Chapter 2674: The Net of Heaven and Earth II
"It doesn't matter, we can use a very tricky method. First of all, we can make sure that the supply fleet cannot come from South America. The reason is very simple. If the Americans cannot control the entire South America, then adding us will definitely be able to." Take control of all of South America! We can figure out every large ship that comes out of South America. I think the Americans must have started doing all this, but it has almost no effect, so it can only show that South America has been eliminated! And the British It is impossible for the Japanese supply ship to come from the British mainland to the Pacific Ocean. It is a bit absurd from a logical and technical point of view. As for Canada, if there is any, let the Americans solve it."
"Well, although Australia is a very large colony, there are not many ports, and there are only a handful of ships suitable for replenishing the attacking fleet, because you know that the Japanese fleet is operated by two warships, Then the supply ship must carry enough materials for two warships. In this way, the payload of the supply ship must be at least 6,000 tons. In the current Pacific Ocean, or in Australia, the number of such ships is definitely not Too many! We just have to keep an eye on them," Raeder said.
"Well, okay, wait a minute, I'll get some things." Said Su Xiong got up, took out a document from the next shelf and handed it to Raeder.
"There are more than 200 potentially suitable targets, but they are certainly not something we can keep an eye on." Su Xiong pointed to the list on the shipping schedule above. "You have to be clear that the supply ships arranged by the British for the Japanese are likely to fly the flags of other countries, which makes them more hidden and avoids a lot of trouble. The Americans thought of this method, but for such a huge number of complicated It is really difficult for the target to monitor," Su Xiong said.
"It's not difficult, as long as the Americans are willing to pay some price and take certain political risks, even if the operation goes well, we only need to control a certain sea area in a very short period of time, and then from these transport ships sailing on the sea Find out the supply ship that provided supplies to the Japanese fleet in the team! Finally, follow the clues to capture a Japanese attack fleet!" Raeder still insisted on his opinion.
"How?" Su Xiong asked.
"Remember the British Tenth Cruiser Squadron, the British Blockade Fleet that was shackled around the neck of the Empire and then completely smashed by Marshal Hipper." Raeder asked.
"Of course I remember that the British used a large number of old cruisers and auxiliary cruisers improved with merchant ships as a blockade fleet. They have huge endurance and arrange boarding teams. They will check every merchant ship. If so-called prohibited materials are found It will be detained or even confiscated." Su Xiong said.
"We can learn from everything! The Americans have a sufficient number of armed merchant ships, and destroyers if they are not enough! We only need to keep an eye on those large ships with enough tonnage to supply the Japanese fleet. At a certain point in time, they will set off , and then confirm the departure time and voyage of these ships through our intelligence points in Australia and other places,
We rushed up to intercept them, only to find that they were carrying ammunition or accessories, even excess fuel and loading tools can be seized! "
"It would be even better if we brought along the communication suppression equipment that the Americans had just developed. Armed merchant ships that seemed to have no hostility approached them, and then suddenly turned on the radio interference equipment, and stopped the other party under the threat of naval guns. Then The boarding team rushed up to confirm the situation. If the target is found, then we can easily track the opponent. Even if the tracking fails due to weather or other abnormal conditions, we can greatly reduce the time spent by the Japanese fleet at sea, and as long as we If we can catch a battleship, then it doesn’t matter if we sleep in the next one.” Raeder said with a smile.
"This is actually not difficult technically. Maybe only ten armed merchant ships and 30 destroyers can keep an eye on all the large ships leaving from Australia. The number of 200 ships may be large, but they are scattered throughout the Pacific Ocean. We can It’s refining, and we’re going to get rid of the ones that don’t need attention, even if some slip through the net, it doesn’t matter, as long as we can catch one!” Raeder said, looking at Su Xiong, who was already a little moved.
"Maybe this will make the relationship between the British and the Americans worse." Su Xiong seemed to say something completely irrelevant. "Well, I approve of the plan, and I'm willing to convince General Sims."
"Very good, if that's the case, then our meeting this afternoon will probably be very pleasant." Raeder said as he took out a document: "Correct it for me."
"You cunning guy." Su Xiong cursed with a smile and then started to read, and the whole morning was spent in the discussion between the two, until the visit of Sims and others in the afternoon! This time Sims came with Magiffin and did not see Admiral Benson, so he might have been idle. Su Xiong said in his heart.
"We need your country to help us eradicate the Japanese attack fleet spreading death and chaos in the Eastern Pacific Ocean." After a short greeting, Sims explained his purpose.
"At most one week, the Mecklenburg and Zeppelin can attack. If your country equips us with a few more destroyers, we can form an independent hunting fleet." Su Xiong said.
"So your army has a plan?" Sims said.
"Of course, but these plans may be a bit extreme, and I need to obtain the consent of your government before they can be implemented." Su Xiong said and sent the set of plans that Raeder sorted out to Sims.
"This plan is a bit troublesome." Sims glanced at the plan sent by the Germans, his eyebrows furrowed. But it quickly re-stretched. "But I like it! Now is the time to make everyone who is an enemy of the United States pay." Sims closed the file.
"Within three days, I can get the authorization, and we will arrange the relevant warships and personnel. You will get the highest information priority and have full freedom." Sims finally said.
"This is the simplest and most joyful battle meeting I have experienced since I came to the Pacific Ocean." Su Xiong said with some surprise.
"The war cannot continue. To be honest, the current situation of the war has made us very impatient. Therefore, in order to end this damn war as soon as possible, some necessary measures can also be implemented." Sims said.
