Chapter 1003： Encounter one

Chapter 1003

Behind the main fleet are 3 big 4 middle, a total of 7 transport ships. On both sides of the fleet, a destroyer detachment was deployed. The entire fleet quickly headed northeast in a three-row formation, and the speed is estimated to be around 20 knots!

"The kingfisher found the Austro-Hungarian fleet, they all came out, five large battleships and a large number of destroyers, they are right in front of my eyes, in the southwest of the fleet!" The telegrapher in the back seat was also shocked by the situation. , He reported immediately! At this time, the seaplane was not far away from its own fleet, about 30 kilometers away. The Fuso released this seaplane for training purposes. By the way, it was a shock to the submarine that might be nearby, but the Japanese did not think of it. The thing is, this little guy actually found the Austro-Hungarian fleet heading to Rhode Island!

This quite unexpected and nervous news was instantly sent to the battleship Fuso via radio waves, and when Kato Seiyoshi received this telegram, he felt a little bit in his heart, as well as a faint expectation! This worry, but the feeling of wanting to fight at the same time made him feel very strange! Although the German navy and warships were famous after the outbreak of World War I, the Japanese navy was also not muddled! And especially if your warship is 6,000 tons larger than the opponent and at least £400,000 more expensive than the opponent, it is said that if nothing happens, you should have the advantage, right?

"What is General Hall's opinion?" Kato Seiyoshi asked.

"General Hall meant to intercept! We can't let the Austro-Hungarian fleet easily rendezvous with the Spey fleet. What's more, the other side seems to be carrying a lot of supplies and accessories!" An officer pointed to the British warship behind. Semaphore said.

"Then let's start! Let's take a look at the condition of the Austro-Hungarian fleet!" said Lieutenant General Kato Seiyoshi, and then the staff on the battleship Fuso began to map the routes of the two sides based on the collected information. At this time, the British and Japanese fleets are heading to the northwest, while the Austro-Hungarian fleet is heading to the northeast. The straight-line distance between the two sides is about 40 kilometers, but because of the tendency of relative navigation, each other should be able to see their opponents at most 15 minutes. And at most half an hour, both sides can bring each other's warships into the range of their guns!

"Just tell the French that we have encountered the Austro-Hungarian fleet! I hope they will support it immediately!" A moment later, Lieutenant General Kato Seiyoshi added another order. Inwardly, Kato Seiyoshi still felt a little unstable... So he decided to greet the Frenchman first, but what he didn't expect was that his greeting only brought him a sense of psychological security, but it actually caused great trouble for the British and Japanese fleets.. .....

"Your Excellency Commander, our radio personnel have just intercepted a new high-power signal source!" On the sea nearly 80 kilometers away from the Japanese fleet, a huge fleet is sailing southwest, and the leading flagship The high-flying lieutenant general clearly made his identity clear. He had just severely damaged the French fleet in the night attack not long ago, and the Earl of Spey quietly entered the Aegean Sea again, but this time, according to the previous script , I seem to be just picking up a friend.

But now things seem to have changed! A sudden strong radio signal broke the calm on the sea! "This doesn't seem to match the script!" The earl muttered to himself after listening to his subordinates' report. According to the previous agreement, the two fleets will maintain strict radio silence unless they reach the scheduled assembly point or encounter an emergency. However, from the location, the new radio signal source seems to be a little far away from the scheduled meeting point. , And the location is not right, a little too close to the south.

"Your Excellency Commander, we seem to have some trouble. After receiving all the telegrams, we found that we could not decipher this telegram! This is not any kind of password we encountered before! And it was definitely not sent by our people. "Five minutes later, Major General Schultz said with a green face.

"Fuck! This TMD is not right!" Earl Spey immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. This is no small matter! The undecipherable telegram illustrates a problem. It must be the Allied fleet! If the password is completely different from the previous one, the problem will be even more serious! This can only mean two possibilities. One is that the other party suddenly chooses to change the password, and this means that the other party will have a big action. After all, the password security just used is the highest! And the other possibility is that a new force suddenly broke in! Either way, the impact is not conducive to the Allies!

"Fleet-scale radio communications, brand-new passwords and techniques!" The count couldn't help but breathe a cold breath. He felt that he and the Austro-Hungarian fleet seemed to have fallen into a pit...

"Is the Japanese fleet coming?!" Schultz said with some concern.

"It seems possible at the moment! The Japanese fleet is not terrible. What is really terrible is when the Japanese fleet merges with the French fleet! Where is the French fleet?" The earl stood up and walked a few steps to the top of the chart. It marked the position of its own fleet, the expected route of the Austro-Hungarian fleet, and the approximate location of the new signal source!

"We seem to be in big trouble!" The earl's voice trembled a little It's really cool to hold the power that can change the situation in one day, but the huge power also means huge. Responsibility, when things are a little bit beyond one's expectations, it is impossible to say that the earl is not afraid! Because losing is not just a problem of self-determination, it even directly affects the national fortune of an empire! Affect the destiny of thousands of people! And now, the location of this anomalous signal source is right in the middle of your own fleet! Cut at the meeting point of both sides like a sharp blade!

If the Japanese and French fleets are now converging, then the Earl’s fleet will definitely not be able to fight, and even open a hang, so that the Austrian-Hungarian fleet suddenly come to join him, and then have a battle with the Allied fleet. , After all, Earl’s 4 battleships were all wounded. Adding the Austro-Hungarian fleet in time, hitting the opponent's fleet consisting of 2 Fusang, 3 Brestani, and 3 Gupa-class battleships is absolutely useless! What's more serious is that I discovered the problem myself, but the Austro-Hungarian fleet does not seem to have discovered this fleet that suddenly appeared!

Count Spey could feel a drop of cold sweat falling from his head, and it clicked and fell on the table.
