Chapter 752: Ocean Jiaolong 1

"Tirpitz and they finally chose to implement Plan B, yes, it's still a bit bold. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Ruprecht nodded slightly, appreciating the Admiralty's approach. Like the submarine sortie plan, Plan B was also carried out before the war, and when the prince led the Bavarian Army to launch an offensive on the Eastern Front, the navy was also making a bold plan.

"General Su Xiong, it's a pleasure to see you." When Raeder walked into the living room of Admiral Ball's office again, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

"Colonel Raeder? Is it really you? I didn't expect to meet on this occasion. Su Xiong was stunned for a moment, then got up and stepped forward. It looks like we're going to be working together for a while in the future. You are welcome and may we have a happy cooperation. ”

Raeder was Hipper's chief of staff, and Suxiong turned out to be the captain of the battlecruiser Moltke, and the two knew each other from the beginning. The two of them received an urgent order from the Admiralty at the same time, and meeting on such occasions could only mean one thing, they were going on a mission together.

"You are very familiar, very good, it seems that Marshal Tirpitz's advice is right, and letting you go is the best option." At this time, Admiral Bol walked into the living room and looked at the two of them and nodded with satisfaction.

"Alright, let's arrange the mission now. This plan is very dangerous, but at the same time very valuable, and I hope that the two of you can work together to do this well, and if this plan succeeds, then it will be like a crowbar and a fulcrum, and the whole strategic situation can be changed. ”

"Both know that we have built two ultra-dreadnoughts for the Argentine Navy, the Argentine and the Buenos Aires. And now these two battleships have just been completed, but the war is about to begin, and there are many people in the Admiralty who have suggested that the Empire should keep these two ships. After all, these two battleships are built on the basis of the Helgoran-class fast battleships, and their performance is good, and they can fully fit the fleet system of the High Seas Fleet. ”

"And to this, the top of the Navy did not respond, but now, I want to tell you about the results of these two fast battleships! The Reich has decided to buy these two battleships. And the two will command these two ships in the future! ”

"And in the future, your combat sea will not be in the North Sea, nor in the Baltic Sea, but here!" Admiral Bohr stood up and picked up a pencil and scribbled across the map, a huge ellipse encompassing the entire Arabian Sea, the northern Indian Ocean, and the Gulf of Aden. "Give them a stab in the throat of the British Empire!"

"Sss Su Xiong gasped. This plan is really a bit beyond his imagination, not to mention anything else, now that the war is about to break out, how can he get out? Although war has not yet been declared, the fleet can still enter and exit the North Sea, the British will not do it, but at least they will send a fleet to follow, once the war starts, they can go out with two battleships, and the other party will dare to follow with 4 battle cruisers plus a group ......of armored cruisers. No way, the superiority of the British at sea is simply too great!

The performance of the Helgolan-class battleship is indeed good, but the performance is good, and Su Xiong and the others do not guarantee that they can withstand it in the case of 2 to 3 or 2 to 4 plus a group of soy sauce brothers on the opposite side, and even a slight injury in ocean combat may lead to unpredictable consequences. If you are seriously injured, it will be almost like death.

Even leaving aside the issue of belligerents, getting from the North Sea to the Indian Ocean is a problem in itself. Look at the history of the Russian fleet to go through a bumpy road, that is still the opponent is not capable of killing you halfway, and now, Su Xiong has to lead himself with two warships to first break through the blockade line in the North Sea, then avoid the British fleets around the world, and finally kill to the Indian Ocean.

"You don't have to worry about the port problem, the port of Fawu can completely solve the basic maintenance problem of the two warships. As for the passage through the North Sea, theoretically it will not be a big problem, because on the bright side, these two battleships were delivered to the Argentines, and the British are unlikely to do anything to the Argentines in this situation! Admiral Pol said.

"This is impossible, the Argentine side has already sent people to pick up the ship, as long as they board the battleship, they will not return it to us, unless we arrange 2 companies of marines on each battleship to pick up those people." Su Xiong felt that this plan was quite chatty.

"No, there won't be Argentines up there, I promise. Diplomacy is up to someone else, and all you need now is to quickly board these two ships with your original crew. Then prepare to go to sea to fight. By the way, by the way, although you can't arrange a frigate, you are not alone in the battle. Admiral Pol said.

If these two warships want to go to the Indian Ocean, it is absolutely impossible to go to the Mediterranean Sea, the Suez Canal and then the Red Sea, don't even think about it, in doing so, the British can also find out the cats with their knees, so the course of the fleet can only be to run across the entire Atlantic, then bypass South Africa, and then cross half of the Indian Ocean .......

At such a distance, even if no one beats you, you should wash and sleep if you want to walk down. There's no way, the endurance is not so great, the reason why the German sea cruise battle in World War 2 can be fought is because there are camouflage supply ships to provide supplies, as well as materials that are directly robbed. In World War I, Count Spee's fleet also relied on the storage of materials at the beginning of the war, and the cruisers of the Far Eastern Fleet were followed by a coal ship. As for the White Swan Emden, there is really no supply ship to accompany it, but can the consumption of a cruiser of several thousand tons be compared to that of two battleships of almost 30,000 tons? Obviously not.

Therefore, in order to ensure that these two battleships can go to the open sea safely, the necessary supply ships are still needed, of course, at this time, the German Navy has not yet had the luxury to provide these two warships with a speed of more than 25 knots, and can race with fast battleships, and there are about 30 merchant ships that must run fast through Germany.

And these ships are still ships with heads and faces, and they will be recognized as soon as they go out, and the so-called tree is what it means, so the German Navy equipped these two warships with two modified merchant ships with a very ordinary appearance, a displacement of 9,000 tons, but a maximum speed of 17 knots, no, it may not be accurate to say that merchant ships, these two ships have been converted into camouflage cruisers, each battleship has a certain amount of armament, and they bring 400 to 500 mines respectively. Some defense has also been added to key areas. Of course, more important was that each auxiliary cruiser could supply two battleships with 3000 tons of coal and fuel oil.
