Although the fighter planes are already trying their best to intercept, the mission of the fleet is very heavy. It must defend and attack at the same time, and its number is limited. It is completely unable to intercept all the incoming cruise missiles.
In addition to ship-based anti-aircraft missiles and fighter jets, various types of helicopters also joined the interception ranks, cooperating with more than 500 Type 87 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns to violently block incoming cruise missiles.
More than 9,500 of the tens of thousands of incoming cruise missiles were destroyed, but the Japanese troops stationed in the Xincheng area still suffered an unprecedented attack.
Because the number of "Standard"-3s was limited, it was impossible to intercept all attacks from outside the atmosphere, so thousands of small missiles rained down on the defenseless Japanese troops.
These small missiles were not very powerful, and more caused chaos on the scene and fear among the Japanese soldiers.
The power of the cruise missile is not small, but it flies very slowly. The ship-borne "Phalanx", the Type 87 self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, and even the heavy machine gun on the vehicle can destroy it.
But the hundreds of ballistic missiles launched from eastern Australia are completely different. Due to their extremely fast terminal sprint speed, they are almost impossible to intercept.
It also caused the greatest damage to the fleet parked in the port. The two "Izumo" class aircraft carriers were hit by three ballistic missiles and turned into two large fireworks.
Another nine destroyers, twelve frigates, two supply ships and twenty-five captured merchant ships were severely damaged or sunk at the dock. These were all ships that had no time to leave the port.
After Shiren saw the tragic situation at the port, he was even glad that he did not put all his belongings in front of him. The outer sea was the main force of the fleet.
The airport was full of craters and could no longer support fighter planes to take off and take off. At most, it could accommodate F-35Bs and helicopters.
The port turned into a disaster scene again, with not only flames shooting into the sky, but also occasional explosions.
The sailors who were forced to jump into the sea were swimming desperately to the shore, with all kinds of debris and corpses floating on the water.
New Zealand may not be able to stay any longer because the fleet has already used up all its anti-aircraft missiles.
If the other party were to launch a large-scale missile attack, the fleet that he had finally recovered would be severely damaged again.
Shiren decided to retreat immediately. He heard that the military strength in the northern part of North America was not very strong. Maybe he could go there to take a look.
Another option is to go to the Middle East and find King David or the Prince of Persia. At least they can unite to defend against the enemy.
No matter what, we must retreat as soon as possible, otherwise we will be surrounded by the opponent here.
Even if he was not surrounded and killed by missiles, Shiren would not rest in peace.
Taking a BK-117 light multi-purpose helicopter, Shiren quickly boarded a "Whale" class conventionally powered submarine.
Submarines are now much safer than surface ships. As long as they are not discovered by the enemy, they can reach any place in the world.
Shiren's plan was to bypass Australia from the south of New Zealand, enter the Indian Ocean, and then go north to the Persian Gulf.
Whether it is landing in Persia or at the mouth of the two rivers, it is much safer than it is now.
As long as he is still alive and still has the summoning ability gifted by Amaterasu, he can make a comeback...
Shiren headed south with twelve submarines, while the surface ship force broke out to the northeast.
This arrangement can attract the enemy to the north as much as possible and buy Shiren more time to escape.
The Japanese troops on the shore must board the ship as soon as possible and prepare to evacuate.
The Japanese troops in the mountainous area had no time to retreat, so they could only be taken as prisoners.
Shi Ren can no longer care about so much, let's save his own life first.
There are not many aircraft left in the fleet, and the anti-aircraft missiles have been used up. In this case, if you don't run, you will die.
The fleet sailed north at full speed, as fast as it could go, while the submarine force moved silently south.
Even if an enemy ship is discovered, as long as the other party does not notice its own submarine, it will be treated as if it has not been seen.
At a critical moment, any flaw may lead to enemy siege.
"Report to the commander, the enemy fleet is fleeing north!"
"Let Zheng Guangying lead his troops to garrison the new city, and I will lead the rest of my troops to pursue them!"
The Zheng fleet is here to help, and it is not suitable for them to play a game of chasing and killing thousands of miles.
Jiexuan originally planned to have a classical naval battle with the opponent, but it seems that there is no such chance.
This shows that the previous saturation missile strikes were very effective, otherwise the opponent would not have fled in panic.
The destination of the enemy's escape is still unknown, but Jie Xuan will pursue him relentlessly and will not allow him to escape again.
The opponent ran from Japan to Hawaii, then captured Fiji, and then moved south to New Zealand.
If the oil stored on the island is not enough for the fleet to run a long distance again, then the Shiren fleet will not settle more than 5,000 kilometers away from the North Island.
