On the "Yi Shi".

After watching the enemy plane turn and fly away, Takaji closed his eyes and sighed heavily.

Although I received a telegram from the base camp before dawn that the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet had not been in the Asuhai, and had already entered the east ocean, and was just south of the Ball Port, more than 300 kilometers away from the Watcher Strait last evening, Takaji did not take it seriously at that time.

The telegram also mentioned that last night, after the submarine rushing to Tuk Naval Base discovered the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet, the base camp immediately made adjustments to allow the Sixth Cruiser Fleet, which covered the transport fleet to move south quickly, and strive to intercept the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet before dawn.

The battle is indeed developing in this direction.

Shortly after the base camp sent a telegram, the Rixiang intercepted the telegram from the Qingye heavy cruiser and learned that the Sixth Cruiser team had encountered the enemy and was chasing two aircraft carriers at full speed. It is estimated that they could catch up and sink the two aircraft carriers after dawn.

The telegram from the "Qingye" number, which is the news of fighting with the enemy ship, just coincides with the inferences made by the base camp before.

Because the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet has not used long-wave radio stations and has not contacted the outside world, it appeared in the east of the Double Car Strait in the early morning of the 27th and attacked the cruisers of the first main team may not be able to meet with the aircraft carrier again, and may return alone after completing the mission.

Without the cover of cruisers, the two fleet aircraft carriers did not even have the strength to parry in front of four heavy cruisers.

It can be seen that the battle over there is almost certainty.

If that's the case, what's there to worry about?

Although the battle of the second main force team has ended, and after returning to the Saiyi land, it will take at least a few months or even more than a year to repair the four battleships, Takaji has always believed that the battle belonging to the Saiyi Navy is far from over.

Without an aircraft carrier, can’t we fight?

Without Takano, the Navy would have no commander who could command fleet operations?

Don't forget that Lan Yun is still there, and all four fast battleships organized into the mobile fleet are here and will arrive at Tuc Naval Base in a few days.

The key is that both super battleships can be built next year.

With two super battleships that are unique in the world, are you still afraid that you can't beat Liang Xia's Navy?

Unexpectedly, the dream was broken again.

It was almost noon, and when he received the message forwarded by the base camp, Takaji was immediately frightened.

The Sixth Cruiser Team was strongly blocked, and all four heavy cruisers sank, and they failed to destroy two aircraft carriers before being blocked.

According to the last telegram, the two aircraft carriers still have aviation combat capabilities!

What the four heavy cruisers fought to the death was nothing more than driving the two aircraft carriers southward for more than a hundred kilometers.

Still in the morning, the bombing operation organized, planned and implemented by the Military Command also failed.

Nearly 100 Type 96 land attackers were intercepted many times before they arrived at the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet. Although after a arduous battle, some land attackers flew over the fleet and dropped bombs, none of them hit, and both aircraft carriers were unscathed.

The land attack aircraft group suffered heavy losses, and less than ten of them returned!

Shortly after that, the troop transport fleet was bombed, all the troop transport ships were sunk, and all the attacks were ship-based aircraft.

After receiving this telegram, Takaji called several captains.

Nothing else, just prepare for the worst possible situation.

Several captains knew this.

All four battleships were severely damaged. Even if they were not bombed, they might not be able to return to the Nai land and would most likely sink on their way back.

To put it seriously, as long as the weather gets worse, the wind is stronger, and the waves are higher, these four battleships have a risk of sinking. If you are lucky, you don’t need to bother God when you encounter a submarine of Liang Xia’s Navy. A few torpedoes can send the four battleships to the bottom of the sea.

If bombing is done, it will definitely be a disaster.

Takaji made arrangements in person.

If the worst situation occurs, you can only give up the warship, and the captain arranges the officers and soldiers to transfer to the cruiser and take the cruiser home.

Here, Takaji emphasized one thing.

Commander-in-Chief Takano has followed the "Gate" to die for his country. The Navy is facing the most severe test in a century and requires all officers and soldiers to work together.

Everything is the most important thing!

The two super battleships that are being built at a rapid pace have no supporting officers and soldiers, so they must preserve the officers and soldiers and allow the two super battleships to form combat effectiveness in a timely manner.

In Takano's words: After the warship is built, if no one controls it, it will be just a pile of scrap iron.

After convinced the four captains, Takaji made a second-hand arrangement and sent a telegram to Colonel Guojun of the "Gaoxiong" and asked him to lead the Fourth Cruiser Team to come.

Send the Fourth Cruiser Team to deal with the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet?

Not to mention the distance between hundreds of kilometers, even if it is dozens of kilometers away, the Fourth Cruiser Team may not be able to handle four "Wuzhou"-class heavy cruisers.

Although Takaji never regarded aircraft carriers as the main force, he knew the performance of warships well.

To be precise, he still has a little bit of self-knowledge.

The "Gaoxiong" class is known as the "strongest treaty-type heavy cruiser", but the "Wuzhou" class of the Liangxia Empire has broken through the treaty restrictions and is a post-treaty heavy cruiser. If you really want to say it, it is because the development of the new ship gun did not keep up, so you can only continue to use the 200mm naval gun during the treaty.

After noon, about half an hour ago, four heavy cruisers chased after him.

When the reconnaissance plane approached, the Gaoxiong, who was responsible for covering the "Ishi", fired several shots into the air, even if they were useless.

Now, the second main team has been exposed, and even the Fourth Cruiser Team has been discovered.

What else can it be?

"Report!"

The telecommunications officer suddenly ran over and shouted, which scared Takaji to tremble for a few times.

A message, just received.

Forwarded by the Military Command, a confirmed piece of information.

Just before dawn, after the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet was discovered by the Sixth Cruiser Fleet, the combat aircraft of the First Shipboard Air Force, which had arrived at the island the night before, had left the Naval Air Station of the Lotus Military Port. It is speculated that it is likely to fly to the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet.

After obtaining the strengthening of the First Ship-Board Air Force, what else is there that the Third Air Special Mixed Fleet dare not do?

"Commander..."

"Go and give orders." Takaji did not turn around and handed the message to the captain who was walking over. "The situation is over, and our efforts are over here."

After taking the message, the captain was stunned immediately.

Even though the first carrier-based aviation gang was not complete, there were more than 80 carrier-based aircraft, most of which were bombers and torpedo aircraft.

Not to mention killing the second main team that is already dying, it is not difficult to sank four heavy cruisers.

No matter how bad it is, it will definitely damage eight battleships.

Don’t forget that Liang Xia’s local fleet is right behind, so you may not be able to catch up at any time. There are a total of six battleships!

Hesitation will kill more people!

When the captain suddenly came to his senses, Takaji was gone.

After being secretly surprised, the captain went to issue an order.

As for Takaji, he had already made the decision to live and die with the flagship.
Chapter completed!
