"That seems like a good idea. "Although he did not know why the German fleet dared to appear in this blockade area that the British called that even if a fish wanted to get out, it had to report to the Royal Navy."www.biquge.info However, since the German Navy dares to come, then there should be no problem....... And the situation seems to be a bit chaotic now, and it would be ......miserable if there was another British auxiliary cruiser with no bodyguards nearby. So, the Wilhelm followed quietly behind Von der Thanen, waiting to return together.

In the vicinity of the North Sea blockade, if there are several hundred ships, it must be blown NB, and if you count the torpedo boats and the warships of both sides and auxiliary cruisers, then there are probably more than 50. However, there are dozens of merchant ships from various countries in this sea area, which are still reliable. As a result, these seafarers of various countries who travel back and forth in the ocean, and it is not easy to see a large-scale operation of a capital ship, finally opened their eyes and witnessed the large-scale tearing between the most powerful navies in the world, although it is very unequal when it comes to the warships of the two warships.

"Look, God, the ship of the English is dying! Another shot, he's dead! On a merchant ship flying with an American flag, a hairy guy pointed to an auxiliary cruiser in the distance that was being chased by a German light cruiser.

"Didn't your ancestors come from England?" The first mate next to the young man said with some puzzlement.

"Lao Tzu's ancestors are Irish!" The young man gave the latter a blank look, and then refocused his gaze on the burning and sinking British light cruiser in the distance. After destroying these auxiliary cruisers, the Germans did not embarrass these merchant ships anymore, and fought again, leaving here, not sending any warning signals of radio signals, and then turned around to look for the next target.

"Major General Ace, a telegram from Major General Arbath Nott." An officer aboard the armored cruiser Hampshire sent a telegram from Rear Admiral Arbath Nott of the 1st Panzer Cruiser Detachment to Rear Admiral Ace.

"There was a powerful German fleet that had broken into our blockade zone, and so far we had 5 auxiliary cruisers confirmed missing, and from an intermittent telegram I found the word large ship, which shocked me, and when we tried to contact the battleship, the signal was lost. So, I suggest, in any case, that we should talk about the rest of the fleet being gathered up and then withdrawn to Shetland. And inform General Jericho. In the telegram, Major General Abasnot wrote.

"Very insightful except for the last sentence." Major General Ace commented. Inform Admiral Jericho? What do you think? Now the Grand Fleet is moving in the direction of the Dogle sandbank, not to mention whether it is in time or not, the value of Betty's battle cruiser formation alone is higher than that of the entire 10th light cruiser formation! The construction period of a capital ship is more than a year, and an auxiliary cruiser is much faster. So it's not useful to contact Jericho!

However, Ace also realized that the situation had changed dramatically, for example, where did the Minotaur, the number one red stick thug under his command now, go?! Although the Germans used electronic interference, it was impossible to guarantee that all radio communication bands would be blocked, and clutter would appear first in the frequency bands reserved by their own side, which was originally a warning signal, so it was normal for the British to find this problem, but it was already 2 and a half hours since the German fleet began to hunt the first auxiliary cruiser!

Hipper, of course, knew that his electromagnetic blockade would not last long, after all, electronic interference in this era was less reliable than radio communication, so Hipper pinned the initiative on another aspect - radio eavesdropping and radiolocation.

As mentioned earlier, each radio group has its own "fingerprint". This is not only because of the sender's own methods, but also because of the fleet's ability to equip warships of different classes with radio communication equipment, after all, this thing is also a high-tech, high-value item, you can't equip each auxiliary cruiser with a fleet command-level radio communication equipment, right.......

In this not vast sea, there are only two British warships that can reach this scale in power, and that is the flagships of Arbas and Ace! And Hipper was looking for these two radio signals with very obvious characteristics! Of course, the German fleet also had its own "fingerprints". But with mental calculations or not, the German fleet had already changed its radio equipment and common frequency bands before participating in the campaign, and at the same time changed operators, which is one of the important reasons why the British did not find any traces of the German fleet at first!

And for the various measures that the British might take, the prince and Hipper also studied, and suddenly a group of sharks broke into the fish pond, so what to do with those small fish? Most people only know one thing, and that is to run quickly, which is indeed a way, but in fact, the proportion of sharks is a little too high in such a range, and now, in this sea area, there are more hunters than prey! (counting the destroyers) how many slow-legged shrimp from the British can run away?!

So, if the British had done this, well, then Hipper would have won, but it is clear that the British were not so stupid, and the way they chose was to activate the backup radio band, and then gather all the British warships in this area and retreat in the direction of Shetland! Although the Grand Fleet is gone, and although the tonnage of the remaining warships in it may not be as high as the German fleet, the mine arrays, shipwreck blockades, and possible submarines are all a threat to the German fleet!

Just as the British generally do not enter the waters off the coast of Germany, the German fleet will not enter the waters off the coast of the Shetland Islands even if it has a huge advantage, because it will not be able to do it! Maybe the British had terrible mines, maybe the German fleet had a lot of escort warships, but they were afraid of everything, for example, what if a battlecruiser hit a mine or torpedo and exploded? Isn't this a big loss?

And for this situation, Hipper's method is very simple, before the other party goes back, block the passage, anyway, the speed of his entire fleet is 30% to 50% faster than theirs! As long as the actions of the British can be perceived, then naturally it is very simple, the blockade fleet is not too much, 3 battle cruisers and 3 light cruisers plus a small number of destroyers are enough.
