Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 201
"Sir, do we really want to take this risk? So far in this battle, we have achieved extremely fruitful results. We killed three Royal Navy battlecruisers, two heavy cruisers, and a large number of merchant ships. Even if we return to China now, we will be treated like heroes."Lieutenant Colonel Sanger advised.
In his opinion, it is undoubtedly very risky to hunt down the aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy.
"Yes, Chief of Staff. We have indeed achieved great results. However, I think this is not enough. This time, we were able to successfully slip into the Atlantic Ocean. It was a lot of luck. If the Royal Navy is prepared next time, we won't have so many opportunities. Therefore, we must seize this opportunity and expand the results to the limit!"Colonel Fulkes said.
Lieutenant Colonel Sanger was silent, and he naturally knew this.
Once the Royal Navy strengthens the blockade of the Third Reich, unless the Third Reich Navy fights the Royal Navy head-on and defeats it. Otherwise, it would not be so easy for the surface warships of the Third Reich Navy to slip into the Atlantic Ocean again.
"Don't worry, Chief of Staff, there won't be too much danger in this operation."Colonel Fulkes looked very confident.
"According to the intelligence obtained, the aircraft carrier formation composed of two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy has only one heavy cruiser, three light cruisers, and six destroyers as escorts. As long as we get close and launch a surprise attack, they will be dead. Moreover, the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal and HMS Fury only have a total of ninety carrier-based aircraft. In previous battles, we have destroyed at least forty carrier-based aircraft. Among the remaining carrier-based aircraft, carrier-based fighter jets will also be deducted. There will be no more than thirty dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft that can pose a threat to us. If they send out a second wave of aircraft to attack us, we can seize this opportunity and shoot down some of their carrier-based aircraft. By then, the threats we face will be smaller."Colonel Fulkes said.
Lieutenant Colonel Sanger thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Well, sir, you've convinced me. I support your decision. However, you must promise me. Once in danger, you must retreat. Putting our own safety first." Lieutenant Colonel Sanger said
"Of course, preserving ourselves is the most important thing!"Colonel Fulkes was overjoyed.
Next, the battlecruiser Barbarossa began to turn slightly. In order to avoid being discovered by the Royal Navy, they needed to wait until they were completely free from the attack of its carrier-based aircraft before turning to kill a carbine.
Sure enough, in order to damage or even sink the three O-class battlecruisers of the Third Reich, the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation ignored the huge losses of carrier-based aircraft and still insisted on launching an attack. After the first round of attacks, two more rounds were launched A large number of carrier-based aircraft were dispatched to participate in the attack.
These carrier-based aircraft of the Royal Navy suffered heavy losses in the face of the Third Reich's fleet anti-aircraft firepower.
However, they did not achieve much results.
The two After each round of attacks, the three ships of the Third Reich were only hit by a few aerial bombs. As for the torpedoes, not a single one was hit.
The performance of the Swordfish torpedo attack aircraft was so bad that compared with the high-speed racing battlecruisers on the sea, It's very difficult. Not to mention its backward performance, it can be easily sunk.
"Calculating the number, the Royal Navy has less than twenty remaining carrier-based aircraft. Moreover, there are very few dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft, and they no longer pose a threat to us. Order the fleet to turn around immediately!"Colonel Fulkes ordered
"Yes, sir!" Lieutenant Colonel Sanger replied.
He also felt that the probability of success in hunting down the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation this time might be very high.
How much combat effectiveness does an aircraft carrier still have after losing its carrier-based aircraft? Once it is approached, If you were alone, you would be completely in a state of being tortured!
The battlecruiser Barbarossa, along with the light cruiser Cassel and two destroyers, immediately turned and headed straight for the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation.
Although, they did not We know the location of the Royal Navy aircraft carrier formation. However, we can probably judge the suspicious location through the direction of the carrier-based aircraft's incoming attack and the direction of retreat.
If we can find it, that would be the best.
If we find it If not, it won't have much impact, which proves that God is no longer on their side. The battlecruiser USS Barbarossa moved forward at high speed, and the air search radar was turned on at all times, monitoring the nearby airspace so that it could Discover the enemy's aircraft in time and avoid them as soon as possible.
At this moment, the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation, which had suffered heavy losses, did not realize that the crisis had come.
The Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation had lost more than seventy carrier-based aircraft, and there was not much left. The commander of the aircraft carrier group, Rear Admiral Richard, the captain of the Ark Royal, requested to return to the mainland to rest and receive carrier-based aircraft. However, he was opposed by the commander of the encirclement and suppression fleet, Admiral John Top.
He asked the aircraft carrier group to Continue fighting, at least take off carrier-based aircraft to search for the location of the Third Reich's break-up fleet, and provide intelligence support for the First and Second Squadrons of the Encirclement and Suppression Fleet. Rear Admiral
Richard had no choice but to accept the order.
And it was their This exchange of telegrams allowed the battlecruiser Barbarossa to determine the location of the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier group.
"Sir, according to radio monitoring analysis, the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation is about three hundred kilometers away from us. The two Nelson-class battleships are at least 450 kilometers away from us!"The radio officer replied
"Very good, go straight to the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation immediately. Pay attention to the Royal Navy's carrier-based aircraft and do not let them discover our whereabouts."Colonel Fulkes ordered
"Yes, sir!"The officer replied.
The battlecruiser Barbarossa once again raced on the sea, maintaining a speed of thirty knots.
In this way, they will be able to approach the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation in five hours.
At this moment , the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation did not realize that the crisis had arrived. At
12:15 noon, the battlecruiser USS Barbarossa reached the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier formation without any danger. A G on the periphery -class destroyer, after discovering the incoming battlecruiser Barbarossa, it immediately issued an alarm._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
