Chapter 2557 Rely on yourself

"To be honest, in the face of this situation, our principle is to fight each other." Su Xiong said with a little embarrassed expression. Can you use the large fleet to fight in bad weather? Of course, it is OK. After all, the crown prince used the bad weather as a cover and waited for the rabbit to siege the Thomas fleet in the morning fog. It was a very classic battle example. In this battle, the cooperation of the German fleet can be said to be quite good. Of course, the Americans will definitely not be able to fight the cooperation and tactics that the elite German high seas fleet can fight. Let Su Xiong cooperate with the American fleet under complex conditions? Su Xiong feels that it is better to work alone, because at this time, Su Xiong would rather believe in his own judgment and the direct information provided by the fleet than the Americans!

Moreover, in foggy days, the information itself is blurred. After a few transmissions and after people add fuel to the fire, it is conceivable what the information is like! This is how the so-called "dig a person out of a well" comes from! Moreover, because of the optical factors of the foggy weather, they are worse than fighting in a clear night sky. At least at night, the fire emitted by the artillery can be easily captured by optical instruments, and the general direction will not be wrong. In the foggy weather, when you can't see your fingers, even if you can find it with a special searchlight, it's very close! At this time, it's really a matter of the quality of the officers and soldiers in the battle, as well as some special things!

Yes, the German Navy was actually prepared to deal with this extraordinary situation, such as a characteristic listener, which is used to assist in positioning the position of the opponent's cannon. Well, maybe someone said, if the war starts, and all kinds of sounds are so mixed, how do you position it? This is what you don't understand? In fact, there are equipment to reversely calculate the position of the cannon through sound. This is done by the British, and what the British are even more powerful is that they drive the magnetic needle by amplifying the vibration of the sound can leave some special marks on the paper tape, and based on these marks, they can eliminate noise and even distinguish certain specific cannons!

And the Germans naturally have this set! And because the Japanese and British use the same British gun, the Germans naturally know the audio characteristics of the British naval gun! By comparing the sound recorded through the sound locator with the signal samples obtained, do you know if the signal in the distance is sent by the Japanese? The Germans have a complete set of British naval gun data, ranging from 6-inch guns to 15-inch guns! In other words, as long as the distance is not particularly far, even in the case of fog, the Germans can determine whether the sound of the guns in the distance is sent by the Japanese fleet, and can also measure the approximate distance and direction!

In order to do this battle, the German Navy even took naval guns of various caliber from Britain and conducted test firing under different circumstances to collect a full set of data. Subsequently, the sound positioning system was used in some exercises to verify the reliability and accuracy of this sea-based anti-artillery system. And in this regard, the German Navy also shared some information with the Americans, but unfortunately, the US Navy was not interested in this. The reason is very simple. The effect of this system is a bit close and has a large error. Even at night, as long as there are searchlights or flares, the effect of the rangefinder is better than that of the sound positioning system. Moreover, this distance measurement can only be qualitative and cannot be quantified, which means that the accuracy of azimuth and distance cannot be used for fire control at all, so the Americans are not interested in it. The only good situation for the sound system to be useful is that the fog is too large, and the searchlights and flares are not easy to use.

So, it would be fine if the weather is not particularly bad. If the weather really reaches a very bad level, Su Xiong does not think that the US Navy system can provide too much effective information. It is not that the destroyers and patrol boats responsible for battlefield training cannot detect the Japanese army. Instead, it is about how to report these messages instantly and accurately, and then let the US Navy make the correct decision.

In the case of complex weather, most of the information collected is fake, and all kinds of things that can be captured and even made out of nothing will happen. If 100 pieces of information are sent, maybe only 5 are true. So, how to retrieve useful 5 pieces of information from these 100 pieces of information is a very difficult problem, which requires a large number of experienced staff to choose from.

War is a system, and the General Staff is to process this information. Su Xiong and Redel's teams were both the main ones who fought in the first battle. Who has not participated in a double-digit naval battle? Although there were only a few times in the North Sea War, in the Baltic and North Sea areas, small-scale fleet battles have never been interrupted. Not to mention, the British wanted to deploy mines near German ports, and the Germans wanted to deploy mines near British coasts. That's fine, the destroyers of both sides must take advantage of the bad weather to lay various mines and anti-mines! If you want to deal with bad weather, who can have more experience than the British and German navy?

Just like a professional accounting staff can tell whether the bill is true or not when they look at the bill without even checking the account! The German Navy staff can roughly guess whether this information is a false policeman or a real possibility by looking at the intelligence. They know all the key points under the conditions of bad weather combat. They are also policemen and thieves! In the face of this kind of master who has experienced a lot of war and has lived to this day, can their level be lower?

Therefore, Su Xiong really doesn't trust the US Navy who have almost zero practical experience under harsh conditions, and has ten staff members and eight of them have never been on the battlefield! And even if the information is true, can Benson make the correct judgment? Madan, wait until you find a wrong information from a bunch of messages and then delay it for a long time before issuing orders to me. This... Su Xiong really can't imagine what kind of results will be achieved in this situation.

"I hope that once a war breaks out, the German fleet will have more autonomy." Su Xiong said suddenly.

"What is more autonomy?" Benson revealed a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone. This was not because Benson thought Su Xiong could paddle. It was not because Su Xiong questioned his own ability. To be honest, if we only look at practical experience, Benson is really very trash. What battles have you commanded? How many games have you won? Have you been surrounded and suppressed? Have you chased the enemy? Have you really commanded a fleet on the battlefield, a battle where aviation power and submarines cooperated with each other? Benson has never done anything, but unfortunately Su Xiong has done it. In the past two years, he has intercepted countless Allied transport ships in the Indian Ocean, escaped from Thomas, and even fought against the Japanese fleet! It is normal for Su Xiong to question Benson's ability. Benson should express his understanding...