The new city is about 7,000 nautical miles away from Panama and about 4,000 nautical miles away from Hawaii. The latter is more like the destination of the other party, otherwise the fleet may become a floating object on the sea due to exhaustion of fuel.
No matter what, our fleet is now less than 300 nautical miles away from the enemy fleet, and has sufficient fuel to carry out long-range pursuit missions.
Jiexuan ordered the slow-moving supply ships and merchant ships in the fleet to sail to the North Island, while the remaining warships headed north to pursue their prey at full speed.
The Japanese warships should have less fuel than our own warships, so it is likely that they will be forced to stop first.
If you don't want to get this result, you have to turn around and fight back...
But the aircraft carrier has no fighter planes, how to fight back?
The 21 F-35s that came back had only NSM anti-ship missiles left in their bomb bays, and all air-to-air missiles were fired.
Among them, 8 are F-35B, and the remaining 13 are F-35A that cannot take off and land vertically.
This means that when the Japanese fleet ran away, the total number of carrier-based aircraft on the six aircraft carriers was only a pitiful eight!
Moreover, there are not many anti-aircraft missiles and Phalanx shells left, and each destroyer or frigate is left with anti-ship missiles and anti-submarine torpedoes.
Once the opponent launches an air attack, the entire fleet's air defense capability will be almost zero!
The Japanese fleet did not have to wait for the opponent's fighter planes to fly over. The two "Glorious" class cruisers had already launched 32 P-700 "Granite" anti-ship missiles.
With an A-50 early warning aircraft serving as a relay station, this anti-ship missile has a range of up to 500 kilometers and a warhead of more than half a ton.
A "Granite" anti-ship missile can easily destroy a 10,000-ton warship, and a warship of several thousand tons can be directly blown up and turned into an aquarium.
At the same time, the "Baku" helicopter carrier also launched 12 carrier-based P-500 anti-ship missiles, from which the P-700 was improved.
Although these 36 anti-ship missiles are not large in number and do not have the ability to maneuver and change orbit, they are all supersonic and can be used as aircraft carrier killers.
The "Typhoon" fighters that were previously on board have flown to and landed at airports in the southern part of the North Island and the northern part of the South Island. After all the missiles mounted on them, they are of little use and can only be used as organ donors in the future.
The "Wang Jiu" fighter jets flying from eastern Australia reboarded the ship because they can use the "Harpoon" anti-ship missile with a range of hundreds of kilometers during pursuit.
Two hundred "Wang Jiu" fighter jets can fire four hundred "harbingers", which can completely make the opponent unable to eat.
Not only that, the bomber fleet that has returned safely can also be loaded with ammunition, and the "harpoon" can also be mounted without cruise missiles.
The five newly summoned Tu-22M3 and five Tu-160 bombers also participated in anti-ship operations, striving to completely eliminate the prey before it ran out of its combat radius.
The Ming army once again dispatched thousands of bombers to cooperate with the fleet to hunt down the remnants of the Japanese army.
No matter how slow a bomber flies, it is much faster than a surface ship. It takes less than four hours to enter the launch position after taking off from an Australian airport.
Even if the Japanese fleet sailed at full speed at thirty knots in four hours, it would only be able to cover more than a hundred nautical miles.
More importantly, they have been severely damaged and sunk more than ten warships by forty-four heavy anti-ship missiles...
The Ming Dynasty Air Force and Naval Air Force could clearly see the Japanese fleet forming a long snake formation along the way from high altitude.
These are all enemy ships that are sinking or about to sink. Before they die, they are like beacons on the sea emitting billowing black smoke.
The Japanese fleet has lost its medium and long-range air defense capabilities, and short-range air defense can only rely on "RAM" and "Phalanx".
Four hundred "Harpoon" anti-ship missiles were a disaster for them.
In the end, the Japanese fleet was completely wiped out in the waters about 180 nautical miles from the northeastern coast of North Island.
After bombers repeatedly circled and reconnaissance satellites confirmed that there was not a single enemy ship left in the sea area, Jiexuan chose to withdraw his troops and retreat.
By the way, Huang Ting was asked to take over the Fiji Islands. The coalition fleet that had captured them for a long time could go home and rest early. Their mission was successfully completed.
For Zhu Cixiang, more than half of the Japanese fleet was wiped out, but it was not completely wiped out.
Because he didn't receive Shiren's big gift package, it meant that the other party must have escaped on a submarine.
If you escape on a surface warship, you will most likely be discovered by satellites or patrol aircraft.
This product has the same routine as the two big gift packages in Australia or Indonesia, and you don’t know where it will land.
Zhu Cixiang believes that the other party can go to Alaska in North America, Patagonia, Western Sahara, Greenland, Magadan region in South America, etc.
There is another most suitable place, which is the only remaining area of melee - the Middle East!
