During the combat inventory at that time, it was discovered that only naval soldiers below the rank of captain in the fleet abandoned the ship and escaped.

All three captains chose to sink with the ship.

Although they had been mentally prepared for this, when the news of the battle really reached the naval headquarters, a shadow still loomed over the hearts of every officer.

The sea area suffered heavy losses.

As for the Flower District, although the ship capture operation was unsuccessful, salvage operations could still be carried out in the harbor using salvage ships afterwards.

It's just a little troublesome and takes a little effort.

Every ship in the navy is extremely expensive, and strict economy must be practiced.

This kind of warship salvaged from the water may still be usable after some repairs.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Xia Shu anymore.

When several warships sank into the harbor, their mission was declared accomplished.

The Mengnan landing ship may cooperate with the landing work later, and the aircraft carrier battle group may also further compress the air territory of the sea area.

But these are not the tasks of the Dragon and Phoenix Team.

What they have to do now is to become the front-line vision of the Army Department and help the armored forces to occupy the city of Kote.

After the two fighter jets carried out a small-scale harassment of the port, a large number of troops in the sea area immediately withdrew into the city.

This also made it easier for Qingxian to arrange the next step of conducting work.

Although the sea and air port areas were fighting, the flower area won.

But the urban warfare unsurprisingly became a stalemate.

The street fighting between the sea area and the flower area started in the morning and lasted for nearly a day. The two sides repeatedly fought on the edge of the city, sacrificing countless tools and armored vehicles, but in the end neither side could do anything to the other.

The Flower District was unwilling to give up, and the Sea District also showed amazing resilience as a major war zone.

The city east of Kote was almost reduced to ruins.

Here I would like to mention the structure of the port city of Kote.

The two rivers originate from the mountainous areas of Tuqu District and flow along the southwestern mountains of the Langqu Plateau. They are located on the plains and converge into one river about 70 kilometers from Maomao Bay.

The city of Kote is an important port city built on the sea at the mouth of this river.

The entire city is divided into two cities, east and west, by the river, each covering hundreds of square kilometers.

The Kote Port is also divided into two ports, East and West.

Sihanoukville has a good geographical environment and a deep harbor, making it an important area for cargo loading and unloading. Warships from the previous sea area also docked in this area.

The geographical environment of Donggang is relatively poor. This is where the river flows out to the sea and is silted up, making it unsuitable for large ships to dock and prone to running aground.

So according to the setting, this is just a fishing port where small fishing boats dock.

Xia Shu and others had previously carried out laser guidance on the silted islands and reefs here.

After the harbor was bombed, they took advantage of the chaos and swam from East Port to West Port.

It is now hidden in the warehouse area of ​​Sihanoukville close to the city.

Qingxian did not arrange for all personnel to sneak into Sihanoukville, because at this moment, the city on the west coast was the battle zone between the two war zones.

Now is the time when the Flower District needs front-line vision to guide the tool people in combat, and they must arrange people there to wait for orders.

Therefore, the only people who entered Sihanoukville were a few elite men whom Qingxian particularly trusted.

Xia Shu, Xiao Tang, Poison Snake, and Leaf.

And there is the powerful Miss Smile.

The five people were divided into three groups and secretly sneaked into the rear of the city.

Qingxian was remotely directing them from the harbor across the street.

The three groups were divided into three warehouses, covering each other and observing the interior of the city.

The city east of the riverbank was filled with smoke and artillery fire, while the city west of the river was relatively quiet.

It seems that most of the troops in the sea area have been sent to East City, and the troops here are concentrated on the bridge connecting the east and west cities.

Xia Shu looked at it for a long time and said in the channel, "I don't see any enemies. Have you found any?"

Viper replied, "No," and Smiley Face lazily said, "I didn't see it."

Xia Shu thought for a moment and said, "They abandoned the harbor."

This is a helpless choice.

If possible, the sea area would certainly like to defend the harbor.

However, without the support of the Air Force and Navy, it is impossible to defend such a large coastline relying solely on coastal defense.

Not to mention the infantry, as long as any large equipment appears near the port, the result will be the same as the two military cranes before, reduced to ashes.

"Are we going into the city?" Xia Shu asked the two of them.

Smiley Face didn't comment, and Viper said, "Wait a moment."

After a while, she said to the two of them, "Qingxian has given us a mission. The landing ship will land at the harbor. Let us act as an advance escort."

"Okay, do we want to land in Sihanoukville?" Xia Shu asked.

"A little further west, the sugar at the harbor."

"understood."

This task of setting up eyes in advance is actually very simple.

All we need to do is observe near the landing point to see if there are any high-powered military equipment.

Those things cannot be hidden and can be found with just a quick look.

As for those individual equipment, such as rocket launchers, mortars, etc., they cannot cause any damage to landing ships, so there is no need to worry about them.

