"This time, I must let these arrogant Imperial Chinese Navy, as well as those stupid-looking battleships, sink into the sea to feed the fish!"

A German pilot pilot, piloting the newest carrier-based fighter-bomber of the German army, shouted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Next to him was another bomber of the same type, and the pilot on it could hear the shouts of his companions and echoed them.

"Yes! We have to let the Chinese know that their naval warships have long been outdated, and in front of our bombers, these giant ships of tens of thousands of tons are simply vulnerable! ”

"We want to witness the greatness of the German Empire!"

"We are going to defeat the Imperial Chinese Navy!"

"Long live the great German Empire!"

The operators behind the two bombers also shouted, fortunately the planes were slow in this era, otherwise they would have been blown up by the hurricane if they yelled in this open-air skeleton.

Two Junker-18s, the latest fighter-bombers developed by the German Empire, were flying toward the Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy, which was more than 10 kilometers away.

The Junkers Type 18 is a fighter-bomber secretly developed by the German Imperial Military Industry, equipped with a 12.7 mm caliber heavy machine gun, the aircraft has a take-off weight of 4,100 kg, can carry 420 kg of bombs, has a crew of 4, and each engine has a power of 110 kilowatts (150 horsepower).

This almost represented the pinnacle of the German Reich's military-industrial capabilities, because so far only two countries in the world could manufacture aircraft engines with a power of more than 150 horsepower.

Of course, compared with the Chinese Empire, the German Empire's aero engines are still far behind, and you must know that the power of the Chinese Empire's aero engines has long exceeded 300 horsepower.

However, the fact that a 150-horsepower aircraft engine could be installed on an airplane so quickly, and that a conventional fighter plane could be upgraded to a bomber, was a source of pride for the German Empire, which even the Chinese Empire had overlooked.

It's not that Li Weiguo doesn't know how to develop bombers, it's that he doesn't want to expose bombers to the people of the world too early, which will cause all countries in the world to start developing bombers prematurely.

But things often went not as planned, and the German Empire, instigated by Hittra's efforts, developed bombers, and even moved them directly to aircraft carriers.

The impact of this on future naval battles will be huge, and it is obvious that Hitler has no other way to counter the Chinese Empire, so he can only put the bomber on the stage of history in advance.

However, if Hitler had come to the English Channel and seen the warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy with his own eyes, he would have cried to death.

This is because, as the founder of the Chinese Imperial Navy, Li Weiguo's foresight is much stronger than that of Hitla, and he has long been aware of the huge threat of future fighters to the navy.

And the planes of this era were very slow, they didn't even have a shell, they were completely bare skeleton structures.

The pilots on the two German bombers had been training for more than a year, and they had blown up and sunk the German retired battleships on the shooting range, thinking that the battleships that could only shoot flat could not help their bombers in the sky, so they had no fear and swaggered directly towards the battleship Fury, the flagship of the Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy.

Obviously, these two German pilots were not stupid, they knew that their two bombers alone could not sink hundreds of warships of all the Imperial Chinese Navy, so they could only attack the flagship of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the Fury.

However, they are very sad today, in the eyes of the officers and men of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the German pilots on these two bombers are all second-class goods, and they have come to look for abuse.

On the battleship Fury, when the commander of the anti-aircraft artillery of all ranks spotted two German bombers flying towards him, he immediately prepared for battle.

With a bang, next to an anti-aircraft gun, the commander drew his saber and pointed the blade at the German bombers flying in front.

"Prepare to shoot in the air!"

The order was given, and the three sailors next to him quickly adjusted their anti-aircraft guns and aimed them at one of the German bombers.

"Target 170 (azimuth), 40 (elevation), 80 (speed)"

"Half-speed wind adjustment!"

"Shoot 1200 high!"

"Zhuyuan is loaded!"

"Anti-aircraft shooting ready!"

"Ready-shoot!"

The tongue of fire of the quadruple 20-mm anti-aircraft guns spewed out dense bullets into the sky, drawing four lines of fire that shone brightly in the dim sky.

At the same time, more than 60 anti-aircraft guns on the entire battleship Fury were firing at full power, and in the blink of an eye, one after another lines of fire shot into the sky, intertwined into a dense network of firepower.

Knock knock!

Knock knock!

Dense artillery fire into the air, at that moment, except for the officers and men of the Chinese Imperial Navy, everyone was instantly stunned.

