After seeing the Destroyer in the front changing its course once again, Bai Zhizhan returned to the bridge.
For safety reasons, Li Mingbo proceeded to the Navigation Bridge, while Zhou Yongtao was at the Air Combat Command Center arranging nocturnal patrol missions for the pilots.
The staff were all busy, and Bai Zhizhan didn't disturb them.
Four days ago, after making a bold decision, Bai Zhizhan ordered the Fleet to head full speed southward, directly to the Java Sea north of the Xunfeng Strait and the Longyan Strait.
At the same time, two Destroyer squads sped southward to get to the Xunfeng Strait and the Longyan Strait ahead of the rest.
However, Bai Zhizhan did not make a decision at that time whether to go through the Xunfeng Strait or the Longyan Strait but decided to observe the actual situation.
Last night, the 11.5 Squad arrived at the Xunfeng Strait first.
