Chapter 1138: Finding Traces

You can search for the latest chapters in Baidu for "Super Emperors Search Novels of the Late Qing Dynasty (www.soxscc.com)"Dongfang’s newest class of destroyer Qingfeng class 021 is searching in the northern Mediterranean waters in order to find the main fleet of Geely people, and his sister ship No.022 destroyer is 10 nautical miles away. Wade is Be able to take care of each other if something happens.

"Have you found traces of the Geely Chinese fleet?" The captain sent Qing Shan to the radar room to inquire about the situation.

The eastern Qingfeng-class destroyer has a radar-to-air detection of 150 kilometers and a sea surface of 40 kilometers. Although it is not as long as the large radars of battleships and battlecruisers, it also exceeds the radar of the Geely nationals, so they met. It must be that they discover each other’s ships first.

So their radar can always be on, there is no need to worry about them being discovered by the other party first..

"Captain, we haven't found anything abnormal yet!" The radar officer replied while looking at the radar.

"Okay! Keep monitoring and notify me as soon as there is a situation,"

"Forget it! I'll just stay here!"

He originally planned to leave, so he found a seat and sat down directly. Anyway, there was nothing to do. Today, he planned to stay up all night.

"Yes! Captain!" The radar officer could reply, but after hearing the second half of the captain's words, he could only smile and continue to stare at the radar's movements...

John's navy went south. Although the East also sent a lot of destroyers to search, the possibility of passing by them is still very high, and we must be more vigilant.

At the same time, John’s main fleet had moved south and was very close to the sea where they were.

Unlike the Eastern Navy. Because of the technological gap, although the Johns also have radars, they are much larger than the Eastern ones. Therefore, only cruisers are equipped with small radars. His search range is less than 30 kilometers, so each The cruisers have opened a distance of 30 kilometers between them, which can not only maximize the effect of the radar, but also make the distance between each other not too far, which is convenient for support.

At this time, on John's Battlecruiser Brute, Major General Jamie was also asking about the Eastern Fleet.

"Damn Orientals, where are they? Now it's 1 o'clock. If we can't find them in three hours, we will go back."

Jamie looked at the dark sea outside and started to complain. They used lights to perceive when they sailed, so the entire battleship was wrapped up. There was no moonlight tonight. The visibility on the sea was very low and it seemed natural. not good.

His confidence comes from the speed and firepower of these battleships and battlecruisers. As long as the main force of the Chinese army can catch up and attack, as long as the main force of the Orientals can be found, and the 406MM and 457MM artillery, as long as one hit, the aircraft carrier can be severely damaged. , If you hit several rounds, it is likely to sink directly, but at any rate you have to let them find the trace.

"What's the situation now, are there any traces of the Eastern navy?"

He walked into the radar room again and asked about the situation.

"General, I haven't found anything yet. I will notify you as soon as I find one." The officer reported that although the Mediterranean Sea is not large, it still has more than two million square kilometers. I want to find one. The fleet also has a certain degree of difficulty.

"Increase the search range and report to me as soon as there is any movement."

Jamie nodded when he heard the words and said to the adjutant beside him.

"Yes! General!" The adjutant nodded.

Immediately, Jamie went back to the commanding tower and waited for the news. When it was two o'clock, he really couldn't stand it, so he went to the lounge to rest. Anyway, if he finds out, someone will notify him.

And this is also right. If the commander does not even have a basic rest when a war breaks out, it will still be easy to make mistakes in judgment.

Inside the Qingfeng 021 destroyer, there was a sound from the radar, and Song Qingshan was shocked and looked at the radar officer.

"The captain found the fleet of Geely people!" The radar officer reported immediately.

"Immediately write down the location and report it to the main fleet of the Geely nationals." Song Qingshan said to the adjutant at the edge.

"Yes!" While answering, the adjutant had already asked the radar officer for the coordinates, and he would give the coordinates to the communications staff.

"Captain, now our west and east are Geely warships. If we want to evacuate without being discovered by them, we can only evacuate to the south." After the adjutant left, the radar officer reported to Song Qingshan. .

"Being south? Absolutely not! You must take the Geely Chinese fleet as far as possible from the main fleet!"

"First walk towards the Geely people in the direction of due south to due north. It may be confirmed that they will find us and then evacuate to the southeast. This way, it is very likely to deceive the Geely people. It is already half past two. Just hold on. After an hour, even if the Geely people discovered that our main fleet could not affect them."

Hearing this, Song Qingshan's eyebrows were deeply corrected, and he said a few seconds later.

"Yes! Our speed is much faster than their destroyers, and safety will not be a problem. If they are out of touch with the large forces, they can even counterattack." The radar officer also nodded in agreement.Biquge vp www.vp268.com

At this time, the adjutant had just finished communicating with the communications staff, and some staff officers on duty had all arrived after hearing the news.