The two big gift bags in Balkan didn't have much ability. They had been beaten into the ravine by Ibrahim, and they were probably not far from death.
After the two big gift bags in the Middle East joined forces, they became almost land overlords, repeatedly beating the Ottoman army trying to regain the lost territory.
Zhu Cihong estimated that Ibrahim had lost 200,000 troops in the Middle East. He was really taught a lesson.
If it weren't for his own help, North Africa, East Africa, and the Middle East would now be connected, but they would all belong to others.
If Shiren goes to the Middle East, that place will definitely be more lively than now, a proper Romance of the Three Kingdoms Ottoman...
Zhu Cihong deployed satellites at several places where Shiren might go to provide round-the-clock monitoring, which was equivalent to cameras.
A bunch of additional people were also dispatched to watch the screen 24 hours a day. If they found weapons and equipment similar to those of the Japanese army, they would report them immediately.
The nuclear bomb has been prepared for Shiren a long time ago. As long as he dares to come out again, a certain emperor will take him away directly.
Jiexuan's fleet temporarily returned to Australia for supplies and repairs, and could be dispatched again once an enemy fleet was discovered.
Zhu Cixiang had no good solution to the vast Indian Ocean, and it was impossible to go there to find a needle in a haystack.
But if Shiren's submarine wants to enter the heart of the Middle East, it must go through the Gulf of Aden and the Horn of Persia.
Sea and air forces can be deployed in these two places to increase search efforts in narrower waterways.
At the moment, Persia does not dare to fall out with the Ming Empire, otherwise it will be struck by thunder.
Regarding the war between Persia and the Ottomans, the Ming Empire held a neutral attitude and did not help the two.
Even if Ibrahim lost the entire peninsula, he still had parts of Europe and North and East Africa.
Zhu Cixiang just wanted to see if he could destroy King David. This was the biggest hidden danger.
If Persia does not take the initiative to attack the Horn of Persia, which belongs to the Ming Dynasty, then Zhu Cixiang can always regard himself as a spectator.
"When I come to Australia this time, in addition to helping you destroy the Japanese fleet, I also want to see how the situation is in Australia. Due to the use of super weapons in Kamchatka, Japan, Hawaii and other places, the collision of tectonic plates may have intensified. , which may cause natural disasters that last for several years, and you must be prepared accordingly. Then there is the global scope of natural disasters, that is, the various rebels have not been completely eliminated. Although Australia is in a corner, it has never been Look, we may be affected at special moments, so we must prepare armaments production just in case.”
Zhu Cixi will not stay in Australia for long, and will return to Minsk when the war is over.
"Yes, I obey your order!"
The eldest son Zhu Xiangtang was so frightened by this battle that he broke into a cold sweat. If his father hadn't come to supervise the battle, Australia would have been affected by the war.
In early February, the newly summoned fleets of Britain, India, Russia, and Spain, as well as the personnel and equipment of the army and air force, were handed over to Huang Ting to command.
Jiexuan took part of the fleet back to Europe via the Cape of Good Hope. The Suez Canal is not yet accessible. It would be too embarrassing if it was blocked.
Zhu Cixiang exchanged a large number of pickle cars in Citizen (Port Hedland) and Aluminum City (Perth), the two largest car factories in Australia and even Southeast Asia and South Asia.
Including seven models: Genesis G90, GV80, G8, Hyundai MPV Cruise, large SUV Paristi, Kia large SUV Jiahua, and Ssangyong Pickup Crest.
More than 100,000 vehicles have been exchanged, so it’s time to reward those who have made meritorious deeds.
Doosan's construction machinery has also been exchanged for a bunch of equipment, which can improve mining efficiency.
Australia can also produce computers and mobile phones, so upgrading to Samsung level is not a problem.
All spare parts for the exchanged products will be shipped from the mainland to Australia and surrounding vassal states within three months.
Whether it’s a car or a mobile phone, as long as you use it carefully, it’s not that easy to break.
When reverse imitation is successful, local factories in Australia can also produce parts for these gadgets.
Excluding Huang Ting's fleet, Zhu Cixiang left a battle group including six aircraft carriers in Australia, which can ensure the safety of the surrounding waters.
There are also eight newly summoned squadrons of "Typhoons", Su-30MKI, "Tornado", Su-30SM2, Su-34, Su-35, Su-57, MiG-35 and Su-25, MiG- 27. Four squadrons each of "Jaguar" attack aircraft.
On land, there are three battalions each of T-14, T-90M, T-90S, Challenger-3, and Leopard II-E main battle tanks, and one battalion each of S-350 and S-400 air defense systems.
It can be said that these weapons have given the eldest son confidence in defending Australia. No matter how powerful the rebels are, they can't withstand the siege of the Ming Dynasty's navy, land and air force!
