At this moment, the speed of the lizardmen soldiers had exploded to the extreme, and one after another the water vortex guns continued to pierce into the burly body of the swordfish people.

In just one offensive, the Lizardmen underwater combat unit has been established again.

The pungent smell of blood mixed with the sea water continued to spread, and the intense pain endlessly stimulated every nerve of the swordfish soldiers.

"Retreat!!"

A swordfish man who appeared to be the captain roared, and dived into the deep sea with the team members who had survived the attack just now and began to evacuate.

The situation here is obviously wrong, the other party has been prepared, they have been calculated!!

In this regard, the soldiers of the Lizardman Underwater Combat Unit had no intention of pursuing them at all, but quickly dispersed in all directions.

During this period, the submarine hunter, having received the signal, began its first work.

Mounted in a bombardier at the stern of the ship, depth charges are dropped into the dark depths of the sea, and then explode one after another when they reach a designated depth or after touching the target.

The powerful impact air mass generated by the explosion directly recoiled, constantly squeezing the surrounding sea water, causing the originally calm sea surface to bulge violently, and then completely exploded with the expansion of the impact air mass, blooming on the sea surface with an incomparably spectacular huge splash!

The bombardment of this batch of depth charges was dropped, and they did not know whether the sailfish soldiers who fled to the deep sea were alive or dead.

However, the opponent's attack basically didn't have much impact on them, and the key to this was the extra bulge on the side of the ship!

Strictly speaking, that drum should be called a lightning protection drum kit.

In modern warfare, as the destructive power of torpedoes has become stronger and stronger, the early anti-torpedo nets have basically lost their value.

The anti-mine drum is completely isolated from the main body of the battleship, and even if it is attacked, it will basically not have much impact on the main body of the battleship.

At the same time, the interior of this lightning bulge is also divided into two layers, the outer layer is the air compartment and nothing, and the inner layer is the water compartment, which is filled with water.

If a torpedo is attacked, the detonated anti-mine drum will absorb the impact force and fragments generated by the torpedo explosion to the greatest extent, thus protecting the main body of the battleship from damage.

The previous attack of the swordfish people, according to the length of the spear in their mouth, pierced the air compartment was already the limit, and it could not even threaten the inner water compartment, in this case, it was naturally basically impossible to affect the battleship.

This transformation was ordered by Xia Qi after his East China Sea cruiser fleet was attacked by the swordfish people.

As for why didn't you do it before?

The reason is simple, poor.

You think that a large-scale transformation of the battleship will cost a lot of money!

Over the past few years, the Navy's military spending has been burning to the death of the Minister of Finance, so why spend so much spare money on this when it could be done with cheap anti-torpedo nets?

At the end of the day, before this war starts, looking at the entire battlefield, few players will waste money building this.

As for whether they built it after that, it's impossible to say.

However, a tactical play like this can basically only be used once or twice, and after the fish-man troops on the opposite side are on guard, it is impossible to send a swordfish-man rush team to rush up stupidly.

Let the lizardmen soldiers of the underwater combat unit continue to maintain their vigilance, and at the same time, in the main command room of the Weiyuan, the main flagship of the East China Sea Fleet, the voice in the radio communication equipment quickly sounded.

"This is the No. 1 reconnaissance airship of the No. 1 Reconnaissance Team in the air, and I confirm that there are no traces of enemy ships around."

This is information from the air, and at present, there are five reconnaissance airships in Daxia to carry out reconnaissance work in the airspace over this sea area all year round.

With the arrival of the East China Sea Fleet, providing intelligence information support to the East China Sea Fleet has undoubtedly become the main task of this aerial reconnaissance team.

Maintaining radio communication, Lü Meng took the pager from the signal soldier.

"This is Lu Meng, commander-in-chief of the East China Sea Fleet, please reply when you hear it."

"This is reconnaissance airship No. 1, confirm receipt of the message, hello, Rear Admiral Lümeng. In the next battle, the 1st Air Reconnaissance Team will do its best to support you and the East China Sea Fleet. ”

"Thank you for your assistance, I need to get in touch with the foreign combined fleet now, I wonder if you can build a communication bridge from the air and establish a communication channel?"

Although the current radio communication technology has been relatively mature, there are still obvious distance limitations in the transmission and reception of radio signals.

If you want to communicate over long distances, you have to build multiple signal towers to receive and transmit signals, just like Yamamoto's seven-by-eight island.

As a maritime fleet, it is obviously impossible for the East China Sea Fleet to build a signal tower on a ship, so they can only settle for the next best thing and build a relatively portable signal transmitting and receiving device and install it on a few cruisers.

The reason why I say that there are a few ships is because the equipment is quite cumbersome and takes up space, and it is impossible to install it on every battleship.

Therefore, some equipment with range auxiliary functions are concentrated on a few cruisers.

Cruisers like this are often referred to by players as tool ships, nanny ships, or support ships.

