Red Alert 1895

"Chief of Staff, the battleship detachment of the combined fleet of Japan and the United States has arrived, and they are returning to assist these cruisers and destroyers. △￠,"

Qiu Baoren immediately issued an order to the Banner Soldiers, saying: "Order Li He to lead the task force to stop the Japanese and American battleship fleets! Let them try their best to delay the recovery speed of Japanese and American battleships, and destroy Japanese cruisers and destroyers for us." Provide more time."

"Yes!",

"Task Force, come with me and intercept the battleships of Japanese pirates!" Li He said.

Li He led a task force composed of cruisers and destroyers and began to rush to the battleships that the Japanese returned to aid. They were obviously preparing to welcome the Japanese battleships that returned to aid, and to provide time for the Sovereign-class battleships to destroy those Japanese cruisers , and then can maximize the annihilation of more Japanese navy. However, such a price must not be small. But as long as the plan can be realized, all the Japanese navy can be wiped out here, and I am afraid that Japan will become a country with no defense at sea, so that it can be slaughtered by Taiwan's navy at any time.

The twenty-odd cruisers and dozens of destroyers of the task force began to rush towards the six battleships of Japan and the United States, and then they began to prepare to intercept the combined Japanese and American fleets that were returning.

"Your Excellency, Commander, a group of cruisers and destroyers are coming ahead. They have no fewer than seventy or eighty warships. What should we do?" the Japanese observer asked.

Ito Yuheng then thought for a while and asked, "What do they want?"

"Report, Vice Admiral Miller of the U.S. Navy sent a telegram saying that the Chinese battleships are rushing towards their cruisers and destroyers, ready to fight against their cruisers and destroyers, and they asked how long it will take us to come over Support? Are they going to hide for a while?"

Ito Yuheng saw these two messages, and immediately knew what the Taiwan Navy was thinking.

"Hmph. They are betting against us! They hope to send their cruisers and destroyers to intercept our battleships, and then their battleships will attack our cruisers and destroyers. This is a competition of who can destroy the opponent's destroyers faster And the cruiser. They are making a bet with us, and this kind of bet is to see who can be more ruthless and who can be more powerful." Ito Yuheng said.

"Your Excellency, U.S. Navy Vice Admiral Miller asked us. Do you agree with them leading the cruisers and destroyers to take shelter? Anyway, with the speed of the cruisers and destroyers, they can run faster than the enemy's battleships. In this way, the Chinese battleships It is impossible to catch up with them. If their cruisers and destroyers run away, then our battleships can effectively annihilate the enemy's destroyers and cruisers, and finally achieve great results." The Japanese telegraph soldier asked.

"No, there is a problem! Bring the sand table!" Ito Yuheng said suddenly.

Ito Youheng then watched the staff arrange the situation on the sand table at sea, and immediately said angrily: "Damn it, the Chinese people plotted against us? It turns out that all of us were caught in the conspiracy of the Chinese people."

"Your Excellency, what is going on?" the Japanese staff officer said.

Ito Yuheng immediately pointed to the layout on the sand table. Then he said: "If nothing else happens, the Chinese people should have three plans. The first method is to use a submarine attack to destroy one of our battleships, which successfully weakens our strength. This is the Chinese people. The most basic plan. They successfully destroyed one of our battleships with submarines, and successfully weakened our combat effectiveness. They then sent out the five advanced battleships, and then deliberately put them in line with our six battleships They should be one of the plans. Their original Sovereign-class battleships did not move, but stood by on the spot. In this way, when we fight the five new battleships of the Chinese, their first set of plans will come. "

"Their first plan is to seize the 't' prefix. They hope to use the speed of this new type of battleship to **** the 't' prefix. This is their first plan, which is the simplest plan. If They were able to **** the 't' prefix successfully, so they also laid the foundation for victory in this naval battle, because with their superior firepower, they can completely wipe out our battleships. But they also made preparations later. Knowing that they may not be able to Successfully snatching the 't' prefix, at this time their second set of plans also began to appear."

