Chapter 369 The Burning Red Leaf Naval Fortress
Chapter 369 The Burning Red Leaf Naval Fortress
Not far from Lin Lan and others, a huge I-type Siren mass-production fleet was on the sea, surrounding them and firing fiercely at Hongye Naval Fortress.
In the wind and snow, most of the entire Hongye Fortress has collapsed, and the shore defense facilities have been basically destroyed.
The ruins of the fortress were also under the fire of artillery fire and the aerial bombs of Siren carrier aircraft, burning with raging fire everywhere, and the black smoke had dyed all the snow on the ground ink.
A large number of Oran navy soldiers, Rubik's Cube energy robots and injured chess pieces returned from the front line were busy putting out the fire, but they were unable to stop the spread of the fire.
In the sea around the fortress, there were still many naval chess pieces and ship girls resisting the siren fleet that was several times larger than their own, and they also successfully destroyed many mass-produced siren models.
But the number of mass-produced sirens was so great that the Oran Admiralty despaired.
The mass-produced Type I Siren was like a miscellaneous soldier in front of Lin Lan's real ship girl. Coupled with the crushing level and equipment, no matter how large the number was, it could not hurt it in the slightest.
No matter which camp girl she is in Linlan Port, she can easily mow the grass against the mass-produced Type I Siren.
But for the chess pieces and ship girls of the United States of Oran, although they can easily defeat these mass-produced Type I Sirens, they will be completely suppressed by intensive artillery fire and torpedoes.
Not to mention that the Sirens also dispatched terrifying self-destruction ships. The fast-moving self-destruction ships rushed in without fear of death. Often one ship could severely damage the ships of several chess pieces and lose their combat effectiveness.
For example, at this time, a large number of chess pieces and ship girls were hit by a large number of Type I Siren mass-produced artillery shells and carrier-based aircraft bombs. They were seriously injured and had to retreat to the fortress.
"General Ji! We can't delay it any longer. The port areas elsewhere have just been attacked by sirens and cannot come to support!"
In the temporary command hall where the fortress has not yet been destroyed, more than ten senior personnel of the Eastern Continent's Navy Department are conducting combat command here.
"Boom!" "Boom!!!"
Violent explosions sounded from outside the temporary command hall from time to time, causing the ground to tremble.
Seven or eight operators were contacting other port areas to the side, but through contacting them, they learned that the Sirens had simultaneously launched an attack on the port area of the eastern mainland city closest to Hongye City.
A young naval officer anxiously explained the current situation to Ji Chenlin, whose face was covered with black gunpowder smoke and who was in a state of embarrassment. A middle-aged general also said anxiously:
"If this continues, the sirens' artillery fire will cover this place. Lao Ji, we can't let our commander and ship girls continue to die!"
"Have you not noticed yet? This Siren offensive is a retaliatory operation against our Navy Department. They specifically attacked our port area and have not yet attacked the city!"
"With the help of the city's well-established coastal defense system, we have a chance to repel them!"
After the general finished speaking, the other two naval generals remained silent, but also looked at Ji Chenlin, waiting for his instructions.
Ji Chenlin didn't speak when he heard what the two said, but just stared at the radar screen.
Countless red dots have completely surrounded the sea around the fortress, and there are only a few blue dots representing their ship girls, and less than 30% are still fighting on the sea.
This is indeed the case. This time, the Siren's sudden winter offensive was contrary to the norm in previous years, and they directly chose to launch surprise attacks on the port areas across the Eastern Continent.
Although this time they did not see the terrifying humanoid sirens and the blue mass-produced fleets of previous years, no shipgirls were sunk in various ports.
However, there were too many mass-produced Sirens, and a large number of ships were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness, forcing them to retreat from the front line.
"The sirens obviously want to drive us to the city, but why? What are they planning?"
The explosions were getting closer and closer to them, and they were getting denser and denser. The expression on Ji Chenlin's face, which had been dyed black by gunpowder smoke, became more and more solemn.
That's right, the Siren's offensive this time was not to attack the city, nor to completely destroy their naval department, but more like to drive them out of the port area or fortress where they were stationed, and force them to go to the city for defense.
Although they have the most legitimate excuse to evacuate the city at this time, if they want to launch a civil war later, they can destroy the Candle Sea Commercial Guild Building in the city as soon as possible.
But Ji Chenlin, who had been fighting the Siren for many years, keenly noticed something was wrong.
This is more like Siren deliberately forcing them to do this, just to make it easier for them to start a war with the Candle Sea Chamber of Commerce.
"Boom!!!"
A violent explosion suddenly exploded directly above them, as if it would shatter the entire space. Even the power supply of the temporary command center was extinguished for several seconds before being restored.
Ji Chenlin was shaken off balance by the sudden explosion and almost fell to the ground, and the train of thought in his brain was completely interrupted.
The violent explosion above their heads also reminded him that he...had no other choice.
"Old Ji! We can't wait any longer! If the fortress is gone, we can still build it again. If all the troops are gone, if the lives are gone, there will be nothing!"
"Isn't there a case in history where our Navy Department was forced to abandon a fortress and then rebuild it again? Don't hesitate any longer!"
The general who had just opened his mouth to dissuade Ji Chenlin could no longer hold it in any longer, strode up to Ji Chenlin and roared eagerly.
At this time, every minute and every second, some shipgirls' ships and equipment were severely damaged and lost their combat effectiveness.
Although at this time, relying on the strong fortress that has been continuously reinforced for a long time and the urgent use of Rubik's Cube energy robot soldiers to fight, no naval personnel have died from the Siren bombing.
But the seriously injured person still managed to reach triple digits under the siren's onslaught.
If the retreat is not ordered yet, let the Siren's artillery fire continue to press forward, and the area for rescuing the wounded will soon be covered!
Ji Chenlin looked at his old comrade in front of him, and he deeply understood this truth.
Yes, no matter what the siren's purpose was in driving them from the fortress to the city, he couldn't think about it now.
In the end, Ji Chenlin clenched his fists and said unwillingly:
"us……"
Before the heavy word "withdraw" was uttered, suddenly, the soldier in charge of observing the radar exclaimed with joy:
"Reinforcements! Generals, look at the radar! We have reinforcements coming!"
Upon hearing the good news, both Ji Chenlin and his old comrades in front of him, as well as the two generals who had never spoken, were shocked and ran to the radar screen.
On the radar screen, among the countless red dots, there were dozens of blue light dots.
This friendly fleet that penetrated deeply into the Siren fleet was like a sharp knife, directly piercing the encirclement of the Siren fleet, and annihilating all the surrounding Siren fleets at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, the explosions outside gradually disappeared, and the entire outside world of the fortress returned to calm.
In just a few minutes, most of the dense red dots representing the Siren fleet on the sea had dissipated. The remaining red dots no longer dared to approach the blue dots, but quickly dispersed.
"This...how is this possible? Does our ship girl have such exaggerated strength?"
Everyone in the entire temporary command center, including the four generals including Ji Chenlin, changed from a mixture of worry and joy at the beginning to dumbfounded shock.
You know, there are only a dozen blue dots on the radar, which means that there are only a dozen ship girls in this support force.
A dozen ship girls can completely destroy the huge siren fleet all over the sea. Even if there are no humanoid sirens, this is not something that the strength of a dozen ship girls can do!
All this has subverted the cognition of everyone present, and Ji Chenlin even wanted to ask the radar observer if there was something wrong with the radar equipment.
Why didn't they know that the ship girl could still have such fierce fighting power? !
