I built an armada.

Chapter 682: Prepare for war, open fire as soon as you discover

Without waiting for Boris to speak, Pushkin smiled and said, "I have to praise Anthony of Britain and the high-ranking leaders of several other countries. They are all people with backbone, and they actually chose to take the initiative to attack."

"This way, our deployment can be put into action without having to wait until the next day."

Boris quickly accepted the order and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. If nothing goes wrong with our deployment, it will only take a few hours and we can complete it today."

"Whether it's the Dongzhou Sea Circle or the Europa Sea Circle, we don't have to worry about it anymore."

Boris was very happy. The sudden change allowed their plans to proceed faster and more smoothly.

In this case, it is even more necessary to slow down the pace of war in the Dongzhou waters. Even if it is only slowed down by an hour, it will be of great significance.

Pushkin immediately made the decision: "Send a message to the military immediately and ask them to send a fighter formation to the Dongzhou waters."

"Focus on harassment and make sure to slow down the pace of the Dongzhou campaign!"

Boris quickly accepted the order and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After receiving the order, he turned and walked out.

Soon, Emperor Pushkin was the only one left in the huge luxurious office.

Pushkin stood up, walked slowly to the windowsill, looked up at the starry night sky, took a deep breath, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it!”

"This time, the Great Chief is the winner, and our White Bear Tribe is also the winner!"

In his opinion, it was obvious that the White Bear Tribe had been identified as the beneficiary of this war, and it was the type that was sure to make a profit.

The other countries were completely unaware of the White Bear Tribe's plan to send its air force to the East Continent waters.

In the ocean tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Longxia tribe, Zhou Qinglei commanded the Longxia expedition fleet with dozens of warships of various types and marched towards the European waters.

Since they could no longer help with matters within the Dongzhou waters, and it was too late to help, and there was no order from the Navy Headquarters for them to return, then the purpose of their trip was naturally to bring back all the detained senior talents.

This can also demonstrate the importance that the Longxia tribe attaches to its own high-level talents, and make it clear to people all over the world that Longxia soldiers are able to protect ordinary Longxia people all over the world and further enhance people's self-confidence!
Otherwise, the huge sacrifice made by the Longxia Navy would be wasted. Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
Even though the azure ocean in front of him was rolling with waves and the scenery was particularly pleasant, Zhou Qinglei had no intention of appreciating it at all. His face looked very ugly and his mood was very heavy.

He had no way of predicting the final direction of the war in the Dongzhou sea area.

Before, he had contacted the Navy Headquarters in person, but the headquarters asked them to continue with the previous plan and not to worry about anything within the Dongzhou waters, as the headquarters would make arrangements.

Zhou Qinglei, standing in front of the porthole in the main control room, was extremely worried. The sky was clear above the vast ocean, and there were many seabirds flying, their calls sounded like songs. It was a beautiful scenery, but he had no intention of appreciating it at all.

"Alas, there's no point in thinking so much. It just adds to your troubles."

"Forget it, don't think about it, so as not to affect the implementation of subsequent plans."

After a moment, Zhou Qinglei sighed deeply and said helplessly.

This was one of the conspiracies of the Eagle Tribe's chieftain, which made it impossible for the commanders of the expeditionary fleet and even the Longxia defense fleet in the East Continent waters to concentrate. They always had concerns of one kind or another and were unable to focus on the battle.

After all, the two naval fleets are more than 10,000 kilometers apart. Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, and it is even more out of reach!
At this moment, the signalman suddenly reported nervously: "Captain, I just received the latest secret message from headquarters."

Any news from headquarters?
Zhou Qinglei's heart tightened, and he asked hurriedly: "What's the news? Did something happen in our base camp?"

After looking at the captain, the signalman did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly reported: "Captain, no. The headquarters reminded us that the countries in the European Sea Circle sent their own elite naval fleets to take the initiative to attack."

"According to relevant intelligence, there are at least three aircraft carrier fleets and three conventional fleets! This is the current intelligence, and in fact, there should be more."

"Headquarters reminds us to be cautious and be extra vigilant!"

After listening to the report, Zhou Qinglei's expression became extremely sharp, with cold light flashing in his eyes. His fists were clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white.

If those countries in the European waters had not caused trouble, the navy would not have separated a fleet to form an expeditionary fleet, resulting in insufficient strength of the fleet left behind at home, allowing the enemy to take advantage of the situation.

Otherwise, even if the Eagle Tribe dispatched three aircraft carrier fleets, plus an aircraft carrier fleet of the East Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force, or even included the air force of the two countries, they would still be able to fight!
It is still unknown who will win and who will lose.

The Longxia Navy has a full eighteen 052D destroyers and six -ton destroyers. Even without counting the multi-functional supply ships, there are even several nuclear submarines and numerous missile frigates. Such combat power can be said to be extremely powerful!

At the beginning, when the Longxia Navy did not have so many warships, it forcibly pulled the Donghuang Sea Self-Defense Force down from its position as the little bully in the Dongzhou waters, leaving it with no advantage.

Later, the combined naval fleet of the three countries, which consisted of nearly thirty warships, was completely destroyed by using only a few 052Ds and a -ton destroyer.

With more than ten 052D ships and the combat capability of six -ton destroyers, the strength is extremely powerful!
Relying on such a powerful navy, even if the situation in the Dongzhou waters becomes chaotic to a certain extent, the Longxia tribe is not afraid at all and can fight head-on!
But now, things have developed to the point where it is too late.

Zhou Qinglei knew that the countries in the European waters formed a joint fleet and took the initiative to attack. The Eagle Tribe must be behind it!

