The headquarters of the fleet crossed the fleet received the landing troops around 6 pm. Although there were no detailed results at this time, it was certain that a major victory was achieved. Although there were nearly six hours left before the fleet, the news of victory was always inspiring. Before the war, it not only greatly improved the morale of the fleet, but also inspired the fighting spirit of the soldiers, so that the landing troops could not be compared.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of each ship were preparing for the night battle. In addition to checking the weapons and equipment systems of the warships, they just took the time to sleep. Because this battle started from the 12th evening, it was estimated that it would last for a night, so it was necessary to rest well. There was still enough energy to fight at night, so the soldiers on each ship took turns to sleep and rest.

On the Kunming ship, the three people from the Fleet Command were not idle. Although the combat plan had been formulated, Xia Bohai and Xiao Jianjun were still not relieved. At this time, the two were using war chess to deduce the battle, hoping to find out the shortcomings of the plan and find a countermeasure to strive to win at the best price.

Qin Zheng was the political commissar, and fighting was not his main consideration. At this time, he was thinking mainly about combat work. After the Dagukou was captured and the troops landed, how to carry out their work. Although this work was handed over to the accompanying government personnel at the daytime meeting, he could not completely rely on government personnel and he had his own ideas. Although soldiers cannot interfere in politics, it does not mean that soldiers do not understand politics. Qin Zheng still has some ideas about how to establish his own base.

Although time was hard to bear, the alternation of rest and work still passed minute by minute. After dinner, the three of them took turns to sleep for a while to cultivate their energy for the battle at night. At half past the evening, they were woken up by the guards on time. After a simple washing up, the three of them came to the command room and sat in their own position.

Shang Jinfeng, the captain of the Kunming ship, reported to the three that the Kunming ship was fully prepared and could set off at any time.

After listening to Shang Jinfeng's report, Xia Bohai bowed his head and said, "Connect with other ships and ask how they are all prepared?"

After a while, the Kunming ship received reply from the other five warships, and each warship had been fully prepared. Then Xia Bohai connected to the Taihu ship left behind and the remaining personnel on the three passenger and rolling ships. The result was that everything was good. Xia Bohai was very satisfied with this, so he ordered the fleet to set off.

So under the night sky full of stars, the Kunming ship started first and headed northwest. The Yueyang ship, Sanya ship, Xiangyang ship, Huaihua ship and Changbaishan ship followed one after another, maintaining a distance of 800 to 1,000 meters between each ship. In order to maintain the secrecy of the fleet, all warships extinguished the lights outside the ship and gradually disappeared into the darkness.

Although the light of stars and moon shines at night, the sea is not pitch black, but the visibility is no more than one hundred meters. This visibility is basically a blind journey for navigation, and once a danger is discovered, it cannot be avoided. However, the route has been clearly detected by unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and each ship has turned on its own sea and air search radar, and the sea surface is actually not visible. Therefore, although it is sailing in the dark, it is still like daytime.

Although the lights were on in the command center of the Kunming ship, the soldiers were busy at this time. Only a few dolls whispered, but they also spoke in a low voice. For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire command room was quite dull, and they could only hear the sound of the keyboard and the sound of the computer prompts.

However, this is normal, because the atmosphere before the war is often the most dull. Although the Kunming ship is the most technical surface ship in China, it has not been in service for a long time. It is still in the running-in period after service. It mainly conducts test training, and in actual use experience, it is much worse than other warships. This time, it is the first time that the Kunming ship has carried out ocean-going missions, not to mention practical experience. Although the other warships have no practical experience, they all use mature systems and equipment, and have participated in many military exercises before and performed escort missions in the Gulf of Aden.

Xia Bohai and the other three had no conversation at this time, but they only exchanged their eyes occasionally. It was not that the three of them had nothing to say, but that they had prepared for this battle. There were a lot of things after the war, but now no one has the mood to discuss, and they just waited for the battle to be over.

And in the dull atmosphere, the Kunming ship's nautical chart kept reminding everyone that the fleet was approaching step by step from the scheduled battlefield.

The convoy drove for more than two times at a speed of 20 knots and finally approached about 30 kilometers of Dagukou Wharf. Although it had not entered the scheduled battlefield, the signals of the ships anchored at Dagukou Wharf were clearly displayed on the radar of the Kunming ship. At the same time, Xia Bohai ordered the takeoff of the drone to monitor the situation of the docks and forts in Dagukou in the air.

