Chapter 1549, the gap is too big
The battle was about to break out. Relying on the intelligence provided by the airship, the South China Sea Fleet, which had calibrated its position, simply waited for work and quickly deployed its artillery formation. It was only waiting for the moment when the opposing fleet rushed into the attack range of their battleship's main gun.
The naval guns opened fire one after another, and with violent firepower, they immediately launched an attack on the Europa fleet.
Facing such an offensive, the Europa fleet, which had long been prepared for battle, felt stressed, but did not panic.
Each small fleet is a battleship with the standard configuration of five or six small and medium-sized battleships.
The two outer Europa small fleets came together to form two battleships, plus more than ten small and medium-sized battleships.
To be honest, such a maritime force is no longer weak. Coupled with the supply fleet's own escort fleet, its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
Europa players actually left such a combat force behind to serve as bodyguards for the supply fleet, which is enough to show how vigilant the opponent is.
But even so, if you want to compete with the South China Sea Fleet in terms of strength, it may not be enough at all.
There is no need to be cowardly. The other Europa fleet has not arrived yet. According to the hard power of the South China Sea Fleet, if you encounter such a small fleet, you can just roll up your sleeves and start beating it.
During this period, the battle under the sea also started quickly.
However, what is different from the previous battle is that the configuration of this small fleet does not seem to include a squad of swordfish people. Those who follow the fleet are some relatively ordinary fishman soldiers.
Think about it, the highly offensive swordfish troops are not suitable for use in defensive battles, not to mention that Europa players do not have the power to command the fishmen troops at all.
This made the lizard soldiers feel much more relaxed in the subsequent battle.
Although there are some ordinary murloc soldiers that are three to four meters in size, compared with the swordfish soldiers who are close to ten meters, they are really much easier to fight.
As soon as the battle started, it was clear that the South China Sea Fleet had an overwhelming advantage.
Unable to bear a head-on battle with them, the Europa fleet decisively chose to withdraw.
As soon as the opponent fled, Yuan Xi directly signaled the South China Sea Fleet to pursue him.
The intention of that small fleet to join the other Europa small fleet was so obvious that even if the reconnaissance airship did not report the news to him, Yuan Xi could guess it with his eyes closed.
But it doesn't matter at all. Even if the two small fleets come together, they cannot be the opponent of their South China Sea Fleet.
While chasing and fighting, the Europa small fleet barely relied on its position to fight to death under the gun attack of their South China Sea Fleet.
After escaping for a while, another Europa small fleet finally appeared from the periphery of the battlefield.
At one glance, the captain of the small fleet felt his heart twitch.
"Hell, what a slap in the face?!"
The moment the target was confirmed, the captain of this small fleet had already taken the initiative to admit defeat.
The difference in the size of the battleships between the enemy and ourselves is too big!
Could it be that their two battleships were really able to sink the opposing battleships one by one with all kinds of knowing and critical strikes like divine help?
This kind of heroic comic-like plot is not suitable for a war like this.
But in the current situation, it was impossible for him not to go, otherwise, if he turned around, he would be shot for desertion by their majesties.
After giving the order, the captain bit the bullet and led his small fleet to intervene in the battlefield from one side.
Then he directly formed a naval battle formation with another friendly fleet, firing from both ends.
There shouldn't be any problems with this style of play, but the obvious difference in firepower is really unbearable to look at.
This feeling is as funny as a three- or four-year-old kid trying his best to jump up, then swinging his short legs and kicking an adult's knee...
Faced with this situation, Yuan Xi dispatched combat ships from both sides quite forcefully and launched a suppressive offensive against the two small fleets without mercy.
During this period, the captains of the two Europa small fleets, while feeling the pressure, quickly established contact with each other using radio communication devices.
"Looking at the appearance of the Chinese fleet opposite, it seems that they don't know that behind them is our Europa camp's sea line of communication."
"Not necessarily. Let's try to lure this Chinese fleet away from this sea area."
"Then let's give it a try. Don't make it too obvious. The signal for help has been sent out. During the time when the supply fleet was dispatched, there were a lot of nearby fleets. The fleet that received the signal should come to support us soon.
of."
After a simple exchange, the two Europa small fleets quickly launched into action. They said they should not do anything too obvious, but in fact, they did not need to act at all, because the fact was that they could not defeat them at all.
After a symbolic battle, the two fleets quickly implemented the plan and directly entered a mode of retreating and fighting at the same time, evacuating from this sea area step by step.
Faced with their fighting style, the Nanhai Fleet pursued them quite simply.
This can't help but make the two Europa captains more convinced of their previous guesses...
"This Chinese fleet really broke in accidentally."
"It should be, but don't be careless. Although it was an accidental intrusion, the strength is obvious. If this wave of battles is not handled well, both of our fleets will probably be doomed!"
Hearing this, the other Europa captain suddenly felt a burst of pressure, and then only listened to his suggestion...
"How about we ask the escort fleet responsible for escorting the supply ship to come over and help? Their location should be the closest to us, so the support efficiency is the highest."
While speaking, the Europa captain was also thinking that if he added the combat power of the escort fleet, he should be able to deal with the opponent.
However, the captain of another small fleet rejected his proposal without hesitation.
"No, the supplies transported by the supply ship are crucial, so be careful."
On this side, it was naturally impossible for Yuan Xi to know about the exchanges between the two Europa captains. However, on the other side, the intelligence messages returned by the aerial reconnaissance airship allowed him to continue to obtain first-hand information on this sea area.
"The escort fleet didn't move? Surprisingly, it was quite cautious..."
Faced with this situation, Yuan Xi quickly spoke after thinking about it for a while...
"After our fleet has completely left this area, let the No. 4 reconnaissance airship inform the fleet to take action!"
