Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 407
"Your Excellency, Commander, the Glory is accelerating, and their maximum speed has reached 30 knots. In this case, we may not be able to catch up."Captain Joachim is very worried.
Among the two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet, the HMS Glorious aircraft carrier is more powerful. It not only has a larger displacement, faster speed, and carries more carrier-based aircraft. Even in terms of self-defense weapons , is also stronger.
If you have to choose one, the Third Reich Navy naturally hopes to kill the aircraft carrier Glorious rather than the Eagle aircraft carrier.
Of course, if both aircraft carriers can be eliminated, then naturally Couldn't be better
"How many escort warships are there in the Mediterranean Fleet's aircraft carrier formation? asked Maj. Gen. William Folkes.
"Your Excellency, Commander, they don't have many escort warships, only four destroyers. It should be a Horde-class destroyer. The aircraft carriers Eagle and Glorious were each protected by two destroyers." said Colonel Joachim.
"very good! In this case, we should be able to keep both of their aircraft carriers!"Rear Admiral William Fulkes had a smile on his face.
The Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet concentrated a large number of warships on the main fleet, preparing for a decisive battle with the main fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar Navy. This also gave the Third Reich Two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers create a rare opportunity
"Dunkirk and Strasbourg pursued the Eagle aircraft carrier with all their strength. The remaining two M-class light cruisers and four X-class destroyers pursue the glorious aircraft carrier! This time, we're going to kill them all!"Major General William Folkes ordered
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"Colonel Joachim immediately understood the intention of Rear Admiral William Fulkes.
The maximum speed of the Eagle aircraft carrier is only 24 knots. After the speed of the Dunkirk-class battlecruiser accelerated to 29 knots, it only took half an hour. At the same time, the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers can fire at it.
Once it hits, it will be easily severely damaged or even sunk.
Although the speed of the Glorious aircraft carrier is as high as thirty knots. However, M The maximum speed of the M-class light cruiser is as high as 36 knots. The maximum speed of the X-class destroyer is as high as 39 knots or even 40 knots.
Soon, these M-class light cruisers and X-class destroyers will be able to catch up with the aircraft carrier Glorious.
Although, the Glorious The aircraft carrier has a displacement of nearly 30,000 tons, and also has extremely powerful self-defense firepower. It is equipped with 16 10mm high-level and horizontal guns, as well as a large number of anti-aircraft guns.
However, for M-class light cruisers and X destroyers, such The self-defense firepower is simply not enough.
Although the displacement of the M-class cruiser is only seven, it is equipped with three triple 150mm naval guns and four 105mm high-level cannons. The displacement of the X destroyer is only a thousand tons. But it is equipped with three triple-mounted 105mm naval guns and a 88mm anti-aircraft gun.
The firepower that hit two M-class light cruisers and four X destroyers was enough to suppress the aircraft carrier Glorious. Even if it is difficult to sink it, But at least it can be damaged.
As long as it is severely damaged, especially if its power system is damaged, then the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers can be towed to catch up. At that time, with Dunkirk The 330mm main gun of the Dunkirk-class battlecruiser can easily destroy the aircraft carrier Glorious.
After the battle plan was determined, Major General William Fulkes immediately issued the battle order.
Two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers It rushed towards the USS Eagle aircraft carrier at high speed. Two M-class light cruisers and four X-class destroyers frantically pursued the USS Glory aircraft carrier.
"By the way, send a telegram to the Caesar Kingdom Navy and let them hold back the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet. Or move closer to us. After we take care of the two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet, we will reinforce them!"Major General William Folkes ordered
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"Colonel Joachim nodded.
On the battlefield between the Caesar Kingdom Navy and the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet, the eight capital ships of both sides were fighting fiercely.
But judging from the situation on the battlefield, even if the Caesar Kingdom Navy has two The latest Veneto-class battleship in service was not able to take advantage of the naval battle. On the contrary, it was suppressed due to the drag of the battleship Caio Durio and the battleship Giulio Caesar. Once these two ships If the old battleship is sunk, the two Veneto-class battleships will fall into the unfavorable situation of being besieged.
This makes Admiral Paul, commander of the Caesar Kingdom's naval fleet, very angry. He hopes that the two Dungeons of the Third Reich will The Kirk-class battlecruisers were able to appear in time to help them reverse the situation and defeat the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet with absolute superiority.
However, the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers of the Third Reich failed to appear.
"Your Excellency, Commander, telegram from the Navy of the Third Reich."Reported by Lieutenant General Armando
"oh? Where are they? How long will it take to arrive?"Admiral Paul asked
"Your Excellency, Commander, I'm afraid they won't be able to catch up for a while. They were hunting two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet."Lieutenant General Armando said
"What? Were they going after a Royal Navy aircraft carrier? Damn it, don’t they know that the battle with the battleships of the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet is the most important thing?"Admiral Paul was very angry.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the Third Reich Navy claimed that they will arrive after they have eliminated the two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy. And, claiming we can move closer to them. Lieutenant General Armando continued.
"hateful! Not only do they not come to help us, but they also order us?"Admiral Paul was very dissatisfied.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. The Cayo do Rio and the Giulio Caesar were barely able to hold on. Otherwise, we withdraw from the battle and move closer to the Third Reich Navy. Let's wait until they arrive before attacking the main fleet of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet."Lieutenant General Armando suggested.
General Paul's face became very ugly.
"No, no need to bother. The Cayo do Rio and the Giulio Caesar continued to hold up the Royal Navy's two Queen Elizabeth-class battleships. Our two Veneto-class battleships step up their attacks. If we can severely damage or even sink the two Revenge-class battleships of the Royal Navy, the situation can be reversed!"Admiral Paul seems very stubborn.