Straight to the point.

The signal transmitting and receiving devices carried by the auxiliary ships of the East China Sea Fleet are relatively limited, and under normal circumstances, they can only maintain communication within their fleet, or communicate with other fleets in close proximity.

It is obviously impossible to get in touch with the foreign combined fleet, which is now unknown where.

To this end, Lu Meng needed multiple signal relay stations to build a communication bridge to receive and retransmit the radio signals he transmitted.

The reconnaissance airship undoubtedly meets this requirement, and from the general situation, the signal transmitting and receiving devices on the aerial reconnaissance airship are smaller than those on their ships.

As a result, the signal also has a smaller range of reception and transmission.

However, the First Air Reconnaissance Team has five reconnaissance airships, which are equivalent to five small signal relay stations in the air, and they are also very flexible and can move freely over the sea area anytime and anywhere.

Under this premise, they only need to build a communication bridge in the air and transmit his signal information.

But this kind of thing has really never been done by the No. 1 Air Reconnaissance Team.

However, as a communicator, you are familiar with the operation and principle of radio communication equipment, and at critical moments, you even have to have the ability to repair equipment, which can be said to be basic.

Therefore, from a principle point of view, the success rate of what Lu Meng wants to do is not small.

"Major General Lu Meng, our No. 1 Air Reconnaissance Team will help you build a communication bridge as much as possible, but there is no guarantee of success, please be mentally prepared."

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work."

While replying, Lu Meng told the other party some necessary information quite simply.

After confirming all the necessary information, Lu Meng, who had temporarily hung up the communication, began to confirm the situation of the fleet under his command.

The attack of the fishmen just now was just a swordfishman squad, and there were not many of them at all, so it could only be said that it was a small-scale battle, but in any case, the victory of the East China Sea Fleet in the first battle could be regarded as a good start for this expedition.

During this period, the No. 1 Air Reconnaissance Team, which took over the task, also began to take action.

For them, who have almost mastered the entire sea view, it is really not difficult to find the location of the foreign combined fleet.

Or rather, the position of the combined fleet of foreign countries, and even the position of the combined fleet of Europa, has always been under their surveillance, and after occupying the aerial view, the advantage is so great!

Before building the communication bridge, in order to avoid a wasted work, the No. 1 Air Reconnaissance Team first needed to get in touch with the other party first.

In a battlefield where everyone has developed radio technology, it's obviously impossible for one player to allow other players to come and go in their communication channels.

In this way, each country's communication system is independent, and at the same time, the military's communication channels have undergone multiple special encryptions to prevent enemy eavesdropping.

On the No. 1 reconnaissance airship, the communicator, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly sent out a series of special codes.

This is the radio identification code attached to the foreign player when he sent Xia Qiqi a letter for help, if Xia Qi is willing to send troops to support, then after arriving at the battlefield, he will get in touch with them through this identification code.

Quickly lock on a special communication channel, and the communication soldiers on the airship move non-stop, and a string of cumbersome codes are entered into it.

During this period, among the main flagships of the foreign fleet below, a signal soldier in charge of operating the radio communication equipment quickly said: "Report to the general, I have received an unfamiliar signal!" ”

"Identification code confirmed...... The identification code is confirmed! ”

"The corresponding code is being confirmed...... The corresponding code is confirmed! It should be a signal for the Huaxia fleet! ”

"Take it in!"

The permission order was given, accompanied by a slightly cacophony of noise, and the transmission from the air sounded directly in the command room of the main flagship of the foreign fleet.

After that, things were simple, after indicating their intentions and confirming their identities again, the main work was handed over to their first air reconnaissance team.

At the same time, in the course of a short exchange, they did not reveal the identity of their air units.

Because from the current point of view, there is no need for this, and it is better to continue to remain hidden, which is a greater advantage for Great Xia.

The construction of the communication bridge is far from being as easy as it is said, and the calibration work in the middle requires a lot of energy and time.

And during this time, somewhere on the surface of the sea, with a painful groan, a burly figure floating on the surface of the sea slowly woke up from the coma.

Before his eyes were fully opened, the strong sunlight shining from the sky made his eyes feel a tingling pain, and made him subconsciously make a gesture of raising his hand to cover it.

Most of the fish-people live in the deep sea, and at that depth, sunlight is almost impossible to reach.

Although William Mousse also used some glowing deep-sea plants as so-called "street lights", the whole light was still extremely dim.

Being in this environment for a long time has made most of their eyes degenerate to a certain extent, except for a few exceptions, and poor vision is a common phenomenon.

As a result, when exposed to too much light, it often takes them a slow time to adapt.

This is the main reason why they don't attack directly from the pitch black deep sea directly at the battleship units moving on the surface of the sea, and it will take time for them to get used to it.

Then, as his eyes adjusted to the brightness of the sea, he began to look at his surroundings.
