9oo1o[o]64o1 Chapter 47 Battle of Solomon

At noon, the Emperor Qin Navy's Pacific Fleet left the battlefield and headed towards Nanrenxian and the sea area east of Gilivia Island. At the same time, the restaurants of each ship made fires to make meals, and soon all the officers and soldiers of the fleet started lunch.

On the contrary, when the Russian Far East Fleet saw the Emperor Qin Navy leave the battlefield, they retreated without fighting, and their morale recovered slightly. General Rorithestvinsky ordered the Russian fleet to follow the Emperor Qin Navy, but in order to maintain the formation, they ordered each ship to keep the sailing unchanged and each ship must not break away from the town.

General Rorithestvinsky didn't know that the Pacific Fleet of the Emperor Qin Navy had already had lunch leisurely. In his opinion, noon was the time to eat. Based on the plan of Emperor Qin Navy, they would definitely come to attack while the Russian fleet officers and soldiers were lunch. Therefore, General Rorithestvinsky ordered the fleet officers and soldiers to increase their vigilance and guard against the sneak attack of the Emperor Qin Navy.

So, the officers and soldiers of the Russian fleet had to chase behind them on hunger, and both sides kept a distance of 8 kilometers, chasing each other.

On the bridge of the Russian fleet flagship Alexander III, General Rozedes Twinsky observed the Chinese fleet eight kilometers ahead.

"What do you think? Why don't they fight us?"

Lieutenant General Pinkovsky sighed: "Obviously, the Chinese know that our fleet's supplies are gone and they are just competing with us for consumption!"

"Value?" General Rorithestvinsky nodded and said, "That's right! They can afford it, but we can't!"

Then he asked, "Do you have any good solutions?"

General Rozedestvinsky looked at the cloudy sky, listened to the whistling sea breeze, and waited for Lieutenant General Pinkovsky to give him any surprises.

"We cannot be led by the Chinese Navy!"

After a long time, Lieutenant General Pinkovsky suddenly said: "They are now fearless and faster than our fleet. I can't catch up with you! Once our formation is dispersed, they will definitely turn around and bite us!"

In this era, battleships are always overlords in the sea. In the final competition, only the battleships of both sides are the protagonists. The number of battleships in the Russian Far East Fleet is more than that of the Imperial Qin Navy's Pacific Fleet. This numerical advantage cannot be easily broken.

In front of the twenty battleships of the Russian Navy, the heavy cruiser of the Imperial Qin Navy did not dare to move forward at all. Therefore, as long as the Russian fleet still clung together, the Imperial Qin Navy had no choice.

Lieutenant General Pingkovsky continued: "Now we have no supplies. We must find a new supply point before our butterfly burning and freshwater food is consumed, or defeat the Chinese Navy. I see that the Chinese Navy at this moment also sees our weaknesses and is taking us around in circles and consuming us?"

General Rorithestvinsky sighed: "I also know that these situations are very unfavorable to us! But where do you look for supplies? Will the Chinese Navy ask us to find supplies? No! They will always follow us so that we can't make any moves."

"Then we must also throw them away as soon as possible!" Lieutenant General Pinkovsky said: "If we don't throw them away, we will not be able to get through tonight!"

"Tonight?" General Rozedestvinsky frowned and suddenly thought of the scene when the Chinese naval destroyer attacked the Russian fleet at night.

At that time, China had only a destroyer fleet of ten destroyers, so it dared to attack the Russian fleet in the dark. Although it failed, the situation is different now.

With the support of China's main Pacific fleet, China can use dozens of destroyers to launch night attacks. At that time, the Russian fleet will be exhausted and must not only deal with the main Pacific fleet, but also prevent the attacks of the destroyer fleet. The consequences will be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, General Rozedestvinsky asked: "You mean, the Chinese Navy will attack us tonight?"

Lieutenant General Pinkovsky nodded and said, "Of course, they were frightened by the number and firepower advantages of our battleships during the day and did not dare to approach us. However, once we reached night, we had no advantage!"

"Then what do you think should be done?" General Rorithestvinsky was really panicked when he heard this and didn't know what to do.

Lieutenant General Pinkovsky replied: "Turn the Chinese Navy to fight us!"

General Rorithestvinsky said unhappily: "Don't always hide it, just say anything if you have any suggestions!"

Lieutenant General Pinkovsky sighed in his heart, "Pan was a good opportunity before, but you still didn't listen when you said it."

Even though he complained in his heart, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face and said, "The Chinese Navy attacked our supply fleet, so we have to attack their supply fleet with eyes for eyes and teeth for teeth."

General Rozedestvinsky asked in surprise: "How to attack? We don't even know where their supply fleet is mooring?"

Lieutenant General Pinkovsky said: "The supply ship is slow, so there is no need to worry about them running away! As for where they are, I think the Chinese Navy enters the Solomon Sea from the east, and their supply fleet must not leave the fleet's protection range, we just need to sail to the northeast. General Rozedestvinsky nodded and turned around and ordered: "The whole fleet turns to guide the

The order was issued, and the Russian Far East Fleet stopped pursuing the Emperor Qin Navy and turned northeast.

