The reaction of Andre and the others had already been expected by Yang Yuanzhao, and they were afraid that their first thought was that it was impossible, but now, with the departure of the British fleet, in this specific environment, such an explosive news was relatively easy for them to accept.

Fabian was a designer, and he didn't know much about this, so he turned to look at Andrei and asked with some hesitation: "Captain Andrei, you should be able to deal with these pirates, right?" ”

"This!" Andrei hesitated for a moment, and then, his face changed, and he suddenly thought, why did the British fleet leave suddenly, when he was in Colombo Port before, some basic summons received by cable telegraph, at present, the whole world is calm, there is no urgent matter or confrontation, especially in Southeast Asia, it is very calm, and there is not even some commotion, there is no reason to leave.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, the British manipulated it single-handedly, at least they knew about it, so they left, under the premise that Britain controlled the entire world ocean, the pirates were in a panic, in the intention reached, all countries in the world, have the obligation to encircle and suppress the pirates, on the side of Southeast Asia, the British power is weak, but Malacca is the focus, just like there are pirates in the Strait of Gibraltar, where the British control the entire world, there is still this kind of thing, then there is only one result, These are driven by the British.

Andre's first thought was his own safety, which one is stronger to read novels on his mobile phone? Mobile phone reading network, and then there are designers such as Fabian, these people can be said to be the treasure of Germany, and any loss will cause Germany to suffer a heavy blow. He didn't know anything about fantasy yet, but after he knew. I would definitely think more so.

Andre didn't answer Yang Yuanzhao's question, and instead looked at Fabian. He said: "Your Excellency Fabian, I'm afraid you can't stay here anymore, you have to follow us back to the destroyer's upper area."

Fabian was stunned for a moment, making him leave more or less unacceptable, from the time he got on the ship, for almost a month, he stayed on this cruise ship, on this cruise ship of only 15,000 tons. Fabian and the other three worked with Yang Yuanzhao to improve the drawings of this fantasy class, especially gradually going deeper, and understanding the construction technology of the fantasy class and the industrial development of the northwest little by little, he realized that the possibility of this fantasy class being built is very large, as long as he arrives in China and sees the workers showing the new processing technology of the ship, he can be sure. Whether it's true or not, and those materials.

Now he is in the process of going smoothly, but he tells him that he must leave here. There is a bit of a psychological imbalance. Fabian came from the Admiralty, and he knew very well how much the Navy valued designers like them. He must stay in a safe place when danger may arise. Even if he wanted to stay here, André would have resorted to coercive measures.

Fabian looked at Yang Yuanzhao slightly apologetically. Yang Yuanzhao nodded at him and said calmly: "It's okay, I have done everything I can, and the fleet will be safe, but I need to trouble His Excellency Andre for one thing." ”

Andrei nodded and said, "What to see!" ”

"Of the German destroyers, 2 were in the front and two were in the last."

Andre looked at Yang Yuanzhao strangely, this question is too strange, at such a critical juncture, didn't he let him make a move, why did he ask this question, he wanted to see something from Yang Yuanzhao's face, but he didn't find anything, so he had to nod and said, "That's right." ”

"Next, I will order them to come over, and when the time comes, your six warships will be gathered together, then ask Mr. Andrei to help and take care of the fleet, of course I am not asking Mr. Andrei to go all out, I also have some protection where, just when necessary, Mr. Andrei will help!"

Andrei thought for a while, this is just a matter of effort, and it is not difficult, nodded, and agreed, he knows very well that destroyers are flexible and changeable, and in the battleship-level duel, it only plays a harassing role, but in the offensive and defensive war with pirates as the main body, it can indeed be said that he is in control of his own destiny, he can fight if he wants, he can leave if he wants, and he can stay if he wants to, unless he loses his speed and is surrounded by a large number of pirates, which is almost impossible for Andrei, once the situation is unfavorable, He would immediately leave the group and leave alone, 5 ships gathered together, and pirates without military ships would not be able to resist it in any case.

The fleet anchored, after most of the British destroyers left, the staff officers revised the plan, not using the previous method of separating the five fleets, the separation can reduce losses, but can not avoid losses, the pirates concentrated all their strength, or can break any detachment, there are 1200 people and a large number of machine guns as the backing, the fleet has a certain confidence, the initial fleet did not go immediately, is to stop where, waiting for the follow-up fleet to come, formed a larger group.

