Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 434
"Your Excellency, Commander, the aircraft carrier formation was attacked wildly by the carrier-based aircraft groups of the Third Reich. Almost all aircraft carriers were severely damaged. Their situation is very bad and they are very likely to be destroyed."Lieutenant General Arthur Powell's face was very ugly.
Admiral Charles Forbes nodded. Although the carrier-based aircraft groups of the Third Reich did not attack their battleship formations. However, he could almost imagine what the aircraft carrier formations were facing now. crisis.
The attack intensity of the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft groups completely exceeded their expectations.
"It seems that the threat from carrier-based aircraft is greater than we imagined. We are in danger in this battle."Admiral Charles Forbes said.
The attack power displayed by the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft group made him frightened.
"Your Excellency, Commander, should we send some cruisers and destroyers to reinforce the aircraft carrier formation. The escort force of the aircraft carrier formation is still relatively weak now! Lieutenant General Arthur Powell said.
Admiral Charles Forbes hesitated, then shook his head:"If the escort force is deployed to reinforce the aircraft carrier formation." Then, the escort force of our battleship formation will be weakened. At that time, once our battleship formation is attacked by the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft group, our losses will be very heavy."
Lieutenant General Arthur Powell nodded.
At this time, the radar soldier reported that the air search radar discovered that a large number of carrier-based aircraft groups were approaching and were expected to arrive over the fleet in half an hour. Admiral
Charles Forbes and Arthur Powell The Vice Admiral's face became very ugly.
The Third Reich Navy once again dispatched a huge carrier-based aircraft group, which would undoubtedly pose a great threat to them.
"Order all ships to prepare for air defense. No matter what, we must resist the attack of the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft group!"Admiral Charles Forbes ordered.
He knew very well that if it could not withstand it, the fleet would probably have to pay a heavy price. By then, the Royal Navy might have completely lost this battle.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!" Lieutenant General Arthur Powell replied.
At this time, he would no longer mention sending battleships to reinforce the aircraft carrier formation. If he did so, half an hour later, the second wave of carrier-based aircraft groups of the Third Reich Navy would arrive. Then their battleships would The formation may suffer heavy losses.
"boom! boom! boom!"
The fierce battle continues, and the carrier-based aircraft groups of the Third Reich are still besieging the five aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Home Fleet. The attack will not stop until these five aircraft carriers are sunk.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The Royal Navy's anti-aircraft firepower continued to fire, using these powerful anti-aircraft firepower to withstand the attack of the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft groups. Even if their resistance was like a trapped beast fighting one after another, the Royal Navy did not give up easily.
Helmer The USS Sri Lanka aircraft carrier became the first silent aircraft carrier in this battle.
After being hit by six consecutive heavy air bombs and five heavy aviation torpedoes, this aircraft carrier with a displacement of only more than 13,000 tons could no longer withstand Because the hull was broken and too much water entered, it sank into the sea.
When the Hermes aircraft carrier was sunk, the other four aircraft carriers had also suffered heavy damage. The
Ark Royal aircraft carrier was already burning It stood up like a huge torch.
The flames spread to the cabin below the aircraft carrier until it ignited the oil tank.
After the heavy ship oil in the oil tank and the aviation fuel used by the carrier-based aircraft were ignited, an explosion occurred. The entire bottom of the hull was destroyed. At the same time, the fire spread to the entire aircraft carrier. The high-temperature flames even burned the steel plates and twisted them, let alone other things on the aircraft carrier.
The sailors on the aircraft carrier even more He hurriedly jumped into the sea in an attempt to escape.
In the fire, the aircraft carrier Ark Royal was completely destroyed. It was burned into a pile of broken scrap metal and sank into the sea.
The aircraft carrier HMS Courageous, although its displacement was as high as 27,000 tons.
But under the attack of the Third Reich's carrier-based aircraft, this aircraft carrier was already riddled with holes.
"Woo! Woo!"
The dive bombers were still dropping bombs, constantly dropping heavy aerial bombs on the already severely damaged aircraft carrier.
"boom! boom! boom!"
Explosions continued to sound on the USS Brave aircraft carrier, causing the aircraft carrier's injuries to continue to worsen.
"Oh, God! Is our aircraft carrier formation really going to be completely destroyed at the beginning of the war?"Lieutenant Admiral Cotton, Commander of the Royal Navy's Home Fleet Aircraft Carrier Group, watched as his aircraft carrier was continuously hit, then burst into flames, and then sank. His heart felt as if he was bleeding. First, the Hermes aircraft carrier was sunk. , followed by the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal was also sunk. Now, it is the turn of the aircraft carrier HMS Brave.
At this moment, the aircraft carrier Glorious and HMS Formidable have also suffered heavy damage and are being attacked by carrier-based aircraft of the Third Reich. Under this, the final struggle was carried out.
It can be said that the aircraft carrier formation of the Royal Navy's local fleet has been completely finished.
Even in the local shipyards, there are still five aircraft carriers under construction. The subsequent construction of ten Giant-class aircraft carriers The same has already begun. However, once the Royal Navy loses this crucial naval battle, I am afraid that the Empire on which the sun never sets will not be able to insist on the day when its local aircraft carriers are put into service!
"General, it's over, it's all over! The aircraft carrier formation is all finished!"An officer's face was filled with despair.
He saw that the aircraft carrier Brave had been slowly sinking into the sea due to severe damage and too much water.
The aircraft carrier Glorious and Formidable were also riddled with holes. In the sky, the carrier-based aircraft of the Third Reich were still launching attacks frantically. They used aerial bombs and torpedoes to send the aircraft carrier Glorious and Formidable into the sea.
Only half an hour after the battle began, Five aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy's Home Fleet aircraft carrier group were sunk. The carrier-based aircraft group of the Third Reich Navy only paid the price of more than 20 carrier-based aircraft being sunk.
And some of the remaining aircraft were sunk. Carrier-based aircraft also have bombs and torpedoes, which can be used together with the second wave of carrier-based aircraft groups to launch attacks on the main fleet of the Royal Navy's home fleet, further attacking the Royal Navy and weakening their strength._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Flying Lu novel APP
