Ed Sea, Eritrea, Red Sea
Simpson was completely unaware of the imminent danger, and he even joked with Holder who rushed over, saying that he was waiting for his arrival. But this joke couldn't drive away the sadness on Holder's face. In his opinion, Simpson was a little too optimistic.
"If we continue to delay, once the Jeddah incident occurs, our whereabouts will definitely be revealed..."
"Mr. Huo is too nervous. This is an order just issued by General Rael, asking us to capture Jibu as soon as possible."
Holder was slightly taken aback, but he quickly realized that he did not reach out to receive the military order from Simpson. As a "civilian", he is very self-aware.
"The two destroyers and the submarine have been unloaded and now have civilian supplies on board."
Simpson "Seven Eight Seven" knew what Holder was thinking, and was nothing more than finding an excuse to leave the battlefield. He didn't care about this, after all, Holder followed him, except that it would bring him a burden, and there was almost no benefit. He readily agreed to Holder's suggestion and let the "Eli" leave the formation, but the "Eli" needs to arrive at the predetermined sea area and wait.
Holder didn't know that his deliberate avoidance of suspicion saved him from a disaster. Not long after the "Yi Li" left the formation, some crew members spotted with the naked eye a fighter plane flying in the direction of the formation at ultra-low altitude in the nearby waters. But the fighter planes found were all in the khaki livery of the Aberdeen Alliance Air Force, which made Holder give up the idea of telling Simpson
But Holder never imagined that these fighter planes did not belong to them, but belonged to the Yanhuang army stationed in Djibouti. The purpose of painting the fighter planes as the Arab League Air Force is entirely to confuse the air observation posts that the Allied forces may have set up in the surrounding waters.
Simpson was still cursing Holder in his mouth, in order to be able to attack Djibouti to reduce losses. He did not order the troops to turn on the fire control radar, but asked the troops to continue to maintain radio and radar silence. As a result of this, the Simpson fleet was beaten everywhere as soon as they met each other, completely losing the initiative in the war.
Simpson's face was a little dazed, and he still couldn't accept the fact that just happened. Just now, I just heard the news that the Aberdeen Union Air Force is nearby, and I heard the urgent alarm and harsh siren of the observation sentry. Those Yanhuang fighter planes disguised as the Arab League Air Force attacked the fleet like vultures, and those missiles were like claws opened.
Simpson was quick to react, but he overlooked one thing. My own fleet is not composed of eagle sauce, but is jointly built by many countries. As a result, there are still many problems in coordinated operations. When his order reached the ships, although Eagle Sauce responded, the other allied forces still hadn't figured out what happened. Therefore, when the missiles roared towards them, the Allied soldiers could only flee in a hurry, or jump directly into the water.
In just one round, the Simpson fleet lost nearly one-fifth of its warships. This is an unacceptable statistic for today's naval warfare. But the facts are right in front of our eyes, more than a dozen warships in the entire fleet have suffered various damages, and two of them have begun to sink.
Simpson had too much time to fall into confusion, so he hurriedly came to his senses and kept giving orders to make adjustments. Fortunately, the ships sent by various countries are well-trained, and after experiencing the blow, all the ships quickly counterattacked. Several missiles flew out of the ship, and the regional air defense network began to be compiled step by step. But the Yanhuang people were obviously unwilling to let Simpson get his wish, and rushed into the fleet to harass and destroy regardless of everything.
Seeing this scene, Simpson's face changed slightly. He hurriedly ordered the fleet to disperse, hoping to gradually complete the defense system by establishing small regional air defense networks. But the attack speed of the Yanhuang people was too fast, and more than ten fighter planes appeared on the horizon like the gods of death.
Simpson was suddenly surrounded by a trace of helplessness. In desperation, he could only order the fleet to retreat at full speed to get rid of the continuous attacks of the Yanhuang Air Force. But his thinking was still too naive, Yanhuang fighter jets arrived in the sky of the fleet one after another. Although the number of arrivals each time is not large, and the time spent in the air is also short, it is enough to entangle the fleet.
In desperation, Simpson could only order Ying Jiang to abandon the Allied forces and retreat at full speed, and asked the Allied ships to fight to the death to buy them time. In his opinion, as long as Yingjiang's fleet can gather together, a protective circle can be built in a short time. When that time comes, take on the remaining Allied ships. Although the idea is good, he ignores the selfishness of human beings.
His order was perceived by the commanders of the other Allied ships as an abandonment, leading to even greater collapse. Those allied warships almost gave up resistance completely and fled in all directions. When Simpson saw this scene, he couldn't help feeling a little hopeless in his heart. He knew that if he continued to resist, the final result could only be the annihilation of the entire army, and he could only order the fleet to retreat at full speed.
Maybe it was neglected, maybe it was forgotten, Simpson didn't tell Rael what he thought in time. He kept looking outside, hoping to get rid of the attack of the Chinese fighter plane as soon as possible. And constantly asked the signal soldiers to send distress signals, and asked the aircraft carrier formation that had just passed the Suez Canal to approach him at full speed, and sent fighter planes to support him. Fortunately, Yanhuang's offensive force has not been large, and coupled with the continuous counterattack of its own side, the two sides have gradually come to a stalemate. This made Simpson heaved a sigh of relief, and even expressed regret to Commander Yanhuang in his heart. If the other party was a little more courageous, 5.8 might not stay on this warship at this moment, but enjoy the sea breeze in the sea Blowing and washing with sea water.
"Guo Weidong..." Zuo Qingyun sighed slightly. He probably knew what kind of punishment Guo Weidong might receive after the war. This level of punishment was out of his control. The Yanhuang Army has always been clear about rewards and punishments. As a commander, he really He is qualified, and he has two completely different tactical styles from two years ago.
"Victory..." Liang Guang murmured in a low voice, "We have to hurry up, there is not much time left for us."
"Yes, it's really not much." At this moment, the loneliness in Zuo Qingyun's eyes flashed away, but it was replaced by unparalleled firmness, "When spring begins, it is the time for our decisive battle.
