Chapter 1101: Fox Hunt One (1/2)
Chapter 1101: Fox hunt operation (1)
In fact, Britain did have a large number of ships arriving in Scandinavia in history. In history, the German Navy did use submarines or destroyers to carry out attacks. Generally speaking, it was a trivial mess. The loss is limited. After all, the British were able to take out a majority of 20 light cruisers and destroyers of more than 4 dozen at a time!
As for now? Well, based on the number of battleships, it is not a problem to take out this property, the biggest problem is that it is useless to take it out! How powerful is the light cruiser and battle cruiser PK? ? Isn't that looking for death? And now the British people are in a bad situation. Not only did it encounter a stronger high seas fleet, but the fuel supply was also a barrier. The Americans had limited fuel quotas for the United Kingdom, and the few quotas sold expensive! The fuel from the Dutch East Indies was fine, but it would take a few months. The Dutch colonial army in Borneo was not capable of stopping the Japanese attack, but the damage to the oil fields was thorough.
”We can actually use this opportunity to carry out an ambush against German warships cruising in the Norwegian Sea! As long as we can sink 1 or 2 German fleet capital ships, then it will be a powerful deterrent to the German navy. We can at least guarantee the North Sea. Three months of stability! Our transport ship can reach Scandinavia smoothly, and a victory at sea is also very important to boost the morale of the military.” However, just as Jericho shied away from the side. Thomas spoke suddenly.
”Fuck! Thomas, are you going against the rhythm of the sky? Do you know something happened, you are the result of the fuck? You are gone, where can I find the fast fleet commander!” Jericho felt that in his heart called A galloping horse!
”Huh?! Talk about your plan, I think the entire British Empire is looking forward to such a victory. Even if it's just a small victory.” Churchill immediately became interested, and signaled Jericho not to move!
”From the current point of view, the Germans don’t know much about our fleet. They may not realize that our fleet is ready to go. So they are still performing missions on two battlecruisers. In this case, I use my own fleet. It is enough to solve these two warships! The large fleet can still sit in the Gulf of Forth and maintain its awe to the main force of the high seas fleet!”
The first words of Thomas attracted Churchill's attention, because his requirements were not high and he could act alone. Whether from the perspective of the comparison of the strengths of the two sides, the combat area, or from the perspective of mental arithmetic and unintentional, the Thomas fleet is appropriate. Proper advantage! What is the biggest loss? But nothing was caught. Just a trip for nothing. And if it succeeds, no matter what, it will be a victory. Churchill promised that he could use the face of a politician to blow a sesame victory into the size of a watermelon...
”If I remember correctly, the Empire’s North Sea radio lateral network should have been established, and a large part of it was built in the Shetland Islands. The Empire’s anti-submarine auxiliary cruiser also uses new radio lateral equipment. , Better accuracy and stability?” Thomas said.
”That's it. In theory, as long as the German fleet enters the North Sea and communicates with a known band of radio communication for a certain period of time, then we can know the other party's location information.” Churchill said, although Churchill is not a naval officer, Not even a technical officer, but in this position, some things are still understood.
”I heard that the aviation force has a new type of four-engine large aircraft with a flight time of several hours? And there are four seaplane carriers in the Imperial fleet that can be used at any time, is that true?” Thomas continued.
