VRMMO: Passing of the Sword Chapter 1006: Harass the combat fleet
March 1, 2222.
The wars in the four major regions have undergone some changes again. The African region and the European and American regions have temporarily stopped attacking each other. Large-scale offensive and defensive battles have not occurred again, and at the same time, the usually extremely risky encounters have not started again. Pass. On the contrary, there were a lot of small-scale annihilation battles and sneak attack battles. As far as the results of the round were concerned, not many players were killed in battle.
The Asian region seems to realize that an active attack will eventually be a waste of self, so it has slowed down for the time being, and no war broke out on the border front.
On the contrary, in terms of the sea area, the friction that broke out in the sea area in advance should not be at this time, mainly because Huaxia took the initiative to find something to do.
It doesn't capture coastal cities and land or anything, and it doesn't occupy the designated sea area all the time. Anyway, it just runs away when the coastal defense line is enlarged, taking advantage of the range advantage of their improved artillery. Although the power has been greatly reduced, the salvo of many artillery is also not a joke.
"How many harvests are there today?"
On the 300-meter ship of the Emperor's Guild, a well-equipped player asked leisurely. He is the high-level recruited by the Emperor's Guild in the game. In reality, his identity is the son of a retired naval general. He has cultivated a good knowledge of naval warfare since he was a child. Although he did not join the army in reality, his ability has been practiced in the game.
The name is Boundless Sea.
The low-key great man found that this guy has good abilities, so he also has a share in the harassment tasks assigned in turn, just to see if he can produce better results.
To be honest, although the low-key great man has built a player navy and knows what to do, he doesn't have any confidence in commanding naval battles. If he was asked to command the space fleet, he said that he would be able to play a little bit, but if it was the navy fleet, it would be fine, it would not be as good as his wife Li Lili commanding.
Many times, he played a leading role in commanding the navy. When it comes to the real naval battle, he will definitely not be the one commanding the navy.
The most simple and straightforward reason is...
He really can't beat thunderstorms in the sea. In terms of contract partners, Qilin is a "landlubber" level existence. Basically, he can only throw skills in the sky in sea battles, which is completely useless.
So the main battlefields he will be in charge of in the future will still be land wars or air battles, and sea battles will be handed over to his own player navy, and he will not participate in command.
"Captain, we completely destroyed Vietnam's coastal defenses again today. At the same time, according to your instructions, we did not lose any ships. The only ones that were seriously damaged were the three 100-meter-class ships in charge of the rear. The light cruiser has already returned to the port ahead of schedule." The subordinate reported.
"Hmph, I see who else is competing with me for the command of the navy. I'm the only one who has not damaged a single ship in the harassing battle." Boundless Sea said proudly.
"But this is not enough. This is only the initial stage where I have gained an advantage. The rest of the competitors are still capable. Let me think about... Can I continue to expand my advantage?" Boundless Sea thought to himself.
"The Japanese fleet behind is still chasing us, right?" Infinite Sea asked suddenly.
"Yes, but after chasing for another 30 kilometers at most, they will turn around and return. According to the information provided by the rest of the fleet, they are almost near the Gray Sand Islands." The subordinate reported with a data panel.
"Mashan is about to enter the Gray Sand Islands, right?" Boundless Sea.
"Yes, Captain, now you can see the first island of the Gray Sand Islands." The subordinate gestured forward with his hands.
Sure enough, on the sea level, I saw a small dot. The sea level in the game world is very small, which is different from the earth. The game domain world is not a planet, but a real fantasy world with a round sky, but the ground is not completely flat, but has a certain degree of arching.
So in general, the view of the sea in the game world will be far away, but there is still a handover of the sky and the sea in the real world.
"Grey Sand Islands..." Boundless Sea called up the map.
As shown on the map, the Huisha Islands have a total of 53 large and small islands, the largest of which has a diameter of two kilometers and a maximum height of two hundred meters. There are no NPCs on the archipelago, because before that, there were still a large number of threatening gray rock sea snakes in the Gray Sand Islands, and there was a 180-level gray rock sea snake king, which was not enough for the navies who had been trained in the follow-up to clean it up.
The environment of the island is complex. Ships over 200 meters in size must be careful with navigation signals, otherwise there will be problems such as grounding or difficulty in turning.
Three roads have been opened up between the islands, which can be used by 300-meter-class ships to sail safely, and can guarantee the straight navigation of 500-meter-class motherships. Although the mothership was not dispatched in the harassment operation, the necessary waterways still had to be cleared, which was also to pave the way for the subsequent naval battle.
"In the past, didn't they dare to enter the range of the Gray Sand Islands, and would return from outside the Gray Sand Islands?" asked Boundless Sea.
"Yes, but small destroyers or fast patrol boats will also be sent into the range of the archipelago to check whether we have really left. If they are angry, people who enter the archipelago will also place some trigger magic, although it is harmful to the ship It won't pose too many threats, but it can be regarded as a retaliatory warning."
"Looks like they didn't release it last time." Wu Yinhai smiled.
