Before the Ye enters the Indian Ocean point... The "Whale Watching" is cool in the waters west of Nakanoya Island....More than ten days.

Because of the sovereignty of several islands in the Sulu Sea, Malaysia and the Philippines were at odds a few years ago. The Philippines had long defected to the United States. After the Japanese war, it became the "number one" of the United States in the Western Pacific region and received strong assistance from the United States. It established an underwater force with 8 submarines around the age of childhood. Although Malaysia did not join the "South China Sea Alliance Circle" led by the Republic, Malaysia has close contact with the Republic.

Economic and trade exchanges are very close to the Republic. When the United States helped the Philippines build the "First Fleet in Southeast Asia", Malaysia had to seek help from the Republic. In Liwannian, it introduced a large number of weapons and equipment from the Republic, and purchased the all-electric attack submarine developed on the basis of the "Dolphin" class in 2018. It was not equipped with a controllable fusion reactor, but like the "Swordfish", it improved its submarine capabilities by equipping more composite batteries.

Zhang Xuefeng is not wasting his time. Maintaining peace and stability in the areas surrounding the South China Sea has always been the responsibility of the Republic.

More importantly, Zhang Xuefeng has not received the order to enter the Indian Ocean.

It was not until July that Zhang Xuefeng received the order: to decide on his own flight to the East Indian Ocean and stand by.

The command is very short, and the submarine does not need to float to the depth of the periscope, and it is enough to use the strategic communication channel.

If it were other captains, such as Zhang Xuefeng's biggest competitor, Xiao Jingbo, would enter the Indian Ocean from the Sunda Strait without hesitation. In fact, Xiao Jingbo did this. The second ship of the "Lizard Whale" class, directed by him, entered the Indian Ocean from the Sunda Strait.

Zhang Xuefeng did not go south, but went to the Strait of Malacca.

The Strait of Malacca is definitely a "gate of hell" against the submarine forces of the Republic's Navy

As early as after the South China Sea storm in the late 1900s, the United States strengthened its relations with Singapore. Not only did it expand the scale of Changi Air Force Base, it also deployed the first permanent fleet in Singapore. Shortly after the end of the Peninsula War, the United States officially deployed a thug aircraft carrier battle group, the seventh Fleet aircraft carrier battle group. It was initially deployed at Yokosuka Port in Japan, and the Japanese military government moved to Busan Port in South Korea. After South Korea fell, it moved to Singapore and regarded Singapore as the most important military fortress of the United States in the Western Pacific. In order to control the Strait of Malacca, the US Navy even adjusted its strategic deployment and deployed more military forces in the loaned British territory of Diego Garcia, and set up a fleet headquarters in the Darwin Port in northwest Australia.

When I arrived in front of the Killer Whale, I lived in the Indian Ocean. The Strait of Malacca was filled with gunpowder.

Through years of construction, the US military not only deployed a daunting military force in Singapore, but also laid the world's most advanced submarine submarine detection network in the Strait of Malacca. It is precisely this way that the Republic's Navy had to find another way and use the Sunda Strait as the main channel to enter the Indian Ocean. Sometimes, submarines heading to the Indian Ocean for combat missions had to detour the Lombok Strait to avoid the US submarine lurking near the Sunda Strait.

Zhang Xuefeng is not only brave enough, but also confident enough.

Before entering the Strait of Malacca, he asked the "Kill Whale" to reduce its navigation speed to 8 knots and advance northwest along the international commercial route.

As it turns out, the undersea sonar net laid by the United States has no effect on the "Druddle Whale".

To prove this, Zhang Xuefeng deliberately stayed a few more kilograms in the strait. When a thug sailed, he would definitely be full of ammunition and dragged the sonar detector into the boat through a torpedo tube. This move did not cause him trouble, and also made him a great contribution, because the Republic's navy, intelligence departments, and scientific research institutions were in need of a physical object to study the US anti-submarine system.

When passing through the Strait of Malacca, the "Kill Whale" also gained other gains, such as discovering an attack submarine from the US Seventh Fleet, and simulated attacks on the US aircraft carrier battle group heading to Singapore, and even "attacked" Singapore's military targets with uncarried ground cruise missiles according to actual combat standards.

On July 1, the "Drud Whale" quietly passed through the Strait of Malacca and arrived at the East Indian Ocean.

Zhang Xuefeng didn't know that all the Republic's Navy was mobilized and six aircraft carrier battle groups were rushing to the battlefield.

