I built an armada.

Chapter 674: The arrival of the Vulture aircraft carrier, the coalition forces of the two countries have been formed
He knew very well that not only was his trip not in vain, but he also came to the right place.

He would not believe that the early warning aircraft that could fly in this airspace was not taken off from an aircraft carrier. This proved that they were not far from discovering the Vulture nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet.

Xie Zhenyu naturally followed Su Dingping's orders and flew the Dark Sword No. 1 reconnaissance plane over the Pacific Ocean to investigate the trace of the Eagle Tribe aircraft carrier. However, he did not expect that he would actually get something.

As for what the early warning aircraft looks like, Xie Zhenyu has not figured it out so far. Even though the Dark Sword No. 15 has a very advanced optoelectronic reconnaissance system, the other party is patrolling on the ground km below, so it is naturally difficult to see clearly.

Glancing at the radar screen, Xie Zhenyu discovered that he was 300 kilometers away from the early warning aircraft, in the southwest.

Having flown all the way here from the Navy Integrated Military Factory, he was naturally unaware of the news that the two sides had already gone to war. He had been conducting flight reconnaissance along the approximate route planned by Xiang Qian. It was very likely that this direction contained the navigation track of the Eagle Tribe's Vulture aircraft carrier fleet.

But he would never have dreamed that such an earth-shattering event would happen during the time when he was driving the Dark Sword One on a reconnaissance mission.

"Is this probably the Vulture aircraft carrier fleet that President Su mentioned?"

"But why is his sailing route wrong?"

After a while of reconnaissance, Xie Zhenyu hurriedly compared it with the designated flight route map prepared in advance. The more he compared, the more he felt that the sailing route of the aircraft carrier fleet was inconsistent with Su Dingping's prior inference.

No matter how you look at it, the Vulture aircraft carrier fleet was not heading towards the base of the Seventh Fleet of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, but towards another direction.

While thinking, he controlled the Dark Sword No. 1 to fly forward. Suddenly, he made up his mind to quickly change direction and pounced on the opponent following his trail.

Anyway, whether there are dates or not, just poke it a few times first.

"With this flight path, it's definitely not heading to the Donghuang tribe." After the comparison, Xie Zhenyu became more certain of his idea.

However, he currently had no idea where the other party was going, so he could only investigate first.

After changing direction, Dark Sword No. 1 followed the trail of the aircraft carrier fleet and quickly approached the other side.

Not long after, another two early warning aircraft appeared on the radar screen, and it was obvious that they had been captured.

At this time, Xie Zhenyu also discovered something very interesting. The Dark Sword No. 7 reconnaissance aircraft flew past from time to time about 8 to kilometers below.

Judging from the current situation, the other party obviously has not discovered the existence of Dark Sword No. 1.

Even so, he did not recklessly let the reconnaissance plane go deeper, but always maintained a distance of about 200 kilometers to ensure his own safety while also ensuring that more useful intelligence information could be collected.

He always kept in mind what Su Dingping had told him. The Dark Sword No. 2 had stealth capabilities that exceeded those of the U- reconnaissance aircraft, but not by much, so he still needed to act with caution.

Now he is not sure whether he can find the Vulture aircraft carrier fleet, so naturally he still needs to be extra cautious and careful. He is here for reconnaissance, not to alert the enemy.

If he were discovered, without any reinforcements in the vast ocean, the consequences would be very serious.

Even though several emergency plans had been prepared before the mission was carried out, and even the aircraft could fly to an altitude of 26km and successfully escape the war zone, the consequences were serious.

At the same time, in the vast Pacific Ocean near the eastern waters, the USS Vulture was sailing at full speed towards the waters of Haiyu Island under the protection of the escort fleet, without making any stops along the way.

In the main control room of the USS Condor aircraft carrier, Captain Douglas put down his coffee cup, picked up a document and began to read it carefully. His brows furrowed slightly from time to time, but his eyes were looking at the vast ocean.

