In fact, Marcos was still not satisfied with sending only one battleship to him to command the operation, although he was only the captain of a destroyer now, but he just thought that he could get a small fleet, or even a large aircraft carrier fleet, to give him command of the operation.

Of course, this is also just his utopian fantasy, thinking that if he wants to command a fleet in reality, or the commander of an aircraft carrier fleet, I am afraid that he will not be able to be an officer of a small destroyer with such a high heart as he is now.

Otherwise, how can those high-ranking officers who are more senior, have strong backgrounds, and have rich combat experience be convinced?

So after returning to reality, Marcos, who was in a displeasure, hurried to his assigned battleship to follow the aircraft carrier fleet to prepare to meet the German aircraft carrier fleet.

At this time, the German submarine forces were also scattered in all directions, divided into groups and surrounded the British and American fleets one after another, preparing for a surprise attack.

But for the British and American forces, their aircraft carrier cordon fleet also has 1 light aircraft carrier, 8 cruisers, and 6 destroyers deployed on the line.

The lineup of the German army they were about to face was 3 fast battleships, 3 heavy cruisers, 13 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier.

The Anglo-American destroyer fleet, which was sailing at a speed of 24 knots, was still ignorant of this.

At this time, the German naval air force had also annihilated all the British and American reconnaissance aircraft and fighter units they encountered, and there was not a single one left.

Although the number of British and American planes shot down and sunk was not very large, it was enough for the Germans to ignite their more vigorous combat morale and prepare for the next round of naval and air battles, and to compete with British and American forces for air supremacy at sea.

"At 2:55, 8 enemy cruisers, 6 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier were found, and no aircraft cover was seen; The enemy is 020 nautical miles, 200 nautical miles from our army, and we are driving towards the enemy! ”

A moment later, the German front-line aircraft carriers and fleets also received maritime reconnaissance planes, and radar telegrams, and reports that the British and American fleets had discovered the road.

So the speed of the fleet slowed down from 30 knots to 2 to 21 knots, and sailed, and approached the British and American fleets, preparing for war.

At the same time, the ground crews on the deck of the German aircraft carrier were also refueling the carrier-based aircraft groups and bomber groups that were already ready to go, and checking the ammunition equipment.

After a long time, with one deafening roar after another, 40 F-8D fighters, 20 Do 217s, and 40 He-177 heavy bombers immediately took off from the flight deck and attacked the British and American fleets.

Escorted by 40 F-8D fighters, a total of 60 bombers were divided into three groups, quickly approaching the British and American fleets, preparing to attack.

"Enemy bomber, starboard 45 degrees, approaching at a high altitude!"

"Enemy torpedo machine, 38 degrees on the port side, approaching at low altitude!"

"Enemy fighter group, approaching at an altitude of 100 nautical miles!"

"The enemy's 3 fast battleships, 3 heavy cruisers, 13 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier, with an azimuth of X degrees north latitude and X degrees 08 minutes west longitude, are sailing X degrees and a speed of 21 knots, and are rapidly approaching our fleet!"

At this time, the British and American aircraft carrier fleets were also searched from radar, and the lookout sentry on the bridge also discovered the appearance of the German aircraft carrier fleet and reported to their own aircraft carrier fleet.

Almost as soon as the Anglo-American outpost fleet was reported by the appearance of the German fleet, the German fighter groups and bomber groups also rushed to the skies over the British and American aircraft carrier fleets on these fronts and began to attack.

If you look up from the piercing scream, you can soon see that under the cover of the F-8D fighters, 20 Do 217 and 40 He-177 heavy bombers dived down one after another, and the first batch of 8 aerial bombs that were deflected fell like raindrops next to the British and American light aircraft carriers, causing the water column caused by the explosion to rush onto the deck of the aircraft carrier like a monstrous wave.

Soon, however, 15 aerial bombs fell from the sky and all of them landed on the starboard side of the aircraft carrier that were preparing to take off to meet them, and 12 British and American planes were reimbursed at once, and a fire broke out on the aircraft carrier.

In an instant, the entire light aircraft carrier was a shocking sea of fire, because these British and American planes that were blown up by the German heavy bomber group were all filled with engine oil and aerial bombs, so the moment they were bombed, they immediately caused an inquiry, so that the British and American pilots who were preparing to take off all hid in the sea of fire, turned into flying ashes, and scattered with the wind.