"Then let's go a little deeper. Viper, you stay here and keep watch," Xia Shu suggested.

"Okay. Ye Zi and I are here." Viper said, and prepared to move with Ye Zi.

Xia Shu took Xiaotang and walked carefully towards the city.

The interior of the city of Kote Port is a complex network of streets and alleys.

The streets look more complicated and orderly than those in Bagh. It is obvious that this is a very wealthy city.

This is no wonder, as a large portion of the crude oil in the central part of the large oil field is transported from Kote.

As a city for crude oil loading and unloading, it is understandable that it is a little more affluent.

However, it is not so comfortable for the combat team involved.

The streets are too wide and the concealment is very poor.

The alleys are not connected to each other, so they are not suitable for stealth operations.

It is not easy for them to find a safe hiding place.

After coming out of the port warehouse, there is a wide road.

Natsuki didn't see any enemy troops in the area, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Giving up so completely?" Xia Shu muttered to himself.

"So urban warfare is just uncomfortable." Xiaotang also agreed.

Xia Shu observed it for a while, then asked in the channel, "Smiley, did you see anything?"

The smiling face on the rooftop used his gun to preview various dangerous spots and quickly replied, "No, no one is seen."

It's not right.

Natsuki frowned.

"I feel something is wrong."

Xia Shu looked at the deserted street and quickly expressed his gratitude.

Smiley Face agreed, "Well...it's impossible that there aren't any defenders. There might be a sniper watching this street."

"Let me see."

As Xia Shu said this, he took out a selfie stick-like device from his backpack, turned on the reflector on it, and stretched it out to the street very carefully.

She first observed the south side of the street, then the north side, and said, "There's a long straight road to the south, with no sniper spots. There's a small high-rise building at the end of the north street with lots of windows, so there's probably someone inside."

"I can't see over there from my angle." said Smiley Face.

Xia Shu thought about it and said, "I'll see if I can go around from the back street. Wait a moment."

"OK!" Smiley leaned comfortably against the wall and raised his gun.

Xia Shu put away his equipment and took Xiao Tang out of the back door of a shop and into a dark back street.

There was no one in the back street, but she moved very carefully.

Because there may be ambushes near the sniper, we have to be on guard.

The back street is only half the length of the front street, and then there is a high wall that divides the street.

Xia Shu took a look and decided to try to climb over through the window next to him.

"Come and give me a hand..." Xia Shu climbed onto the windowsill and looked back at Xiaotang.

Xiaotang was chewing on a huge sausage.

"Where did it come from?!" Xia Shu asked in surprise.

"I got it from the store." Xiaotang said, and put the half-bitten sausage to Xia Shu's mouth.

Xia Shu was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth and took a small bite.

"Two girls share this European sausage!" Xiaotang opened her mouth without hesitation.

"Okay, okay, stop telling your dirty jokes and give me a hand." Xia Shu chewed a sausage in his mouth and climbed up the wall with his hands.

You know what, this big European sausage is really delicious.

Upon hearing this, Xiaotang immediately leaned against the wall while biting the sausage.

Xia Shu stepped on her shoulders, kicked off, and climbed up the wall with his hands.

She looked at the wall for a while, and after confirming that there was no one on the other side, she leaned over the wall and reached out her hand to Xiaotang.

Xiaotang held half a sausage in her mouth, took a few steps back, sprinted against the wall, and grabbed Xia Shu's hand.

Xia Shu used both hands to pull Xiaotang up to the top of the wall.

The two of them flipped over and jumped down lightly, and reached the other side of the wall.

Then they walked through the back streets and soon reached the end of the street.

This is a T-junction, and the high-rise building Xia Shu mentioned is just across the street.

The place where they were was a post office-like building. To get to the small building across the street, they had to cross the street for more than ten meters.

It's too dangerous, there's a high chance of being discovered by the other party.

It's better to find a safer route.

Xia Shu explained the current situation to Xiao Lian, and after reaching a consensus with her, he continued walking along the inner street and deeper into the street.

Xiaotang seemed to have finally finished her big sausage, so she asked Xia Shu, "Do we have to get rid of this suspected sniper? Can't we just leave her alone?"

"That's fine," Xia Shu said. "But leaving it there alone will ultimately be a hidden danger. This street is the entrance and exit to the port. If they block it, it's like having our throat controlled. We'll have to deal with it eventually. Instead of leaving it there for a while and attacking it later, why not take it down now while they're off guard and eliminate it?"

Since Xia Shu explained it in such detail, Xiaotang nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The two of them went from the shadows of the back street, climbed over several walls, and came to the intersection of other streets.

They cautiously approached the street corner and looked out from inside a clothing store for a while.

Xiaotang was about to move closer to the windowsill to take a closer look, but Xia Shu hugged her waist and dragged her back a small step.