Even though they were getting closer and closer to Haiyu Island according to the nautical chart markings, there was still no trace of land around them, but he was not panicked at all.

Of course, this was the first time he was ordered to come to the Dongzhou waters to carry out a mission. Before that, he had always been in the Europa waters.

Even so, he was not unfamiliar with this area of ​​water. He had done detailed work in this regard before setting off and was familiar with the various conditions of this area of ​​water, including ocean currents, water temperature, salinity of the sea water, etc. He knew them all.

He also learned from other captains who had been stationed in the Donghuang Tribe that there were special treatments for American soldiers stationed in the Donghuang Tribe, just like the existence of an emperor, enjoying extraterritoriality. Their lives were so comfortable that it was not an exaggeration to describe them as living a carefree life.

Besides, compared with other regions, the waters of Dongzhou are relatively peaceful, without much turmoil. Unless they take the initiative to provoke trouble, they will not encounter any provocations at all.

This is mainly because the Longxia tribe is now focused on development and has no ambition or desire to dominate the entire Blue Star. Unlike the White Bear Tribe in the European Sea Circle, there are many unstable factors in the central region, which requires them to frequently carry out some secret military operations to crack down on those militants. In turn, the militants will also launch attacks on them.

They must make relevant defense deployments, issue early warnings, and carry out necessary military deterrence and other tasks. In short, the tasks are heavy and keep them busy all the time.

After staying in these areas for a long time, they are under high mental stress every day. After a while, they will feel that they can't bear it anymore and naturally yearn for such a place that is like a retirement home.

So much so that when he learned that he was going to the Dongzhou waters to carry out a mission, he was extremely happy. Of course, he looked very calm on the surface and didn't feel anything at all.

It’s so nice to come here, where you are served like an emperor, and you can do whatever you want. It’s so comfortable.

Douglas should be happy about such a good job, but judging from his serious expression, he was not in a good mood, but rather a bit bad.

Originally, they were going to follow the previously planned route and go directly to the Donghuan Tribe Military Port for stationing, but they suddenly received an order from the headquarters to forcibly change course and go to the Haiyu Island waters to carry out combat missions.

Obviously, this is a naval battle that is about to break out with the Longxia Navy, and he needs to be prepared for this battle.

This made him very unhappy. He had originally thought of coming here to be a local emperor, to enjoy his retirement, to live comfortably every day, to relax himself, and not have to worry about the high-intensity war.

But who knew that a war would suddenly break out in the Dongzhou Sea, and it would be against the Longxia Navy! "Fuck!"

Douglas cursed in an unpleasant tone, then sighed, "Damn you bastard, I am destined to be a hard worker, doing all these dirty and tiring jobs."

Although he lamented, he did not let his guard down. Instead, he upgraded the fleet to the second-level combat readiness state and maintained alert to the surroundings.

Unlike Captain Willis of the USS Enterprise, he is a veteran who has been stationed in the central region for a long time and has rich combat experience. He is extremely sensitive to the dangers of war.

Willis is different. He has stayed in the comfort zone for too long, just like a person in a greenhouse. He looks down on those small countries that seem weak on the surface, and thus despises his opponents, which leads to his disastrous consequences.

Although the Longxia Navy has only been around for a short time, its combat capability should not be underestimated. It is not comparable to those small countries. Naturally, he attaches great importance to it and even feels that it is an opponent that should not be underestimated.

The intelligence material in his hand was sent by the headquarters. It recorded in detail the information of various types of warships of the Longxia Navy, as well as the actual situation of the naval battles that the Longxia Navy had participated in in recent years.

Among them are the most advanced 052-ton destroyers, main battleships such as 054D, frigates such as , and various types of missile speedboats.

Of course, the level of detail among the ships is also different. For example, the 052D, which appears more frequently, is more detailed, while there is not much data on the -ton destroyer.

