To tell the truth, Rutyans was very nervous, and his fleet was really likely to be bitten by the opponent's home fleet at this time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, as time passed, he never saw the fleets of British naval battleships rushing towards him on his radar.

The disappearance of the German fleet suddenly doubled the pressure on the commanders of the British Navy. Including Dudley? The British admirals, including Pound, were really messed up this time.

In any case, even if Germany had forced a breakthrough of the British naval blockade, the British top brass would not have been so shocked.

Because as long as they can follow the German fleet and enter the Atlantic Ocean together to create pressure on the other side, the other side will not be able to calmly go to the trouble of the transport fleet.

But now that the German ships had disappeared, it was impossible for the British fleet to keep a distance from the German fleet and prevent them from wreaking havoc on the route.

"How did it disappear? Could it be that the Germans really returned? "Churchill sat in his place and looked at Dudley in front of him? Pound, asked with a puzzled face.

In his opinion, no matter how the German Navy goes, there should be no chance of getting rid of the British fleet.

Dudley? Pound is the commander-in-chief of the Navy, and although he understands the specific operational aspects of the Navy, he still needs more professional people to carry out the bombs.

He looked at the general on the side, and the general quickly spoke: "The opponent's ship suddenly slows down or accelerates, and it will change our estimated position......

Seeing that the two bosses in front of him were not kind to each other, he opened his mouth and added: "Moreover, changing the route will also achieve the same purpose." ”

In his opinion, the German fleet had too many ways to get out of the British watch. After all, the other party has been out of surveillance for several hours.

The German navy's fleet had too many ways to adjust its position to avoid the British navy's search......

If the commander of the British Navy had commanded himself, as long as he stopped where he had been and waited, the British Navy might have thrown itself into disarray.

However, who would dare to guess that the German Navy stopped its ships and waited in place? Although this possibility exists, it is really a bit too bizarre.

Moreover, everyone knew that the German fleet was going to break through the British naval defense line and fight to the Atlantic. Stopping halfway through, it was clearly impossible to complete the task.

"Mr. Prime Minister...... Now all we can do is to broaden the search range of the reconnaissance planes and find a way to find the German fleet. "Dudley? The naval aviation general beside Pound opened his mouth to suggest to Churchill.

The fleet of the Germans could not be found, and of course the search radius had to be expanded. This can be said to be the most reasonable countermeasure, or it can be said that nothing has been said at all.

Churchill, who heard this suggestion, frowned, then nodded again and said, "That's it...... There's no good way to do it. ”

"Any news from the cruiser Dorsetshire?" Seeing that Churchill agreed to expand the search area, Dudley? Pound asked the officer beside him.

The officer next to him just got the news, otherwise Dudley? Pound wouldn't have asked him either. The officer looked at the telegram in his hand and replied, "No! They were rushing to the site of the sinking of the Norfolk. ”

"What a depressing day." Dudley? Pound couldn't stop the cruiser from rescuing the soldiers who had fallen into the water, and sighed helplessly.

The German Navy sank two Royal Navy cruisers and sailed away, leaving the surviving sailors of the two ships floating in the icy ocean.

The fate of the officers and men on these two cruisers was also different. Most of the officers and men on the cruiser Norfolk, who had abandoned ship very early, were now using inflatable rafts and lifeboats.

At the same time, a little further south, most of the officers and men of the cruiser Suffolk, which had been directly sunk by torpedoes, were immersed in the water.

At this moment, it was already November weather, the water of the Atlantic Ocean was bitterly cold, and the soldiers on the Suffolk had no survivors at this time......

They were not drowned, but frozen to death in the icy sea because of the rapid loss of body temperature. They were unlucky compared to the same sunken friendly forces in the distance.

In the German Wilhelm Military Port, Raeder, who rushed to the naval headquarters, was not having a good time now, thinking that the German naval fleet was enforcing strict radio silence, and he could not intuitively get the specific situation of the first-line fleet.

Unaware, he seemed very nervous. The huge pressure pressed on his shoulders, making him look a little sluggish.

"Marshal! No news is good news, and if we have a damaged warship, we will definitely report the news by radio. Standing beside him was another admiral.

