reborn super empire

After a long time, Wang Lin finally received a reply from Tran Island. This result surprised him a bit, but at the same time, for him, perhaps this was the best result.

The office of the commander of the Indian Ocean Fleet is located on Tran Island, but his main port is located on the Sumatra Peninsula, so it is normal to send a telegram to Tran Island.

In addition, the headquarters of the Internal Guard Fleet is also in Tran Island, the headquarters of the Arctic Ocean Fleet is in Vladivostok, and the headquarters of the Pacific Fleet is in Sydney, Australia, but there are three main ports, which are an island in the Solomon Sea, A seaport city in Australia, and the port of Hawaii.

The military department gave an accurate answer. Starting tomorrow, the military department will let the Pacific Fleet start to form a temporary second fleet. The scale is the same as that of the first fleet, and it will be composed of two aircraft carrier battle groups.

After the formation, the temporary Second Fleet will directly send warships to Saudi Arabia, where they will conduct adaptive training, and require daily contact between the First Fleet and the Second Fleet.

Among them, the First Fleet mainly needs to understand the preparations of the Second Fleet, and tell the Second Fleet some of the situation and experience on the front line, so that they can be prepared.

The Second Fleet needs to understand the ammunition reserves and combat experience of the First Fleet, prepare for battle, and be ready to go to sea at all times.

The meaning of the military department is obvious. It is to tell Wang Lin that you don't have to worry too much about the situation on your side. You can fight as you like. If you don't have enough ammunition, let them know in advance. They will let the second fleet take over from the first fleet, and the first fleet It also happened to take this opportunity to return to Saudi Arabia to take a rest, and then wait for the Second Fleet's ammunition to almost run out before replacing them.

In this way, the two fleets took over to fight at sea.Also give each other a chance to rest.

Even so, the chances of the First Fleet to show off will be robbed by the Second Fleet in half.But for the fleet itself, this is advantageous.

First: Soldiers don't need to be too tired and tired.Under normal circumstances, the ammunition reserves of a fleet can enable them to fight uninterruptedly for at least half a month.

Second: The Pacific Fleet is busy all day long, preparing for battles every day, but in fact they have not fought many battles, and now everyone knows that the United States is their next enemy, and the Pacific Fleet will definitely be the main force at that time .

Therefore, it is good to be able to send a fleet from the Pacific Fleet to experience it first, and find a naval battle. At least they will not have any experience in dealing with the US Navy in the future.

In fact, fighting this kind of battle is not difficult at all.To put it bluntly, even if Wang Lin doesn't come out with the fleet, the fleet can complete the task very well.

Because the British warships have no ability to resist in front of them, the only thing that can pose a threat to them is the British Air Force, but the British Air Force is also well arranged by them. Before the attack begins, the German Air Force will naturally hold back live them.

Even if the Luftwaffe fails to complete the mission, then relying on the strength of the more than 600 fighters of the First Fleet alone, there is still no problem in self-protection.Because Wang Lin has absolute reasons to believe that the British will never dispatch thousands of fighters to attack his fleet at once.

And Wang Lin's military order to the top is also very straightforward, as long as the logistics supplies can keep up, it is guaranteed that the fleet will not be short of ammunition supplies at any time.Wang Lin is confident that at least 80.00% of the warships of the British Navy will be wiped out within one month.

英国在二战开始之前，作战舰艇主要有战列舰12艘、战列巡洋舰3艘、航空母舰8艘、重巡洋舰15艘、轻巡洋舰49艘、驱逐舰119艘、护卫舰64艘、扫雷舰45艘、潜艇69艘，总吨位约130万吨,总兵力19.5万人。

That is.The British Navy had more than [-] ships of various types before the war, and during the war.The British suffered heavy losses of warships due to the German Navy's submarine tactics.Therefore, the construction of ships for the navy was accelerated.

The British have the support of the United States, so there is no shortage of supplies. After several years of war, the strength of the British navy has not declined, but has risen to a higher level.

Although many warships were sunk by the Germans, it has to be said that the British still have more than 400 ships of various types and nearly [-] ships in service.

If you have to find something different, you can only say that the current strength of the British navy has declined. Because of the rapid expansion of the army, the quality of soldiers has been lowered.

But even so, the strength of the British navy cannot be underestimated. In this world, the British are still at the forefront in terms of the quality of individual soldiers in the navy.

