On September 17, in the depths of the Endless Sea, the commander of the Third Mobile Fleet, Admiral Fang Gaojie, looked at the telegram in his hand. At the same time, the chief of staff, Major General Ye Weihong, said: "Now the landing fleet has left the East China Sea Islands and is heading towards the East Pole.
The enemy may have already made relevant deployments in the direction of the island. Should we move a certain distance north to provide timely support?"
Admiral Fang Gaojie said: "Don't worry, the enemy fleet and landing fleet on Dongji Island alone can handle it. Our focus is to intercept and kill the enemy's main force coming from Kingdom Island!"
While the Third Mobile Fleet was hiding in the depths of the Endless Sea, the East China Sea Islands were about hundreds of kilometers away from Dongji Island, and the massive Daheng Empire naval fleet was heading towards Dongji Island.
They have the Fourth Mobile Fleet, the Sixth Mobile Fleet, and the Eighth Mobile Fleet, a total of three mobile fleets heading towards the East Pole Island.
Behind them, in the waters of the East China Sea Islands still under the control of the Daheng Empire Navy, a large number of escort warships and transport fleets are also moving forward slowly. They will decide to continue to land based on the situation of the main fleet of the empire in front.
It's better to give up the landing plan and go home.
Such a large-scale operation by the landing fleet composed of the three major mobile fleets and the transport fleet could not be concealed from anyone at all, because the Daheng Empire Navy only participated in this operation with hundreds of warships of various types.
As long as the Krul Navy does not open their eyes and blind them, it is impossible for them to fail to see such a large-scale Imperial Navy appearing in the eastern waters of Dongji Island.
There is no way to hide it, and there is no need to hide it.
When the Daheng Empire's naval fleet just set out to sea, the Krul Kingdom's navy had already discovered it, and then began to deploy the fleet for strategic deployment.
The Daheng Empire Navy wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to land on Dongji Island to lure out the main force of the enemy fleet, and then use three light and one dark forces, a total of four mobile fleets, to severely damage or even annihilate the main fleet of the incoming Krull Kingdom Navy.
u001b If the Krul navy does not come, then the Daheng Empire will land on Dongji Island and then blockade Dongji Island. In this way, Dongji Island will be finished. In the future, the Daheng Empire can use Dongji Island as a basis for advancement.
base, a direct threat to the Krull Kingdom itself.
And this is absolutely intolerable to the Kingdom of Krul.
So, this is a conspiracy!
The senior civil and military officials of the Krul Kingdom and even well-informed people in the private sector knew that the Daheng people were preparing to land on Dongji Island. At the same time, many people could guess that the Daheng people must have some back-up plan.
But they have no choice!
What's more, they don't have to choose!
They are the Kingdom of Krul, the world's largest, and their naval tonnage is still the largest in the world. They have enough strength to face any challenge!
As for Hengmanzi's potential conspiracy, it is useless in the face of absolute strength.
Dozens of battleships, hundreds of battleships are swaying on the sea, but you want to show me your conspiracy?
This is not about underestimating the enemy or being overconfident, it is the fact!
Of course, as a veteran navy, although the Krul Kingdom Navy has sufficient confidence, it has all the necessary precautions. In addition to gathering the main force to prepare for the battle in the waters of the East Pole Island, they also dispatched a large number of troops in all directions.
of reconnaissance vessels.
bAnd this kind of traditional maritime reconnaissance is much inferior to the series of navy-affiliated reconnaissance aircraft newly equipped by the Daheng Empire.
In the waters due south of Dongji Island, directly in front of the Third Mobile Fleet, there is a Krull reconnaissance cruiser conducting a search and reconnaissance.
But the reconnaissance cruiser had no idea that a small black spot could be vaguely seen in the clouds diagonally ahead of it.
And this little black spot is still emitting a series of radio waves.
Admiral Gao Fangjie of the Third Mobile Fleet, which was more than 200 kilometers away, saw the message just a few minutes later and ordered the fleet to start evasive steering.
After waiting for several hours, as the night fell, Admiral Fang Gaojie relied on the situation of two enemy reconnaissance warships near the enemy detected by seaplanes in the last evening, and began to lead the fleet to rely on the cover of night to pass through the enemy's search.
And pass!
That night, the Underwood reconnaissance cruiser of the Kingdom of Krul continued to carry out reconnaissance missions as before. However, after many days of reconnaissance missions, they had actually run all the way into the depths of the endless sea. There was nothing in this place.
, they couldn't see the island, let alone the enemy fleet. Such a long reconnaissance mission had already made them feel bored, and they couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.
So their course is very straight!
If its course deviates slightly to the left at this time, then it may find a suspicious warship moving on the left.
At that time, if they fired another flare, they would be able to see the Third Mobile Fleet covering almost the entire sea surface!
But they did not deviate from the course, so naturally they could not detect the Third Mobile Fleet that passed them by!
b Relying on the aerial reconnaissance provided by seaplanes and carrier-based aircraft, the Third Mobile Fleet avoided the Krul Kingdom's reconnaissance ships and even ordinary civilian ships, and sailed all the way to the waters due south of the East Pole Island.
At this time, they had actually already reached the rear of the main fleet of the Krul Kingdom Navy!
The purpose of the Third Mobile Fleet's detour in such a large circle is very simple. In the early stage, it was to conceal the information about a group of cutting-edge battleships in the Third Mobile Fleet, especially the situation of the six super battleships.
The second is to kill the enemy directly from behind after the decisive battle breaks out between the two sides!
Just imagine, when dozens of battleships from both sides have formed a battle line and are preparing for a large-scale line bombardment, an enemy's high-speed mobile fleet appears behind one of the fleets. That scene will definitely be a disaster.
sexual.
From the current point of view, the Third Mobile Fleet is still successful, but the closer it gets to the waters of East Pole Island, the greater the possibility that the Third Mobile Fleet will be exposed.
Sure enough, in the afternoon of the next day, a Krull destroyer discovered a peripheral reconnaissance destroyer squadron of the Third Mobile Fleet.
Although the Krull destroyer was quickly sunk, it successfully sent a telegram before it sank!
Hengmanzi's fleet was discovered on the side and rear. Although it was only a destroyer squadron consisting of only a few destroyers, this still made the senior generals of the Krul Kingdom Navy very vigilant!
Begin to dispatch more reconnaissance ships to this sea area for reconnaissance.
This time, the traces of the Third Mobile Fleet were completely exposed!
At the same time, the Third Mobile Fleet also released radio silence and proactively contacted the Joint Landing Fleet to inform them that their position may have been exposed.
Admiral Chen Fengting, who has served as Commander of the Mobile Fleet, Commander of the First Fleet, Minister of Naval Staff, Minister of Military Affairs, and currently Commander of the Joint Landing Fleet, after receiving the telegram from the Third Mobile Fleet, he only considered it for five minutes before ordering the three men under his command.
The large mobile fleet began to make emergency maneuvers, moving closer to the third mobile fleet, and at the same time, let the third mobile fleet move closer to them.
And as they moved closer to each other, they actually moved closer to the main fleet of the Krul Kingdom Navy at the same time.
Because the main force of Krul Kingdom’s naval fleet is in the middle!
