The only thing that can be sure to avoid the ears of the US submarine force is the bad weather a few days ago! All the American submarines in this sea area did not float up all night, and if the team observes the bad sea conditions at night through the periscope, it can only be comforted. However, it is obviously unreasonable as a food ship to leave the port on such a bad night. After all, this ship does not undertake military tasks most of the time, and there is actually nothing wrong with it.
“Maybe the Japanese want to eat some cakes from their hometown? Maybe Mamiya is clearing the coal bunker and flue? Maybe the Japanese fleet is about to launch a large-scale operation, so Mamiya is going to supplement the Japanese fleet with some specific food? I can think of ten thousand reasons! You are a little nervous.” Charles said with a frown.
“No, no, no, it is definitely not neurotic. If Mamiya is a special case, then we can focus on other areas. According to the information we have obtained, two weeks ago, a large number of fast oil tankers attached to the Japanese Navy They used to go to the oil fields of the former Dutch East Indies, where they installed at least more than 60,000 tons of heavy oil. Then these bunkers disappeared at once. They did not appear in the waters north of the Philippines and all went to Japan. The oil tankers in Japan are all low-speed ships, so good, now the question arises, what is the purpose of this Japanese supply fleet carrying tens of thousands of tons of fuel?” Richard asked.
“This should be the task of the intelligence analysts of the Pacific Fleet. It has nothing to do with us.” Charles said while recalling the previous intelligence. He did see the telegram forwarded by the Navy Department requesting the search for the missing Japanese fuel carrier. The Navy is very concerned about this aspect and has issued orders in this regard at least three times. After all, fighting on the Pacific Ocean, every large-scale operation of oil tankers at sea can be regarded as a sign of the beginning of a certain battle!
“And the most important thing is that we can’t verify that what you said is right or wrong. We can’t enter the Davao Bay military port! And we don’t have a plane that can fly over the port. From the sea, we don’t You may find the situation of the battleship in the harbor!” Charles also said anxiously.
“I feel that the recent situation is very abnormal. Didn’t you find that the Japanese naval aviation aircraft trained in the entire Davao Bay are very few? You know, there may be 4 aircraft carriers in this port before, and the Japanese navy ships. The air force maintains a very high training frequency. Every day during the day, there are at least 200 Japanese aircraft training in the sky above us, but now? If we don’t consider the occasional anti-submarine ships, we can even take a breath during the day! This It’s very unusual, such a big change happened within a few days! Didn’t you feel that our pressure has become very small?” Richard said.
“So? These are things that we can’t prove. What do you want to do? Are we going to write a telegram to include all the long stories you told me just now? We can write a novel and send it to Pearl Harbor What do you think the staff will think about this problem? Do they think we are making a fuss, or is there something wrong with our head?” Charles said.
In the end, Richard failed to persuade his first mate to send a telegram with him to explain the changes in Davao Port. So Richard could only send this telegram to the headquarters in his own name, describing the unusual situation in the last few days, and at the same time implicitly stated that the Japanese fleet may have been removed from the port under the cover of severe weather a few days ago. go away. Coincidentally, just a few hours after Richard sent the telegram, the Salmon submarine, which also performed the same mission in Davao Port, also sent a similar telegram.
The Salmon has performed 4 missions in the nearby waters. The personnel on the submarine can perceive the changes in this area more keenly than others. Simply put, the pressure is reduced. If it is more complicated, it will be a bit metaphysical. It’s like you are frantically dying next to a sleeping lion, under tremendous pressure, and one day, you find that the pressure is gone, and then you feel a little different.
However, in the end, these two pieces of information were like two stones thrown into the ocean, and they did not cause much disturbance. As Charles said, this kind of unfounded intelligence and only inferred intelligence will not attract high-level attention. After several retransmissions, the two telegrams were accepted by the US Naval Intelligence Department, and then they were thrown aside by a certain officer. Then they simply recorded the information and completed the archive. In this way, nearly a week after the Japanese combined fleet left Davao Port, the U.S. Navy still did not know that the Japanese had left the Philippines. Now, the Japanese combined fleet has bypassed the island of New Guinea and Australia and is heading toward the depths of the ocean. !
Well, now the question is, what are Americans doing now? What is the US Naval Intelligence Service staring at? They always have to do something, right? In fact, the US naval intelligence department is really busy, they are looking for the bait that the Japanese threw out before!
“Have you found the Japanese assault ship?” Sims asked over and over after eating breakfast~www.mtlnovel.com~ Just two weeks ago, a group of transport ships was attacked 600 kilometers north of the Bismarck Islands. According to the information returned, at least one of the Japanese warships participating in the attack was a warship over 10,000 tons!
Two days later, another transport fleet from Hawaii to the front line was also attacked. In this operation, the US **** warship discovered two large warships! The distance between the two attacks was more than 1,500 kilometers. It can be concluded that it was an attack by the two attacking fleets. Facing the attack on its own aorta, the US Navy’s nerves that had been lax were tightened again. Although the loss of the attacked fleet is not great, in order to ensure the smooth flow of communication, the White House directly issued an order to the Pacific Fleet, asking Sims and others to clear these pirates as soon as possible!
“No, the Japanese fleet is very careful this time, and even I feel a little too careful. All the warships involved in breaking the relationship are very conservative when they attack. They usually use the twilight to launch attacks and never do too much entanglement. , It belongs to the kind that can hit and run, and if you can’t hit, you can use the last few hours before dark to launch an attack, and immediately transfer after the fight. It is difficult for us to keep an eye on the opponent.” Ma Jifen said.
