Chapter 620: The East China Sea Fleet Sets Out

Using the fact that the Europa Combined Fleet had forcibly invaded their East China Sea in Great Xia as a pretext for war, after giving LĂź Meng's East China Sea Fleet an order to go out, Great Xia also entered an extraordinary period.

The working hours at the Arsenal were directly adjusted to two shifts, and one employee worked twelve hours a day, twenty-four hours a day to provide productivity, and strive to make the first batch of ordinary harpoon guns as quickly as possible and in a state of bursting liver damage.

With this first batch of weapons, the Lizardman soldiers, who had only been able to hold a small number of harpoon guns and take turns to familiarize themselves with training, were finally able to equip all of them with weapons and then start formal training.

However, in the current situation, there is no time for them to train for too long, and a month is already the limit, so let's directly accumulate experience in actual combat!

Fortunately, the orc unit has a real combat character, and for them, accumulating combat experience in actual combat is a racial project bonus.

At the same time, at the moment when this unit equipped with harpoon guns was officially formed, the system also gave him a new special class project, the Submarine Hunter!

Just like the name of this class, it is their mission to hunt down the enemies lurking in the deep sea, and Xia Qi immediately pointed this special class project to level three.

With the blessing of the third-level special class project "Submarine Hunter", the lizardman soldiers of the Lizard Clan have all increased their underwater combat ability and underwater combat time by 60%!

The buff buff for underwater combat ability, which is easy to understand.

To put it simply, it has improved the comprehensive combat ability under the water, which is one of the regular buffs of special classes, and the basic class items generally have the blessing of this combat power buff.

So, the focus is on buffs that increase the duration of underwater battles.

Lizardmen of the lizard family are generally able to maintain a diving state for 15 to 20 minutes after rigorous training, depending on individual quality.

To be on the safe side, after fifteen minutes, they should have begun to surface for ventilation to avoid any surprises.

This battle time has undoubtedly significantly limited their ability to fight underwater.

And now, with the addition of this sixty percent buff, their underwater combat time has suddenly reached the level of thirty minutes, which can be said to be a qualitative leap!

Looking at the buff brought to him by the "Submarine Hunter", Xia Qi's confidence was a little more sufficient.

After ordering all the things that should be ordered, in the next battle, Xia Qi will go to the front line in person.

No way, this battle is still quite important, although it is only a small force in the army of fishmen, but its threat should not be underestimated.

On the other side, the sea area east of Great Xia.

The East China Sea Fleet, which had been in a state of first-class readiness since the beginning of the war, led the fleet to the expedition as quickly as possible after receiving Xia Qi's order.

The enemy has the fish-men, an extremely tricky underwater force, and in order to ensure safety, the East China Sea Fleet has been put on guard for 120,000 points as soon as it moves.

Not only were reconnaissance ships dispatched on the surface of the sea to reconnoiter the surrounding areas of the sea, but at the same time, the underwater troops were also constantly dispatched to form a circle of warning nets, striving to find the Fish-Man troops that might be approaching them underwater at the first time.

Taking into account the problem of diving time and physical exertion of ordinary lizardman soldiers, the vigilance work under the sea surface was carried out on a shift basis.

While one team is on guard below the surface, the other team rests on the deck of the ship and then takes turns to maintain the efficiency and stamina of the lizardmen soldiers.

Maintaining this level of vigilance, the East China Sea Fleet maintained a steady speed and crossed the territorial sea boundary line of the East China Sea and the outer waters of Great Xia.

The maritime radar equipment on several reconnaissance ships is at full capacity, constantly scanning the surrounding sea area.

Although the radar of this era is not yet able to detect biological units, as an alien fleet, what they need to guard against, in addition to the fish-man troops under the surface of the sea, obviously there is also the Europa Combined Fleet on the opposite side!

I have to say that in this war, the two Europa players in the southern outer sea area are really lucky.

In the early years, when they were running around the sea by the opposing foreign combined fleet, Xia Qi's lightning strike fleet helped them cover and assist, and finally turned the tables, and even became the maritime hegemon of this peripheral sea area for a time.

Later, after the Franc machine players joined the battle in this sea area, they fled in the face of the four-nation combined fleet on the side of the foreign alliance, and finally broke into the East China Sea of Great Xia, and finally got rid of the pursuit of the four-nation combined fleet.

Later, under the guidance of Xia Qi, he ran to the territory of Yamamoto's 7x8 archipelago where the defense was weak, and grabbed several waves of resources, and then embarked on a long roundabout way back.