In the Pangu Commander Tower, Fleet Commander General Lin Jianzhang and Fleet Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Xu Zhiwang sat on both sides of the table. Xu Zhiwang was drinking tea, while Lin Jianzhang kept picking his teeth with toothpicks, and from time to time there were also burping with satisfaction.

Xu Zhiwang put down the teacup and said: {,~The most slashing chapter, please go to the foot couplet to watch the muscle machine.

Fan. This is not the first time you have eaten imperial food in the palace! Do you need to eat it in other ways? Fei Sen is afraid!"

Xu Zhiwang was still thinking about the scene where Net and Lin Jianzhang ran to Zhang Yunfei for free. Lin Jianzhang seemed to have never eaten such delicious food before, and was so scary to eat.

"Of course you have to eat more when you are delicious!" Lin Jianzhang continued to snatch his teeth.

"Come on!" Xu Zhigang said: "It's better than usual when we eat on the warships, but it's far less than the taste of the palace!"

Xu Zhiwang has also eaten the imperial banquet in the palace, so of course he is clear about the differences. The food on the warship is not rich, and there are no good seasonings. Even the imperial chef can only make better at the heat.

Lin Jianzhang smiled and said, "You guy, you have to ask the truth! Forget it, let me tell you! My eating look was deliberately made for the emperor to see, so that the emperor thought we were sure of victory, so that the emperor could rest assured, that's all!"

Only then did Xu Zhiwang realize that Lin Jianzhang had made such a purpose.

"I didn't see it! You're really scheming! You won't let go of any details! Have you known I would have cooperated with you?"

Lin Jianzhang smiled proudly and said, "So, I can be the commander of the general, and you can only be the chief of staff for me!"

Xu Zhiwang glared at Lin Jianzhang and said disdainfully: "Behavior". {,~ But he knew that Lin Jianzhang was just joking when he deliberately attacked him. He was not angry, and then asked, "How come I listened to what you mean, it seems that I don't have much confidence."

Lin Jianzhang said: "The Russian fleet has no supplies, so it is a matter of time before it can be eliminated! His Majesty also said just now. He hopes to eliminate the Russian fleet as soon as possible and end this war."

Xu Zhiwang said: "After eliminating the Russian fleet, we can help the 6th Army from North Korea and even implement the 6th landing in the Russian Far East. That is the time for us to fight back in full swing!"

"That's right!" Lin Jianzhang said: "That's what Your Majesty means! So we need to find a way!"

Xu Zhiwang frowned and said, "But, the twenty battleships of the Russian fleet gathered together and were arranged in a square formation. The Tianmen's heavy artillery can be concentrated in both left and right directions, and fifteen second-class battleships supported us from the side. If we attacked vigorously, even if we succeeded, we would kill one thousand enemies and hurt ourselves by 800!"

Lin Jianzhang nodded. He also knew that this kind of strait was the result of strong attack.

"The direct impact must be too much casualties. If we had known that the Russian fleet had been so severe that the damage was not enough to be occupied, we should have transferred the airships to bomb them when we made a sanction!"

Xu Zhi.com nodded, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Have you forgotten the telegram from Huang Ming of the Ninth Destroyer Fleet to ask for Major General? They knew that using reconnaissance aircraft to carry torpedo warheads to bomb the Russian fleet. As a result, the Russian fleet immediately changed the flat-fired machine gun to anti-aircraft guns and shot down one of our reconnaissance aircraft. It seems that if you transfer the slow airship, aren't you still a target for others to use?"

Then he said thoughtfully: "The damage to the attack on the sea surface is too great, and the attack in the air is not good. Then, we might as well attack from the sea surface!"

"Under the sea?" Lin Jianzhang suddenly asked, "Are you talking about letting the submarine attack?"

"That's right!" Xu Zhigang nodded and said, "Since the air and the sea are not ideal, then it's OK under the sea! We send submarines to attack the warships in the center of the Russian fleet. Once one or two of them are successfully sunk, the formation of the Russian fleet will be in a state of chaos. At that time, we can rely on our degree advantage to carry out the decisive battle of the main ship!"

Lin Jianzhang sighed: "Do you know? Although our submarines can attack enemy ships underwater, their diving time can only last for one or two hours. Moreover, the effective attack distance of submarine torpedoes is only 2 meters. The Russian main fleet has thirty-five ships with an array area of ​​nearly 30 kilometers. With the outer cruise second-class battleship formation, our submarine underwater motors cannot support the navigation to the central position at all. Also, once the attack is launched, the battleship has a low eyelid and is surrounded by the layers of enemy ships, there is almost no possibility of survival!"

Xu Zhiwang shook his head helplessly. He also knew the current situation of the submarine. If the performance was reliable, he would not be left behind in the supply fleet.

