Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 300 There’s still one ship left between me and my true love 81
Unlike the bombing that went on smoothly over there, Hood led the main fleet of the Royal Navy and broke into the arms of the main force of Malan Island who came out for a stroll not long after they came out of the fog.

This main force of Malan Island, led by three "squids", came from the northeast, where Violet Island is located.

Hood was caught off guard. The existing intelligence never reported that any troops from the mirage on Malan Island were sent to Violet Island.

What's more, this is an ordinary mirage main force composed of three "squids" and four "cods", which is second only to the formation of the mirage captain.

But immediately, Hood reacted, and the battleships and battlecruisers behind him reacted quickly, and the main gun was quickly raised.

boom!
Rodney was the first to fire. Her shells quickly cut through the sky, drawing a perfect parabola in the fog that had not completely dissipated.

The shell landed in the sea about 700 meters away from the mirage troops, and several water columns rose.

Subsequently, Nelson, the Prince of Wales, the Vanguard, and the Lion opened fire one after another, and the roar of the cannonballs formed a chaotic and roaring concerto on the early morning sea.

The water column rose one by one, and began to slowly approach the location of the mirage troops.

The mirages reacted quickly, and they began to sail rapidly from west to east. While avoiding the attacks of the ship girls, they began to raise their main guns to counterattack Hood's troops.

Hood and Reputation were the last to fire.

Reputation raised her hand very quickly, and her cannonball landed accurately in front of the Mirage troop flagship. The shell and the water column exploded by the shell caused the speed of the "squid" to drop sharply.Reputation could not give it any chance to adjust its course. Several main guns started firing in unison, and together with Hood's artillery fire, they blocked the mirage's escape direction from the front.

No matter how powerful this mirage force is, Hood and the others cannot let them escape.Once the news of Jialan's troops breaking into the Malan Sea was conveyed, the sneak attack plan would be completely ruined, which was completely unacceptable to Hood.

She did not know the location of the mirage on Malan Island, and it was impossible to call for aircraft carrier support and learn about the location of the mirage on Malan Island through aerial reconnaissance.

Before the official battle, Hood did not dare to easily expose his fleet to the mirage of Malan Island. This was an extremely dangerous thing.

Reputation and Hood's artillery shells completely blocked the retreat of this mirage force.

They seemed to have not given up the idea of ​​​​escape, but the number of shells fired at Hood and the others had obviously increased.

This mirage force is all composed of ordinary mirages, but the ship girls are not slacking off at all. They have been fighting in the deep sea all year round. They know that any ordinary-looking deep sea battle array may give them a medium-breaking or even a large-breaking attack. , Moreover, it is still on this sea area where the battle is launched.

The girls of the Royal Navy did not relax their vigilance against these mirage shells. They would rather slow down their shelling speed and avoid these desperate counterattacks from the mirage as much as possible.

Rodney's shell fell, and a "cod" instantly turned into a fireball.

But her face was very calm. As a frequent visitor of the killing team, she knew very well that before meeting the real Dean Shenhai, no matter how brilliant the battle was, there was nothing to brag about. The only thing to keep in mind is the outstanding performance in the final battle.

Rodney could no longer make any waves about the results before the end, let alone bullying a few ordinary mirages.

Cannonball coefficient dropped.

Twenty minutes later, this newly emerged mirage army has become a brand new decoration on this sea area.

The sun gradually showed its head, and the purple mist slowly rose from the mirage's body, forming a mark as obvious as straw in the middle of the field on this empty sea.

Hood knew that he was not far away from being exposed.The patrols on Malan Island and even Violet Island will definitely discover this rising pillar of purple mist.Such an obvious sign will definitely make them realize that their compatriots are under attack, and within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, the only one that can attack the Malan Sea is Wutou Island in the Jialan Sea!

Hood did not neglect at all, and began to accelerate with the fleet.

They had to rush into the Malan sea quickly before the mirages could react.

Fortunately, compared to Iliao Island, which is closer to Violet Island, Malan Island is quite far away from Violet Island. Even if the mirage over there discovers or learns about the situation on this side, it will still take a long time to get there. A long time, this period of time is enough for the Royal Navy fleet, which is in full condition and has strong firepower, to clean up and down Malan Island!

At the same time, U47 has led the wolf pack into this sea area and began to hunt down the patrol troops of Malan Island. The big mackerel has entered the waters of Iliao Island with archer fish and surgeonfish. Anyone who plans to hinder the aircraft carrier's attack The mirages are their hunting targets.

At 10:[-] a.m., [-] minutes after the aircraft carriers began to drop the first bomb attack, Maran Island entered the range of the Royal Navy.

The first thing that came into Hood's sight was a group of mirages staying on the west coast of Malan Island.

Because of the long distance, Hood could not identify the specific type of mirage, but through the outline, he could vaguely tell that there was no mirage captain among the enemies he was facing head-on.

Time was running out, and Hood quickly raised the battle flag.

boom!
A salvo.

Most of the shells landed on the coast, and the rising water column instantly covered the entire coast with mirages.

Between the water pillars, a few streaks of khaki smoke appeared vaguely. It was the cannonballs from the ship's mother that landed on Malan Island.

The first salvo did not produce gratifying results.

But the ship girls did not panic at all, which is very common in naval battles.

They began to skillfully adjust the angle of the muzzle.The impact points of the artillery shells became more and more concentrated, gradually moving towards the Mirage troops.

After experiencing the initial panic, the mirages began to gather at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the middle, were there artillery shells coming from the direction of Malan Island.

Judging from the water column exploded by the cannonball, the mirage of the opponent's counterattack was at least "tuna" level or above.

Hood did not panic at all because Mirage began to organize a counterattack. She began to use cannonballs to reduce the range of Mirage's activities bit by bit.

At this time, with a huge roar, the reputation came to the fore.

The precise shell directly took the life of a "cod", and the aftermath of the explosion instantly caused the two surrounding "hairtails" to lose their ability to fight.And the reputation was so ruthless that the ruthless cannonballs began to accurately shoot at a "squid" who was planning to fight back against them.

After hitting five shells in a row, the reputation finally hit the "Squid".

The explosion of the ammunition depot was deafening.

Hood was delighted, patted Shengsheng's shoulder and shouted loudly:
"Well done to Reputation! Keep shooting! Let's get some blood!"
