Chapter 1060: Looking for Daddy

Chapter 1060: Looking for Daddy (This battle is over, there will be 2 chapters today and chapters tomorrow)

Although the battle was not yet over, the current battle situation was quickly transmitted via radio waves to Tianya Island in the north, and even further north.

Our forward command also received an order to "resolutely destroy the enemy."

It goes without saying at which level this macro-level command without details comes from.

But it’s hard to say. For example, some troops may receive details like “the gunboat moved ten chains to the left”, which may also come from a higher level.

"Gunboat formation, cover the remaining landing troops as they approach Sponge Island." This was the last order issued before 6304 pursued the enemy ship 215.

Three landing craft, including the one that temporarily dropped a platoon on the Manfu Island beach to assist in the operations on the Manfu Island beach, also took up the temporarily dropped platoon, gathered together, and approached Sponge Island under the cover of four gunboats.

先不说在海棉岛上瑟瑟发抖的敌人,6311和6303和6304、6312分开,6303还在电台里和6311商量。

"6311, just let me clear out the missiles. It will be much more refreshing this way." 6303 volunteered. The sound of abacus beads could be heard even in Cape City.

"No, that won't work. You should save some ammunition to deal with emergencies. I'll do it this time." 6311 considered the overall situation.

6303 soon stopped its activities. Command is command. Disobeying direct orders is a very serious matter, regardless of the facts, the nature of the matter is different.

When criticizing the regular army, there is a criticism called "serious guerrilla style". This does not mean that there is anything wrong with the guerrillas themselves, but that the guerrilla's combat style is necessary for the guerrillas, but it is incompatible with the regular army and will cause big chaos.

As 6311 was moving forward, it looked at the 210 ship which was struggling desperately but unable to move.

At this time, it cannot be said that there is no damage control on the 210 ship, but at least it is better than nothing. If Gao Zhendong knew the situation here, he would not find it strange at all. Ten years later, a large ship of more than 2000 tons can be sunk by a maximum 85mm caliber naval gun. How strong can the damage control capability be? It is undoubtedly a joke.

Some jumped into the sea first to join the people from other enemy ships, some tried to struggle and save the warship, some were trapped in the cabin facing the raging fire because the passages were distorted by the explosion and the hatches were stuck, and occasionally there were even one or two who wanted to fire a few shells, but they were not the mainstream.

While adjusting its course, 6311 had a sudden idea.

"6303, let's get closer together. You use your guns to cover me, and I'll use torpedoes at close range!"

These two torpedoes can only be effective at this time. After all, the power of a 450mm torpedo exploding underwater is so powerful that not only the 62kg warhead of the Zhengxian-160, but even the 500kg shaped-charge warhead of the Zhengxian- cannot defeat it. This is determined by the damage principle.

In S2, many giant abandoned ships that were hit by bombs and artillery shells and could no longer move were sunk by their own torpedoes. Regarding this matter, a certain auspicious ship "Xuefeng" is very experienced.

The only problem is that the torpedo arm is too short, and the conditions for getting a chance to launch it are very harsh. Putting aside the requirements of the launching position, the enemy's counterattack cannot be too strong, and it is best if it cannot move.

At this time, the 210 ship perfectly meets this condition, and you can even choose the launching position at will, and choose the most comfortable position to shoot.

For 6311, there is another reason for deciding to use torpedoes, that is, torpedoes are cheaper than missiles at this time. After all, the price of this S2 technology level of direct-flight torpedo is not expensive.

They would rather take a little risk and save some money.

"I understand!" 6303 was very excited. He originally thought there was no hope, but unexpectedly he could still drink some soup.

6311 finally lived up to the enemy's expectations. Under the cover of 6303's artillery fire, it approached very calmly and truly played the role of a "large torpedo boat".

The only problem is that this large torpedo boat can only carry a limited number of bombs.

However, for the enemy's 210 ship, which was in a precarious situation, these two 450mm torpedoes were completely unbearable.

The crew of Ship 6303, who were fleeing in panic under the cover of Ship 210's artillery fire, did not even notice the two white lines emerging from Ship 6311 and rushing towards them.

The enemy, who were already in a miserable and exhausted situation, were unknowingly lifted up high by two underwater torpedoes and then dropped heavily into the water.

Although the two 450mm torpedoes were no match for the 533mm torpedoes designed to deal with large ships like battleships, they were still a bit beyond the scope for a 2800-ton ship. Under the shock wave of the explosion and the repeated stress of falling back into the water, the enemy ship 210 broke in half and sank rapidly, following the ships 211 and 228.

Even at this time, the enemy's smallest ships 204 and 205 still had a mast exposed above the sea, which was ironic.

He who drains the greatest amount of water suffers the most severe beating.

This was not the only irony. It was also quite ironic for 6304 and 6312, but this time they were mocking their own comrades. They drove at full speed, circling out from the reef of Sponge Island, and just brought the enemy ship 215 into the effective and stable scanning and locking range of the radar.

