Chapter 1352: The Last Supply
Somewhere in the South Pacific, the smoke of gunpowder has not dissipated, countless black smoke produced by explosions and burning, still spreading above the sea, countless souls of grievances, it seems to be rising and falling in the black smoke, from the beginning of the war to the end now, the time is too fast, a war that happened in the southern hemisphere, suddenly encountered and started, it only took a short ten minutes to end, one side was not damaged at all, the other side was hit hard, 6 warships, successively sunk into the deep Atlantic.
Deng Jieqian's fleet attacked too fast, because the speed was too fast, most of the ships were the first to be attacked devastatingly, don't be stared at the light patrol and the two destroyers who bore the brunt, they all suffered a huge blow at the first time, and they sank in dozens of seconds, at most only 2 minutes, in this era, under the more complicated method of sending telegrams, they simply issued telegrams, and even the navy on the ships, very few escaped, and basically sank into the sea with the ships.
That is, the last two destroyers, especially the last one, sank into the sea after 12 minutes, so the telecommunications officers on their ships had enough time to send reports, as early as the time of the Titanic, there were already marine radios, but the reliability was not strong, they hurriedly sent what happened, but because of the distance in the southern hemisphere, this hastily sent out the message, one of the ships made a large area of error, and the radio that received the telegram could not determine what he was. As for the other one, no one received it at all.
This was normal in the era at that time, and there were cruise ships that disappeared inexplicably on the sea, and they may have encountered wind and waves. Maybe it's some other natural disaster, just a mysterious disappearance. The simple reason is that the reliability of the radio is not high. Radio of this era. Due to the lack of stable performance and the high packet drop rate, it is often necessary to connect with each other before they can transmit data to each other, and in this way, it must be confirmed again and again.
Radio signals, any change in the slightest degree, means something else, the message of this era. And as concise as possible, as long as a few signals are discarded, perhaps, a precise command will become something else, so uncertain, so that radio command can only become a mirror, and even the radio contact of ocean-going warships, the efficacy is also placed after the cable telegraph.
It is completely impossible to be like the future generations. After the hair, it didn't matter, which caused this submarine attack, which was almost hidden in the depths of the sea. It was not until more than a month later that the two surviving British soldiers reported the attack. It's a pity that time has passed, and the submarine attack has been completely lost. This attack was regarded as a planned sneak attack by the German submarine forces. Once again, it hung on the head of Germany.
In the eyes of the British, in this position, in this sea area, there were only evil German submarines, under the premise that the North Atlantic could not take any advantage, left the North Atlantic and flowed to the South Atlantic, just in time to meet the unprepared Australian fleet, which was caught off guard and was secretly attacked.
This can be explained, why the disappearance of a whole fleet recorded the results of the battle on the heads of the Germans, and retaliated back in the future, but it is recorded like this, there are more unsolved mysteries, how many submarines sneaked attack, and the torpedo that did not have any trajectory, because even if the Australian fleet did not send enough lookouts in accordance with the regulations, but there were still a few, the torpedoes of German submarines, they also came into contact, there was no such terrible, at least to see, one of the two people who survived, It was the last ship to sink, and they clearly remembered that when it had not yet sunk, the captain frantically asked the lookout for the scene, but the lookout didn't see it at all, and they didn't know why, the torpedo would come and attack, so they didn't expect it at all, it was too sudden.
This may really only be regarded as an unsolved mystery, completely pressed into the naval records of the Entente, at most a report was formed, focusing on the new torpedoes of the German Navy, and in the end, the name of the Atlantic shipping lane was attacked on Germany, but it saved China a lot of hands and feet, preconceived notions, China has never shown itself in the world, and the power in the navy may only be known to Germany, not only the Germans.
But at present, the Germans and the Chinese are allies, and at this moment, of course, it is a muffled fortune, so that he will not make China's strength strong and preach everywhere, and only if China hides it well, can it deal a greater blow to the Entente in the future. Since the United States dares to declare war on China, it must have a certain degree of certainty, and in addition, the United States has actually obtained a large number of benefits from China with the help of commodity sales, most of which are in kind, but the combined value is enough to make up for the consumption of the United States.
