readx;? Noticing signs that the Veneto fleet was preparing to attack the Normandy star sector after converging with the Brittany navy, Prestige did not carelessly report the situation to Ulster, and while urgently making contact with Nelson's side. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because he had always been on guard against the Brittany army, Nelson had always ordered the fleet to maintain the defensive line on alert When the prestige who squinted one eye saw Nelson, Nelson frowned and asked helplessly, "Why did you start learning that I closed one eye." ”

"Don't worry about the details. Even in the face of battle, she still waved her hand with grace and calmness, not worried about the next battle of life and death, she said, "The Admiral has already found a way to deal with it, the Prince of Wales has arrived with a fleet from the capital star, and our goal is to destroy the fleet of Brittany and inflict damage on the fleet of Veneto until the Prince of Wales leads the main fleet to arrive and completely destroy Veneto." ”

Nelson, who was cautious by nature, frowned deeper and said: "If the Prince of Wales has too many fleets, what should be done with the defense of the capital star sector? The newly commissioned Lion-class and N3-class battleships have all been dispatched, and if she leaves the capital star sector again, there will be no main fleet available." ”

The Admiral also considered whether it could be the conspiracy of the Admiral Yue Zhong, but through Chester William's conclusion, he did not have the opportunity to contact Veneto after being placed under house arrest, and it was also unexpected that Veneto's fleet would appear here, the Prince of Wales was temporarily ordered to go on the expedition during his daily patrol, and his whereabouts would not be revealed for a period of time, and after these suspicions were eliminated, the success rate of this attack on Veneto would be more than fifty percent. ”

Prestige had also discussed the situation with Ulster in depth, and Nelson, who was also the flagship of the command of a fleet, was entitled to know these things: "The Allies need to retain the living force of the A star field now, in case the S star field bursts out of their war potential. So now that the Allies were strapped for strength, the Prince of Wales' fleet was the last living force that could be used. ”

A flurry of explanations eased Nelson's doubts a little, but he was a little unhappy with the success rate of the operation: "Even the defense fleet of the capital sector has been withdrawn, or is it only half the success rate? ”

"If it's just a confrontation of ships, then the success rate is not so low, but Veneto and Andrea Doria have an unconventional way of fighting, and this operation can hit them hard even if the mission is completed, and the Greenwich Computing Center will not make a mistake in this algorithm. Speaking of this, Prestige rubbed his eyes with some annoyance and said, "I followed her all the way from the I Star Field, but Veneto herself chose to avoid the various battlefields prepared for her by the Admiral and ran here, and it is impossible to create more opportunities for other fleets to participate in a short period of time, the G Star Field has launched an attack on the Champagne Defense Line, everyone must do their best." ”

Nelson was in a slight trance, as if a certain sentence of prestige had touched a weakness in her heart, but the admiral who had self-motivated himself to do his duty, Nelson knew that now was not the time to be sentimental, and that now that the strategic plan had been formulated, it was his duty to faithfully carry it out: "Understood, let this be the end of her journey." ”

The specific tactical plan has been communicated by the prestige, and the next question is how to achieve it, whether it is offensive and defensive or pursuit and withdrawal, it is not a challenge for Nelson, who is proficient in all field operations, but at the same time as she clearly gives the order to deploy the defense, she vaguely feels a slight moistness in her hands.

Do you feel nervous too?

Perhaps, it's been a long time since I've felt like this, and the last time I had such a violent mood swing was when Bismarck sank Hood, and the girls of the capital ship of the E Star Field pursued her for revenge.

Veneto is not weaker than Bismarck, on the contrary, she is far stronger than Bismarck with an unconventional combat mode, and this time the E star field does not have much advantage in fleet size, and this mission must be a desperate battle.

"Sister, are you nervous too?" The person who knew Nelson best in the world must be her sister Rodney of the same level, even if she has a slight mood swing, Rodney can be keenly aware of it.

Nelson only looked at Rodney's eyes through the communication screen, sighed slightly, and said, "What do you think of that Admiral of Veneto?"

Rodney lowered his head and recalled seriously for a moment, and then said impartially: "When he was in the Capital Star, he was more powerful than us, so even if he has been locked up in the A Star Domain, it is not to be underestimated, the Admiral's action this time is a bit risky, is the threat of Veneto really so big?"

"It's not that she's a big threat, it's no bigger than the Void Fleet. Nelson closed his eyes and said, "If we can control her, at least we can bring Hood back safely." ”

Rodney almost thought that Ulster had given up on Hood, but he didn't expect that such a thought had always existed in his heart, and now Veneto's dangerous attack seemed to be an opportunity: "Then we will try to sink Veneto." ”

"Well, try your best. Nelson nodded heavily, full of determination.

