Chapter 755: Confluence on the Atlantic

The British failed to stop the Suxiong fleet in the North Sea, which made Churchill and others regret, although they were a little unwilling, but at most they were unhappy, and in their current opinion, it could not affect the overall situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info And after entering the Atlantic, the British even broke off their thoughts and looked for two super-dreadnoughts in the Atlantic? This is okay in peacetime, but in wartime, not only can you find the other party, but also detain the other party's words? Then let's wash and sleep, at least without some preparation, the British think that they are not capable of this.

Then Su Xiong and the others decisively realized what it means to leap in the sea and the sky, and let the birds in the sky be high! The two German fast battleships soon joined up with the two auxiliary cruisers, the Seahawk and the Seagull, which had come out in advance, 300 nautical miles west of the Azores, and made their first replenishment here, and then the four battleships picked a less shipless course and quickly sailed south. It also joined up with three auxiliary cruisers, the Sturgeon, the Swordfish, and the Nautilus, provided by the Americans, near Ascension Island.

"Welcome friends from afar!" Suchon's flagship, the Scharnhorst, raised a series of signal flags to convey the Suchon fleet's welcome to its comrades.

"May our actions be victorious." The Nautilus, which was at the front, also responded.

Subsequently, after the rendezvous, another supply ship that arrived here with three auxiliary cruisers began to deliver supplies to the German fleet. The captain of the Nautilus, Major Caron, boarded Su Xiong's flagship, and the two sides had to plan for the upcoming operation.

"According to the order of the Admiralty, we should enter the area near the Arabian Sea by April 10 and then be on standby, we may catch a wave of big fish this time, it is very large, and it is even possible to hold us up, there is no problem with the Scharnhorst and the Gneisenau, and there is no warship in the whole of Asia that can compete with these two warships, do you have a problem?" Su Xiong said seriously.

"The British will hand over the warships of more than 5,000 tons to you to deal with, and the Nautilus of less than 5,000 tons can deal with one, but I am afraid it will be difficult to say if there are two." Cuarón thought for a moment and said.

"The Nautilus can deal with a 5000-ton battleship? That's a light cruiser class, the British 5000-ton cruiser has a 3-inch class armor belt, and about 7 6 village guns can be concentrated on the side side! Cuarón's answer surprised Su Xiong a little.

"Absolutely? Don't forget, the Nautilus is an 8,000-ton ship, and I can tell you responsibly that in addition to its low speed, this ship's firepower and defense are very good, and it can be as deadly as a chicken snail for warships under 5,000 tons! Cuarón's words were overflowing with satisfaction with the boat. (If you are interested, you can check it out.) )

"This ship was originally a reserve ship for the Imperial Navy's assault ships, and when it was built, 3 to 4 inch armor belts were arranged at the waterline, and the power compartment and ammunition compartment were protected by additional dome armor. The defense did not fall short compared to the best light cruisers of the British. And in terms of firepower, the ship left enough space and weight, and during this time in the United States, we installed not only 6 6-inch guns and 8 5-inch guns, but also 2 8-inch guns. Such firepower is already stronger than almost all light cruisers, and with a maximum speed of 20 knots, this is a battleship! ”

"That's great, at least it's okay to deal with the British's auxiliary cruisers, and if there are large British battleships, leave it to us." Su Xiong said with satisfaction.

"So what exactly do we need to deal with?" Cuarón asked, curiously.

"I don't know, exactly, maybe the German naval headquarters doesn't know, what we need to do now is to hide ourselves, and then when we get to the Indian Ocean, we will receive information from a codenamed Whisperer in the predetermined sea area, and they will provide us with information and convey naval orders." Su Xiong said.

"Alright then, let's disappear from public view now!" With this replenishment and convergence, the entire German fleet once again disappeared into the vast Atlantic.

If 7 ships are piled up together and sailing on the sea, then even if the remote sea area is discovered, it will be noticed, God knows if the merchant ships of various countries running around on the ocean now will poke out the news! After all, this is too eye-catching, 2 super battleships that ordinary people may not see in their lifetime, plus 5 fat and strong followers in the back, everyone will have an idea, right?

What the? Some people asked, since the fleet had already reached the Atlantic, why not start breaking diplomatic relations? Hehe? Now what is the matter of hitting a few merchant ships with a 30,000-ton warship? Compared with the upcoming project, the occasional British merchant ship is completely the relationship between sesame seeds and watermelons. The so-called small unbearable chaos is what the big plot says, what can you do if you can't refuse the temptation sent to the door?

Raeder decisively dismantled the fleet, the two capital ships acted together, and camouflaged in appearance, making them look more like the British battle cruisers Tiger and Lion (the middle turret of the Lion in the plane was moved to the back like the Tiger) and then the 5 camouflaged assault ships dispersed, forming a circular cordon 60 kilometers in front of the two capital ships.

Although these 5 ships look a little big, they are all camouflaged assault ships, even the Nautilus, the two 8-inch guns at the bow and tail of the hull are hidden, at least from the outside, there is no doorway. And also flying the flag of a neutral country, and more importantly, on the high seas, even if the British battleship encounters it, it will not have any idea, of course, these camouflaged attack ships will also not attack any Allied ships, and they will not eat when they are delivered, their task is to provide intelligence to the capital ships behind in order to avoid the merchant ships they encounter.

The two sides used the telegram encrypted by the Ennig cipher machine to communicate with each other, and there was absolutely no possibility of leaking information. And with this cordon, the two capital ships almost completely avoided the possibility of accidental detection. What the? What if a boat followed from behind, you say?

Please, now the speed of the battleship is more than 16 knots, not to mention the environment of the 1st war, the ordinary transport ship of the 2nd war can reach more than 12 knots is a fast merchant ship, and the ordinary civilian ship runs so fast without considering the economy? As for the fast cruises of the Entente, you say? It's no problem to catch up, but the problem is that now these high-value ships have become strategic materials, and they are either on standby in the port or running on regular routes, which basically can't be touched!
