    "You are not willing to give in, and neither am I. But have you ever thought about it, the situation on the battlefield is very unfavorable to us now. Those Chinese submarines are quietly hiding in a corner, always ready to fire hundreds of more missiles at us.  torpedo.

    Are you sure we can avoid their torpedoes?  Are you sure that this fleet, which is now on the verge of collapse and about to be defeated, can still fight against the Chinese Pacific Fleet and the Australian Fleet?  "

    Kimmel¡¯s words were like a huge wave that hit Nimitz¡¯s heart hard.

    Especially the two words "defeat" bluntly told Nimitz that our fleet was about to be defeated.  China's two waves of torpedo attacks have caused them a lot of casualties. Many escort carriers have sunk or are on the way to sinking.

    Among other warships, such as heavy cruisers, light cruisers, destroyers, and frigates, heavy cruisers were better, with only a few sunk, but many light cruisers, destroyers, frigates, etc. were sunk.

    These warships are the escort force of this fleet, and they are also the capital to continue fighting. Don't think that the aircraft carrier is the focus, these warships are also the focus.

    Without the protection of these warships, a simple aircraft carrier formation cannot protect the safety of their fleet.  Once they no longer have the protection of these warships, other Chinese warships will have already rushed up.

    "Defeated?"

    Nimitz bit his lips tightly together. These two words were two words that he was unwilling to admit, let alone mention.

    Now, Kimmel, the chief of staff, brought it up in such a frank manner.

    Nimitz turned to look at the solemn expression on Kimmel's face and said, "Do you know that these two words will affect our current military morale?"

    Nimitz¡¯s words already sounded like he was trying to deal with Kimmel, and Kimmel also heard it.

    But he was not afraid. He looked at Nimitz and said, "But I'm telling the truth, right?"

    Kimmel paused before continuing: "Are you still denying this fact even now? Do you know that once our Pacific Fleet is defeated and its strength is greatly reduced, and the tragedy of the North Pacific Fleet is repeated, what will happen to the war?  What kind of change?"

    Nimitz did not speak, but his face was gloomy and terrifying. Of course he knew what changes would happen.

    By then, the United States will not have any naval force that can compete with the Chinese Pacific Fleet and the Australian Fleet for a period of time.

    And they could only huddle up near the Xiazhou Islands.  Then the Chinese Pacific Fleet and the Australian Fleet can besiege the Xiazhou Islands wantonly, and they can only rely on land and aviation to sign up.

    If China gets ruthless, they can even send troops to land on the Xiazhou Islands. By then, they can be said to be completely passive.

    After hearing this, Nimitz closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said: "Retreat! At the same time, send a message to the Army Airlines. Let them retreat as soon as possible and don't stay too long. I feel that China will soon.  The battle to capture the Bismarck Islands and the Solomon Islands has been launched!"

    Kimmel turned and left, but Nimitz stood there blankly, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart. Maybe he was thinking about what kind of punishment he would receive after this battle.

    Just when Kimmel was in a daze, a staff officer ran over quickly.

    "General, the reconnaissance plane came with news that a fleet is approaching us due south. They are four Chinese Tianshan-class battleships and some heavy cruisers.

    It is estimated that we are only twenty nautical miles away from our fleet now!  "

    "No more than twenty nautical miles apart?"

    Nimitz suddenly came to his senses again. He knew that China's Tianshan-class battleships were the Yamato-class battleships of the original island nation.

    The speed of this battleship is faster than many escort aircraft carriers in our own fleet.

    Because escort carriers are adapted from merchant ships, their own speed is not very good.

    "Order our cruisers and destroyers to come forward, and the other ships will immediately begin to retreat quickly. At the same time, send an order to the carrier-based aircraft on the front line to immediately evacuate in stages and return to the fleet!"

    Nimitz knew that it was really time to retreat. If they didn't retreat, they would really be left here.

    It¡¯s not that the Citigroup Pacific Fleet doesn¡¯t have battleships, it¡¯s just that their battleships are now in the Xiazhou Islands.  After all, Citigroup is not as wealthy as China, which uses battleships to escort aircraft carriers.

    "Commander, the Citigroup fleet has begun to retreat! What should we do? Should we launch another launch?"A torpedo?  "

    In a submarine on the seabed, a staff officer looked at Fang Fengchen and asked.

    "No rush! We have already launched two rounds, and the torpedoes carried on our submarine can still fire eleven more! Keep these eleven, don't launch them now, the Citigroup fleet is guarding us at this time.

    Let each submarine find its position again and prepare for the next attack!  "

    "yes!"

    An hour later, around five o¡¯clock in the afternoon.

    For the South Pacific region at this time, although five o'clock is afternoon and the sun is beginning to set, the sky has no tendency to get dark at all.

    At this time, in front of the Citi Navy fleet, there were four super battleships and more than ten other battleships rushing towards them.

    "Immediately accelerate forward, generate electricity for each ship at the same time, seize the T-shape, and launch an offensive formation. We must break through the Citi Army's defense line in the first round and rush into their fleet!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel  .com
