Although this conflict was short-lived, it made a significant mark in military history. It was known as the Battle of the Fifty-Third Degree, also known as the Battle of the South Pacific.
Western countries call it the Battle of the Southern Star.
After the battle, except for the severely damaged Queen's aircraft carrier battle group which had to withdraw to its home port, the Chinese and American battle groups only took a brief rest and then went into intense search again.
After this attack, all countries hope that aliens will continue to launch attacks, but a lone warship is by no means a match for the enemy. Only a large fleet can have the strength to defeat the enemy.
Therefore, each country immediately ordered its fleets to stop searching and immediately assemble at the designated coordinates.
The several assembly coordinates were urgently negotiated by various countries and do not belong to any one country. Any warship that receives the order must immediately and unconditionally proceed to the nearest assembly point.
The order has been issued, but the assembly will take time, and all countries are on tenterhooks, fearing that their warships will be attacked by aliens again.
But in this world, we are always afraid of everything. First, a French warship was attacked by aliens, and then a German warship was sunk. In addition, six anti-aircraft ships were sunk by alien fighters.
The aliens have succeeded one after another, which has made the top officials of various countries tense up.
The enemy's tactics are very clear. They no longer attack large fleets, but instead attack isolated ships.
Even if the alien warships hidden under the sea cannot adapt to the environment, they still have a huge tactical advantage one-on-one. As long as they are targeted by the alien warships, the possibility of escaping from the crisis is very small.
For a time, everyone on ships in the southern hemisphere was in danger.
After receiving the news, various countries immediately realized that they had neglected the anti-aircraft ships, and immediately changed their orders, requiring all ships in the southern hemisphere to immediately move closer to the nearest friendly ship.
Aliens hide deep under the water, and in order to conceal their whereabouts, they never release fighter planes except for launching attacks. It can be inferred that most of the aliens find their targets by looking up underwater.
They are not familiar with human surface ships. They will definitely not know whether the target is a warship or a civilian ship just by looking at the bottom of the ship. Therefore, as long as the ships on the water are concentrated, the possibility of being attacked will be greatly reduced.
Facts have also proved this judgment. When the ships at sea, regardless of their size and nationality, gathered together one by one, the attack immediately disappeared and the aliens once again disappeared into the depths of the ocean. No matter how hard the human fleet searched, they could not be found.
At least the slightest clue.
What a dramatic turn!
From a tactical level alone, both humans and aliens have suffered losses, or they have explored each other's weaknesses, but from a strategic level, the series of naval battles surrounding Antarctica are of extraordinary significance.
.
The most important point is to make sure that the human surface fleet can completely defeat the aliens, instead of just talking about it before landing.
In order to dig out the missing alien warships, various countries have deployed their submarine forces into the war zone, and even Russia, which has been very marginalized in recent years, is no exception.
Various countries even urgently equipped their navies with a batch of anti-submarine torpedoes carrying nuclear bombs. Unfortunately, the submarines could not find any clues, and no matter how many nuclear torpedoes they were equipped with, they would be of no use.
The development of the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to mankind. In order to uncover the hidden alien warships, various countries have gathered elite troops and generals to analyze various possibilities in an all-round way. After careful analysis based on various factors, they believe that there are several possibilities.
First, the alien warships hid in the deep sea, which is an area that human military power cannot reach. Even the use of deep-sea submarines is of no use.
Second, if the enemy gives up attacking a single ship, it is very likely that it will shrink its forces and concentrate its efforts to strike hard.
Third, the alien fleet may abandon the ocean and quietly land on land to seek land.
There are also some miscellaneous speculations, all kinds of strange.
While various countries were struggling to find the alien fleet, the aliens who landed came into contact with the aliens hiding in Africa. An alien warship approached southern Africa from all directions.
Submerged underwater, quietly approaching Africa, and finally entering Africa through an underwater cave.
Tens of thousands of giant insects took action and rushed to the "pier" in the heart of the mountain through the underground network extending in all directions to transport materials from the alien warship.
At the same time, alien warships scattered in the ocean rushed to Africa from all directions, entering the "pier" one after another.
Africa was originally the continent where aliens have been operating for the longest time. After adding a large number of aliens, it completely became the aliens' general base on the earth.
Not only Africa, South America also welcomed dozens of alien warships.
Although the human coalition destroyed the giant insects that occupied South America, they were still unable to find any trace of the aliens.
These aliens have been hiding in the dark. If the natural environment of South America had not been destroyed and there were no resources available, they would never have tolerated it for so long.
After the aliens in the two places received support, they immediately ushered in a new round of rapid development.
In the past, they could only use surface and underground resources, but could not do anything about ocean resources. But this time, the alien fleet that landed brought new technology and could directly use ocean resources to develop their own strength.
In just a few days, a large number of alien plants have grown on the continental shelves of Africa and South America. They imitate the photosynthesis of earth plants, absorb nutrients from the ocean crazily, and continuously provide nutrients for aliens. Alien insects
The group developed like blowing up balloons, and giant insects with various functions multiplied in large numbers, greatly enhancing the aliens' strength.
Compared with the barren Ganymede, the earth is simply a paradise, and you can harvest countless things casually. They don't even need to destroy the ecological environment of the ocean, they can support the entire population just by relying on alien plants.
Because aliens have only occupied Africa and South America, alien plants have not spread to other areas, so all countries know nothing about it.
But how could aliens only be satisfied with Africa and South America? While they were hiding underground and quietly developing, they were also quietly expanding outwards. The alien plants under the sea began to spread to North America and Africa, and some aliens even sneaked in on warships.
On several other continents, several secret bases were established in search of suitable locations.
At this time, human fleets are still searching for alien warships all over the world. The top leaders of various countries never expected that the earth has been divided into two without the complete knowledge of humans. Humans live on the ground and the sea, and aliens are lurking underground.
And underwater, the hostile parties actually formed a strange balance because of the aliens' forbearance.
But everyone knows that the contradiction between humans and aliens is irreconcilable, and it is only a matter of time before the war breaks out.
