With such thoughts and excitement, no player questioned Halsey's order, and even acted quite actively, constantly urging his officers and soldiers to speed up and speed up.
With the speed of the third fleet and the player fleet exceeding 30 knots, it only took more than an hour to successfully reach a position less than 30 kilometers outside the mixed fleet.
At this point, Halsey did not hesitate and issued a new order again. The three Royal Ark-class light aircraft carriers under the Third Fleet, together with Wu Yichun's Brave-class light aircraft carrier, all stopped moving forward.
More than 20 light and heavy cruisers and destroyers and 3 Prestige-class battlecruisers were left as escorts to protect these 4 aircraft carriers.
All the remaining warships continued to move forward, sailing quickly while constantly adjusting the fleet formation according to the mixed fleet situation detected by the shipboard radar.
When Halsey brought about 100 warships to further close the distance between the two sides to less than 20 kilometers, Halsey directly gave the fleet an order to attack.
At this moment, the mixed fleet was undergoing indiscriminate bombardment from the third wave of attack aircraft that took off from the Yanhuang. Several aircraft carriers and escort aircraft carriers in the fleet had all sunk because their armor protection was too weak.
Although the two battlecruisers in the alien player's fleet are still floating firmly on the sea, the anti-aircraft firepower on the battleships has been almost completely destroyed. Even the main gun of one of them was blown up, and the interior of the ship was even more damaged. A large amount of water was taken in, and the speed was slowed down by several knots.
The Third Fleet's rapid approach with such great fanfare did not escape the detection of the ship's radar and had been discovered long ago. 380 But so what if they were discovered. There were a large number of carrier-based aircraft flying and circling in the sky, constantly dropping aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes, making the Alien players a little exhausted.
Even if some alien players want to lead their fleets to intercept the Third Fleet, they still need to break through the bombing of the carrier-based aircraft group in the air first. This is the biggest headache for them.
Perhaps they had received an order, or perhaps many bombers and torpedo planes had thrown away all their ammunition. In short, the alien players with the largest number of remaining warships first discovered that the bombing density from aerial carrier aircraft had decreased.
The alien players closest to the third fleet breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered all warships to adjust their course and turn around. According to the detection of the shipboard radar, a large enemy camp fleet was less than 20 meters away from them. kilometers.
The biggest threat to them now is no longer the densely packed attack fleet in the sky, but these surface warships.
"boom"、"boom"、""Boom!"
Just when the warships under the command of these alien players were adjusting their course urgently, a large number of artillery shells of different calibers roared over and fell on the sea. Explosions continued to sound. There were too many flying artillery shells. , the warship under the alien player is adjusting its course again, preparing to turn around. There is no way to avoid it immediately, and it is covered by a large number of shells. Amidst the violent explosion, a large amount of seawater rises into the sky, and groups of fireballs suddenly appear. Some unlucky people The battleship was directly hit by the shells and exploded on the hull. Thick smoke mixed with faint fire appeared on the alien player's battleship.
Finally, after the first round of shells fell, the alien players had no time to breathe. As soon as the tone came, the whistling sound caused by the friction between the cannonballs and the air when flying at high speed was heard in the distance. These alien players once again felt a chill all over their bodies, their anus tightened, and their faces became a little pale.
"boom"、"boom"、""Boom!"
The explosions of cannonballs continued to sound, and many warships that were turning were hit by cannonballs, igniting fires and losing a lot of armor value.
When these alien player warships finally completed the turn, they aimed their sides. When the third fleet was in the direction and launched the first round of salvo counterattack, these alien player's warships had withstood at least 6 rounds of salvo attacks from the third fleet and the player fleet. More than
100 warships had a full 6 rounds. The salvo attack fired nearly a thousand artillery shells of different calibers. Even if the hit rate of these shells was not high, there were always lucky shells and unlucky battleships colliding together. The result was that the The alien player warships that were heavily damaged in the three rounds of large-scale aerial bombardments were sunk by six rounds of naval gun salvos. There were also more than 10 other warships with new ones on their hulls. Scars.
These alien player fleets have just launched a few rounds of naval gun counterattacks, and most of the shells they fired have missed. The most outrageous thing is that some of the shells are even several kilometers away from the warships of the Third Fleet. Purely. Silence.
I thought I finally had a chance to enter a close-range artillery battle, but suddenly the roar of engines came from the sky in front of me again. Even the constant roar of artillery and the explosion of artillery shells could not cover up.
These alien players Looking up at the sky in front of me, I saw small black dots in the sky approaching quickly, getting closer and bigger, and gradually becoming clearer.
"It's over."
