The atmosphere on the bridge was solemn.

General Chen pondered for a moment and said with a frown.

"Xiao Fang, don't act rashly. I think we should report this to our superiors before making a decision..."

"Mr. Chen, I'm not acting on impulse."

Fang Yu walked to the tactical display screen and pointed at the flashing light on it.

"Everyone, take a look at the performance parameters of this aircraft carrier."

"Four steam catapults, fully electronic combat system, phased array radar, anti-ship missile defense network..."

He turned around, his eyes determined.

"Besides mushroom bombs, what else in the world can threaten us now?"

"But..." Jiang Chaoyang wanted to say something.

Fang Yu interrupted him: "Uncle Jiang, please listen to me."

"The reason I made this decision, besides having full confidence in the combat capability of our aircraft carrier, is that I had to go."

"Think about it. If we turn a blind eye to the bald man's plea for help, and word gets out that the Dragon Navy didn't help and allowed their compatriots to be massacred by the Sakura Nation, what will international opinion say?"

General Chen frowned.

"That's a problem. The Americans will definitely seize on this and make a big fuss about it."

"That's right," Fang Yu continued, "We have always claimed that Frog Island is an inseparable part of Dragon Country."

"Now that Frog Island is in danger, we are standing by and doing nothing. Aren't we just slapping ourselves in the face?"

The officers on the bridge were whispering to each other.

Fang Yu’s words made sense, but Jiang Chaoyang was still worried.

"Xiao Fang," Jiang Chaoyang's voice choked with sobs, "This is our first aircraft carrier! Two years of hard work, countless sleepless nights..."

He walked to the porthole and looked at the deck in the sunset.

"You saw how excited the workers were when the aircraft carrier was launched. If something goes wrong with this aircraft carrier..."

Fang Yu laughed: "Uncle Jiang, you underestimate this aircraft carrier."

He walked to the battle sand table.

"Look at the layout of these air defense missiles, a triple air defense circle."

"For medium-range, we have the Changying-1, for short-range, we have the close-in weapon system, and for long-range, we have carrier-based aircraft patrols."

"Even the entire Eagle Empire fleet at its peak wouldn't be able to break through this line of defense."

"Besides," he pointed at the radar screen, "with this phased array radar, the enemy won't even stand a chance of getting close."

"From 200 kilometers away, even a mosquito-sized target cannot escape our sight."

General Chen nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"Indeed, I found these equipment incredible when I visited them. I just don't know how effective they will be in actual combat..."

"Isn't that perfect?" A gleam of light flashed in Fang Yu's eyes.

"Instead of guessing here, why not try it yourself? Let them see what a real aircraft carrier is!"

Jiang Chaoyang and General Chen looked at each other and saw a hint of hesitation in each other's eyes.

Indeed, the performance of this aircraft carrier far exceeded their imagination.

If we don’t even dare to use such warships, how can we talk about defending the sea borders?

"Xiao Fang," Jiang Chaoyang finally asked, "how confident are you?"

Fang Yu's answer was resounding: "As the project's chief engineer, I guarantee that this aircraft carrier will not have any problems. On the contrary..."

A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“Those who hide in the shadows are the ones we should really worry about.”

The atmosphere on the bridge gradually became relaxed.

Everyone was infected by Fang Yu's confidence.

Yes, this is Dragon Country’s first aircraft carrier, which embodies the industrial strength of the entire country.

What else can threaten this steel behemoth?

"Alright then!" Jiang Chaoyang slammed the table. "Since Xiao Fang is so confident, let's give him a try!"

"Let those guys hiding in the dark see that our aircraft carrier is not just for show!"

With a long whistle, the "Kunpeng" aircraft carrier changed course and headed towards Taiping Island.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the silhouette of this behemoth looks particularly majestic.

No one knew that a naval battle that would change the landscape of the Pacific Ocean was about to unfold in these waters...

……

at the same time.

Inside the bridge of the cruiser "Izumo", the flagship of the Sakura Country Combined Fleet.

Major General Kimura paced back and forth anxiously.

Outside the porthole, dozens of warships of all sizes were hidden in the twilight, quietly waiting for their prey to take the bait.

"Report!" the communications officer suddenly said, "The third observation group sent a telegram, saying that the Dragon Kingdom fleet has not made any movement."

Kimura stopped and frowned.

Two hours have passed, why haven't the Dragon people taken action yet?

"General Kimura," Chief of Staff Tanaka stepped forward, "Do you think the Dragon people have noticed something? That's why..."

"Impossible!" Kimura said firmly, "How long have we been preparing for this operation?"

"Just to create traces of battle in the waters around Taiping Island, twelve decommissioned warships were sunk. Even the oil spill on the sea surface was carefully calculated."

He walked to the battle sand table and pointed at the markings around Taiping Island.

"Look at the layout of these ambush points. Every location has been repeatedly deduced."

"Even if the Eagles come, they won't be able to find any flaws!"

"But General," a young staff officer couldn't help but say, "if the Dragon people really found out..."

"Baga!" Kimura interrupted him harshly, "You underestimate yourselves! We are descendants of the Great Sakura Empire Navy!"

"When the Combined Fleet was crisscrossing the Pacific, the Tatmadaw couldn't even build a decent warship!"

As he was speaking, the lookout's voice suddenly came from the communicator.

“Report! Unknown fleet spotted! Bearing 135 degrees, distance approximately 40 nautical miles!”

The bridge fell silent instantly.

"Confirm identity!" Kimura rushed to the telescope.

"It's an aircraft carrier, escorted by two destroyers."

The signalman continued to report, "According to the radar, it should be the aircraft carrier that the Dragon people have been secretly building for the past two years."

The atmosphere in the bridge suddenly became tense.

"General Kimura," Chief of Staff Tanaka said with some concern, "Will the Dragon Country's aircraft carrier... be too difficult to deal with? We don't even know its performance data."

Kimura suddenly burst into laughter: "Amaterasu Omikami bless us! Not only did we catch a fish, we caught a big fish!"

"General, what are you doing...?"

Tanaka looked at him in confusion.

"Think about it," Kimura said as he walked over to the battle table. "This is Dragon Nation's first aircraft carrier, and it's still in the sea trials phase!"

"The crew is undertrained, the carrier-based pilots are inexperienced, and the systems have not been tested in actual combat. Now it has penetrated deep into our encirclement alone..."

He drew a circle on the sand table with his hand: "This is an opportunity that has been delivered to my doorstep!"

"But General," another staff officer reminded, "our intelligence shows that the performance of this aircraft carrier may exceed the latest model of the Eagle people."

Kimura waved his hand dismissively. "Intelligence? That's just something the Dragons put out to scare people."

"Do you really think a country that has just learned shipbuilding can build an aircraft carrier more advanced than the Eagle Sauce?"

He pointed at the densely packed fleet of his own ships on the sand table.

"Look at our strength! Six heavy cruisers, twelve light cruisers, plus more than thirty destroyers and frigates."

"Even if it really has some ability, can it really defeat a hundred people alone?"