"If the second plan is as I expected, they will use those new battleships to transfer us away, and then take the opportunity to sneak attack and take the initiative to attack our destroyers and cruisers. In this way, we will definitely come back. And they They sent their destroyers and cruisers to intercept us, delay our return to support, and then provide time for their battleships to destroy our destroyers and cruisers. However, the price paid by their destroyers and cruisers is definitely not small .”

The Japanese staff officer immediately asked: "Isn't this a bet against us? They destroyed our destroyers and cruisers, and we also destroyed their destroyers and cruisers. In the end, it was a battle of battleships. And we can definitely order our destroyers With the cruisers retreating, and then taking shelter, wouldn’t their plan fail? With the speed of the cruisers and destroyers, they should run much faster than the battleships. At that time, they would not be able to destroy our cruisers and destroyers at all!”

Yuheng Ito replied: "It's not that simple. It seems that we can let the destroyers and cruisers take a break, but if our destroyers and cruisers run away, who do you think their monarchy-class battleships will target?"

Ito Yuheng pointed to the sand table, and then said: "If our cruisers and destroyers run away, then their more than a dozen Sovereign-class battleships will definitely come back to support their destroyers and cruisers, and at that time they more than ten A Sovereign-class battleship can take the opportunity to turn around and attack us directly. At that time, we will inevitably face the siege of more than a dozen Sovereign-class battleships, and then the five new Chinese battleships chasing behind us will also follow. Let's join the battlefield together. At that time, our battleships will all be beaten to death."

"It seems that this is not the combat thinking of the Navy?" A Japanese staff officer said doubtfully.

Yuheng Ito scolded: "They use the thinking of the army to fight naval battles. They are **** bastards. They actually fell into the conspiracy of the 'army' at sea. They are an out-and-out 'siege aid' 'Tactics, this is completely the combat thinking of the army, and they have actually applied it to the navy."

Ito Yuheng gestured vigorously on the sand table at sea, and the members of the British Navy observation group next to him couldn't help frowning. What kind of play is this? This is entirely the combat thinking of the army, but it was actually used in naval battles.

"The Chinese people used the army's commonly used thinking of encircling points to fight for reinforcements. They used new battleships to transfer our battleships away, and then they took the opportunity to attack our destroyers and cruisers. If our battleships return to aid at this time, then we will become relative reinforcements."

"At this time, the Chinese sent cruisers and destroyers to stop us, so we must have two choices. According to the routine of siege and aid, most of the time, one is real and the other is false. Either the siege is true, or they The purpose is purely to help. However, the two can change at any time according to the situation. At present, their battleships are attacking cruisers and destroyers. Their actual purpose is to annihilate our destroyers and cruisers, so that our destroyers and cruisers This is the so-called 'point', and our battleships returning to aid is a relative 'aid'. But this is not a constant layer, once our destroyers and battleships escape, at that time their Sovereign-class battleships have no targets, and they They will turn around and fight our battleships. At that time, there were more than a dozen Sovereign-class battleships, and we were chasing the five new battleships back then, and they could beat us to death."

"The tactic of encircling and attacking reinforcements like this is very flexible, even more flexible than the army. The army also needs to consider terrain issues, but they don't have to consider terrain issues at sea. They can choose to eat our battleships or eat our cruisers. And destroyers, in short, one side must be eaten. If we let the destroyers and cruisers escape~www.readwn.com~, then our battleships will be in danger. At that time, their twenty battleships besieged six of our battleships, and at that time even if the opponent The quality of the navy is relatively low, and it will inevitably beat us to death."

"However, why didn't they just start like this? Why didn't they just dispatch all the warships from the beginning, and then use the advantage of the battleships to siege you? Why are they so complicated and use this method to attack you?" Counting you? This army's combat thinking is actually applied to the navy, which is more complicated than direct combat. This method is too complicated. In fact, isn't this far away? They are the staff officers who formulate the combat plan. Why is it so? How about choosing a complex combat plan? They have completely lost the advantage of multiple ship types in coordinated operations. They are completely giving up the idea that one plus one is greater than two achieved by multi-ship cooperation. They are such a single type of ship The battle will inevitably weaken one's own advantages for no reason." Said the officer of the British observation team. (To be continued.)
