Chapter 238: Entering the Tsushima Strait
After the major guilds and other game districts declared war on the Chinese game area, the players in the Korean game area who were stimulated launched a comprehensive counterattack against the Chinese seafaring players who stopped in their own coastal waters.
The battleship that had been stationed in the harbor drove out, and the sky was full of players riding flying creatures, and in a short period of time, a war belt was set up near the coast of the Korean game area.
The seafaring players in the Sanggang area were also counterattacked by Korean players on Jeju Island, and the two game areas were in full battle.
After the declaration of war in the game area of the Chinese game area, the major territories and guilds also sent their main fleets, and the warships of the Japanese game area to support the war in the waters of the Korean Peninsula will continue to arrive one day later. At that time, the Northern Lords Alliance in the Chinese game area will be attacked by the two game districts of South Korea and Japan.
As the leader of the Northern Lords Alliance of China's game area, Xu Man, the archon of the University Alliance, felt unprecedented pressure.
The war with the flying sand and rocks a few days ago was an internal war in the Chinese region, and the impact of victory or defeat only involved the participating lords.
And the outbreak of the East Asian naval war is related to the national fortunes of China's game area.
In the event of defeat, the Chinese game zone will be blocked by the encirclement formed by the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago at sea. If the sea passage is controlled by others, it will encounter a cold economic winter, and if you want to recover under the nose of the two major game areas, you can only slowly accumulate strength in addition to giving in.
The Northern Lords Alliance suppressed the Korean game area in order to prevent them from developing, and at that time, I am afraid that Korean players and Japanese players will also use the same method to deal with the Chinese game area.
Therefore, when the bigwigs in the Japanese game area and the Korean game area declared war on the Chinese game area one after another, Xu Man immediately ordered his own warships scattered on the sea to concentrate, and at the same time asked the lords and grand guilds in the north of China to build a large number of warships, and concentrate the troops that could fly to the coast to prepare for battle.
In the midst of various contacts and orders, Xu Man received the news that the ruling fleet was heading for the Tsushima Strait.
Xu Man immediately connected to Da Liang's communication: "Now the entire west coast of the Japanese game area and the east coast of the Korean game area are all fleets that are heading south to prepare for war. It is more dangerous for you to go to the Sea of Japan now than to break through to the south, and I will send a fleet to meet you, and it will be too late to decide that the fleet will turn around now. ”
Da Liang did not order the fleet to turn, he replied: "At this time, any fleet that comes to meet us will be sent to death. Your task now is to concentrate all our current warships and withstand the first round of attacks from Korean players and Japanese players, as long as we are not annihilated on a large scale in the early stage, we can buy time for the rear to prepare for the war, and with the support of the large rear, we can fight this naval battle into a protracted war and a war of attrition.
As long as we are not defeated, we will slowly retreat and shrink, shorten our defensive line, and block the enemy from the mainland side of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea.
In this way, this war can be sustained.
In the Sea of Japan, the ruling fleet had to go. Now that the entire shore of the Sea of Japan is a fleet heading south, I used to make those lords and grand guilds dare not not put a group of left-behind warships in their territories and garrisons, and they also need a fleet of a certain size to encircle and suppress me, which can effectively reduce the pressure on your side. ”
Yes, once the ruling fleet enters the Sea of Japan. People who have seen the scenes of Dongyue Ling being bombed and shelled do not dare to take them lightly.
It was necessary to have a fleet for defense in coastal territories and stations, and it was necessary to find and annihilate the adjudicator fleet in the vast Sea of Japan, which also required a large number of men and ships.
It can be said that as long as the ruling fleet enters the Sea of Japan smoothly, it will be like putting a wolf next to the bigwigs on the east coast of the Korean zone and the west coast of the Japanese zone.
I have to guard against it, and it's hard to catch it.
As Da Liang said, the entry of the ruling fleet into the Sea of Japan can effectively relieve the pressure on the frontal battlefield. The longer the frontal battlefield lasts, the more adequate the rear preparations will be, and a war will not be completely defeated.
Xu Man didn't stop Da Liang anymore, but asked, "What help do you need me to provide you?" ”
"Supplies. Although I have allowed the fleet's auxiliary ships to smuggle through the Korean Strait, it is still unknown whether they will be able to get there, and it will be determined that the fleet will need constant supplies if it wants to stay in the Sea of Japan for a long time. Artillery shells, gunpowder, supplies, and flying classes. ”
Xu Man said: "I want to find a way for the overseas students to solve the supplies. ”
"There are also ships, and the battleships lost in battle also need to be replenished."
"I'll give them the drawings, let them make them nearby, and then find a way to send them to you along with the supplies."
Da Liang took out a batch of drawings of the brig and mailed it to Xu Man: "Let them build the ...... of the brig"
The Judgment fleet headed for the Tsushima Strait, and the Boxer fleet was in hot pursuit from a kilometer behind. In order to intercept the adjudicator fleet, Yagami-an also abandoned the slow auxiliary fleet and increased the speed to the maximum.
