Chapter Seventy-Seven: Purple Heavy Patrol
As Lexington said, the storm is the ship's worst enemy when sailing.
Even deep-sea habitat ships are ranked behind this natural weather, because the former is a trouble that you will find yourself, and the latter is a trouble that will come if you don't look for it.
Except for battleship mothers like Rodney, and Lexington, as an aircraft carrier mother, can stand firm on the sea, the rest of the shipwrecks are afraid that they will be carried away by the waves immediately, and if you want to stand firm, you need extremely high sailing skills.
And this point, only Rodney in the Jiang fleet can do it at present, and when the two are added, that is, Rodney has the ability to sail in storms.
In addition, Rodney also has some artillery aiming skills, even in storms.
Even in the fleet of the Yaslan Empire, there are very few ship girls with this ability and skill to talk about.
Jiang Yan suddenly stopped in the woods, and he thought of this from Lexington's words.
Since this is the case with the ship's mother, the same is true for the deep-sea habitat ship, from the admiral's biography and history, there are also many admirals who were forced to a dead end by the deep-sea habitat ship, so as to enter the sea area where the storm occurred, and finally crossed the sea area with luck and perseverance, and successfully escaped.
The deep-sea habitat ship will not enter the sea area where the storm occurs, this is the consensus of all the admirals and the ship's mother, and the only explanation is naturally that the deep-sea habitat ship is the same as the ship's mother, afraid of the storm, so it only dares to wander outside.
"So, if there is a constant storm inside the Lithri habitat, will it be an opportunity to defeat their main force?"
Jiang Yan grabbed his thoughts at once, there are still two and a half months to go, if he always pays attention to the weather conditions in the depths of the habitat, he may be able to make more use of it.
Syllable!
The big droplets of water fell on Jiang Yan's face along the strong wind, and the cold feeling woke him up.
There was also a mixed footstep behind him, it was the ship's mother who was on guard around the island by Alice, and had to go ashore because of the storm.
"Let's go!" Jiang Yan said.
・・・
The storm raged for three days, and Jiang Yan was a little skeptical that the island would be swept away, or that the port of operation would collapse.
But what made him even more embarrassed than these was that even if they were built under the hillside, the wooden houses they had built were not spared, and all of them were destroyed.
The Jiang family's fleet is now under the fence, living on Alice's house built of steel, not to mention how miserable it is when it moves.
Although Alice was pale, she deliberately put on a look of "Miss Ben is merciful, pity the poor water dog" every day, and she should be more proud and proud.
Jiang Yan's mood was just the opposite of her.
As soon as the storm had passed, Helena and the others were asked to bring steel from the river to build a house, and they did not set out until the fifth day.
"Go to the Central Sea. Jiang Yan directly ordered and stopped Lexington's preparations to let ten reconnaissance planes attack together.
"Starting today, reconnaissance aircraft carry out the exploration of the sea area inside the habitat, leaving a small part of the escort. ”
Lexington seemed to understand what the Admiral meant, nodded, and after reaching the central front of the habitat, he sent ten high-altitude reconnaissance planes to the depths of the habitat at once.
The Jiang fleet stayed on the surface of the sea and did not move until another sortie of ten high-altitude reconnaissance planes.
Jiang Yan asked, "Shot down?"
"Three were shot down, seven ran out of fuel. Lexington said seriously and began to adjust the flight path of the high-altitude reconnaissance plane and continue to reconnoitre.
Three hours passed, and there was also no reconnaissance plane returning, and Jiang Yan learned that Lexington's reconnaissance method, although it sacrificed the body, that is, its own aluminum, but the reconnaissance efficiency was the highest.
"That's all for today, it's going to be night, go back and make the charts for me. Jiang Yan said.
"Hmm. ”
"Have you found the battlecruiser-class perching ship?" Jiang Yan asked again.
"I spotted it an hour ago, and now I don't know where I'm going. ”
"Forget it, go to the periphery and find the heavy cruiser-class perch. ”
The fleet had just sailed, and before it could increase its speed, Lexington suddenly turned around and said, "Admiral, a fleet of three heavy cruisers, has come out from the depths. ”
"The heavy cruiser-class habitat ships inside?" Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and said, "The strength of the deep-sea habitat ships in the depths of the habitat is higher, and the strength of the ten fleets that guarded the central stronghold last time has not reached that level. ”
"Take on this deep-sea fleet. ”
"Yes!"
Twenty minutes later, a deep-sea fleet appeared at the end of the field of vision.
It can be clearly seen that the heavy patrol flagship in the middle of the single horizontal array has a faint purple glow around its body, and its uncovered right eye is flashing with danger.
The shaped cannon shield in his hand was absorbing the purple rays around it every moment, as if it could strike a deadly attack at any time.
Such a deep-sea fleet sailed towards this side with an invincible momentum, and there was not the slightest hesitation felt from them.
"Four-star class heavy cruiser-class perch. Jiang Yan's face became solemn.
Such a heavy cruiser-class perch ship can sink a well-equipped light cruiser with just one shot.
This is the scene that Jiang Yan saw with his own eyes when he was in the habitat of Pumlitor and obtained a fantasy vision.
"Lao Luo, sink this heavy cruiser-class perch. ”
"Lexington, bombers ready, on standby. ”
Jiang Yan even felt that the threat of this flagship was greater than that of the battleships he had encountered before, the battlecruiser-class perch.
But even so, he didn't let Lexington bomb it, and if he had such intentions, he would have let her send planes long before the enemy ships were in sight.
Lexington is a strategic-level shipwit, and once a war starts, her actions must have strategic significance.
The "small fights" on the small battlefield, if she also wants to help, then unless the Jiang family fleet has a hundred and ten ships, it will never be possible to attack the next new habitat.
Of course, this is an order that was implemented only after there was a formation of ships.
With the filling of the Z1, Lexington can be eliminated from the formation and become a team of its own, and the preparation of bombers at this time is for the purpose of skimming the formation.
The two sides were at a medium distance, five enemy ships were in range, and three of their own ships were in range.
Fantasy and Firefly rushed out one after another, followed by Z1.
On the side of the deep-sea fleet, a destroyer-class habitat ship rushed out, and the rest of the habitat ships had already begun to adjust the angle of shelling.
A single horizontal formation, although the flagship is exposed, but this formation can effectively dodge the incoming torpedo, or directly break the torpedo halfway.
Moreover, it is convenient to concentrate fire on the salvo.
Rumble!
The enemy ships were still adjusting the angle of their shelling, and nearly ten guns had exploded here, and the shells jumped over the three destroyers in front of them and landed in the enemy formation.
