The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2770: Liming II

"The Japanese tactics are very similar to that of the second time when Prince Ruprecht and the Royal Navy met. Through a short formation advantage, they concentrated their firepower on one or a few warships before the slow enemy completed the transformation. Take the distance again and wait for new opportunities."

   Sims also realized that something was wrong. To be honest, the 12 capital ships of the U.S. fleet are not too few. If they line up the battle line, they are more than 3 kilometers in length and nearly 4 kilometers in length. If you want to change the formation of such a long battle, it is naturally not easy! Considering the same huge destroyer squadron and speed issues, it takes longer for the American fleet to change its formations than the Japanese fleet. (10 battleships and 3 armored cruisers, the other three are the avant-garde fleet under the command of Riddle.)

   "Now once again determine the queue sequence of the Japanese fleet, we need to know how the Japanese arranged it." Sims suddenly skipped the question of the array, and asked about the distribution of the Japanese fleet.

   "Your Excellency General, we have not solved the previous problem..." an officer said.

   "General Rydell will help us solve this problem. I believe in his ability. Okay, now I will answer the question I just asked about the layout of the Japanese fleet." Sims said.

"The Japanese fleet is clearly divided into three. The first team consists of four Fuso-class battleships. The flagship Nagato is fifth, followed by the Mutsu, followed by two other Fuso-class battleships, the original Kurama-class fast battleship. The No. 2 ship Ibuki is in ninth place. The last two Japanese battleships of the King Kong class. Behind the Japanese fleet are the first dreadnoughts Hanoi and Settsu. They have been thrown away by the fleet. If we fight the Japanese fleet now If they do, it will take them about 20 minutes to join the battlefield.” An officer said.

   "Very good. As we expected, we will also adjust the fleet. We must ensure that the Colorado and Maryland are facing the Nagato and Mutsu, and the rest are free." Sims said.

While Sims and others analyzed the enemy’s situation, the two fleets were still sailing at their previous course and speed. The only thing to pay attention to was Raidel’s avant-garde fleet and as many as 18 destroyers. They would be the US fleet to offset the Japanese fleet’s speed. The key to advantage.

"Are the Germans crazy? They seem to be rushing towards us." At this time, the commander of the Second Battleship Unit of the Japanese Joint Fleet, commanding the 4 Fuso-class battleships, looked at the Ryder fleet in the distance. Expressed very puzzled. He knows how many kilograms the US fleet is. On the opposite side is a fast battleship and two armored cruisers. Just these three ships still want to challenge his four Fuso-class battleships? What do you think? It's not like looking for death. The distance between the two sides is still relatively long, and they are outside the range of the naval gun. If it enters the range, as long as its flagship Yamashiro turns half a compass point, let the warship behind to open the field, at most half an hour can hit the opponent Collapse! After all, two armored cruisers facing Fuso-class battleships are actually nothing!

"It may not be so easy. If we deal with the opponent's avant-garde fleet, the speed of the entire fleet needs to be reduced, because the firing conditions are not good now, the speed change rate is too large, and you did not find the opponent's position at a very tricky angle. Is it? The battleships behind us have been greatly affected." The Second Fleet Chief of Staff Yamaya said.

   "So we need to turn half of the compass point to get out of the field." Yamashita Harataro said.

"Then if we turn, what will happen to the fleet behind? After the turn is completed, our course will be staggered from the Sims fleet! The previous plan to seize the head of the T-shaped head may be ruined, and the most important thing is if we Once stuck by the U.S. fleet, it may be difficult to get a further distance." After all, the others in the mountain house are also a veteran. Although they were beaten 2-0 by Su Xiong and Raidel in the Indian Ocean, they paid a high price. The tuition, knowledge and level of the students have improved.

And the other people in the mountain house were worried about Betty. When he saw Raidel taking three ships between the combined fleet and the US fleet, Betty had an ominous premonition in his heart, because he knew that the opposite Ray Del will not do useless work, let alone die!

   "General Yamashitahara Taro sent a telegram asking whether we should adjust the formation to better attack the enemy's forward fleet." A staff officer asked Shigeru Taro Yoshimatsu.

   "If we adjust the speed and speed, I am afraid it will be a bit difficult to get an advantage over the Sims fleet," said Yasuo Shimura.

"Still keep the speed and speed the same! The opponent's overall strength is not stronger than ours. As long as we can form an advantage over the Sims fleet, how about letting Raidel's fleet fight for a few rounds? The two cruisers are not threatening at all. A Bavaria is also difficult to become a climate." Betty said. At this point, the arrow is on the string~lightnovelpub.net~ I have to send it. The distance between the two sides is very close. If you adjust the formation at this time, the opponent's shells may have been hit before the adjustment is completed!

"Give the destroyer squadron an order for them to disperse the Raidel fleet. At least they have to hold the opponent." Although Betty is determined to focus on the Sims fleet, she will not ignore Raidel. Sending destroyers to contain and interfere with opponents is one of the measures. Betty’s abacus is very good. There are 11 battleships on his side, 10 battleships and 3 armored cruisers on the other side. The battleships on his side generally have quality advantages. After the battle, let’s not overwhelm the opponent, but gain the advantage. It shouldn't be difficult, as long as something goes wrong on the main battlefield, it won't matter how Riddle jumps!

   "The fleets of the two sides gathered for 30 kilometers, and it is expected that the two sides will be within the maximum range of the naval gun after 10 minutes of relative navigation." A staff officer reported to Raidel.

"Give our destroyer squadron an order to let them follow us immediately. The fleet is ready to increase speed. The speed of the capital ship is increased to more than 26 knots, and the destroyer increases the speed to more than 30 knots. Everything is carried out according to the scheduled plan, and that's it." Wiping the cold sweat on his head and said. To tell the truth, he was also scared at this time. If you want to talk about the degree of danger, it is no less than that in the Great Battle of the Norwegian Sea that Admiral Hipper brought four battlecruisers to contain the Thomas fleet! Even more dangerous than then!
