"Really? That being the case, then I hope that day will come soon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 "As a senior admiral of the Royal Navy, although Thomas has not been involved in anti-breach operations, he still understands some principles, such as the fact that the side that breaks the conflict will choose to operate on the busiest shipping routes. Especially for Su Xiong's fleet, this is often the most efficient, camouflage attack ships to defend against the opponent's escort fleet and auxiliary cruisers, so they may ambush and fall a single ship in relatively remote sea areas, but Su Xiong is not necessary, and even he hopes to meet the opponent's auxiliary cruiser .......

Therefore, the anti-break side will definitely set a trap near the main shipping route. And in fact, the British Navy planned far more than Thomas thought! In fact, soon after the Su-Xiong fleet made its first move, the British had already begun to modify the normal course, and now almost no ship dared to take ...... from India to the Gulf of Aden. Generally, the ships of the Entente countries sailed south from India, along the islands of Malé, Diego Garcia, and Rodrigues, and then turned westward, bypassing Mauritius and the southern island of Madagascar, and then entering the Atlantic Ocean through the Horn of Africa.

From the point of view of the voyage, this is of course a big circle, but at the same time it also increases the cost of breaking the diplomatic relations of the German fleet, and the route moves east to south, and the German fleet naturally needs to be farther away from its own base. There are also more supplies needed. But these are superficial phenomena! In fact, the most fundamental reason why the British did this was that they could roughly determine the orientation of the German fleet! And the specific means naturally cannot rely on camouflage reconnaissance ships alone! As the British Empire, which was leading in electronic technology until World War II, the current radio lateral technology has played very well!

That's right, you read that right, it's radio sideways, which seem to be more advanced and profound, has actually been widely used in World War I, and the British began to deploy radio direction finding stations in the east of England in 1915. With this system, the British could conduct direction finding on the radio operations of aircraft and warships in the North Sea, and the British used a Bellini-Tosi direction finding antenna produced by the Italian company Marconi, and through a series of chain-like direction finding stations, the British greatly increased their ability to control the North Sea!

And in this plane, when the Suchon fleet began to wreak havoc at sea, the British also installed these direction-finding devices on the islands in the Indian Ocean in order to capture the location information of the German fleet and the American camouflaged supply ships, and the routes taken by the Entente fleets passed through the surrounding areas of these islands, so this greatly increased the probability that the British could capture the German fleet by radio!

Although the Suchon fleet did a good job, at Raeder's request, the fleet's communication frequency was constantly changed, while minimizing unnecessary transmissions. But how can you stand by the river without getting your shoes wet. And how can the radio equipment on the ship compare with the land-based? Therefore, the British were able to capture the whereabouts of German battleships at some times through radio technology and camouflage reconnaissance ships, although they could not track them stably.

And now, the plan of the British has reached the last moment, they only need to capture an American camouflaged supply ship ready to resupply, and then get the contact information, code book, and sea area where they know to resupply in the last few days! And now, at least 3 capture squads are operating in the Indian Ocean.

Each capture group consisted of two ships, both of which were auxiliary cruisers converted from high-speed civilian vessels, with a maximum speed of about 15 knots. One of the auxiliary cruisers was armed with 8 6-inch guns and a certain number of small guns, as well as torpedoes, and this auxiliary cruiser was called the A-ship, which was used to assist against possible auxiliary cruisers and camouflaged supply ships that intercepted the Americans. The B ship itself is not highly armed, but it has complete electronic equipment, including multi-band radio receiving antennas, a Bellini-Tosi radio direction finding system, and electronic jamming equipment!

That's right, you read that right, with the advent of radio communications, electronic interference also appeared almost at the same time, at this time, everyone's radio communication frequency bands are mainly medium wave, and there is no frequency hopping and frequency conversion technology, so directly through blocking clutter interference can paralyze radio communications within a certain range. The British planned so well that they even took into account the possibility of the Americans releasing early warning telegrams. Without this level, the British can't be the boss of the world!

And now, Operation Team 2 has found a target 70 nautical miles west of the island of Diego Garcia! Major Wells, the captain of ship A, is confirming the last information with his subordinates!

"The target ship is named Xingchen, a ship with a registered tonnage of 5,000 tons, which was requisitioned by the US Navy in July this year and secretly converted into a supply ship, carrying at least 2,000 tons of heavy oil and other materials, with a maximum speed of 12 knots, no armament, and half of the participants are retired US Navy personnel. In the supply fleet numbered AF-3. The German fleet was to be refueled in 4 days. There are a total of 65 crew members on it. ”

"Ship A is responsible for attacking, first warning shots to force the opponent to stop, then boarding the ship to quickly control the core compartments such as the bridge and the radio telegraph room, we can use force, and can use incapacitating weapons such as tear gas, ship B will be responsible for suppressing the opponent's radio equipment, we will only act at dawn, close to the opponent with our back to the sun! There are still 3 hours left until the start of the operation. Captain Wells said.

"Now, let's keep track of it, and the rest of us can choose to rest." Whether it is difficult to track a ship at night, to be honest, is not easy, but if the other party is not aware of the danger, there is no light control on the ship, and the speed is only 9 knots, then it is still possible to track the ship, and the two British Navy auxiliary cruisers with light control are sailing slowly about 3 kilometers behind the Star at this time. They are now waiting, waiting for the dawn of the day.

"Something seems to be following us?" When the lookout hand of the Star rubbed his sleepy-eyed eyes and looked out to sea, through the thin sea fog of the morning, he could see two huge figures rapidly approaching him!

"It's not like you're dazzled, is it?" A colleague next to him snorted. But soon, when a gust of sea breeze blew and the fog cleared a little, the two Americans saw more clearly, not only the appearance of the comer, but also the things that frightened and surprised them! Two flags with red crosses on a white background were quickly raised to the top of the mast! This is exactly the battle flag of the British Royal Navy!
