Ji Feng soon set up his own forward command in Paris, and for this operation, the navy dispatched the "Bismarck", the just-completed "Tirpitz", the heavy cruiser "Prince Eugen", the aircraft carrier "Count Zeppelin", fifty submarines and thirty-two destroyers \ light cruisers, in addition to the naval aviation also has a large number of long-range fighters and long-distance bombers under Ji Feng's dispatch. The Air Force transferred some of the F2 fighter-bombers and HE177 that had just been built to Ji Feng, which is a long-range strategic bomber with four BDB801B engines.

Ji Feng now has most of the capital ships, all the aircraft carriers and escort ships in his hands, and now, this naval battle is already a huge gamble with the operation of the country as the bet.

Ji Feng first used the Enigma cipher machine to send a report to his troops: "In order to strengthen the level of business in bad weather, it seems that I rabbits say so, lift anchor and enter the sea route to conduct a military exercise near Narvik, and the capital ships will conduct a confrontation drill at that time." ”

Then, in fact, the ships were ordered to dock seventy nautical miles from the coastline after leaving the port and wait, and the submarine force carried out reconnaissance.

In fact, Ji Feng's plan is to get his two aircraft carriers back, and now his aircraft carrier is right on his own route, as for the submarine, it can be placed on the bottom of the sea first, and it will not rust anyway.

Ji Feng set the flagship on the heavy cruiser "Prince Eugen", this heavy cruiser belonged to the five major auspicious ships of World War II, and his luck was even better than Xuefeng or something.

After the completion of the modernization of the "Prinz Eugen", the anti-aircraft firepower was greatly enhanced, and the main gun was modified to three triple 254 mm main guns, arranged in the front two rear and one knapsack. As for the second turret in the back, it was dismantled and replaced with a gun-aiming radar and anti-aircraft fire guidance radar, which can be regarded as a secret weapon.

The four 533-mm torpedo tubes were removed and replaced with six twin-mounted 88-mm secondary guns, and although there was no heavy assault weapon such as torpedoes, there was heavy anti-aircraft fire within 10,000 meters.

The heavy anti-aircraft guns were all removed, a large pile of 40 mm or 20 mm anti-aircraft guns were stuffed, and the carrier-based aircraft were replaced by Gale Temporae Reconnaissance, which was one size larger than the Zero Water Reconnaissance, with 200 depth charges and 20 torpedoes in reserve.

The voyage was divided into several sub-fleets: a battleship sub-flotilla, two battleships plus six escort destroyers; a submarine flotilla, with fifty submarines, responsible for reconnaissance and sneak attacks; aircraft carrier fleet, one fleet aircraft carrier plus six escort destroyers; Cruiser detachment, one heavy cruiser, three light cruisers and seventeen destroyers.

Don't underestimate the destroyers, these ships are small, have few members, and are less expensive, but they have a very strong lightning strike ability. A 533-mm heavy torpedo is simply a death at the touch of a ship below a heavy cruiser, and two or three rounds can even sink a battle cruiser, and five or six rounds can sink a battleship.

The lightning strike fleet led by the auspicious ship has to get a good score even if it doesn't get a good score. At the same time, the United Kingdom.

"Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Turing has deciphered a plan for the movement of German troops." A Churchill adjutant came in to report.

"Let him in." In the past few days, Churchill is thinking about how to calm the hearts of the people at home, and now the expeditionary force is in the hands of the Germans, and once the Germans let them braided their hair on a large scale, then their position as prime minister will definitely not be guaranteed.

"Your Excellency, after our team's cracking, we have discovered that the main naval force of the Germans will go to the North Sea for a military exercise under the leadership of General Lütjans, and as before, they have put the waypoints in the route in the telegram." Turing walked in, excitedly waving a little newspaper in his hand.

"Really," Churchill was a little incredulous.

After some psychological struggle, Churchill finally chose to send some warships to intercept them, preferably to be able to completely annihilate the German capital ships at sea.

The battle cruiser "Hood" Hood class and the battleship "Prince of Wales" George V class will serve as the battle cruisers; The battleship "Nelson" Nelson-class, the battleship "Rodney" Nelson-class, the battleship "George V" George V-class, the aircraft carrier "Brilliant" Tejas class, the aircraft carrier "Dreadnought" Tejas class, the aircraft carrier "Indomitable" Tejas class, the escort carrier "Giant" Giant-class and a total of nine escort ships served as the battlefleet; The heavy cruiser "Kent" Kent class, the heavy cruiser "Suffolk" Suffolk class, the heavy cruiser "London" London class, the heavy cruiser "Devonshire" London class, the heavy cruiser "Norfolk" Norfolk class and seven light cruisers served as the cruiser fleet.

Ji Feng looked at the enemy compilation list that Lu Teyans had given him, and said with a wry smile: "The British have really made a lot of money, they took out so many capital ships at once, and even their little friend Prince of Wales, who had just been launched, brought over. ”

After thinking for a while, Ji Feng said, "The closest thing to us now that is most likely to engage us is the battle cruiser fleet, and these two ships should not be underestimated. But it's not easy for their battlefleet to have aircraft carriers, and they've sent three fleet carriers and one escort carrier, so we can't completely annihilate their carriers with the Count Zeppelin alone. So we need to attract their carriers to the shore now and let shore-based bombers bomb them. And we also have to dodge their battlefleets and attack their cruisers with our battleships and cruisers. Their heavy cruisers are treaty-type heavy cruisers, and compared to ours, their heavy cruisers have about the same firepower, but this protection is too poor. That's where we break through. ”

The fleet soon reached the North Sea, and Ji Feng ordered his aircraft carrier aircraft to take off to search for enemy ships and wait for the opportunity to bomb.

Soon, a dive bomber from the aircraft carrier's reconnaissance squad delivered good news, and the battle cruiser fleet was spotted

Ji Feng slapped his leg and led the "Bismarck" and "Prinz Eugen" to challenge their battle cruisers.

According to Ji Feng's intelligence, the British's follow-up fleet was at least three hundred nautical miles away from the battle cruiser, and as long as the battle was resolved within three hours, it would not be surrounded.