The Imperial Chinese Navy had never tested anti-aircraft guns and machine guns in public, so it was the first time that the British Royal Navy next to it had seen it, and they had never known why there were so many parallel machine guns on the warships of the Imperial Chinese Empire, whether they were specially designed to kill prisoners. In addition to the main gun, other forms of artillery can be erected at a large elevation angle (high-level dual-purpose artillery), and it has always been thought that it is used to support land operations, because there are mountains on land, and artillery firing at large elevation angles is equivalent to mortars and howitzers, with curved ballistics and can shoot behind mountains, while the main guns that fire flat cannot do it.

Now they understand that so many parallel machine guns are used to fight planes, and they can shoot thousands of meters high, while ordinary machine guns do not have this ability. And those high-level dual-purpose artillery, at this moment, directly fired into the air, and the shells could hit a height of seven or eight thousand meters, which is not too scary.

More than a dozen kilometers away, the German Navy from Tirpitz down, all of them had bewildered expressions. They thought that these two bombers were going to cause a big disaster, because once they blew up and sank the battleship Fury of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the result would inevitably provoke a full-scale war between China and Germany, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Even Tirpitz was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, but the next moment he found out that the battleship guns of the Imperial Chinese Navy could shoot in the air, and this cliff subverted Tirpitz's imagination and made his head blank in an instant.

But the most bewildering thing was the two German bombers flying in the air, and the pilots and other operators on them were directly frightened by the swishing sound of dense bullets passing through their ears, faces, and crotches at that moment.

Then the anti-aircraft artillery shells continued to explode nearby, and the blast wave of the explosion was stirred in the air, and the two bombers were instantly impacted and rolled in the air.

It was not until this moment that these German pilots regretted that they should not have come out to pretend to be forced, but now they did not pretend to be forced, but their lives were not guaranteed.

In the face of death, no one can be calm.

The German pilots howled and whirled, and the bare fuselage was impossible to protect them.

Soon, several German pilots were cut to pieces by the shrapnel that exploded and flew around, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Boom!

The shells hit more and more accurately, and the two German bombers were hit in the blink of an eye, exploded in the air, turned into two huge flames, and crashed into the sea.

Li Weijun had already anticipated the result, and immediately ordered the main guns of the whole fleet to open fire and bombard the German Imperial High Seas Fleet.

Knock knock!

Knock knock!

The 406-mm cannon fired, and the giant shells, weighing more than a ton, roared towards the German aircraft carriers according to the predetermined trajectory.

This time, the main guns of the ships of the Atlantic Fleet were aimed at the German aircraft carriers, which was ordered by Li Weijun.

More than 10 seconds later, thousands of shells fell into the German aircraft carrier battle group and exploded, and six aircraft carriers were immediately hit by bullets and exploded, and huge mushroom clouds rose into the air.

Those aircraft carriers are all converted civilian ships, even if the largest one has one or two thousand tons, but without any protection, in front of the Chinese Imperial Navy, like a girl without clothes, can be ravaged wantonly.

The six German aircraft carriers that were hit by the bomb were hit hard in an instant, the flames were raging, black smoke was billowing out, their hulls could not withstand the explosion and broke, and the sea water poured violently, and they were sinking at a speed that they could see.

Tirpitz was also taken aback by the sudden attack of the Imperial Chinese Navy, he knew that the matter was big, and he also wanted to turn around and fight a decisive battle with the Imperial Chinese Navy, but the scene just now made him hesitate, the only thing he dared to fight with the Imperial Chinese Navy was the aircraft carrier, but he never thought that all ships of the Imperial Chinese Navy were equipped with anti-aircraft artillery, and there were extremely large numbers, with the current performance of German bombers, it was almost difficult to break through the air defense fire network of the Imperial Chinese Navy.

In that case, the aircraft carrier battle group would be useless, and the German High Seas Fleet alone would never be able to defeat the Imperial Chinese Navy.

Rather than be wiped out, it is better to endure humiliation.

Tirpitz hurriedly radioed to Li Weijun to ask for a cease-fire, saying that the two bombers were acting on their own, hoping that the Imperial Chinese Navy would not attack again, and that the Imperial German Navy had no intention of confronting the Imperial Chinese Navy.

In fact, Li Weijun also gave the order to attack in a moment of brain fever, and he was not completely sure that the German High Seas Fleet did not have the slightest ability to counterattack.

After all, there are many variables on the battlefield, and it is not necessarily that the more people and the better equipped will win, and sometimes the weak side will turn over.