As before, after the Orca Whale arrived between the Andaman Sea and the Andaman Islands and the Malay Peninsula, it immediately searched for suspicious targets nearby and carried out simulated attacks on Indian military facilities on the Andaman-Nicobar Islands according to combat standards.

It was just at this time that the "Drud Whale" encountered the Indian Navy's paint boat for the first time.

What surprised Zhang Xuefeng a little was that what he encountered was not the conventional mail submarines that were often active in the Andaman Sea, but the most advanced fully electric attack submarines introduced by the Indian Navy Network from the United States. You should know that these submarines used to be mostly active in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea, and rarely entered the Andaman Sea.

This discovery made Zhang Xuefeng smell bloody.

The Indian Navy's submarine entered the Andaman Sea, with its target aiming directly at the Strait of Malacca. There is no doubt that this is an offensive deployment.

Why do we need to deploy offensively?

The Indian Navy cannot be prepared for the US Seventh Fleet deployed in Singapore, and its opponent must be the Republic Navy!

That night, a new order from the Submarine Command confirmed Zhang Xuefeng's speculation that all the carrier battle groups of the Republic's Navy went south and were on their way to the Indian Ocean. The "Kill Whale" carried out a forward-sea mission.

If it were other captains, they would definitely bite the Indian submarine that appeared in the Andaman Sea.

Zhang Xuefeng did not have this round and the most straight-minded sentence, and he said it was so timid, because he noticed the keywords in the tattoo command!

For submarines, "sea control mission" is a scientific name, which was generally called "free hunting." In other words, submarines need not only to deal with enemy submarines, but also to enemy fleets. For captains like Zhang Xuefeng, it is no longer attractive to deal with a few small fish and shrimps in the sea. What he wants to deal with is the steel monster on the sea.

Of course, this short combat order contains more content.

The Navy's aircraft carrier battle groups were all out, and the Navy's Navy must have "a whole family mobilization"

Shanxi Super aircraft carrier, three medium-sized aircraft carriers, dozens of large surface warships, can make any pound. Ambitions are slightly salivating. Although Zhang Xuefeng did not drool after reading the order, his idea was exactly the same. Even if he could only kill the thug aircraft carrier, Zhang Xuefeng would become the super ace captain after Zihua Jianfeng, Du Xinghua and Liu Haifeng, not to mention that the Indian Navy had broken super aircraft carriers. You must know that after World War II, no aircraft carrier built by the United States was sunk in the naval battle.

As for the Indian submarines entering the Andaman Sea, Zhang Xuefeng didn't care at all.

Not to mention the "Drut Whale", just thug the "Dolphin" class submarines, you can easily kill those Indian submarines. Besides, the aircraft carrier battle group includes attack submarines that serve anti-submarine escort missions, as well as anti-submarine patrol aircraft and anti-submarine frigates. The performance of Indian submarines is not yet advanced enough to easily break through several anti-submarine networks of the aircraft carrier battle group, so there is no need to worry about the aircraft carrier battle group that is about to enter the Indian Ocean.

After throwing away the small fish and shrimps, the "Drud Whale" turned to the strait between the Nicobar Islands and Sumatra Island in the Gret Strait.

Without more information, Zhang Xuefeng must rely on experience and intuition to find fighter jets.

The Indian Navy sent submarines into the Andaman Sea, indicating that the Indian Navy believed that the Republic's aircraft carrier battle group could enter the Indian Ocean from the Strait of Malacca. However, there were not many Indian submarines reaching the Andayan Sea, and there were no large surface warships. From this, it can be concluded that the Indian Navy's aircraft carrier battle group could only appear in two places. One was the Andaman and the Bay of Bengal to the west of the Nicobar Islands, and the other was the East Indian Ocean south of the Nicobar Islands. If the Indian fleet appeared in the former sea, indicating that the Indian Navy hoped to use the Andaman Nicobar Group to Uu barrier to fight the Republic's fleet. If the Indian fleet appeared in the latter sea, it indicates that the Indian Navy believed that the Republic's fleet would enter the Indian Ocean from the Sunda Strait and prepare to fight the Republic's fleet in the waters south of Sumatra.

Based on this analysis, Zhang Xuefeng made the decision to walk through the Gret Strait.

If the Indian fleet is active in the Bay of Bengal, the "Druddle Whale" can wait for an opportunity after arriving in the southwest waters of the Nicobar Islands, or take the initiative to go north to find the Indian fleet. If the Indian fleet has reached the waters near Sumatra, the "Druddle Whale" can launch a sudden attack from behind when the Indian fleet attacks the Republic fleet.

