Chapter 276: The Spy of South Asia (21)

The early warning planes that took off from the flagship aircraft carrier "Huo Quai" had already detected the routes and movements of the Japanese Navy's First Fleet.

With regard to such a petty move played by the Japanese Navy for the sake of so-called self-esteem, Wang Jingchun, after asking the Pentagon for instructions, immediately ordered the fleet to meet the Japanese Navy's First Fleet head-on.

Defense Minister Jiang Fangzhen repeated to Wang Jingchun the original words of His Majesty Emperor Jincheng:

"In the current international practice, only within 22 kilometers of land and islands are considered the baselines of the lawful territorial sea, and it is completely reasonable and lawful for you to pass through the sea area 200 kilometers east of Tokyo Bay. If the Japanese Navy dares to provoke you on this ground, if the warning is ineffective, you can choose to open fire at your own discretion! ”

Naturally, Wang Jingchun conveyed the words of His Majesty Emperor Jincheng to the captains of all ships and submarines in the fleet word for word.

Zhou Haisheng is now pondering whether to silently kill a few devils' submarines.

After becoming familiar with and mastering all the capabilities of the SSN-412 "Expeditionary 039" Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarine, Zhou Haisheng has always been convinced of the record that His Majesty Emperor Jincheng used submarine forces to kill nearly half of the capital ships of the Japanese Navy's combined fleet in the East China Sea two years ago.

The route chosen by the 3rd Amphibious Assault Squadron this time is basically to sail in the deep-sea area close to the continental shelf of the Japanese mainland, and it is the best battlefield for the Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines to display their combat effectiveness.

As the saying goes, only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated in a hundred battles.

For Zhou Haisheng, he was fully aware of the submarines of the Japanese Navy, while his opponents knew nothing about his situation.

As the first batch of attack nuclear submarines mass-built at the Aleutian base, the existence of the Seawolf-class is the last killer weapon reserved by Cheng Gong to prevent the world's major powers from uniting against him.

You must know that if all the naval powers in the world unite to besiege Paradise Island, as long as these countries are determined to fight a war of attrition with Cheng Gong, Cheng Gong will definitely lose.

Once this happens, these Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines will be Cheng Gong's weapons of revenge against all enemies. With these deep-sea wolf packs, he can turn all the sea routes of the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Arctic oceans upside down, and there will be no peace for a moment!

The XXI submarines that Cheng Gong exported may have the opportunity to wrestle with the Kilo-class conventional-powered submarines by virtue of their numerical superiority. But there is no comparison with the Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines at all.

For the navies of various countries in the world at present, submarines with faster speed and greater depth will definitely have an absolute advantage in deep-sea confrontation, and can put the opponent in a desperate situation where they are powerless to fight back. This is because the side that has the advantage in speed will always be able to bite the opponent, while the slower side will have a hard time getting the opportunity to attack, even if they use their strength.

I really don't know where the Japanese Navy submarine commander got the courage!

A disdainful sneer flashed at the corner of Zhou Haisheng's mouth.

Although the Kilo-class is similar to the XXI submarine in terms of depth, the underwater speed is not much different. However, the excellent silence performance of the Kilo-class, as well as its powerful detection system and long-range attack capabilities, are far from being comparable to the XXI submarines.

Zhou Haisheng knows very well that these three properties are also of great significance in ocean-going operations.

Because they can be the first to spot enemy ships without being discovered by them, they can seize the initiative, approach from a favorable direction, and then launch an attack by surprise.

In the case that the maximum speed advantage is not obvious, the Kilo class will never fight with the XXI type, but will hit with one blow and sink with one blow!

……

The 3rd Amphibious Assault Squadron of the Royal Navy of Donghua, the command room of the flagship "Huo Quai" aircraft carrier.

At this moment, all the on-the-job personnel in various positions are busy, but they are busy and orderly.

Commander Wang said, His Majesty Emperor Jincheng is watching the performance of the Global Hawk drones hovering at an altitude of 20,000 meters above the fleet in the Pentagon at this moment! No one dares to drop the chain at this time.

Although he could talk to Wang Chunchun directly, Cheng Gong still consciously did not casually interfere in the wartime command of the fleet commander. He even told Defense Minister Jiang Fangzhen and Navy Commander-in-Chief Chen Jiliang not to interfere with others.

Compared with the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, although the Royal Navy of Donghua has absolute superiority in ship equipment, there is still a slight gap in terms of naval quality and combat experience.

Centennial Navy, that's not just a joke!

No matter how advanced a ship is, it also needs excellent naval officers and sailors who can match it to operate. Compared with the Japanese Navy, which grew up in the blood and fire of the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, the Russo-Japanese Naval War, and the First World War, the current Donghua Royal Navy is still a rookie who has just developed.

It is precisely because he knows that there is such a gap that Cheng Gong will not hesitate to surpass the technical superiority of the new ships of the Donghua Royal Navy over the Japanese Navy for a whole generation!

So far, the rather bluffing-looking Royal Navy of Donghua has nothing to boast about.

In the recently concluded East Australian War, it was the Royal Air Force of Donghua that destroyed the British Royal Navy's fleet to aid Australia, and it was the German-Japanese-East Combined Naval Fleet that threatened the Royal Australian Navy, including all the officers and men of the Japanese Navy's Combined Fleet.

If it weren't for the glorious record of single-handedly defeating half of the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy two years ago, the navies of all countries would never have thought so highly of the Royal Navy of Donghua.

It is estimated that only Cheng Gong knows that the current Donghua Royal Navy is actually a foreign powerhouse and a middle-class worker!

If it weren't for the F-4 converted carrier-based supersonic fighter that took off from the "Huo Quai" to help in the air, it would have been a bit of a hang to try to frighten the Japanese Navy by relying entirely on this large fleet that does not have a single "thick tube" naval gun.

Of course, the rookie position of the Donghua Royal Navy is no matter what a dish, with the RGM-84 "Harpoon" anti-ship missile, Standard 2 medium-range anti-aircraft missile, and Standard 3 long-range air defense missile configured with Shield-class cruisers, Warrior-class destroyers and Defender-class frigates, it can still beat the First Fleet of the Japanese Navy to the point of crying and crying!

Because this is completely bullying people with technical equipment advantages! It is a typical asymmetrical blow!

The Type 99 carrier-based aircraft of the Devil Navy are dealt with by F-4 jet supersonic fighters, and even if a few fish slip through the net, they will be 100% defeated by Javelin anti-aircraft missiles.

The battleships, heavy cruisers, light cruisers, and destroyers of the Devil Navy can't match the ships of the Royal Donghua Navy at all, and they can't even look at them, how can they fight?

The submarine of the Devil Navy is still dead in vain against the Kiloji and Seawolf classes! Even if a few of them desperately rushed past the interception of the Donghua Royal Navy submarines, the carrier-based anti-submarine helicopters could still kill them as if they were targets.

The 3rd Amphibious Assault Squadron of the Royal Donghua Navy was originally able to stay away from Japanese waters when it sailed for the South China Sea. However, Cheng Gong deliberately designated this aircraft carrier for Wang Jingchun. The purpose is to see if the Royal Navy of Donghua has the courage, arrogance and backbone in the face of the feud of the Japanese Navy!
