Chapter 211 The fleet arrived in time.
Chapter 211 The fleet arrived in time.
Above the vast and turbulent waters of Nan Dazhou.
At this moment, the mixed fleet of Yan State had fallen into extreme difficulties and looked extremely embarrassed.
The most eye-catching of them was the Zhenguo super battleship, which was known as the overlord of the sea. It suffered a fierce attack from as many as a dozen deadly torpedoes.
These ruthless torpedoes, like ferocious sharks, slammed fiercely into the battleship's indestructible hull, triggering a series of earth-shaking explosions.
With each violent impact, the battleship's speed gradually slowed down, like a wounded beast, dragging its heavy body forward with difficulty.
At the same time, another aircraft carrier has also lost its former glory.
Its deck was empty, and all the carrier-based aircraft had long disappeared.
This aircraft carrier seemed to have its soul sucked out, and could no longer play the huge role it should have in the entire battle situation.
What's worse is that Yan Country's submarine force suffered a devastating disaster and was completely wiped out.
Those brave and fearless carrier-based aircraft pilots were also not spared and all died heroically.
At this point, the Yan State’s fleet was left with only one battleship, one aircraft carrier, one cruiser and three destroyers.
They are like candles in the wind, struggling to survive in the vast ocean.
However, although Dongyang State achieved such brilliant results, the price they paid was also quite heavy.
According to incomplete statistics, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in Dongyang lost more than 800 advanced fighter planes of various types and more than 40 warships of various types.
The commander of the Dongyang Joint Fleet, standing on the command tower, fixed his eyes on the Yan warships that were fleeing in panic in front of him. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smug smile.
"Yoshi, full speed ahead! We must make a concerted effort to wipe out the remaining fleet of Yan Nation in one fell swoop!"
Hearing the commander's order, all the soldiers shouted in unison: "Hi!"
At this moment, the Dongyang fleet rushed towards the Yan fleet like an arrow, vowing to achieve this historic victory.
On the bridge of a warship on the rough sea, a serious-looking captain reported the latest situation to the commander through the communication equipment: "Report to the commander!"
"Our Home Fleet is expected to arrive at the battlefield in just two hours!"
Upon hearing this news, the commander's eyes flashed with determination. He clenched his fists and said, "Very good, I already know."
"Tell all the soldiers that they must hold out until reinforcements arrive, no matter what the cost!"
"Today's shame will be repaid double in the future. I will make that abominable Dongyang country regret everything they have done!"
The captain straightened up and responded loudly: "Yes, Commander!" Then he turned around and conveyed the order.
At the same time, Yan Country had five aircraft carriers.
Following the commander's order, the ground crew on the deck quickly got busy, and one after another advanced carrier-based fighter jets took off into the air like arrows and rushed off into the distance.
These fighter planes are like steel eagles, with endless majesty and power, flying towards the journey of supporting the mixed fleet without hesitation.
However, at this critical moment, the battle situation suddenly changed dramatically - the super battleship, which had already suffered severe damage, was once again in dire straits.
More than a dozen deadly torpedoes came like ghosts from all directions, cutting through the sea water and heading straight for the super battleship.
Faced with such a fierce attack, the crew of the super battleship fought desperately, but ultimately they were unable to completely withstand this wave of fierce attacks.
The commander of the Dongyang Combined Fleet, who was watching the battle from a distance, witnessed this scene and a smug, gloating smile appeared on his face.
He waved his arms excitedly and shouted, "Yoshi! Great job! Work harder and make sure to completely destroy this invincible super battleship!"
The staff officers around him also echoed and expressed their agreement.
Just as the commander of the Combined Fleet was filled with joy, an officer with a lonely and pale face walked into the room with heavy footsteps.
He lowered his head, his voice low and with a hint of despair: "Report to the Commander... Yan Country's home fleet is approaching here."
"According to reliable information, the number of their aircraft carriers is as high as nearly 40! What's worse is that their carrier-based aircraft have already taken off."
Upon hearing this, the commander couldn't help but screamed: "What? How can Yan Country have so many aircraft carriers? This is simply unbelievable!"
The officer looked miserable and said helplessly: "Commander, now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to evacuate quickly."
The commander's eyes widened, his face full of reluctance, and he shouted: "But, we are about to annihilate the Yan country's mixed fleet, how can we give up and retreat so easily?"
However, the officer did not back down and continued to advise: "Commander, please think about it calmly."
"We are now getting farther and farther away from the waters of Nan Dazhou. If we continue to tangle with the Yan Kingdom fleet here, I am afraid the consequences will be disastrous."
"Only when we retreat to the vicinity of the waters of the Great State can we use the carrier-based aircraft on the shore to engage in a battle with them that has a chance of winning."
"Otherwise, considering the current strength of both sides, it will be difficult for us to resist the powerful naval offensive of Yan Country!"
The commander clenched his teeth tightly, veins popping out on his forehead, but he finally sighed and gave an order dejectedly: "Forget it, forget it! It's just a little bit short, just a tiny bit short!"
"This is extremely abominable! Pass on my order to withdraw the troops immediately! At the same time, report the failure of "Operation Plan No. 1" to the headquarters as soon as possible."
"Yes, sir!" the officer responded, then turned and left to carry out the urgent order issued by the commander.
