"But it is obviously a good idea to rely on 5 dreadnograms to meet the 10-limbed fast warships of Russia and the Netherlands, and the difference in firepower projection between the two sides is too large. Even if the 10-inch 50L gun is paired with reasonable armor-piercing shells, it can make a lot of holes in the nose and tail armor of the dreadnought and non-key protection areas. Because of the problem of water ingress or the damage of high-explosive shells, even dreadnoughts can be sunk, let alone those cruisers that are already outdated. Even I doubt that our two battle cruisers will be able to hold out under the blows of high-density KO-inch 50-gun guns. After all, the thickness of the main equipment is not enough to withstand a 10-inch gun at close range. And in ocean-going operations, our warships will maintain heavy loads. Liu Buyun voiced his concerns.

"Don't think about the problem so seriously, the opponent's fast fleet will not always gather together, if we can seize the opportunity of the opponent's division of troops to eat part of it first, our situation will be very good, it may not be easy to sink the dreadnought-type fast battleship, but those mounted cruisers are quite vulnerable under the blow of 12-inch heavy guns, and it is very likely that a Russian mounted patrol can be terminated in dozens of minutes. And although we are far away...... However, the Longxu-class battlecruisers have a great advantage in terms of speed, and even if we count the losses, we can still catch up with the opponent's loading cruisers and deal a fatal blow. "I'm not used to seeing a somewhat dull atmosphere, #阝世昌大声说道. In his opinion, tactically we can think more about difficulties, but we must not be afraid. And the current atmosphere he thinks is very bad.........

"We're not just dealing with the opposing side's fast fleet, if our speed is below 18 knots or if we have battle damage. So I guess the Russian dreadnoughts staying in the port of Batavia will not give up this opportunity, right? Don't forget that the Borodino-class battleships also have a speed of up to 19 knots, and if necessary, they will also participate in the encirclement of us, and with the addition of 7BK and a large number of auxiliary warships, our whereabouts are easily exposed. Liu Buyun reminded. This is the first time that the Chinese Navy is on the outside of the enemy's waters, and many things that did not need to be considered before must now be considered.

"Actually, I want to say. We should think differently, why do we have to sail in the Java Sea for a long time? Our mission is not to break diplomatic relations, but to destroy the other side's fleet. So there is no need for us to cruise in the Java Sea for a long time and search for those transport ships, our first target is the enemy fast fleet, the second target is the enemy fast fleet, and the third target is the enemy fast fleet! Xu Jie's voice broke the silence.

"yes, why didn't I think of that? We sailed as guerrillas rather than harassing the opposing side, quickly entering the war zone, searching the opposing fleet and delivering a fatal blow, and finally quickly withdrawing from the battlefield. There is absolutely no need for us to stay in the Java Sea for a long time. Naturally, submarines are responsible for the task of breaking diplomatic relations. What kind of time is wasted on capital ships and transport ships, and using expensive capital ships to break the deal is a good strategy in itself. Liu Buyun suddenly reacted and ..........

If you change your thinking, all problems will be solved, and you will go to the other party to open the film, so you are not afraid of being discovered. It is difficult to get close to the opposing patrol fleet in enemy waters. Either you find the opposing fleet, or you let the opposing fleet find you. In short, it must be encountered, and the former is obviously difficult. At the same time, if the other party discovers your fleet in time, the smoke of war still exists, for example, if you divide the fleet into two teams, one in front and one in the back, the news that the other party gets is incomplete after all. And in this way, Huaxia Sea qF to T we big ugly originally 19 in the cruising fuel. The problem of the decrease in combat power due to the load problem has also been solved!

"Also, can we be prepared to keep the fast transport fleet responsible for delivering supplies to the fleet before entering the Java Sea? During the Spanish-American War, the Americans also specially equipped high-speed merchant ships with artillery as auxiliary cruisers, and the speed of those merchant ships was not full at all than that of battleships, and the maximum speed was actually 22 knots! More than 10,000 tons of big guys! With these merchant ships transporting fuel and supplies, we would be able to set off at the southern entrance of the Makassar Strait! And the high speed of 22 knots can basically throw off the tracking of the opponent's capital ship. Of course, I think that the Russians and the Dutch will not easily enter the Makassar Strait, in which case they will have a better chance of meeting our main fleet. …………。 Yang Yonglin's brain turned quickly, and in less than two minutes, he came up with another solution to the supply and voyage!

"If this is the case, our armored cruisers can also participate in the battle with a suitable load, although they are still inferior to the new ones of the Russian-Dutch Navy in terms of performance, but the combat effectiveness is still preserved a lot. It's possible to fight. In this way, we can put together 10 capital ships and fight with the fast fleet of the Russian-Dutch fleet, although we suffer a little loss in terms of fast cruisers, but we have an advantage in terms of dreadnoughts. "#阝世昌有些激动的说道.

