Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 719 The Attack Begins

As the fourteen o'clock bell rang, the attack horn came.

The aircraft carriers, which had been waiting in the combat waters for a long time, released their carrier-based aircraft one after another.The well-maintained aircraft flew toward the mirage-occupied area like an arrow shot from a fully drawn bowstring.

The first to attack is of course the aircraft carrier fleet.In Huang Jiang's tactics, the high-speed fleet's interspersed operations must ensure that there is no strong resistance in the sea area.Today, mirage activities near Tea Island and other resource islands are still too frequent, and the assault fleet needs to wait until the aircraft carriers clear them out before dispatching.

And purging does not mean that there are no enemies on the sea.Even if the aircraft carriers use up all the aluminum this time, they cannot guarantee that there will be no enemies on the sea.However, if it is really used up, then the mirages in these areas will have been almost eliminated.

Today is a great day for flying.Not to mention clouds in the sky, there is not much formed water vapor. The blazing sun emits scorching light, making people feel a kind of reflected heat that is unique to the sea.The aircraft carriers have long been accustomed to the strong sunlight reflected from the sea surface.The sun is always stronger than the storm.

Considering the postponement of the storm season today, this sunny day may last for quite a while.Jialan had to take this large resource island into her pocket before the storm season came. She didn't want to occupy it all, but Baoyuan still had to be completed.

The aircraft carriers were divided into four fleets and launched their first bombers at different locations in the Violet Sea.In front of the bombers, the reconnaissance aircraft group is broadcasting live signs of mirage activity on the side of the westerly drift today for the aircraft carriers.

Chicheng took Dafeng, Enterprise and others to stand on the ruins of Qiangwei Island, and beside them was a brave human infrastructure team who was building a brand new camp for them.At this time, the gunpowder smoke on Qiangwei Island has not completely dissipated, and some remaining corpses of mirages are still exuding a purple mist that makes people stay away.But these strategic construction teams have all received the most rigorous professional training. Facing this environment, they all work with a relaxed face.

And compared to the ordinary people around them, the ship girls are naturally more relaxed.The successful capture of Rose Island was the first victory in this battle, and it also gave the Akagi fleet a better take-off area than other aircraft carrier fleets.This is closer to the island of Mirage.The only thing worth worrying about is Mirage's counterattack.

"You guys are so crazy." Veneto complained, "In such a short period of time, the entire earth was almost turned upside down."

The reason why Veneto is here is because according to the plan, the Tirpitz fleet will set off from here, cross Ruiyun Island and Xiacao Island, and capture Shinan Island or Bian Island. These two islands are two ordinary islands. The island is located on the edge of the former Edelweiss Territory, and it was also the first two islands captured by Mirage.

At this time, the mirage activities in the sea near Ruiyun Island were still very frequent. Tirpitz would definitely be entangled by mirages when he led the team, so the group temporarily followed the Akagi fleet and followed. They came to Rose Island.

In the distance, Tirpitz was sitting leisurely on the ruins reading cartoons, while Bismarck and Richelieu were preparing afternoon tea.Hu Teng is tinkering with Prince Eugen.

"It's been too long since I've fought against the mirage troops with all my strength. I've gone a little overboard." Saratoga stuck out her tongue and said, "After all, attacking the mirage mother body with all your strength is different from attacking ordinary mirages with all your strength."

Veneto glanced at the planes in the sky and shivered. Veneto had not fought against aircraft carriers before, so of course he knew the power of aircraft carriers.

You know, she herself was one of the victims of Swordfish.This time it was originally scheduled to depart from Leia Island, but Tirpitz and others unanimously opposed it, and finally decided to set off from Rose Island.

Nonsense, look at the members of Tirpitz's fleet, Tirpitz, Bismarck, Veneto, and Richelieu. Except for Hutten and Prince Eugen, who has not been taken care of by the Royal Navy Air Force? It is not for you to go there. They feel uncomfortable. Everyone is usually happy to get along with each other, but when carrier-based aircraft take off in groups, they still have a certain psychological shadow.

"How soon can we dispatch?" Veneto asked a very concerned question.

In this battle, the aircraft carriers were relatively more comfortable.The risks taken by high-speed battleships are very huge. The first batch of ship girls to rush in have no follow-up supplies, so almost all of them have full-level reserve ammunition.However, Huangjiang will never allow its own ship girls to risk their lives, so the break-in ship girls have another task, which is to open up a channel for supply through enemy-occupied areas.

At least it is a channel that can allow the Sea Soul Mothership to pass smoothly.This requirement is very high and requires active cooperation from the aircraft carriers.

While controlling the carrier-based aircraft to observe the situation on the sea, Saratoga replied: "It will take at least three days before we can drive most of the mirages back to their base."

"So long?" Veneto said subconsciously.

Saratoga was also very helpless: "We don't have a night attack, so the mirage is very likely to come out at dusk. Three days is the most conservative estimate. If we really want to stabilize, we have to wait at least half a month."

"That won't work. Half a month is enough for the Lan family's sea souls to get around." Veneto quickly shook his head.

"Don't be so nervous, Veneto." Lexington came over and handed her a cup of coffee.

Veneto smiled confidently: "These opponents are not enough to make me nervous. If we capture the two islands at the back, I am afraid we will be attacked from the front and back by mirages, right? I'm really looking forward to it."

Lexington said: "Don't worry, at least there is no mirage on Tea Island who has enough power to attack your occupied island."

“There’s enough aluminum, it just makes a difference,” Veneto said in admiration.

Veneto understands this deeply. Didn't she just stay in the port because the resources were scarce?

On the side, Saratoga's expression changed slightly, and then quickly turned into a smile: "Ah, we encountered a mirage plane."

"It should be the plane from Tea Island." Lexington said calmly, "That's where the main force of the 'Flying Fish' is. Don't underestimate the enemy."

"Don't worry." Saratoga said, "I'm not the kind of person who won't fight normally after being abused for a long time."

At the same time, the Essex fleet located on Sesame Island also launched its carrier-based aircraft after arriving at the target sea area. After getting a little familiar with the sky of the blue world, they controlled the carrier-based aircraft group and headed towards it in an orderly manner. Fly to the waters of Kapok Island.In the waters of Laiya Island, Guanghui led his sisters and just arrived at the target sea area. In order to pay attention to his naughty sisters on the way, Guanghui spent a lot of effort and finally used the name of commander to suppress them.

"Hurry up and take off, don't let Feilong, Canglong and the others get ahead of you!"

On Snakeberry Island, a total of five ship girls of the Feilong fleet: Feilong, Soryu, Shokaku, Zuikaku and Kaga also released their planes at the same time.

"The mission is so urgent..." the white-haired aircraft carrier complained, "I don't even have time to go to Akagi for a drink."
