Just as Mao Jiang thought, the battle plan formulated by the General Staff was to let the West Sea Division and the South China Sea Division meet the enemy first.

Just as Mao Jiang led the Beihai Division to detour the enemy's rear, the Xihai Division and the South China Sea Division also began to advance to the south.

The blue sea, the blue sky.

Traps streak through the sky.

Guan Hong, an apprentice mechanic, is a top mechanic pilot.

Piloting a bird is a technical job, and every driver of a bird needs to enter the military academy before driving a bird to the sky.

Behind Guan Hong, there is also an observer Zhao Bin, Guan Hong is responsible for piloting the trap bird, Zhao Bin is responsible for observing the situation below, or when encountering a battle, Zhao Bin will also use the crossbow arrows on the trap bird to attack.

The two have been partners for three years and have been in the air for more than a thousand hours.

Today, they were once again given a new task, as a scout for the army in the rear, to observe whether there were any enemy warships in the sea area ahead.

After taking to the sky, they kept thinking about flying south, feeling the wind in the sky and looking at the blue sea.

"Lao Guan, I heard that Liu Shan of the Feiyun Camp has reached the rank of Nine Rank Martial Artist!"

Zhao Bin in the back looked at the sea below and said a little boredly.

"Yes! Even he has become a nine-rank martial artist, and we are still sixth-rank! Guan Hong said a little depressed.

There is a big gap between the nine-rank martial artist and the sixth-rank martial artist, especially in the army, not only in terms of treatment and salary, but also in terms of resources.

After the ninth grade, there is a congenital martial artist, if you can become an innate martial artist, you can not only get the training above, but also be promoted to captain.

Although the lieutenant is not a general, he is second only to the general.

The establishment of the four major naval divisions of Dali is very different from that of the army, and the army generally retains the original general army system, but the internal establishment is added to the general army, and it is divided into five armies, front, back, left, right, and middle, and under the five armies, it is divided into corps commanders.

Under the four major naval divisions, it is divided into five divisions, including the front and back, the left and right, and the middle division, and there are five battalions under each division, and the battalion is set up under the song, and each song has a large warship, several medium-sized fighting ships and clippers.

To put it simply, Qu is the smallest combat unit of the Naval Division, with about 1,500 to 2,000 soldiers.

Each battalion has about 10,000 soldiers, each division has 50,000 soldiers, and five divisions are 250,000.

This is the current scale of the four major sailors after the expansion.

However, in the future, the four major naval divisions will still be expanded, and according to the military aircraft department's expansion plan, the total strength of the four major naval divisions will reach 2 million, that is, the strength of each naval division will reach 500,000.

If it is to be expanded, it will make the four major sailors become five or six, and will not continue to expand on the original four major sailors.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Guan Hong, what they care about is whether they can become captains.

The qu is led by the marquis, the battalion is led by the captain, and the department is led by the general, and there will be two or three lieutenant generals.

For ordinary non-commissioned officers, the lieutenant is already a large official position.

A lieutenant had tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, three to five large warships, and twenty or thirty medium-sized fighting ships and small clippers.

Although the lieutenant is not a general, he is already a military attache of the fifth grade.

As long as the sergeant of the army has reached the congenital level, he will be awarded the rank of lieutenant at the minimum, and if the ability is more outstanding, he may also be directly promoted to the rank of general.

Guan Honghe was very envious of Liu Shan of the Feiyun Battalion, they joined the sailor together, and they also became the pilots of the Trap Bird together, but Liu Shan was about to become a captain, and he was just a little chief, and he was in charge of three Trap Birds.

"I heard that the reason why Liu Shan's cultivation has improved so quickly is because he won the first merit three years ago, when the general personally rewarded him with more than ten pills." Zhao Bin said curiously.

This matter is not a secret in the South China Sea Naval Division, many people have heard about it, and he has heard about it from other people.

However, he has only been in the South China Sea Naval Division for three years, and he used to be an archer in the Dali Border Army, unlike Guan Hong, who has always been in the South China Sea Naval Division.

"Well, he's seen Your Majesty! When His Majesty went to sea for the first time, he followed with the ship, although he was only a scout, but he also admired His Majesty's holy face. Guan Hong said jealously.

What a good opportunity it was, but he was not selected, and every time he thought of this time, Guan Hong felt depressed in his heart.

"Hey, time, life, I can only say that Liu Shan's kid's life is really good!"

Guan Hong had to sigh at the injustice of fate.

At this moment, Zhao Bin suddenly exclaimed: "There is a situation!" ”

"Where?" Guan Hong suddenly came to his senses, and he didn't care about emotion, so he hurriedly asked.

"Southeast, over there!" Zhao Bin pointed to the southeast.

Guan Hong looked sideways and saw a black shadow falling from the sky in the distance.

It was far away, but he could see that it was a trap bird!

The trap bird has been shot down!

"Are there any enemy ships?" Guan Hong asked.

"I didn't find it, but I seem to see a figure!" Zhao Bin said a little nervously.

Guan Hong's face changed greatly.

There are no warships, only an unknown figure.

This shows that the person who shot down the trap bird is likely to be a powerhouse in the Silent Realm.

It may also be a congenital master.

Although the innate warrior cannot fly for a long time, he can fly into the sky for a short time.

But whether it is a strong person in the Silent Light Realm or an innate master, it is not something they can deal with.

"Let's go and have a look!" Guan Hong did not flinch, but drove the trap bird towards the southeast.

"Wait!"

Just as the bird was flying southeast at full speed, Zhao Bin suddenly shouted.

"Run!!"

"What's wrong?" Guan Hong asked suspiciously.