At this time, the correspondent hurriedly reported: "Report to the commander, the Russian fleet suddenly turned!"

Lin Jianzhang hurriedly got up and asked, "Where is turning?"

"I haven't stopped yet. But the preliminary judgment should be to turn northeast!"

To the east of the Solomon Sea is the Solomon Islands. Since the Russian fleet has changed its boats, it is not only small in the southeast to enter the South Pacific, but also in the northeast to enter the Central Pacific.

Lin Jianzhang and Xu Zhiwang came outside, took the telescopes respectively, and looked towards the Russian fleet.

As the correspondent reported, the Russian fleet was circling at a high angle and should have turned northeast.

"It seems that the Russian fleet knows that they can't catch up with us, and they feel unhappy when we are led by our nose, so they turn around and want to run to their hometown."

Lin Jianzhang put down his telescope and said, "Did they run? Without supplies, they could not reach the Far East at all."

Xu Zhiwang said: "Then what are they doing? Are they preparing to attack Guam? We have already deployed the port of Little Apula, and they were looking for death in the past."

"Not good!" Lin Jianzhang suddenly said: "Where is our supply fleet still anchored on Nissan Island?"

As the commander of the fleet, Lin Jianzhang likes to attack others, and unexpectedly. Those who attack others naturally want to prevent others from attacking him at all times. Therefore, Lin Jianzhang instinctively believed that the actions of the Russian fleet were immediately taken toward their supply fleet.&1t;,>Xu Zhiwang Lifu said: "Xiaozan is only a kilometer away from the Russian fleet, and the Russian fleet only needs to sail for one hour;! In less than half an hour, the small Russian fleet can show our supply fleet!"

"Notify the supply fleet to evacuate immediately!"

"It's too late!"

Xu Zhiwang said: "The supply ship is much slower! It cannot escape the gunfire of the Russian fleet!" {,~ Lin Jianzhang said: "The Russians have learned very quickly? We knocked off their supplies for the front feet, and now they are taking revenge on us!"

Then he ordered: "Tell me the order, and the whole fleet will turn left to lead and pursue the Russian fleet!"

After receiving the order, the Pacific Fleet immediately turned to the northeast and quickly pursued the Russian Far East Fleet.

"I have an idea!" Xu Zhiwang suddenly said.

"Tell me!" Lin Jianzhang listened with stern eyes.

"What do I want to do with the supply fleet? It will lead the Russian fleet to take the bait!" Lieutenant General Xu Zhiwang said calmly.

"Are you crazy?" Lin Jianzhang was obviously dissatisfied with Xu Zhiwang's idea and said, "Do you know what you are doing?"

Then he said: "Use supply fleets as bait, it is purely meat buns to beat dogs, and there is no return!"

"Not necessarily!" Xu Zhiwang turned his head and said, "What if the buns contain poison?"

"What do you mean?"

Xu Zhi.com did not directly answer Lin Jianzhang's question, but asked back: "Do you think the Russians will sink our supply ship?"

"Of course they will be sunk!" Lin Jianzhang blurted out, and then changed his words: "It may not be necessary that they have no supplies at present. Naturally, capturing our supply ship is the best way to do it!"

Xu Zhiwang shook his head and said, "Not maybe! They will definitely leave our supply ship!"

Lin Jianzhang asked with a smile: "What are you going to do? If the arrangements are not done well, the charges of this enemy will be very serious!"

Xu Zhiwang continued: "Once the Russian fleet approaches, let our supply ships surrender and the escort destroyers evacuate.

Leave four submarines behind. Secretly dive under the supply ship so that their ventilation ducts can provide air to the submarines under the cover of the supply ship and maintain the opportunity to get close to the Russian fleet until the opportunity to approach the Russian fleet is mature!" Xu Zhiwang said, Lin Jianzhang already understood. After seeing the supply ship surrender, the Russian fleet would definitely be reluctant to launch artillery and sink them. Because the Russians needed supplies too much. The evacuation of the escort destroyer would make the Russian county fleet put aside their guards, and the supply ships were not armed. In this way, the submarines of the Imperial Qin Navy could quietly submarine to the center of the Russian fleet when the Russian fleet approached, and suddenly attacked the Russian fleet, causing the formation of the Russian fleet to chaotic.

"The plan is small and feasible!" Lin Jianzhang nodded and said, "But, in this way, the four submarines will be in danger!"

"Any action is risky!" Xu Zhiwang said: "As soldiers, they have already made preparations for sacrifice! However, whether they can complete the task alive depends on how our fleet cooperates with them?"

Xu Zhiwang continued: "If our entire fleet attacks when the submarine attacks, the Russian fleet will definitely take us as the main opponent, so the submarines in the middle can escape or continue to attack enemy ships, creating a larger fighter jet for us!"

"Okay!" Lin Jianzhang agreed to Xu Zhiwang's plan.
