The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 2571: Iron dice turn three
Well, under Betty's plan, this logic chain has been completely completed! There is no problem! Even Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu couldn't think of any loopholes here!
And the most commendable thing is that Betty only exposed part of the combined fleet's strength. 10 battleships participated in the battle. This is a number that can make Benson feel excited, but not afraid! If his 16 battleships of all kinds came out, then Benson would definitely not be on board! The so-called seduction is just a joke. As for the question, can we fight for aid and use this former U.S. dreadnought fleet as a decoy to attract the U.S. fleet, and then the Japanese fleet will use its 16 warships to defeat the Americans?
How do you say this? I can only say that the idea is very good, but it cannot be implemented in fact, first! There must be a large number of destroyers around the main U.S. fleet. Once the situation is found to be bad, if the destroyer Sudden releases torpedoes while pulling smoke, there is no problem for the U.S. fleet to temporarily get rid of the Japanese gun muzzle.
Another problem is that the Japanese do not know the position of Su Xiong's fleet! You know, the so-called core area is actually very large. God knows where the Su Xiong fleet is dangling tonight! What if the Su Xiong fleet is nearby and can be quickly supported by the Japanese fleet? The US fleet still has hundreds of 14-inch guns! It's not a friendly master either!
And in terms of the types of ammunition, this time the Japanese fleet carried a large number of high-explosive shells and semi-armor-piercing shells. These shells have very high lethality against unprotected transport ships, but they are not suitable for combating capital ships. The 6 Fuso-class battleships that can pose a threat to the American Iron Tortoise are actually not enough to see King Kong’s 14-inch guns! Therefore, from the current point of view, it is more likely to lose in a decisive battle with the main force of virtue!
So, at least so far, Betty's tactics can be regarded as exhaustive. In theory, the risk is very small, and the probability of being able to divert the US fleet is very high!
"After we destroyed this American fleet, the two Fuso-class battleships and the two Kongo-class battleships that participated in the battle quickly returned to our team. The third battleship squadron launched shelling on the land, and then, taking advantage of the chaos, the main fleet passed through the US blockade. The lines are interspersed in depth! After that, let the mountain house other lieutenant to make contact with the US main fleet and report to us the position of the US fleet every 15 minutes!" Betty said.
"I believe that the lieutenant general of Yamaya can complete this task." Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu sighed. It’s so easy for the American fleet to find out about it. With a little delay or by sending out telegrams, you can expose yourself. Even at night, Americans can easily find others in the mountain house! Then the others in the mountain house will play PUBG under the overwhelming firepower of the US military! As for the final result? It depends on the good fortune of others in the mountain house, and there is only one thing Shigeru Yoshimatsu can do, that is, to make the sacrifices of others in the mountain house more valuable!
This is how wars are, sometimes they are exchanged for blood! On this issue, any leader of a world naval power must have this consciousness! Crown Prince Ruprecht is like this, Jericho is like this, and Betty and Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu are like this!
"Then let's start! The main fleet participating in the first round of attack will go ahead. The command of the 4 super-dreadnoughts can be temporarily handed over to other lieutenants of the mountain house. After killing this former U.S. Dreadnought fleet, the super-dreadnought warship will return to our team!" Shigeru Yoshimatsu said, and after a burst of lights and semaphore signals, the Japanese fleet completed its transformation. Four Super Intrepids were incorporated into the third battleship squadron. Then the third battleship squadron and its associated destroyers began to speed up the voyage, while Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu's main fleet was in a slightly rearward position. Keep a certain distance!
"The watchman has spotted the flames of the US fleet. It is about 18 kilometers away from us," an officer reported to the mountain house.
"I see, our cat's eyes have never let us down." In the daytime, there is nothing to find the opponent at this distance, but at night, it is really not easy to use the naked eye and optical instruments to find the US fleet 18 kilometers away! Although the opponent fired from time to time! For this, the lieutenant general of the mountain house is still very satisfied. Although, in order to ensure that the opponent can be destroyed, the two sides must be close to a distance of about 10 kilometers to fight, but this kind of enemy's situation seems to indicate that the Japanese mission is easy this time?
Haha, the idea is very good, but the world is about probability! Just when the others in Yamaya felt that they had discovered their opponent first, and believed that the other party knew nothing about him, he did not realize that the Americans also discovered the Japanese Third Battleship Squadron that entered the battlefield first! It is not even found only once, but twice!
Although Benson has no combat experience, his theoretical foundation is still very solid! At least, he knows that through strict deployment and strict rules and regulations, the loopholes can be filled to the greatest extent. In fact, there are reasons why Americans are confident that they have an intelligence advantage at home. Even at night, when the basic investigation network is not destroyed or confused, Americans have an advantage over the Japanese!
The first thing that discovered the whereabouts of the Japanese fleet was not the US patrol fleet at sea ~lightnovelpub.net~, but the observation post deployed at the commanding heights ashore! Standing tall and looking far, everyone knows this, and the Americans are also very shrewd. Since Su Xiong has already said that the Japanese will use night battles and bad weather as a cover to launch attacks, then how can the Americans not defend themselves? ? Therefore, following these two points, the Americans arranged optical instruments on some vantage points and established observation posts to monitor the situation in the offshore waters. On the one hand, it is really difficult to arrange ship patrols in the coastal waters, and it is easy to run aground. On the other hand, it is because you stand tall and see far!
And the fleet of others in the mountain house is going offshore! As for the reason? Naturally, because there are many shallows in the coastal waters, it is very unfriendly to submarines, and the Japanese naturally have all the nautical charts off the coast of New Ireland. In order to avoid possible submarine blockades by the US military, it is naturally the best choice to go near the sea. However, this As soon as it came, it was discovered by the US military observation post!
Maybe someone said, how did the Americans discover it? Is it because someone else in the mountain house actively exposed it? Sorry, this time, the others in the mountain house really did not have any major faults subjectively. The fleet has been keeping the radio silent, and the light control is also very strict! Well, how did the Japanese fleet be exposed?
