Chapter 121 Light Mother-class Habitat Ship
Low-flying bombers make perfect use of the island to avoid the sight of deep-sea dwellers.
When the golden light flickered, the general flagship of the Lanelli habitat, the golden battle-class perch with command, sailed out of the last line of defense.
Before they could reconnoiter the direction of the attack, a group of bombers swept overhead at high speed, and with a more agile body, they made a maneuver in mid-air and quickly left.
Leave only enough bombs to cover the sky!
Rumble!
"How?"
Jiang Yan heard the voice and immediately asked.
Lexington pursed his lips and chuckled, "Admiral, this bombing attack is even more sudden than the last time, if you don't sink the fleet where the general flagship is located, the children will blame themselves~"
"Three five-star class battle-class habitat ships, two light mother-class habitat ships, and one heavy cruiser-class habitat ship, sunk!"
Jiang Yan's expression was relieved, no matter how good the other five perching ships were, as long as the flagship was blown up and sunk, he said, "Retreat for the time being." โ
Evacuate a certain distance and wait for the Imperial fleet to completely expel the deep-sea habitat ships, and then you can go back to salvage.
However, before the fleet left, Lexington's smile narrowed a lot, and he said with a serious expression: "Admiral, a deep-sea fleet is chasing after you." โ
Jiang Yan was stunned, why did the deep-sea perching ship chase after it if he didn't run quickly?
When he opened his mouth, he asked, "How much?"
"Only one has been observed at the moment. โ
The bombers had long been unable to see further back on the way to recovery, and Lexington wanted to send a high-altitude reconnaissance plane, but Firefly added: "Admiral, only one of the bombers is coming." โ
"Can you fight?"
"I think it's better not to. Firefly hesitated a little and said, "The deep-sea habitat ship seems to have changed the direction of evacuation, and the route is closer to our side. โ
"Trouble!"
Jiang Yan couldn't help muttering, he seemed to have overlooked the time lag between the first group of retreating deep-sea habitat ships and the deep-sea habitat ships that had resisted at the rear and had been abandoned.
After thinking about it, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "Continue to evacuate, I don't believe that they will give up running for their lives and continue to chase after them, and the fireflies pay attention to the new evacuation route of the deep-sea habitat ship." โ
Lexington thought the same way, which is why he did not make a proposal to abandon the bomber.

Shout!
Behind the blue-gray bombing fuselage, a number of prismatic fuchsia fuselages rose into the air and began to attack the enemy planes in front.
On the sea, Lexington's beautiful eyes condensed slightly, and said: "I was targeted by a light mother-class perching ship, and the target should be me." โ
The bomber's reconnaissance aircraft have low capabilities, and it has not been possible to judge the composition of the deep-sea habitat ship that is tracked before, and the firefly's envoy has only detected a deep-sea fleet to track, and there is no five-star level habitat ship among them.
Now, I've finally figured out one of them.
Light mother-class perch!
Jiang Yan asked, "In your current state, can you occupy air supremacy?"
"No, this time there is no shortage of carrier-based fighters, there are still ten bombers and five high-altitude reconnaissance planes left to use, and there is no way to compete for air supremacy with the restored light mother-class perch. โ
"Fireflies, if you fight in the sea area now, is it safe enough?"
The firefly hesitated for a moment and said, "After the battle, we must immediately transfer and change course, otherwise we will not be able to run away if a high-speed enemy ship is chasing." โ
Jiang Yan looked at Lexington again, "Are you sure that the target of the Light Mother-class perch ship is you?"
"Make sure that the children can feel the hostility of the other person. โ
"Then start the war on the spot!"
Jiang Yan ordered: "Deploy the wheel-shaped formation to ensure that the spacing is not superimposed by the bombing impact, and at the same time, you can cover the airpower in mid-air to the greatest extent and shoot down the bombers!"
"Rodney, take me to the back of the formation, and hand over to Lexington in the middle of the flagship. โ
"Yes!"
The ten ships, forming a large wheel-shaped formation, began to adjust their gun muzzles.
With long-range and medium-range guns, the ship's main firepower is the air's main firepower, and the five destroyers are all located on the front of the wheel, and the torpedoes are ready.
Jiang Yan hugged Rodney's waist, his eyes were clear, and he felt that the surroundings suddenly became silent, and the sound of the waves and the sea breeze seemed to be half removed, so that the sound of his heart beating gently could be heard clearly.
The threat of a light mother-class perch ship is greater than that of the total flagship fleet of deep-sea habitats.
Woohoo!
A strange voice came into his ears from a distance, Jiang Yan's eyes were solemn, and he said loudly:
"It's coming. โ
Lexington's eyes gradually cooled, a light mother-class habitat ship, actually wanted to challenge the regular aircraft carrier, if it wasn't for the previous round of annihilation, just with the number and strength of the bombers, just a light mother-class habitat ship would not want to jump.
The remaining ten bombers took off accompanied by a high-altitude reconnaissance plane, saying: "Rodney, Oklahoma, counterattack, albeit with fire on the children!"
Rodney was slightly stunned, and then said, "Yes!"
Cannonballs, instantly blasted out of the ship's main guns!
At the same time, the blue bomber, which was being chased by the deep-sea fighters behind him, received the command and dived down to the surface of the sea tremblingly, gaining faster speed at this moment.
But this is a very dangerous behavior.
The bathshithers behind them can do the same, gain more speed, and then deliver a round of covering attacks on enemy aircraft that are already below in front of them.
And at the moment when the deep-sea battle received the order and was about to execute, more than a dozen shells were fired at high speed in front of him.
The shells carried out a stagnant trajectory in the air.
Boom Boom!
In the sky, a small explosion suddenly occurred.
Many fighters avoided the shells, but the deep-sea bombers further behind did not have time to dodge and were hit by the indiscriminate shells.
"Go on, there's one more round!"
The advantage of the long-range main gun was fully demonstrated in the battle against the air, and soon it was another round of shells against the air.
The number of deep-sea planes, which numbered more than 40, was shot down by two rounds of artillery fire, and many of them had dropped to about 30 after a rough sweep.
Entering the medium-range range, Helena's four main guns fired more than a dozen shells, and hit a few more, and in the next round, Helena and the firefly and other five destroyers fired together, shooting down more.
By the time the enemy planes were diving, there were less than fifteen bombers left, and the firepower of the remaining fighters was relatively limited.
This result has completely exceeded expectations.
It's just that the threat is still deadly to the fleet, and this number of bombers is enough to sink any battleship.
And the target of these dozen or so deep-sea bombers and fighters is actually only one.
Aircraft carrier Lexington!
The defense capability of the soul of the Lexington battleship is much worse than that of Oklahoma, and it simply cannot withstand this wave of attacks.
Jiang Yan's heart thumped nervously, "Oklahoma, protect her!"
"Yes!"
Oklahoma, who was already arranged next to her, immediately pounced on Lexington, trying to protect her.
Lexington, however, moved slightly, letting Oklahoma look at the bombers and escort fighters that had swooped down.
"Just a light mother-class perching ship!"
