Except for the three Ford-class aircraft carriers of the American Federation, the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers in other countries is almost negligible. However, this is not important. Hawks knows that this war is not the main battlefield for aircraft carriers.
Standing up, Hawkes said: "Notify all superior officers to attend the meeting in the combat conference room immediately."
By the time he finished speaking, Hawkes had already left the bridge and entered the passage inside the ship at the rear.
Soon, under the call of Hawks, officers at all levels arrived at the war conference room.
In the conference room, many senior officers in military uniforms stood around the conference table.
Some of their identities are staff officers, some are captains, and now, in the conference room, they have become Admiral Howick's think tank.
"Our goal is clear. The president has issued an order to attack Black Flag City's aerospace craft. We must sweep Black Flag City's forces out of the New World in one fell swoop. But how to fight, we need to formulate a plan."
Because of Hovik's words, the officers around the conference table began to discuss in low voices.
After a while, someone said: "The aerostat in Black Flag City is a big thing. It can be easily hit by both ground and air missiles. It shouldn't be difficult to just shoot down the aerostat.
No careful planning is required, just launch the missile."
As soon as this was said, another person immediately retorted: "Black Flag City has a small unmanned fighter jet. The aerostat is just a platform. Once we launch missiles, Black Flag City will respond immediately and they will immediately release unmanned aerial vehicles."
Human fighter aircraft, everyone must have not forgotten that night a few months ago. Fighter aircraft from various countries suffered heavy losses, all caused by those small unmanned fighter jets. If we underestimate the enemy too much, we will pay a heavy price."
"I agree with this point of view. The aerostat is a large platform and its own defense will not be low. We must consider it carefully and think of various possible situations."
"We don't know anything about Black Flag City. As far as I know, Black Flag City's unmanned fighter jets also have the ability to self-destruct, which will pose a serious threat to the fleet. When attacking, we must also consider air defense.
question."
In the conference room, everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
And this is exactly what Hawick wants to see. From the opinions of these officers, he will think of a foolproof strategy.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and it was not until two hours later that Hawick formulated a plan, made the final decision, and left the meeting room with a group of staff officers and officers.
Time is passing little by little, and another storm is gradually forming around the Sevier Republic.
May 12, 2134, 14:13 pm.
To the west of the Republic of Seville, about thirty nautical miles away on the high seas, a huge airship was quietly suspended thousands of meters in the sky.
The weather today is very good and cloudless, which makes the airship in the sky very eye-catching. It can be seen even from a hundred miles away. If you use a telescope, you will see it more clearly.
This is Black Flag City's "Global Overlord" No. 1 boat, an armed airship.
In the bridge, as the voice of No. 1 sounded, the tranquility of the bridge was broken.
"Commander, there is a change in the combined fleet, warning, radar illumination detected, warning..."
On the large command chair, a tall black-armored guard sat upright.
The piercing sirens from the bridge command room woke Li Meng from his deep sleep.
In the helmet, Li Meng's eyelids moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, revealing the blue pupils inside.
"No. 1, report the situation."
As Li Meng's voice fell, the alarm in the bridge command room suddenly stopped.
The light in the arms flickered, forming a holographic screen in front of Li Meng.
It's a map, and the radar detected the tactical map.
"Three hours ago, the fleets of India, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, and France began to assemble towards the American Federation Fleet. Just half an hour ago, the combined fleet began to move eastward. Two minutes ago, the fleet radar was turned on.
The "Global King" boat No. 1 has been locked."
Li Meng did not forget Hua Biying's reminder. It seems that the United Nations is determined to become the enemy of Black Flag City.
"Commander, I need clear instructions."
Li Meng said calmly: "Don't do anything, just let them take the first shot."
The reminder from Hua Biying let Li Meng know that this day would come sooner or later. Li Meng just didn't expect that this day would come so soon. The rebels of the Republic of Seville just announced their surrender this morning, and the United Nations planned to do so in the afternoon.
Attack Black Flag City and become angry?
Just south of the "Global Overlord", about forty nautical miles away, on the blue sea, a huge fleet is slowly moving forward, leaving long-lasting white traces on the sea.
.
This is an extremely spectacular scene. The only pity is that there are no bystanders on the vast sea. Due to the confidentiality of the operation, this spectacular scene will not be recorded on the video.
"Commander Howick, the radars on all ships have been turned on, the fire control radars have locked onto the targets, and they are ready to fire at any time."
In the bridge of one of the "Ford-class" aircraft carriers, Hawick sat in the captain's seat and glanced down at the watch on his left wrist.
After standing up, Hawick came to the window and looked at the distant sky on the left side of the fleet with a telescope.
In the telescope, Hawick saw a huge empty boat in the distant sky.
It is so big that its length of one kilometer makes it astonishingly large. You can clearly see it even from more than 40 nautical miles away. Of course, the premise is that the weather must be good and there are no clouds in the sky to observe it.
arrive.
Hawick knew that he could not hesitate and must resolutely give the order to attack.
Although he doesn't know what the outcome will be and which side will win, he is a soldier and he must obey orders.
While looking at the "aerostat" in the telescope, Hawick said: "Fire!"
"Open fire, all ships open fire immediately!"
Following Havik's order, the fleets sailing outside on the sea and the destroyers guarding both sides of the aircraft carrier opened the manhole covers of the launching devices.
"Whoosh..."
Amidst the ear-piercing screams and roars, missiles took off one after another, dragging their long tail flames straight into the sky, and pounced towards the north.
The missiles took off one after another, and with a rumbling roar, nearly a hundred missiles took off one after another, and all rushed towards the north, disappearing into the sky.
"Warning, warning, missile is coming, missile is coming..."
The moment the missile took off, it was captured by the radar of the "Globemaster" boat No. 1.
Seeing a small red dot on the tactical map moving quickly towards the "Global Overlord" boat No. 1, Li Meng's expression on his face was solemn in his helmet.
Now that the United Nations has fired the first shot, Black Flag City has no choice but to accompany it to the end.
