Chapter 805
: Risk it all, intercept and support enemy aircraft
Thinking of the extremely terrible consequences that would follow, Douglas' face became more solemn.
Because once the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet falls, they will need to push forward to the front line and face the crazy Longxia Navy. The consequences will be unpredictable.
The key point is that they will be stationed in the Dongzhou Sea area. If he has to face such a crazy opponent all day long, he will not be able to sleep peacefully. Suddenly, he felt that God was extremely unfair to him. Why did he encounter the powerful and rising Longxia Navy when it was his turn to come here?
He also wanted to have a good rest here, at least so that he could enjoy more girls from the East Wilderness Tribe, right?
Before coming, he got accurate information that the girls in Donghuang were so plump and beautiful that no other part of their body could compare to them. Both their waist and their perky buttocks were fascinating.
"Well, next we have to count on Willis to lead the Enterprise to obtain more valuable intelligence. Otherwise, when it is our turn to go into battle, we will be faced with some tricky and dirty jobs. Fuck!" Douglas said unhappily, wanting to beat someone up to vent his dissatisfaction.
The deputy captain reminded: "Captain, it will not only be our aircraft carrier fleet, but also the Carl aircraft carrier fleet that will be deployed in the Dongzhou waters."
"In this way, we will have two aircraft carrier fleets in the region, and together we will be able to cope with all challenges."
That's right, he thought so. Looking at the entire Dongzhou Sea area, which navy can confront the two aircraft carrier fleets? Their two aircraft carrier fleets are all Nimitz-class 100,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
An aircraft carrier has seventy or eighty carrier-based aircraft, all of which are the most advanced F18 Hornet carrier-based aircraft, and they are also assisted by the garrison base.
Douglas thought about it along this line of thought and realized that it was indeed the case. He felt relieved immediately.
"Notify them immediately and make comprehensive defensive preparations to prevent the Longxia Navy from attacking us!"
Douglas gave the order with a serious face, "We must not be attacked by the Longxia Navy when we are supporting the Enterprise aircraft carrier."
In his opinion, the only way for the Longxia Navy to defeat them is by sneak attack, and they dare not confront them head-on!
"Yes, Captain!"
The deputy captain immediately took the order and deployed it.
Not only Douglas's Vulture aircraft carrier fleet, but also the Carl aircraft carrier fleet Bowensmith also received relevant orders from the headquarters. They immediately contacted the air carrier-based aircraft formation going to the front line for support and ordered them to advance at full speed.
Now that they are at war, they naturally cannot be stingy with fuel. They must achieve the goal of the raid as soon as possible.
If we observe from a higher dimension at this moment, we will certainly find that the fighter formations coming from three different directions have all turned on the afterburners and entered the supersonic cruise state, rushing towards the area where the Enterprise aircraft carrier is located.
If these fighter jets were to form a formation, it would certainly be a very large fleet, with a total number of more than a hundred.
On the other side, above the relevant waters of the Donghuang tribe, the radar on the 10,000-ton destroyer of the Third Combat Corps has been turned on at full power, constantly searching the surrounding situation and locating the specific location of the Vulture aircraft carrier.
Limited by the influence of the earth's curvature, they had no choice but to close the distance and approach the area where the Vulture aircraft carrier was. Captain Cao Youren stared at the radar display without blinking, closely watching the movement on it.
In addition, the radar has also activated the automatic locking function for the aircraft carrier, which means that once the specific location of the USS Condor is discovered, it will be automatically marked and then shared with the Navy Integrated Arsenal Control Center.
Seeing the carrier-based aircraft that had taken off from the USS Vulture suddenly accelerate and head towards the direction of the missile attack, Cao Youren laughed. He knew very well that this wave of attacks had created unprecedented pressure on the USS Enterprise fleet.
"Hahaha, this is interesting. The enemy is obviously getting anxious, and their air force has also been forced into a corner by us. We have become the active party, and they have become the passive party."
"Now both sides have changed direction, and the offense and defense have changed!"
