Chapter 2063: Halsey foresees
When the commander-in-chief heard Hu Hao say that he wanted to continue fighting, he immediately stopped talking, but went to the map on the European side, looked at the map over there, and thought about it. And Hu Hao also walked to the side, not to disturb the commander-in-chief's thinking, and he was also looking at the map.
"You say, if you were the commander of the United States, where would you let those planes park in this situation?" The commander-in-chief asked, looking at the map.
"It must be Ireland, it's closer, and the United States is afraid that the German side will continue to attack! They can only put it over there now, and the airfields in these places have been bombed by German bombers! Hu Hao pointed to the map of Britain near the English Channel.
"So how long does it usually take to get from here to the places where those aircraft carriers in the United States stay?" The commander-in-chief asked again.
"It takes at least half an hour, I don't worry about the air force of the United States, I feel that this fight is right, I can't give the United States a chance, re-deploy the planes on those aircraft carriers, if the planes are arranged, it will be difficult for the German side to land on the British side! And our aircraft carriers are still in great danger! Hu Hao looked at the commander-in-chief and said.
"That must be, those aircraft carriers of the United States in the Atlantic, if we can get rid of it, it would be the best, and our aircraft carrier formation will be more safe!" The commander-in-chief nodded.
"So, this opportunity is very good, when Lao Chen asked me, I agreed!" Hu Hao said.
"Then fight, if you decide, our navy fought very well in that one just now! The losses are minimal! The commander-in-chief agreed.
"Well, that's why Lao Chen has the confidence to fight, and I also hope that our admirals will have this confidence in the future!" Hu Hao responded,
"By the way, when do you think you will be able to fight?" The commander-in-chief asked again.
"I don't know now, I didn't ask, just let those generals on the front line call the shots. I just asked, since I handed it over to them, I don't care about it! Hu Hao shook his head and said.
"Well, yes, delegating power is very important, in that case, you must go back early tonight to rest, I'm here! I'll deal with the situation! The commander-in-chief thought for a moment and said.
"I'll come, I won't be able to sleep when I go back, I'm all here. I'll just forget it, and I'm still the commander of the Navy, and I understand the situation over there! Hu Hao said with a smile.
When the commander-in-chief heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, you can come here, I'll go back later!" β
After Hu Hao came out of the commander-in-chief's office, he asked the intelligence and information center to send the location of the aircraft carrier on the Atlantic side, and after the people from the headquarters made the sea charts, they sent them to Hu Hao's office. Hu Hao took the chart and looked at it, and he also took the tool and began to measure.
"Well, we have 3 hours left. It will be 3 and a half hours at most, and the plane will arrive in the United States! There's still a chance! After Hu Hao finished calculating, he stood up and said with a sigh of relief.
And on the other side of the Atlantic, the Chinese aircraft carriers again pounced on the enemy's aircraft carriers. The pilots of the bombers and most of the fighters had already gone to rest in the cabin before they fought. It also requires a lot of consumption!
"Commander, the latest information, the aircraft carriers of the United States are approaching the Irish side, that is, they are also leaning towards us, although it is not a straight line, but the distance between us is getting closer and closer!" A staff officer took a telegram to Commander Chen's side and said,
Commander Chen went to the side of the chart, looked at the chart, and asked, "How long do we have to ensure that our bombers can bomb the enemy's sky for an hour?" β
"I guess it'll take about an hour!" Another staff officer said, Commander Chen looked at his watch, counted the time and said: "Okay, our attack time is 2 hours, and the fighters over there can't find our aircraft carrier.
Later, I will tell our pilots, as soon as we get to the enemy's aircraft carrier formation, we will kill the enemy's aircraft carrier first, and then we will not be able to fight for long when the fighters from the United States arrive at the aircraft carrier, and if there is no aircraft carrier for them to land, they will go back immediately!
So after taking out the enemy's aircraft carriers, our aircraft carriers will be safe! Commander Chen said to the staff officers.
"Yes!" The captain of the air command said.
"Also, give us the other two aircraft carrier formations the same explanation, we will kill them, and then find a way to eat the last aircraft carrier of the United States in the Atlantic, then the Atlantic Ocean is the world of our Chinese aircraft carriers! We can move in and out as we please! "Where did Commander Chen continue to command,
"Commander, if we win this time, I think our Chinese Navy will usher in a golden period of development! I guess Hu Shuai will definitely have a plan! A staff officer said.
