12. Announcement of the Arrival of Sakura (1)

Lin Shen’s way of command is always to put himself on the edge of the cliff.

There is little room for error in every combat operation.

The same is true this time.

He collected basic information about the terrain here in advance.

After coming here, by comparing the information obtained through his soul network detection, he can basically know all the places within the range instantly.

All that remains is to screen out any discrepancies with the intelligence.

Because they are familiar enough with the map, they can design a sufficiently detailed battle plan to fight in the enemy's controlled area.

Not all Sirens are at level 40 or 50.

Among them, there are also many mass-produced models that have only recently been mass-produced, or mass-produced models 2.

Their level is only around thirty.

Sirens of this level simply cannot effectively intercept the ship girls under Lin Shen's command. The places where these Sirens are distributed are the routes that Lin Shen wants to travel. Although the highest goal of this operation is clearly defined, Lin Shen has no intention of eating a fat man in one bite.

In the w7 area, there are tens of thousands of low-level sirens.

These low-level Sirens are specifically used to deal with human clone armies.

The level gap between the two sides was not too big.

Therefore, it is effective when facing large-scale troops.

But now when facing Lin Shen, it has lost its original effect.

After Lin Shen's fleet rushed in, the rhythm of the battle never stopped.

Everyone's position is changing all the time.

Lin Shen did not ask them to cooperate with each other and act together.

But completely dispersed.

But it is not that scattered.

Under his macro control, the distance between each person is strictly controlled within the most appropriate range. As long as there is a problem on one side, the other sides will change accordingly, so as to increase the "tolerance rate" as much as possible within the planning scope. However, this tolerance rate is also on the edge of the cliff.

Every second from the time Lin Shen's order was sent, received, and executed was strictly calculated. Therefore, while engaging in such a high-intensity battle, Chu Shuang and the others were all on edge. Before setting off, Lin Shen had already informed them of the entire battle plan.

Everyone knew the danger in advance. This time was completely different from the previous ones. In the previous battles, if there was a mistake, there was still a chance to come back, and Lin Shen could cover it to the greatest extent. In this operation, if there was a mistake, it would not be solved by the cover.

The overall combat rhythm will be broken because of this, and once a gap occurs, the Sirens that were mobilized along with the others will be stuck in it, posing a considerable threat to Lin Shen and everyone else in the fleet.

If the battlefield is compared to a chess game, the commanders above the sergeant level are basically equivalent to the chess players outside the chessboard. No matter how the situation changes inside, in the end, the rook will not capture the chess player himself. But the commanders below the sergeant level are equivalent to the general on the chessboard. The difference is that the general can be captured, while the chess player does not need to worry about being captured by the chess pieces.

Lin Shen was now the general who was moving at high speed with the fleet. He could be wiped out in the battle area as long as the Siren could find his location. However, in the whole day after the battle began, the Siren took a series of response measures, but still could not find Lin Shen's location.

They had no way to lock onto Lin Shen with the soul network, and could only rely on more advanced detection methods to detect him. And these detection methods could be physically destroyed. Lin Shen's first target was the communication facilities used to transmit signals. Even if the Siren's technology was the best, it would eventually have to be built on the surface.

As long as it is built on the surface, it can be destroyed. Just like those extremely powerful giant fortresses, a shot from the muzzle should be able to directly empty the health bar of the expellee on the spot. However, while being extremely powerful, it also sacrifices portability and is almost impossible to move. When dealing with highly mobile enemies, the solid defense lines formed by these behemoths have all become the Maginot Line.

It's really a defense against loneliness.

Those who can deal with highly mobile forces can either use range strikes, or use equally highly mobile forces to chase and intercept, or simply block the opponent's movement area. However, these methods seem a bit weak when used to deal with Lin Shen now. His position is always changing, and all the information of the entire battlefield is under Lin Shen's eyes, and the enemy's movements are all clear.

A-level soul network detection can directly cover a range of more than 40 kilometers. What does this mean? The range of the ship's equipment cannot be calculated according to the range of a real warship. Although the range of the ship's equipment is definitely much farther than that of ordinary light weapons, it is completely incomparable to the range of a real warship's guns.

