Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 776 Doubt
The "Flying Fish" force is worthy of the absolute strength that the "Anglefish" has spent so much effort to build.Even when the flagship "Guillemot" was suddenly destroyed, they still carried out active defense in an orderly manner.

"Guillemot" understood that if the stalemate continued like this, his old life would definitely be lost here. In addition, "Flying Fish" had the so-called unquestionable mission of harassing Mai Xianweng Island, so after being attacked by the wasp's counterattack, After the big defeat, "Haijiu" chose to retreat very conscientiously.

The Hornet is also a battle-hardened aircraft carrier. Seeing the posture of the mirage on the opposite side, he guessed that they wanted to retreat.

How can this be tolerated!
You can come and leave the waters of Jialan Territory whenever you want?

The aircraft carriers immediately began a more violent attack.However, the mirage was determined to retreat, and a group of mirages protected the broken "Guillemot" and fled towards the outer sea.The wasp gritted its teeth, this was a feat in hand!

Unfortunately, the range of aircraft carrier-based aircraft is limited. After sinking several Mirages, Wasp could only watch the "Guillemot" troops withdraw from the Mai Xian Weng waters.

"Looks like it's over?" Wichita shot down the last batch of Mirage planes and asked cautiously when he saw the wasps gnashing their teeth.

"Can't you be braver? What's the point of running away after a big break!" The wasp stamped its feet, and the deck behind it kept flapping like a wasp.

"The retreat was too decisive." Zeppelin also shook his head helplessly, "The opponent had more people than us. Although those fighter jets looked like novices, they were so numerous that we still failed to gain air supremacy. I believe Nong stole a few waves of machines."

Shinano wiped his deck, and the damage control team began to repair the damage caused by the Mirage aircraft. The flying bombing department of the "Flying Fish" unit was worthy of being the long-famous Mirage elite unit. In this situation, it was actually able to carry out an attack. It was a precise bombing, but it was a pity that they miscalculated the opponent. The Shinano battleship's body was still able to withstand a few aerial bombs, not to mention that she had the blessing of skills.

Hearing Zeppelin's words, Shinano scratched his head and said with a smile: "They are all blocking your bombers at high altitude, and no one cares about my torpedo planes."

"How's your injury?" Beyan was lucky enough not to be hit by concentrated fire in this battle. Apart from being shaken by a near-missed bomb, he didn't receive any attacks. "I see you were just bombed. The ship's suit was on fire."

Béarn asked about the wasp.The injury that Wasp suffered from "Guilin" was not minor, and it wasn't because of how supermodel "Guilin's" attack was. The main reason was that Wasp's body was already brittle. Even if it was blown up like this, although it wouldn't break, it would still hurt. Not too far off.

"Damage control is in effect, and the situation is under control." Huang Weng looked at the damage control team on the ship carrying bubble guns to extinguish the fire. "Fortunately, only one aerial bomb was hit, otherwise it would have been miserable in the next few days. ”

"The one who suffered the most was Shinano, right?" Imperial said softly.

Shinano said helplessly: "I don't know why. My taunting skill should not be triggered when teaming up with the aircraft carrier, but those guys still followed me."

"If it's not that your skills are buggy, it's because you are inherently sarcastic." Beyan said, and gave a very appropriate example, "such as fantasy."

"We are also a French ship girl, is it really okay for you to blackmail her like this?" Tianying complained softly next to her.

"Hmph! That guy is Richelieu's licking dog. He doesn't give me any face. Why should I save face for her." Béarn put his arms around his shoulders and said arrogantly.

"I finally confirmed something." Portland, who was watching the show, said to Wichita.

"What?" Wichita asked curiously.

"That means the French ship girl is either a Richelieu chef, or a distorted Richelieu chef." Portland clapped his hands lightly. "You just found out." Northampton said, "I knew it when Richet stayed with us to reform."

In any case, the encounter finally came to an end.Only when "Haijiu" led the troops towards the outer sea, Huang Jiang received the news.

"How is it over there? Do you need support?" This battle was completely unexpected. Before that, although it was speculated that a detachment of the "Flying Fish" force was missing, Jialan still focused its defense on the island. , I didn’t expect that the Hornet Fleet would encounter that team at sea.

"The enemy has retreated, and our losses are not great." Wasp answered truthfully.

"That's good." Huang Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. It's no wonder that in the event of an unexpected incident, the hornet directly sent the situation to the nearby fleet. Huang Jiang was the last to get the news. At the same time, several nearby fleets The fleet that received the news also sent inquiries, and the Hornets answered them patiently.

"Is the injury okay?" Huang Jiang asked, "There is no repair equipment in the buffer zone yet. If there is damage such as medium-sized or large damage that cannot be repaired by the damage control itself, why don't we go back to Leyah Island to repair it?"

"Damage control can still be repaired." Wasp glanced at his own ship equipment and said, "Don't worry about this. It's just that in this battle, in order to suppress the enemy, we forced the attack without air superiority, which cost a lot of money. A lot of aluminum."

"That's not a problem." Huang Jiang thought for a moment. The carrier-based aircraft equipped by the Hornets and the others are not large aluminum consumers like the B-25, and they are not even Feilong. "As for aluminum resources, Kapok Island and Jingan Island have already invested Production has been completed, and aluminum smelters on Zhulan Island and Bauhinia Island are also under construction. Soon, you will not need to worry about aluminum resources."

The flying dragon that Huang Jiang was thinking of was not the aircraft carrier flying dragon, but the bomber flying dragon.In the port area, there are many aircraft with the same name as the ship girl, such as the bomber [Firefly] and the torpedo aircraft [Macker].

Huang Jiang looked at the map and continued: "Next, the mirage is likely to continue to attack nearby islands, and it may be hard for you. Akagi and the others are looking for the 'Flying Fish' troops, so they may not be able to take this into consideration."

"Leave this to us." Wasp replied.

Huang Jiang smiled when he saw the hornet's reply and looked at the map on the wall again.

The smile on his face gradually disappeared.

The "Flying Fish" troops, whether they are the headquarters or the detachment, do not look like they are trying to capture an island based on their encounters. Their behavior is more like harassment.

Judging from several battles, the strength of the "Flying Fish" force should not be underestimated. Perhaps a single unit cannot match the aircraft carrier, but the numerical advantage still makes up for the gap in strength. In the previous air battle on Heather Island, the Akagi fleet Unable to seize air superiority, they could only watch the "Flying Fish" bomb Lafite.Although the subsequent scene was humorous in the eyes of those familiar with the matter, it is undeniable that this air battle exposed the fact that a single aircraft carrier formation of six aircraft carriers could not deal with an entire "Flying Fish" force.

Apparently, the illusion was shattered.

Huang Jiang knocked on the table and said to Rodney beside him:

"Let Guanghui and the others also set off."