"Immediately order the chief engineer to sail due north, maintain a speed of 30 knots, and prepare for battle at all positions. When we find the traces of the Geely Chinese, we turn to the direction of 4:30 to advance at full speed, notify the destroyer No. 022, and send The intention is to tell them to ask them to cooperate."

Song Qingshan issued an order after seeing the crowd arrived.

Ten minutes later, there was an anomaly on the Geely National Navy’s radar. Two light spots appeared on their radar. First they approached quickly and left after a few minutes.

The information was quickly communicated to the Battlecruiser Brutal, and Jamie had to get up again.

"What's going on?" It didn't take long before he was called, and Jamie was still awake, but he didn't react and shook his head vigorously before regaining consciousness.

"Commander, I found the two warships of the Easterners. According to their size, they should be destroyers." The communications staff reported.

"Destroyer? This should be the Easterner's reconnaissance unit. Go ahead and call the radar chief!" Jamie couldn't help frowning. He didn't find that the Easterner's aircraft carrier formation disappointed him. They were going to destroy the aircraft carrier this time, not these. Small fish and shrimp.

"Yes! Commander!" The communications staff nodded, turned and went out, and soon the radar room officer came to the island.

"The Orientals' radar is a small radar, ours is a large radar, will they spot us when we spot them?" Jamie asked.

"Commander, in theory, the Orientals’ radar is more advanced than ours. If it is the same size, the Orientals must have spotted us first, but this time it’s their destroyer, that’s not necessarily the case. We can’t determine their radar search range. ."

"But originally they entered our radar field of view from the south, and after two minutes, they turned to the southeast and left. Obviously they found us." The radar chief reported.

"Damn it, the cunning Orientals actually found us and wanted to deceive us. They immediately sent a cruiser and a destroyer to stare at them, and the fleet continued to move south."

Jamie couldn't help but get angry. Now their position has been discovered by the Easterners. The Eastern aircraft carrier fleet is likely to adjust its position because of this. It has become more difficult to meet the Eastern aircraft carrier formation.

Obviously, according to the performance of the two destroyers in the East, the Eastern fleet should be in the south, which is in line with his original guess. Now the two destroyers are fleeing to the southeast to draw their attention.

Fortunately, since encountering those destroyers who wanted to come to the main fleet in the east, there was still a chance.

As for the tail behind, you just need to clean it up or watch it.

"Yes, Commander." The communications staff immediately went to Xiamen University to order.

Immediately from the boring fleet, a cruiser and a destroyer crashed to the east. As long as they were driven away so that the destroyers would not stare at them, it was enough. As for the capital ship, it would continue to go south, hoping to be able to Find the battleship of the Easterners.

It's a pity that they are destined to take the air. The position of the Eastern battleship is already on their southwest line of defense, and the destroyers in the nearby sea have arrived. Through the advantages of radar and speed, their position can be determined well, so that they can stand against it. A place of defeat...

Over the night, the Geely people did not have the slightest result. Jamie could only order the main fleet to retreat quickly and join the aircraft carrier formation.

He knew that after dawn, it was destined to be the world of Eastern carrier aircraft. Judging from the battle situation yesterday, they were already at a disadvantage. They had to protect Hao’s own aircraft carrier formation, and might even have to evacuate temporarily, and then go south again when it gets dark or Westward.

Although Jamie and Tovey were unwilling to give up this operation, they had no choice. If they didn't evacuate quickly and were spotted by the Eastern carrier aircraft, their good days would come to an end.

Earlier, corresponding preparations began in the headquarters of the Eastern Mediterranean Fleet.

"Commander, it's half past four, and the Geely country's navy hasn't found us yet, they have no chance." Li Si looked at the time and said with a smile.

"Well, it is estimated that they will return to the voyage in a while. Now the Geely National Navy is getting weaker and weaker, and there is still the appearance of the maritime hegemon in the past." Wang Xuran nodded and said with a smile.

"Yes, it was invincible in the past, and now the sun is shining, and the empire is really about to fall, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse. It is still very difficult for the nation of will to defeat them. It is estimated that they will stay together for a long time..."

"It's too far, what should we do now, Commander? Should we be able to prepare?" Li Si sighed and realized that now he is still fighting the Geely Navy.

"Let the fleet move directly north, as close as possible to the enemy, so that the carrier-based aircraft is also ready to attack at any time."

Wang Xuran nodded and ordered.

Soon it’s going to dawn. Once it’s dawn, it will be time for the Geely people to flee. Now it is better to narrow the distance with the Geely people and provide a better combat environment for the carrier-based aircraft.

In fact, even if it is the fleet that encounters Geely nationals now, there is no need to worry, the outer destroyers will pass on the information, and they can transfer at any time.This buffer distance is there, and the sky will soon be bright enough for the fighter planes to take off before the enemy fleet gets closer.

"Yes! Commander" Li Si went directly to issue the order. After staying up all night, he can finally wait for the counterattack. They can also take a break and find the trouble of the Geely Chinese aircraft carrier formation afterwards...
