Mystery makes me strong

Chapter 2741 A Battle

But it doesn’t matter.

Zhang Meng was too lazy to worry about so many things. He discovered several dissatisfied senior talents from this remote command.

Among the destroyer captains, at least five of them were traitors.

In fact, they are basically at the manager level, and the worst is deputy manager.

There was no need to go to the battlefield.

The problem is, once the big moneybag came, they seemed to have escaped from their original status, but suddenly they realized that they were still the same as before!
They haven't changed.

This mentality made them split apart!
But Zhang Meng was also thinking that these few people alone were not enough to break the situation in the battlefield world.

After all, what truly controls this battlefield world is the huge AI intelligent system.

In a sense, this is much more difficult than the previous two doomsday worlds.

Whether it is fog or extreme cold, there is no consciousness.

They would become difficult, but they could not keep up with his powerful speed.

But in this world, he becomes stronger too slowly.

So slow that a bowl of medicine from his wife could paralyze him.

Zhang Meng naturally didn't know that this was some ingredient added by some god. He thought it was a high-end medicine that his wife Ai Li found in a local pharmacy.

This made him even more in awe of the world.

What a terrible world this is!
So he had a headache.

AI intelligence, human heart, how to find the breakthrough point?

Where is the weak point of the battlefield world?
He thought so, and then his eyes turned to the surveillance screen again.

At this moment, a large fleet was displayed on the screen.

That was a fleet led by another company that was about to engage his fleet.

The other party is Party A and he is Party B.

Yes, this time the big sponsors contributed too much, and several small and medium-sized companies joined together to perform on the battlefield.

After the transport battle is over, it’s time for a decisive battle at sea!

……

General William, commander of the Ocean Fleet, was standing on the bridge of an aircraft carrier.

His eyes revealed confidence and pride.

Of course he was proud, because he was already at the same level as Zhang Meng.

Even if he encounters a fatal threat, a drone or a titanium cage will drop from the sky to rescue him.

Basically he won't be beaten to death.

And the place where he is is also a safe zone.

For example, the aircraft carrier he is on will be divided into an unattackable zone during combat.

This is easy to do, just put a little effort into weapon identification.

Taking into account the intelligence level of the big money sponsor, they used equipment close to that used in World War II that Wen Rensheng knew about, but in fact, they were all equipped with intelligent recognition modules.

Whether or not you can fire a gun can be controlled by AI.

"General, we are about to enter the activity area where Party B's submarines may appear." A staff officer reported.

General William nodded, and he was suddenly a little excited.

He can't wait to show off his superb tactical skills!
He wanted to show the audience that he was fully qualified to get shares in the company.

Seeing this guy, Zhang Meng couldn't help but sigh.

This is my enemy...

If someone is at the same level as me, even if I don’t cheat, I’m no match for him.

After all, General William had risen from nothing to the top, and he needed both strength and luck to climb to the top.

He is cheating. Although the two are at the same level, General William is definitely better in terms of intelligence, will, and even luck.

General William was not worried about the upcoming battle at this time.

His current fleet is the most powerful force in the ocean on this battlefield.

According to what was said before: "Nothing can stop them from moving forward."

"The big moneybags only want to see two things: either the opponent is defeated with overwhelming force."

"Or the opponent will strike back."

“I don’t like to see procrastination and a bitter victory in the end.”

Of course, this tragic victory refers to General William's fleet.

If Party B's fleet can achieve a tragic victory, the big money sponsor will also be satisfied.

As for General William, he certainly couldn't let that happen.

The aircraft carriers in front of him were six heavy aircraft carriers with a total of 480 carrier-based aircraft, including 180 dive bombers, 200 fighters, and 100 torpedo attack aircraft.

He deliberately brought more fighter jets because he knew that as long as he could gain air superiority, he could slowly attack the enemy.

In addition, there are 4 battleships, 9 heavy cruisers, 16 light cruisers, 24 destroyers, and more than 30 logistics supply ships.

In addition, there are technological advantages, such as radio decryption advantages, reconnaissance aircraft advantages, radar advantages...

It is definitely a large and powerful fleet with both reconnaissance, defense and offense capabilities.

He couldn't figure out how he could lose.

In fact, from Zhang Meng's perspective, he didn't know how to win.

He would be very satisfied if he could achieve a draw or achieve some results.

After all, in such a big scene, even if he has a super physique, it would be useless if he personally goes on the field.

At most he could be an ace pilot with strong combat capabilities, but he couldn't possibly deal with so many planes.

In comparison, Party B has only two heavy aircraft carriers and two medium-sized aircraft carriers, with a total of 200 carrier-based aircraft, which is more than half less.

The disparity in the number of fighter jets is too great.

What's even more frustrating is that the performance of our fighter jets is still lagging behind.

The only advantage is the range.

But if we can't defeat them, this range advantage is a waste.

