Chapter 1289： In battle (1/2)
Chapter 1289
”Let's go, night combat is definitely not a suitable option, so our second attack is during the day! This time, we can continue to choose to attack from the back, or we can choose to attack from the side, because the rising sun is still very dazzling, so, We also have the advantage in the battle.” Raidel said.
Ryder really deserves to be a ”brother” (a person who is meticulous to a certain extent.) He took full advantage of the speed advantage brought by the engagement initiative, and the natural environment created a tactical advantage time and time again. The two Japanese fast battleships are indeed powerful. They are also agile enough, but unfortunately, they must move around the fleet. The maximum speed is limited to 10 knots, which is even lower than the most economical speed of the warship. No way, the **** mission can't get you out of the fleet. Therefore, if the German fleet does not want to fight, unless the Japanese throw away the transport ship, otherwise, the Germans will leave if they want. There is no problem.
In the use of time points, the Germans are equally good. The sun is not strong at sunset, so the interference to the fleet's aim is not great. The German fleet is hidden in semi-darkness. For example, it can be seen that the Japanese fleet turns on the lights at night, and the German cat is in the dark, ready to shoot black guns at any time.
During the day, when the sun rises for a short period of time, the light is very strong. At this time, the still rising German fleet showers in a layer of light. Even if the Japanese fleet wants to fight, it will be affected. The influence of light, although the two battles were when both sides had their backs to the sun, but because of the difference in time, they created completely different situations of engagement. And this kind of fighting situation is enough to change the outcome of the two sides in a evenly matched situation! In other words, after choosing the time and entry point, the German fleet won a little and a half before the battle started!
”If this is the case, then if we have the upper hand, we can take advantage of the situation and we can get rid of it. If we are less lucky, we can leave? Find a chance to come again? Is that true?” Su Xiong understood Raidel's thinking.
”Yes, the Japanese fleet can only sail about 450 kilometers a day, and we have at least a week to slowly take care of them! As long as we can take advantage once, we can expand the advantage to victory! By then, the Japanese fleet They can only choose to leave and leave their transport ship obediently behind!” Raidel said. ”Even if their destroyers wear too much, we can even use submarines to launch a forced attack while holding down the other's two fast battleships. Believe me, one destroyer of the Japanese will definitely not be able to defeat two submarines. , Even if there is an artillery battle.”
This is true. The number of Japanese destroyers is not large, and the tonnage is generally relatively small, generally below 1,000 tons, and the firepower is only 3 to 4 medium-caliber guns. Everyone does not have decent armor protection, and the submarine is out of the water. Even smaller, even with a 150MM deck gun. Two better German submarines are better than a Japanese destroyer!
”As long as we kill most of the Japanese transport ships, then in essence, our mission is considered complete. It is good to be able to kill a Japanese fast battleship. If you can't do it, it doesn't matter if you go away.” Raidel said After finishing, lean back on the chair relaxedly. Waiting for Su Xiong's decision.
”However, if I can, I still hope to keep a Japanese fast battleship!” Su Xiong said.
”Well, let's work hard with this goal, so what we need to do tonight is to gather the submarines scattered everywhere, and then plan a good route to kick the Japanese in the **** tomorrow evening!” Raidel said.
