All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

Although this time the war between Yixin Island and the pirate forces was a bit anticlimactic, and Ye Bai was quite disappointed, there was still a vague idea lingering in Ye Bai's mind.

Ye Bai felt that this time, due to some mistake, a conflict broke out between Yixin Island and the pirate forces to such a degree that even the main fleets of both sides were wiped out. If there were no systematic restrictions, I am afraid that both forces would have It’s time to fight hard.

Although Ye Bai didn't get any big deal in the end, it opened up his ideas and opened his mind. An idea vaguely appeared in his mind, but it was still a little vague, but Ye Bai always had a feeling. , if he can perfect this idea and implement it successfully, its effect will be no less than that of the small space in the logistics cabin.

The fleet was racing all the way on the sea at a speed of 28 knots. Now Ye Bai finally firmed up his mind, that is, try not to get involved in the competition between the indigenous forces. Anyway, those resource points that appear in various sea areas are also He couldn't be contained in a small space, which made him even less interested.

While most of the players and aboriginal forces are focusing on the resource points everywhere, he can just focus on developing the map of the great navigation world. If the navigation map can be completely improved, other The effect is quite large.

It just so happens that while sailing in the great maritime world, you can also conduct arms transactions with various indigenous forces, without delaying anything. If you are lucky enough to encounter a pirate base, you will naturally not be polite at all, but it doesn't matter. Go to the resource point.

It is with this idea that although the Chinese fleet is moving all the way towards a fixed goal in 05, it will occasionally adjust its course midway. Especially three days after the fleet sailed, the three Fletcher-class ships built by the shipyard The destroyer was successfully completed and joined the fleet combat sequence.

During the fleet's voyage, several destroyers will always be scattered around the fleet, about 20 kilometers away from the main force of the fleet, to expand the effective detection range of the sea search radar.

Once a certain destroyer discovers something is wrong, the Yanhuang can immediately launch a carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft to carry out targeted and detailed reconnaissance of the sea area. Compared with the previous aimless large-scale reconnaissance, the effect is much better.

However, there is also a flaw in this, that is, it can only control the sea area within 7 or 80 kilometers around the fleet. No more can be done unless the radar systems on each warship continue to be upgraded to continue to improve the effectiveness of the search radar. detection range.

However, this kind of radar detection ability is unique among all players. Even many aboriginal forces and pirate forces cannot match it. Ye Bai is completely satisfied.

The process of sailing is still so boring. If he didn't occasionally encounter some small-scale pirate fleets, Ye Bai would really collapse. With the current strength of the Chinese fleet, it is naturally no match for the main fleet of the pirate forces, but some For a small fleet, the situation is completely different.

When the three Brooklyn-class light cruisers built in the shipyard were also completed and put into service, the strength of the entire Chinese fleet has been slightly improved, including 1 aircraft carrier, 2 heavy cruisers, 4 light cruisers and 8 destroyers. , the total number of battleships reached 15.

And although the Yanhuang is essentially just an escort aircraft carrier, in fact, with a hangar modified with space crystals, a transmission platform, and an angled flight deck, the actual combat capabilities of the Yanhuang far exceed that of an escort aircraft carrier..

It is not even comparable to light aircraft carriers and heavy aircraft carriers. It has completely reached the point where one warship can match three or even four heavy aircraft carriers.

The overtime work at the aircraft manufacturing plant consumed a lot of raw materials, and finally the number of carrier-based aircraft on the Yanhuang reached the previous scale.

64SBD carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft, 128 F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighters, 128 SBD Dauntless dive bombers, 128 TBF Avenger torpedo bombers, 32 Kingfisher seaplanes, a total of 480 carrier-based aircraft of various types.

After discussing with Ramsey, Ye Bai decided to keep the Yanhuang's carrier-based aircraft at this scale in the future, and add some more carrier-based bombers and torpedo attack aircraft at most. If a battle breaks out, it can be divided into three attack waves, one A maximum of nearly 150 carrier-based aircraft can be dispatched in each wave, and the air strike capability is quite terrifying.

It is also because of this guiding ideology that although the carrier-based aircraft on the Yanhuang are almost fully equipped, the aircraft manufacturer still has no intention of stopping work. It has only reduced its production capacity and does not need to work overtime day and night.