At this time, a British major who stayed behind came to ask the reason, and Yang Yuanzhao casually prevaricated, there were fewer fleets to guard, so it was necessary to concentrate the fleet to prevent pirates from raiding. In recent times, there have indeed been a lot of pirates, and most of the British Navy that remained was not the core of the detachment, knowing that there was danger, and still involved, this was not done by a wise man, the major had no doubts, and now the defense force is less, and the fleet is concentrated, which is also convenient for protection.

Yang Yuanzhao did not expect that the British warships did not suspect, which avoided a head-on conflict between each other, although the British army had a ghost, but after all, there was Germany, and the two sides were similar in destroyers, the most important thing is that the German destroyers should be a little more cutting-edge, and they were all within two or three years before they entered the active service of the cutting-edge warships, 5 to 6, and did not fall behind.

The huge fleet took 2 hours to concentrate together, the British destroyers in the south, and the German ones in the north a little behind, showing a diagonal to each other, the ship group was densely gathered together, the big ships and cargo ships were on the periphery, Yang Yuanzhao further strengthened the personnel and armament on the periphery, and strived to be foolproof, in addition to the outer layer of the heaviest deployment of troops, in the interior of the ship regiment, three lines of defense were also simply arranged.

These three lines of defense are the most powerful on the periphery, with a total of more than 1,400 groups of twin machine guns, 700 soldiers from 1,200 reconnaissance battalions, and more than 500 armed forces pieced together, which are jointly arranged here, and this is the strongest defense line.

The second line of defense, mainly heavy artillery, these heavy guns are placed on large cargo ships, protected by special shelves, to prevent the recoil of artillery fire, destroying the structure of the ship, naval artillery is king, even if it is only 108 guns, but the total number is a total of 36, more than 200 gunners specially manipulate this, of which 120 people are from the reconnaissance battalion, and the rest are military personnel and paramilitary personnel brought back in Germany.

The third wave, of course, is the core protection, this is already inside the ship group, once the pirates break through here, this is already the last line of defense, when the time comes, whether to leave with the help of high-speed ships, or resist on the spot, it depends on the actual situation, flexible handling.

The departure of the British warships in the morning, coupled with the adjustment of the ship group, did not travel much distance, about 11 o'clock, the fleet accelerated, almost at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the ship group finally arrived at the entrance of Malacca, the Andaman Sea is gradually narrowing here, the land on both sides of the strait, almost faintly visible, in this era, Southeast Asia is still an undeveloped land, except for a few places of ports and cities, the rest are large areas of forest, this is an undeveloped virgin land.

Yang Yuanzhao knows very well how rich this land is, Southeast Asia is also one of the few oil production concentrations, in addition to Indonesia and Malaysia on the land, the South China Sea continent plus, also contains a huge amount of oil, copper, iron, tin lead and other metals, in Southeast Asia also has a certain storage, compared to the barren deposits in Chinese mainland, here can be called rich minerals. As long as this time it can smoothly digest the gains of Western Europe, further consolidate the industrial base of the northwest, and become the production capacity of all categories and types of weapons, the northwest will inevitably make some moves here.

At noon, Yang Yuanzhao was eating, and when the news came, the telegraph operator received a telegram from Xiao Jianfeng. At this time, the telegraph room was extremely busy, and Xiao Jianfeng's contact was connected, which made the telegraph staff extremely excited, and continued to contact him, trying to find out where it was.

The first telegram has just been thoroughly translated by a senior telegraph operator. It turned out that from yesterday to today, Xiao Jianfeng with the help of the relationship of the Black Mountain Pirate Group, most of the things have been clarified, a letter that concentrates most of the information of the Pirate Group, the current location, the kind of method that may be used in the future, all sent to Tong Guò telegram, since the morning, he has been sending reports uninterruptedly, perhaps because of the barrier between the waves and the land, he has not received it, no, it happened to bypass the peninsula and arrive at the mouth of the Strait of Malacca on this side of the Andaman Sea. The radio waves successfully crossed the distance of more than 180 kilometers between them, and successfully connected with the ship.

Tong guò Zhang Haoran, Yang Yuanzhao already knows, what a huge pirate group he is facing, and now he has obtained first-hand information, and it is the most critical, it has reached the most critical moment, the other party is eyeing them, almost holding the knife on their necks, the more things he knows, the more he can help the staff officers judge the opponent's movements and strength, which is conducive to reducing losses, he has always cared about this.
