Chapter 2579 rip off the cocoon

"Because there is no way to explain! Some of our systems are not recognized in your army, so some things cannot be explained. Of course, the problem of simple language does not matter. The most important thing is that I am worried about some other problems! I think that in this case, we should not expose it!" Su Xiong said. "Okay, I have said all that should be said. From now on, please be quiet. Once there is a problem, I will take all the responsibility, and you can prove me as an eyewitness!" Su Xiong's patience was finally exhausted. He has more important things to do now, so he just wants to talk to people of the same level, such as Raidel!

"What do you think?" Su Xiong looked at Redell.

"It is unreasonable to perform sneak attack missions in a mixed combination of high-speed super-dreadnought and slow-speed front-dreadnought." Raidel said.

"What then?" Su Xiong asked.

"However, General Benson did not realize that there was some parallel goods mixed in it. So, he firmly believed that this was the main force of the Japanese fleet." Raidel said.

"If you just want to win a tactical victory, then the Japanese can choose to evacuate after annihilation of the Sixth Battleship Squadron. However, they have not left yet, and even took the former dreadnought to drag down their speed. That can only explain one problem. The Japanese want General Benson to target this fleet."

"The Japanese must have big plans. They even pulled up the former dreadnoughts, so the real elites cannot be absent, they must be hiding around." Su Xiong said.

"So good, we can now be sure that what is still bombarding the US positions is just bait. So, what is the purpose of the Japanese army? Is it the Benson fleet or the transport fleet behind us?" Redel looked at Su Xiong with deep eyes, hoping that he could come up with a result!

"I feel like we have grasped the core of the problem. Tonight, we are facing the full-time Japanese joint fleet." Su Xiong immediately turned his head and said to the staff officer next to him: "Immediately remark the positions of each enemy and our fleets. Prepare to release the seaplane!"

"We should send a message to Benson immediately, let him get closer to us immediately, let us go west, let Benson go east!" Redel said. In an instant, Redel considered the two choices of the Japanese. The first choice was to use some warships as bait to lure Benson into the bait, and then concentrate all his strength to severely damage the main force of the US fleet. The second choice was to lure the US fleet northward, and then quickly attack the US transport fleet!

In a short period of time, Raidel didn't know what choice the Japanese army would make in the end, so the most conservative outbreak was naturally to persuade Benson's fleet to move eastward and then go westward. Before the Japanese's final attempt was exposed, the two sides would meet. By then, no matter how the Japanese choose, they would not get any advantage when they encountered the United States-German Fleet!

"It may be difficult to convince Benson to let him give up the prey he got," said Su Xiong.

"Then we can move west quickly." Nimitz said hurriedly.

"If this is the case, what should the Japanese do to make the second choice? We are sailing relative to the Japanese. Once we miss it, just give the main force of the Japanese joint fleet half an hour, which will cause irreparable losses." Raidel seemed to be answering Nimitz's question, but he looked at Su Xiong.

So, the two fell into a dilemma. After all, the Germans needed to make completely opposite decisions for the different choices of the Japanese Navy. If they were determined that the Japanese fleet would ambush Benson's fleet, then Su Xiong had to rush to the battlefield at full speed, which would inevitably be far away from the transportation fleet in the core area. And if he made a mistake in his judgment, then as Raidel said, the time would not be delayed, and half an hour would be allowed to go to the military court!

If it is determined that the Japanese want to attack the transport fleet in the core area, Su Xiong must try to hide himself and move closer to the core area, and then find a way to notify Benson. However, this approach is also risky. After all, if the assessment is wrong, then Benson's fleet will face a relatively bad situation and will also be criticized for unfavorable rescue. And the most important thing is, if the Japanese fleet rushed over directly, wouldn't it be equivalent to exposing his position at this time? Before, wasn't Su Xiong trying his best to reduce radio communications just to hide? In this case, it was very difficult for Su Xiong to make a decision.

"The communication frequency band is normal now, and General Benson did not mention anything except urging us. Then at least the Benson fleet is safe now. Moreover, considering that the Benson fleet is equipped with a destroyer far exceeding the Japanese fleet, I think that even if it encounters an unexpected accident, it will not collapse immediately. Do you think so?" Although Radell was asking, there was no doubt that this answer itself has a very strong tendency!

"Redel, you are usurping. The Chief of Staff should only provide information to the military chief objectively, rather than make decisions for us." Su Xiong said with a smile.

"Okay, after the war, I'll get a drink." Radell was relieved because he knew that Su Xiong had adopted his opinion.

"But congratulations, if you guessed it right this time, then you can sit in my position in the future." Su Xiong said.

"What if I guessed wrong?" Redell asked.

"That depends on your performance next time. I will grow old after all. The future will be your young people." Su Xiong said. Su Xiong's answer moved Redel, because Su Xiong had made a clear statement. If Redel guessed wrong this time, he would assume all the responsibility for Redel!

"You actually don't need to do this." Redel said with some emotion.

"The torch is passed on from generation to generation." Su Xiong was too lazy to explain anything. However, in his diary, he described his thoughts when he made this decision.

"At this time, the German High Seas Fleet is invincible. We have the most powerful fleet in the world, as well as the best commanders and soldiers. Marshal Schell, Earl Spee, and Marshal Hippel are enough to take on the backbone of the High Seas Fleet, but we will eventually grow old. We must leave some people for the future High Seas Fleet who can bear the heavy responsibility, because in the future, we have passed away, and Crown Prince Ruprecht can't continue to go to the battlefield. I think Redel is a very good candidate, and Count Lukner is another. As my last mission in the High Seas Fleet, it is to help Redel grow to be independent enough!"