Originally, the KanColle already possessed the three attributes of high mobility, high damage, and high tankiness. If it had a super high range, the Siren would have lost the war long ago, and there would be no need to fight until now. There is no absolutely perfect creature in the world, and even KanColle is no exception.

After taking into account the three important attributes, they sacrificed the range. Although the range of the ship equipment easily exceeds that of automatic rifles and other firearms, it is still dwarfed by the attack range of real warships. The same is true for the Siren. They also chose high mobility, high damage, and high tankiness, but sacrificed high range. The mass-produced humanoid sirens have a much shorter range than ordinary Siren ships floating on the sea.

With the coverage of the A-level soul network, as long as the route is planned, Lin Shen’s safety will not be a big problem.

All the enemy's movements were under his observation, so what could go wrong? In the time it took for the enemy to move one step, Lin Shen could plan out all his retreat routes based on the enemy's movement trend. So, theoretically speaking, as long as the Siren didn't use other means to lock his position, it would be almost impossible for the Siren to find Lin Shen in such a large area.

Akamori Sakura didn't know that Akamori Yuming could actually play like Lin Shen. The convenience brought by the A-level soul strength was very much, enough to support him to do these tricks while controlling the entire battle situation. The B-level soul strength, which was one step back, could only cover a range of more than 20 kilometers.

Cut in half directly.

Therefore, it is impossible for a B-level commander to replace an A-level commander on the battlefield. Without the hard power, it is a luxury to even think about it. Other countries do not have A-level commanders, so they had a very difficult time in the early stages of the war. It was only in recent years that they gradually withdrew because of the stability of the main battlefields of Donghuang and Chongying.

What happens after they get out? Only they themselves know how much pressure they are under.

The first reaction of the Siren after facing Lin Shen's surprise attack was to use highly mobile troops to intercept. Then, this batch of Sirens all became the nourishment of Lin Shen's fleet. After that, the second batch came, with a larger number, nearly 10,000. The difference in training alone was huge, not to mention the increase given by Lin Shen's soul network and the huge gap brought by equipment.

Therefore, the second batch of Siren's 10,000-strong army of more than 30 levels was also destroyed in two days. In the repeated mobile battles, the Siren's command finally realized something. The few ship girls in front of them seemed to be different from the regular troops they had fought before.

These ship girls move in the general direction as if they have eyes. They will never let themselves be completely surrounded, nor will they approach a dead end or dead end. They are always moving, with almost no time to stop, and the target of their movement is not clear. It seems that they are just looking for the Siren's own troops. When they encounter them, they attack, kill one-sidedly, and then evacuate before more Sirens surround them.

Completed in one go, without any pause.

Each of them had an extremely strong individual combat capability. Even if they were bombed to death by battleship guns and bombers, they could not be killed. The enemy could always rush out from the gunfire, always find a solid shelter to maneuver at any time, always evacuate at the most appropriate time, and then go around to places where the main firepower such as aircraft carriers and battleships could not reach to reap the harvest again.

The movement speed is ridiculously fast.

It appears to be just an ordinary destroyer, with extremely high maneuverability.

They couldn't catch them, and they couldn't defeat them. The main force couldn't hit the target at all, and the vanguard was slaughtered one-sidedly. How could they fight this battle? When Lin Shen realized that the enemy seemed a bit difficult to deal with, three days had passed since he took action. It was the fourth day.

It took Siren four days to determine that the "ant" that ran over this time seemed difficult to step on. The military behind also spent four days to find that Lin Shen's signal had been in Siren's control area. After four days, it still hadn't gone out, and nothing had happened. If you get close to the edge of Siren's control area -

Akamori Sakura could hear the intensive artillery fire in the distance for four days. There were explosions almost every day, explosions, explosions, explosions, from far to near, and then gradually getting farther away. The reason was unknown, it should be chasing a target, but the position signal of Lin Shen had not approached this side from the beginning, and the Siren army did not know what was going on...

fan.