On the bright charts, the Adjudication Legion's back-end data personnel continued to provide him with information on the Tsushima Strait.
As the busiest strait in East Asia, hundreds of ships of all kinds pass through it every day. There are giant merchant ships in the system city, and there are also small fishing boats in the hands of the player.
The news of the imminent entry of the Adjudicator Fleet into the Tsushima Strait has arrived, and the player's ships immediately evade to the sides and get out of the way of the central channel. There were also warships coming out of the harbors on both sides of the Tsushima Strait in an attempt to block the Judgment Fleet here.
Anyone with a bit of a savvy can see what kind of harm would be caused if the Adjudicator Fleet were to be put into the Sea of Japan, and as long as they were not annihilated in time, the support for the East Asian naval war around the Sea of Japan would be discounted to a certain extent.
The warships responsible for the blockade had already occupied the fairway, and the ruling fleet continued to advance along the median line of the strait.
Any flying creature uses the time limit of staying in the air, the lower the level, the shorter the time to stay in the air, passing through the middle of the strait, you can greatly reduce the danger in the air, and those flying classes that take off from both sides of the strait have little strength to fly here.
The adjudication fleet only needs to fend off the flying forces that come with the ship.
As the Adjudicator Fleet began to enter the Tsushima Strait, the information of the fleet intercepted in front was also passed on by intelligence officers.
Two brigs, 80 sloops, and many more were on their way, especially those heading south from the west coast of Japan's main island of Honshu, and if they were delayed in the Tsushima Strait for too long, the Judgment Fleet would be confronted with a steady stream of southbound fleets.
Da Liang walked out of the captain's room of the "Dolphin" and stood on the bridge, and now the fleet entered the Tsushima Strait from the southwest, and the sea breeze from the northwest blew up the sails with adjusted angles, driving the hull to move quickly. The bow of the ship broke through the water, and waves crashed on the bow.
Behind the "Dolphin" were seven other brigs, and the excellent quality of the sailors allowed the ships to maintain a reasonable distance.
On the flanks of the main fleet were sub-fleets of dhows, which were layered to defend each other's weak positions in each formation.
In the air, Shu Xiao's air combat troops firmly held the airspace above the fleet, and at this time, air combat personnel in many places had appeared in the surrounding sky, and when the other party did not attack, it was ruled that the air combat troops had no intention of driving them away.
Everything, with the protection of the main forces of the fleet through the Tsushima Strait as the primary task.
Julian stood alone at the rear of the fleet, and she made the enemy archangel feel the pressure. Without the cover of the Titans, this archangel did not intend to face this fellow man alone who was above him in terms of hero level and talent.
The King of Fighters' fleet chased after the rear at full speed, and Yagami's shouting and scolding never stopped for a moment on the regional channel.
"Da Liang, you coward......"
"Decide if the fleet dares to fight with me......"
"I ......"
“……”
Da Liang did not respond to any provocations, but simply issued combat orders to the detachments step by step, while keeping an eye on any changes on the charts.
"Legion Commander, the guy who has found us tracking is a ghost dragon."
The Ghost Dragon is a level 14 creature of the undead that does not need to breathe, and its body structure is also suitable for swimming under the surface of the water for long periods of time, and the underwater speed can keep up with the sailing of ships.
However, monitoring and providing detailed video information also requires the cooperation of the player.
A player with only his head exposed is indeed very inconspicuous on the surface of the sea, which is why the Ruling Fleet Scouts did not find him in the first place, and when the Scouts focused on the water, the player who had been following the fleet was found, and then the Ghost Dragon was also discovered.
Da Liang glanced at the photos from the background data personnel, and then said: "Keep an eye on him, don't alarm him for the time being, don't let him know that he has been discovered by us." The adjudication fleet is about to take on the enemy, and your personnel in charge of data will cooperate with this breakout battle. ”
The data link connects the ships, and the captains can clearly see all kinds of data of their own ships and friendly ships through the corps command system, such as the hull condition, ship speed, gun angle, and command course. Air crews can also view weak areas of the fleet's air defense at any time and support any area as needed.
The command system of the Adjudicator Corps was put in motion, and the entire fleet was brought into a perfect whole.
The scorching sun had risen to its highest level in the sky, the enemy's air combat forces had gathered from all directions, and the interception fleet in the sea ahead had been revealed, and they were lined up in a long line of battle on the sea under the leadership of two brigs.
All the gun doors opened, and the swarthy muzzles were aimed at the approaching Adjudicator fleet.
"Broken Moon guards the skies above the fleet. The fleet is concentrated in the middle lane, and all the ship-accompanying mages prepare your strongest attack spells, and immediately release the artillery that suppresses the enemy as soon as they enter range. ”
The ruling fleet tightened into a dense formation, and all the casters on the battleship stood on a high ground.
The fleet continued to move, and Da Liang stood on the bridge and pointed to the sky ahead.
"Magic Unleashed!"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The artillery roared, and the interceptor fleet fired a volley of shells at the charging ruling fleet.
At the same time, various colors of magic were released from the ships of the Judgment Fleet and flew towards the Interceptor Fleet.
