Lütjans had already commanded his fleet to move at full speed towards the Brest military port, which was the route he had to choose. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

The cruiser Nuremberg was running out of supplies, and the German fleet had stayed long enough in the Atlantic after such a long and fierce battle.

After a day, the German Navy bypassed the British patrol fleet and sailed all the way south, finally completely freeing itself from the British Navy's encirclement and interception.

On the morning of the next day, they encountered the German detachment, which had rushed to provide cover, and was completely safe.

The battlecruiser Scharnhorst arrived with two pocket battleships, the Lützov and the Admiral Scheer, to join the Lütjens fleet of the German Navy.

Another day, on November 19, the huge German naval fleet arrived in the port of Brest and successfully completed the mission.

"My Führer! I have to say that this combat mission is really unexpected. "When Raeder learned that the battle cruiser Scharnhorst had joined the main fleet, he put a hanging heart in his stomach.

He then learned that in the Battle of Sunday, the German main fleet had sunk a British capital warship.

In addition, the miracle of naval aviation, as well as reports of battles such as the attack of the German fleet on the TC fleet, were sent to the Supreme High Command.

"Oh my God, it's really exciting that we managed to annihilate a fleet and sink one of the enemy's capital ships." The corners of Raeder's mouth were almost grinning.

The Navy, which had been silent for so long, finally stood on the stage of history once again after going to Norway and showed the German Navy to the world.

As the commander-in-chief of the German Navy, Raeder knew that even if this victory had nothing to do with him, he would definitely be remembered in the annals of naval history as the naval commander of this era.

Really as he said, God forbid! At this moment, Raeder is really very happy.

Because the German fleet, which broke away from the British blockade in the North Sea, could enter the Atlantic more calmly to fight.

At the same time, it turned out in real combat that their warships, after switching to more suitable tactics, could crisscross the Atlantic, inflicting huge losses on the enemy's transport lines.

Li Le looked at his naval commander, and directly poured a basin of cold water on the other party: "Your Excellency, my marshal, this war has just begun, just sinking an enemy's capital ship can make you so excited?" ”

As if he had only known his Führer on the first day, Raeder looked at Li Le speechless in surprise.

This is not to blame Li Le at all, as a traverser, he really can't understand how difficult it is to sink a British Navy capital ship.

It is no longer news that the submarine sank the opponent's battleship, in fact, after the Determination was killed by the Italian Navy submarine, everyone was not shocked by the submarine attacking the opponent's capital ship.

And in the duel of surface ships, sinking the opponent's battleship with artillery and retreating with dignity is definitely a sign of the rise of the German Navy.

It's no wonder that Raeder is so excited, and even a little out of shape. For the German marshal, the myth of the invincibility of the British Royal Navy had just been shattered by the German Navy!

That's the former hegemon of the naval world! In front of this overlord, how shocking and exciting is it to slap the other party twice and then retreat?

"Don't get carried away by victory, the enemy can fail countless times, and we will perish if we fail once...... Please keep this in mind. After Li Le poured a basin of cold water, he continued to splash a second basin.

Then, Yuan Xiansheng stood up, walked up to the excited Raeder, patted the other party on the shoulder and said: "Marshal Raeder, the fleet is back in Brest, do you know what our enemies will do?" ”

Looking at Raeder, who had a victor's smile on his face, Li Le stretched out his finger: "First of all, the British will lay mines near Brest to block our shipping lane!" ”

"Secondly!" As he spoke, Li Le stretched out a second finger: "Then, the British will set up a new patrol line here to monitor our fleet in the port of Brest!" ”

Speaking of this, Li Le saw that there was no smile on Raeder's face in front of him, leaving him full of worry.

Then the Führer went on to say the worse thing that followed: "The British will send all the planes they can find, pounce on the port of Brest, and bombard your fleet at any cost!" ”

I have to say that the location of Britain, an island isolated outside the European continent, is really good.

It was strangled in a just right position, blocking French ports at the southern end and German and Danish estuaries at the northern end.