In addition, the Americans also sent a fleet of hundreds of warships to support the United Kingdom some time ago, and these hundreds of warships can be said to have formed four aircraft carrier formations. Yes, there are indeed four aircraft carrier formations, that is to say, Not only the strength of the British on the sea has been enhanced, but the strength of the naval aviation has also been enhanced.

Now the British Navy has nearly [-] ships of various types, and there are as many as [-] aircraft carriers (plus the eight aircraft carriers in the four formations of the United States).

Although the number of aircraft carriers is not as high as that of the Chinese Empire, after all, they are fighting locally, and their supplies and marine environment have too many advantages over the Chinese Empire. take any advantage.

Ever since, Wang Lin couldn't help thinking of a tactic, to attack quickly and use the radar advantage to launch a surprise attack on the designated target.

Although the current radar technology has achieved breakthrough development, it is far from as powerful as people imagined. The application of radar is only to increase the distance when detecting air targets.

However, it is still difficult for them to find targets on the sea. Therefore, reconnaissance planes are indispensable now that the aircraft carrier is on an expedition. There must be reconnaissance planes in every direction to conduct non-stop reconnaissance and patrol. After finding the enemy, call the air force Attack.

Unlike the Empire of China, the warships are not only equipped with air defense radars, but also equipped with radars for detecting ships on the sea surface. In fact, even warships are currently unable to use radar reconnaissance for air targets.

Unless it is equipped with that kind of professional reconnaissance ship, it is not equipped with any weapons on it, and all the space is used to equip radar, such a single ship.

Wang Lin looked at the map in his hand, on which were the locations of British ports marked by the Germans, that is to say, no matter what time of day, they would attack these ports once and for all British warships to have nowhere to go.

Everything else depends on radar. In real history, air defense radars were moved to warships during the Battle of Midway Island. The Japanese air force followed the returning U.S. Air Force and planned to launch a sneak attack. An early warning was issued.

Before that, the Americans couldn't do this, just like when they were in Pearl Harbor, it was not a few years away. The Americans could only judge through the ground radar that it was a plane flying from the mainland.

As for the radar that scans the sea surface, it basically does not exist in this era.When the U.S. Navy bombed Tokyo, it was basically the end of the war. At that time, there was a detail that the U.S. bombers took off early, which eventually led to the tragedy of insufficient fuel.

The reason why the U.S. bombers took off ahead of schedule was precisely because the Japanese warship accidentally hit the U.S. aircraft carrier formation. The U.S. aircraft carrier formation had to evacuate there as soon as possible, so the bombers had to be released in advance.

It can be seen from this that the radar back then was really not as advanced as the later generations, and it could even detect things in the water.

After staring at the map for a long time, Wang Lin tentatively set the location of the first attack at about [-] nautical miles northwest of Portugal, which is only about [-] kilometers away from Ireland in the UK.

Although it is in the Atlantic Ocean, this is not the main channel of the British Navy, but it is the main channel of American material ships.

Materials transported from the United States must pass through here and then arrive in the United Kingdom.

On the one hand, it is precisely for this reason that although there are many ships passing by, they also have escort fleets accordingly. On one hand, the UK does not have too many air defense radars in Ireland.

The whole world knows that Germany does not pay attention to the navy, so if the Germans want to launch air strikes against the UK, they can only start from the opposite France, and it would be a bit wasteful for the British to set up air defense radars in Ireland.

Wang Lin wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to knock the British hard from the back when they were not paying attention, and let the British suffer from being dumb first.

After the decision was made, when all the fighter planes were taken back, the supply of all the warships was almost done, mainly the supply of fuel. At the same time, Wang Lin asked everyone except the duty personnel to rest and recharge their batteries. .

And the fleet quietly sailed towards the first destination in the dark. The distance is a bit far away. It will be about two days before they pass by, and it will be almost the same time. Try to kill more enemies with one blow It also gave the Indian Ocean Fleet a prestige.

The sea in the dark night is quiet, only the sound of water splashing on the warships, all warships are under blackout, the radar is constantly scanning everything around, and the sonar soldiers are doing their best to listen to the sonar, Prevent hitting a reef when marching at night, or accidentally running to the shore.

In this way, at noon the next day, the fleet had quietly arrived near the Strait of Gibraltar. Considering the safety of the fleet, Wang Lin did not order the fleet to go straight into the strait. Instead, he planned to wait until night to pass here. Anyway, there was radar detection , and no one will find them.

In short, just one sentence, enter the village quietly, and don't shoot people. (To be continued..)
