Chapter 1301 The Curtain Pulled Down

Above the sea, the exchange of fire between the enemy and our steel fleets continued.

Although Yuan Xi was facing an opponent of this scale for the first time, his five-star top talent was there. After a successful attack, Yuan Xi, who gradually mastered the rhythm of the battle, could be said to be more stable.

In the previous round of indiscriminate bombing, the battleship suffered too many attacks, and various Europa fleets with varying degrees of damage appeared. As the battle progressed, various problems were constantly exposed.

Gradually, the entire fleet has completely fallen into the disadvantage.

Now that Yuan Xi, who has gradually gained the upper hand, is absolutely impossible to give the opponent a chance to come back!

Led by the flagship Yangtze River, the main fleet, which had been carrying out long-range artillery bombardment, began to close in.

At the same time, apart from the individual frigates, a large number of destroyers moved quickly with their speed, and vaguely spread an invisible encircling net.

Lal Chirac, who was aware of his situation at the moment, turned pale.

In these few rounds, he has clearly realized that the opponent he is facing at this time will not give him any chance to come back.

In the current situation, his defeat seems to be a foregone conclusion.

"I haven't been able to wait for an opportunity to go out for so many years, and I just went out, is that so?"

Thinking of Lal Chirac here, a miserable smile appeared on his face.

However, he did not intend to be slaughtered like this!

"Go on the order, and the entire fleet will break through to the east!"

As soon as the Europa fleet moved, the outer destroyer fleet immediately followed.

At this moment, the advantage of the destroyer's speed can be said to be the greatest manifestation.

After wading through the minefields and suffering continuous baptism of torpedoes and shelling, the destroyers of the Europa Fleet have long been overwhelmed, and it is difficult to pose a threat to the destroyers of the Yangtze River Fleet.

After losing the restraint, they acted at this moment, which can be said to be more reckless.

A sea siege net has always enveloped the Europa fleet, making it difficult for them to escape.

There is no doubt that by this moment, the suspense of this battle has been killed.

However, the tenacity of the Europa fleet still exceeded Yuan Xi's expectations. He originally thought that the battle could end earlier, but he did not expect that it took him a lot of time unexpectedly.

In the roar of the cannon, the Charlemagne, which was slowly sinking in the distance, drew the curtain for this naval battle.

But what I still have to mention is that this battleship, which is obviously named after Charlie Krumbell himself, has indeed cost a lot of money, and it is really quite resistant. How many shells were dropped.

Now back to the topic, the only way to deal with those Europa soldiers who fell into the water was to shoot them.

The mission of the Yangtze Fleet was to surprise the enemy's rear, and there was no plan to return to it. Obviously, there was no time to capture them.

Moreover, according to the current situation, capturing these enemy soldiers will not only increase their risk, but also increase the resource consumption on the ship.

However, when it comes to resource consumption, Yuan Xi, who was on the Yangtze River, naturally thought of the supply ship on the opposite side.

Just like when their fleet went on an expedition, they had to bring supply ships to supply resources. According to the size of the opponent's fleet, there must be supply ships.

As for the location of the supply ships, nine out of ten they were behind the main fleet.

After all, battles may break out on the main fleet at any time, and it would be too much of a hindrance to bring supply ships. It is a safer way to let the main fleet and the supply fleet travel for a few days and maintain a distance.

At least that's what the Yangtze Fleet today does.

As his thoughts flew around, Yuan Xixian ordered someone to confirm the damage to his fleet.

After spending a lot of time, a statistical report was finally delivered to Yuan Xi.

Seven destroyers sank, five destroyers were more seriously damaged, and the rest were basically all slightly injured.

On the battleship side, the main guns of two battleships were damaged by enemy shelling, one was severely damaged in armor, and three were moderately damaged...

It is enough to see how tenacious the resistance of the Europa fleet is.

After exhaling a long breath, Yuan Xi spoke slowly after arranging his thoughts...

"Find the nearest island to dock, all the severely damaged warships will dock, stay on the island, and wait for the rescue of the rear supply ships. The other warships will continue to advance with me to search for the location of the enemy's supply fleet!"

At sea, what is a supply ship? That's a treasure trove full of supplies! No matter what the consideration was, Yuan Xi had absolutely no reason to let it go.

Simply judging the position of the Europa fleet at that time, Yuan Xi led the Yangtze River fleet under his command and launched a search directly in the opposite direction.

It's definitely not a particularly difficult thing to do.

Bringing the supply ship directly is too much of a hindrance, but in order to facilitate supply, the supply fleet will never be too far away from the main fleet.

And this is indeed the case. After only three days, the supply fleet of the Europa fleet appeared within Yuan Xi's field of vision.

The number of the other's supply ships has reached eight, and there are ten frigates escorting them around.

However, this battle is obviously impossible to pose a threat to the Yangtze Fleet.

In this era, the top speed of a supply ship full of resources is estimated to hover around 20 knots. With this speed, it is impossible to escape.

Against their main fleet, they basically only have to be slaughtered.

The battle started quickly and ended faster. All ten frigates were sunk, all supply ships were captured, and the entire eight ships' fuel, food and military supplies fell into the hands of the Yangtze Fleet.

This is not a big gain, it is big enough to make the crew cheer!

Although they originally had six supply ships to transport supplies, they were quite sufficient.

But considering the scale of the expedition, the daily consumption of each soldier still has to be controlled.

However, now that the resources of these eight ships have been harvested, coupled with the victory of the previous naval battle, as the highest commander of the Yangtze River Fleet, Yuan Xi is also quite enlightened and said that it is time to celebrate.

To put it bluntly, sailing is boring. Going out to sea for a long time will often only be boring in the end. A person's spirit, in this state for a long time, will accumulate pressure invisibly.

Therefore, it is also necessary to let the soldiers under his command relax and vent appropriately.

But there is nothing fun at sea, at most it is to let the soldiers eat and drink, but this is enough.

The cheers of the navy soldiers kept coming from outside. Yuan Xi himself did not get involved. At this time, he was sitting in his captain's room, eating the canned fruit in his hand while looking at the portion in front of him. nautical chart.

This chart was found from the supply ship captured by them. Through this, he has now completely confirmed the location of the enemy coastal city!