This voyage is not far away. On the evening of July 10,000, the "Drud Whale" arrived at the western end of the Gret Strait.

After resetting the patrol route, Zhang Xuefeng decided to wait patiently for the opportunity.

When he was Liu Haifeng's deputy, Zhang Xuefeng's main trick was to set patrol routes for submarines, and his ability to find fighter jets was very outstanding. It can be said that Liu Haifeng was able to become the captain with the most fruitful results of the Republic's Navy since Hua Jianfeng, and he had a great smile with Zhang Xuefeng's assistant.

For any young man, patience is an essential basic quality.

It was not until the early morning of July that the passive sonar of the "Drucian Whale" received "obvious noise" from thousands of meters away from the "Miang concubine".

It is very precise, not the noise made by merchant ships, but the noise made by large warships.

Several people say, Xiaoxiaoki.

Zhang Xuefeng did not hesitate and immediately allowed the submarine to rise to the depth of the periscope. He used the laser communication system to send the message to the military communication satellite that was traveling in space. It took less than half a minute to send tactical intelligence. Without the notice of the Indian fleet, the "Druddle Whale" returned to the cruise depth of more than 0 meters.

If it were another captain, he would definitely bite it immediately and find an opportunity to kill three medium-sized aircraft carriers.

Zhang Xuefeng did not do this, not because he looked down on the medium-sized aircraft carrier, but because he believed that there were big fish behind him.

Since being shocked by the three super aircraft carriers of the United States, the Indian Navy has deployed three medium-sized aircraft carriers purchased from the United Kingdom to the Western Fleet. Let the three super aircraft carriers be the leader in the Eastern Fleet. By doing so, we can focus on the various channels of the East Indian Ocean, posing the greatest threat to the Republic fleet that may enter the Indian Ocean at any time, and can also reduce the difficulty of logistics support and reduce military expenditure.

There is no doubt that the western Indian fleet, with the wrinkled medium aircraft carrier as the core, came directly from the south of Sri Lanka and did not enter the Bay of Bengal. The purpose of the fleet is also clear: to go to the waters near Sumatra and intercept the Republic fleet that is about to enter the Indian Ocean from the Sunda Strait.

Does the Indian Navy have a chance of winning by using 3 medium-sized aircraft carriers against 6 large aircraft carriers?

Even if the shore-based fighter jets deployed in Andaman-Nicobar Islands can participate in fleet air defense operations. Move medium-sized aircraft carriers to dispatch up to thugs. The standard allocation of escort fighters and attack aircraft is more than 2, the anti-ship missiles carried by the Tianjia fighter can only be used to attack the Republic fleet consisting of 6 aircraft carriers, air defense cruisers, multi-purpose destroyers and old ocean frigates. Even if the long-range patrol aircraft deployed in Andaman-Nicobar Islands participate in the attack and increase the power of anti-ship missiles, the total number of pity is

Anti-ship missiles cannot completely defeat the Republic's fleet. And six aircraft carriers can ensure the fleet's air defense, "the fighter jets are dispatched at the same time, and the fighter jets are still pressing to attack Ren Cheng, so they can use anti-ship missiles to deal with the Indian fleet in one attack. The Indian fleet consisting of three aircraft carriers, three air defense cruisers, six multi-purpose destroyers and anti-submarine destroyers cannot block so many anti-ship missiles, and it is impossible to ensure its own safety while attacking the Republic's fleet.

There is no doubt that the other three aircraft carriers of the Indian Navy are nearby.

The question is here, where are the three "Nimitz-class aircraft carriers?

The home port of the eastern Indian fleet is Visakhapatnam. After the fleet sets off, it first enters the Bay of Bengal and then goes to the battlefield. The combat radius of the First Four fighter aircraft carried on the aircraft carrier is the thug. It is 1,000 kilometers. If it is supported by a tanker, the combat radius is close to 10,000 kilometers. If it goes to the airport on the Andaman-Nicobar Islands when it returns, the attack distance can be extended to about 4,000 kilometers. Of course, the prerequisite for this is that command and guidance forces must be arranged for the attack aircraft fleet when it goes to, otherwise the attack aircraft fleet will not be able to accurately reach the battlefield.

Just look at the map and you will know that the straight-line distance between Port Blair and the Sunda Strait is 1,000 kilometers.

