Chapter 177: Two Letters

"There are no carrier-class perch ships!"

Catching up with the retreating Imperial fleet, Jiang Yan said from the top of the navy on the deck of the steel battleship and the fleet.

"Rear Admiral Jiang Yan, what you said is true?" a vice admiral half-incredulously asked, it was too unusual for such a large deep-sea fleet to not have an air-carrier-class perch.

But Jiang Yan has an aircraft carrier, and he deliberately fell behind to see it in person, and what he said was absolutely convincing.

"Although I dare not guarantee it, it is true that not a single carrier-class perch ship was seen, and even carrier-based bombers did not appear. ”

Jiang Yan said.

Vice Admiral Sil of the reconnaissance fleet was suddenly startled, and also said: "From the intelligence statistics obtained from the sunken reconnaissance fleet ship Niang, the direct admiral, there is no mention of the attack of the aircraft carrier-class ship Niang. ”

"That's weird. ”

Nelson has been unarmed, and she and Rodney have shown great firepower in resolving a crisis for the Imperial fleet.

Let the Imperial fleet under his command be admired by the whole world.

"First retreat to the Moa Islands and join the fleets of the other three empires, the current deep-sea fleet is too concentrated, expand the sea area to see if it can drag each other apart. ”

"Yes. ”

The impromptu meeting was quickly dissolved, and the top brass of the Navy were busy going back to reorganize their fleet, which had now withdrawn from dangerous distances, and the reconnaissance of deep-sea habitat ships, interfering with routes, and other work were very urgent.

The sea outside the anti-tide circle is relatively narrow, and if you retreat to the Moa Islands, which are two days away, the sea area becomes much wider.

If deep-sea habitat ships want to occupy such a large sea area, they will generally disperse their combat power.

This is also the fleet's method of clearing the new habitat, the difference is that this time the combat power is not as much as the enemy.

When clearing the new habitat, it is to break each one, and then force the enemy to collide with oneself. This time, they didn't dare to touch each other, if the other party didn't disperse their combat forces or simply sailed over, they could only evacuate with ordinary people and supplies and abandon the Moa Islands.

Join forces with these fleet forces in the middle circle of the sea burial ground?

This is not at all in the consideration of the top brass of the four imperial fleets, these fleet forces have no foundation in the continent, and they cannot be restrained at all.

Moreover, at a certain important moment, it is impossible to make them sacrifice in exchange for a chance to win.

This is in the Imperial Fleet, even if the Admiral and the ship's mother are unwilling, but once the order is given, it must be completed.

The navy's top brass would rather abandon their strongholds and lose more supplies than agree to unite with the fleet forces in the sea burial grounds.

The slightest concession on the part of the Imperial fleet would increase the arrogance of these fleets.

・・・

In the middle of the Moa Islands, there is a small island.

The island is only a shallow outcrop of water, made entirely of sand, also known as the Central Beach, where almost every meeting between the four empires takes place.

There were eight seats at each of the round tables, with Layla and Nelson sitting two, and the other six were the royals and admirals of the other three empires.

"Admiral Nelson and Rodney have joined forces, amazing combat power, I am finally fortunate to have seen it, and this time it should be you who have suffered the least losses, and I am here to express my gratitude for the rescued subordinates. ”

The admiral of the Saint Sia Empire said with a teacup.

"Admiral Warner, please wait until you talk about these private matters, let's quickly work out a strategic policy, even if there are pirates in the middle, the deep-sea fleet is only a day's voyage from the Moa Islands. ”

Said the prince of the Özik Empire.

Between the anti-tide circle and the Moa Islands, there is not only one sea area empty, but there are also many islands occupied by fleet forces.

When the four imperial fleets decided to base themselves in the Moa Islands, which were two days away, they used the forces of these fleets as a buffer to buy time for their own side.

Originally, the fleet forces in the middle circle of the sea burial ground were also very smart, and they could see that they were tired, but nothing happened in these years, and the depths of the sea burial ground were even pushed to the island of the stars of the Dailuofu.

The middle circle is naturally more dangerous, so the closer the islands are to the anti-tide circle, they have become fragrant and sweet, and have become ports and bases for many fleet forces.

This time, all of them suffered.

The island's defensive forces did not have time to evacuate at all, so they were attacked by the deep-sea fleet and quickly taken.

Originally, the Imperial Fleet was less than thirty minutes away from the Deep Sea Fleet outside the anti-tide circle, and because of the buffer of these islands, there was a day of preparation.

The prince of the Airo Empire spoke: "I suggest that everyone retreat, things have already exceeded expectations, there is no need to start a war with the deep-sea fleet, lose combat power in vain, and wait for the empire's support fleet to arrive, and then attack and come back." ”

As soon as these words came out, the high-level people present and the surrounding escort fleet couldn't help but look sideways.

The crown prince of an empire, how dare you say it!

If this is accidentally revealed, it will be known to the admirals and people of the empire, and it is likely to lose prestige.

Layla thought about it for a while, and said: "Retreat or not is secondary, we don't have to worry about our safety, the main problem now is to figure out the situation on the other side of the tide circle, there are still thousands of admirals and people inside, and tens of thousands of ship mothers!"

"There's also a lot of precious marine material. The princess of the Saint Sia Empire suddenly thought of something, and said with a gloomy face: "This is the time for those pirates to fish in troubled waters, if we retreat like this, maybe they will unite and sneak inside, and attack the island of the stars of the Dyrof." ”

"What!?"

The admiral of the Airo Empire, hearing this, immediately persuaded the prince to give up his plan to retreat.

It's really not that hard to sneak inside!

As long as you start a war in one area and attract the surrounding deep-sea dwelling ships, you can create a gap for other fleets to touch into.

Nelson said: "Let the people of the archipelago and the merchant fleet be ready to evacuate at any time, and we will wait here for the news of the reconnaissance fleet before making a judgment." ”

"Seconded. ”

・・・

Jiang Yan choked the sea water, came back and took a simple shower, and then lay down on the bed to rest.

Lexington sat on the edge of the bed and slept softly, guarding the Admiral.

It wasn't until the evening that I received a new message.

"Admiral, I'm waking up, it seems that I have decided on a strategy. Lexington put the letter on the table and went to prepare food for the Admiral.

Jiang Yan got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, and then opened the letter.

"Admiral, what are you talking about?" Lexington asked, returning.

"The combat power of the deep-sea fleet is scattered, and I haven't said what the specific layout is, but let me lead the fleet to the western port of the Moa Islands tomorrow to rendezvous. ”

"And the ports on our side are gathering the fleets of various empires. ”

The port where the Jiang fleet is located is the easternmost island of the Moa Islands, and the western port are the two extremes.

Lexington frowned slightly, unclear about the situation, and at this moment, another letter arrived.

The previous letter, signed by a certain rear admiral, was in charge of the twenty-three admirals who had advanced to the exercise, and this one was a letter sent by Princess Layla herself.

Jiang Yan took it apart and looked at it, his face turned dark, "This chick really pitted me in a dangerous place!"