"If this is formed, I am afraid that the main force of the Russian Navy led by Makanov will meet us! Ten warships are swaggering through the Java Sea, and it is difficult for the other party to find out? As long as there was a radio on the opposing ship, it was easy to relay the telegraph by wire on land to the main force of the Russian Navy in Octavia. And although the speed of the armored cruiser has increased due to the reduced load, this is only from 16 knots to 18 to 19 knots. There is no advantage in speed compared to the new Russian battleships, and more importantly, ...... Once there is a battle wound, 100% will be overtaken, I am afraid that it will not even be able to hold out at night and be sunk, and now the two sides are fighting on a large scale, and the firepower of a few warships can sink an obsolete armored cruiser of less than 10,000 tons in a very short time. Ding Zhuangqian, who had not spoken, suddenly said, this former commander of the Nanyang Navy, after joining the Huaxia Navy, has been relatively marginal, although the senior management of the Huaxia Navy did not deliberately alienate him, but because of the relationship between the record and the foreign department, he is also a vice admiral, and he obviously does not have the right to speak Liu Buyun and Deng Shi.........chang.

"I agree with General Ding's opinion, any warship is a valuable asset of the Huaxia Navy, even if the performance is a little backward and the hull is a little old, but in the decisive battle of the fleet, it can still be used to deal with the opponent's lightning ships and light cruisers. So we have to be cautious with every warship. Xu Jie's words broke the silence of the venue, and at the same time rounded the scene for the somewhat embarrassed Ding Zhuangqian. Of course. The most important thing is that Xu Jie vetoed Deng Shichang's idea of large-scale combat to a certain extent. It's just that Xu Jie's statement is quite euphemistic.

As long as there is war, there will be sacrifices, which is unavoidable, but as a senior general, you must cherish every comrade-in-arms and every weapon in your hands. Although we can't degenerate into avoiding war and protecting ships, we must not hold the idea that warships are consumables and just fight a decisive battle. #阝世昌虽然并没有这样想, but this idea of a direct decisive battle is still unacceptable - because of the wsbbns7bn symbol of the very lf luo qb 卩!

"The task of our navy, in addition to defeating the Russian fleet, is to occupy the Dutch colony, including part of the territory of Kalimantan, so at the beginning of the war we need the main naval forces to provide cover for the operations of the army and marines on the islands.........

So we need to procrastinate and consume. Instead of starting with a decisive battle, this naval battle will be longer than any naval battle we have experienced, because the other side is stronger, and because the sea area is more vast, it is unrealistic to think that the victory or defeat will be decided through a war. The task of the fast fleet is to weaken the enemy's fast fleet, and the early task of the main fleet of the navy is to cover the offensive of the army. Xu Jie looked at Deng Shichang, who was a little embarrassed, and said.

Naval battles between great powers are ultimately won by long attrition at sea, as is the case in both the Age of Sail and the Age of Dreadnought, and one of the most important problems is that it is difficult to defeat a fleet nested in a harbor, and this problem was not finally solved until the advent of aircraft carriers. Xu Jie didn't think that the Huaxia fleet would attack Batavia with all its strength at the beginning, but the mine array outside Batavia would limit the Huaxia fleet to a range beyond the best range of naval guns, and the Russian fleet itself was strong, so it was obviously unrealistic to go up directly to fight. …………。

What's more important is that the main fleet is much larger than the fast fleet, although if you count the capital ships of more than tons, the number of fast dreadnought formations plus cruiser formations is more than that of the main fleet with 7 battleships, but if you count the light cruisers and destroyers in the main fleet, as well as various auxiliary ships, then the actual size of the main fleet is about twice as much as that of the fast fleet! The huge scale and huge consumption of more than a dozen light cruisers and dozens of mine-striking ships made it impossible for the Huaxia Navy to maintain its presence in the Java Sea for a long time! The Chinese Navy came and the Russian Navy hid...... When you're gone, I'll come out again, as long as the Russians plan to play hide and seek with you, then you can't help it!

Therefore, the vast majority of the top brass of the Chinese Navy thinks. In the early stage, by consuming the opponent's strength, step by step to expand the advantage, and after a certain degree of advantage, even with the assistance of mine arrays and batteries, the Huaxia Navy can launch a strong attack! If the ports of the rest of the Russian Navy could be swept away before the assault, then I am afraid that there would be no need to attack Batavia. The sustained combat capability of the Russian Navy will also be greatly reduced, for the simple reason that Batavia will not be able to meet all the needs of such a large fleet, and a large number of fuel, spare parts and factories will need to be distributed elsewhere! And these places are not as well protected as Batavia! …。
