Chapter 1302 Before PK
"Are the Japanese crazy?" This was Su Xiong's first feeling after hearing the report. In fact, what Su Xiong didn't know was that this was a very classic meme. After the Battle of Denmark Sea in World War II, the proud Lüte Yings sent a 4,000-word telegram to Mustache... ..... Originally, the British cruiser tracking Bismarck had been thrown away by Luteyings's exquisite multiple head-shaking operations, and even the radar contact was lost. As a result, this telegram was exposed...
However, there is a difference between the same long telegram and the same exposure. Luteyings was pretending, but Kanji Kato made a technical mistake. First of all, this guy thought that using a radio might expose himself, so he used a brand-new frequency band. But what he didn’t expect was that Deutsche Technology It may not be as strong as the British Empire, but it is enough to be proud of other countries, let alone Japan, which technically belongs to the second to third level.
Secondly, there was a problem with the arrangement this time. Kanji Kato, who served as the bait and the initiator of the attack, was a major general, and Yamaya, who was responsible for the last hit, was a lieutenant general, so the lieutenant general was allowed to obey the orders of the major general... This is a bit difficult to implement in practice. Therefore, Kanji Kato needs to seek the opinions of others in Yamaya, and at the same time, he needs to explain the situation. Therefore, if this telegram is regarded as a battle report, in fact, 2,000 words is not long...
However, no matter how many reasons Kanji Kato has, or how many objective reasons there are, if he is exposed, he is exposed. The Germans’ technical analysis is not in vain. They quickly drew a conclusion from the wavelength, and there must be other things around. There is a Japanese fleet, because the effective range of telegraphs on this frequency is not too far, and there are almost no Japanese radio stations in the western Indian Ocean. Considering that the other party has used a new frequency and password, a result is immediately apparent. The Japanese fleet has a backup plan!
"What should I do?" asked Redel, who also just woke up from his sleep.
"Has the other party responded?" Su Xiong asked. The Japanese used new secrets, and the Germans naturally did not have the ability to decipher them directly, so they could not be sure of what they said. It can only be estimated, and if Su Xiong wants to make a judgment, he must at least know where the hidden Japanese fleet is, and to do this, you must at least let the other party send a report.
However, another accident happened at this time. After waiting for about an hour, the German naval radio personnel once again captured the Japanese Navy's communication signal. But what Su Xiong didn't expect was that there was such a huge contrast between this call back and the first telegram! The entire telegram is less than 2 minutes long! In such a short period of time, the radio sideways cannot know the exact location! Because the time is so short, such a short telegram may even have only one sentence!
"Damn it, there are so many surprises tonight." Su Xiong sighed. He didn't know why the other party received such a short telegram. According to the German understanding, Kato Kanji got you a combat plan, and you should say a few more words. However, this unknown Japanese general actually replied So straightforward,
Was this an accident, or was it awareness of Germany's superiority in radio? Su Xiong doesn't know.
"It seems that our submarine force is only half used tonight?" Reidel asked. After Su Xiong signaled to continue, Redel continued: "If you want to fight, we can set up a submarine warning line in the north. Depending on the length of the other party's telegram, maybe the Japanese command officer may reply, Agree or deny it, but no matter what, if we want to fight, we must hurry up."
"Can the location of the remaining Japanese Fuso-class battleships be determined?" Su Xiong asked.
"No problem, the positions of the remaining four ships can be determined, and we just updated the information three days ago. They can't come so fast." Redel thought for a while and said.
"That's good, I guess the person coming over might be King Kong. We have an advantage." Su Xiong let out a sigh of relief. "The plan remains unchanged. Tomorrow morning, we will have a fight with the Japanese and let our submarine force form a warning net on the outside. Also, tell the Swordfish to release the reconnaissance plane at dawn. The Constellation will capture all the people in this sea area. Block all non-German radio signals! The decision to attack the enemy remains unchanged!"
And just when the Germans decided to have a big fight, others in Yamawu also made a decision. Regarding the telegram sent by Kanji Kato, the reply from others in Yamawu was the same as Redel had imagined. The telegram only had 2 sentences! The first sentence has only 2 words, I agree. The second sentence said that his fleet will approach to a place 40 nautical miles away from Kanji Kato's fleet, and will only enter after receiving a telegram from the latter.
I have to say that people who can become lieutenant generals in this era are indeed quite cool. From the telegram text, it can be seen that the military quality of others in Shanwu is very high! It's short, but handles the situation well. First of all, others in the mountain house already know the general situation of tonight. As Kanji Kato said, if there is no action, it would be more satisfying for the senior Japanese naval officers involved in the escort to commit seppuku. Therefore, facing a situation that has become corrupt, counterattack is the best choice, especially when one's own side has the advantage on paper.
Secondly, the position of the German fleet has not been determined, so it is difficult to say whether it can fight. Others in the mountain house must ensure their concealment, otherwise what if they are exposed and the German fleet comes to kill them... Therefore, he required Kato Sakichi to bite his opponent and consume him before he could attack. That's why they asked to wait for Kato Nobuyoshi's signal before launching an attack. 40 nautical miles is not too far. Disregarding the 20 kilometers of fighting distance between the two sides, there is still about 30 nautical miles, and King Kong's maximum speed is 27 knots...
"Are we just going to fight the German fleet like this?" The captain of the King Kong felt that Vice Admiral Yamawu's decision was too hasty.
"What else? It can't end like this, right? More than a dozen ships were sunk, and thousands of people died. Is that all?" Lieutenant General Shanwu asked. "Or do you think the Germans will do it just this once?"
"Remember one sentence, some enemies have to be faced sooner or later! In this case, we can't escape, we can only face it head-on! The difficulties the empire faced after the Qing-Japanese War were much greater than they are now. We Didn't we get the Philippines? Today, we have a lot of trump cards, and the Germans will be finished if they lose once!" Lieutenant General Shanwu was a little too cowardly towards his subordinates. If this guy hadn't been a colonel, Shanwu would have thought Teach yourself a lesson with the "Navy Spirit Infused Stick"!