Based on the military planetary triangle region, Nelson's defensive line is very forward, and her speed with Rodney is a weakness, if Veneto tries to escape when the situation is not good, they must be able to pursue as much as possible, in order to make up for this shortcoming, it is inevitable to be disconnected from ground defenses, and only land-based fighters can support it.

BigSeven's firepower has always been the focus of improvement, and it is also an indicator that the gap with the new hull of the Veneto is smaller, as long as the protection ability of the slightly inferior level is not directly hit by the armor, it is calculated that it can withstand Veneto's naval guns, so the task of resisting the Veneto can only be completed by two Nelson-class battleships,

As for Andrea Doria, and the three Britanni-class battleships, in Nelson's eyes, it seemed as if they couldn't see it, and the world of the shipwrecks had to speak by their achievements after all, and they were lacking such things.

The longbow is full, the front is in the millimeter line, the ship is guarded, the flick is solid, the two sides have made full preparations and layouts before the war, and they are full of confidence in victory, but the victory ultimately belongs to only one side, and it is not the belief that all wars will be won, or rely on their own strength and performance.

"Detection of enemy tracks, preparation for ultra-long-range artillery strikes. "The Veneto's range is unrivaled, and she must fire first in battle to seize the opportunity, and Litorio has learned this after getting acquainted with her ship's equipment, even if ultra-long-range artillery bombardment is still difficult for her, but she does not hesitate to aim at Nelson, the enemy's most powerful flagship.

Veneto's fleet and the Brittany army spread out before entering the Normandy Line, each heading towards their own objectives, the first of which was Veneto and Andrea Doria, and at the beginning of the battle there was no intention of hiding their tactical objectives, sailing at half speed to the middle point where Nelson and Rodney were sitting.

The bright light of the cannon brutally penetrated the warning surface of the defensive line, and the early warning shells began to explode under the violent kinetic impact, dyeing the entire sea of stars with a reddish color, and Andrea Doria's shelling followed closely behind, and rushed towards the Rodney when it entered the range limit.

In addition to the Indianapolis Army Transport Ship Group, the remaining three destroyers cooperated with the Brittany Navy to attack the weak area of the Normandy Line, and the three Brittany-class battleships were not to be left behind after Veneto and Andrea Doria opened fire, and the target of their attack was mainly by the E Star Domain Navy, with a small number of heavy cruisers in the F Star Field, trying to eradicate these existences that could withstand the fire of the coalition light cruisers and destroyers, and pose a threat to their interspersed operations.

In the face of the combined forces of the Veneto fleet and the Brittany fleet, the Allied defense line, which had a clear strategic idea, was not to be outdone, and the early release of physical torpedoes limited the offensive line of the Veneto coalition forces, and at the same time aimed their firepower at the Utopian that had broken away from the front.

"The BigSeven system was activated, and the front and rear guns were prepared for multiple firing, targeting the Veneto and Andrea Doria. "This is the first time that the firepower modules of the two E-Star Domain warships have been displayed in front of the world, and it is also where Nelson's greatest confidence lies.

Also by the precise design of the Greenwich Computing Center, on the premise of ensuring saturated firepower, the excess firepower of the two BigSeven-class battleships was liberated, so that the battleships could only carry out a single attack has become a thing of the past, Nelson and Rodney are loaded with this firepower module, with the support of the highest technology crystallization in the E star field, they are confident that they can win this local battle line 2v2 duel.

As Nelson and Rodney fired back, the front and rear of the two-way fire formed four brilliant beams of cannon light, and judging from the staggered shelling area alone, it was as if the E Star Field had four powerful battleships at the same time.

"Fantasy, don't go too deep, you have other tasks......" Litorio controlled Veneto's hull to bombard while also preparing to deal with the opponent's countermeasures, she had just performed the command duty of the flagship, so that the fantasy should not be too aggressive, when she suddenly saw the multiple of the ship's artillery attack, fell into a brief surprise.

The multiplier of the shelling made the evasion route even narrower, and if it weren't for Litorio's extra calculation of the artillery trajectory in advance to guard against the possibility of the enemy firing a salvo at him, after this millisecond pause, it would not have been as simple as the naval guns grazing the edge of the energy shield.

"The port side outboard radar is damaged beyond repair, the block is detached!" came Andrea Doria's nervous voice, who was also in a trance with Litorio for a moment, and a calculation error caused the first tentative shelling to be hit, worried about Veneto's reproach.

"It's not a big loss, concentrate on the enemy, don't make any more mistakes. Veneto once again played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army at this time, and analyzed rationally, "Knowing that they will use such an artillery bombardment, pay attention to precautions, the surprise attack can only be used this time, and if we don't hit us hard, they are too anxious." ”
