12 nautical miles north of Emerald Island.
On the vast sea, the First Fleet, known as the "strongest fleet" of the Republic of China, became chaotic at this time.
The warships that were originally speeding forward now slowed down.
At the same time, it can be clearly seen that several small frigates at the rear are accelerating forward and coming to the front of the fleet.
Immediately afterwards, the huge cannons on these frigates were suddenly aimed at the sky, and bursts of sharp screams were heard from their constantly rotating radars.
It is obvious that these ships carrying out escort missions are trying hard to search for all threats from the outside world.
As for the other warships, they scattered in all directions, acting as if they were trying to escape.
In the combat command cabin of the first ship of the First Fleet, Kim Jong-min had a serious expression on his face and asked the adjutant beside him: "Have you found out? Tell me what these flying things are?"
Kim Jong-min still finds it hard to believe the high-speed flying object shown on the radar screen.
As far as he knew, there seemed to be no such advanced positioning and tracking missiles in the world today that could hit enemy targets at such a long distance. This was absolutely unimaginable.
What made him even more panic was that the flying object on the radar was flying so fast that it was approaching the sea area where their fleet was located at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Is this really a long-range missile launched by the Emerald Island fleet
With negative expectations in his eyes, Kim Jong-min stared at the adjutant in front of him.
"Sir, this... this is most likely an enemy missile. I think we should do our best to intercept it!"
The adjutant spoke weakly.
When Kim Jong-min heard the adjutant's answer, his eyebrows stood up in anger.
nonsense!
Of course he knew that he had to do his best to intercept it, but the key point was, could an ordinary frigate intercept a missile with such a fast speed
"Report to the commander, we have spotted a moving object in the water 7 miles ahead, it is suspected to be an enemy torpedo. Oops, these torpedoes are too fast, we are going to be hit!"
Before Kim Jong-min could say anything, another anxious report came.
"What did you say? Where did the torpedo come from?"
However, at this moment, a huge explosion suddenly resounded across the entire sea, causing a buzzing sound in the air.
The first ship where Kim Jong-min was on board slowly calmed down after a violent shaking.
"What happened?"
Kim Jong-min, still in shock, hurriedly asked the adjutant beside him.
"Sir, look there." The adjutant beside him calmed himself down a little, then quickly raised his finger and pointed outside the porthole.
Looking in the direction pointed by the adjutant, Kim Jong-min immediately discovered that a frigate of his fleet had turned into a rolling fireball.
It can also be seen that the entire warship has been broken into two parts in the middle, and as the flames burn, it tends to slowly sink.
"The Antian was attacked by a torpedo and is about to sink!"
"Shibasmida!"
Seeing that the latest model of frigate under his command was easily sunk by the opponent before it had a chance to demonstrate its power in front of the world, Kim Jong-min's face twisted together with a vicious look on his face!
"Fight back! Fight back!"
The next moment, he swung his fist fiercely, then shouted at his adjutant to order a counterattack.
At this time, he no longer thought about threatening Emerald Island with force, but wanted to avenge the naval soldiers of the Republic of China who died in the line of duty.
"boom!"
“Boom boom!”
However, before the adjutant had time to issue any orders, loud noises came from all around.
Feeling the violent ups and downs of the sea, Kim Jong-min looked out along the side of the boat with disbelief in his eyes.
It was seen that one after another of the warships under the command were attacked by artillery shells from an unknown direction. Flames were blazing on the hulls and the aftermath of the explosion destroyed all the facilities on the ship.
Those soldiers who had managed to survive were jumping into the sea one by one. The scene looked extremely miserable.
Seeing this scene, Kim Jong-min, the commander of the entire fleet, was completely stunned, his eyes full of disbelief.
Once upon a time, the fleet of the Republic of China was one of the most powerful fleets in the world.
However, looking at the First Fleet being defeated before even seeing its opponent, Kim Jong-min felt that everything was so unreal.
The sound of explosions continued in his ears, as did the cries for help and screams from the warships and the sea. But to Kim Jong-min, it made him feel like he had lost his soul, and he was in so much pain that he could not utter a sound.
"It's over! The Republic of China is over!"
At this moment, he could only make such an unwilling voice in his heart.
From starting out with full of military ambitions to being defeated now, everything happened in just a few hours. However, the result was so different that the usually arrogant Korean fleet commander could not accept it no matter what.
It was at this time that Kim Jong-min truly realized how vulnerable the so-called invincible army of the Republic of China was in front of the Emerald Island.
The other side didn't even really show up, but used a few long-range missiles and high-speed torpedoes to tear them apart.
At this time, Kim Jong-min remembered the instructions given to him by Crown Prince Lee Zairong before he left.
"The glory of the Republic of China must not be tarnished by anyone!"
Thinking of this, a silly smile appeared on Kim Jong-min's face, but another huge cannon sounded in his ears!
…
at the same time.
Laputa City.
The official press conference is held in the banquet hall on the top floor of the Endless Building.
On the huge 3D LCD screen, the scene of the attack on the First Fleet of Han was fully presented.
The first frigate was hit by a torpedo and then broke into two and sank to the bottom of the sea. Then the second frigate exploded... the third one, and then the other battleships and cruisers...
Under the attack of shells falling from the sky or torpedoes emerging from the bottom of the sea, the Han fleet, which was once considered extremely powerful in everyone's mind, was sunk to the bottom of the sea without even launching the slightest counterattack.
The entire battle process will never last more than ten minutes.
However, during these ten minutes, the expressions of the media reporters present were very interesting.
From the initial confusion, to the subsequent surprise, to shock and disbelief, everyone's face clearly revealed the disbelief at the speed at which the Han fleet was destroyed.
