Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 410
"General, the Glory has been killed. Four of our X destroyers fired torpedoes at it. At least 24 533mm heavy torpedoes hit the Glorious."Captain Joachim looked excited.
The Eagle aircraft carrier was sunk by two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers, and the Glory aircraft carrier was sunk by a torpedo.
Their goals this time have been completed.
"Very good, order the fleet to return immediately and prepare to assist the Caesar Kingdom Navy. Hopefully, the Caesar Kingdom Navy can hold on."Rear Admiral William Fulkes said with a smile.
The two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet were solved. This is undoubtedly a big blow to the Royal Navy.
If it can assist the Caesar Kingdom Navy in the future, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet will If the four battleships are also killed, the Royal Navy's power in the Mediterranean will be completely eliminated. This will also be a heavy blow to the Royal Navy. Even the Empire on which the sun never sets cannot use the Mediterranean route..
And the war between the Iron Alliance and the Empire that the Sun Never Sets on the battlefield in North Africa will also be greatly affected by this. It will be very difficult for the Empire that the Sun Never Sets to win on the battlefield in North Africa.
"Yes, General! replied Colonel Joachim
"The Empire on which the Sun Never Sets actually did not equip its aircraft carriers with a strong enough escort force. Our destroyers used torpedoes to kill them, and that was what they asked for!"Rear Admiral William Folkes looked disdainful.
Indeed, the escort force of the aircraft carrier formation of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet is too weak. Each aircraft carrier is only protected by two destroyers. Such an escort force is simply It is so weak that it cannot be compared with the aircraft carrier formations of the Third Reich.
You must know that the configuration of the aircraft carrier escort force of the Third Reich is much stronger than that of the Royal Navy.
Every aircraft carrier has the same A large anti-aircraft cruiser, a heavy cruiser, two light cruisers and four destroyers form a formation. This gives the aircraft carrier a strong protective force even when it encounters an air attack. Even when it encounters an enemy's capital ship, It can be topped by heavy cruisers to buy time for the aircraft carrier to evacuate. The most important thing is that the aircraft carriers of the Third Reich are very fast, with a maximum speed of thirty knots. Even in this era, only a few capital ships can Catching up.
The Third Reich’s emphasis on aircraft carriers is definitely the highest in the world.
Even now, the main force of the Third Reich’s navy is still the battleship. There are only four Qibelin-class aircraft carriers. The second batch of four Qibelin-class aircraft carriers , is under construction.
However, Hess, the ruler of the empire, is not convinced. Aircraft carriers are the main force in future naval battles. The capital ships will eventually be sent to the bottom of the sea by carrier-based aircraft. Now these majestic ships are very likely to become The target of air defense and island bombing.
Therefore, the Third Reich Navy has been exploring the use of motherships.
Under the guidance of Hess, the Third Reich Navy has made many fewer detours.
The two Dunker's ships of the Third Reich The cruisers began to rush to join the main fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar's Navy.
On the battlefield between the main fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar's Navy and the main fleet of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet, the situation had further changed.
In the tragic battle, Julie The battleship USS O'Caesar has been sunk, and the battleship USS Caio Durio has also been severely damaged. In order to prevent the battleship from being sunk, Admiral Paul had to order the battleship USS Giulio Caesar to withdraw from the battle and return to the homeland Repair.
Fortunately, during this process, the battleships Veneto and Littorio performed very well. The battleship
Royal Sovereign was severely damaged and almost lost its combat effectiveness. Under the protection of the two destroyers, Withdrew from the battlefield, preparing to go to the Pharaoh's Kingdom for some repairs, and then take a detour back to the Empire of the Sun Never Sets for repairs.
Although this will take a long detour, after this battle, the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet will most likely lose sea control in the Mediterranean.. Naturally, it will be impossible for the Royal Sovereign to return to the mainland through the Mediterranean. In that case, once it is caught by the air force and navy of the Third Reich or the Kingdom of Caesar, the Royal Sovereign will be dead.
The battleship Determination also suffered Heavy damage. Two of the four 381mm main gun turrets were destroyed, leaving only half of the combat effectiveness. But even so, the battleship Determination continued to fight.
Now, the situation on the battlefield has changed to two Veneto-class battleships The battleships dealt with two Queen Elizabeth-class battleships and a Revenge-class battleship that had suffered heavy damage and was left with half its combat effectiveness.
The Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet seems to have a slight advantage. However, the advantage is not huge.
If the Caesar Kingdom Navy can seize this opportunity and once again severely damage a battleship of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet, it will be enough to close the gap again.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the Navy of the Third Reich reports that they have eliminated two aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet and are heading towards us. According to the current course and speed, it is estimated that they will be able to rendezvous with us in about two hours. Lieutenant General Armando reported.
Admiral Paul nodded:"Well, this is the best thing to say." It seems that it is a high probability that we will kill the main fleet of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet this time."
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander. At this point, the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet was doomed. After getting rid of them, the entire Mediterranean Sea will be ours! Vice Admiral Armando said excitedly.
However, Admiral Paul was not so optimistic.
After solving the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet, this enemy was indeed eliminated.
However, there are still powerful navies in the Mediterranean.
For example, the third Although the Imperial Navy currently only has two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers, the four Richelieu-class battleships being built by the Gallic Kingdom also belong to the Third Reich. Once these four Richelieu-class battleships are put into service, the The Three Reichs will have six advanced capital ships in the Mediterranean.
What's more, Vichy France also has four Guba-class battleships and three Bretagne-class battleships. Although these battleships have been in service for two years, It is an old battleship that is more than ten years old, but after modernization and modification, its strength cannot be underestimated.
And the strength of the Caesar Kingdom's navy is still too weak. Even if the other two Veneto-class battleships are in service, plus the Kaiser There are only five battleships in the fleet of the Kingdom of Caesar, including the battleship Jordolio.
It is still very difficult to say who will own the Mediterranean in the future._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
