Not to mention anything else, the German High Seas Fleet, which did not suffer much loss in strength, was enough to confront the Ming Atlantic Fleet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIf you add the fleets of other countries, its strength is no longer something that the Ming Navy can eat.

Moreover, in addition to the reasons of strength, the bad weather in the North Atlantic was also a very important problem for the Ming army. The weather in the North Atlantic is rough and the waves are rough. In addition, tropical hurricanes often occur during this season, which is very unfavorable for navigational operations. In particular, it is not conducive to the Ming Navy, which has aircraft carriers as the core and aviation operations as the mainstay.

The combination of various unfavorable reasons made it difficult for the Ming Navy to make up its mind to eat this huge fleet. However, if these warships are allowed to successfully escape to the United States, it will inevitably have an adverse impact on the subsequent operations in the Americas. In this case, the Navy Command submitted the report to Zhang Cheng and handed over the final decision to Zhang Cheng. This is also Zhang Cheng's responsibility. He is the one who makes the final decision.

"There's nothing to say about that." Zhang Chengzou frowned, and the official document in his hand was still on the table, "You can't retreat just because you encounter difficulties." Nor can the enemy be spared because of difficulties and fear of losses. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. You're right. Xiao Hongbao, who was standing beside Zhang Cheng, responded respectfully: "Soldiers cannot choose to retreat in the face of a strong enemy and a dangerous environment. ”

"Call back to the command of the Navy." Zhang Cheng pursed the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice: "The North Atlantic battle plan can be executed. No matter how many enemy troops we can intercept in the end, and no matter how big our losses will be. This battle must be fought. Give it your all and be fearless. ”

"Yes!"

"Are you ready for the parade?" After a while, Zhang Cheng slowly walked to the window, looked at the magnificent palace building on the Seine River outside the window, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "This time there won't be anything like Berlin again?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Xiao Hongbao nodded slightly, "The security work is going very smoothly, although there are some resistance groups and spies from various countries who are trying to carry out sabotage operations. But we've nip it all in the bud. ”

"What about across the Channel?" Zhang Cheng turned around and leaned against the window, took out a cigarette and lit it, and asked in a loud voice, "Paris is so close to Britain, and I am going to hold a large-scale military parade here, there is no reason why they should not make some big moves, right?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Xiao Hongbao smiled and nodded, "According to the information we have sent back from the moles we have planted in the British high-level, the British have made up their minds to carry out a super-large-scale air raid operation when the military parade is held. The British thought it would be ideal to be able to attack you in the midst of the bombardment. If not, at least we will sabotage this parade and undermine our prestige and morale. ”

"Huh." Zhang Cheng hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered, "It's good to think about it, I'm afraid they don't have this strength." ”

"Army Airlines is the most prepared. They deployed more than fifteen hundred of their most elite jet fighters around Paris to counter the actions of the British. Moreover, the ground forces also set up thousands of anti-aircraft guns to attack the British aircraft. Xiao Hongbao's words were filled with disdain: "The British are almost desperate for the success of this operation." Not only did they send a large number of bombers on a life-and-death bombing mission, but they also put almost all the jets that the Americans gave them into action. ”

"How are the new aircraft of the Americans performing?" Zhang Cheng spit out the smoke ring and asked in a deep voice, "How is it compared to ours?" ”

According to the feedback from the intelligence department and the report and analysis of the experts of the Army Airlines, the performance of the F84 Lightning of the Americans is only a little better than the ME262 Storm Bird that the Germans were equipped with before, and their engine life has been extended, and the flight speed has also been increased. However, there is still a big gap compared to the fighters equipped by the army aviation. Xiao Hongbao said softly, "However, the Americans are already developing a more advanced new jet fighter, and the test flight has been completed and will soon be put into mass production." Perhaps we will encounter this new aircraft when we land in the Americas on a large scale. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Cheng extinguished his cigarette butt, looked out the window at the glorious Louvre in the distance, and asked in a deep voice, "Has the intelligence department got accurate information?" ”

"The specific data is not yet available." Xiao Hongbao shook his head in response, "However, according to the analysis, its performance has been greatly improved compared to this F84 lightning." ”

"What is the number of the new aircraft of the Americans?" Zhang Cheng frowned and asked.

"The internal number is tentatively F86, Sabre."

On September 28, 1943, Zhang Cheng held a large-scale military parade on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. Zhang Cheng inspected his army on the Arc de Triomphe Square.

