August 2, 1841, evening, near Vladivostok.
The Pacific Fleet of the Russian Empire Navy is replenishing, and one supply ship after another is replenishing fuel, fresh water, food and other supplies for all the warships of the Pacific Fleet.
Since the outbreak of the Far East War, the Pacific Fleet has abandoned the Nemuro Naval Port and allowed it to be destroyed by the Orientals. The entire fleet has hidden in the Whale Sea. This is undoubtedly a great shame for them.
This also makes the officers and soldiers of the Pacific Fleet feel angry.
Now it’s good, the time is finally ripe, and it’s time for them to launch a counterattack.
On the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, the battleship Anna I, the fleet commander Admiral Kuznetsov and the chief of staff Major General Sergeyev are discussing the combat deployment after "880".
"Commander, it is estimated that the entire fleet will be fully replenished in two hours. At that time, we will cross the Tatar Strait under the cover of night, enter the Sea of Okhotsk, and join the Northern Fleet. Then, we will cross the Kuril Islands and enter the Pacific Ocean to prepare to join the Black Sea Fleet.
Of course, there is a high probability that we will be discovered by the Japanese and the Lighthouse people when we cross the Kuril Islands. At that time, they will launch a fierce attack on us. And we must withstand the attack of the Japanese and the Lighthouse people. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."
Major General Sergeyev said.
Admiral Kuznetsov nodded: "In fact, we are bait, so that the Japanese and the Lighthouse people will concentrate their forces to attack us. Then, we must do our best to resist the attack of the carrier-based aircraft of the Japanese and the Lighthouse people. This is undoubtedly a great test for the fleet!"
"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander. The Japanese deployed 13 aircraft carriers and more than 600 carrier-based aircraft. The Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Navy also dispatched 4 aircraft carriers with more than 300 carrier-based aircraft. They If added together, the total number of carrier-based aircraft has reached thousands. The number of carrier-based aircraft that can be mobilized on our five aircraft carriers is only more than 450 in total, which is less than half of that of the Orientals and the Lighthouse Country. Of course, the fleet can go south along the eastern waters of Sakhalin Island. In this way, we can get the support of shore-based aviation. Our three shore-based aviation wings can all be transferred to Sakhalin Island. Once we are attacked, we can ask shore-based aircraft to provide us with reinforcements. "Major General Sergeyev said. "There are more than 300 aircraft in the three shore-based aviation wings. With their assistance, our pressure will be much less. Besides, the Northern Fleet is also ready. The Northern Fleet may not be strong in terms of battleships. However, his five aircraft carriers have been dispatched. More than 400 carrier-based aircraft, whether used for air defense or for attacking the Oriental Navy and the Lighthouse Country Navy, are enough to deal a fatal blow to them. If there are no accidents, andAnd if we operate well. Then, we can not only withstand the attack of the Orientals and the Lighthouse people, but also severely damage them. Next, if the Black Sea Fleet makes another attack, the Orientals and the Lighthouse people will lose!" Admiral Kuznetsov is full of confidence in the next battle.
After the Pacific Fleet and the Northern Fleet joined forces, they were no worse than the Orientals and the Lighthouse people in terms of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, and even stronger.
If we get the cooperation of shore-based aircraft, we will have a great advantage.
Even if the Orientals and the Lighthouse people still have a great advantage in capital ships.
But the advantages of the Pacific Fleet and the Northern Fleet of the Tsarist Russian Navy in carrier-based aircraft are enough to offset the disadvantages in capital ships.
If we are lucky, it will not be a big problem to severely damage the Japanese Empire Navy Combined Fleet and the Lighthouse Navy in one fell swoop.
"Commander, it seems that we have to act as bait this time. We must first attract the Orientals and the Lighthouse people to attack us. If they attack the Black Sea Fleet first, the Black Sea Fleet may suffer heavy losses. "Major General Sergeyev was a little worried.
Although the Black Sea Fleet is also very strong, its advantage lies in the battleships.
This time, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Empire Navy can be said to have dispatched a large number of battleships0… However, there are still only five aircraft carriers. If we face the full-scale attack of the Oriental Empire Navy and the Lighthouse Navy, we may be at a disadvantage.
"There is indeed some danger over there with the Black Sea Fleet. However, in the eyes of the Orientals and the Lighthouse people, the Black Sea Fleet is stronger than us. Therefore, they will most likely want to get rid of us first, and then concentrate their forces on dealing with the Black Sea Fleet. However, we must also let the Orientals and the Lighthouse people see the opportunity. In this way, when the fleet passes through the Kuril Islands again, it can break the radio silence and let the Orientals and the Lighthouse people know our location! "Admiral Kuznetsov said. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Although there will be some dangers in this case.
But Admiral Kuznetsov believes that he should be able to cope with it if everything is ready.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander!" Rear Admiral Sergeyev replied.
"In addition, after we join the Northern Fleet, let the Northern Fleet lag behind us by about 100 kilometers. Lest our two fleets act together, if they are discovered by the Orientals and the Lighthouse people, they will not dare to attack us." Admiral Kuznetsov said.
The main force of the Northern Fleet this time is five aircraft carriers. This is also the biggest help to the Pacific Fleet.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander 3.2! In this case, the Orientals and the Lighthouse people should think that their opportunity has come, and they will surely be eager to attack us. And what we have to do is to do our best to defend the air and resist the attacks of the Orientals and the Lighthouse people! "Major General Sergeyev said.
Admiral Kuznetsov nodded. In the next battle, they must do their best to be a qualified bait to let the Orientals and the Lighthouse people attack them.
Once the Orientals and the Lighthouse people really think they can defeat them. Then, they will know how wrong they are. They will fall into the trap set by the Russian Empire Navy. The Japanese Empire Navy Combined Fleet is in danger. And the Lighthouse Navy will also suffer heavy losses.
The Russian Empire Navy will completely establish its maritime advantage through this battle! .
