The British Wellington bomber carried nine 500-pound aerial bombs (227 kilograms), and as long as the Zeppelin aircraft carrier was hit on the deck, it would lose the ability to take off and land aircraft, and the role of the aircraft carrier that lost the ability to take off and land aircraft would be greatly reduced, not to mention that the Zeppelin aircraft carrier was the flagship of the entire aircraft carrier formation and the command center of the entire fleet.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

The first Wellington bomber just started to drop aerial bombs, and it was immediately hit and exploded in the air, but fortunately, Li Mo let the Zeppelin aircraft carrier full rudder in time, and all these aerial bombs were thrown into the sea, less than ten meters away from the side of the Zeppelin aircraft carrier, which was really thrilling.

The second one rushed from another direction, there was no such good luck, this plane just flew over the Zeppelin, and before it had time to open the pop-up window, it was broken wings and rolled down, as a result, a German destroyer was unlucky, it wanted to help the Zeppelin aircraft carrier, the British bomber with broken wings directly hit the tail of the destroyer, two tons of aerial bombs were added to fuel, and then exploded with a "boom".

The entire destroyer was immediately turned into slag, and then it was carried into the air by a violent explosion, and a huge mushroom cloud mixed with thick smoke rose, and the entire destroyer had disappeared without a trace. Then came a storm of steel rain that fell from the sky.

Li Mo didn't have time to grieve, he could only pray to God to let these heroic soldiers go to heaven as soon as possible, and countless British bombers still flocked desperately, and the form became more and more dangerous. If the British bombers were allowed to swarm like this, then the loss of the entire aircraft carrier would definitely be too great for Li Mo to bear. In just three or four minutes, the aircraft carrier formation shot down no less than 50 British bombers, but the following British bombers continued to swarm in, and the number of British bombers was too many.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the Z15 was hit with two aerial bombs and is sinking, request to abandon the ship."

"It is forbidden for anyone to abandon the ship, and all those who abandon the ship in order to obtain the order to abandon the ship, regardless of officers and soldiers, shall be punished as deserters."

This was the most severe order given by Limer, and these aircraft carriers were the hope of the German Navy. It was a last resort and must not be sunk. Li Mo was forced to do so!

"Order the Q23 and Q24 destroyers to come up and tie them to the sides of the Z15 so that the Z15 has plenty of time to repair it."

Li Mo's eyes were also on fire at this time, and he gave orders one after another. The situation of the entire air war is becoming more and more dangerous. It's just to the point of burning eyebrows. Li Mo gritted his teeth. Commanded loudly:

"Order all fighters to get out of the entanglement and go over the aircraft carrier formation to attack those British bombers who dare to break into the defensive circle, all anti-aircraft gunners should pay attention. Aim at the British bombers and try not to accidentally damage our own planes. ”

Li Mo has no choice, even if there is a mistake, he must first save the aircraft carrier, there are only planes without aircraft carriers, these planes are also saved, Li Mo is affectionate and righteous, but it does not mean indecisiveness, here and now, there must not be a little hesitation, for the safety of the entire aircraft carrier formation, Li Mo can only choose the lesser of two evils.

Soon countless German BF109s turned around and killed the aircraft carrier formation, and the British escort planes also followed, and the entire aircraft carrier formation was full of planes flying up and down, and below were countless anti-aircraft guns firing fiercely in the air.

"Dada...... Woowoo...... "The whole sky was full ......of smoke, the whole sea was full of burning flames, and countless planes that fell on the surface of the sea turned into flames burning on the surface of the sea, and the fuel carried by the planes floated on the surface of the sea and ignited scorching flames. The sky and the sea turned red against the backdrop of the flames. Half fire, half seawater, you can't tell whether it's this earth or hell.

The German ships below were also hit by aerial bombs from time to time and caught fire. Now the whole sky is a rain of bullets, death everywhere, life is like ants at this moment, the British bombers want to desperately rush into the defensive circle to bomb, and all the carrier-based planes want to desperately prevent the British planes from approaching their aircraft carrier formation, the British escort planes come to desperately attack the German carrier-based aircraft, and the anti-aircraft artillery below is desperately firing at the air.

It's completely messed up, everyone has only one belief, kill each other, they can live, what honor, responsibility has long been left behind at this time, honor, promotion is only there if you survive, and those who die can only be martyrs.

"Two torpedoes were found on the starboard side and two torpedoes on the starboard side."

"The starboard odd 37-mm twin anti-aircraft gun immediately blocked the enemy torpedo."

The Zeppelin aircraft carrier was in full swing with the enemy planes in the air, and suddenly a British bomber that had slipped through the net slipped into the sea and fired two torpedoes at the Zeppelin aircraft carrier, which was of course a heavy torpedo of 1,000 kilograms, and this kind of heavy torpedo could not even be carried by a battleship, let alone a thin ship like an aircraft carrier.

The cat-ear anti-aircraft batteries fired by Li Mo played a huge role, because the anti-aircraft batteries distributed on both sides of the ship had a 15-degree outward inclination, and the anti-aircraft guns also had a negative 30-degree depression angle, and the 28 37-mm twin-mounted anti-aircraft guns on the starboard side of the Zeppelin. There were 14 of them, and the anti-aircraft guns were aimed at the speeding torpedoes to intercept and fire. The speed of the torpedo is not very fast, fifty knots is the sky, and the speed compared to the plane is the speed of a turtle. Dense nets of fire hit the torpedo in its path, and even if there was a slight deflection of the cannon shells after entering the water, it was very rare.

After the bullet enters the water, it will deviate after a certain distance in a straight line, which can be seen when shooting under high water in later generations, and the torpedo is only about five meters from the water surface, and the 20 mm cannon will not deviate much if it enters the water for five meters, and the deviation of the cannon shell increases with the increase in the depth of the water.

"Boom ......"

Sure enough, the two torpedoes were blasted by the dense fire net of the machine guns, and two columns of water rose into the sky, and countless gunpowder smoke sprayed out of the sea.

The battle continued, the strangulation continued, the planes kept falling from the sky, and then fell to the surface of the sea and burned violently, and the warships were constantly hit, damaged, and sunk for the time being.

Twenty minutes later, the British bombers had no chance, they couldn't rush in at all, they were hit down by the cannons from all directions, even if it was the British fighters, it was also very sad, they not only had to deal with the attack of the German BF109, but also had to guard against the anti-aircraft artillery below, the British planes lost I don't know how many planes, they hurriedly withdrew from the attack, and began to return, their fuel was only enough to return, and they could not stay in the airspace of the warring, Otherwise, these British planes would not have been able to fly back to the Norwegian airfield.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the British planes began to retreat, whether to pursue or not."
