Chapter 2136: The war will continue two

You know, the correction of battleship artillery depends on observing the water column splashed after the shell falls. If multiple battleships shoot at a target at the same time, then who knows which battleship the water column was shot out... .... Although later generations used dyes to distinguish, think about it, hundreds of battleships on both sides were mainly coal-burning. Even if weather factors were not taken into consideration, the smoke exhaust of hundreds of battleships was enough to affect the observation, and historically In the Battle of Jutland, there were also cases where the fire rate was forced to be lowered because the fired shells were too dense, causing the water column to affect observations.... So, Jericho's plan seems to be good, but it takes luck to implement it!

　　 As a mature commander, Jericho is naturally unable to pin his hopes of victory on the sneak attack. If the sneak attack fails, then Jericho has to prepare for the battle! But it is a pity that the current Royal Navy aviation is no longer enough to rely on!

　　 "If I give you a fast fleet stronger than the Hipper fleet, can you give us the advantage of the situation before the battle?" Jericho asked.

"Five queens and two battlecruisers? However, the Germans have 12 Bavarian-class battleships. If they strengthen Hipper a few, it will be difficult for us to fight frontally, just like in the Battle of the Dorger Sandbar. Same." Thomas said, the overall speed advantage of the German fleet gave the Germans too much initiative in reconnaissance and fleet matching.

"Betty and I calculated the time. Before the battle between the two sides, the aircraft carrier squadron can cooperate with you in a wave of attacks! That is to say, when your fast fleet is at war with the Hipper fleet, 4 aircraft carriers can concentrate more than 100 aircraft. To provide you with support, they can carry at least 40 torpedoes!" Jericho said.

　　 "Hold the grass! Can you do it like this?! Betty's idea is very good." This time, Thomas really gave Betty a thumbs up! 100 planes are nothing for the entire open high seas fleet, but for the avant-garde fleet with only about 7 warships, it is very deadly! Think about it, when I brought a ticket to the Queen and Hipper's fleet to fight inextricably, suddenly dozens of torpedo planes and bombers came and bombarded 2 or 3 of them indiscriminately! This scene is simply beautiful! Although the torpedo of the torpedo is less powerful, as long as it can hit 2 or 3 rounds, it will still cause huge damage to the German warship. As for the bomb? If this thing is shot on key equipment such as rangefinders, it will work well!

The artillery battle on the battle line must be meticulous. A slight mistake may lead to unpredictable consequences. For example, in the avant-garde battle in Jutland in history, the Betty fleet accidentally ignored Deflinger when distributing firepower. The battlecruiser No. 2 gave the opponent two heads. If it weren’t for Thomas, the Germans would have almost beaten Betty. In the Danish naval battle in World War II, Hood and the Prince of Wales regarded the first Prince Eugen as Bismarck, which caused a range error. Bismarck gave Hood a second without being disturbed!

　　 So, if you can lose a battle by looking at things like dazzling eyes, then when the Hipper fleet is messed up by the Air Force, your fleet can naturally go up and pick up people easily! You know, the output of the British naval guns is strong enough now!

If the avant-garde battle can be won, it will naturally be easier to fight in the final battle. A better exchange ratio will further expand the number of weak German fleets. If the Germans are shaken, it will actually be the best result. Everyone, the main force of the High Seas Fleet is still retained, and the British Fleet is still the world's No. 1 Fleet, and if the opponent's head is relatively iron, then the British Fleet will still have an advantage of about 70%. After all, after taking advantage of the first wave , The remaining preparation time is enough for Betty’s aircraft carrier to carry out another "assassination" operation!

　　 "Is this all your plan?" Thomas asked. "The Germans rely on the advantages of land-based aviation to obtain the support of airships and K8 bombers. If there are no other plans, we are still in danger! After all, the projection of the land-based aviation force is too high."

"It is unrealistic to expect the Marine Air Force to fight for output, but it is still possible to provide some long-range fighters. If we act cautiously, operating within the range of land-based fighters, the safety factor will be higher. Of course, we also consider This made it possible for the German fleet to launch an offensive under the cover of land-based aviation." Jericho said after a pause.

　　 "So, we must also choose a suitable engagement time! If possible, I hope the engagement time is at dawn!" Jericho said.

“It’s really good if it’s dawn. When it’s dark, it’s difficult for them to find us. After dawn, it takes time for German bombers to rush to the battlefield. We can implement the previous plan. But how to find the main force of the German High Seas Fleet in the dark is A question." Thomas said.

"This is the least problem. The Germans will definitely contact their land-based aviation forces, so it is impossible for them to implement radio silence! We don't need to find their exact location~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Just know the approximate location. The aircraft carrier is not only Only the assassin at the critical moment has strengthened our detection capabilities." Jericho said.

　　 "This is our final plan?" Thomas asked.

"That's it. We don't have too many chips in our hands. That's all we planned, but the subsequent results depend on God's wishes and the performance of officers and soldiers. Although, from the moment I joined the Royal Navy, I expected to be able to There is a Trafalgar victory that belongs to me, but now, if I can, I really don't want to fight this battle." Jericho said with a breath.

　　 "We can avoid the battle." Thomas thought for a while and said, to be honest, he doesn't know what methods the Germans will use to force the British fleet to fight a decisive battle!

　　 "They can go out of the North Sea, then into the Norwegian Sea, and then to the Atlantic Ocean, completely cutting off our maritime transportation line." Jericho said.

　　 "What about their supplies?" Thomas felt that the military significance of this kind of operation was limited. After all, hundreds of warships from the German High Seas Fleet entered the Atlantic Ocean, playing around? The materials consumed every day are more than 10,000 tons.

"Two methods, one method, the Americans will provide some supplies, and the other method is related to the French. According to the information we have recently obtained, the French may provide the Germans with some ports and facilities!" The word almost gritted his teeth!

　　 "Damn French!" Thomas said angrily.