Akamori Sakura, with her vision honed over the years, couldn't understand what was going on. She used her soul network to cover the area and could see the Siren's large-scale troops moving at high speed, a black mass, like a steel torrent. She even almost asked the military to rush over here for support, thinking that the Siren was going to take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack again.

But the Sirens did not.

Apart from the confusion, the only thing left was the shock of disbelief. It took the people gathered here by Akamori Sakura so long to finally figure out what happened. After figuring it out, there was no longer any question of whether to die or not in their minds. All that was left was - enthusiasm, admiration, and the boiling blood that suddenly began to surge after cooling down for a long time.

It was as if he couldn't wait to rush over and do this thing with the boss who was wandering alone in the Siren controlled area. It sounded like he could brag about it for the rest of his life. Even if he died on the battlefield now, it would be worth it.

"Commander, are we really not going to help? After all, we are also in the battle sequence!" A young guy couldn't help but ask Akamori Sakura loudly during the break.

Then Akamori Sakura glanced at him, her eyes looking at a hot-blooded idiot: "What are you going to do? Make trouble? Only he can do this. If you go, you will just become cannon fodder."

"Uh..." The young man who was asked back immediately showed an embarrassed look. Indeed, they only saw the feat that Lin Shen was still doing at the moment, but forgot the difficulty of it. Except for this ruthless person who suddenly appeared, no one else could do such a terrifying thing.

"Can the Marshal do it?" another person asked suddenly.

"..."

His words made everyone quiet down. This is not a good question. He might get scolded. Fortunately, the person who temporarily served as their superior was Akamori Sakura, not someone else. Others might worship Akamori Yuaki with admiration, but Akamori Sakura would not.

She will be more objective.

"Even if the Marshal could do it, no one would want him to go."

Akamori Sakura said.

"What if you really go?" the young boy continued to ask, as if he didn't realize the sensitivity of the question at all.

"Maybe he can come back, maybe he can't. Who can say for sure what he hasn't actually done? Without facts as a basis, it's useless to say more." Akamori Sakura replied coldly. Recalling Akamori Yuming's high praise and recognition of Lin Shen, Akamori Sakura felt that Lin Shen could do what he could do. Lin Shen could probably do better than him in what he couldn't do.

13. Announcement of the Arrival of Sakura (2)

In just four days, Lin Shen's actions had caused a subtle change in the attitudes of those who were paying attention to this matter in the entire military. Some people still didn't care, while others followed closely behind Kawahara Katsu and told their subordinates not to care. In the military, where personal relationships are very important, the opinions of those above can largely determine the opinions of those below.

However, there were still some people whose attitudes were not completely inclined to look down on him, or who still stood firmly on Kawahara Katsu's side. Although there was still no change on the surface, the discussion in the military was almost suppressed. Although the battle in the corner area of ​​W7 had already begun, everyone could only pay attention to the situation there and could not speak out directly.

The atmosphere in the entire military began to become a little strange. Those subtle changes could not be detected by those who were not sensitive enough. Those who could sneak in were all shrewd people. If Lin Shen died on the battlefield, then this matter would be over, and there was no need to develop it further.

What if Lin Shen didn’t die there?

Lin Shen's fleet roamed in the Siren's control area for five days.

After taking some time to rest, they continued to move according to the time. The Siren's attitude towards these little bugs began to become more and more serious. If a large force of 10,000 cannot kill them, then 20,000 people will besiege you. If 20,000 people are not enough, then 50,000 or 100,000! The Siren is not short of mass-produced combat power. Although all of them are cannon fodder with a level of around 30, there are enough of them.

As long as there are enough of them, they can pile up and kill the enemy. As long as the bombing area is large enough, no matter how hard Glasgow and his men run, they can't escape the bombing area. Hundreds of thousands of Sirens began to move frantically in this entire area, even beyond the w7 area. The troops that were originally stationed in fixed places for defense were all pulled out, and began to block the entire control area as a chessboard.

The effect is still there.