The Kunming ship has a large hull, carrying a Z0 carrier-based helicopter and two z-000 fixed-wing carrier-based unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. After the drone was launched, the fleet's fleet also changed, from a column to a side-by-side horizontal formation. The ships were still about one thousand meters apart, spreading horizontally, and traveling at a speed of 15 knots.

More than ten minutes later, the z-000 unmanned reconnaissance aircraft returned to the dock image taken from the sky above Dagukou. The z-000 unmanned reconnaissance aircraft was developed by Guizhou Aviation Industry Group UAV Center. It officially appeared in public during the 4th China Zhuhai Air Show in 2000. It successfully flew on January 6, 2000 and completed the onboard remote sensing system test in August 2004. It is the first drone produced in China in truly industrialized.

The z-000 drone is based on the American Global Hawk drone, with a "V"-shaped tail wing and a turbofan engine at the rear fuselage, which has excellent stealth performance. However, the z-000 is relatively large, with a length of 7.5 meters, a wingspan of 9.8 meters, a short range, and a lasting time of only a time, with a ceiling of 18,000 meters and a maximum speed of 800 kilometers per hour.

However, the function of the z-000 drone is roughly the same as that of the Global Hawk. It is equipped with satellite communication equipment, thermal imaging cameras and synthetic aperture radars. It can provide real-time war zone images and electronic intelligence to the command center through satellites in all day and all weather conditions, and complete reconnaissance and surveillance tasks. Its reconnaissance data is transmitted to the outside world through satellite communication antennas in the nose. It can also use rockets to boost takeoff and parachute landing, which is suitable for carrier-based unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

Kunming ships are not equipped with imaging radars, so identifying warships is usually based on electronic signals and radar reflected signals. Nowadays, most of the ship types of warships adopt some radar stealth designs. Of course, a few warships have full stealth designs. The radar reflective signals are weak, and most of them rely on electric signals to identify warships. After all, modern warships have too many electrical equipment, and they cannot turn around without electronic devices. However, there are only electric lights in the warships in this era, but of course there is no radar stealth design. On the contrary, due to the large number of warships in this era, the number of masts, these are very obvious targets for radar signals.

During the day, the fleet sent drones to reconnaissance of the Eight-Nation Alliance warships anchored at Dagukou, mainly collecting radar signals from each ship and transmitting them to the host of the Kunming ship. At this time, the Kunming ship compared and matched the signals scanned by the radar with the existing signals, and then cooperated with the aerial monitoring of the z-000 drone to determine the positions of each ship berthed at the dock.

After the fleet advanced about ten kilometers, the host of the Kunming ship had already identified all the radar signals. On the large display screen in the center of the command room, the signal distribution map of all ships anchored at the dock was displayed, and all warships were named. On the other display screen, the aerial footage sent back by the drone was displayed. Although it was taken with night vision technology, it could be seen generally clearly. At the same time, the Kunming ship transmitted the picture to other ships, so the entire battlefield was now clear.

At this time, forty-seven ships were moored at Dagukou Wharf, including twenty-two warships, and each ship was distributed according to each country, arranged at a distance of more than 2,000 meters. Among them, Russia had the largest ships, with a total of eleven warships and six warships, followed by Japan, with a total of seven ships and two warships. Of course, if it were not for the crossing fleet that wiped out the Japanese cruise fleet, then Japan should have the largest ships.

In addition, the drone also sent back the scanned heat signals, indicating the activity of the ship and the docks. However, most of the heat signals are basically in a stop state, and only a few are active. It is obvious that most of the soldiers and crew members on the ship are sleeping at this time. Of course, this is also normal, because it was more than two o'clock in the morning, and most people naturally fell asleep at this time.

The six warships slowly slowed down and stopped on the sea. At this time, Liu Chunliang, a signalman on the Kunming ship, reported that the distance between the fleet and the dock is about 0.4 kilometers.

Shang Jinfeng said: "Commander, political commissar, chief of staff, and Haihongqi 9 missiles have been prepared. The targets of the Sissoi battleship and the Russian armored cruiser, please order the command to be launched at any time."

Just as he was sitting, on a display screen in the command room, the two largest targets of the fleet in this battle, the Russian Battleship Sissoi and the Russian Armored Cruiser. At this time, these two 10,000-ton giant ships were quietly anchoring on the sea, like two big fish.
