readx;
There was a thunderclap in the sky, and it seemed as if a thunderstorm was coming. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info╔╗
Bundy saw the loss of the air battle and the devastating blow to the aircraft carrier battle group, and was about to think about countermeasures, when he suddenly looked up at the sky and laughed.
"Your Excellency Commander, our aircraft carrier is smoking and burning under enemy aircraft, and our soldiers are struggling on the death line, and you are laughing at this time?"
Otto, who was already burning his eyebrows, couldn't help it anymore and actually blamed his boss.
Bundy was unimpressed, pointing to the dim sky and said, "Although we have lost air supremacy, God is taking care of us, you see that there will be a thunderstorm soon." We don't have fighters, and the enemy's planes can't fight in thunderstorms. ”
Otto looked at the sky, but shook his head and said, "I don't think it's something to be happy about!" Judging by the current attack posture of the enemy, I am afraid that they will destroy us before the storm comes. ╔╗”
Bundy nodded, agreeing with Otto's words. The storm may return, but until then I am afraid that the High Seas Fleet will not be able to resist the fierce offensive of the Imperial Chinese naval aviation.
"Is there any news on our attack aircraft group?"
Otto shook his head and said, "It's been more than twenty minutes since I lost contact!" I'm afraid that our attack aircraft group may be caught in the enemy's encirclement! ”
Bundy said, "There is no indication that we have fallen for the enemy's scheme!" ”
Otto argued: "Remember the Battle of Jutland? At that time, the Imperial Chinese Navy had a very advanced technology. ╔╗ Able to shield and intercept enemy radio signals in a certain area. ”
Bundy thought for a moment and said, "You mean the Bone Spirit electronic combat ship?" ”
Otto nodded and said, "More than twenty years have passed, and presumably today's White Bone Spirit electronic combat ship has jumped to a new level. It is not excluded that the enemy has already deciphered the communication code of our army! ”
Bundy frowned and said, "If that's the case, it's very likely that the previous information was deliberately sent to us by the enemy!" ”
Otto said nervously: "Then it will explain why the enemy's main fleet suddenly appeared in front of us!" It's just that, in this way, our attack aircraft fleet is dangerous! ”
Bundy sighed and said, "What the hell is it or not?" ╔╗We just have to try it! ”
Otto asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Bundy ordered: "Order, the course of the main fleet remains unchanged, and the third fleet sails southeast to divert the main force of the enemy fleet!" ”
The first wave of attacks by the Chinese Empire ended, and after paying the price of more than forty fighters, it successfully destroyed the aircraft carrier battle group of the High Seas Fleet. After the attack, the first wave of attack aircraft returned.
The Third Fleet of the High Seas Fleet was ordered to sail to the southeast, with the intention of attracting the main fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy to intercept it.
The German radio communications were soon intercepted by the nearby electronic combat ship Pipajing. And quickly deciphered and reported to the fleet command Admiral Li Dingxin.
Holding the enemy's intelligence, Li Dingxin couldn't help but laugh. ╔╗
On the side, Liu Chuntang said with victory in his hand: "The German fleet was originally in a weak position. If you divide the army again. It can only perish faster. ”
Li Dingxin smiled: "I was thinking about how to encroach on Bondi step by step, but I didn't expect Bondi to be so obedient to my heart!" ”
Then Li Dingxin asked again: "How is the situation over there?" ”
Liu Chuntang smiled understandingly: "More than 2,000 German fighters were ambushed by nearly 10,000 of our fighters, and the results are obvious. As of three minutes ago, the battle report sent by the commander of the Thunderbird Air Wing showed that more than two-thirds of the German aircraft group had been damaged in battle. The rest of the troops, who were no longer able to organize an effective battle formation, were being annihilated by the various air wings of our air force, and the battle should be over after half an hour. ”
"Congratulations, Commander. ╔╗ In this way, we can have a celebration banquet tonight! ”
There was a congratulatory sound on the bridge. Li Dingxin also accepted it calmly.
The battle was one-sided, and Li Dingxin did not hesitate. The First and Second Task Fleets of the Atlantic Fleet were immediately ordered to go to the predetermined sea area to intercept and kill the Third Detachment of the High Seas Fleet.
The 1st and 2nd Task Forces of the Atlantic Fleet included four super battleships, four super battle cruisers, eight Aegis air defense heavy cruisers, two missile cruisers, and more than 20 escort light cruisers and destroyers, plus six Song-class submarines.
Due to the huge scale of the Imperial Chinese Navy and the size of the German High Seas Fleet, the naval guns of the capital ships of both sides had a range of more than 30 kilometers, and the huge fleet spacing and the range of the guns made it difficult to carry out the decisive battle head-on, so the decisive battle of the capital ships of the two sides could only be divided into separate sub-fleets.
It was precisely when Li Dingxin saw this key factor that he was surprised by Bundy's sudden division of troops.
The Third Detachment of the High Seas Fleet consisted of no more than five battleships, four heavy cruisers, two light cruisers, seven destroyers, and eleven submarines.
Among them, the most powerful are the two ultimate battleships, and the 20-inch cannons they carry have a very great deterrent effect on the Imperial Chinese Navy.
The Ming-class battleships of the Imperial Chinese Navy would obviously suffer a loss if they fought these two German ultimate battleships alone. However, the Imperial Chinese Navy, which had already gained air supremacy, was not worried about this, because no matter how strong the battleship was, it would not escape the fate of being sunk by fighters in the end. For the officers and men of the Imperial Chinese Navy, countless actual combat exercises have already been carried out.
The era of battleship dominance of naval history seems to have passed, and by this time the officers and men of the Imperial Chinese Navy had basically accepted the fact that aircraft carriers dominated naval warfare. The reason why a large number of super battleships were still equipped and in service at this time was mainly because the Imperial Chinese Admiralty believed that the battleships still had some combat value. Of course, there were also many voices within the Imperial Navy calling for the retirement of all battleships, but the Admiralty calculated that the cost of dismantling a super battleship was much higher than the price of selling scrap iron.
"And they went!"
Bundy subconsciously didn't want this, but the reality was cruel, and the actions of the Chinese Emperor ** showed that they were well aware of the movements of the High Seas Fleet.
Otto sighed and said, "What to do? It looks like our latest communication code has been cracked by the enemy as well! ”
Bundy snorted coldly: "Although this is unfortunate news, it is also good news in turn!" ”
Otto looked puzzled and asked, "What does the commander mean?" ”
Bundy smiled meaningfully and said, "In a decisive battle with the Chinese Imperial Navy, we will definitely lose. But if we can preserve a certain amount of strength, as long as a third of the warships escape home, then we are the victors. Do you understand what I mean? ”
Otto asked, "Do you already have a plan to break out?" ”
Bundy just smiled and nodded, not saying a word, leaving the surrounding bridge crew confused. rq
