The Rise of the Empire

"Actually, this result is unexpected, but it is reasonable, because both we and you, wondering about the Germans, want this Italian battleship to appear in your fleet's combat sequence this morning, so , It is normal that it can be completed so quickly." Shimura Hayao said with a smile.

The Japanese need this battleship, and naturally want it to be completed quickly! The Germans need Italy to use actual actions to show that they have made a clean break with the Americans, so they also hope that the Italian battleship will be completed soon. What about the British? I also hope that Italy will be the first to sell the completed battleship to the Japanese Navy during the war. Only in this way, when the British Fury-class battleship is completed, the Americans will not take too severe revenge against the British. After all, the first round of anger The Italians have already taken it! By the way, there is one more point. Italians also hope to deliver quickly, and then let the Japanese pay as soon as possible!

So under the multi-party operation, how can the construction speed of the battleship Caraggiono be slow? Many people from British shipyards joined the construction and outfitting of this warship. The turrets and artillery shipped from the British mainland greatly accelerated the outfitting speed of this warship. Eventually, after the completion of the warship, sea trials were carried out directly on the way to the Far East. Hurry up and finally caught up with this great warship. Scale action!

So, after some hard work, the number of capital ships that the Japanese fleet can use has become 5 aircraft carriers and 7 battleships! The number of battleships finally made up a dozen! As for the number of destroyers and submarines, the number of destroyers and submarines has not changed much. What was the plan at the beginning, and how many are still there. In terms of high-speed supply ships, Japan has added two more ships with a gross tonnage of 25,000 tons, one of which is from France and the other. Ship from Italy!

So far, everything is ready, but Dongfeng owes it! The Japanese combined fleet that is ready to go can set off from Davao Bay at any time, and the operation codenamed Kuroshio is about to begin!

"Did our decoy fleet go out?" Betty asked.

"We have gone out. This time we sent a total of 2 decoy fleets. One of them is the armored cruiser Pisa and the armored cruiser San Giorgio that we bought from Italy, and the other is the Asagiri Quasi-Fearless and One A camouflaged cruiser. They have already gone to the intended sea area and will attract the attention of the Americans to the area north of the Bismarck Islands." said Yasuo Shimura.

Although the senior level of the Japanese fleet has accepted Yamamoto’s proposal and passed through the sea passage between New Guinea and Australia, in order to be more secure, the Japanese fleet decided to send some sub-capital ships into the waters controlled by the United States. Engaging in combat, do not expect them to get many results, or even expect them to come back alive, as long as they can attract the attention of the U.S. Navy and keep them firmly in the north of the Bismarck Islands. Very safe.

When the two were communicating, Lieutenant General Stetti came in suddenly, and then handed a piece of information to Betty, and Betty looked at it and handed it to Hayao Shimamura.

"It seems that our action may have to be advanced." Betty said.

"Is it really sure to advance? This information is very vague. It just says that Shadow 42 may depart in a week, and even the specific route is a guess. Is it a bit sloppy to change our previous deployment for this vague information? "Although Hayao Shimamura said so, he was still a little entangled in his heart, constantly swaying between the advance attack and the plan.

The so-called shadow is the abbreviation for the American high-speed sea troop carriers in the Japanese Navy. These troop carriers modified by high-speed cruise ships can transport 7,000 to 10,000 people at a time. Almost all of them run solo and are protected by a very small number of **** warships. Next, they cross the ocean at a speed of more than 20 knots per hour, and they can even reach a high speed of more than 25 knots when necessary! In this case, neither the submarine nor the camouflaged cruiser can be hunted. Of course, if the hunt is successful, then the natural benefits are very large, almost equal to the Japanese army's record of more than a month... It's impossible to say that you don't move!

"We always have to try. If we miss this opportunity, when we start in the Pacific, we will never have the opportunity to seize the shadow of the executive transportation personnel, because the Americans will have problems in the large transportation fleet. At the first time, all shadow transport ships were required to dock and unload the personnel.” Betty said.

"Yes, the large transport fleet is slow to respond and the speed is slow, but the shadows move quickly, and even if we run a marathon at sea, we may not be able to catch up with others. But the probability is obviously a bit low." Suxiong pointed to the file in his hand and said.

"Combining this information, I have at least a 50% probability of catching it!" Betty thought about it and said.

"50% probability? Are you kidding? There are at least 5 routes that Shadow 42 can choose. Even if we know the exact time of his trip, we only have a one-fifth probability. What's more, now we even have shadow 42 out of time. Can't be sure." Shimura Hayao said.

"Everything is connected~www.readwn.com~ First of all, we can determine the approximate time of its sailing through its maintenance schedule. We are not sure which unit is installed on the ship, but it does not matter. We can change the angle. Considering the question, where will this force go? How can this information be obtained? Naturally, it can be drawn from the port’s fuel ration table. Shadow 42 needs a lot of fuel. Obviously, it will not go to Pearl Harbor. Is to go to the Bismarck Islands or New Guinea!" Betty said.

"Combined with this information, we can already determine the opponent's approximate departure time, and then the opponent's arrival time. This problem is somewhat difficult, but it is not impossible to solve. First of all, the shadow 42 is carrying a front-line combat unit close to a division. These people passed by. I must get weapons and prepare to go into battle. I don’t know if you have studied the intelligence of the army. Anyway, I have read some. I found a very interesting thing, that is, before and after the battle, the shadow Activities are the most frequent." Betty said with a smile.

"Hi..." Shimura Hayao couldn't help taking a breath. This time he really felt Betty's terrible! This guy is too careful and looks at the problem too comprehensively! He even linked the pattern of shadow activities with the actions of the US Army! After many considerations, this connection may really point to the truth of the matter!
