Chapter 85 First Victory
Zhang Haize left in a hurry the next day, without any intention of leaving. Chen Yu actually understood that he was worthy of the word "friend" that he could do this.
In the next nearly a month, Duke's intelligence department started running wildly, collecting a large amount of intelligence, and then after Duke and his subordinates' screening, the most useful one was presented to Chen Yu.
The training of helicopters has begun for a month. With this thing, there is no place that cannot be visited in the entire Roland Sea, even the most dangerous place. During this period, the armed helicopters acted as reconnaissance planes and kept patrolling the Yaochi Sea.
...
For a moment, the entire Luolan waters were in a very tense state, with a feeling of storm coming and winds filling the building. Almost everyone's eyes were focused on the southern waters. Even the Ling family's Duchy of China, which was in a small-scale conflict with the Principal of Gao, stopped and paid attention to the dynamics of Yaochi at any time.
Chen Yu was not idle during this period, and he was also trying to win over allies. However, in the end, only Grand Duke Gumit was able to determine the offensive and defensive alliance relationship. Even the Duchy of Sea Lion, which had signed an alliance agreement, now gave an ambiguous answer.
In fact, the main reason is that the two countries are too close to each other, so it is impossible to attack and defend the alliance.
It was another month. During this period, the senior management of Yaochi had formulated hundreds of combat plans and prepared all the accidents that could be imagined during the war. Then Chen Yu ordered Ma Kui to raid the Principality of Jacques! Since the war was unavoidable, then just take the lead in launching an attack!
As soon as Ma Kui received the order, he led all his fleets to raid Thunderbolt Island in a flash. Seven frigates and hundreds of warships were stationed on Thunderbolt Island. They were also preparing for the battle for 24 hours, waiting for the orders above and could attack at any time.
When Magui's fleet reached a hundred nautical miles away from Thunderbolt Island, the fleet of the Principality of Jacques also reacted, drove out of the military port and headed out towards the outer sea.
However, Ma Kui's fleet had been on high alert, waiting for the enemy to appear. More than three hours later, at 3:11 pm, when the first signal appeared on the radar, Ma Kui raised his arm and waved it down heavily, "Fire a gun!"
With this cannon, at 3:11 pm on June 11, 301, the Battle of Thunder Island, which shocked the Roland Sea, began...
As soon as Ma Kui finished speaking, he saw large caliber naval guns roaring and shooting more than 30 kilometers away. Although one was a missile frigate equipped with a missile launcher, the accuracy was really poor and the price was very expensive. Sometimes even twenty missiles could not hit a target, so it was not practical in actual combat.
Chen Yu was also very clear about this. He was definitely cheated, but no one else’s fault. He had the skills in the hands of others, so he could only eat coptis chinensis in a mute way.
The fleet of the Principal of Jacques also received an alarm from the fire control radar in an instant, and then made various evasion actions. At the same time, they also began to counterattack.
After loud bangs, the two warships on the edge of the Duchy of Jacques were immediately hit, but they were not sunk. It was obvious that they were equipped with leather steel. As for where their leather steel came from, a fool could guess.
The face of the commander of the Duchy of Jacques fleet immediately changed, and he quickly ordered to turn around and drive towards the other direction. He was an expert and could see at a glance that Maku's fleet would definitely be connected to live ammunition shooting, otherwise it would be impossible for him to hit his warship so far.
After a bombardment, the fleet led by Ma Kui did not cause any substantial casualties. Ma Kui carefully looked at the information collected by the reconnaissance speedboat, and then said: "Swallow-type pursuit!"
Twenty modified warships immediately left the home team, formed a swallow shape with two warships and ten torpedoes, and then increased their horsepower and chased the other side...
Two hours later, at 5:15 pm, the difference between the fleets of the two sides was less than ten nautical miles. Because the commander of the Principality of Jacques's fleet ordered a retreat before, their morale is not very high now because the reason for the damage to the two warships was damaged.
At 5:18 pm, the commander of the Principal of Jacques ordered a change of direction and began to fight back. Their flagship Sapphire frigate was the first to attack the Snake Island where Makui was riding. For a moment, gunfire sounded.
Ma Kui looked at the circular formation gradually formed by the other party, his eyes trembled. He knew that he had met an expert this time, and immediately shouted on the intercom: "The whole ship is still, and you can make evasive actions at any time! One team of three torpedo boats charge!"
Ten torpedo boats rushed forward quickly against the enemy ship's artillery fire. At this time, the enemy fleet also completed its formation and began to counterattack towards the Yaochi fleet frantically.
After losing a torpedo speedboat, Ma Kui finally approached the enemy ship, and then torpedoes shot under the water. With loud bangs, several warships outside the circular formation of the Principal of Jacques were all sunk by torpedoes...
In less than half an hour, the formation of the Principality of Jacques collapsed. Everyone on the Snake Island warship shouted long live Yaochi, but Ma Kui did not show any happiness on his face, but his expression became even more solemn. He knew very well that this was just a temporary victory.
Before he knew it, the fleet led by Ma Kui had also completed the pre-set actions. The original Yan type has now been replaced with a diagonal type, and the torpedo speedboat with a relatively high mobility took the lead and rushed towards the enemy's fleet quickly.
At this time, the formation of the Duchy of Jacques' fleet had been dispersed. If we don't attack now, then Magui is really not worthy of being the commander of this fleet...
Ma Kui stood on the deck of the Snake Island warship in the wind, looking at the Thunderbolt Island in the distance. At this time, Deputy Commander Zhu Yuan said excitedly: "Total two enemy warships, twenty-seven warships, our side lost six warships and two torpedo speedboats. This is a great victory. With this point, your status will be stable. Let's see who dares to say nonsense!"
"The more difficult ones are still behind. This is not all my credit, it is everyone's." Ma Kui said with a smile. He looked calm on the surface, but he was also very excited inside. Chen Yu handed over this position to Ma Kui, which was originally a great hope, so he was very worried that he would not do well. With this victory, at least he would not be so cautious.
...
Yaochi, Chen Yu and his men were anxiously waiting for the news of Lei Gong Island. Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came. Tang Bing walked in with a telegram in his hand. As soon as he entered the door, he said: "Good news and good news! Ma Kui sunk two enemy ships and twenty-seven warships at the cost of losing six warships and two torpedo speedboats. Only the enemy's flagship Sapphire and more than a dozen warships escaped, and our army won!"
As soon as this news came, everyone who was unable to sleep or eat excitedly shouted long live Yao Chi. Chen Yu also slapped the table excitedly and said, "Okay! That's great!"
Tang Bing said at this time: "Ma Kui is asking us about the next battle plan, whether to continue attacking or withdraw Niujiao Island."
Chen Yu walked up to him and looked at the chart carefully, and said slowly: "Retreat Niujiao Island and consume the enemy's fleet, even if you can't get to Leigong Island for the time being, it will be ours sooner or later. Now is a critical period. Don't waste the precious lives of our soldiers on landing wars."
