Chapter four hundred and seventy third: Thousand miles blocking
Zhou Yu and Tesla were deep in the mountains, inspecting the progress of cutting-edge technological projects in the Plan to Destroy Heaven, but they had no idea that a shocking event had happened in Malacca!
When the battle entered the sixth day, a huge piece of bad news was learned by the Southern Command. According to the confessions of two ghost soldiers who captured the enemy's Singapore headquarters, as early as the first day of the battle, the Empire
The fragments of the three downed Imperial Locust aircraft were not completely destroyed, but were obtained by the John Bull people.
And was taken out by the escape ship of the John Bull Far East Fleet! This kind of news is nothing more than shocking and bad news for the Southern Command! You know, once the enemy obtains the fragments and successfully develops a fighter aircraft that is the same as the Imperial Locust aircraft, what will happen?
It’s unimaginable!
Therefore, the Southern Command immediately telegraphed to the Skeleton Fleet in Somalia and the Pacific Fleet in Hawaii to block the sea lanes that might transport the fragments to Uncle Sam's country and John Bull's empire. They must obtain them at any cost, or
Destroy the fragments and never let the enemy get them.
Moreover, he also asked Zhou Yu for help, hoping that Zhou Yu's Shenlong could detect where the fragments were?! However, there was no response to the tried and tested telegram calls in the past. It turned out that the mastermind was afraid that Zhou Yu's interest would be disturbed by the outside world.
The radio wave induction system was actively turned off. As a result, telegrams from the southern theater were not responded to!
At this time, it has been more than five days since the enemy obtained the fragments and escaped. It is impossible for everyone to predict where the enemy will transport the fragments?! In the vast sea, it is not ordinary to send warships to block the attack. The only hope we have now is
What we have high hopes for is the interception of the Skeleton Fleet and the Pacific Fleet!
After receiving the secret message from the southern command, the Skeleton Fleet immediately dispatched its entire force and secretly blocked the entrance and exit of the Gulf of Aden. (.._&书&) and also dispatched 4 fast torpedo leaders with electronic radar devices. Spread out a certain amount of
range, rushing towards the Indian Ocean. Because according to time calculations, the opponent must not have reached the Gulf of Aden.
In addition, the Tian Aijun submarine squad is also hidden around the Gulf of Aden, closely monitoring the waters. Because everyone knows that if the other party wants to send the fragments to the John Bull Empire, the Gulf of Aden is the only way it can pass, and it only needs to block the Gulf of Aden.
The opponent will have no way to hide.
The imperial radar stations hidden in Somalia and Yemen were fully activated, hoping to capture the enemy's radio messages.
Different from the Skeleton Fleet, the Empire's Pacific Fleet wants to block the opponent's transportation route to Uncle Sam's country. It is simply impossible to reach the sky. You must know that in the vast Pacific Ocean, the opponent has countless ways to go. North,
Both Central and South Pacific are available.
This greatly increases the difficulty of interception by the Pacific Fleet. However, it must be intercepted no matter how difficult it is. After all, the fragments of the Locust aircraft cannot fall into the hands of the enemy under any circumstances.
In order to increase the intensity of interception, Yan Bing sent out all the ships of the First Pacific Task Force. After repair, the completely new First Pacific Task Force was dispersed. Taking advantage of speed and radar,
Move towards the Central Pacific and South Pacific, hoping to block the enemy as much as possible.
But it is indeed not an easy task. Yan Bing and the others do not dare to block the outlet of the Panama Canal like Tian Aijun and others did. You know, it is in front of Uncle Sam's house, and there are always two large fleets patrolling there.
It’s a one-way journey!
Calculated based on the distance and the cruising speed of the John Bull Empire ships, it would take at least 14 days to travel day and night from the Malacca Sea to the Gulf of Aden; and it would take at least 23 days to travel from the Malacca Sea to the Panama Canal, and it would be similar to Cape Horn in South America.
Everyone believed that the enemy would never leave the fragments in Europe or India. Because at this time, Uncle Sam's country and John Bull's empire urgently needed the empire's advanced fighter technology. Relatively speaking, their fighter technology lagged behind the empire's.
Too much, and falling behind means being beaten. Therefore, it is business to send it back to the two countries for research as soon as possible!…
The Pacific Fleet failed to intercept it. The so-called enemy ship transporting the fragments may have been missed because of the large sea area, or the enemy did not transport it to Uncle Sam's country at all. After all, it was the John Bull Empire that obtained the fragments. Did he
It's worth considering whether you are willing to share it with Uncle Sam's country!
However, on the third day of their confrontation with the Skeleton Fleet, Li Yong and others obtained traces of two medium-sized ocean frigates belonging to the original Far East Fleet. The sea area where the two sides encountered was more than a thousand kilometers east of the Gulf of Aden.
In a certain sea area.
This was around 11:20 pm on the third day after receiving the order!
"Report to the Commander! Ship No. 3 sent news through the ship's movement. Two ships with a cruising speed of about 15 knots were found in the sea area 54 kilometers ahead of him. We suspect that the other ships are our target ships. Please give instructions, Commander!
"On flagship No. 1 of the Skeleton Fleet, the intelligence officer broke into the command tower with excitement and reported to Li Yong.
The so-called ship movement message is a naval communication method invented by Yan Bing. This is a special communication method for the naval fleet to report the enemy's situation through the movement of the ship body while maintaining radio silence. Its
The prerequisite is that the Empire's latest radar display technology is required.
"What? Found the enemy's trace!? Great!" Li Yong, whose eyes were red from the heat, heard this and stood up from the chair. In the past few days since receiving the telex, Li Yong has basically not rested.
, waiting anxiously for news every day, hoping to get the lost fragments as soon as possible.
At this time, he suddenly received such good news, and he was particularly excited. However, because he was standing too impatiently, his brain was temporarily deprived of oxygen, his vision went dark, and his body swayed. He hurriedly and instinctively put his hand on the table, not wanting to stop.
As for falling to the ground.
"Commander! What's wrong with you?!" The intelligence officer rushed over, held Li Yong's arms with both hands, and asked with an anxious look on his face.
"It's okay! Maybe I stood too fast, but it's okay now!" Li Yong waved his hand and replied warmly. But then he immediately shouted an order: "Quickly...inform the other two ships to move closer to the No. 3 ship, and the entire fleet
Ready to fight!"
"It's the commander!" Intelligence immediately stood at attention and replied. However, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he was worried and asked anxiously to the sallow-faced Li Yong: "Commander, are you okay? Do you need me to call someone in? Yours
He looks very bad!"
"How can there be so much nonsense? Is this general so weak? Hurry up and execute the order! It's a waste of time for the fighter. I only ask you!" Li Yong waved his hand and stared impatiently at the bloodshot bull's eyes, asking for the information.