During this period, the foreign alliance players who had defeated the Europa Combined Fleet had already begun to mobilize their forces to prepare for the landing operation, but they were brutally reduced by a strategic strike from the Supreme Commander of the Wingman Legion, Ares, destroying the battleship and buying them precious respite.

Subsequently, when the war began again, the appearance of the Fish-Man Force and the return of the Europa Combined Fleet allowed the two Europa players who were in a precarious situation to plunder resources from the hands of four foreign players again, so as to stabilize their position, and even completely reversed the situation in one fell swoop.

Although Xia Qi quietly took action and helped the two Europa players, it was completely for his own purposes, wanting to balance the situation and borrow the hands of the two Europa players to change the pattern of this sea area, and finally completed his goal of unifying the central continent.

It is undeniable that although the two Europa players were used, it was not a kind of luck.

If he had known that it would become the current situation, Xia Qi might have let this Europa Combined Fleet suffer more losses and let them enter a state of self-care.

At that time, even if the fish-man force arrives, without the naval artillery fire support of the Europa Combined Fleet, the limited number of fish-man troops will face the huge four-nation combined fleet, at most it will be a dozen harassment wars.

But it's obviously too late to think about it now.

Beneath the surface of the sea, the lizardmen underwater combat troops directly formed a perimeter cordon, escorting the East China Sea Fleet all the way, constantly rushing towards the direction of the main battlefield.

At this moment, the rapid sound of a sea current surging faintly from a distance made the lizardman soldiers under the water vigilant for the first time. The two lizardmen soldiers who were closer quickly exchanged a look, and then one of them immediately swam towards the surface of the sea, and quickly signaled as he surfaced.

Obviously, the cordon of the fish-man troops has been directly pushed to this border area, and as soon as Lu Meng's East China Sea Fleet crossed the boundary line of the territorial waters, it has already been discovered by the fish-man troops on the opposite side.

At this moment, the lizardman soldiers who were resting on the decks of various warships plunged into the sea one after another after receiving the signal, and at the same time, with the sound of the first-level alarm, the whole fleet instantly entered a state of special readiness.

The formation quickly opened, and the anti-submarine devices of each hunting submarine were ready to be put in place, directly forming an interception line.

Beneath the surface of the sea, while a large number of lizardmen soldiers plunged into the sea, units in the sea that maintained high-speed movement in the distance had already appeared.

Sure enough, it's the Sailfish People's troops!

The Sailfish Men had already launched an attack on their cruiser fleet in the East China Sea before, so for this opponent, the Lizardmen soldiers had already been mentally prepared.

A swordfish man raid team, who didn't know how their third squad died, was obviously full of confidence in himself, and quite arrogantly launched a strong attack directly on the lizardman soldiers located in the deep sea.

The swordfish people under the burst of speed were simply like humanoid javelins flying over, and the power of this attack was needless to say, and a single blow could directly open a hole in the cruiser.

In the face of an attack of this level, the lizardman soldiers naturally had to choose to scatter and dodge, and it was impossible to go head-on.

In this regard, the soldiers of the Sailfish Man Rush Strike Team should have expected it, and it can only be said that those lizardmen are quite smart, and there is basically no difference between taking their attack and looking for death.

At this moment, the lizardmen soldiers scattered and evaded, allowing the opposing swordfish people to easily break through the outer defense line.

They had a clear goal, and they didn't pay attention to those lizardmen soldiers at all, and directly maintained their momentum and attacked the nearest warship to them.

It's too late, it's too soon.

With a dull sound, the spear-like mouth organs of the swordfish soldiers pierced the hull of the battleship in one breath.

As a part of their body organs, although the spear in their mouth was extremely hard, there was also a certain amount of feedback, and it was at that moment that the feeling of feedback back made it clear to the swordfish soldiers that something was wrong.

What's going on?

A strong sense of uneasiness arose, and it was only at this moment that they noticed that the side structures of the battleships they had hit seemed to be different from those of the previous ones.

The part that was hit by the attack took on a rounded state, like a huge bulge, protruding from the side of the battleship.

However, before they could think about it, and saw that the spears in their mouths were not in the battleship and had no time to pull out, the lizardmen soldiers who had scattered around before immediately rushed up with water vortex guns!

Obviously, this is all part of the tactics.

At that time, while they were scattering in all directions, the siege formation had actually been launched, and they were waiting for this moment.
