"However, the Japanese army is attacking and we are defense. Your suggestion is very good, but I don't know if there is a specific plan." Benson asked. He could feel that there must be a reason for Su Xiong to say this! It is very likely that he already has a plan, a plan that can break the current deadlock!

"Drag the attack time and delay the attack in time for up to ten days." Su Xiong said.

"You mean, the Japanese Navy will launch an attack within ten days? What's the reason?" Benson asked.

"Weather! A new tropical storm is coming. Although it is not strong, it is enough to put the entire battlefield into a state of dark clouds. It is inevitable that the wind and waves and visibility will be reduced. As a weak navy, the Japanese fleet has no reason to give up this opportunity." Su Xiong said.

"The bad weather environment is a double-edged sword for both of us. Our reconnaissance capabilities will decrease and mobilization efficiency will decrease. But the same is true for the Japanese. If it were me, I would rather prefer night battles than fight when aviation reconnaissance and cover are not available." Benson frowned and said.

"We have to wait ten days? In fact, if we are lucky, our offensive will only last for three days. The storm area is on the sea and is far from land. At most, it will be cloudy and light rain on the land. Of course, it may also be accompanied by thick fog, but this is good news for the offensive troops. To be honest, I took the weather into consideration when I made the plan." Pan Xing said.

"Believe me, I have done at least 30 times in the Indian Ocean to attack transport fleets and or enemy fleets with thick fog! Two-thirds of them are targeting Japanese ships. I think even if the other party is a fool and has been beaten so many times, I have to learn something, right? His Royal Highness said that he became a doctor after a long illness. Therefore, I think the Japanese Navy will always consider fighting when the weather is not good, and must have conducted targeted training. At least, in the eyes of the Japanese, their experience and training in combat in bad weather should be a tactical advantage." Su Xiong said.

"So, are you Japanese teachers?" Sims suddenly said something in his mind.

"Do you fight in foggy days?" Benson also frowned. To be honest, the US Navy has never considered how to fight in foggy days. To be honest, in the North Sea, fighting in bad weather is a compulsory course for the British and German Navy. After all, the North Sea is known for its bad weather. The US Navy does not do targeted training. As for the Japanese Navy? Well, it can be described as becoming a doctor after a long illness.

"In fact, fighting in foggy or rainy days is more difficult than fighting at night, because under the same lighting conditions, night is actually much better than foggy days. The scheduling at various battles will be weakened to a minimum under very poor visibility. The result of a war can only look at the adaptability of both sides, and the larger the fleet, the more trouble it may be. The fleet may encounter accidents when maneuvering. From a tactical perspective, our advantages have indeed been further weakened." Majifen finally said a fair word at this time.

In actual combat experience, the Japanese fleet was indeed far behind the Americans at least two streets, otherwise the destroyers would not be beaten so badly during the battle. You know, although they have been wandering in the Indian Ocean, the vast Japanese light cruisers and destroyers are constantly fighting wits and courage with the German camouflage attack ships. Before the early morning and darkness, launching an attack with the help of morning fog or night cover and then retreating is the specialty of German camouflage attack ships and submarines. By the same token, the Japanese have learned a lot after being beaten too much. At least in the bloody and long sea strangle battle in the Indian Ocean, at least 5 German camouflage attack ships were destroyed.

If you really fight in heavy fog weather, many of the plans you have made before may not be used. First of all, when you are in foggy days, you can only rely on equipment to determine your location when you cannot see any reference objects. For example, in the North Sea battle, both the British and German navy rely on signal transmission towers on the opposite shore to determine your location. However, now, there are thousands of kilometers away from the nearest base! It’s storm again, and when it’s really a fight, the US Navy may not know where I am. After all, even at night, you can still use a sextant to determine your location, and in foggy days... What do you do?

Well, if you can't even solve this problem, then all the battle tactical settings based on drawing and deduction are already ggled. It's impossible to do it!

"We can use the Army's radio station to act as a signal base station for this problem. Although it is not professional and may be easily interfered with, we can always make do with it first." At this time, Pershing said, I can help. Of course, it is definitely not as professional as the Navy station, but it is better than nothing.

"The second problem is that the enemy and enemy are identified. In time, we can arrange a dedicated radio operator for each ship to transmit and receive identification signals. However, for the entire fleet center, we do not have the ability to process these complicated data, and the radio frequency width may not be enough." Majifen said the second problem.

"It's very simple. Before the storm comes, all unrelated ships will be withdrawn to minimize the number of ships left on the battlefield." Benson said.

Benson's method is effective, but it will still leave a large number of battle-related ships in the sea, such as the fleet's gasoline tanker, various supply ships, transportation ships and warships ready to support the army at any time. As for why support the army? The reason is very simple. The Americans know that it is beneficial to the attack when taking advantage of the weather and weakening the Japanese firepower points. The Japanese also know that it is possible to launch an attack! The heavy fog is beneficial to the attacking party! Therefore, the US and Japanese army are very likely to launch an offensive battle! And if this is true, the fire support of the naval gun is very necessary!

"Okay, General Su Xiong, from the current situation, the Japanese do have a great advantage in this situation. They don't have to consider identifying the enemy and us, because they only have one fleet to launch an attack. The Japanese can kill all the fleets they can meet, and our command system may also fall into chaos. So, do you have any suggestions for this situation?" Speaking of this, Benson has actually agreed. The Japanese are likely to launch an attack in fog or rainy days!