Ever since the German Navy had produced a traitor, Canaris, who was discovered by the Führer, naval intelligence had been under Adrian's command.

The department has just confirmed a message claiming that Britain has not yet reported anything about the sinking of the German ship.

"I hope so...... This fleet is too important for us, it's all we have! So I can't tolerate any mistakes, and mistakes! Raeder said to the officer beside him with his hands behind his back.

"Since there is no large-scale engagement, it means that Lütjens has almost avoided the blockade of the British fleet......" Thinking in his mind, Raeder felt that he trusted his subordinate Lütjens more and more.

Now it seems that Lütjans is really an expert in maritime guerrilla warfare, and it is really a wise choice to ask him to direct this operation.

……

The location switches back to Naval Operations Command in London, England, Dudley? Pound realized that the Germans seemed to have really changed their speed and disappeared under the noses of the British naval fleet.

"If the German Navy slows down, then their current position should probably be farther away, right?" He asked the officer who knew the data.

The officer thought for a moment and drew a beautiful circle over the map with his pen: "Probably around here." ”

"Let the carrier-based aircraft reconnoiter this part, check it carefully, I will expel some areas as soon as possible, and guess the speed of the German fleet!" Dudley? Pound gave the order to reconnoiter another area.

In addition, he realized that the Germans could also speed up and increase their speed across the Danish Channel. So he also had to scout the area around Charles's fleet to make sure the enemy didn't slip away on his noses.

Charles also felt that the most likely scenario for him was that the German fleet had slipped through the eyes of the German-British fleet.

After all, the Germans were aiming for access to the Atlantic, and now might be the best time. Slowing down the carrier-based aircraft of the British fleet was not the best option for the two German aircraft carriers.

The commander of the German fleet was forced to make a choice, and it was estimated that eighty percent of them would speed up into the Atlantic - after all, it was a rare opportunity.

The British fleet sent too many carrier-based aircraft, and the two aircraft carriers, including the Fury and the Dreadnought, had already scattered all the carrier-based aircraft they could send out, but there was still no news of the German fleet.

At this time, Lütjans, on his own bridge, had already surpassed the British fleet, and it could be regarded as completing a frightening passing by.

Silently, the German fleet sailed past the British fleet, which was taking off planes and searching the sea behind Germany.

Fantasizing about the enemy's busy and helpless appearance, Lütjans's mood has never been better. He almost wanted to shout two words at the surface of the sea to express his refreshed mood now.

"In a few minutes, we can really shake off the British fleet." On the bridge of the USS Zeppelin, Ruetjens opened his mouth and boasted to Hines.

After showing off, he turned his head sideways and called out to the speed officer in the distance to increase the speed of the battleship: "Order the fleet to increase its speed and keep the fleet at 25 knots!" We are about to enter the Atlantic in the truest sense of the word, gentlemen! ”

The fleet entered the Atlantic intact, exactly as Li Le had originally predicted. The British Navy's inferiority in carrier-based aircraft gave the German Navy too much room for development.

Hines was also in a good mood, because in the vast Atlantic, the fleet had to rely more on his carrier-based aircraft to scout and find the enemy's transport fleet.

He looked at the FW-190T fighter jet on standby on the deck of the aircraft carrier below the island with satisfaction, and smiled happily.

These planes are all prepared by him to take off at any time and drive away the opponent's reconnaissance planes. I don't know if it's luck or regret, these planes have no chance to get out of the way, so they can only wait on the deck with peace of mind.

When he came to the quasi-Atlantic waters, Hines had to admit that Li Le's decision to temporarily replace the German aircraft carrier aircraft was very correct.

If this time it is the ME-109T fighter of the Messersmitt company that is brought, then whether it can take off in such sea conditions has become a question.

The turbulent Atlantic Ocean shook the USS Zeppelin aircraft carrier with a displacement of 30,000 tons, and there was no feeling of weakness.

The huge warship moved at full speed in the huge waves, and the waves from the bow of the ship could sometimes splash tens of meters high.

It has to be said that the harsh sea conditions in the Atlantic Ocean are a huge test for every ship that fights or sails here.

As the commander of the German naval aviation, Hines was glad that his pilots did not have to fly an aircraft like the ME-109T to take off and land in such sea conditions.
