#1405 Fleet Vertical and Horizontal
With the prolongation of the battle time, the Fusang fleet, which gradually spread out its formation, wanted to fight with them. However, at this point, after receiving reports from the battleships, Wang Sheng did not intend to continue to accompany him, and directly An order to retreat was given.
As a special fleet that was determined to fight lightning strikes from the beginning, Luo Ji naturally wanted to strengthen and upgrade those battleships before sending them out.
In addition to updating the equipment and devices of the battleship, strengthening this part is mainly on the torpedo launcher!
He installed two quadruple torpedo launchers on each destroyer, which increased the firepower of lightning strikes in the most direct way.
Counting the spare torpedoes, the number of attacks can naturally be greatly increased after they are disassembled and used.
However, even so, the number of torpedoes is very limited.
Wang Sheng didn't plan to use the small guns of the destroyer to continue fighting with the enemy after the torpedoes were used up.
At this time, it is natural to withdraw a little bit.
At the same time, it is a pity that in this late-night sea area, you can't see your fingers, even a water lizard warrior can't bear to dive, the risk is too high.
Otherwise, Wang Sheng would like to give the opposite side a luxurious combination package of mines and torpedoes!
With the speed advantage of the small fleet, the opponent with several battleships could not catch up with him at all. Wang Sheng left quickly, and rushed to join the supply ship at the rear overnight.
The location where they were at this time was a small, uninhabited archipelago.
The terrain is a little complicated, and it may be difficult for large warships to come in. It is a pretty good hiding place.
At this moment, Wang Sheng's lightning strike fleet is resting here.
Compared with the previous few times when they were almost able to retreat completely, in the battle last night, due to the change in the style of play and the prolongation of the fighting time, it was inevitable for them to suffer losses.
At that distance, it was unavoidable not to leave immediately, and to suffer a few shellings. It has been confirmed that nine destroyers were slightly damaged and three destroyers were moderately damaged. Fortunately, in the night environment, The opponent was not lucky enough to sink them directly.
Going on an expedition, the requirements should not be too high. The goblin engineers who went on the expedition with the fleet are currently carrying out emergency repairs on their damaged warships. A few destroyers with mild damage can be done quickly, but those with moderate damage Three ships, obviously need more time, looking at this situation, they have to calm down for a while.
However, Wang Sheng was able to remain calm. Last night, the commander-in-chief of the Fusang Fleet, who was attacked by the lightning fleet at night, was completely unable to calm down...
After the battle last night, he confirmed the battle damage of the fleet almost overnight. In the face of such a lightning strike, their Fuso fleet sank six destroyers in a chaotic situation, and eleven destroyers were moderately damaged, of which the good died. Immortal, there was a torpedo that accidentally passed through the gap between the peripheral battleships, and hit the bow of a battleship of their Fusang Fleet!
Of course, according to the thickness of the battleship's armor, if it hits the bow, a torpedo will not sink it, but damage is inevitable.
Now, in the Fuso fleet under his command, more than a dozen warships are facing the situation of having to return to the port for maintenance.
During this period, in order to avoid unexpected situations, he would definitely need to call out some more battleships to escort him.
From where their Fusang fleet is now, to returning to the port closest to them, it takes about half a month. I'm afraid I won't be able to come out for two or three months.
During this period of time, the number of battleships in his fleet will drop significantly, and if they are attacked again, life will be difficult.
At the same time, the latest report has also been sent to the capital, and I don't know how His Majesty the Emperor will deal with him after learning about the situation here...
Thinking of this, his entire face became pale.
During this period, on the other side, after a period of rest, the two Europa players quickly merged their fleets and acted collectively.
In this sea area, which should be considered a medium-to-small area, two Europa players, two Fuso players, and a Gaul player, with five large fleets, it is too easy to encounter them at sea.
In just one face-to-face, a naval battle started with the roar of artillery fire, and the battleships on both sides began to frantically pour out their firepower from an exaggerated distance!
The Europa side, as a two-in-one fleet, obviously gained an advantage in the number of battleships, and the tyrannical artillery firepower, just one encounter, constituted a clear suppression of the opposing Gallic fleet.
In the current situation, the Europa fleet has a rare opportunity to be singled out on the opposite side, so it is natural to hurry up and pursue the victory.
The raging firepower of the battleship's main guns quickly achieved results, successfully sinking a destroyer of the Gallic fleet, which made a good start to the naval battle.
The disadvantaged Gallic fleet did not dare to fight with it, and fought and retreated all the way. In the case of fighting in the daytime, its own hard power is still quite considerable. The Gallic fleet will not be defeated by Europa's combined fleet in a short time. exterminate.
This battle fell into a short stalemate, and then as time passed, a round of naval artillery strikes swept in from a distance, adding more variables to this battle! The Fusang fleet, which arrived late, rushed into the battlefield while pouring out its firepower at this moment!
At this moment, the Europa Combined Fleet, which is in high spirits, will not be scared off by this battle.
After all, the naval combat power of these two Europa players is actually not weak, but before the foreign coalition fleet, it has always been three-on-two. After being suppressed for so many years, the gap will inevitably widen.
And now, after a period of rest and recuperation, with this wave of morale, two-on-two, they may not be afraid of the opposite!
The rare comeback situation has caused the soldiers of the Europa Combined Fleet to fall into a state of excitement. They have been suppressed for too long. This wave finally allowed them to vent the suffocation in their chests! However, the commanders of the two fleets did not get hot-headed because of this advantage, and they were still in a calm state.
If you think about it, if you don't have any ability, according to the situation here, the Europa side may have collapsed long ago.
"Two more waves, and retreat before the third fleet on the opposite side arrives!"
This is probably what they are thinking now. The battle situation in this sea area has finally improved a little. Don't make waves, just close when you see it, that's the kingly way!
