepower.

In just one shot, more than half of the deep-sea fighters were shot down.

Seeing this, the light mother-class perch ship hurriedly changed its tactics and used bombers to cover the fighters (cannon fodder), so that the deep-sea fighters had more room to detour, and the air battle entered a stalemate.

Continuous machine-gun sounds resounded in the sky, fuchsia and golden rays shuttled and staggered, bullets sprayed from both sides intertwined, and from time to time deep-sea bombers and fighters fell.

"Air supremacy confirmed!"

Lexington, who was far away on the edge of the habitat, said with a sigh of relief.

She summoned only twenty fighters this time, and if the other party has the rest of the light mother-class ships to support her, it will be difficult to say air supremacy.

Once air supremacy is lost, the bombers sent out are bound to be completely wiped out and cannot be recovered.

If it is recovered, it is to take the enemy to find its own position, and the bomber following behind the deep-sea fighter will not hesitate to blow it up.

Similarly, on the deep-sea side, without the escort of fighters, the bombers did not dare to continue the attack, and the two light mother-class perching ships hurriedly recovered the attacking bombers.

Otherwise, they will shoot down all enemy fighters on the way.

The fighters and bombers that attacked here quickly flew back, losing 5 fighters, and after Lexington recovered, a magic array suddenly bloomed on the deck of the aircraft carrier, and then shattered into pieces and disappeared.

The aircraft carrier, which had been several times larger, was turned back into a board that was tied to Lexington's waist, and only the runway above the deck left traces of friction.

"Admiral, the children have done their best. ”

"Can't you strike again?"

"The consumption this time is more serious than the last time, and neither fuel nor bullets can support a sortie~"

The corners of Jiang Yan's mouth twitched, didn't this sentence clearly tell him that he would eat more aluminum this time?

Yesterday I replenished 465 units of aluminum at a time, and this time, looking at Lexington's smiling appearance, I'm afraid it won't be less than 600 units.

Jiang Yan could only ask the heavy cruiser to send a water reconnaissance plane, and the fleet was lined up in formation, each responsible for guarding one side.

Fortunately, until the afternoon, there was no trace of the deep-sea perching ship.

Utopia succeeded in converging with the fleet with Abrolambi.

Immediately, the two fleets returned to the port of operation, and Alice's shipwives could not be resupplied due to the admiral's sleepiness.

Jiang Yan simply gave the order on his behalf, let them all enter the repair pool, and then replenished his ship's mother.

Except for Lexington, the other five ships also consumed some heavy fuel, and in the absence of an attack, they did not need to be replenished immediately.

This is mainly due to Jiang Yan's consideration of his physical condition.

So he only supplied Lexington, and the amount of aluminum needed, Jiang Yan had the urge to faint when he saw it.

1100 units.

"How can there be so many?" Jiang Yan said in a lost voice.

PS: The aluminum count is different~