At least, from Lin Shen's perspective, the fleet's retreat routes are indeed becoming fewer and fewer. The other side directly exerted great strength to create miracles. After all, there were too few people on his side. There was really no way. But, so what? There were few people, but one could withstand a thousand, and ten people could hold back ten thousand enemies. If combined with the route planning and tactical design like the Sky Eye, these ten people would not be just ten people, but ghosts wandering in the entire war zone.

In the past five days, all ten people in the fleet have reached level 50 or above. But the price they paid was that their minds became increasingly tired. The continuous high-intensity, high-frequency, and high-precision combat missions were very torturous. Even McCall was too lazy to take a second look at the Siren, which was only around level , and his reflex was to fire a cannon at it.

Two shots will be directly scrapped.

But there were too many cannon fodders, so she still had to fire them one by one, and the energy she needed to expend was not much reduced. In addition, she had to adjust her rhythm and direction of movement according to Lin Shen's tactical command at all times, and pay attention to the enemy's blockade, etc. All these added up to the result that although the enemy was weak, she was already used to fighting one-on-n.

But the mind is not relaxed and the spirit is very tired.

And this fatigue is accumulating rapidly as time goes by.

This situation continued until the sixth day, when the Siren finally realized that too many cannon fodders seemed to be of little use. They began to use more elite troops to conduct precise tracking and strikes. They did not use the main force, but directly used the mass-produced 2nd level elite vanguard troops to start a one-on-one capture of Glasgow and his men.

At this point, the intensity of the battle that Glasgow and his team faced began to change from quantity to another form. After the means of dealing with the replicas failed, the Siren finally began to use their true strength. The small group of elites was much more difficult to deal with than the cannon fodder troops that came in tens of thousands before.

In addition to these elite troops that were still in action, the other cannon fodder troops began to retreat, and gradually returned to their original locations on the seventh day, still in the four important strongholds that needed to be defended, and the war fortress that had been built.

The Siren seemed to have decided to use cannon fodder against cannon fodder, and elite against elite.

Humans always think that the Sirens use human wave tactics and scale tactics because they are good at this form of attack. In fact, it is not true. The focus of the Sirens may have always been elite, but to deal with humans and ship girls, it is enough to use mass-produced type 1 to carry out scale tactics. Humans have too many things to worry about, too many things to defend.

Large-scale troops can better occupy the conquered areas, and then build important fortifications to reinforce the key defensive areas.

Now Lin Shen was put into the "elite" category as an exception. Anyway, the troops that came out to attack Glasgow and the others were all level 2 mass-produced Type 1. Under Lin Shen's soul network detection, he even saw that the Siren sent out several Tracker Type s to try to impose more effective sanctions on Glasgow and the others.

After discovering that the number was insufficient, the number of Tracker Type 1s was expanded to one hundred.

One hundred Tracker 1s, each with several hundred mass-produced 2s, launched a frantic pursuit along the route Glasgow and the others had taken. And this time, they would not give up and would not stop until they were dead. It was as if they had been given a death order by their superiors.

You are not allowed to go back without results.

Lin Shen had no better way to deal with this kind of enemy who was chasing him to death. He could only shake them off. Since he couldn't shake them off, he could only think of a way to fight them. With Glasgow and the others' abilities, it was impossible to deal with so many pursuers at the same time. They could only think of a way to cut them off to a certain extent.

How to cut? If it were an ordinary person, there would probably be no way, and they could only ask for support. But Lin Shen had it, his soul power was the best weapon. Soul power could also force intervention on the Siren. Under Lin Shen's control and dispatch, Glasgow and the others, who had been chased for two days, finally got out of the chase smoothly.

After adjusting their positions again, Glasgow, Hatsushimo and others slowly gathered together and began to eliminate the Siren pursuit force that had been cut off. The process was not short, but very long. After the ten ship girls gathered together, they could indeed exert a more fierce combat effect, but it was also very time-consuming to clean up three or four hundred level 2 mass-produced type ships, especially with the support of the trackers behind them.

This places extremely high demands on the actual combat capabilities of the ship girl herself.

“…You have five hours.”

After Lin Shen’s calculation, he gave a time limit in the soul network.

It's just that no one has the energy to reply.

