Naval Warfare for All: From Patrol Boats to Carrier Fleets

Chapter 114

In this way, the three warships of the Huaxia fleet rode the wind and waves on the sea surface, moving quickly towards the belligerent sea area at a high speed of 28 knots, and along the way, the faint sound of gunfire before that had gradually become clear, indicating that the distance between the two sides was rapidly narrowing.

Lütyans stood next to the porthole of the bridge, paying attention to the situation in the sea outside, so that he could give various orders at any time, while Ye Bai was still standing in front of the radar display screen, his two eyes staring closely at the display screen, paying attention to the changes in the detected light spots.

As time passed, the light spot on the radar display screen had changed its position more than once, and the sound of artillery outside became louder and louder, and it seemed that the naval battle was very intense.

Suddenly, Ye Bai, who did not divert his gaze, found that the blue point of light on the radar screen disappeared, this discovery made Ye Bai frown, in this case, either the radar was faulty, or the battleship corresponding to this blue point of light was sunk.

In the world of navigation, the subsystem equipment produced by these radars and other systems, unless it is hit by a shell and causes damage, there will be no mechanical failure, then the result is naturally clear.

After this blue point of light disappeared from the radar display screen, in less than a minute, two points of light disappeared from the screen again, one was the blue point of light representing the Blue Star player, and the other was the red point of light of the warship of the hostile force.

Seeing a red point of light disappear, Ye Bai was overjoyed in his heart, just with the group of Blue Star players who were not strong in the fleet, in the case of fighting less and more, they could even sink an enemy ship, and the strength of this hostile force fleet could be imagined.

Coming to this conclusion, Ye Bai’s heart relaxed, and the original worry disappeared by half, turned around and looked at the sea in the distance through the porthole, faintly, he could already see some thick black smoke floating in the air, and they were not far from the battle sea.

“Report to the commander, captain, news from the lookout that the warring sea area has been discovered, located in front ~ on the left of our fleet, 7 kilometers away.”

The report of the communication soldier made Ye Bai and Lü Teyans look shocked, and Lü Teyans glanced at Ye Bai and immediately said loudly: “Reduce the speed, stop advancing, give orders to the lookouts, and quickly judge the warship class of the fleets of the two sides.” ”

“Yes.”

For Lütyans’s order, Ye Bai shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say much, since he could already see the general situation of the warring seas, in the case of unclear enemy conditions, it was naturally not suitable to continue to advance, and the previous judgment of the strength of the enemy’s fleet, but Ye Bai’s analysis and guessing, can not be accurate.

It didn’t take long for the lookout to report to the bridge through the communicator, and judging by the flags hanging on the masts of the warring sides, there were currently about 3 destroyers and 7 gunboats in the fleet belonging to the Blue Star player, and there were no patrol boats.

And the warships of the enemy forces besieging them were flying skeleton flags representing the identity of pirates, and there were about 10 more of them, almost all of them were gunboats and above, the number of destroyers reached 5, and there was also a light cruiser-level warship.

As for the 6 warships belonging to the indigenous forces, according to the observation of the lookout, they were not warships at all, except for one light cruiser of the same size that fought with the light cruisers of the pirate fleet, the remaining 5 were all transport ships.

On the battlefield today, the two sides are fighting quite fiercely, especially the small number of warships, the weaker Blue Star players and the fleets of the aboriginal forces, except for the 5 transport ships gathered together, in a slightly distant position, did not suffer attacks, many of the remaining warships rose black smoke, and some battleships had fires that had not been extinguished.

On the side of the pirate fleet, although some of the warships were also hit by shells, causing varying degrees of damage, but the state is obviously much better, if there is no support fleet, at most another hour, the fleet of Blue Star players and aboriginal forces will be all sunk.

After getting the situation reported by the lookout, Ye Bai immediately understood the situation of this naval battle, if nothing else, it should be a group of Blue Star players who received the task of escorting the transport fleet from the Chamber of Commerce or aboriginal forces, and as a result, they were quite unlucky to encounter the interception of a large pirate fleet and a naval battle broke out.

No wonder he had been wandering around the sea for so long before, and he hadn’t found many pirate fleets, but these guys had already gathered together and began to rob the transport fleet, and he didn’t see that the 5 transport ships were still unharmed.

A smile appeared on Ye Bai’s face, and he turned to Lü Teyans and said: “General Lü Teyans, it’s up to you next, I only have one request, sink as many pirate warships as possible, and don’t forget to salvage the dropped treasure chest.” ”

Handed over the combat command of the fleet to Lütyans, and did not forget to remind a sentence, the problem of dropping the treasure chest, I couldn’t help but complain about the rules and settings of the system again, after sinking the enemy battleship, I even needed to salvage the treasure chest myself, there were so many Blue Star players on the battlefield, if they were salvaged by those guys, Ye Bai would not have to cry to death.

