Chapter 66

Ark Royal moved quickly, and the carrier-based aircraft, under her operation and leadership, quickly found the deep-sea troops that had left their original positions.

For the first time, the Royal Ark stood alone, very calmly. Her teacher, Cyclops, once said that she was the air supremacy pillar of the Royal Navy until the main force of the new generation of aircraft carriers matured.

She had to stand alone.

Ark Royal was not stupid and ignorant, and by the time she flew over the deep-sea forces again, she had understood her war-weariness. She did not attack immediately, and the carrier-based aircraft, under her control, kept as close to the deep sea as possible from the deep-sea anti-aircraft guns to observe.

For this behavior of the Royal Ark, Tirpitz, who was not present in person, naturally could not understand. In the humble picture, she could only see the planes approaching, but she couldn't see the distance between them at all, and she even thought that the aerial bombing had already begun. So in the sight of the Royal Ark, the Deep Sea Commission did a lot of comical operations.

"The flagship of the deep sea seems to know this." War-weary, who also observed the movements of the deep sea in the shared network, seemed to be appreciative, but full of sarcasm, "You see, these are all standard actions to avoid bombing, what a standard." ”

Apparently war weariness had sensed something, but she needed further certification. There is not much time left for her, and now the deep sea is only more than 40 kilometers away from Liege, and as long as she advances a little longer, Liege will enter the range of the deep-sea capital ship.

If it is a normal engagement, the two sides will naturally not fire at the longest range, because the accuracy is simply not enough, and the hit is completely relied on. But Liege is a fortress building that doesn't move, so it's very different, the deep sea doesn't need to think about any accuracy at all, as long as you shoot a salvo in one direction, it will always hit the fortress itself.

Therefore, the previous experience in controlling the distance between the two sides does not apply here, and war-weariness cannot judge when and where the deep-sea flagship will fire.

"Ark Royal!" As the deep sea approached an archipelago, war-weariness immediately cried out.

Ark Royal reacted more quickly, and almost in the moment of war-weariness, she had already operated the plane and began to attack.

Unlike Aramco's aircraft carriers, the Ark Royal is equipped with mostly old Swordfish, which is a very slow torpedo machine.

The deep sea also reacted very quickly, and did not have the slightest dullness due to previous mistakes. They turned on their anti-aircraft cannons, attacking the planes in the sky while doing their usual evasive maneuvers.

It was at this time that they entered the waters of the archipelago that war-weariness had coveted.

The formation of the deep sea was then pulled apart.

Sure enough, as I expected.

The thought crossed my mind with war-weariness.

The deep sea was scattered in units of six, and they tried their best to keep their original wheel-shaped formation, but they were still torn apart by the islands.

"If it were a conscious deep sea, this should not be the case." War-weariness is well aware of the discipline of the deep sea in Germany, and when they are conscious, even the discomfort of the islands does not disrupt their formation.

That's why the deep-sea flagship has been missing.

"Ark Royal, withdraw to resupply, that's clear enough." War-weariness said.

Regardless of the observation and attack, it was only a few hours of observation and attack, and the Royal Ark was already sweating profusely. The battle of the aircraft carrier is not as chic as imagined, they must be multitasking, both to operate the carrier-based aircraft, but also to observe the enemy through the line of sight of the carrier-based aircraft, and when the enemy is approaching, they must also pay attention to dodging. It's not that difficult to do all of these operations one by one, but when you do them at the same time, it's really exhausting.

With the war-weary order, the Ark Royal pulled back the remaining surviving carrier-based aircraft one by one.

The retreat of the carrier-based aircraft was a great relief to Tilbitz. The attack just now made her very embarrassed, the simple operating system could not instruct the ** to carry out complex operations in the deep sea, after entering the waters of the archipelago, the huge deep-sea troops began to dodge the islands according to instinct, resulting in a great chaos among the troops, which made it difficult for Tilbitz's air defense actions to be carried out.

Tirpitz was furious, a feeling she hadn't felt in a long time.

"What a garbage game!"

She couldn't help but complain.

"The sense of operation is so bad!"

(That...... Now it's a war, seriously! )

"Let's go!" War-weary but very happy, the shortcomings of the deep sea are very obvious, and she will not let go of this opportunity.

She commanded Ingilia's forces to leave the fortress.

"Do you want to engage the deep sea head-on on the surface of the sea?" Ark Royal, who was still leading the aircraft carrier force in the distance, was shocked, and she detected the movements of the war-weariness department in the network.

"I'm not that stupid, Ark Royal." War-weary smiled, "You help me watch these guys, I'm going to go around to the back, there is also an archipelago about 30 kilometers away from here, you are responsible for helping me drive the deep sea over." ”

"Rush over?"

"This deep-sea flagship has been using the most formal air defense evasion, and as long as the attack is right, she will unknowingly bring the deep sea over."

"But...... I ...... "Ark Royal is very unconfident, after all, this is her, no, the first large-scale operation carried out by the entire Ingilian aircraft carrier group."

"I believe in you." War-weariness said.

"But isn't it too ...... to abandon the fortress so easily" The Royal Ark pondered, and finally held back a word, "Too hasty?" ”

"What do you call giving up?" War-weariness said, looking back at the fading fortress of Liege, "It will be a good bait, an optimal point of vitality absorption." ”

"Alright! Ark Royal, don't talk so much on the battlefield! The Royal Ark wanted to say more, but was interrupted by war weariness, "Did the reconnaissance planes send out?" ”

"Sent out."

"Pay attention to my orders, give orders, and immediately persecute the deep sea."

"Yes. Our unit is always ready to attack. ”

After saying that, war-weariness did not speak again, and she kept observing the movements of the deep sea through the perspective of a reconnaissance aircraft. In order to reach the combat position before the deep sea reaches the predetermined position, the war weariness must cling to the deep sea to bypass, after all, there is a huge gap between their speed and the deep sea, and if they take a long detour in order to avoid the deep sea, this rare opportunity will be lost.

This is an extremely dangerous maneuver, and war-weariness is necessary to move forward quickly and avoid being discovered by the deep sea. These two contradict each other, but war exhaustion must be carried out at the same time, and to the limit.

War-weariness had been confronting Tirbitz on the fortress for almost a day, and it was the hottest time of the afternoon, and the scorching sun had scorched the sea, and War-weary felt the heat of the sea, and sweat ran down her forehead.

Hopefully, all the best.

War-weariness thought.
