The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 2563： I'll go on it 2
"Wrong!" Betty interrupted the former directly. "If the battle is under normal circumstances, then the Suxiong fleet should indeed be the vanguard of reconnaissance, but unfortunately, our battle itself is an abnormal state! The Americans dare not easily squander the high speed of the Suxiong fleet and the original Not very good battery life!"
"You know, the new American battleships are all oil-fired boilers, and the German Bavarian-class battleships use kerosene mixed-fired boilers because they are worried about lack of sufficient fuel." Betty said.
"I know this naturally. Germany has more coal and less oil. If you want me, I will also use a kerosene mixed-fired boiler for Bavaria." Shimamura said.
"If anyone in this world is more familiar with long-term maritime warfare, if the British Empire says second, then no one would dare to say first! I can tell you clearly now that the situation in the Su Xiong fleet is very bad. !"
"First of all, the kerosene mixed-burning boiler is based on coal after all, and the energy that coal can provide is only about half of the fuel. This means that the Su Xiong fleet must continue to add coal during the more than 30 days of combat deployment. Well, you should be very clear about how much damage to officers and soldiers energy is to deploy for a long period of time at sea and then refuel at sea!"
"Secondly, another significant advantage of fuel oil over coal is that it requires relatively low logistical maintenance. The dust accumulated in the flue after the combustion of coal is difficult to clean. This will inevitably gradually reflect the speed of the warship."
"Third, another very big limiting factor for warships that use coal to sail at high speed is the physical strength of the firemen. During the war, the Royal Navy and the German Navy caused the firemen to faint and even die due to high-speed navigation. , And fuel battleships are different, they only use a fuel pump to send fuel to the boiler. So whether the Americans or Su Xiong, they will not easily waste the high-speed navigation time of the Bavarian-class battleships and the energy of the firemen! "
"Fourth, the German fleet uses small water tube boilers, which are more difficult to maintain. Therefore, in any case, the Germans must save a bit of their power system. Because both from the perspective of maintenance and manpower, Bavaria It is not a battleship suitable for long-term deployment on the ocean! Up to now, it is conservatively estimated that the ultimate speed of the Bavarian class may have dropped to about 24 knots." Betty said at last.
(Here is a clarification. The so-called kerosene mixed-burning boiler does not simply mean that it can burn both coal and oil. In fact, the working principle of this kind of boiler is that when the problem in the boiler reaches a certain level, oil injection The nozzle will inject oil into the boiler to support combustion. It cannot directly inject oil until a certain temperature and pressure requirements are reached. Therefore, warships equipped with general kerosene mixed-fired boilers burn coal under normal conditions.)
(In addition, the work of adding coal is really tiring. Think about it. When adding coal on the shore, all people need to be mobilized. After adding coal, take a bath, change clothes, eat well, and give some extra salary. Normal operation, however, it is more difficult to add coal at sea, and because it is impossible to get to the shore, the flying of coal ash on the hull will definitely affect morale and housing. More importantly, after the coal addition is completed, there is no way to wash it. Happily, this feeling, think about it yourself.)
"Fuck, it really is a senior officer from a world-class navy, even if it is a defeated German subordinate, this level is still a few blocks away!" Shimura Yasuo understood what Betty's words meant, and sighed with emotion. , Under the guidance of the Germans, even those who were taught by half of the British Fleet as a "tuition fee" were almost at the top level! Both strategically and tactically, they have their own unique features. After all, a long illness becomes a doctor, and if you get beaten too much, you will beat people too!
Betty solved the biggest knot of the Japanese navy, that is, what to do if the Su Xiong fleet is all over the world. For the Su Xiong fleet, the Japanese really have no good way, the 15-inch gun and the With high speed, high defense, and Su Xiong, a natural enemy of the Japanese Navy, what do you let the Japanese do?
But it's all right now. Although Betty did a qualitative analysis, there was no detailed data. But the Japanese also know that the American cruisers and destroyers should really undertake the reconnaissance mission. It is unlikely that the Su Xiong fleet will act directly. And if it is the American who is in charge of the investigation, and there is no experienced commander like Su Xiong to go to the fake and keep the truth, then the mobilization and deception of the Japanese fleet is completely hopeful!
This brings us back to the previous issue of Su Xiong’s mistrust of the U.S. military system. The U.S. reconnaissance fleet is likely to eventually provide a lot of false or even misleading information. Therefore, Su Xiong would rather investigate and judge by himself. Unwilling to rely solely on Americans!
Well, are Americans so foolish? It may be difficult for the Japanese, but it is different for Betty! Because Betty also caught the foot pain of the American fleet! That is, the American core fleet will never divide its forces! One thing to note here is that the so-called core fleet refers to the dreadnought and super dreadnought with better performance, excluding the pre-dreadnought and early dreadnought ships.
As for the reason? Naturally, I am afraid that the Japanese fleet, which has the advantage of speed, will break through ~www.novelhall.com~. Therefore, this will inevitably lead to such a situation. For example, if a single former Dreadnought Squadron cannot deal with it, When the Su Xiong fleet cannot be easily used, the main U.S. Navy's main fleet must be on its own, not asking to kill the opponent, at least driving away!
"Then there is only one question now. In addition to the main fleet, does your navy have a faster speed than the US fleet while at the same time able to beat the existence of the former US Dreadnought warship? We need to use such a decoy to continuously mobilize the US fleet. , And then create opportunities for the main fleet to break into the core area!" Betty asked.
"Are those armored cruisers made in Germany okay? Although they are very old, we have replaced the power system and there is no problem with the speed." Shimura asked.
"No, their firepower is too weak, and it's of no use to the Lord that even the dreadnought battleships of the late US can't defeat." Betty said. "If it doesn't work, just use two slow dreadnoughts."
"No, there is still a batch of heritage from the Russian Navy in the Imperial Navy that can be used. They have just completed the restoration, and now they are just playing!" Shimamura said.