In addition to these, there are also various detailed data studied by the Eagle Tribe’s military institutions when cracking 052, which is of great help for a deeper understanding of the strength of various types of warships of the Longxia Navy.

With the support of 052 performance data, Douglas has a deeper understanding of the 052-ton destroyer and D.

He was even more convinced that the Longxia Navy was a very powerful opponent and he must not be complacent!

It was precisely because of this assessment that he sent out all the early warning aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft in advance to predict danger and prevent unexpected incidents.

After all, no one can guarantee 100% that the Longxia Navy fleet will not play some weird tricks on them, suddenly appear from behind them, and give them a sudden and fierce blow!
The Longxia people are the originators of military tactics. These warships not only have fierce firepower and excellent performance, but also have strong stealth capabilities. After avoiding the detection of reconnaissance satellites, they suddenly appear like gods descending from the sky to launch sneak attacks. Wouldn't they be caught off guard?

In this age of discovery and destruction, the consequences are disastrous.

He has watched the record of the brief exploratory exchange of fire between the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet led by Willis and the Longxia Navy fleet on the border of the eastern waters no less than five times. He has simulated this battle many times in his mind and drafted three combat plans.

The result is predictable. If the Longxia Navy closes the distance, it will be extremely dangerous for the aircraft carrier fleet, so they must not give the other side a chance to get close.

After a long breath, Douglas turned his head to look at the deputy captain and asked, "What's the situation now?"

"Report to the captain, the sea area is very clean at the moment and no trace of any enemy fleet has been found." The deputy captain responded truthfully.

He had been staring at the radar screen, which showed no target ships.

Douglas took a deep breath and quickly reminded: "The opponent we are facing this time is different from any time before. They have stealth ships. We can't rely entirely on radar detection."

The deputy captain agreed and said immediately: "Captain, our early warning aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft are in wartime mode and are conducting reconnaissance non-stop. As long as the Longxia Navy fleet appears, they will definitely not escape our eyes."

This is equivalent to using all the reconnaissance means that the aircraft carrier fleet can use. Douglas is very satisfied with this arrangement.

No matter what, these sailors who came with the fleet have all fought in the battlefield. Whether it is combat experience or emergency response capabilities, they are superior to ordinary sailors. They are his most important reliance!

"How long will it take to reach the target sea area?" Douglas asked again after a moment of silence.

"Captain, we are expected to arrive at the designated location in four hours."

The deputy captain looked at the nautical chart and said quickly, "It is estimated that the fleet will arrive in the waters near Haiyu Island in six hours."

According to the prior deployment, four hours later, they would meet up with the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet that had set sail from the home port of the East Wilderness Tribe garrison base in the designated sea area, and by that time they would become two aircraft carrier battle groups.

They will go hand in hand through Haiyu Island and enter the Longxia waters.

"Okay, everything goes according to plan!" said Douglas.

"Yes, Captain!"

The deputy captain immediately took the order and went down to make the arrangements.

Douglas was in a heavy mood, and he murmured, "I hope they can appear in the designated sea area and wait to join us."

As they were about to have their first direct conflict with the Longxia Navy, he felt that it would be safer and more likely to win if the three aircraft carrier fleets gathered together to form a combined force.

Of course, he knew very well that there was nothing to worry about from the East Desert Sea. They would definitely execute according to the plan. The only thing to worry about was the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet. If Willis was eager for revenge, whether he was willing to wait for him was a question.

This naturally includes the Longxia Navy Fleet. Don't do anything unexpected to catch them off guard in these few hours.

Compared to the Longxia Navy fleet, he was more worried about Willis. This guy had been repeatedly suppressed by the Longxia Navy, suffered from the ridicule of his colleagues, and even almost lost his official position. The hatred in his heart might have blinded his eyes, causing him to act on his own.

As for the Longxia Navy, knowing that the coalition forces of the two countries have been formed, with the super strength of three aircraft carrier fleets, they will definitely adopt some crooked tactics. Naturally, the sooner the better, it is best to catch them off guard!