The Arc de Triomphe was built by Napoleon, a hero of the French, after repelling the invading Ming army, to celebrate his glorious victory in saving the whole of France. It is also the spiritual center of the French people.

It's a pity that today, it has become a parade place for the Ming army that was repelled by the French, even if it was postponed for more than a hundred years, the Ming still conquered France.

On the same day, in order to reverse the tragic end, the British used their air power to try to disrupt the military parade held by the Ming in Paris. With a 1/10,000 hope, he tried to physically eliminate Zhang Cheng, so that Daming fell into the chaos of infighting, buying time and opportunities for his country.

More than 1,000 Lancaster, Wellington, and Mosquito bombers took off from airfields in the south of England and Wales under the cover of more than 700 fighters, including 550 of the latest F84 Lightning jets aided by the Americans, and flew across the English Channel to Paris. All the pilots had written suicide notes and left their personal belongings behind before takeoff. Because everyone knew that this attack was tantamount to a suicide act.

It's just that any country will have a group of people who are willing to die generously for the sake of the country before it is about to perish.

When a group of officers and soldiers of the Ming army lined up in a neat phalanx walked through the Champs-Élysées and entered the Arc de Triomphe Square in a neat step under the complicated and inexplicable eyes of countless Parisian citizens. In the distance, over the English Channel, a fierce battle of super-scale air has already begun.

Today is a rare good weather on the English Channel, originally at this time the sky should be covered with all kinds of birds soaring freely, but at this moment, the sky is full of metal monster birds belonging to humans. They chased each other in the sky, spitting long tongues of fire at each other, until one of them fell into the sea with fire and smoke screams.

Daming Army Airlines had already made all the preparations early, and they even got the route of the British plane. As the Ming army swept across the world and were trapped on an isolated island, there were naturally a large number of people among the British who could not see hope in any case, and now they would be thrown into the arms of the Ming Dynasty.

There are a lot of these traitors, and many of them are high-ranking people. As long as the spies of the Ming intelligence department lurking in the UK are slightly recruited, then there are British people who are willing to work for the Ming Dynasty. Especially now that this kind of Ming has achieved an absolute advantage.

The British air raid on Paris was so large that it was impossible to keep it secret. Because of the high-ranking moles, the Ming army had long been clear about the entire plan of the British. By the time the British formation had not yet had time to complete the formation, the Ming army's jet fighters were already waiting for them in the sky above the strait.

This fierce and brutal aerial battle began in the English Channel and went all the way to the outskirts of Paris, and although it seemed like a long distance, it was actually only a short time compared to the speed of the planes.

The fighters of the Daming Army Airlines were distributed in various airports, and then took off in stages to intercept them. More than 1,000 Ming jet fighters intercepted non-stop along the way. The ground anti-aircraft artillery of the Ming army, which had been calculated for a long time, also set traps on the path that the British had to pass, and shot down one British fighter plane after another with intensive artillery bombardment.

The 550 F84 Lightning fighters supported by the Americans played a certain role, but in the face of the interception of the Ming army's larger and better quality fighter units, they did not achieve the desired results. And the losses were extremely fast, and after a period of dogfighting, they lost the ability to protect their bombers. And the bomber that lost the protection of the fighter was undoubtedly miserable.

More than 1,000 British bombers of various types were shot down, and by the time the remaining British bombers arrived in the suburbs of Paris, they were in less than three digits. And the more than 700 fighters escorted by the British have long been lost. The last bombers continued to rush desperately towards Paris, but were shot down before they could reach the banks of the Seine.

Zhang Cheng successfully completed the military parade on the Champs-Élysées, and then he returned to the headquarters of Army Group Center set up in the city of Paris to wait for the news from the sea.

The Atlantic Fleet of the Ming Navy has been sailing for several days, and according to intelligence and predetermined battle plans, the main force of the Atlantic Fleet of the Ming Navy will formally engage the naval fleets of various countries that have fled to the American continent within 24 hours at the latest.

This time, the Ming Navy made this decision under the pressure of Zhang Cheng.

Although the strength of the Ming navy was enough to crush any opponent, their opponent this time was a combination of the fleets of several naval powers. It's very powerful. Moreover, the main force of the Ming Navy is not the Atlantic Fleet of the Ming Navy, but the Pacific Fleet on the other side of the World Island. (To be continued.) )
