Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 736 Okay, you are already surrounded by 18 of me.

Because it is close to Tea Island, as an ordinary island on Huangyang Island, Mirage's defensive strength is not weak.In comparison, the other shore island is more like an ordinary island deployed by mirage, similar to the Wutou Island once occupied by mirage. Tirpitz led the fleet to occupy it without spending too much energy.

"Camping, camping." Tirpitz happily took out a complete set of camping equipment.

"When did you get these gadgets?" Bismarck really didn't expect that Tirpitz would have such equipment that only people who often go out have.

Bei Zhai was also a little embarrassed, scratching his head and said: "When I first saw it, it looked so good that I couldn't help but want to go camping, so I bought a set, but I haven't used it yet."

Bismarck took a look... not only were they not used, some of the items had not even been opened, and there was a layer of dust on them.

"Don't worry about these details! Hum, you have no reason to nag me this time, I'm well prepared." Tirpitz said happily with his hands on his hips.

Bismarck sighed: "If you have this spirit, use it against the enemy as soon as possible."

As Bismarck spoke, he sent the news that Bian'an Island had been occupied to Huang Jiang.

"In this case, our mission is half completed." Richelieu rubbed her shoulders. For her, this little journey is nothing. It is just to deal with the mirage on Huangyang Island in the middle. He was a little exhausted. Mirage's strength was not strong, but his mentality was torturing.

"The next step is the big one." Hu Teng said seriously. "It is easy to say that attacking the enemy's supply system, but it is not easy to do. If you are a little unlucky, you may encounter the enemy's main force. It will be consumed several times. , our resources can’t sustain it.”

"Then it depends on the news on the other side of the Violet Sea." Veneto looked indifferent. She didn't care about future enemies. The main victory was that they would not be in any danger. "Next, they should face the enemy. The resource belt is under attack."

"It's not that fast. We just have to wait until the Mirage resources in the resource belt are almost consumed." Bismarck estimated, "The best time should be after we intercept two or three batches of Mirage supplies. But in fact, We may encounter Mirage’s convoy during the second batch.”

Richelieu expressed his own opinion: "I don't think we can wait for the second batch. The situation at hand is very tense. We must eat up part of the resource island in the shortest possible time, especially the aluminum ore island, so After intercepting the first batch of resources, the Violet Sea side will take action."

Prince Eugen prepared a hot drink and said, "Are we going to send more troops again?"

"Even if new ship girls are summoned, we will still be the main force in attacking the enemy." Veneto saw clearly, "Except for the aircraft carrier, there are also light carriers and armored carriers that have not all been summoned. In fact, the battleships and battlecruisers The main force here has basically arrived.”

"According to the next plan, the destroyers and light cruisers will break through." Bismarck said, "They will take over from us and continue to control the island. We will start assaulting the islands in the resource belt."

As Bismarck had guessed, not long after their battle report went up, Huang Jiang issued an order to hold on to the island and wait for the destroyer fleet to come and take over. If conditions permit, attack other mirage islands in the buffer zone. Provide more space for this newly opened enclave.

"Somewhat risky," Bismarck commented. "But you are confident enough." Veneto said with a smile while holding the coffee, "But if you think about it carefully, the route of the destroyers is quite safe. They are escorted by aircraft carriers in the first half and we are escorted in the second half."

"The premise is that the aircraft carrier's aluminum is enough to support them in continuing to suppress the mirage on the island." Richelieu couldn't help but worry, in her impression, aircraft carriers are prone to squandering huge sums of money (especially the B-25 ).

"You've never seen them frustrated and using comets all day long." Bei Zhai chuckled and said, "Our commander, when you buckle, you really buckle."

"That's called economy." Bismarck patted Tirpitz gently on the head.

Then, she took the hot cocoa from Eugen: "At least the Sea Soul Mothership is on the way, that's for sure. In this case, we should be more careful."

"It seems that no matter which world it is, the crew members are the bravest human beings." Richelieu can guarantee that as long as the Violet Sea Soul Mothership passes through the resource belt and reaches the other shore island, it will become an important event in the history of the entire Blue Federation. One stroke of wisdom set a precedent for the entire human race.

This was the first time in the battle against the mirage that a human had actually passed through the mirage's occupied area and came to fight behind the enemy's rear.

In fact, Huang Jiang still cares more about the safety of the destroyers than the ship girls imagined.In order to ensure that the destroyers could successfully pass through the resource island and reach the rear where the Mirage's defense was relatively weak, the West Virginia Fleet finally dispatched.After several days of bombing, the air superiority in the naval battle was finally brought into full play. Although the Mirages had no troops, they could not deploy effectively. If they were dispatched during the day, they would be bombed by bombers. However, if they were dispatched at night, they could avoid this. , but the aircraft carriers have never relaxed their patrols on the sea. If they are discovered, they will fall into the embarrassment of having no support at the front and rear and their own fighter groups are all rubbish. Being discovered means being annihilated by the aircraft carrier, which was the last time "Barracuda" " had better luck. They were annihilated by Tirpitz's fleet before the aircraft carrier discovered them.

The West Virginia Fleet set out from Anzu Island and effortlessly occupied Rose Island, which had been ravaged by the Peanut Fleet and Akagi Fleet. Then, using Rose Island as a starting point, it headed east to attack Ruiyun Island.Their speed is really not fast, after all, they are all iron kings, and they don't have the beautiful and durable long legs of the cutting-edge battleships.

But under the cover of the aircraft carriers, the advancement speed of the Sif fleet was not too slow.When Tirpitz's fleet captured Bian'an Island, they also almost solved the mirage on Ruiyun Island.

Tea Island, which is separated from it, also tried to struggle after receiving the signal for help from Ruiyun Island, and sent a considerable number of reinforcements. "Puffin" also knew very well that the few Jialan troops that broke into the resource belt The fleet has most likely cut off its own supply line, and now Rose Island has fallen. If Ruiyun Island is captured again, then there will be a very safe passage for Jialan from the Violet Sea to the buffer zone.

If Ruiyun Island is lost, Xiacao Island to the north may not be able to support it for long. Besides, the three islands of Qiangwei, Ruiyun, and Xiacao are all iron ore islands.

Unfortunately, Cha Dao's struggle did not work. Half of the mirages were sunk by bombers on the way to break through. Before the remaining lucky ones had time to breathe, they were destroyed by the Sif fleet that had occupied most of Ruiyun Island. A head-on attack, and a few hits from the Wichita fleet on the side.

"Damn it! Where did Jialan get so much aluminum!" "Puffin" said with a twisted expression. The escort fighter jets sent by her troops were all wiped out as expected.

This time it was not bad, at least five or six aircraft were shot down. Of course, it is not known how many of them fell into the sea due to diving errors.

With the fall of Ruiyun, Xiacao Island was suddenly sandwiched between Lan'en Territory and Jialan, becoming an isolated island. Unfortunately, the resource belt islands south of Ruiyun were also semi-surrounded by Jialan. Although there are only three fleets on the east wall of the encirclement, there are only 18 people in total.