"There are ships, a lot of warships!"

Zhao Bin's voice was extremely hurried.

"Where?" However, Guan Hong didn't see it.

There is nothing on the vast sea!

"Gone!"

"What! You can't be mistaken! ”

"Impossible! How could I be wrong! Zhao Bin said anxiously.

Guan Hong once again forgot about the sea below, and still didn't see any warships.

But he still turned to leave according to Zhao Bin's intentions.

Because he believed that Zhao Bin would not talk nonsense, and he would not be reluctant to come forward to investigate because he was afraid.

The bird wanted to fly northwest, but Zhao Bin was still staring at the sea in the southeast.

He really saw this warship just now, more than a thousand warships were trained in one piece.

But in an instant, the ships were gone.

"Circle!"

"What circle?" Guan Hong asked.

Zhao Bin said with a solemn expression: "I heard that the magic circle can cast a lot of magical abilities, do you think the Giant Spirit Dynasty will have the ability to stealth in a large area!" ”

Guan Hong was slightly stunned, this involved their knowledge blind spots.

Or that the formation was not something they could touch.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken!" Guan Hongdao.

"How is that possible?" Zhao Bin said: "I used to be an archer. ”

As an observer, the most important thing is eyesight, if the eyesight is not good, it will definitely not be able to serve as an observer.

"How many ships are there?"

"More than a thousand!" Zhao Bin said affirmatively.

Guan Hong was thoughtful.

"Our enemy is the Western Route Army of the Djinn Dynasty Expeditionary Force, which has nearly 300,000 troops and more than 8,000 warships."

"If you're not mistaken, then this one, if not their main force, is a large enemy force!"

"If it's true as you say, they have a large-scale stealth circle!"

He paused, his expression becoming solemn.

"You're right, we have to go back as soon as possible!"

Although he was only a small leader, he also knew the impact of large-scale stealth circles on the overall battle situation.

Without further hesitation, Guan Hong immediately flew quickly towards the location of their warship.

……

On the flagship of the South China Sea Naval Division.

Dali Nanshan Bo, Liu Zhen, the commander of the South China Sea Naval Division, listened to the report of the generals under his command, and his face became more and more solemn.

"Stealth Circle!"

"Is there such a thing?"

Liu Zhen asked in a deep voice.

The general who reported the report smiled helplessly: "I don't know, the last general doesn't understand the formation!" ”

That's where the trouble comes in.

Although Dali's formation industry has developed very rapidly in the past two years, due to the weak foundation, there are no professional formation mages among the four major water divisions.

As for the stealth circle, they naturally didn't know anything.

"Send a message to the Military Aircraft Department and ask for support from the array mages!"

Liu Zhen commanded directly.

Some of the battles were beyond their capabilities.

What is the function of this stealth array, how far can it be cast, does it have other functions, and how to prevent and how to break the formation?

They don't have a clue at all, how does this make them at war with each other?

"Whoa!"

The general answered, and immediately hurried out of the ship.

The news soon spread to Meteorite Island through the communication circle.

And the staff officers in the command headquarters on Meteorite Island were also confused.

Stealth Circle!

Or a magic circle that can make thousands of warships invisible, how can there be such a magic circle?

Before the battle had even begun, the situation had changed beyond their prediction, much to the embarrassment of the staff officers.

Yuwen Chengdu was on the main seat of the camp, and his brows were tightly locked.

A moment later, Duan Haichao hurried to the tent.

"I've seen my lord!"

"Senior Duan, please take a seat!" Yuwen Chengdu replied.

"No need!" Duan Haichao waved his hand, "The Giant Spirit Dynasty really has a stealth array!" ”

"There shouldn't be any fakes!" Yuwen Chengdu Road.

Duan Haichao gasped, his face full of shock.

Seeing this, Yuwen Chengdu's eyebrows furrowed even deeper, "This stealth array is very difficult to deal with!" ”

"No, it's very simple to crack the stealth circle, a fallen leaf and a stone can cause ripples to the stealth circle, making the stealth circle lose its effect."

Duan Haichao shook his head slightly, and said, "But the stealth formation is a six-rank formation!" ”

The formation grade is divided by the Great Glass Formation Association, just like the formation mage, the Great Glass Formation Association also divides the known formations into grades.

"Not only can they set up stealth formations, but they can also arrange them on ships." Duan Haichao said.

"Is it hard?" Yuwen Chengdu frowned and asked.

"It's very difficult, the stealth magic circle has twelve formation bases, even if it is only a small area arrangement, it is not something that ordinary formation mages can do, let alone a large-scale arrangement on a ship!"

"Twelve formation bases, that is, twelve warships, these twelve warships must be synchronized on the sea, the larger the range of the formation, the farther the distance between these twelve warships!"

"It's not just a matter of formation, it's also how these twelve warships are consistent on the sea!"

Duan Haichao explained.

After listening to this, Yuwen Chengdu probably understood the difficulty of arranging a stealth formation on a warship.

Generally speaking, the formation is arranged in a fixed position.

Or maybe it's not that hard to set it up on a ship.

However, it is not an ordinary difficulty to use twelve warships as the basis of the formation, let them drift on the sea, and open the formation.

"In other words, it is not difficult to crack the stealth formation, but the Djinn Dynasty has a formation ability that far surpasses ours, and we also need to guard against them using other formations!" Yuwen Chengdu Road.

"That's right, the stealth formation doesn't have any attack capabilities, but there are many formations that have protection and attack functions, and the other party is likely to have other powerful formations." Duanhai tidal channel.

Yuwen Chengdu took a deep breath.

It's a big problem.
