Imperial Overlord

In the humming cabin as the engine turned, the German pilots who participated in the real battle for the first time were excitedly discussing their first battle. Pen @ Fun @ Court www. biqUgE. info

"I heard that the enemy's fleet can't see the edge at a glance, maybe we can achieve great results." The novice sitting in the navigator's position said curiously.

The German pilot who was driving the plane forward nodded. He also communicated with his seniors before he came out to perform the mission: "There is no air defense firepower. He said that it is similar to heaven."

"This is the first time I've heard how someone describes the battlefield." The navigator said with a smile, fiddling with the self-defense machine gun in front of him, shooting backwards.

"Yeah! It's the first time I've heard someone say that." The driver nodded and smiled to hide his nervousness.

"Keep covering each other for a while! One plane dives to attack, and the other plane follows and covers! It's the same as during normal training." In the radio earphones, the frontline commander urged each of his subordinates.

"Just like in normal training, we entered the attack route, then slowed down at the lowest point, and dropped torpedoes..." As the plane bumped slightly, a pilot muttered something.

Another pilot is also reviewing his homework, hoping that he will not forget something because of nervousness when he attacks.

In the temporary combat meeting just held, the first batch of commanders briefly introduced the details of the battlefield.

He used a lot of words to describe, for example, the speed of the enemy's ships was very slow, more than five times slower than the standard when they were trained.

According to him, those British transports had a speed of a few knots, almost as little as a stationary target.

At that slow speed, the torpedo could easily hit the target, and the enemy ships didn't even have time to make any evasive moves.

In addition, the commander of the first attack batch also said that the opponent's transport ships had almost no anti-aircraft firepower, and the British destroyers that were covering were all on the periphery. As long as they were careful, they would not be hit by bullets.

He said it so well that he couldn't believe his ears. It's like when the wolves are in a meeting, they say that there is a large piece of fat in front of them, and it can't run or struggle...

It's no wonder that the pilots cheered one by one, showing off to the nervous them how a huge ship they had just sunk.

If the enemy is really the same as what he said, then sinking such a target is indeed very easy. When you think about it, they seem to be cheering for such a goal.

"Seahawk 21! I really want to see something amazing," a pilot reminded his frontline commander, his voice trembling and nervous.

"Pay attention to your feet! Pay attention to your feet! The enemy's fleet!" Following his reminder, the front-line commander's warning sound came from the radio of Seahawk 21.

The previous attack echelon, the code name of the first naval carrier-based aircraft pilots, was a number like Seahawk 1. For the second batch of pilots, the number used is preceded by a 2 to represent the second batch.

These pilots looked at their feet, and then through the clouds, they saw the British Navy surface ships rushing forward.

"My God, their fleet is much bigger than ours." A reluctant German pilot sighed while looking at the British home fleet.

Because of the height, the size of the battleships they saw was very vague, but no matter how big or small these battleships were, the waves that were torn on the sea were churning and overflowing on the sea, which looked much more obvious.

At least 20 large and small warships are rushing towards the German fleet, which makes the pilots of the German Navy carrier aircraft lose the mood to talk and laugh all of a sudden.

"Whistling Lair...call Lair! A British fleet is between you and our target! At least 20, at least 20!" On the radio, the commander of the front line reminded the distant fleet.

They provided early warning, and most importantly, they didn't want them to have nowhere to go after attacking the enemy.

...

The sound of air defense alarms sounded irritably in the cabin of the British Home Fleet. Several battleships were protecting three aircraft carriers, and they were speeding on the sea.

Admiral Tom S.V. Phillips looked up, looking at the slightly lonely dozens of planes, passing over the heads of the British fleet in the high clouds.

He narrowed his eyes, praying that these planes could suddenly dive down and attack his fleet.

Unfortunately, in the sound of the siren, these German planes did not mean to rush down. They passed the British home fleet and flew further afield.

"The Germans didn't attack us!" An officer in charge of anti-aircraft artillery came over and saluted and reported behind Tom S. V. Phillips.

"Yes, I saw it." Phillips wanted to complain to his subordinates, saying that I was not blind - but he was not in the mood to complain now, nor did he teach his subordinates to think.