The war has entered the third year now, and even if it is a whole year, more than 2 years have passed, and the two sides have already fought a real fire, no matter who is right or wrong, millions of people have been injured on both sides, and countless families have lost their fathers, brothers, and sons.
In this way, for more than a month before the return of the survivors of the British Navy, no one knew that such a battle had taken place here, and according to the agreement, a month later, the time for the return of the Australian fleet had passed, and the British Admiralty also investigated, but unfortunately there was no news, and it could only be dealt with as a disappearance, which also became a big problem for the Allied fleet.
About the Australian fleet, is an absolute afterword, up to now, no one in the Entente has known, even the Allies, Deng Jieqian has been hesitating, he knows very well, this is the southern coast of Africa, the results achieved here, you can report it to the country, but you can't contact Germany, believe it or not is on the one hand, on the other hand, it is not easy to hide, after weighing the pros and cons, he sent a telegram to the country, and soon, the domestic telegram came back, and the fleet department commended Deng Jieqian for his outstanding contributions, The credit has already been written, but this time the results will not be communicated to Germany, as if there had never been such a thing.
According to the previous plan, they were going to contact the German side after arriving on the North Atlantic route, and then the exploits and achievements of the war would be shared with Germany.
Deng Jieqian read the telegram, he didn't say anything, military merits or anything, as long as the country is recognized, he doesn't have too many problems, at this moment, the captains of other warships are still excited, of course this is not where to sneak attack the Australian fleet, although the ambush place is relatively remote, at this time it is full of broken wreckage of the battleship, the burning black smoke is almost shrouded everywhere, and there are surviving British soldiers, as long as any ship passes here, they will pay attention to this, it is not suitable for them to stay for a long time.
All the Deng Jie cadres moved forward almost at full speed, and walked for about 3 hours before slowing down and continuing to move forward at the speed of cruising, but in the channel of the fleet and the fleet, the discussion about this time has not stopped, most of the submariners are taking over the Qin class for the first time, and they don't particularly understand the efficacy of the Qin class, and they didn't even think that 93 flying fish torpedoes can kill 6 warships, and some people are even discussing, are they too careful, in fact, half, Even a third of the number can take out these battleships.
For his subordinates with the help of radio, simple communication, Deng Jieqian does not care, the communication uses a relatively long wave, it is easy to attenuate in the seawater, more than 50 kilometers, there will be no signal, this is also a safe way to communicate with each other, with such a contact, to reach a tacit understanding, it is also a good choice, as for only one-third of which fleet can be killed, under the circumstances, even if you know that you can, and then go back to that moment, He will still choose such an offensive, he must ensure that they do not escape from their attack range, 3 torpedoes, against 31 Qin-class ships with a total of 64 pieces, it is not a problem at all, if it is not in the exercise, shooting too much, he will even increase to 4, or even more.
Submarines do not rely on the limit or luck to fight, with the weak protection ability of submarines, like assassins, to complete the attack on the opponent in the first time, can not give the opponent a chance to counterattack, this is what he should do, perhaps in the future, for the use of flying torpedoes, to reach a familiar, even proficient level, he will reduce, with a relatively small number of torpedoes to achieve better results, but now, no, this is a fleet that has just been formed, has not yet been completely run-in, can only win but not defeat.
Once defeated, it is impossible for the fleet to accept, the submarine forces that came to Europe are the most elite forces in China's submarine forces, since Deng Jieqian brought them out, of course he wants to bring them all back, and any slightest loss is unacceptable.
This encounter, although achieved good results, but for Deng Jieqian, it is also a huge lesson, from this day, they chose to be more cautious, the lookout is also more effective, without encountering any emergencies or encounters, it took almost a few days of effort, from the southern coast of Africa, arrived near Brazil, according to the previous plan, the submarine force will receive the third supply here, and it is also the last supply before going to Europe, after the supply is completed, They will continue to march into Europe to complete the task of blocking the communication lines of the Entente. (To be continued.) )
