Chapter 10: Battle Preparation in the Philippine Sea - (1)

The Indian Ocean Precedence First Fleet.

Commonly known as the Indian Ocean Fleet.

It is the worlds second-largest naval fleet, representing the absolute military power of the World United Government.

Over the past eighty years, it, along with the other two major fleets, has deterred countless petty individuals attempting to split from the United Government.

Although the main fleet has never fired a shot in direct combat, it still hangs like the sword of Damocles over the heads of separatists.

And today, it will unleash its wrath upon the creature that has killed more humans than any other in the world, transforming the looming sword into a tangible strike.

Nine superconductive magnetohydrodynamic propulsion submarines serve as the main combat force, supported by five anti-submarine destroyers and seven missile destroyers as secondary forces.

Eight anti-submarine frigates and twenty-two missile frigates form the encirclement, supplemented by three main aircraft carriers, totaling fifty-four ships with a total displacement exceeding 500,000 tons.

This formidable fleet advances at a speed exceeding 50 knots toward Godzillas location, passing through the Nemuro Strait.

Navigating the vast Pacific Ocean, they head to intercept their target at the fastest speed possible.

They must not allow it to approach Tokyo!

Twelve hours later, 300 kilometers from Tokyo Bay, at the junction of the Philippine Sea and the Pacific Ocean, inside the command center of the Indian Ocean Fleets flagship carrier.

Commander, Godzilla is now within range of our main fleet. Should we launch the attack now?

They started asking if they should initiate the attack as soon as Godzilla entered the range of their anti-submarine missiles.

Commander Huang, present in the command center, nodded as he looked at the projected image of Godzillas body and said:

Launch the attack. The entire fleet will follow the preliminary operational plan discussed earlier. Surround it according to the plan, prioritizing long-range engagement. Pound it to pieces outside of its range.

Yes, sir!

The fleet was well-prepared for this.

During the twelve hours leading up to the arrival of the Indian Ocean Fleet, detailed operational plans were formulated based on real-time satellite imagery, landing images from previous days, and a series of recommendations from overseas titan experts and weapon specialists.

With the nuclear submarines as the core force, they would conduct primary attacks within a range of 5 nautical miles using large torpedoes. Simultaneously, they would deploy a large number of naval mines in the deep sea surrounding Godzilla, forcing it to endure saturation attacks in shallow waters.

The destroyers would serve as secondary forces, maintaining a distance of 15 nautical miles for anti-submarine strikes when Godzilla reached shallow waters.

They would drive Godzilla away, repelling it head-on through high-speed torpedoes from unmanned submarines, unmanned drones armed with small missiles, and anti-submarine missiles.

Their objective was to make it leave the waters near Tokyo and head towards deeper parts of the Pacific Ocean.

The frigates would split into two groups, with one group maintaining a frontal firepower position at a distance of 30 nautical miles, while the other group would flank Godzilla, placing more heavy mines behind it, preventing it from returning to the trench and escaping.

Finally, the aircraft carrier, acting as the command center, would be guarded by the escorting frigates. Utilizing unmanned drones, they would drop heavy bombs, delivering a fatal blow when Godzilla resurfaced in shallow waters.

All units, open fire!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

With the order from the commander-in-chief, all fifty-one warships simultaneously launched their entire payload of anti-submarine missiles from their launchers.

Over a hundred anti-submarine missiles, each carrying a 400mm torpedo with a whopping 80 kilograms of explosive material, propelled at twice the speed of sound from the warships. These torpedoes utilized immensely powerful anionic salts as their explosive charges.

The power, range, speed, and accuracy of these missiles far surpassed those of the pre-war anti-submarine missiles.

More than a hundred anti-submarine missiles streaked across the sky, leaving behind magnificent trails. They resembled over a hundred arrows piercing through the heavens, traversing the atmosphere at an incredible speed.

About to hit the target, five, four, three, two

One! Direct hit!

On the satellite imagery, numerous black dots swiftly passed through the area of the sea where Godzillas body was located. The missiles descended from the sky and plunged into the water, generating several-meter-high water columns directly above the spot where Godzillas figure resided. The impact made the shadow beneath the water clearer.

This was evidence of the missiles hitting their target.

Whats Godzillas reaction? Did it slow down?

The shadow representing Godzilla darkened once again, indicating that it was undisturbed and still moving slowly beneath the water.

Although everyone anticipated that this wave of attacks wouldnt severely harm it, seeing it first hand couldnt help but weigh on their hearts.

Could this truly be considered a living being? Could any creature remain unaffected by such an onslaught?

These thoughts flashed through everyones minds, and at the same time, the personnel in the command center began accessing satellite measurements to determine if there were any changes in Godzillas behavior after enduring this saturation attack.

No change in speed, no change in direction, no change in depth Could it be that the previous attack didnt even qualify as a disturbance for it?

This was an explosive charge using anionic salts

Although there was a significant difference compared to the medias exaggerated claim of being 100 times more powerful, it was still several times or even ten times stronger than TNT explosives.

Over a hundred missiles of this kind could flatten all the buildings within a 300-meter-diameter circle in a city.

But now, this powerful weapon seemed to have no effect on this creature.

Report to the commander, there have been no changes on the enemys side No deceleration or diving behavior, no signs of being intimidated.

An observer reported to the overall commander, deviating slightly from the original plan. According to their formulated plan, while Godzilla wouldnt be heavily injured, it was supposed to sink into the depths after the attack.

Titanic creatures possess this intelligence. They can discern that the threat comes from the sky, so in order to evade it, they choose to dive.

Is that so Stick to the original plan. Its failure to dive is actually advantageous for us. Destroyers and nuclear submarines advance, and well provide support from the periphery. Start bombing with unmanned drones now. We need to inflict significant damage on it before it dives.

We must exterminate it.

Yes!

After the first wave of attacks, the fleet initiated the second round of assault.

A total of 150 unmanned carrier-based bombers, accompanied by 30 military unmanned submarines, closed in on Godzilla ahead of the main force.

They would carry torpedoes far more powerful than before to strike Godzilla.

According to the original plan, they aimed to kill Godzilla outside the Japanese archipelago.

The Battle of the Philippine Sea officially began!