These carrier-based aircraft produced again are basically stored in the hangar as spare fighters, and can be pulled out at any time when needed.

I don't know if Ye Bai's luck has been exhausted or if the pirates have all shrunk. Along the way, except for the occasional encounter with some small-scale pirate fleets, he has not encountered any large-scale pirates. fleet.

The highest-level battleships encountered were just heavy cruisers, and their numbers were quite rare. There was often only one heavy cruiser in a fleet, and the rest were all small battleships such as light cruisers and destroyers.

Not only are there inexplicably fewer pirate forces, but it is also difficult to see the transport fleets of the indigenous forces. This situation is quite abnormal.

You must know that after the last system activity ended, the system refreshed a lot of resource points in various sea areas. With the help of a large number of players, most of the resource points were found and handed over to Aboriginal forces.

Therefore, during this period of time, the aboriginal forces dispatched a large number of transport fleets specifically responsible for transporting raw materials mined from resource points. They also recruited many player warships to serve as escort warships.

It can be said that the players have been living quite comfortably during this period of time. They took over tasks from the aboriginal forces and formed a fleet to escort the transport fleet.

There was no need to take the initiative to search for them. Those pirate warships appeared one by one, giving players a chance. In the past, they fought alone, but when they encountered a large number of pirate warships, they immediately turned around and fled.

But they don't need it now. With the help of other players and even aboriginal warships, the small group of pirate warships are no match for them at all, allowing these escort players to make a small profit.

After all, after sinking a pirate warship in battle, you can obtain dropped treasure boxes and system rewards, and at the same time successfully escort a transport fleet. After returning to the island, you can also receive mission rewards from the indigenous forces again. It is simply double happiness. ah.

Therefore, in various sea areas, individual warships rarely appear. Most of them are large-scale fleet formations, and they are quite frequent. It seems that the entire world of navigation seems to be particularly lively.

But now these fleets that usually encounter them four or five times a day have not even encountered them. They often encounter them once at most in a day, and sometimes they don't even encounter them at all. This situation is completely contrary to common sense. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Puzzled, Ye Bai could only put it in the chat section, hoping to find some abnormal signals from the messages of those players.

To be honest, since he started selling destroyers in the trading section, Ye Bai has rarely paid attention to the chat section. Anyway, with that guy Wu Yichun here, if there is any special situation among the players, this guy will send a message immediately give him.

Wu Yichun didn't send a message this time, so Ye Bai subconsciously thought that there was no special situation among the players. It wasn't until he realized something was wrong that he finally remembered the chat section.

Opening the system panel and entering the chat section that he had not entered for many days, Ye Bai briefly browsed through the players' messages and almost gave himself a slap in the face on the spot. This time, he was indeed negligent.

It turns out that the players are not lazy, nor are there no tasks to be performed, but the aboriginal forces have taken action. When each player's warship docked at the aboriginal force dock port, they were all notified by the aborigines that the sea area was blocked recently. Wait for notification when the lockdown will be lifted.

Players were naturally dissatisfied with such an unexpected situation, and protested to the indigenous forces one after another, and even almost had an armed conflict. However, later the indigenous forces came forward again and just told a group of angry and dissatisfied players that this was a warning from the system. Only then did the players be reluctantly appeased.

As a player, you don't have to believe in anything else, but you have to believe in the system. No matter what the purpose behind this mysterious system is, until now, all players have relied on the help of the system to survive. This cannot be changed.

Although they were reluctantly appeased, the discussions among the players never stopped. After all, the aboriginal forces' statement was a bit strange. If it was really a warning from the system, why not convey it directly to every player through prompt information.

However, if it is not the system's instruction, all the indigenous forces cannot go crazy and keep the players on the island.

It’s not that the players are belittling themselves. Regardless of the large number of players, if there is a conflict with the aboriginal forces, the result will definitely be a disastrous defeat for the players. Therefore, if the aboriginal forces want to be disadvantageous to the players, they don’t have to go to such trouble and just do it directly. That's it.

The key is that this time it is not a certain or a small number of aboriginal forces that restrict players from going to sea, but all aboriginal forces discovered by players are involved. This cannot help players not to think deeply.

This is why the number of player warships appearing in various sea areas has plummeted. As the number of player warships decreases, the number of pirate warships refreshed by the system also decreases greatly. Only then did Ye Bai feel strange and abnormal. Case..
