I am the emperor in Nanyang, I am the ultimate winner
Chapter 86 Sea Battle (4)
At this time, the radar built on the small island near Yan State played a crucial role.
A sharp and piercing alarm suddenly sounded from a radar station on an island.
The staff at the radar station did not dare to delay and immediately reported the emergency to their superiors.
Air Force Minister Zheng Siyuan quickly received the news and decisively issued an order: "Order all fighter planes to take off. The primary goal is to destroy their air defense system."
"After the strike, return to the base immediately to replenish ammunition and fuel, and then cooperate with the fleet to launch a second round of strikes."
"understand!"
Soon, more than 500 combat aircraft began to take off in an orderly manner.
They include various types of aircraft such as fighters, bombers, attack aircraft and torpedo bombers.
At this moment, a young pilot was watching everything around him nervously.
Seeing that other fighter planes had taken off one after another, he was also anxiously waiting for the take-off order.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself, but he couldn't suppress the tension in his heart.
He lit a cigarette with trembling hands, muttering to himself: "I'm so nervous..."
At this moment, an experienced pilot next to him noticed his uneasiness and comforted him with a smile: "Relax, don't be too nervous."
"Back then, I was just like you. I was also filled with nervousness and fear during my first actual combat."
"However, as time goes by, you will slowly get used to this tension and even start to like the atmosphere of this battle."
"Well, thank you." The young pilot nodded gratefully and tried to calm himself down.
He knew that as a soldier, he must overcome his inner fear and face the enemy bravely.
Soon, all the combat aircraft were circling in formation.
These pilots included veterans who had participated in actual combat and new recruits who were participating in combat for the first time.
Among them, those soldiers who were participating in combat for the first time seemed very nervous.
But they still firmly followed the commander's orders and flew towards the direction of the Three Kingdoms Joint Fleet.
Less than an hour later, they quickly arrived in the airspace near the Tripartite Combined Fleet.
The formation commander gave the order: "Our first priority is to destroy the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower. Let me emphasize again that we must destroy the anti-aircraft firepower."
"Roger that!"
"Roger that!"
Admiral Alexander Samuel Winston, commander of the Triple Fleet, witnessed all this through a telescope.
He immediately ordered: "Carrier-based aircraft take off immediately to intercept, and all air defense firepower must go all out to intercept the enemy."
"As you command, Marshal."
The anti-aircraft firepower of all warships of the Three Kingdoms' Joint Fleet was fully opened. The dense anti-aircraft artillery fire formed a fire net in the air, blocking the attack of the Yan Kingdom's fighter planes like an indestructible wall.
The shells whizzed through the air, making deafening explosions, as if they were going to tear the entire sky apart.
However, the Yan State's fighter planes did not retreat. They flexibly shuttled between the barrage of bullets, constantly changing their flight trajectories to avoid enemy attacks.
The first to launch the attack were the Yan State's attack aircraft formation, which rushed towards the enemy ships like arrows.
When approaching the target, the attack aircraft quickly released large-caliber rockets, which trailed long tail flames.
Like meteors streaking across the sky, they accurately hit several enemy ships.
Suddenly, thick smoke billowed out of the enemy ship that was hit, and flames shot up into the sky. The scene was extremely spectacular.
Despite facing the enemy's intensive anti-aircraft firepower, Yan Country's fighter planes continued to charge forward fearlessly.
When the bombers arrived over the Tripartite Combined Fleet, they began dropping heavy aerial bombs.
Countless aerial bombs poured down like raindrops, smashing hard into the enemy ships.
With loud bangs, the officers and soldiers on the enemy ships were blown to pieces, the wreckage was splashed everywhere, and the sea surface was dyed red with blood.
At this moment, from the five aircraft carriers of the Three Kingdoms' Joint Fleet, carrier-based aircraft took off like locusts and attacked the Yan Kingdom's fighter formation in an overwhelming manner.
Yan Country had to allocate some of its fighter jets to intercept these incoming carrier-based aircraft.
However, the performance of Yan Country's fighter jets far exceeds that of the carrier-based aircraft of the Three Kingdoms Combined Fleet.
In just one encounter, a large number of carrier-based aircraft were ruthlessly shot down.
They burn and explode in the air, as brilliant as fireworks, but this is a reflection of the cruelty of war.
At the same time, Yan Country's torpedo bombers began to attack the surface fleet.
They aimed at the target and dropped torpedoes accurately, trying to disrupt the formation of the Three Kingdoms Combined Fleet.
With loud bangs, huge waves were raised on the sea and warships suffered severe damage.
However, the torpedo bomber fleet also paid a heavy price.
Because they had to fly low to drop their torpedoes, they became a prime target for enemy anti-aircraft fire.
Near the sea, ten Yan State submarines were quietly lurking underwater, waiting for the best time to attack.
They knew very well that exposing themselves too early would only make the enemy defensive.
Therefore, they waited patiently, ready to deal a fatal blow to the enemy at the critical moment.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the battle continued fiercely.
In this life-and-death struggle, every minute seems especially long.
Finally, the first wave of attacks ended, but the Yan State's fighter fleet did not linger in the battle. They obeyed the commander's orders and immediately chose to return for resupply.
This attack dealt a heavy blow to the combined fleet of the three nations.
According to statistics, nearly half of their carrier-based aircraft were lost, a large amount of anti-aircraft firepower was destroyed, and more than 20 warships were lost.
However, Yan Country's fighter fleet also paid a heavy price: no bombers were lost, thirty-five fighters were lost, and sixteen attack aircraft were lost.
The torpedo bombers suffered the heaviest losses, totaling more than seventy aircraft.
Forty-five pilots were killed or missing, and the rest were captured by the Tripartite Fleet.
Despite the heavy losses, the joint fleet of the three countries quickly adjusted its status and continued to advance towards the waters of Yan State with determination.
At the same time, warships of various countries could only be photographed from a long distance. Due to the long distance, the picture was blurry and it was impossible to capture clear details.
More importantly, these warships all flew the flags of neutral countries to avoid being involved in the war.
Navy Minister Feng Ziqi was standing on the deck of the Fengyun battleship, holding a telescope in his hand and staring into the distance.
He felt a sense of relief when he saw Party B's fighter planes returning, but he also noticed that some of the fighter planes were emitting thick black smoke, and some were even burning flames.
Obviously, these severely damaged fighters will not be able to participate in the next battle.
At this moment, an officer hurried over, saluted Feng Ziqi and reported: "Report to the Minister, the joint fleet of the three countries is coming towards us and is expected to arrive within three hours."
Feng Ziqi frowned slightly and his expression became serious.
He knew that the naval battle was about to enter a critical stage and that he had to respond quickly.
He put down the telescope, turned around and gave orders to the staff around him: "Notify the captains of each ship to immediately adjust the fleet formation and prepare for defense."
"At the same time, we will maintain close contact with the Air Force Command to ensure that air support is in place in a timely manner."
"In addition, an encrypted telegram was sent to the submarine forces, asking them to be prepared for surprise attacks at any time."
The staff officers nodded to show that they understood and quickly passed the order down.
The officers and soldiers on the battleship were busy in a tense and orderly manner, adjusting gun positions, checking weapons and equipment, strengthening lookouts and other tasks were carried out in an orderly manner.
Feng Ziqi knew that the upcoming battle would be extremely fierce and both sides would go all out to fight for control of the sea.
