The purpose of establishing the East China Sea outpost is not to block the Penglai Army's fleet from Qinglan City. The quality of the opponent's battleships and soldiers is far from comparable to that of the Cangyun Empire, which is not good at naval warfare. But if all hopes are put aside,
It is not a good strategy to defend against landing.
Based on this situation, the Liu family formulated a tactical plan called the "A" plan, using the East China Sea outpost as a bait to attract the main force of the Penglai Army to the target area, where the Cangyun Empire had never revealed
As a weapon, if it can weaken the opponent's number of warships, that is the best result. No matter how bad it is, it can greatly demoralize the enemy's army.
This is also the reason why all the ships deployed at the East China Sea outpost give priority to mobility, because the entire plan itself does not consider frontal combat, but a war of attrition that lures the enemy in depth, but this seems to be easy
The counter-strategy gave the Penglai army, which had always been domineering at sea, a clue.
Even though Katori had already planned in her mind that her fleet would encounter the unusual situation of the Sogyun Empire's scout team as soon as it crossed into enemy waters, but because of the strength of her own fleet and her inherent understanding of the Sogyun Empire's poor naval combat skills, she simply could not do so.
She doesn't bother to make changes in deployment. In her opinion, let alone the Cangyun Empire, any force in the East China Sea can only be crushed by the Penglai Army in naval battles. Any strategy will be a useless struggle in the face of absolute strength.
The unexpected siege of the kamikaze squad did not affect Katori's good mood, and he continued to command the huge fleet to move forward according to the established route. The powerful energy cannon only fired a few symbolic volleys, which made Li Mu's first
The second line of defense did not dare to shrink further, and it took three or four small boats to finally annihilate the kamikaze squad.
"Report, the enemy's main force has been found ten nautical miles east."
The soldiers in charge of the lookout quickly came to report to Ye Jin, but in fact, Li Mu and the others could already see a large black mass of Penglai Army warships in the distance with their naked eyes. The tall and mighty sea fortress was rolling towards their defense line.
There were no changes in the route due to the ambush of the leading troops, but the blue energy bombardments that continued to fall across the sky were enough to demonstrate their strength.
"Pass my order. The entire army will retreat. Keep the speed at ten knots. Observe the situation of the enemy's main force and report back at any time."
After arranging the follow-up plan, Ye Jin patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said, "How about it? It's your first time participating in a battle. Are you still a little unaccustomed to it? This battlefield with real swords and guns is different from the competition between you monks.
, nothing matters until then, either you die or I die."
"Brother Ye, no wonder everyone says that the army can temper a person. Many monks will join the army when they encounter bottlenecks and accumulate insights on the battlefield in order to make breakthroughs. I didn't understand it in the past, but now I completely understand. This war
The cruelty is far beyond what ordinary people can understand."
Witnessing the first confrontation between the two armies, watching the ship carrying fresh life disappear into nothing in an instant, it would be impossible for Li Mu not to have any waves in his heart. Those scout teams that were destroyed
There are comrades on the ship who are similar in age to me, or even a few years younger, but they have left their young lives on this sea forever in order to defend their homeland.
This kind of anger, grief, regret, and eyes-broken emotions are intertwined in Li Mu's heart, but Ye Jin's words are right. Tears cannot buy back the lives of their comrades. Each of them can only do their best to protect these dead people.
What your colleagues want to protect is the most important thing.
The warship under Li Mu crossed the waves and followed the other troops on the second line of defense towards the predetermined area. The Penglai fleet, which had been keeping a panoramic view of their movements, also increased its speed. Li Mu and the others saw
The seemingly unstructured retreat route made the generals of the Penglai Army naturally think that the opponent was being chased by their own artillery fire and fled in all directions. Every general wanted to gain more military glory in this battle. After all, once the Cangyun Empire was captured
, the territory of the Penglai Immortal Kingdom will be greatly expanded. When the time comes, they will be rewarded based on their merits, and each of them will have the opportunity to become a prince.
On the basis of not affecting the overall navigation video, the generals on these warships secretly ordered a quick pursuit in the hope of leaving more warships of the Cangyun Empire behind. However, these small actions were not reported to Katori on the main ship.
"General, the second line of defense and the remaining scout teams have converged and are heading to the designated location at a predetermined speed. The main force of the Penglai Army is about ten nautical miles away from them. The speed has increased slightly. They should be chasing our team."
Everyone in the outpost base is nervous. Their mission this time will determine the safety of Qinglan City and even the Cangyun Empire to a certain extent. The emergence of every new piece of information affects everyone in the base.
As time passed by, even Liu Qingling, a veteran on the battlefield, stood up and paced back and forth anxiously.
As the wind and waves gradually increased, the visibility on the sea gradually reduced to the point where it was almost invisible. A huge ship suddenly jumped out from the pouring rain. It was the huge warship of the Penglai Army.
The beast suddenly sent back the news that a large number of enemy troops had been discovered, and then four or five figures flew up from the warship. They were all strong men in the Infinite Realm. These monks who were traveling through the sea on their feet in the void quickly maximized their perception, and
The results of the investigation surprised them, and then they were ecstatic.
"Reporting that a large number of enemy troops were found in the archipelago ahead. It was initially confirmed to be an outpost set up by the opponent. Requesting further instructions."
A report made Katori, who had closed her eyes to relax, suddenly open her eyes. She didn't care about the scattered reconnaissance and resistance of the Cangyun Empire before, but an outpost established by the other party actually appeared in the sea far away from the land. This suddenly made the Horai
The female military goddess became interested.
"It's interesting. We know that naval warfare is not our strong point, and the only thing we can rely on is land supply lines, but we still spend our efforts to establish outposts. What is the purpose of this? If we want to consume our power head-on, we underestimate our Penglai fleet.
Well, even if all the warships from the east of Cangyun are sent, it is impossible to stop us, let alone a small outpost."
"No, Qinglan City is the territory of their Eastern Military Region. The old guys from the Liu family are average in strength, but they are really good at marching and fighting. It is impossible to make such a stupid mistake. They probably left some ambush. It's a pity.
, in the face of absolute crushing power, no matter how many ambushes you try, it will be empty talk, this time I will destroy your entire East China Sea Fleet."
Katori's mind was spinning, and she had imagined various possible scenarios. Unfortunately, all her judgments were based on the intelligence of the Cangyun Empire, the inside information provided by "Xue", and the inside story of Huangfu Yi's betrayal, but Liu Qingling's
The weapon prepared for the first time is a trump card that the Liu family has developed for many years, and only a few people in the entire empire know about it.