They passed by the Huisha Islands when they came, but they didn't receive any disturbance, and what he meant was that the previous fleet obviously didn't bring enough anger to the Japanese area, not even this little bit of revenge.
"Then this time, I will give the little Japan behind a little surprise. After all, we have caused a lot of damage today, and we didn't even sink a cruiser or destroyer. I think I should be very angry." .” The boundless sea smiled sinisterly.
"Do you know who is the Japanese commander who is in charge of the pursuit this time?" Infinite Sea asked.
"Originally it was not clear, but ten minutes ago, it was detected by a player behind us. It is the commander of the Japanese Utopia Guild, and the Japanese player who currently has known display data—— Kato Hiroshi."
"Kato Hiroshi? I know this guy. The president gave me information about him. He is a Japanese right-winger, an absolute main fighter. At the same time, the president gave an evaluation that he played aggressively and powerfully. He is a rather difficult guy with suppressing power and stability." Wu Bianhai knew this person.
"Guys who can maintain a stable personality are not easy to be fooled, but stability is not something that cannot be used..." Wu Yinhai smiled, and he seemed to have thought of a good idea.
"Captain, are you going to fight? The president said that if you fight back during the retreat and the damage caused by the battle does not exceed 1:3, it will be considered unqualified." The subordinate reminded in good faith road.
It is also specially instructed by the low-key great man. These people around the captain are not only subordinates, but also scorers and warnings.
"Why not fight? Is it possible that I will enter the next round of naval commander selection with such a slight advantage? The fleet led by Hiroshi Kato is about the same size as ours, but in terms of carrying weapons, both in terms of range and power They are smaller than us, and the reason why they dare to pursue it is because it is now their territorial waters, their support speed can be faster, and our ammunition consumption is too high.”
"But as long as we attack hard enough and fast enough to crush them with an absolute advantage, our remaining ammunition can even not annihilate them at all!"
"Even in order to better deal with guerrilla warfare at sea, all of our ships have been specially enhanced with power magic. They were originally 10% faster than them in terms of sailing speed, but we are basically under pressure. , not sailing at full speed."
Boundless Sea is very clear about the strengths and weaknesses of its own fleet, they can only fight one wave, otherwise they will have no enough ammunition after the fight, and can only flee in embarrassment. Even if it is held back, it is very likely that it will be annihilated by the Japanese fleet that came to support it.
"And the president of the emperor must think so!?" Wu Yinhai suddenly became excited.
"Every candidate for the commander-in-chief must have noticed a long time ago, that is, the artillery and ammunition allocated to us by the logistics every time is just enough to destroy the coastal defense line, and the rest can just wipe out the chasing navy. , even if there is a difference, there will not be too much, and the logistics are all calculated."
"This is already a hint to us, but they are not absolutely sure that they will achieve at least 1:3 battle damage with the only ammunition they have."
"But... I can!"
Boundless Sea suddenly stood up and looked towards the Gray Sand Islands ahead.
"The flank and end destroyers of the whole army listened to the order, and pulled up the smoke screen to confuse the vision!"
"The counselors all turn on the anti-reconnaissance magic to prevent the prying eyes of the chasing fleet, and at the same time apply auxiliary magic to the melee units, ready to sneak into the bottom of the sea!"
"The whole army obeys the order! After the smoke screen is drawn, the whole army circles the Gray Sand Islands at the fastest speed, then crosses around and turns around, and all the artillery ammunition is loaded!"
The order of the boundless sea has been issued.
At the same time, the low-key great man far away in Haisu City also received a message from the fleet.
It was reported by the subordinates of the boundless sea. Once the commander in charge has such a counterattack, they should contact him as soon as possible.
"Report to the chairman, the captain of the boundless sea is ready to counterattack the pursuit fleet, and has begun to deploy in the gray sand islands!" The subordinate reported.
"Interesting, he really dared to do it. It just so happens that I'm free now, so I opened the video link and I want to watch the real-time combat screen." The low-key great man said with great interest.
At the same time, I was very relieved: "Finally some candidates dare to fight back, but how far can you do it? Or do you have the ability to force out the Japanese side's cards?"
Video communication is being transferred...
…
At the same time, the fleet led by Infinite Sea has already begun to enter the range of the Gray Sand Islands, but it has not entered the Gray Sand Islands. In the sea terrain of the Huisha Islands, except for destroyers and small cruisers, large battleships, that is, ships of the 300-meter class, cannot flexibly change direction.
If you even want to launch a quick counterattack, ships of the 200-meter level cannot enter.
Pull the smoke screen and speed up.
This feeling, like getting out of the final pursuit, is also a commonly used tactic. When they escaped, they often used this method, and even at the beginning, the Japanese fleet did not dare to pursue them, but after a few more times, it had no effect.
If you are reckless, as long as you don't run too far, you can directly plunge into the smoke screen.
For example, now that we have arrived at the Gray Sand Islands, and we are far away, if we want to continue to pursue them, we will send some fast destroyers with some wind mages to blow away the smoke and it will be done.
After all, they still need to ensure that they know whether the Huaxia Fleet is really gone, whether they will continue to kill a carbine and so on, so these smoke screens must be eliminated.
