Chapter 1511: What Can I Do to Fight?
Thanks to Bai Tu's command and operations, so far, the initiative of the entire operation is still in their hands.
Therefore, even in this situation where he was being chased by the enemy for a long time, he still had room to maneuver.
The fleet did not move, and the air bombing force rushed into the battlefield first! This was already a routine operation for their Great Zhou fleet.
For targets that are too far away, the pterosaurs will grab barrels of explosives and fly to bomb them, which will indeed greatly increase their physical energy consumption, but this does not mean that they cannot bomb!
The long chase at sea had made the soldiers of Patton's navy somewhat numb mentally, until that explosion sounded! "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
However, facing the bombing of powder barrels by their Great Zhou aerial bombing force, no matter how they shouted the enemy attack, it was useless.
They lack the means to defuse such attacks.
The only thing left to do in the end is...
"Retreat! The entire fleet retreats and creates distance between us and the enemy fleet!!"
It turned out that the distance they were keeping now was already within the bombing range of the Great Zhou Fleet! For a moment, they didn't know why the Great Zhou Fleet hadn't taken action before.
The unexpected situation made the military officers, including the Governor of Beihai, look a little ugly.
The only thing they can hope for now is to escape the enemy's bombing range after further increasing their distance.
At the same time, a new question emerged in the mind of the Governor of the North Sea because of the sudden offensive of the Great Zhou fleet.
[The enemy fleet that had been retreating before suddenly launched an offensive now. Why? There is a problem, definitely a problem! ]
Just as the Governor of the North Sea was puzzled by this, the Great Zhou fleet, led by Bai Tu, which took the lead in launching the bombing offensive, had turned its bow at the fastest speed and approached the Patton fleet.
They would not wait for the other side to figure it out. The moment the battle officially started, each warship executed tactics at the fastest speed.
The remaining four sets of explosives in the fleet were quickly used up, directly destroying the upper facilities of the four opposing speedboats.
At this moment, there was actually nothing wrong with Patton's fleet's retreat.
By increasing the distance, the pterosaurs' physical energy consumption during loaded flight can be increased, thereby reducing their bombing capabilities.
But wouldn't Bai Tu, the user, have thought of such a simple question? Subsequent bombings soon began, and more Patton Clippers lost their attack capabilities in the bombing.
During this process, Patton's fleet felt very clearly that although the distance between their fleets was not being shortened rapidly, the frequency of the enemy's bombing was inexplicably becoming higher and higher.
"Something's wrong, this is wrong!"
"Wait a minute! Look at those huge strange birds in the sky. They are not flying from the opposite fleet! They are flying from another direction!!"
Patton's fleet realized that something was wrong and soon discovered the clues.
In other words, the Great Zhou had no intention of concealing the truth from the very beginning.
"These strange birds are flying from the opposite direction!"
Almost at the same time when Patton's fleet discovered this situation, the support fleet led by Bo Levin had slowly appeared behind Patton's fleet, blocking their retreat.
The size of the four clippers was basically insignificant to them. They were more concerned about another issue...
"When did they get behind us?!"
"No, the enemy's reinforcements have arrived!"
After a quick check of the situation in the surrounding waters, he found that only the four speedboats had appeared so far. This discovery made the Governor of the North Sea feel a little uncertain.
In his opinion, as reinforcements, only four clippers were too shabby. Wanting to cut off the retreat of Patton's fleet with only four clippers? This was somewhat ridiculous.
However, the situation before him did not give him any time to think. Every explosion that rang in his ears seemed to put pressure on him.
Faced with this situation, the Governor of Beihai took a deep breath and quickly issued an order to the microphone that had already been activated...
"Although the upper facilities of the bombed clippers have been completely destroyed, they are still able to move. Let them intercept the enemy fleet behind them and ram them directly!"
Apparently, during this period of pursuit, the Governor of the North Sea was not idle either.
He thought carefully and analyzed the previous battle with the Great Zhou fleet, and then sorted out a set of countermeasures.
"The rest of the ships that have not been bombed continue to retreat. We will first eliminate the four enemy ships blocking the rear and secure our retreat first!"
At this moment, the tactical thinking of the Governor of the North Sea was very clear.
During this period, the two fleet captains who came to support, although they wanted to curse in their hearts because of the terrible situation in front of them, but after receiving the order from the Governor of the North Sea, they cooperated with each other without any ambiguity.
After all, he was able to become the captain of the fleet by his own strength. He must know that in this situation, fighting alone would only lead to a dead end! Only if they unite and cooperate well can they gain a better chance of winning!
This was not the first time that Patton's fleet faced bombing by pterosaur riders.
Although they have not found a good solution at this stage, the officers and soldiers in the fleet are mentally prepared for this kind of attack, so they are not completely thrown into disarray like they were at the beginning.
After receiving the order, the warships quickly took action, and the well-trained side of Patton's navy was clearly revealed at this moment.
"Did you adapt so quickly?"
Blowing up the upper facilities and sinking it directly have different effects after all.
With the 'Eye of Insight' on, Bai Tu observed the actions of Patton's fleet throughout the entire process.
He saw through the opponent's tactical thinking almost at a glance.
But this doesn't mean he has a very good way to deal with it.
Their Majesties once said that strategies in this world can be roughly divided into open and secret conspiracies.
The so-called conspiracy mostly refers to deceitful methods, which are real and fake means. Sometimes they can be very effective when the opportunity is right, but once they are seen through, they will not be of much use.
As for the open plot, the other party knows what you are going to do, but is powerless to change it, let alone stop it! As the commander of an army, you can use conspiracy, but you should be better at using open plots!
From this point of view, the bombing of their pterosaur riders was itself a very straightforward and blatant conspiracy. The other party knew what they were going to do but was powerless to stop them.
And at this moment, the other party's actions are the same.
Faced with the desperate and self-sacrificing charge of Barton's Clippers, even they who are currently in a dominant position have to retreat.
To put it bluntly, they don't even want to live anymore, what can you do to fight them? (End of this chapter)
