The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 2858： American Fleet 2 in the Pacific
"So you think that the American transport fleet has almost no shortcomings?" Veron said unhappily. The German confidence after the war was unprecedentedly high. After all, the previous powerful Entente system was less than 3 years old. Time was wiped out by the German iron fist, so what is the United States that is far away on the other side of the ocean, even the Japanese can hit the ground? Now, Ron, who was born in the German High Seas Fleet, gave such a high evaluation to the Americans, which made Veron a little uncomfortable.
"The only disadvantage is that once such a transport fleet encounters the opponent's large fleet, the loss is absolutely amazing, because the opponent has a sufficient number of warships to encircle and suppress the large fleet, and it is very difficult to disperse and evacuate. , And the **** fleet, which was originally mainly used to deal with destroyers and submarines, is also vulnerable to the real main fleet. Of course, the probability of this situation is very low. After all, there are not many countries in the world with large-scale fleets. And a country with this strength wants to encircle such a fleet in the depths of the ocean, there are certain risks and difficulties." Ron said.
"Is it difficult?" Veron asked.
"We don't know how the Americans are doing high-level secrecy. From the perspective of secrecy during fleet navigation, the radio communication equipment on each ship is strictly limited. If you want to send long-distance reports, you must obtain the U.S. Navy. Personnel’s approval. The flagship of the **** fleet can be reported, but the content is encrypted, and the frequency band will be relatively remote. This makes the fleet sailing due to the factor of radio signal leakage to be suppressed to a minimum. And if it is kept secret If the work is done well and the route planning is reasonable, it is really difficult to find the target on the vast ocean solely by the fleet's own investigation methods." Ron said.
"Then our wolves are not good? If the search for the target is so difficult, how did our wolves find the opponent?" Veron asked.
"First, intelligence is the most critical factor. As for how to obtain intelligence, you don’t need to know. The second wolf pack’s search for targets relies on tracking on the sea during the day, and this method has been used by American destroyers and seaplanes. It's restricted. The American **** system is really powerful." Ron naturally couldn't tell Veron about too many details, but for this compatriot who didn't get his salary and cooperated with him, Ron still revealed some Insider.
"Okay, the Americans are here, and our conversation ends here. I'll go ahead and work on mine. It's up to you as much as I can." Veron looked at the U.S. Navy crew who was coming by. Whispered to Ron.
"Lieutenant Harry, I want to ask, how long will we have to wait before we can leave?" Ron asked after Veron left.
"It will take about three hours. We have to wait at least for the arrival of the two fleets." Harry said. Although the high-levels of the United States and Germany have become very stiff, the Americans are opposed to the Germans in the civil and low-level government. It is still relatively friendly. After all, the friendly relationship between the United States and Germany has lasted for more than 20 years before this. The generation of Lieutenant Harry almost grew up in a friendly atmosphere of virtue. Many historical influences cannot be eliminated in an instant. Yes, and to be honest, the direct cause of the breakdown of the relationship between the two countries this time lies with the Americans!
"It’s actually hard for me to understand how to coordinate a huge fleet of nearly a hundred ships including the **** fleet? To some extent, commanding such a huge fleet is no less than commanding a large fleet. Right?" Ron asked curiously.
"You have never worked in a large ranch, right?" Ron said very friendly: "In fact, this is very similar to using a sheepdog to manage a herd. It is difficult to manage so many fleets with a single flagship, so we put the fleet Form a team, and then designate one of the ships as the team’s flagship. These team commanders are veterans, and they can command the small fleet very efficiently. And we try to keep a large distance in the formation, when we need to change the course Or when there is an emergency, we also have enough space and time to adjust. In addition, all the captains on the ship have undergone simple training, such as how to deal with abnormal situations and how to better coordinate the fleet Wait. It's difficult to say, but as long as the participants walk a few times, it's not that difficult."
"Then if you encounter an ambush by the opponent's submarine and there are casualties, how is your country prepared to deal with and rescue?" Ron asked.
"If we are only encountering a small-scale submarine attack, then we will ask the ships inside the fleet to keep in formation! Unless there is a torpedo attack, they cannot leave the queue. As long as we can suppress the internal instability, a small amount Submarine is not a big problem for our **** force. And if a ship is sunk, we will ask other ships to continue sailing, and the rescue task will be handed over to professional ships.” Ron explained in great detail.
Three hours later, when all the fleets were gathered together, this large transport fleet named Cormorant embarked on a journey. The fleet had a total of 80 transport ships of various types, 10 destroyers and 5 auxiliary ships. The cruiser is composed of a total tonnage of more than 500,000 tons! They will carry more than 400,000 tons of food, weapons, ammunition, and various daily necessities across half of the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii. And just as the large cormorant transport fleet set off, another special transport fleet was also carrying out transportation tasks, but it was different from cormorants transporting a large amount of materials ~ www.novelhall.com ~ they transported people!
At this time in the port of Los Angeles, a tall cruise ship berthed in the best position in the port. This cruise ship was the East Africa cruise ship purchased by the Americans from Germany not long ago. It has a displacement of up to 30,000 tons. A cutting-edge cruise ship with a maximum speed of 27 knots, once won the blue ribbon, with excellent anti-sinking design, super-high speed and good sailing performance, the Americans saw this ship at a glance, and directly adopted a premium method from Hamburg Shipping Company bought it.
Subsequently, the ship was modified at the American shipyard to better transport personnel. Yes, the transportation of personnel in the US Army is separated from the transportation of ordinary materials. The common so-called large-scale transportation fleet will not be used to transport personnel, because the Americans feel that this speed is too slow and risky. After all, even the so-called high-speed fleet is only 10 knots or less, and a cruise ship in good condition can guarantee the entire voyage at a high speed of 23 knots or more. If it is long-distance running, high-speed cruise ships are actually more powerful than ordinary fast battleships. !
