Chapter 240
Chapter 240
Even at night, the light of gunfire flashed across the sea from time to time.
After three hours of observation, Lexington finally figured out the number of warships in the battle.
Shipgirls United invested: 400 ships.
Navy invested: 700 ships.
Compared with the Shipgirls United, the Navy is more afraid of night battles, because their shipgirls are not as well trained as the Shipgirls United, and there will be more uncertain factors at night.
They are preparing to slowly consume the Shipgirls United, rather than sending all their shipgirls at once.
After all, even if the shipgirls on the front line are solved, they will be powerless to follow up with the subsequent support of the Shipgirls United.
It seems that the tentative battle between the two sides is not too intense.
Vian frowned.
"Xiaowei, we are already near the battle zone. Do we need to enter the battlefield directly?"
Xuefeng's voice sounded in Vian's mind.
"Sure, be careful."
"Got it~"
After listening to Vian's instructions, Xuefeng's mouth corners slightly raised.
In the range of her radar scanning, there were densely packed red dots, not only the navy's warships but also the ship girl alliance.
Through the reconnaissance data obtained from Lexington, she made a simple distinction between the enemy and our warships.
Prepare for the next battle.
On the other side, Vian called Saratoga and Lexington together.
Increased the upper limit of the mind core for each of them by 1W, and pulled the number of simultaneous takeoffs to the maximum.
With the advantage of radar, Vian's fleet is not afraid of night battles at all.
"Madam, while ensuring reconnaissance, use fighter jets to ensure the safety of Yukikaze and the others in the sky. The same goes for Gaga. Don't use bombers for the time being."
"One person can take off 50 fighter jets."
"Okay."
Lexington did not doubt Vian's order.
Just like the strength of his fleet's aircraft carrier before the assessment, other admirals did not know, and could only be beaten in the real showdown.
How different is the navy now from those admirals? How much do they know about me?
Do they know that Lexington and Saratoga have been improved again?
Since he chose to support the ship girl here, he must also choose a fighting method that maximizes his benefits.
When the strength of the aircraft carrier is fully demonstrated, it must be a fatal blow.
So now facing the main force of the navy in Yukikaze and the other two destroyers.
Use the same trick again.
"Clemenceau! The opponent's main battleship is handed over to you! I'll take Shimakaze and the others."
Xuefeng's words dissipated in the wind as the battleship went away.
"Destroyer squad! Let's go!"
"Oh! Oh! Shimakaze can show off his skills again!"
"This time I must work hard to become stronger."
Led by Xuefeng, the two small destroyers sailed in the dark, with sonar and radar scanning at the maximum.
Finally, 4-5 nautical miles away from the naval fleet, Xuefeng led the squad to stop.
"Let's fire here, aiming at the location of the radar signal to fire torpedoes."
"Is it too far? In this case, we may hit fewer warships."
Shimakaze asked doubtfully.
"That's good. After hitting the enemy, they will definitely send people to keep an eye on us. This distance is our best engagement distance."
"We can leave the warships that we can't beat, and we can fight with stronger firepower than them if we can beat them."
Xuefeng shook his head.
"Okay."
After answering, Shimakaze had already fired his first round of torpedoes, and Xuefeng and Kogan followed.
And on Kogan's warship, there was also Kongxiang who silently observed the fighting style of Xuefeng and the others.
After all, she will be a member of the destroyer squadron in the future.
A torpedo with a speed of 72 knots may only take three minutes to hit the nearest enemy from their position.
But if the fastest warship of the navy is to catch up, it will take 10 minutes.
A round of torpedoes can be fired in 20 seconds. How many can they fire in three minutes?
The answer is more than 500, and the ammunition consumed is 250 units.
Like other ship girls, the Eskimos obeyed the command of the carrier-based aircraft near them and fought together with the ship girls.
Originally, she thought that this was a night with no intense fighting like the previous few days.
But just now, she suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with her sonar.
As a destroyer, the lead is the navy
The mission assigned to her.
For this reason, even though she was a cannon fodder that could be sacrificed, she had a sonar since she was built, which gave her a slightly better arrangement than other cannon fodder.
Her battleship was located in the center of the fleet, so she didn't have to be the first to be sacrificed, but she also took on the anti-submarine mission of others near her battleship.
She had been through dozens of battles, big and small, since she was built.
She had never seen a situation like this before.
Her sonar told her that more than 100 torpedoes were approaching their fleet quickly, and the number was increasing as time went on.
Now it has increased to 200, and what made her doubt herself the most was.
The direction of these torpedoes was to the right rear of their fleet. Did the other battleships responsible for reconnaissance have no food?
A large number of enemies launched a surprise attack on them from the right rear?
So after being stunned, she could only raise the alarm of her battleship as quickly as she could, and use her last time to report to the carrier-based aircraft following her.
"There are a lot of torpedoes coming from the right rear, the number of enemies is unknown, and it is estimated to be more than 30!"
After she said that, she could already feel the vibration from her warship.
The torpedo opened a hole in her warship.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, the torpedoes hit the other warships around her that had no time to evade.
They were pierced through fiercely.
It can't be blamed that she didn't remind in time, just because when her sonar found the torpedo, the distance was only 600 meters.
A torpedo with a speed of 72 knots only takes 16 seconds to travel a distance of 600 meters.
So even in the navy fleet, the opposite ship girls and the joint ship girls can see a strange scene.
Late at night, the sea in the navy fleet area is illuminated by fire from time to time.
Because a large number of warships were directly broken by torpedoes, which caused other damage to the warships.
Fire is very normal.
As the culprits of this tragedy, they watched the naval fleet panic but did not come to chase them.
"Xuefeng, are we going to leave?"
"No, keep firing torpedoes, it seems that we overestimated them."
Xuefeng seriously doubted the combat quality of the naval fleet, no.
Even the admirals who were assessed by the joint department could organize the team to counterattack in the first time.
What she observed was that the naval fleet was still stunned in place and continued to be struck by lightning.
But they did not think that it was because they had too many torpedoes.
