Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 400
December 14, 1939, in the eastern Mediterranean.
The main fleet of the Caesar Kingdom Navy has arrived in this sea area.
Four battleships, guarded by a group of cruisers and destroyers, entered this sea area in a mighty manner.
Perhaps because it is possible to encounter the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet at any time, the entire fleet maintains extremely high vigilance. The air search radar and sea search radar are always on.
On the flagship battleship Veneto, Fleet Commander Admiral Paul and Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Armando were studying the charts.
"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the intelligence we have obtained, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet should be operating in the waters to the east of us. However, the Mediterranean is not small either in terms of bigness or smallness. It's not that easy to find them."Lieutenant General Armando said.
Admiral Paul nodded.
This time, he led the main fleet of the Caesar Kingdom's navy to go to war. The purpose was very simple, just to avenge the past.
Moreover, Admiral Paul also believed that this time the Caesar Kingdom The main fleet of the Navy has the ability to avenge its shame. Even if the performance of the battleship Caio Durio and the battleship Giulio Caesar is a little worse, the two Veneto-class battleships are the most cutting-edge battleships! And the Royal The four main ships of the Navy's Mediterranean Fleet are all old battleships that have been in service for more than 20 years. Even after modernization and modification, their shortcomings are still very obvious.
In this battle, the main fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar's Navy undoubtedly Have great advantages
"To find out the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet. It's actually very easy. The sun never sets on the Imperial Army, isn't it assembled at El Alamein, ready for a decisive battle with the Third Reich Army and our Army? Then let's attack Alamein directly. Bombard Alamein with large-caliber naval guns. By then, will the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet still be able to sit still?"A trace of ferocity flashed across Admiral Paul's face.
After the fleet went to sea, he had already thought of a way to force the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet out.
Lieutenant General Armando's eyes lit up:"Your Excellency, Commander, this is a good idea. Method. However, if we bombard El Alamein, we will most likely be attacked by the air force and carrier-based aircraft of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. And the air defense escort force we got is probably not that big."
"The sun never sets on the Imperial Royal Navy. It has no ability to attack the sea, so don't worry about it. The Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet only has two aircraft carriers and a maximum of seventy carrier-based aircraft. As long as we do a good job in air defense, they may not be able to cause us many casualties. What's more, I just received the news that the Third Reich Air Force has built a field airport in Tobruk. At the earliest, two field airports will be put into use in two days. At that time, we will be covered by dozens of Third Reich Air Force fighter planes."Admiral Paul has obviously considered this issue.
"Commander, if this is the case, then everything will be fine."Lieutenant General Armando said
"This time, we must defeat the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet and become the overlord of the Mediterranean!"Admiral Paul looked determined.
"Commander, I can succeed this time. Now is the time when the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet is at its weakest, and we will definitely be able to deal with them in one fell swoop. Lieutenant General Armando said.
Indeed, for King Caesar, now is undoubtedly their best chance to defeat the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet and become the overlord of the Mediterranean.
The Royal Navy, although powerful, was far more powerful than the Kingdom of Caesar's navy. However, the main force of the Royal Navy was restrained by the Third Reich Navy, and there was not much power that could be invested in the Mediterranean.
This gave the Caesar Kingdom's navy the opportunity to dominate the Mediterranean. Once the Royal Navy makes a comeback, they will have no chance at all. Of course, if the Royal Navy loses to the Third Reich Navy in the next decisive naval battle, they will have no power to invest in the Mediterranean.
It is a certainty that the Kingdom of Caesar’s navy will become the overlord of the Mediterranean.
"By the way, where are the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers of the Third Reich? is there any news?"Admiral Paul asked.
These two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers are also a very powerful force. They are even very likely to become the key force that determines the victory of this naval battle.
"Your Excellency, Commander, there is no news about them yet. However, according to previous contacts, they stated that they would definitely enter the eastern Mediterranean waters and join this naval battle."Lieutenant General Armando said.
Admiral Paul frowned, obviously dissatisfied with the attitude of the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers of the Third Reich.
In his opinion, the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers The cruiser should join their fleet at this time and act with them. In this case, they can fight with all their strength against the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet.
And their chance of winning will be much greater.
After all, six One battleship fought four battleships, and four of the battleships were all cutting-edge battleships. The advantage was entirely on their side!
"No matter, I hope they can arrive in time. We were able to win without their participation. However, the price we pay for their participation is much smaller after all."Admiral Paul said
"Yes, Commander! Lieutenant General Armando replied.
However, Admiral Paul and Lieutenant General Armando did not say much.
According to the agreement reached between the two countries, it was the Navy of the Kingdom of Caesar that fully cooperated with the Third Reich, not the Navy of the Third Reich that fully cooperated with them.
At two o'clock in the morning on December 17, the main fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar's Navy arrived at the sea off Alamein.
Four capital ships crossed the hull of the ship less than fifteen kilometers away from Alamein, and their huge main guns were aimed at Alamein.
Subsequently, the four battleships began to pour cannonballs on Alamein
"boom! boom! boom!"
The 381-meter main gun was angry, and heavy shells roared towards Alamein.
More than 20 seconds later, the shells hit the ground and exploded violently. A dazzling fire broke out, and black smoke It shot straight into the sky.
The sun never sets on the defenses built by the Imperial Army's 8th Army and 9th Army in El Alamein, which were easily destroyed by these large-caliber naval guns. The casualties were even more severe._Feilu Remind you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
