Chapter 351: Long live the German Navy, long live the Führer
After only a short confrontation, the German American carrier-based aircraft group shot down more than 20 US carrier-based planes that were caught off guard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If the U.S. military hadn't immediately dispatched F4F Wildcat fighters, F4U Corsair fighters, and F6F Vixen Hellcat fighter groups to attack and support; I am afraid that the P2A-3 fighters, SB2-U3 reconnaissance-bombers, and SBD-2 dreadnought dive bombers and other planes of the US military are just sending sheep into the mouth of the tiger, sending the German pilots to the past, and making their Iron Cross Medal a little higher.
"How can this be, how can the Germans have our new carrier-based aircraft! Who sold our confidential weapons and equipment to Germany! ”
"And the Germans were able to secretly produce so many F4F Wildcat fighters and F6F Vixen Hellcat fighters without us knowing anything! It's incredible! ”
When he saw with his own eyes that Germany had used its own country's new carrier-based aircraft to shoot down many carrier-based aircraft, Rear Admiral Theobald was completely dumbfounded and muttered to himself with a bewildered face.
Even beside him, who also looked incredulous, and the confidential staff officer Midland, who was reporting on the battle damage, seemed to hear it clearly, and he was stunned alone.
"Major General Theobald! Do we want to call back our carrier-based aircraft group? The carrier-based aircraft groups of the Germans, are being withdrawn to their aircraft carriers! ”
Just when Major General Theobald was stunned because he was too shocked, Confidential Staff Officer Midland suddenly shouted at Major General Theobald in a loud voice.
"Call! Call our carrier-based aircraft back immediately, I want to think about the next battle, how to fight! ”
"In addition, I will report to Admiral Nimitz and President Roosevelt at once! Either our navy will be in danger, or even the game will be over! I absolutely cannot allow these traitors who have betrayed our state secrets to continue to live, this is really a terrible threat to the development and survival of our navy! ”
Major General Theobald, who was awakened by the other party, instantly responded loudly.
"Yes! Sir! ”
Looking at Major General Theobald, who had regained his fighting spirit, Confidential Staff Officer Midland also agreed solemnly.
After that, they didn't say anything more, but called all the naval officers, captains, and combat staff officers to the operations command room of the Saratoga aircraft carrier, and began an urgent combat meeting.
As for the confidential staff officer, Midland first had to send a telegram to Admiral Nimitz and President Roosevelt to report the German army's possession of the American F6F Vixen Hellcat fighter and ask for new operational instructions.
At the same time, the US fleet also set up a battle queue, and while widening the distance between it and the German fleet, it vigilantly monitored every move of the German aircraft carrier fleet.
Field Marshal Hitthofen was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth and eyes at the sudden shrinkage of the American troops and the avoidance of the war, and he was laughing and laughing with his officers excitedly, mocking the American soldiers.
"Hahaha! These U.S. troops are really afraid of death! It was only by our first wave of tentative attacks that he was frightened and did not dare to meet it again, and he also ordered his fleet to quickly distance itself from our aircraft carrier fleet! ”
"Looking at their nests, I'm so happy! Our German Navy has not been so excited for a long time, and we will definitely be able to win a good battle in this battle! Let those American fleets continue to tremble and fear the strength of our navy! Hahaha! ”
Looking at the American fleet, which was getting farther and farther away from his own fleet, Field Marshal Hitthofen laughed happily.
As long as he can see the German navy continue to grow, and let the enemy army be terrified and destroyed, he is very happy and excited.
Because he likes the German Navy, and for the German Navy, which has not won any major battles for a long time and is in decline, it can now not only have its own aircraft carrier fleet, but also a large number of battleships with strong combat effectiveness, and a new carrier-based aircraft group.
And as soon as the war began, it immediately shocked the US military, and was happy about such a good thing; How could he not be happy and excited about Field Marshal Hitthofen, who loved Germany?
However, when he was happy and satisfied, he was also very grateful in his heart, and marveled at Chen Yanlong's ability and means.
Because he really couldn't imagine what kind of method Chen Yanlong used to get so many new carrier-based aircraft, aircraft carriers, and ships.
If it weren't for Chen Yanlong, I am afraid that the war would have reached the final stage, and the German navy would probably have to rely entirely on submarines to fight.
Because the German fleet was not only gradually annihilated by the British and American fleets, but also because of the lack of information, they could not produce a large number of ships in a short period of time.
What's more, these ships and aircraft carriers, as well as new carrier-based aircraft, are simply money-burning things, if you want to have a large-scale fleet of such aircraft carriers; I'm afraid that the entire German Navy will be sold, and I don't know if it will be enough to make money.
"The marshal is right! The U.S. military is really vulnerable! Before we really attacked, they were scared of us! What a pity! We also want to use them to gain a little more practical experience! ”
As soon as the words fell, a combat staff officer named Grayler hurriedly echoed.
"Yes! I really can't imagine that they have so many ships and carrier-based aircraft, and they won't lose much to us depending on the scale! Backed down so quickly! ”
Another combat staff officer also immediately chimed in.
Subsequently, quite a number of officers hurriedly joined forces with the operational staff officers, causing a lot of noise and shouting in the entire operational command room.
"That's it! Everyone, be quiet, we're overjoyed now, it's time to calm down and get ready to fight! Since the U.S. troops are afraid of life and death and retreat, then we will be brave and launch a fierce attack on them! ”
"We can't let them just stop fighting and run away!"
"Because this is the first battle of our aircraft carrier fleet, and it is also the best time for our fleet to have the first actual battle, and a great opportunity to gain actual combat experience, I now order all carrier-based aircraft pilots to attack the enemy fleet in batches!"
"Actual combat is the fastest way for you to gain combat experience, go ahead! Give me the courage to fight! Long live the German Navy! Long live the Führer! ”
When everyone was most excited, Field Marshal Hitthofen immediately suppressed the voices of everyone with his hand, so that everyone stopped talking, and gave the battle order with a serious and sharp look.
"Yes! Field Marshal Hitthofen! ”
"Long live the German Navy! Long live the Führer! ”
"Long live the German Navy! Long live the Führer! ”
As soon as the words fell, all the German navies boiled and shouted loudly.
Not long after, more than 200 new carrier-based aircraft, F-8D, took off from the Midway aircraft carrier, which was personally commanded by Field Marshal Hitthofen.
And with the most ferocious momentum, they attacked the US fleet, which was opening up the combat distance.
