"Even in the most optimistic situations, we will still be severely damaged, which is really powerless." Lieutenant General Duff said with a sigh.

"This is the best result. We have made the best plan. Let us hand over everything left to our officers and soldiers and God of Heaven." Jericho said with a smile.

Under the cover of night, everything was carried out according to Jericho's plan. Thomas' fleet began to quietly leave its previous position and prepare to join the main fleet. At the same time, the target fleet, which was a bait, also went to its reserved position to prepare for strategic deception.

What were the two Allied fleets doing at this time? After sending a very important telegram to Count Spee, Crown Prince Ruprecht ordered the fleet to enter radio silence and light control, and continued to sail westward. Count Spee was paced back and forth in the flagship command tower to consider whether to implement the plan that had been planned in his mind for a long time!

However, in the Norwegian sea area, in addition to some heavyweight players, there are also some guys who seem insignificantly busy, which are the camouflage reconnaissance ships and submarines deployed by the Germans here. Although the overly complex system always has some loopholes, it turns out that the system is much stronger than single-body confrontation. Therefore, with the advancement of human civilization, the advanced side will always have a more complete system!

As the fleets of both sides get closer and closer, time gradually approaches the critical time of war, the auxiliary forces deployed by the Germans in the Norwegian Sea area have further contracted. Just near the warned sea area that the German Navy has finally designated, at least 30 submarines have been in place and are fulfilling their responsibilities in the dark!

"If I still perform a break-in mission in the Atlantic Ocean, then I can contribute at least another 20,000 tons of battle." Standing on the deck of the u46o submarine, Denitz breathed the air with the smell of sea while looking at the sea in the distance. Night is a paradise for submarines. Under the conditions of war I, they can operate at night unscrupulously, and even float on the surface torpedo to attack warships with poor defense with torpedoes!

In the dark night, it is natural that the German submarines cannot rely solely on vision and searchlights to search for targets. At night, they also use radio sides to passively confirm the targets. Now, behind Denitz, several German naval officers and soldiers are erecting a huge antenna to receive radio signals from the British fleet.

"God! Are we the main force of the large fleet next to us?" When the antenna had just received the first radio communication, the radio operator exclaimed, he didn't need to know the specific content of the telegram at all. He only needed to know the call sign, frequency band and reporting technique were very similar to the Jericho flagship! In less than 2 minutes later, after the radio operator confirmed again, Denitz and others immediately rolled and crawled back to the submarine and dived in an emergency.

"The situation is a little wrong." After repeatedly adapting the radio side results, Denitz felt a little confused. If the radio signal in the distance is really the British fleet, then according to the distance measurement results, the u46o submarine is probably less than 10 kilometers away from this flagship! What is this? The British fleet has been fully deployed and has exceeded 10 kilometers. Under normal circumstances, it should be close to the inner circle of the British fleet. Not to mention that it is covered with warships above light cruisers, at least there are some destroyers? But now? There is no hair!

As for how Dengnitz judges the situation outside? At night, you can't rely on your eyes or turn on the lights directly. The former is unrealistic, and the latter is too dangerous. However, the new German submarines in this era have been equipped with early passive sonars and listeners. This thing has difficulty in showing submarines in the water, but if there is a large-scale fleet maneuver around, you can definitely hear noise like a vegetable market through the listener. After all, it is the sound wave generated by the maneuvering of hundreds of warships! However, strangely, Dengnitz's sea water is very quiet!

"Head, how do we report?" asked the first mate. The main task of the submarine force this time is reconnaissance. Since the situation is wrong, we naturally have to report to Shangfeng. But how do we write this report? I have shown the call sign of the British main fleet, but there is no ship around?

"This is a trap! This call sign is a fake. The British fleet is not sure where it is hidden!" said Dunitz. "To the headquarters telegram, we say that the British may use other ships to disguise the main force of the large fleet through telegrams and report the location."

"So what should we do now?" asked the first mate.

"Float, track the source of the telegram. If possible, we get closer!" After hesitation, Dunitz decided to take a risk because he just inferred from common sense that there should be no British fleet around him, but what if he guessed wrong? Sonar and hydrophones in this era were not so reliable! The rash rise may be his own life.

"Let's enter the semi-submersible state, we leak the antenna. In this way, we can report or receive signals and dive quickly." An officer said.

"Then let's do it for now." Dunitz nodded in agreement. However, shortly after the u46o re-float, Dunitz received a telegram, and the one who sent the telegram was the u471 submarine, which was also carrying out a reconnaissance mission, and was only 6 kilometers away from him! The submarine also discovered the sudden radio signal source!

"This is a trap! The British are doing radio tricks! The main force of their large fleet is hidden!" After reading the telegram, Denitz said firmly! Because the U471 submarine is too close to him, if there is really a large fleet nearby, he will never be indifferent to the two submarines in a semi-submarine state report! The British's radio direction finding is also very powerful, and at least they can find their approximate position, and then use destroyers to drive themselves back to the water is certain! They will never tolerate their position being exposed! So there is only one answer, this is a bait! A trap!

"Telection the headquarters immediately and report our judgment." Denitz ordered. Of course, he still dared not be too arrogant at this time. The reason is very simple. With the family background of the large fleet, even if it is just a bait, the destroyer may be arranged to provide protection. So at this time, it is better to keep a low profile. Denitz decided to continue tracking the signal source and search the surrounding waters to see if there are other signal sources performing similar tasks!