"6312, you cover me and I will attack." 6304 was close to the water and got the chance to attack ship 215 first, so it kept the chance with itself.

"6312 understands." The voice sounded a little regretful.

Just as 6304 was about to press the missile launch button, two white smoke lines suddenly appeared in the sky, followed by two bursts of fire on the 215 ship, and the ship's speed almost immediately slowed down.

"Where did it hit? Where did it hit?" The captain of 6304 was very unwilling to accept it. He shouted on the radio that the comrades with missiles were all held down by him, so how come the duck that was in his mouth flew away? The launch distance did not seem far, and the missile engine was still working. How far could it be?
"This is Bluebird-17. I fired it. Please confirm the results. I still have two missiles." The voice of a comrade on Be-6 came from the air, trying not to laugh.

"No need, keep the ammunition for emergencies." The captain of 6304 shouted unhappily.

"6312, come closer with me."

But before they could get close, the 1700-ton enemy ship had disappeared on the sea, leaving only the oil ripples on the water and a few sailors floating and calling for help.

6304 immediately changed the order: "The gunboats continue to cover the landing craft as they approach Sponge Island, and the escort boats will salvage the prisoners on the spot. 55317, convert to a prisoner reception ship and no longer land on the island." As far as the sea was concerned, the war had already been fought, and those who fell into the water were prisoners, and the prisoner policy still had to be implemented when it was time to do so.

There is another platoon on 55317, and its original function is to transport people, which is just right for this task. The space and guard conditions are all there.

As for Sponge Island, the commander of the forward command did not think that they would have any chance of resistance even if one platoon was added or removed, for there were two fully equipped reinforced companies on the two boats.

Looking at the sea that was gradually calming down and the slowly approaching gunboats and landing craft, the enemies on Sponge Island trembled in fear while reporting the battle situation to their headquarters.

"Hurry up and ask for help from the Citigroup people!" This was the only solution Nanhou could think of.

It's not that there are no Citigroup members here. They are in Nanhou. The Citigroup fleet stationed in the Far East has warships anchored in their ports, not only in Crystal Blue Bay, but also in Xenon Port, which is less than 400 kilometers away from the battle zone.

"Mr. Commander, we need your help." In Crystal Blue Bay, a Southern Monkey arrived at the headquarters of the Citibank Fleet in Jiaozhi. He walked into the office of the commander of the Crystal Blue Bay Fleet and said respectfully.

"What help?"

The Citigroup elders were not completely unaware of the Southern Monkeys' little moves. After all, it was difficult to conceal the mobilization of warships. Even though the Southern Monkeys were gathering in Xenon Port to march east, the Citigroup elders also had warships in Xenon Port.

If it were decades later, since these warships were military surplus given by the Americans, the Americans would have a way to make their ships break down halfway.

Qiudian: You are right!
But at this time, the Citibank guys don’t have that ability, so they can only turn a blind eye and see what you, Nanhou, are trying to do.

Facts have proved that people may not necessarily teach others, but it is much easier for things to teach people.

Look, now they have no choice but to come for help. For dog owners, sometimes loosening the leash and letting it go out to experience the dangers of the outside world will help improve its loyalty.

"We had a conflict with Lord Dong near the Sponge Reefs in the Reef West Islands. The situation is very serious now and we urgently need your help." The first thing Nanhou said was big news.

"What??!!!" The commander of the Citigroup's fleet sat up and thought again, it was the Southern Monkey who was beaten, what does it have to do with me?

He calmed down a little, stood up and looked at the nautical chart hanging on the wall.

No matter how wild the imagination of the Americans was, they did not expect that the Southern Monkeys would give them such a big party. They actually ran to a place only 300 kilometers away from the Orientals' large island to actively provoke the Orientals.

Others may not know, but the American people who have close ties with certain places know very well that within this distance range, the current control of the Orientals is very strong. Let alone you, the Southern Monkey, even if it is an island that is much stronger than you and has more elite soldiers, when facing the other side, you can only retreat and avoid the sharp edge temporarily.

If Commander Citi could predict the future, he would find this even more puzzling than the Weeping Nation's fight for John Bull's isolated archipelago.

After all, the island is ten or dozens of times farther away from the base that John Bull can actually control, and Nanhou's behavior is simply dancing on the faces of the Orientals. With the current naval and air strength of the Orientals, especially the air force, at this distance, even the Citi people themselves have to be cautious, which is why they did not grasp the battle that took place there that day.

The Citibank people did not think that it was the Orientals who took the initiative to provoke. As the commander of the naval forces stationed here, he was relatively familiar with the temper of the Orientals. To use the traditional saying, they were polite and had dignity.

If there was no reason, he wouldn't have beaten Nanhou to the point of asking for his father.

He even wondered in his heart, what on earth did you do?