After taking a deep breath, Zhou Qinglei suddenly issued an order: "Signalman, inform the headquarters that I have received the relevant order and tell them that we will be careful!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the signalman immediately passed on the relevant information.

Next, Zhou Qinglei gave another serious order: "Notify all departments to enter the first level combat readiness state."

"Once you discover the Europa Sea Circle coalition forces, open fire immediately!"

"There's no way to avoid it anyway. Since they want to fight, let's have a good fight with them!"

"Respect is earned with fists!"

The deputy captain immediately took the order: "Yes, I will convey the order right away." Soon the relevant information was informed to the ships of the expeditionary fleet through the fleet-to-fleet data link.

In an instant, all the warships entered a level one combat readiness state, ready to open fire at any time.

After being replenished with ammunition and fuel from the comprehensive supply ship, the dozen or so main warships of the expeditionary fleet can be said to be full of martial virtue and have considerable combat power!
Generally speaking, a conventional fleet, even including an aircraft carrier fleet, can be divided into main combat ships and auxiliary warships according to different division of labor.

However, the Longxia Navy Fleet did not follow this principle at all, because each warship can stand on its own. Even if the 052-ton destroyer overshadows the 052D, if any D is taken out alone, it will be an absolute main battleship in the navies of other countries.

Now, even if we are facing the combined fleet of the navies of the countries in the Europa Sea circle, which has so many warships, even 4 aircraft carriers, and more than a dozen submarines, we are not without the ability to fight against such a powerful force!
Of course, the victory or defeat of a war cannot be determined by sand table simulation, and the final outcome will only be known after a naval battle.

At this moment, the fleet data link is connected, and all the captains gather in the public communication channel.

They all come from the main combat ships. As for warships such as comprehensive supply ships, they are of a logistical nature and naturally do not need to participate in such combat meetings.

"Everyone, are you all aware of the current situation?" Zhou Qinglei reported the details and then asked.

The other captains took over the conversation and expressed their opinions.

"We all know that since they want to fight us, we will fight them. No matter how many warships and aircraft carriers they send out, we will not sit there and wait for death. We are fully capable of fighting them."

"It is not a shame for a soldier to die in battle, but a good thing to bring honor to the family. At most, it is just a death. We must not let those Anglo-Saxons succeed. They want to destroy our Longxia Navy, that is just a dream!"

"The imperialists are determined to destroy us. They have always wanted to make a comeback. Sooner or later, we will have a war with them. So why not just fight them? Who is afraid of whom? As long as we make a good plan before the war, we will not be afraid of them!"

"We have nowhere to retreat. We are real men, and we all have two shoulders to carry one head. We don't need to be afraid of them. When the battle begins, we will kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor. Even if we die, we will take their aircraft carrier with us to be buried with us!"

"That's right. Let the Westerners know that the Longxia people are not so easy to bully!"

No matter which captain spoke, his words were all more or less resolute, even a little tragic.

"Captains, why are you saying these discouraging words? Who can say that we will definitely lose until the last moment?"

"If we can defeat the Western Combined Fleet, we will go down in history. Even if we die in the end, each of us can have a separate page in the family tree!"

After hearing what Zhou Qinglei said, all the captains laughed. The tense atmosphere was instantly relieved. The haze in their hearts was swept away, and instead, they were filled with fighting spirit!

After a moment, Zhou Qinglei continued, "Okay, we are not here to discuss who will go down in history."

"We currently don't know the total strength of the coalition forces in the Europa Sea area, but no matter what, we need to formulate a perfect battle plan before then."

"What do you think?"

All the captains immediately expressed their support and said, "We have no objection and support you."

"Okay, since you have no objection, I will arrange the next battle plan." Zhou Qinglei said with a serious face.

When no one had any objections, Zhou Qinglei told everyone his plan.

"You all should know that our warships are so advanced that our enemies should know something about it. Therefore, they will probably gather together to prevent us from defeating them one by one."

"Just like when we dealt with the Keyi tribe, although they acted collectively, they are unlikely to be united, so we still have a chance."

The captains nodded in agreement with this analysis, but no one interrupted.

Next, Zhou Qinglei told us his battle plan.

"Therefore, based on my inference, my combat deployment is as follows: I will divide our expeditionary fleet into three combat corps."

"It is divided into the left-wing combat group, the right-wing combat group, and the frontal combat group."

"Captain Li, as the commander of the left wing combat group, you lead two 5-ton destroyers and five Type 052Ds."

"Captain Ma, as the commander of the right-wing combat group, you lead two 5-ton destroyers and five 052Ds!"

"After the order is given, you will attack from the left and right wings!"

"I will lead a 5-ton destroyer, five Type 052D destroyers, and two nuclear submarines to launch a frontal attack."

"I'll take this as Plan A!"

The subject suddenly changed and Zhou Qinglei continued speaking.

"In addition, we also have our own technological advantages. The radar detection distance is far enough and the range is wide enough. If we disperse them, we can form a huge radar network to control the battlefield."

"Once we discover that their operational layout is different from what we expected, we can make adjustments in advance."

"Then, let me tell you about Plan B, and let's discuss it together..."

All the captains listened carefully and joined in the discussion.

Every captain knew very well that the situation had become extremely complicated and it was meaningless to consult the headquarters for combat plans.

They can only make tactical rearrangements and adjustments based on different situations.

Moreover, the headquarters had already issued an order before they came out. As the supreme commander of the fleet, Zhou Qinglei could formulate relevant combat plans in case of emergencies, and everyone must obey his dispatch.

The situation has now developed to a very bad point. Unlike before, there is still room for discussion.

The reason why the headquarters sent such an elite naval force here was that they had already prepared for two options.