Hearing this, the deputy captain and the people in the main control room also started laughing, feeling very happy.
After so many years, the Longxia Navy finally took the initiative in the conflict, forcing the Eagle Tribe into a passive defensive position and became very anxious.
Looking around the world, this is probably the only one of its kind, and they feel it’s all worth it!
The deputy captain at the side came over to take a look and asked, "Captain, do we need to attack them next?"
"We must fight. They are the enemies that have oppressed us for a long time!"
Cao Youren's eyes flashed with an icy cold light, "We didn't take action before, we were waiting for the right opportunity."
"As a surprise force that has advanced to the sea area of the East Wasteland Tribe, we must give full play to the effectiveness of surprise forces. Once we take action, we must catch them off guard and make sure they have no way back!"
"Now the time has come, it's our turn to take action."
After a brief pause, Cao Youren glanced at everyone in the control room and said very seriously, "Everyone, once we start, we must be mentally prepared. Do you understand?"
Cao Youren did not speak too bluntly, but instead stopped at the point. However, everyone present knew very well what he meant.
As a surprise force that has penetrated deep into the relevant waters of the Donghuang tribe, if they take action, their position will be exposed and the consequences will be very terrible.
Now that their position has been exposed, it will be difficult for them to launch a surprise attack. Moreover, they are likely to fall into the concentrated fire of the Eagle Tribe. It can be said that their situation is very dangerous.
If they don't take action, it's impossible for them to just watch the enemy's carrier-based aircraft hunt for missiles.
In fact, they all knew very well that even if the three combat corps were to face two aircraft carrier fleets at the same time, not to mention anything else, the amount of ammunition they carried would not be enough.
Therefore, one of the three combat corps must stand out to meet the enemy's concentrated fire attack, and then only their third combat corps has this advantage.
From the moment they entered the relevant waters of the Donghuang Tribe, every sailor of the Third Combat Corps was mentally prepared for sacrifice.
"Captain, give the order."
The deputy captain stared at Cao Youren with burning eyes and said seriously, "We are the only ones who are most suitable to do this kind of thing. Using us to attract the enemy's concentrated fire in exchange for the Eagle Tribe Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet and the Vulture aircraft carrier is a very cost-effective deal."
"There is no one more suitable than us. We have been fully prepared since we entered the waters of the East Desert Tribe."
"We are not afraid of the enemy's concentrated fire. For victory, our efforts are worth it!"
Cao Youren looked at the deputy captain deeply, then looked at everyone, and saw that everyone's expression was solemn, and it was obvious that they were all ready to contribute themselves and die bravely. I have to say, they are really a group of very lovely people!
"Well, I won't waste my words."
Cao Youren took a deep breath and gave the order directly, "Target the carrier-based aircraft launched by the Eagle Tribe's Vulture aircraft carrier. Aim and attack."
"Our main goal is to prevent them from rushing to the front line. It would be best if we could eat them all. Do you understand?"
Everyone said in unison: "Understood!"
Cao Youren nodded and decisively issued an order: "Listen to my orders, prepare the anti-aircraft missiles and fire!"
At the command, the five warships of the Third Combat Corps opened their air defense firepower at full capacity, and one after another, the Haihongqi 901B air defense missiles burst out from the launch silos and rushed towards the enemy aircraft.
The radar warning sound of the carrier-based aircraft formation taking off from the USS Condor aircraft carrier fleet in the air suddenly exploded. This was the warning sound of being locked by a missile.
The pilots hurriedly looked at the radar, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Oh shit, there was a sudden anti-aircraft attack from below, obviously launched from the sea.
Fuck you, they were just going to support the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet, how come they were intercepted halfway? Is this really a joke? If it weren't for the radar warning, they would have never known they were ambushed until they died, right?
There are 24 carrier-based aircraft taking off in this wave, all from the USS Condor. They are all F18 Hornet carrier-based aircraft. However, no matter how advanced they are, they cannot withstand the attack of anti-aircraft missiles exceeding Mach 5.
