While Van Kruse was thinking about his future, Yangmu I received another bad news from the front line at the same time.
His fleet suffered a heavy blow... The coalition fleet deployed outside Rewind Port was attacked by the Tang army, and there is still no definite news about it.
However, they received some intermittent reports from the continuous interference, saying that they were being attacked and had suffered heavy losses.
It's not like the elves haven't thought about providing support, but they really don't have the ability to send out enough force to deter the Tang Empire's navy.
The Yangmu Empire's air force was confused after receiving the order. They didn't even know where the enemy was, and they actually wanted to dispatch planes to "seek a decisive battle." No matter how it looked, it seemed like they were going to die.
The intelligence is simply not enough to support the Air Force to take off aircraft to the war zone, because not many pilots in the Air Force have learned maritime navigation. They fly over the endless sea, and they are basically no different from blind people.
Radio navigation is basically of no use. Since communications have been interfered with, there is no need to guess whether the aircraft formation can receive the radio signals transmitted by the ground signal station. When the time comes, who is responsible for whether the aircraft flies out and cannot fly back?
This is still a small difficulty in the early stage. If you think about it further, the difficulties seem to be even more: if you fly out and fail to find the enemy fleet, you will be busy here in vain and miss the best opportunity to rescue the navy.
,what to do?
So what if the aircraft formation flew out and happened to find the Tang Army's fleet, but the Tang Army's aircraft couldn't beat it, so what should I do if I buy one, get one free, and lose a group of elite pilots and advanced fighter jets?
The two sides have already fought on the front line. It is a secret that everyone knows that the 104 fighter jets equipped by the Elf can't defeat the Tang Army's Flying Shark Yinglong. Counting dozens of 104s to attack the Tang Army's fleet looks like it from every aspect.
Just kidding.
In short, the Air Force has so many excuses that it can't fit in a truck, but it is an undeniable fact that the Navy has been beaten. Everyone is in a dilemma now, but His Majesty's order makes it difficult for the Air Force to evade.
Finally, a staff officer from the Air Force Command who had studied abroad in the Tang Empire came up with a solution that satisfied everyone: take off a reconnaissance plane to find the enemy fleet!
Get some cheap, bulky, less expensive transport planes to show off. This can be regarded as an explanation to His Majesty the Emperor, and it can be regarded as worthy of the naval brothers who are fighting fiercely.
So, after the Air Force got the news that the Navy was attacked, it delayed for more than 2 hours and finally came up with a plan that seemed to be reliable. It took off more than 30 reconnaissance planes and flew along its own route.
A search was launched along the coastline.
Most of these aircraft are modified from Type 47 transport aircraft, with a long range and more advanced communication equipment. In short, based on the losses of these reconnaissance aircraft, the Air Force can probably determine the location of the Tang Navy fleet.
"Your Majesty, if something happens to the fleet, our port will be in danger." The elf prime minister has begun to worry about his own port problem.
Their Yangmu Empire was a big seafaring power a hundred years ago, which is why John met the Tang Group while driving a ship for business. Now that there is a crisis in both Rewind Port and Osa Port, the economy of the Elf Empire will easily collapse.
problem appear.
Once the sea transportation stops, the elven empire's freight turnover speed will decrease, and the wealthy coastal areas will fall into war, which will make the elves' economic difficulties even worse.
"What can I do? You can't let me send a telegram to Tang Mo, asking him not to attack our port city?" Yang Mu I asked irritably. He was already very worried.
The 2nd Army was defeated and the 3rd Army was destroyed. The elves have begun to mobilize the country, and this process is not going smoothly.
Many elves were very unhappy about fighting for the dwarves. They were unwilling to fight against their former ally, the Tang Empire, especially since such a war was fought on behalf of the dwarves.
However, the order to mobilize has been issued, so the elf troops are expanding very quickly. About three army groups are close to being formed, and another three group armies have also built their skeletons.
This speed is actually very satisfactory, but the loss of frontline troops seems to be faster. Yangmu I has ordered the 4th and 5th Army Groups to move to the territory of the Ice Empire, and the 6th Group Army has also been ordered to move north
Drive in.
Reinforcing three armies at once is already the limit of the elves' capacity. They want to ensure that the logistics of the troops extend to the territory of the Ice Empire, rather than just sending their own soldiers to the front line to complete the task.
Don't forget that there are two armies of the Susus Empire that are using the elves' road transportation network to go north. They occupy part of the transportation capacity, and they are really blocking the road no matter how lightly equipped they are.
"Peace is probably out of the question. The two armies heading north from Sussus have joined our troops. With hundreds of thousands of troops... we should be able to stabilize the situation on the front line, right?" Compared to the previous conflict between the elves and dwarves,
After all, this time the elves and dwarves were fighting with all their strength. Therefore, Yangmu I asked feebly.
He was not only asking his prime minister, but he also seemed to be using the question to comfort himself: He had already mobilized so many troops, and the situation should be better after all.
The dwarves not only sent the newly formed 11th and 12th armies to the front line, but also mobilized the 13th and 14th units, which had no actual combat experience at all.
Although these troops have not completed formal training and their combat effectiveness is not impressive, they are still hundreds of thousands of people, and judging from their scale, they can at least be consumed for a while.
"The loss of the fleet has been considered before, so it is not a big deal. However, Your Majesty, we have not considered that the 2nd Army will be defeated so quickly..." The prime minister was a little anxious. The current situation can be said to be very harmful to the elves.
Not good.
Originally, the position of the 2nd Army was less than 200 kilometers away from Everwinter City. As long as they made a sudden move forward, it was possible to recapture Everwinter Port. This was the key to the victory of the coalition forces, and it was the only one they had in their hands before.
Card.
Now that the 2nd Army has been defeated, the Tang Army has advanced southward along the coastline, and it has become impossible to recapture Yongdong Port.
The Tang army will definitely repair the port and stabilize logistics and transportation... Under this premise, what can the coalition do even if it really has a million troops?
