Warlords: Rise of the System

Chapter 239: The Great Battle at Sea 3

The joint fleet composed of bandits and multinational coalition forces suffered a sudden and heavy blow.

However, due to its huge size and large number of warships, although the casualties appeared to be extremely heavy on the surface, in fact more than half of the warships still survived.

In this confrontation, three of the huge aircraft carriers were blown to the bottom of the sea.

In addition, four or five other aircraft carriers suffered severe damage, with most of the carrier-based aircraft on board destroyed and countless shocking holes blown out on the decks, so that they completely lost the ability to take off and land aircraft in the short term.

The heaviest losses were suffered by the small warships, with more than a hundred of them being ruthlessly sunk.

Forty or fifty medium-sized warships were also sunk in the sea.

Although only two large warships were sunk, five or six were still seriously damaged, and the situation was not optimistic.

According to incomplete statistics, the attack caused more than two hundred warships to be sunk or damaged. The scene was as tragic as the end of the world.

However, despite the apparent heavy losses, these damaged warships actually accounted for only about one-fifth of the total combined fleet.

Although it has dealt them a certain degree of blow and can be said to have left them feeling somewhat "bruised and injured", it is far from causing them to completely collapse.

The National Salvation Army's mighty 4000 carrier-based aircraft attacked like a steel torrent, but what greeted them was the enemy's desperate defense line!

When these brave and fearless fighters completed their mission and set off for home, only more than 3600 carrier-based aircraft remained.

As many as 300 carrier-based aircraft unfortunately crashed in the enemy warships' impenetrable anti-aircraft fire that poured down like a rainstorm.

Faced with such a terrifying firepower network, these carrier-based aircraft didn't even have time to react before they exploded in mid-air, turning into dazzling fireballs.

Countless brave pilots also fell into the endless abyss along with their beloved vehicles, and their lives disappeared in an instant.

But it is somewhat comforting that more than 100 lucky people still successfully parachuted and landed on the rough sea.

Upon hearing the news, the National Salvation Army's rescue fleet headed for this dangerous sea area at full speed without hesitation, vowing to save every comrade in distress.

The severely damaged enemy combined fleet had no desire to continue fighting at this moment. They knew that continuing to move forward would only lead them into a deeper desperate situation.

As a result, this once invincible fleet quickly turned around and fled in panic from this sea filled with the breath of death.

Because this tragic defeat made them realize that the National Salvation Army, which was able to dispatch so many carrier-based aircraft at one time, must have an extremely powerful and well-trained naval force behind it.

Once these carrier-based aircraft return to the base, refuel and reload ammunition, they will surely come back and deal them a more fatal blow.

Therefore, retreat became their only and wisest option.

The bandits and the naval commander of the multinational coalition were so furious at this moment!

They originally thought they had a sure win, but reality gave them a resounding slap in the face.

According to reliable intelligence previously obtained, the so-called National Salvation Army only possesses 20 aircraft carriers, and the number of carrier-based aircraft is no more than 2000 at most.

However, when the National Salvation Army launched its bombing operation, they were horrified to find that the number of incoming carrier-based aircraft was by no means just over 2000.

According to preliminary estimates, there are at least three to four thousand aircraft!

What does this mean? This means that the size of the National Salvation Army's naval fleet is much larger than they expected, with at least 30 or more aircraft carriers!

Even faced with a National Salvation Army with more than 3000 carrier-based aircraft, the combined fleet of the bandits and the multinational coalition forces did not feel overly worried at first.

After all, numbers do not determine everything, and they still have a certain degree of confidence in their own strength.

But soon, they realized the seriousness of the problem - these carrier-based aircraft of the National Salvation Army had excellent performance and amazing combat effectiveness!

Only when they engaged in a one-on-one air battle with the carrier-based aircraft of the National Salvation Army did they deeply realize the huge gap between the two sides.

Our carrier-based aircraft were obviously inferior to the enemy in terms of speed, maneuverability and firepower, and were completely in a passive situation with no ability to fight back.

Every encounter seemed like a nightmare, making them terrified.

At this moment, the pirates and the naval commanders of the multi-national coalition on the flagship suddenly received a surprising message indirectly.

It turned out that the aircraft they had sent out to perform reconnaissance missions had successfully detected the exact location of the National Salvation Army's naval fleet!

This good news was like a bright light that pierced the night sky, instantly cheering up the bandits and the naval commanders of the multinational coalition who were originally solemn and worried.

A strong sense of self-confidence surged in their hearts.

Since the carrier-based aircraft of the National Salvation Army can come and bomb our own combined fleet, then conversely, can't our own carrier-based aircraft go and attack the fleet of the National Salvation Army?

At this time, Cameron Owen, commander-in-chief of the multinational coalition fleet, broke the silence first and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice.

"In my opinion, the intelligence we obtained before was probably a trap deliberately set for us by the National Salvation Army!

Although it may be true that their commander-in-chief did go to sea with the fleet to fight.

But information about the size of its fleet was obviously deliberately concealed from us.

You know, to have three or four thousand carrier-based aircraft, at least thirty or forty huge aircraft carriers are needed to carry such a large number of fighter jets!

However, according to the intelligence we currently have, the National Salvation Army only has twenty aircraft carriers!

This number is very different from our previous expectations.

There is no doubt that the National Salvation Army has deliberately concealed the actual number of its aircraft carriers.

Personally, I would make a bold guess that the commander-in-chief of the National Salvation Army personally leading the naval fleet to sail out to sea was most likely a carefully planned conspiracy.

Their real purpose may be to lure our combined fleet out and annihilate us in one fell swoop.

Although they have three or four thousand carrier-based aircraft, our warships are numerous and large in scale, and they cannot be easily defeated.

At this moment, we have successfully detected the specific location of their fleet, which also means that the critical moment for our carrier-based aircraft to show their prowess has arrived.

I decided to immediately dispatch our carrier-based aircraft forces to launch a fierce bombing on the National Salvation Army's fleet!

However, how should this bombing operation be implemented specifically?

Now is the time when we need to pool our wisdom and have in-depth discussions, and we must work together to develop a rigorous, thorough and feasible battle plan.

Only in this way can we ensure our ultimate victory in this fierce naval battle.

Everyone, if you have any good ideas, please feel free to share them and we can discuss them together.

We should strive to complete the bombing of their fleet by the time the National Salvation Army’s carrier-based aircraft launch their second bombing of us.”

A heated discussion on the command ship of the bandits and the multinational coalition forces regarding a bombing operation against the National Salvation Army fleet broke out...