At most it can delay death.

"How do we win?"

Zhang Meng sighed.

He watched as the enemy warships cut through the waves and headed towards his fleet's base.

Of course, this picture only allowed him to see the strength of the enemy fleet, but he could not see its exact location.

In fact, the battlefield host was already cheating him.

After all, this information is very valuable.

If you don't give any, it will be easy to be defeated in one wave.

The sponsor didn't seem happy either.

At least they can fight each other for a few rounds before being crushed to death by the other party.

You can't be so confused that you don't even know who your opponent is, otherwise you will be blown up.

Of course, this actually happens frequently on the real battlefield.

Zhang Meng knew that he had been given some care, but it was only a slight bias in intelligence.

But it does not involve direct combat.

For example, there is no information about the enemy's location, the enemy's travel speed, or where the enemy will arrive in a few days.

He just saw the enemy's endless fleet.

And he has a fatal flaw.

The factory is too poor and cannot repair damaged warships as fast as the other side.

This means that even if a tragic victory is achieved, if the enemy's warships are only damaged instead of sunk, they can recover in a very short time.

Then they will lose the second and third time.

"If we want to increase the speed of repair, we have to increase the production of industrial raw materials."

"That requires me to attack."

"After the attack, the battlefield host will directly airdrop resources to me."

Then he saw General William issued an order: "All ships should be alert and attack immediately if the enemy is found."

The speed of Fleet A did not slow down.

They are like a group of giant beasts on the sea, fearlessly rushing towards unknown dangers.

……

And at this time.

Looking at her husband's sad face.

Ai Li couldn't help but said, "Why not just give up?"

"No, if we give up, our home will be abandoned as well."

"Don't think that you can see the operation of the company clearly just because you can handle a few things for me."

"Let me tell you, this is a cold and brutal process. If I'm not strong enough and offend my sponsor, the only outcome will be demotion." Of course Zhang Meng couldn't give up.

That is courting death.

But he suddenly had an idea and decided to use an asymmetric tactic.

Ellie reminded him.

So he quickly started a series of operations.

Only he can do these operations.

It is impossible for Party A to have an absolute advantage.

"Captain XX, you don't want to..."

"First Officer XX, you don't want to..."

After several orders were conveyed one by one.

Ten submarines accepted an unspeakable top-secret mission.

...that night.

The battle broke out without warning.

The ten submarines of Party B began a fierce assault.

The host once again sided with Zhang Meng.

After all, we need to give him some opportunities to increase his strength, but at the same time, it needs to be reasonable and not noticeable to his sponsors.

Of course, the easiest way is to cheat mentally.

After all, everyone knows that the gap between lazy people and hardworking people is greater than the gap between pigs and humans.

During the same twenty years, the industry was still in a very bad state.

But the latter can completely crush the former, increasing several times or even more than ten times every year.

Now the host is giving Zhang Meng some mental stimulation.

When Zhang Meng began to encourage the captains, they received many promises.

Of course, Zhang Meng would not take it seriously unless the other party could save his life from death.

These ten submarines were arranged on the route that Party A's large fleet must pass.

And when the other party came here, it was night.

There are also reefs nearby that can reflect sound waves and confuse stationary submarines.

This is totally the right time and place.

Of course, the cheat was not very big, at least it did not allow the aircraft carrier to pass directly through the attack range of the submarine.

Otherwise, the cheating would be too obvious, and the sponsor would feel uncomfortable and fake!

In a word, whoever pays is the boss, no room for negotiation!
So the submarine must still take the risk to attack.

The first hurdle is the destroyer defense circle, followed by the cruisers, and finally the battleships.

After the aircraft carrier formation arrived, the submarines launched an attack without waiting too long.

If no action is taken, Fleet A will pass by them immediately.

It is impossible for submarines to catch up with surface ships, except for merchant ships and troop transports.

They began to move towards the aircraft carrier's defense circle from underwater.

Torpedoes have a limited range, and because of speed and angle, if you want to hit an aircraft carrier, you have to be as close as possible.

And it must break through the outer defense circle to launch.

Otherwise, there is no point in launching it.

Firstly, destroyers and light cruisers are very fast and occupy the best defensive positions around aircraft carriers, thus blocking gunshot holes.

The speed of an aircraft carrier is also very high, 34 knots, far exceeding that of a submarine. As long as the distance is long enough, it can avoid torpedoes by maneuvering.

Only four out of ten ships broke through the defense circle of Fleet A.

The other six were spotted by destroyers.

The next step was to drop flares heavily, lighting up the sky above the battlefield to make it easier for the financiers to see.

"Humph, even if we don't fire cannons or drop depth charges, we have to fire flares first." Zhang Meng sneered.

Although this is helpful for capturing submarines, it is actually not necessary to fire flares first.

Because the submarine is already underwater.

Captured primarily by sonar.

