Chapter 1627: 1628 No chance
Chapter 16271628 Don’t give a chance
Dorn's fleet was indeed not attacked, but they did not receive news from the elves or dwarf fleets in the first time. In fact, in order to avoid detection, they maintained radio silence, not knowing that their communications had been interfered with.
Because they were afraid that the Tang army would have some strange tricks, the Dornish fleet did not turn on its radar, so they just moved along the planned route without any reaction because the coalition fleet was attacked.
A scene that made people laugh or cry appeared like this: the Tang army was furiously attacking the fleets of elves and dwarves, while Dorne's fleet was cruising beside them as if nothing was wrong.
The coalition warships were sunk one after another, and more than a dozen warships were already on fire. The commander of the Elf Navy Fleet even ordered the destroyers that were fast enough and had targets small enough to break away from the fleet and escape on their own.
He could see that the Tang Army was focused on battleships and aircraft carriers, and seemed to have little interest in those small destroyers. If these destroyers are left to move with the fleet, they are likely to be sunk together, but if they are allowed to escape on their own, they may be able to escape a little.
Leaving these destroyers is actually of little use. The Tang army used missiles to attack, and the destroyers could not play any **** role at all.
Instead of wasting all these frigates here, it is better to let them leave quickly, so that more or less some incense can be left for the Yangmu Empire Navy.
After constantly using semaphores to contact the outer battleships, about two or three cruisers and three or four destroyers left the fleet and began to speed away in the opposite direction.
The whole process actually didn't take long, but when it was leaving the fleet, a cruiser was hit and paralyzed by an anti-ship missile from the Tang Army, and it stopped in place and emitted billowing smoke.
The remaining ships left the battlefield relatively smoothly, and the Tang Army did not cause any trouble to these destroyers and cruisers until the end.
It wasn't that the Tang army took the initiative to let go of these enemies who had no courage to fight, but that there were too many targets for them to control.
"Marshal! A new enemy fleet has been discovered. It is about 100 kilometers away from the elven dwarf fleet and heading due west..." In the bridge of the command ship of the Navy Marshal, an officer reported the latest discovery to Bernard. .
Bernard was stunned for a moment, then walked to the front of the chart, and sure enough, a new fleet had been marked at the corresponding position. He took a rough look at the position, and then ordered: "Don't worry about this fleet for now, just let the early warning aircraft keep an eye on the other side. If the other side takes off, notify me immediately."
“Yes!” The officer took the order and left.
Logically speaking, Bernard does not need to personally take part in this naval battle, and leaving it to Lu Qianshan is actually overkill. None of the enemy fleets on the Endless Sea can fight, and the technological gap between the two sides cannot be made up by numbers.
The navy and air force are both high-tech arms. The more high-tech arms are, the more they rely on technological advancement. When the gap is large enough, a warship can really wipe out a country's navy.
But Bernard was reluctant to give up the opportunity to personally command the fleet in combat. For him, such an opportunity may be used once at a time.
Seeing that there are no more important battles in the Endless Sea, as long as the Tang army goes south from the Ice Empire, naval battles will definitely be fought less often. Therefore, he insisted on personally commanding the naval battle and prepared to bury the last enemy with his own hands.
"Marshal! The news just came that the Elf fleet is launching carrier-based aircraft, and there are about 4 carrier-based aircraft heading towards our area." "Four?"
"Four! It seems that they are not sure of our approximate location and hope that their carrier-based aircraft can find us..." The officer guessed a possibility.
From the opponent's perspective, there is really only one possibility: due to electromagnetic interference, the opponent does not know where the enemy is, so he does not have the courage to assemble the aircraft and rush to a general location.
Naval aviation tactics during World War II have begun to mature, but without the support of reconnaissance intelligence methods, it is still very troublesome for carrier-based aircraft to search for enemy fleets.
The two sides may not be able to find anything even if they are dozens of kilometers apart. Sometimes, even if they do find it, they cannot confirm the size of the enemy's fleet, or some inaccurate information may be sent back.
For example, problems such as finding no enemy aircraft carrier or seeing a few battleships. During World War II, intelligence transmission errors often occurred, which caused many famous generals to fail.
But now the Tang Army does not need to worry about these problems at all. Countless detection methods can determine the location of the enemy fleet, and even the size of the battleship can be roughly judged.
Similarly, in combat, early warning aircraft can accurately provide early warning and dispatch fighter units to intercept targets... If this still causes problems, then the commanders of the Tang Army can commit suicide to apologize.
“Let the fighter jets rush to intercept. Since there is electronic interference anyway, we don’t have to worry about the other party sending the message back.” Bernard gave the decisive order and let the fighter unit also gain some military glory.
He really wasn't worried that shooting down the enemy would allow the opponent to roughly judge the position of his own fleet, because even if they were playing a clear card, the Tang Army's fleet was not afraid of those artillery battleships at all.
Even if the elves and dwarves went crazy and tried their best to close the distance and fight back, they would not be able to break through the **** network composed of the Tang Army's destroyers and cruisers, let alone deal with the carrier-based aircraft overhead.
"In addition, the third batch of attack aircraft units set off on time..." After arranging manpower to deal with the four Elf carrier-based aircraft that may approach the Tang Army's fleet, Bernard insisted that his third wave of attacks proceed on time.
At almost the same moment, a battleship of the dwarf fleet began to roll seriously due to too much water.
Although battleships look rough and fleshy, in fact they are almost no different from running naked when attacked by anti-ship missiles.
In order to carry heavy armor and keep thousands of tons of steel floating on the water, battleships have a large number of buoyancy zones without any armor protection. Once these areas are hit, they can easily cause large amounts of water intrusion.
In addition, the armor on the battleship does not have any blessings such as composite materials, and it is basically the level of protection of homogeneous steel.
Taking the Yamato battleship as an example, its main armor belt defense level is about 460 mm thick, which is about the same thickness as the protection level of a modern main battle tank.
