The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 2616: Postwar two
They discovered the land attack fleet and decided to launch an attack. The decoy fleet and some of the main battleships launched this attack, and the attack was very clean. Then, the Japanese fleet began to reorganize, and all the main battleships returned to their own fleet. The decoy fleet was waiting. The arrival of the Benson fleet, while the main fleet took advantage of the chaos and continued to sail east. "
"Then the rest is very simple. The decoy fleet successfully led the Benson fleet away, and the Japanese main fleet continued to sail east. In the process, because General Benson ordered all warships to move closer to him, some of the original use The destroyer that was on alert in the inner circle was also transferred away, which led to a decline in our detection power in the inner circle. At this time, I had the first round of telegram exchanges with General Benson and General Pershing." Su Xiong said.
"Yes, but at that time your reaction was very negative and reminded us to proceed with caution. Then I would like to ask, do you think of the Mingxiu plank road in the Japanese fleet?" Ma Jifen said. And this question made everyone look at Su Xiong. If Su Xiong didn't remind him after realizing this, then it would be really bad.
"My response is really negative, because I think this kind of chase is unnecessary, because in theory, as long as the Japanese are not stupid, General Benson can't catch up. Am I right?" Su Xiong sees Said to Ma Jifen.
"I can accept your explanation, but according to our liaison officer in your fleet, you have thought of the possible strategy of the Japanese fleet, and it is very close to the truth. You mentioned that there is a previous attack on our land support fleet. Dreadnought, and also mentioned that this configuration is very abnormal." Ma Jifen continued.
To be honest, objectively speaking, Ma Jifen’s question to Su Xiong can actually be regarded as a question. It is very unfriendly, and Ma Jifen does not want to do this. After all, whether in actual performance or emotionally, he hopes that the German fleet is paddling. . But there is no way, he must figure things out! And this villain can only be done by him, because Benson represents the current U.S. Navy, Sims may represent the future U.S. Navy, and his official identity is a bit weaker!
"Have you contacted Nimitz before?" Su Xiong asked.
"Contacted, this is just a routine inquiry." Ma Jifen said embarrassingly.
"Yes, our thoughts at the time were very close to the truth, and we really wanted to contact you. But I'm sorry for the next thing, our communication was interrupted, and it happened that the Japanese fleet Near us and determined our location based on our radio communications, I think both the Navy and the Army have received an unfinished telegram? The manuscript of this telegram is still in Nimitz’s hands, You should take a look if you have time. You can understand everything." Su Xiong said unhurriedly.
"I can be sure of this." Marshall nodded and said.
"For this technical problem, I really can't believe it." Sims said.
"Okay, I think we have reached an agreement on this issue. Needless to say, my fleet was caught off guard by the main force of the Japanese combined fleet. In this battle, we almost lost Weimar. The US battleship. And the other three battleships were also traumatized.” Although Su Xiong has taken it for a while, people who understand the navy can naturally feel the pressure when Su Xiong's fleet faces 10 Japanese battleships.
"You should be clear about the rest of the matter, General Benson, you gradually realized that there was a problem with your judgment. Old General Fletcher also realized that something was wrong. After all, my fleet seemed to disappear suddenly out of thin air. It's not normal. You should be very clear about the next thing." Su Xiong said.
"However, after you escaped, you also kept the radio silent, in order to subsequently attack the scattered Japanese fleet?" Ma Jifen hesitated and finally said this question which may be ambiguous!
"You are very unfriendly." Su Xiong frowned. "I always think that as the first U.S. Navy personnel to deal with the Imperial Navy, we can be more honest."
"I can tell you clearly that the reason why we keep the radio silent is because we don’t know how far the Japanese fleet is from us, and we don’t know whether we have escaped from the interference zone. In the second round of attack, if it happens again, it is difficult for me to guarantee that my fleet is capable of participating in the war again. Then your country's transport fleet will be even worse." Su Xiong replied cleverly.
"Well, I think that in the battle tonight, General Su Xiong did not have a command error. He has no place to be blamed. All he has is credit." At this time Pershing finally spoke. As the highest commander in the entire front line, his words obviously meant to be conclusive.
The Americans really want to know the truth of the whole thing. They want to know every judgment of Su Xiong. This is not simply to pursue responsibility, but to learn and accumulate. And some problems are very sensitive, so at this time, some people naturally want to be white faces, some people want to be red faces, and the first-hand can not be white faces, so this pot can only be thrown to Ma Jifen...
So, under the guidance of Su Xiong, the Americans finally figured out the entire course of the battle. So now we naturally need to discuss the second question, and that is what we should do in the future. Pershing has actually expressed his opinion. What about the navy?
"My fleet and I are going back to Pearl Harbor for maintenance~lightnovelpub.net~ I hope that some destroyers can provide protection. After all, most of my frigates have been lost in the battle tonight, and the remaining belts Injury, I want to ensure the safety of the fleet." Su Xiong said.
"Just maintenance?" Sims asked.
"Yes, the naval systems of our two countries are still somewhat different. They are only for maintenance. Then when the domestic order comes, then I may have to return to the mainland with the fleet for thorough repairs. I now doubt whether Weimar is There is also the value of maintenance." Su Xiong said.
"Fuck it, are you going to pick it up?" Both Pershing and Benson felt scared for a while. To be honest, even Benson and Sims now think that it is the same war, or the Germans are more reliable than themselves. point! It is said that reality is the best teacher, Pershing and the others are educated! If the Su Xiong fleet is evacuated and the new German fleet does not arrive, then the trouble will be big. It stands to reason that the Su Xiong fleet should have been deployed in the Pacific for a year, but now, it is only a few months!