Firing flares would expose the position of the aircraft carrier!
This is a fatal weakness that goes against military science and is created in order to attract the attention of the sponsors!

Of course, the six submarines that failed to break through were then hit by depth charges and main gun fire.

Three of them died on the spot.

Three others were also damaged.

They had no choice but to surface and launch a forced water assault to attract the enemy and allow the submarine that had successfully penetrated to launch a beautiful attack.

As expected, the submarine floating on the surface attracted a lot of artillery fire, as well as the attention of observers and sonar operators.

The other four submarines that broke through the defense circle brought terrible consequences.

They immediately launched the secret weapon prepared by Zhang Meng.

Right underwater, where the Mai people can't see.

Each torpedo approached the target silently like a ghost in the deep sea.

Simply put, it is carbon-based guidance.

When used for the first time, this is a dimensionality reduction attack, and it kills at first sight.

Inherent thinking made the fleet commander of Fleet A dodge according to the original pattern.

this is normal.

Because the fleet's action to avoid torpedoes is a systematic action that has been trained thousands of times and cannot be changed just because you want to.

It is not enough for the commander to just snap his fingers and order the helmsman to turn the rudder depending on the angle the torpedo is coming from and where to hide.

It must be done according to a fixed routine to be effective.

When the sonar operator of Fleet A discovered the abnormality, he immediately issued a warning.

They are still very reliable, after all, they are all selected elites.

We cannot make mistakes in this area, otherwise it will greatly affect the appetite of the financial sponsors.

"Torpedo attack! Multiple large torpedoes are approaching!" A warning sounded in the fleet.

The whistle was blasting like crazy.

The sailors had already put on their life jackets and were prepared for impact.

The aircraft carrier began to maneuver on a large scale in an attempt to avoid the torpedo.

Some of the destroyers had just lost their defensive positions due to the attack on the surface submarines, and now they were rushing over at high speed to block the guns for the aircraft carrier!
The same was true for the battleships, which also began to block the guns.

To be honest, this torpedo is not very fast.

The sonar operator discovered it early enough.

Under normal circumstances, even if a torpedo strikes too suddenly, the hit rate is not high and it can be avoided by large-scale maneuvers.

However, this time, the torpedo actually first came from underwater, bypassing the destroyers, battleships, and cruisers that were blocking the gun muzzle at a deeper depth, and then began to float slightly, reaching below the waterline of the aircraft carrier.

"Oh my God, they can even float up and turn on their own initiative!" After the sonar operator observed, his words surprised everyone!

"impossible!"

"Is it caused by ocean currents?" the captain asked in surprise.

"No, it should be carbon-based guidance!" The sonar operator saw the truth about the torpedo from the torpedo trajectory displayed by the sonar instrument!

"Speak human language!" the captain cursed.

"I can't say!" said the sonar operator aggrievedly.

The captain understood that the financial sponsor must not be informed.

"What, carbon-based guidance, crazy Party B!" General William said angrily.

This is such a cheat!
He really wanted to kick the other general manager's ass!
Is this a trick that humans came up with?

In this way, even if the aircraft carrier tried its best to maneuver, it could still be flexibly hit by the enemy.

In fact, the torpedo was not very fast.

At least with Fleet A's defense system, they had enough time to react.

If it was a normal torpedo, they could easily block it through maneuvers and the protection of destroyers.

But that’s not the case now.

The enemy's torpedoes clearly cut into the arc of their aircraft carrier's maneuvering.

The traverse intersects the great circle arc.

Of course, it is not easy to do this in the dark.

After all, the human brain is not a computer and needs to calculate many variables.

So four submarines rushed in and fired a total of eight carbon-based torpedoes.

Only three successfully hit the target.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of explosions sounded on the sea.

The side of an aircraft carrier was blown open by a huge explosion, and flames and thick smoke rose into the sky.

"The cabin is flooded!"

"Fill with water immediately to balance it!"

"No, we have to abandon the aircraft carrier!"

"Damn Party B, they cheated, my aircraft carrier, my plane!" General William shouted in pain.

At the same time, three brave destroyers were also hit directly.

Their small bodies struggled for a few times on the sea surface, and then slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

Two more torpedoes missed and disappeared into the vast ocean, bringing warmth to the sharks.

Then, another aircraft carrier was hit by a torpedo.

Three aircraft carriers were hit by three torpedoes.

The key is that they are still big.

The warhead is heavy.

This directly renders damage control operations useless.

When Wen Rensheng saw it to the end, he felt it was a rip-off.

This is too much cheating.

According to his calculations, it would be great if he could hit one at most.

This thing sounds scary, but it's actually too demanding.

In a short period of time, you have to overcome psychological problems and calculate intensively.

At the same time, you need to adjust the depth, speed, direction, and observe the target position.

That is to say, the aircraft carrier target is large enough, otherwise it would be difficult to hit.
