In the conference room of the Annan Empire's military headquarters.
"Trash, all of you are trash.”The commander of the Annan Empire, Ruan Minghui, kept cursing. His expression was so ugly that it was as if he had been cuckolded.
Those were the four warships that they had received from the foreign devils. They were huge in weight and had strong firepower, and they had thrown the Fire Country's small warships by who knows how many streets.
But now?
A fleet of four such warships had been completely annihilated in a short period of time, and one of them had been captured. So, why was he angry?
The other guys present also had gloomy expressions.
This blow was too great.
They had thought that after defeating the foreign devils, even if they could not become the kings of the world, they would have no problem doing whatever they wanted in this area. But damn it, now they had been splashed with a basin of cold water by the Fire Country, giving them a cold chill that pierced through their hearts.
"Those Fire Country people are crazy. They fired heavy depth charges from tens of meters away. This is a method of mutual mutual destruction. And in the end, they actually hit the ship with the cannon fire and then attacked with submachine guns and grenades.”
The Annan Navy's rear admiral who was seated at the table said, his voice filled with fear. The Fire Country's navy was really more desperate than the desperate Saburo, completely not treating their lives as their own.
A bunch of lunatics.
Ruan Minghui and the others were also filled with fear.
In the past, they only knew that the Fire Country's army was crazy and did not care about their lives when they fought. Who knew that the navy would be so crazy as well?
Whoosh.
Taking a deep breath, Ruan Minghui calmed down and asked,"How long will it take for the navy's reinforcements to arrive?”
"The fleet has already assembled and will be able to set off in another hour. However, the Fire Country's reinforcements have also set off. One thing that can be confirmed is that the Fire Country has sent over a large number of frigates and destroyer from their other two fleets.”A rear admiral replied.
Crack.
Ruan Minghui clenched his fists tightly.
If it was in the past, they would definitely not be afraid of anything. However, four large warships were easily taken care of. This made them feel really uncertain.
Ruan Minghui turned around and looked at the Air Force general beside him."Can't the Air Force deploy fighter jets to cover us?”
This?
After a moment of hesitation, the lieutenant general in charge of the air force said,"It's very difficult. Our fighter aircraft's performance is outdated. Even if we manage to fly over, we don't have any experience in attacking ships.”
Attacking warships and land targets were two different things. Without specialized learning and practice, it was very difficult to blow up warships in the vast sea, especially small warships.
What was more important?
It was because their Air Force did not have the confidence to fight the Fire Country's Air Force head-on. Their pilots lacked practice and their planes were all old goods left behind by the foreigners. Flying them over was no different from a coffin in the air, they would definitely be sending their heads off.
Bang!
Ruan Minghui slammed his fist on the conference table."This won't do, that won't do. Are we just going to let it go?”
Silence.
None of the people present spoke.
The truth was already out there. What could they say?
After a while, Ruan Minghui still had no other way. They could not just go to war with the Fire Country like this. They were not prepared for this.
"Prepare to negotiate with the Fire Country." In the end, he could only say helplessly.
"Yes."
The group of people felt so aggrieved that they wanted to vomit blood.
They had thought that they would definitely be able to make the Fire Country suffer a loss this time and once again raise the might of their Empire.
But what was the result?
Having been slapped by the Fire Country, they had no choice but to admit defeat. So how could they not feel so aggrieved that they wanted to vomit blood?
However, they definitely wouldn't let it go so easily. They would definitely take revenge in the future.

On the other side, on the sea near Golden Spring Island.
Two frigates, a few Type 037 sub-hunting vessels, a huge formation of torpedoes and transport ships were slowly approaching.
"Captain, the reinforcement fleet has arrived.”
"Yes."
Yang Dingtian nodded. He saw it too.
The leading frigate was the Type 65 frigate, the strongest warship of the Southern Squadron. It was also a self-designed frigate that was built using all the equipment and materials made in China.
It was 90.0 meters long and 10.2 meters wide. It had a displacement of 1,249.5 tons, a maximum speed of 23 knots, a cruising range of 2700 nautical miles(16 knots, a wind resistance of 8, and a self-sustaining power of 10 days.
It was equipped with three 100mm single-barrel cannons, four 37mm double-barrel cannons, two 250mm five-barrel anti-submarine rocket launchers, and four 432mm six-barrel depth bomb launchers.
The Torpedo Boats were Type 026, and could be considered the best weapons of the Fire Country's Navy. They were 21.8 meters long and 6.3 meters wide, with a standard displacement of 39 tons, a speed of 55 knots, equipped with 2 533mm Torpedo Tubes, 14.5mm Dual Machine Guns, and 25mm Dual Cannons.
The biggest advantage of the Torpedo Boat was its power. If Yang Dingtian had brought it with him previously, he could have used a single heavy torpedoes to penetrate the soul and kill one of the boats.
Of course, the disadvantages were also obvious. It was not seaworthy, and it was difficult to deal with sea conditions above level three. The radius of activity was small. If they ran from the base to this place, they would definitely not be able to return without replenishing their fuel.
"Did they really capture the enemy ship?"
"F * ck, Boat 681 is too awesome.”
"I can't accept it,"
"Yes, I am."
When they saw the No. 16 warship of the Annan Empire anchored on the surface of the sea, the support fleet immediately exclaimed.
They had only heard about it before, but now that they had seen it for themselves, the shock was incomparable. In modern naval warfare, it was too difficult to capture such a complete enemy ship.
What was the most important thing?
Yang Dingtian and the others were driving a small warship.
Sob, sob, sob.
Soon, a long whistle sounded, echoing between heaven and earth.
This was the support fleet's tribute to the heroic fleet.
"I'm from the 231st squadron. I'm here to provide support under the orders of the Southern Fleet's command. Now, you can return. We'll be responsible for the following combat missions.”
Soon, the contact came.
Yang Dingtian, who was holding the phone, took a deep breath."681 formation received. We are about to return. I wish you a great victory and a triumphant return."”
"I definitely will. See you later."
"See you later."
After ending the communication, Yang Dingtian immediately gave the order to return.
Ship 682, Ship 385, Ship 387, and the captured ship of the Annan Empire, Ship 16, set off for the southern fleet's home port.
Boat 688 had to wait for the tugboat to arrive before it could be pulled back.
On the way back, he saw some fleets and fishing boats that came to support him.
That's right, it was a fishing boat.
The large fishing boats were used to transport the landing troops and the Fire Country's navy did not have any decent landing ships or transport ships and would often recruit fishing boats to participate in operations.
Everything went smoothly.
After nearly 30 hours of sailing, the formation returned to the southern fleet's home port in the afternoon of the next day.
"Captain, look."
What was that?
Upon hearing Lin Sanbao's voice, Yang Dingtian, who had just woken up from his nap, immediately looked up.
