Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 70 Looking for an opponent
070 Looking for an opponent
The exercise proposed by Gibran was not an artillery exercise in the conventional sense, but more like a real battlefield.Therefore, at the beginning, the two sides quickly distanced themselves, and it was not until two hours later that the exercise officially began.

In Haiyouxing's reconnaissance field of view, the signal feedback is the endless sea. It is obvious that these two foreign sea souls from Gloria Island left her reconnaissance range early. Their speed is different from that of most sequence sea souls. The maximum speed is equivalent.

It was summer on Gloria Island, and the afternoon sun was extremely scorching, irritating Haiyouxing's skin like needles, and the radiation reflected from the sea surface made this scorching heat even more intense.This may be a moderate harm to ordinary people, but for the sea soul girls, at most it will only make them complain in their hearts, and it will not have much impact.

The sky is very blue, so blue that it makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The sea under the sky is even bluer, so blue that people are fascinated by it.

However, Haiyouxing was not in the mood to appreciate such a scenery. The information transmitted back by the investigation system was complex and detailed, and required the help of some intelligent systems to fully process it, but this also made her very headache.Another thing made her a little irritated. She had been searching for more than an hour on the sea, but there was still no trace of the two sea spirits around.

Do they need to travel so far?

Haiyouxing was very puzzled, and even suspected that Mark Irma ordered them to deliberately avoid the battle.

On the other side, Lexington and Saratoga were taking off and landing carrier-based aircraft in an orderly manner. As more and more reconnaissance aircraft were sent out, their reconnaissance range gradually expanded.The exercise venue was not a real battlefield. It was only a small area. Neither of the sisters needed intelligence about the enemy. They could find the location of Haiyou Star sooner or later just by searching like a carpet.

Although this method can be used to carry out ultra-long-distance reconnaissance, it is not without its shortcomings. First, a large number of carrier-based aircraft are required to achieve range reconnaissance without blind spots. Second, it is necessary to find mirage groups in this way. It's convenient, but it seems a little powerless when looking for a sea soul or a mirage.

When reconnaissance planes fly high in the sky, even ships on the sea look like small toys on the table. Therefore, even on the real battlefield of World War II, ship recognition errors often occur, such as the various forms of Yamato. , treating the oil tanker as an aircraft carrier and bombarding it.What's more, when searching for a person at a single point on the sea, they need to be more careful in their search and cannot miss any detail. Sometimes the sunlight reflected by a wave will arouse their suspicion.

In order to confirm the position of the Seabird, the reconnaissance aircraft had to start to descend in altitude and keep pace with the flying seabirds.

There is nothing on the empty sea. The rippling microwaves reflect the less dazzling sunlight. From time to time, fish jump out from the sea, and then quickly return to the sea.

A cannonball passed through the flock of birds and accurately hit the reconnaissance plane. The reconnaissance plane instantly turned into debris, causing the surrounding birds to coo and flap their wings and accelerate away from the hunting scene in their eyes.

"What is this?" Hai Youxing muttered to herself in confusion. Just now, an unknown red light spot appeared in the detection system. She thought it was because she was dazzled. When she raised her head, she saw a flock of birds flying above her head. Her sharp vision Suddenly I saw two reconnaissance planes in the flock.She immediately fired bursts from her secondary guns.

However, there was another reconnaissance plane that escaped the gunfire, hovered above Haiyouxing for a while, and then quickly flew towards the west.

In the west!
Haiyouxing immediately realized the location of Lexington and others. She spread her arms and wanted to follow the reconnaissance plane to find their location.

Until now, in her reconnaissance system, there was still no response from any sea soul within a radius of 60 nautical miles.

This reconnaissance plane came from 60 nautical miles away!

This was a reconnaissance aircraft formation from Lexington. The moment one of the reconnaissance aircraft was shot down, Lexington notified Saratoga, and the landing gear of the two carrier-based aircraft began to quickly replace the aircraft on the deck. Fuel replenishment and bomb loading of carrier-based aircraft. Ten minutes later, the first bombers flew off the sisters' deck.

It flew roaring towards the target sea area, while the second and third batch of bomber formations attacked the position from the north and south directions in order to correct the movement deviation after the exposed position of Haiyou Star.

Haiyouxing moved forward for 10 nautical miles, but there was still no trace of the Lexington sisters. At the same time, Lexington had moved sideways with her sister. She knew that the crash of the reconnaissance plane not only meant that she had discovered the sea... Youxing also means that Haiyouxing is aware of his position.

Hai Youxing is still accelerating. She knows that her previous position has been exposed, and the reconnaissance plane following her may also be a decoy. Therefore, in the situation where the enemy is in darkness and we are clear, the most appropriate measure should be to quickly kill the enemy in front of her. reconnaissance aircraft, and then maneuver to avoid possible attacks.

However, after advancing another 10 nautical miles, Haiyouxing gradually slowed down.The purpose of Gibran's exercise was not to win, but to test the abilities of these two different sea souls who had shined in Mirage Tide.

If both sides are avoiding, it is likely that by dark, neither side may have found the other's position.

Although Haiyouxing understood her mission, Poseidon's pride did not allow her to make any moves. She returned to normal speed and headed towards the possible location of Lexington.

As expected, the reconnaissance plane crashed into the sea after running out of fuel, but there was still no trace of the sea soul in her reconnaissance range.At the same time, a red light spot appeared in her mind. This was the message fed back to her by the system.

Their first batch of carrier-based aircraft had quickly approached her, and the distance was only 20 nautical miles.

Haiyouxing began to use regular tactical evasion and adjusted his weapons to the most appropriate state.The scope of the exercise was limited. When this batch of carrier-based aircraft appeared, they had already approached the westernmost side of the designated area. Obviously, there were not many positions that these two sea souls could move to.

Haiyouxing made a quick decision and leaped in one direction at full speed.At the same time, she was also carefully observing the carrier-based aircraft that appeared in her sight.They are completely different from the flying rangers of Haimanxing and Haijixing. They have two wings, just like a sea eagle that can't flap its wings and can only glide.

What they carry on their bellies may be their main means of attack.

If there was only one, Hai Youxing was completely confident that she could avoid the attack through her own dodge... However, coming towards her were nearly twenty dive bombers. This was not a saturation attack that could be avoided. Basically, at the moment of attack, the sea area near you will be covered with bombs.

But is it really efficient to drop bombs horizontally like this?
Haiyouxing was very interested in this method of attack, and a smile appeared on her lips.

What a lot of fun!