At the same time, Li Weijun also received a telegram from the Imperial War Department, asking him not to rush into war with the German Empire.

In this way, Li Weijun could not let the incident expand, anyway, the Chinese Imperial Navy won, so that the German High Seas Fleet was deflated and lost face, and the goal had been achieved, so Li Weijun agreed to Tirpitz's request and ordered to stop firing.

In this way, a full-scale Sino-German war that almost broke out ended with the German navy subduing and the Chinese Imperial Navy winning.

But this matter continued to ferment, and the whole world was shocked, and they understood one thing, that is, the Chinese Empire and the German Empire had really parted ways, and the two countries had reached the point where a full-scale war could start at any time.

As a result, the nations of the world were careful not to get involved in disputes between the two countries in their relations with the Chinese Empire and the German Empire.

Of course, the countries on the side of the Chinese Empire accounted for the majority, after all, the Chinese Empire was the most powerful, and although the German Empire was also very strong, it was far inferior to the Chinese Empire, whether it was the scale of the economy, industry, military, population, territory, or resources.

The English Channel incident plunged the people of the German Empire into a deep panic, they were tired of the war, even if they occupied France and merged with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, tens of millions of people died, causing a heavy burden and suffering to German society, coupled with the strength of the Chinese Empire, which was almost invincible, which made the Germans deeply depressed and panicked.

This incident also frightened Hitla, it turned out that he also ignored the air defense capabilities of the fleet, ignoring that it was difficult for fighters in this era to break through the fleet with a complete anti-aircraft fire network.

Wilhelm II was embarrassed and became even more angry, preparing for a decisive battle with the Chinese Empire in three days, if it were not for the persuasion of Hitra and other ministers, I am afraid that Wilhelm II would immediately pick up the phone, call Li Weiguo, and make an appointment to pk.

However, all this is not in Li Weiguo's attention now, and after he learned of the English Channel incident, he only smiled faintly, and he was very confident in the military of the Chinese Empire.

Under normal circumstances, Li Weiguo no longer directly gives the military ideas and directions, and he hopes that the military will have its own mode of thinking, so that it can be independent in the future.

But at the key point, Li Weiguo couldn't help but say a few words.

For example, during the English Channel incident, the military learned that the Imperial German Navy already had a large number of aircraft carriers, although the performance of these aircraft carriers was backward and far less advanced than the aircraft carriers built by the Imperial Chinese Navy itself. However, in the eyes of the military, the Chinese Imperial Navy was the most powerful, leading the world not only in terms of quality, but also in terms of quantity.

As a result, the military submitted a report on the construction of 300 aircraft carriers, which made Li Weiguo startled.

When did the Chinese Empire become so rich? Three hundred aircraft carriers can be built, even if they are not nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, but they can't afford to build conventionally powered aircraft carriers!

The cabinet and the National Assembly rejected the proposal without hesitation, and the military turned to Li Weiguo for help.

Li Weiguo had no choice but to lobby the cabinet and Congress to approve the construction of eight aircraft carriers, two per year, and two new aircraft carriers every other year after eight years.

According to Li Weiguo's estimate, it is impossible for aircraft carriers to pose a substantial threat to the main ships of the Navy for a long time to come, because the planes of this era are slow and have light loads, and as long as the warships are equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft guns, they are enough to deal with any air threat.

The same is true in history, why Britain built aircraft carriers during World War I, but other countries disdained it, and it was not until World War II that it was taken seriously, entirely because the fighters carried by early aircraft carriers could not pass the anti-aircraft fire network of battleships at all, so they did not pay attention to the development of aircraft carriers, and it was not until the fighter gained a significant increase in speed and load that the aircraft carrier posed a threat to the warship.

Therefore, Li Weiguo's attitude still allows the military to focus on the research and development of fighters and bombers, and strive to increase the speed and engine load capacity of fighters, so that when a certain time comes, it will not be too late to build aircraft carriers on a large scale.

Regardless of whether the military understands it or not, Li Weiguo's words are oracles and cannot be questioned.

As a result, the military has cancelled its plan to build 300 aircraft carriers and will only build two aircraft carriers each year for training carrier-based aircraft pilots and summing up the experience of aircraft carrier command operations.

The military has shifted more money and technology to developing fighter jets and bombers with increased payloads.

Li Weiguo arrived at Chang'an Daming Palace as scheduled, and now his mind is all about Lishan.

The day of the blood moon was getting closer and closer, and his mood was also excited and expectant. (To be continued.) )
