Chapter 2594 On the self-cultivation of bait 2
"Okay, two, the war is still going on. Let's talk about these lyrical words until after the war you celebrate victory or write memoirs! We still have the important things to do now! The mission of seducing the enemy has not been completed, we are still far from it!" At this moment, a slightly rude voice interrupted the conversation between the two. The speech was Major General Moore, a special member of the British Royal Navy.
"But we have sent two slow battleships." Yamamoto Iroku said in surprise.
"We are bait ourselves. Have you ever caught fish? Do you know what bait is? Bait means that no matter whether we can catch fish in the end, we will sacrifice it! Do you understand this? For a bait, the best result is that we die and let the fisherman catch the fish. If there is a decoupling, even if we eventually survive, we will be a bait that fails! At that time, people will say that you won't even die!" Major General Moore said mercilessly.
"What you mean is to slow down our fleet, then let the Americans catch up and then sink one by one?" Others in the mountain house said with some dissatisfaction. After all, no one wants to die!
"Rescue is a must. Only when Americans see hope will they chase us, but first of all, we must give a reason to slow down! Do you understand? I mean, we must make our actions seem less artificial in the eyes of Americans! It makes them feel natural that the Royal Navy has prepared you for you. It is time for those special cigarette cans to work." Major General Moore said.
To be honest, after the war training, the senior British Royal Navy has definitely improved the tactical details of the battle by several levels. Not to mention Betty, his command ability and combat command ability for the large fleet have surpassed Su Xiong, but in terms of specific details, it is worse than Su Xiong who fights small-scale fleets all day long. In addition, the Japanese fleet level is not as powerful as Germany, which allows Su Xiong to escape at a smaller price.
And what about Moore? This guy is getting farther and farther on the road of disguise and deception! So much so that he has reached the pinnacle! First of all, the first problem he solved is the camouflage problem of the number of fleets! Don’t forget that in the previous battles, the Japanese fleet invested 10 battleships, and now, there are only 6 of the other battleships that can be called regular battleships in the Yamaya Other Fleet. So what should I do if the other 4 ships are?
You should know that the two numbers 10 and 6 are very different! Even in the night battle environment, the gap between the number of main ships is so big that it will arouse the other party’s suspicion. If you say there are 10 warships in total, only 8 to 9 will result. Then this can be explained as if you didn’t see it correctly, but when it comes to 6, it is unlikely. At least, the senior management of the US Navy will definitely be confused!
Well, do you know how Major General Moore solved it? It's very simple! Is the main battleship not enough? Use a light cruiser to make up! At the request of the Major General, the Japanese Navy specially transformed two light cruisers. This transformation is very simple, but some light sources are installed in some positions on the hull! You must know that even if it is light control, some lights will still be on, and these lights will inadvertently identify the outline of the ship, even the size of the ship! And some experienced people will judge the nature of the battleship based on this outline!
Major General Moore operated based on these experiences! He deliberately raised the position of some additional light sources so that the lights look higher. In the distance, when you infer the bridge of the corresponding battleship based on these lights, you feel that the bridge is larger because the light source is higher!
As for the length? This is also easy to deal with. Add some light sources to the end of the hull. You should know that under normal circumstances, there is no light source for the front deck and rear deck of the warship. If these light sources are added, it will cause a misjudgment on the length of the warship. After all, the correspondence between the light source and length of the normal light cruiser may be the extra 30 meters of the distance between the farthest light source. Now, the distance between your furthest light source is widened, so the inference of the appearance of the warship will naturally cause problems! Therefore, in the night, these two light cruisers play the role of the main battleship very well!
Well, maybe someone asked, what if the other party gets closer when pretending to be disguised? Isn’t that simple? You just put these two light cruisers in the front of the marching queue? According to general rules, in this kind of pursuit, the US destroyer must have found the last two warships in the queue to attack. After all, the distance is closest and the defense is weakest! Are you rushing to the front and waiting to be shot into a sieve by the side cannons of more other warships?
Of course, in order to perform a good scene, in addition to good hardware, actors must also be professional. For example, appropriately control the speed of the warship and disperse the distance between the warships. In this way, the other party will feel the rush of the escapee. Similarly, because the distance between the light cruiser in front and the American fleet will make it more difficult for the other party to find the authenticity! What the Japanese did before can only be considered as a normal rule!
So, up to now, Major General Moore's deception has been very good! In the eyes of the American fleet, he has been chasing a fleet of 8 to 10 warships! He did not realize that he was chasing only 6 front dreadnoughts! From this point of view, Major General Moore is already a drama artist! But in fact, Major General Moore did better!
Others in Yamaya said it well. After throwing away the two battleships, the Japanese fleet had some reasons to continue to attract the American fleet. After all, it is understandable that you bring two fearless ships in front of you and then throw them away slowly. But the Japanese fleet did not have so many slow battleships? If you run slowly, it would be a bit artificial. The Americans may eventually see some clues. At this time, the second system prepared by Major General Moore will be on the stage, which is a special cigarette can!
The Japanese need to give the Americans a reason to slow down the warship! If Major General Moore provided a reason, this reason would be even a cigarette canister on the Liurik-class battleship ranked last! This cigarette canister is different from a general cigarette canister, which only releases smoke, and this is a fire after being shot! The US fleet is actually firing at other Japanese warships. In theory, with such visibility, it is difficult to hit the other party, but who can say there is no accident? So Major General Moore decided to throw out the third bait - a Japanese battleship that slowed down due to being shot! In order to delay more time!