If necessary, it can blockade more than eighty percent of the ports facing the Atlantic Ocean throughout Europe, and this natural geographical advantage once made the German navy and the French navy look at it.

Like Napoleon, he had nothing to do with British maritime power; The High Seas Fleet, as powerful as Wilhelm II, could not tear open the huge net that Britain had opened.

But now, the German navy departed from the port of Kiel, passed through Denmark and went north along the Norwegian sea, and from the Danish Channel into the Atlantic, using the infant navy to tease the British Royal Navy.

How could the other party just give up? How could the other side let such a fleet stop at its own pillow?

"The battleship Bismarck needs to be repaired, and it will be in Brest for at least twenty days." Li Le stared at Raeder, fearing that his pride would ruin the only chance for the German Navy.

He spoke slowly and gave his opinion: "I will let Goering use all the power at his disposal to ensure the safety of Brest...... Your mission is to get the navy supplied as quickly as possible, and get the supplies ready so that the fleet can sail at any time! ”

The best defense has always been offensive, and as long as the fleet is not in the harbor, the British bombardment will not be able to achieve the desired goal.

On the other hand, Li Le can't afford to wait. He had to multiply his Atlantic strangulation power to have a chance of winning over Britain before the Americans were completely involved.

Li Le, who came from later generations, knew how terrible it would be for the United States, the hegemon of the industrial world, to go all out.

If the whole of Europe is gathered, it can only compete with the United States at most. In order to win the war in this case, it is necessary to kick the Americans out of the game before they are ready!

To be honest, the current Li Le really wants to do his best to realize Germany's dream start in World War II -- landing in Britain and completely completing the Atlantic barrier, so that Germany will no longer have to worry about the future.

It was Germany's most fantastic start and the most difficult to achieve. However, as a traverser, Li Le thinks that he still has a chance to give it a try.

And the prerequisite for giving it a try is to keep its fleet and constantly cause trouble for the British Navy in the vast Atlantic.

As long as the British navy continues to be depleted, and the loss of the transport fleet is greater than the speed of construction, the British shipping system will collapse within half a year, and the British mainland will not be an unattainable dream.

"I bet the British will bomb Brest." Li Le put on a smiling face and said to Raeder.

Seeing Li Le's smiling face, German Navy Marshal Raeder suddenly realized that the Führer had been running Brest for the past few months, and he was waiting for this moment.

It turned out that a few months ago, when the Führer had just swept away France, he had already begun to plan today's naval battle.

Long back then, the Führer had clearly seen the radical changes that naval aviation would bring to the fleet.

"So, let's try all the good things we have prepared for the British!" As he said this, Raeder saw the creepy smile on the Führer's face.

Yes, creepy smiles! From this smile alone, Raeder could sense what a terrible means the Führer had prepared for the British.

Only Marshal Raeder himself knew, including the deployment of the latest night air defense special-purpose fighter JU-88 modification in two field airfields in Brest.

Equipped with a new type of weaponry and equipped with the latest radar, these night fighters are even more combat-capable than the night fighter units stationed near Berlin.

These advanced night fighters are supported by three independently operating radar bases deployed around Brest.

In addition, there were also anti-aircraft guns densely hidden around the harbor, which made Raeder frown when he saw it.

As for saying that the British chose to bomb during the day, then Goering would definitely wake up laughing in his dreams. The Luftwaffe's day fighters were dozens of times larger than those of night fighters, which was definitely enough for the British Air Force to drink.

Hundreds of ME-109E and FW-190B will make the pilots who come to the British Air Force on a mission doubt their lives......

Earlier, Raeder had doubts, thinking that it was a bit of a fuss to protect a port in such a big way. Now it seems that the Führer is digging a new hole for the enemy.

After the navy attacked the other side, returning to Brest was just a decoy, and Brest deployed so many anti-aircraft weapons would make the deceived British Royal Air Force suffer another loss.

In any case, if the British planes had really bombed Brest, they would have realized that they had been sent to their deaths before they flew over the port......

The Führer was already ready in Brest, waiting for the RAF to throw itself into the net. What Raeder had to do was get the fleet ready to strike again.