India only needs to deploy approximately large tanker aircraft in the Andaman-Nicobar Islands to allow fighters on the Whip Super aircraft carrier to go to the Sunda Strait to attack the Republic's fleet. There are two prerequisites: one is that the attack aircraft group cannot get the cover of the escort fighter aircraft and can only replenish fuel at most. The three aircraft carriers can dispatch fighters to perform attack missions at one time. The other is that the aircraft group must enter Indonesian airspace and if bypass Indonesian airspace, the round-trip flight distance will exceed 1,000 meters, exceeding the maximum range of 4 hoes.

Zhang Xuefeng knew this clearly.

The three medium-sized aircraft carriers in front will definitely not participate in the attack operation, but will use carrier-based fighters to provide cover for fighters on the super aircraft carrier. The carrier-based early warning aircraft uses the tilt rotary wing early warning aircraft to guide the targets of the attack aircraft sent by the super aircraft carrier. Shi Si's stealth ability is very excellent. Indonesia does not have a decent air defense system. Sumatra is an "remote area" of Indonesia's Indian fighter jets can "do not cause international disputes" without "more importantly, Indonesia's relations with the Republic are tepid, and it is very likely to turn a blind eye and deliberately let Indian fighters pass through its airspace.

In this way, the Eastern Indian Fleet was the main attack mission.

So, where will the Eastern Indian fleet be?

Zhang Xuefeng made a judgment without spending much effort. After dispatching carrier-based fighters according to the maximum attack capability, each aircraft carrier was left with only one squadron carrier-mounted carrier-based fighter, barely enough to meet the fleet's air defense. Because the attack aircraft group does not have to return to the aircraft carrier when returning, the Whip Super aircraft carrier can dispatch air defense fighters at the maximum frequency. In this way, the eastern Indian fleet only needs to solve one problem: anti-submarine.

With the anti-submarine strength of the Indian fleet, if you want to deal with the Republic's submarines that may appear at any time, you must rely on the docking base force.

Because the power resources of the deployment of tankers at the Andaman-Nicobar Islands occupies three times that of fighter jets, and perhaps long-range patrol aircraft can carry anti-ship missiles for attack missions, the only ones that can be deployed to Andaman-Nicobar Islands can be shore-based anti-submarine helicopters or tilted rotary wing anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Although these anti-submarine forces still seem a bit insignificant, India can use long-range anti-submarine patrol aircraft deployed on the local area. Because long-range anti-submarine patrol aircraft can easily fly over the Bay of Bengal and perform anti-submarine patrol missions for more than 6 hours in the waters west of Andaman-Nicobar Islands, the eastern Indian fleet is likely to be close to Andaman-Nicobar Islands, extending the patrol time of shore-based anti-submarine helicopters and tilted rotary wing anti-submarine patrol aircraft.

With very limited tactical intelligence in hand, Zhang Xuefeng still made such an accurate tactical judgment.

It is also true that the "Drud Whale" took the initiative to leave the Indian fleet on the morning of July Blade and turned north.

It’s not that Zhang Xuefeng is greedy for merit, but that he must do so.

The super carrier can dispatch thugs and attack aircraft. When the three medium-sized aircraft carriers send more escort fighters, they can still dispatch approximately attack aircraft. In addition, the long-range patrol aircraft deployed in the Andaman-Nicobar Islands, the Indian Navy can use the near-Che anti-ship missiles in a round of attacks, and the aircraft carrier battle group with large axil aircraft carrier as the core has the air defense force at most intercepts the fierce missiles at the same time. Besides, the madman Hua Jianfeng is likely to come up with some novel tactics ingeniously, which puts the aircraft carrier battle group under greater threats.

In any case, the three super aircraft carriers must be killed as soon as possible, at least to prevent them from launching the attack smoothly.

Although the "Druddle Whale" turned north and missed the "contact plane" that arrived, it did not miss the latest combat orders sent by the Submarine Command.

After receiving the order from Liu Haifeng, Zhang Xuefeng's head was three times bigger.

The reason is simple, and the Navy Command decided to annihilate the western Indian fleet first.

Although the "Drut Whale" can pursue the Western Indian fleet at a speed of 1000 or even higher, when he received the order, the "Drut Whale" had been separated from the Western Indian fleet for nearly 8 hours. If he did not turn immediately, the "Drut Whale" would definitely miss the night battle unless it uses an anti-ship missile with a range of more than 1,000 meters.

Go south to join the war, or continue to go north?

Zhang Xuefeng must make a decision as soon as possible and choose between "realistic interests" and "risk gambling".