After receiving the order from Captain Douglas, they all started afterburner and entered supersonic flight in a very short time.
Of course, the fuel consumption is also very terrifying, but there is no other way. They must rush to the front line as quickly as possible to carry out support missions.
But now, they were intercepted by an unknown anti-aircraft missile midway, and the missile was flying so fast that they were a little panicked.
Lieutenant Colonel Fredette, the commander of the formation, opened the communication channel and said very seriously: "Everyone, we must hurry to the front line. The Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet is under attack by the Longxia Navy and is in imminent danger."
"Therefore, we must speed up the flight and shorten the time spent on the journey as much as possible."
"We are out of fuel. We can call for aerial refueling. In short, we must complete this mission well!"
"Everyone, be alert. We can't just watch the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet get annihilated."
"Let me tell you something important. The Enterprise aircraft carrier has been severely damaged. We cannot use it for takeoff and landing, so we are carrying out a quick attack and quick retreat mission."
"Does everyone understand?"
Everyone in the communication channel immediately responded with a straightforward response: "Understood, Captain."
Rather than calling Fredette lieutenant colonel, they preferred to call him the captain of the formation.
"After we rescue the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet, we will immediately switch to an offensive role and give those damn Longxia navy a heavy blow, making them realize how stupid and weak they are!"
"For so many years, we have always dominated the entire Blue Star. We have always been the ones who beat others, and no one has ever beaten us. Today, the Longxia Navy has turned against Tiangang, so we must severely punish them!"
"When it is our turn to attack the Longxia Navy, I demand that you fight them to death and completely wipe them out!"
That’s right, Lieutenant Colonel Fredette was already very annoyed. He felt that his reputation as a member of the U.S. military had been slapped in the face by the Longxia Navy.
At this point, he suddenly changed the subject: "Can everyone complete the mission in this aircraft carrier defense battle?"
"can!"
Fredette was very happy to hear such a response.
Inspired by his pre-war mobilization, the morale of the pilots in the formation was high, and they wished they could teleport to the battlefield immediately to fight the incoming missiles.
As long as we defend the Enterprise aircraft carrier fleet, it will be the greatest honor and the contribution will be enormous.
This credit was within their grasp, so they all looked domineering as if no one else could do it better than them, and they displayed the inherent pride of the Eagle Tribe soldiers to the fullest.
Just as everyone was roaring and rushing forward, suddenly, Fredette heard the radar warning sounding desperately in the cockpit. He hurriedly lowered his head to take a look at the radar display, and suddenly a chill ran up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
On the radar display, there were dozens of small red cursors moving rapidly, and the target was their carrier-based aircraft formation.
In terms of quantity, there are more than 24 missiles, which means that each carrier-based aircraft has been allocated at least one or two air defense missiles. The speed is so fast that it changes its position on the radar screen almost in the blink of an eye.
Fredette thought he was seeing things, and when he rubbed his eyes hurriedly and looked again, he found that the missiles not only existed, but had also moved a long distance, getting closer and closer to them.
The speed was clearly over Mach 4, my God, it was almost killing them.
Suppressing his rapidly fluctuating emotions, he roughly estimated on the radar screen that there were more than forty-eight missiles, and they were currently more than one hundred and ten kilometers away.
At this speed, it won’t be long before they are hit by anti-aircraft missiles.
Based on the relevant data on the radar and combined with the analysis of the battlefield situation, Fredette could almost tell with his toenails that this must be an anti-aircraft missile launched by the Longxia Navy, and the goal was to shoot them down.
In other words, a Longxia naval fleet was ambushed in the sea area belonging to the Donghuang tribe.
Before they took off, they already had a preliminary understanding of the Longxia Navy's weapons and equipment, especially the air defense missiles and anti-ship missiles. After all, after several rounds of fighting, the relevant intelligence had been learned by the Eagle Tribe military.
If it was the Eastern Wilderness Tribe Navy, they would not be able to launch a surprise attack at this time. (End of this chapter)
