After receiving the information, Dewey immediately ordered Uncle Sam's soldiers to prepare for war. The ships in port were loaded with fuel and ammunition, and even fresh water and food supplies were loaded onto the ships. It seemed that they were preparing for a protracted war.
Before the imperial attack arrived, the fleet quickly weighed anchor and left the harbor, heading outside the harbor to cruise in formation and wait.
Dewey is the most knowledgeable ghost guy in the world about the performance of the Chinese Empire's ships. The terrifying strike speed and range forced Dewey to pull the fleet out of the military port. Otherwise, the fleet would have to be trapped and die like the John Bull Empire's Far East Fleet.
Within the harbor.
This gap in technology is the biggest headache for the Western powers. Just like the John Bull Empire's Far East Fleet, although it is not equipped with the John Bull Empire's most advanced ironclads, in terms of the quality of the John Bull Empire's navy itself, it ranks first in the world.
It is unparalleled.
But such a powerful fleet, which had been tempered for thousands of times, was almost completely wiped out by the emperor in the military port without preparation, and even without the ability to fight back. This was something that was unimaginable in the past.
With the lessons learned from the past and the experience of fighting the Imperial Pacific Fleet, Dewey did not dare to wait for the Imperial fleet in the military port. But he did not dare to leave the port too far. You must know that the Imperial ships
The carrier aircraft has extremely abnormal combat capabilities. How could Dewey dare to escape the assistance of anti-aircraft artillery?
Although Dewey and Chen Bing Joseph's Boba Bay coastline is only tens of thousands of meters away from his main naval port of Kitts, he still put the entire fleet in a defensive formation. He also notified the Third Fleet in Australia for this purpose
.Be prepared to defend against the Imperial Navy.
Amidst Dewey's anxiety, a small black dot finally appeared in the northeast. Under the gaze of Sam's soldier, the black shadow revealed the true form of two fighter planes. From the unique dragon-shaped logo on the wings, we could know that these were Imperial fighter planes.
When it flew over the Dewey First Fleet, the fighter planes circled and did not launch an attack. On the Dewey First Fleet aircraft carrier, several carrier-based aircraft also took off to meet it. However, due to the high altitude of the Imperial fighter planes,
, the Sam fighter planes did not dare to climb high to attack. Instead, they performed a warning cruise mission above the fleet.
"Report to Commander, there is a call from the forward reconnaissance plane. It has encountered Uncle Sam's First Fleet. The enemy fleet is attacking the coastline of Bawan. Please give instructions, Commander!" The intelligence officer reported to Deng Shichang, out of breath from running.
"Line up to welcome? - So is there any news from the enemy's second fleet?" Deng Shichang's eyes lit up and he asked the intelligence officer.
"Yes! The enemy's second fleet is also lined up outside Hedland Naval Port."
"Where are the John Bull Empire's Australian Squadron and the Hong Kong Squadron?" Deng Shichang asked again.
"According to the intelligence of our ghost fleet, these two fleets are all cruising in the Great Australian Bight, and there is no sign of movement to the northern seas."
"Record: Requesting instructions from the Imperial General Staff, our East China Sea Fleet is preparing to land on a beach in Australia. The location is Darwin Shoal. Please ask the headquarters for approval!" Deng Shichang discovered a flaw in the enemy's intelligence. The enemy was fully defending the main military port and paying attention to the Australian Shoal.
Seriously inadequate. Therefore, he changed his plan of shooting and leaving and decided to implement an army landing plan.
After being transferred by the Shenlong, Deng Shichang's command request telegram arrived at the General Staff Headquarters in the imperial capital in an instant.
After Liu Chengliang learned about it, he immediately asked Zhou Yu for instructions and conducted a military chess game.
Zhou Yu’s reply was very concise: “It’s feasible!”
Flag Deduction: "It's doable!"
So, the General Staff Headquarters called back: "It can be executed, but the pressure on the enemy must not be too great, lest the entire Sam people collapse!"
At the same time, the General Staff Headquarters issued an order to the Southern Theater Command: "Send troops to cooperate with Deng Shichang's command and control the enemy's Darwin area!"
Deng Shichang did not wait for the order from the General Staff Headquarters, but arranged in advance for the fleet to escort 5,000 Marine Corps soldiers and advance towards Darwin. By the time the order from the General Staff Headquarters was conveyed, the Marine Corps soldiers were already halfway...
At the same time as the Imperial Marine Corps sailed out of the East China Sea, nearly a hundred of the Empire's shore-based fighter jets stationed at Fair Harbor took off. The target was directed towards the Cape York Peninsula, the Wessel Islands and the Melville Island Observation Station. Moreover, the two ships
The Sam submarine squatting outside Fair Harbor naturally sent them to feed the sharks.
At noon, with the scorching sun in the sky, Uncle Sam's First Fleet and the Empire's Deng Shichang and Ye Chen aircraft carrier formations finally looked at each other across the sea. Of course, this look was relative, because it was impossible for the two Empire's aircraft carrier formations to get close to each other. Aircraft carriers
It's a game where the king can't see the king!
In order to well cover the actions of the Marine Corps, Deng Shichang ordered the fleet aircraft carrier to release fighter jets. He also sent several high-speed warships to move towards the enemy, taking advantage of their speed and range to threaten enemy ships from a long distance.
There was also a strange-looking slow-speed ship following behind it, and on both sides of the strange ship, there were several thin metal wires swaying faintly in the air. If the former Uncle Sam sailor Lawrence Steer was still alive
If so, he would immediately scream: "Bomb!" Unfortunately, he was already buried in the Atlantic Ocean.
These things hanging under the water on both sides of the strange ship are Tian Ergou and the others who once sailed in Daxi
A disposable weapon used on the ocean - micro electronic submarine. Since it has not been suitable for environmental use, this electronic remote-controlled underwater bomb has not been used again. But it has been updated.
The so-called micro-electronic submarine in the early days was an underwater electronic remote-controlled boat loaded with special torpedoes, special electric motors, and special electronic receivers. The upgraded electronic remote-controlled boats have broken away from the limitations of the past.
, turned into a real underwater killing weapon.
At this time, the underwater electronic remote-controlled ship had breakthroughs in distance and fixed depth, especially fixed depth. When attacking enemy ships, it was no longer exposed on the sea surface and could submerge at a depth of about 3 meters below the sea level.
,In this sense, it becomes a real mini-submarine.
Since Zhou Yu has now lifted the ban on the Imperial Navy, Deng Shichang also scooped up the mini-submarine, a secret weapon of the navy, for use. This strange-looking ship is the Imperial Special Electronic Radar Ship and is also the mothership of the mini-submarine.
.
Under the cover of several high-speed warships, the electronic submarine mothership successfully arrived at the sea area 30 kilometers northeast of the Dewey First Fleet. Along the way, the enemy did not send submarines for reconnaissance. The imperial fighter planes hovering over the Dewey Fleet continued to attack the electronic submarine.
The mothership provides the speed, course, and size of the enemy ship. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.