Fight, fight, and fight again. The heavy rain could not suppress the firepower of the ship, and the deafening roar of the ship's guns was like thunder. Ten people performed their duties, constantly adjusting their positions and maneuvering. If it were not so beautifully described, it would be a group of wild beasts and a group of steel monsters, fighting in the heavy rain to completely strangle each other.

No one shed blood, but if someone could watch this battle live, they would definitely feel the bloody storm. The vanguard troops of the mass-produced type 2 fell one after another. In order to ensure the speed of pursuit, the Siren's elite pursuit force did not bring capital ships, aircraft carriers, battleships, or even heavy cruisers.

In order to keep up with Lin Shen's speed, many things were abandoned. It was the same for Lin Shen. Lin Shen spent the most time to adjust and control the battle between Nagato and the other battleships. Their battle needed to be safe enough and effective enough. If the two sides were in a confrontation, the battleships were very valuable firepower output.

However, in a long, large-scale tug-of-war, the battleships cannot better play their advantages. Therefore, the battles of Nagato, Hyuga, and Tirpitz are more complicated and more thrilling. Every time the enemy rushes to the face, then is eliminated at short range, and then continues to move, and then uses straddle fire again to eliminate the enemy in pursuit, and then eliminates the missed enemy at short range.

Although it is described very easily.

But it is actually very troublesome to implement.

Only until now could the three of them feel at ease in the rear, rather than risking being in close contact with the enemy. During the nine-day battle, Tirpitz even had the illusion that staying at home was really a blessing - no, maybe that wasn't an illusion.

Looking at Glasgow and others who were constantly sprinting close to him, Tirpitz's thoughts were pulled back again. The heavy rain was still falling, constantly sprinkling on everyone. Lin Shen was commanding in a relatively safe place at the moment. It was not without reason that this place was chosen as the battlefield for the direct response to the Siren's elite pursuit force.

Nagato and Hinata both had obvious signs of fatigue on their faces.

Hinata was fine, but Nagato was the main problem. In the past few days of fighting, Lin Shen had taken good care of her, which helped her level up. Her ability was very useful in clearing out enemies that came close to her. Nagato should have relied on this skill to give herself a sense of security. But it didn't happen at all - in fact, because of this skill, she was the one that was approached by enemies the most.

Every time it was like walking on the edge of a knife, and at this moment Nagato couldn't even figure out whether it was better to fight with these mass-produced sirens who had no expression on their faces no matter how they fought, or to lie in the laboratory and be dissected. Maybe both experiences were not good, but if he had to compare them, Nagato felt that perhaps, it would be more torturous here.

She had no idea how many times she had thought, "When will this end?" in the past few days. It seemed like the enemies were endless, and she was alone, without any teammates except Lin Shen's soul network. The only thing she could see was the powerful visual impact brought by a large number of sirens.

too tired.

I was so tired that I had an illusion.

It was as if he was just a machine that only knew how to kill, madly harvesting the same lifeless machines, repeating, repeating, as if there would never be an end. He didn't know how the others felt. Nagato looked tiredly at Glasgow, Hatsushimo, and Laffey who were still fighting.

Compared to the battleships in the back row, they obviously had more things to do, and they had to bear greater pressure. At least, after the ten people gathered together to fight together, the pressure they bore was indeed the heaviest. If they could not withstand the terrifying pressure brought by the mass-produced Type 2 Sirens in front, the battleships in the back would be hit the most directly.

After so many days of long battles, their faces were expressionless, and even their emotions became more violent. The enemy was very difficult, and these enemies who were called elite were even more difficult, and they were not comparable to those cannon fodders. But even so, these enemies seemed to be no different from cannon fodders in their hands.

If we ignore Jiang Feng and the others' emotional fluctuations and only look at what we can see in front of us, then this battle is still a one-sided massacre. Although everyone's stress value is almost maxed out, the results presented are also top-level, and there is no room for further improvement.

Hundreds of mass-produced Type 2 Sirens above level were completely shredded in the three long hours, turning into scrap metal one after another. They fell into the puddle, and the high temperature of the shell explosion evaporated the water in the puddle or splashed it in all directions.