These Alien players who discovered the situation in the air were stunned, and one of them completely sank.
Those little black spots discovered by the Alien players were nothing else, but three Ark Royal-class light ships from the Third Fleet. The aircraft carrier and the attack aircraft group taking off from Wu Yichun's Brave-class light aircraft carrier.
Compared with the Yanhuang's generosity, although the Third Fleet has a total of 4 light aircraft carriers, the attack aircraft group in one wave is not large, only 100 They are just here to fly, accounting for one-third of all carrier-based aircraft.
Needless to say, the three Ark Royal-class light (abcc) aircraft carriers of the Third Fleet are the regular configuration of the Chinese fleet. The F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets, The SBD Dreadnought dive bomber and the TBF Avenger torpedo attack aircraft are the three main carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese fleet. The carrier-based aircraft taking off from the Brave-class light aircraft carrier in Wuyichun are more interesting, although they are not many in number. , there were only about 20 aircraft, half of the carrier-based aircraft were dispatched.
The F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighter, SBD Dreadnought dive bomber and TBF Avenger torpedo attack aircraft are also superior to the old carrier-based aircraft equipped by ordinary players.
Except for carrier-based fighter jets, which are little wildcats with poor performance, bombers and torpedo attack aircraft are currently the main carrier-based aircraft of the Chinese fleet. It can be seen that Ye Bai is really good at Wu Yichun.
This is actually what Ye Bai has considered before problem, as these players who join their own camp gradually become stronger, the number of escort aircraft carriers and even light aircraft carriers will definitely continue to increase in the future.
Just like now, except for Wu Yichun's ships have been upgraded to the light aircraft carrier level, following Wu Yichun Several players from Yuntong Island who came with Yichun also upgraded their ships to the escort aircraft carrier level.
For aircraft carriers, carrier-based aircraft are the most critical and important core weapon. If there are no carrier-based aircraft, An aircraft carrier is just an empty shell. It can't do anything. You can't rely on the anti-aircraft guns on it to bombard battleships.
The system mall has long stopped selling weapons and equipment to players. If they want to obtain carrier-based aircraft, players can only In addition, find ways to purchase. The only purchasing channel for these players active on Yuntong Island is Ye Bai.
At the beginning, Ye Bai also wanted to buy the Fulmar carrier-based fighter jets and Skua ships that the Chinese fleet has completely eliminated. Fighter-bombers and Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft are sold to these players. Anyway, in the current maritime world, many small indigenous forces are equipped with these carrier-based aircraft, which is not backward. But after thinking about it carefully, Ye Bai felt that it was not appropriate. The Chinese fleet has relied on the performance advantages of its equipment to take advantage of it to this day. Nowadays, these players have traveled thousands of miles to come to join him. You can't use these junk equipment to fool them. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) Ye Bai has made up his mind to train these players well, so naturally the supply of equipment cannot be exactly the same as that of ordinary players who also operate within his sphere of influence. Therefore.
Ye Bai simply opened up a carrier-based aircraft with better performance to these players, that is, the F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighter. Anyway, this carrier-based fighter lags behind the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter in all aspects of performance.
But unlike Wu Yichun, the bombers and torpedo attack aircraft opened to other players by Ye Bai are SB2U bombers and TBD destroyer torpedo attack aircraft.
The performance of these two carrier-based aircraft is naturally not as good as the SBD Dauntless dive bomber and TBF Avenger torpedo attack aircraft, but they are stronger than the current mainstream equipment in the world of navigation, the Skua carrier-based fighter bomber and the Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft, which are enough for those Core players now have an equipment advantage in daily battles.
Speaking of these two carrier-based aircraft, it is a surprise. They were developed by the scientists at the scientific research center based on the construction technology of carrier-based bombers and torpedo attack aircraft currently mastered by the Chinese fleet. They even A partial prototype was produced as an experiment.
However, after Ye Bai and Nimitz personally studied the various data of these two new carrier-based aircraft, they found that they were extremely similar to the SB2U dive bomber and TBD Destroyer torpedo attack aircraft, so Ye Bai made a big move. He directly named the two carrier-based aircraft independently developed by the scientific research center this name.
It was just an unexpected product at first, but it turned out to be useful, and was used by Ye Bai to equip the core players in the camp.
Ye Bai even plans to sell these three carrier-based aircraft to some friendly or affiliated forces as foreign military sales products in the future.
Of course, the equipment used for external sale will always be second-level equipment. The equipment with the best performance can only be equipped in the Chinese fleet. Even Wu Yichun, compared with those core players, must have certain qualifications. Advantages, but also slightly inferior..