The German attack planes that flew over his head were obviously still going to attack the transport fleet. Even with the most conservative calculations, the transport fleet will suffer heavy losses after this wave of attacks.

The most conservative estimate of the two waves of attacks is that the British fleet will lose about 40 transport ships. The loss of these ships will almost make the British mainland unable to expose the blame.

The most terrible thing is that 40 large-tonnage transport ships were sunk, and even by January next year, the losses of these ships cannot be effectively compensated.

In other words, the ships were sunk, that is, sunk - there would be no more ships for the British to use, not even the United States to squeeze more aid ships to send the German navy heads...

"Maybe Charles is wrong...let the fleet spread out, maybe the Germans only have a chance to sink 40 ships..." Tom S.V. Phillips commented in a depressed manner.

Although the fleet was scattered, the British fleet could not be fully protected. But because of the different regions, the Germans will kill one or two of the fleets at most.

In comparison, if the fleet is not concentrated, the loss will not be more than the current situation - as far as the results are concerned, the method of concentrating the fleet this time seems to have no effect.

Of course, Phillips also knew this was an afterthought. Who knew that German carrier-based aircraft could have such a strong attack power before the fleet was concentrated?

"At least it proves that we are attacking in the right direction..." Phillips muttered as he drove other thoughts out of his head.

Seeing the German planes showed that the enemy fleet was on his course. Just let him seize the opportunity, and perhaps the threat of the German fleet will be solved once and for all.

It is a pity that this is his wishful thinking. He knows that the German fleet has a high speed. Even if he is passively avoiding the battle, the possibility that he can catch up with the opponent's battleship, block and sink multiple enemy ships is very low.

Germany, Berlin, inside the Chancellery's Office of the Führer.

The Navy's liaison officer walked to the Fuhrer's desk: "Victory! Fuhrer! The news just came that the navy is in a fierce battle with the enemy transport fleet."

"Oh? How's the situation?" Li Le put down the document and signed his name on the document.

Because he copied Hitler's signature countless times before the crossing, and he has been signing non-stop recently, the notes became more and more fluent.

Long Feifengwu, a standard Adolf Hitler's name, was signed on a periodic report on agricultural production.

Next to the official seal of the big seal, there is a signature of Hess and a signature from the Ministry of Agriculture. This document is very important, and the content is the planning of food production for the next year.

"General Lütjens sent back only one telegram...it said that the carrier aircraft had completed the mission alone and sank more than 20 British transports. We have no losses and are continuing the attack."

"Huh! Beautiful!" Li Le let out a sigh of relief after hearing the result of no loss, and then nodded: "He did a great job! It seems that we are one step closer to victory."

Hearing that the carrier-based aircraft made another great contribution, Li Le couldn't help but think of the new German aircraft carrier still in the dock - those are the real legacy left to Li Le by the Nazi Navy.

Four Hindenburg-class battleships, which started construction in 1939, have been ordered by Li Le to be converted into more practical aircraft carriers.

Because of the construction period, the two ships, the Hindenburg and Ludendorff, are currently being refitted~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and the other two battleships are still being built according to the standards of battleships.

Because of the lack of basic aircraft carrier design experience, the Hindenburg-class aircraft carrier has a displacement of more than 35,000 tons, but can only carry 80 carrier-based aircraft.

This loading standard is at least 20 lower than the same tonnage aircraft carriers of the United States and Japan. And according to the fate of the Shinano aircraft carrier, the survivability of this modified aircraft carrier is not as strong as that of a battleship.

If given a choice, Li Le would rather still build the Hindenburg-class battleship and let engineers design and build professional aircraft carriers.

But one is that the time is too late, and the other is that the German Navy really cannot squeeze out the steel to build more surface ships.

Just to maintain the current production, iron ore mining in Norway is already working overtime. To have more steel, at least until 41 years.

Just kidding, wait until 1941 to build a dedicated aircraft carrier. It is estimated that Germany has been using an aircraft carrier for 43 years. At that time, what use would two or three aircraft carriers be in the face of the U.S. Navy, which opened production ships?