"Well, there must be, or what he sent us out for, it's to study and do actual combat training, our navy, there are ships and no one!" Commander Chen nodded and said,
And on the aircraft carrier Hancock in the United States, Halsey stood on the deck, looking at the northeast direction, the previous 4 aircraft carriers were sunk by China over there, and none of the other ships escaped, all of them were sunk.
After Halsey got the news, it had been more than an hour, and he didn't say a word except for issuing orders, just stood quietly on the deck, and the other staff officers continued to be busy with their own affairs, while several senior staff officers had been standing next to him,
"We are really in danger this time, I have a hunch that the enemy will not let us go, they have all calculated!" Halsey said suddenly.
"Ah, Commander, are we?" A staff officer next to him heard Halsey's sudden speech, first surprised, he didn't expect Halsey to speak suddenly, and then, he was frightened by Halsey's words!
"Commander, no, our plane will arrive in less than a few hours, the Chinese side will not take that risk, they don't dare yet!" Another staff officer said.
"Don't dare? Ha! Halsey heard it, sneered, and then continued: "There is nothing they dare not do, their Chinese navy has come thousands of miles to this side, not to fish, but to fight us, what do you say they don't dare, this is the purpose of the people!"
"But isn't he afraid that our domestic fighter jets will catch him?" A staff officer asked.
"Catch? What do you take to catch them, our planes? If our planes take off from the Irish side, even if they come to our side, they will have to descend and refuel before they can continue to fight. Halsey muttered as he looked into the distance.
"But, our plane, it must work!" The staff officer next to him continued.
"No, China will not let our planes land, they will attack our aircraft carriers as soon as possible!" Halsey shook his head and said,
"Commander, you think too much, China won't come, if you do, you'll be there a long time ago!" The person next to him continued to persuade.
"Hah!" Halsey shook his head and said nothing, just smiled wryly.
"Commander, you don't need to be so pessimistic, even if they come, we are ready now, and China will not be able to get any benefits!" The people next to him continued to persuade, and they still had a hint of luck in their hearts, but Halsey understood that the war was about to begin!
"Send a telegram to the president's office, tell them, prepare other aircraft carriers to come here to take over our defense, the Chinese side may come to attack us, I estimate that they can't hold it, let them immediately send the aircraft carrier over and continue to guard our troops, the Chinese aircraft carrier is estimated to retreat after the battle, don't worry about them!" Halsey spoke.
"Commander, let's send it now, the air force on the Chinese side hasn't appeared yet!" A staff officer asked.
"Look what's over there, is it our reconnaissance plane! Do we still have reconnaissance aircraft? Halsey asked, pointing northeast!
"Ah, no, damn it, it's a reconnaissance plane over there!" When those staff officers saw it, their faces turned blue,
They know what it means for the Chinese reconnaissance plane to come here, and it should be a matter of eight or nine to attack them!
"Don't send it yet, what are you waiting for!" Halsey said to a man behind him.
"Yes!" A staff officer quickly ran to the bridge, and Halsey looked at the Chinese plane in the sky and walked back.
"Send a telegram to our command and find the United States aircraft carrier, 2 ships!" The captain of the reconnaissance aircraft spoke.
"Yes!" The correspondent immediately began to send it, and when the telegram was received on the side of the Tarzan, the siren was immediately pulled.
"Woooooooooooo Woooooo The short sirens made the pilots inside immediately run out of their cabins and began to run towards their planes, "Hurry, hurry! We're ready to take off, this time our target is still the enemy's aircraft carrier, and after you get there, the first thing to attack is the aircraft carrier of the United States, first blow up the aircraft carrier of the United States, and then say, the other ships, we will attack next, hurry up! The commander of the air command shouted loudly in the aisle of the cabin, and kept repeating!
After some pilots arrived on the deck, according to the instructions of the ground crew, they began to start the plane and drove towards the take-off place.
"Sue sΓΉ command tower, if the following is ready, you can take off!" Commander Chen stood on the bridge, looked at the planes below, and said to a staff officer next to him.
"Yes!" The staff officer went in at once! (To be continued......)