“Well, Your Excellency Commander, your previous judgment was correct.”

Lütyans first apologized, and then turned around and gave the order to the crew in the bridge: “The fleet sets sail, full speed situation, Yanhuang attacks the enemy light cruisers, Peng Ze and Yujiang attack pirate gunboats and destroyers.” ”

“Yes, Captain.”

The signal soldiers quickly relayed Lütyans’ order to the Pengze and Yujiang, and the three warships that regained their speed to the highest were divided into two ways, and quickly entered the battle area from two directions, and the three main gun turrets on the battleship had begun to slowly turn.

Ye Bai’s eyes rolled around, roughly guessed the intention of Lütyans, now for the Blue Star player fleet, the biggest threat is the pirate cruiser, fortunately, in the transport fleet, there is a light cruiser belonging to the aboriginal forces, which restrained it, otherwise, the loss of the Blue Star player fleet is not a mere 2 warships.

Despite this, the Blue Star player fleet is still at a disadvantage, and the pirate fleet has suppressed the Blue Star player fleet to death with the advantage of the number of destroyers and more.

In view of this situation, Lütyans will divide the Huaxia fleet into battles, Yanhuang will cooperate with the light cruiser of the aboriginal forces to besiege the pirate cruiser and sink the biggest threat, while the Peng Ze and Yujiang will support the Blue Star player warships.

This plan is very practical, don’t look at the combat power of the Huaxia fleet, but after all, the number is only 3, if you really want to be besieged by this pirate fleet with a number of nearly 20 ships, you may not be able to take advantage, so it is logical to rescue these cannon fodder of the Blue Star player fleet and win some helpers for yourself.

It was still the conventional way of playing of Lütyans, without the drag of the two destroyers Pengze and Yujiang, he directly soared to a maximum speed of 32 knots, quickly closed to a position of less than 6 kilometers with the pirate cruiser, and with an order, five torpedoes with a diameter of 533mm flew out of the torpedo tube.

“Poof” fell into the sea with a sound, and with a super high speed of more than 40 knots, with white trails, it rushed to the pirate cruiser in a fan shape.

After firing the torpedo, Lütyans did not look at the result of the attack at all, and immediately ordered the three twin 152mm guns on the Yanhuang to launch a shelling attack on the pirate cruiser.

In fact, long before the Chinese fleet entered the warring seas, the sea search radar equipped on the pirate light cruiser had already discovered their existence, don’t see that the pirate destroyer was not equipped with a search radar, but the light cruiser This level of battleship is still equipped above, even if the level is very low, the detection distance is not far, it is enough for them to find the Chinese fleet entering the battlefield.

Whether it was the identification function of friend or foe of the sea search radar or the flag hanging on the mast that the lookout saw visually, the pirate cruiser confirmed the identity of the Chinese fleet and immediately increased its vigilance.

Therefore, when the lookout found the wake of the 5 high-speed torpedoes while sailing, the pirate cruiser immediately began to carry out emergency evasion to avoid torpedo attacks.

After a flash, although it was not able to dodge all 5 torpedoes launched by the Yanhuang, it also managed to dodge 3, only to be hit by two 533mm diameter torpedoes, and two large holes were blown out near the waterline armor, fortunately, there were no important cabins nearby, except for the loss of 2000 armor points, which did not cause much damage to the performance of the battleship itself.

However, compared to the pirate cruiser, the light cruiser of the aboriginal forces discovered the existence of the Chinese fleet one step earlier, because the sea search radar they were equipped with had risen to the level of level 2, and the detection distance reached 20 kilometers, which was naturally one step faster than the pirates.

And the captain who commanded this light cruiser was also quite capable, and when the Yanhuang joined the battlefield, he ordered a fierce attack, pinned the attention of the pirate cruiser, and gave the Yanhuang the opportunity to attack, if it were not for their interference, I am afraid that the pirate cruiser would be able to dodge all 5 torpedoes.

“Boom”, “Boom”, “Boom”

They managed to dodge the attack of 3 torpedoes, but the situation of the pirate cruiser was not much better, because the Yanhuang and the aboriginal cruiser were on their left and right sides, constantly attacking with their main guns.

Sandwiched between two light cruisers of the same class, a large number of shells constantly flew from the left and right, fighting a group of pirates, their three twin 152mm guns were all aimed at the direction of the aboriginal cruiser before firing artillery attacks, at this time, it is impossible to immediately turn the turret and attack the Yanhuang Ding.
