Chapter 640: Ambush Bismarck
Two days later, entering the German fleet in ambush in the Danish Channel, a heavy cruiser of the British Royal Navy appeared on the starboard side. According to the book demon, it was the new commander of the British Home Fleet, Admiral John Tovey, who had been deployed in advance on the heavy cruiser "Sufk" (also known as "Suffolk") in the Danish Strait. The heavy cruiser was only 13 km from the German giant!
In fact, there was also a heavy cruiser 'Norfolk' on the port side of the two German giants, but it was covered by a dense fog and was not detected. Strangely, this thick fog even concealed the detection of the 'Eye of the Abyss' and the 'Eye of Insight'......
In a short time, the heavy cruiser also shrank into a thick fog......
More than an hour later, the British heavy cruiser poked its head out of the dense fog and fired a salvo at the German heavy cruiser "Prince Eugen"! That "Rumble! The sound of the cannon shook the glaciers where Zhang Fan's alchemy battleship was taking refuge, and pieces of huge ice slipped from the tip of the iceberg, almost hitting the back armor of the alchemy battleship! Frightened, the 'Eye of Insight' hurriedly manipulated the alchemy battleship to avoid this dangerous area from afar. Dive into deep water, go around to the safety of the rear of the German fleet, and lay in ambush.
The British heavy cruiser did not attack the main ship 'Bismarck', presumably estimating that its main gun shells would not be able to penetrate the armor of the opponent's battleship, so it gave up attacking the opponent's main ship. Just entangled with heavy cruisers of the same class as themselves.
At this time, dozens of gun barrels of the battleship 'Bismarck' rotated, facing their flanks. The British heavy cruisers were in such a poor position that they were facing all the flank fire of the German battleships, which was the best T-line position in naval battles! That is, to use the full firepower of the flanks of one's own battleship to face the fire of the opponent's bow.
In less than two minutes, the 'Bismarck' fired five salvos! What a fast gun! The German giant ship used light, high-speed armor-piercing shells. It's just a pity that the gunner used too much force, and three salvos were far past the British battleship, blasting a piece of drift ice into pieces. There were also two salvos, and the shells exploded a column of water more than ten meters high not far from the British battleship.
When the British battleship saw that the opponent's firepower was super fierce and that the battle position was unfavorable to it, the British battleship knew that it was invincible, and immediately released a large smoke screen and hid in the dense fog again.
Just when Zhang Fan thought that the two sides would take a break, suddenly the 'Eye of Insight' excitedly transmitted the image. I saw four wooden kites and a cyborg mantis rushing down from the clouds abruptly, shooting at the 'Bismarck'!
Ken! This must be the best time for a clever ghost like Akon! Take advantage of the fact that the German battleships have just driven away the British and are at their most lax, launch a surprise attack! It's just that the firepower of this wooden kite is so thin, in the face of the enemy's armored giant ship, what is the possibility of causing the opponent to be harmed? Unless the Skeleton Kite's Flesh Bomb ......
However, Akon did not let the wooden kite drop the flesh bomb, but let the four wooden kite cover the cyborg mantis, attacking and destroying the search radar at the front end of the 'Bismarck'! This is tantamount to gouging out the eyes of this giant ship!
I saw that four wooden kites were attacking in turn over the 'Bismarck', and eight dark golden light bullets, even with thunder light, swept the deck of the giant ship, shooting only the sailors on those ships with nowhere to hide! These spiritual bullets ignore defenses! And taking advantage of the anti-aircraft machine gun array on the German giant ship, they began to track and shoot at these four wooden kites......
Yao Ji drove the cyborg mantis in a flash, standing on the high-rise antenna on the deck, the mantis slashed those antenna radars with two sickles, as if chopping wood on a steel giant tree, a tooth-souring "sonorous!" In the middle of the sound, the square iron mesh radar was cut off by the praying mantis and smashed on the deck of the giant ship!
The Germans were so frustrated that they mobilized their anti-aircraft guns and fired fiercely at the cyborg mantis. But because this strange flying monster was so close to the deck superstructure, the gunners were afraid of hurting the parts of the battleship, and the bullets flew past the cyborg mantis. Failed to hurt Yaohime and Dark Sakura.
"Mission accomplished, everyone!" Akon's voice rang in the hearts of the team members.
It turns out that they have received a scene mission! Zhang Fan was excited in his heart, and immediately shouted: "Well done!" "Then he ordered the 'Eye of Insight' to control the alchemy battleship to float, and aimed at the 'Bismarck' and fired a spiritual torpedo, and the two mortar cannons 'Abyss Hammer' also threw a circular light projectile and smashed it on the deck of the 'Bismarck'!
For a time, the hull of the 'Bismarck' shook, but it was only a shock, and there was not much damage. But this gave Akon and them time to rush into the clouds, and after Zhang Fan struck a blow, he immediately dived and hid behind the glacier. The 'Bismarck' was hit inexplicably and was about to look for the attacker, but was informed by the 'Prinz Eugen' that a British battleship had appeared......
The Bismarck had to abandon the search for the strange striker and instead rushed to the British heavy cruiser, but the Sufk had already fled and fled 15 nautical miles.
The team communication immediately became lively, and after the two sides parted with each other, Yao Ji and Dark Sakura were even more chattering, and they were stunned to ask Zhang Fan so much that they didn't know who to answer.
The two sides managed to control the chaos after Green Wing shouted silence. It was up to Akon to inform Zhang Fan of the events after leaving the team. Then the Green Wing recounted the encounter with Akon in the port of Dover, and the two sides joined forces to join the British air force on the opposite shore. It was a fight! Both sides suffered heavy losses.
Nearly a third of the bombers were destroyed by the British air raid forces, all of which did not have time to take off from the ground at the airfield. A fifth of the fighters were also consumed in this air raid! It's a big win! However, the second-echelon bomber group sent by Britain was stubbornly intercepted by fighters mobilized from the German mainland and the surviving fighters of the first wave of air raids, and the air raids on the ports along the English Channel did not cause much damage. Even so, the German transports in the harbor suffered heavy losses, and it may be difficult to organize a large-scale landing on the British mainland in a short period of time......
Even so, the British lost about forty bombers and more than thirty fighters, but they destroyed nearly a quarter of Germany's air force! And most of them are bombers capable of sabotaging the British mainland! In this way, Hitler and Goering's air raids will be greatly limited. At the very least, the scene of the 'Battle of Britain' this time is much easier to experience than the original history, and Nazi Germany will organize a decent air raid, and the number of bombers will become a big problem.
However, this battle also exposed the Liliang of the British Royal Air Force, and the loss of aircraft exceeded the total number of fighter losses since July 10, and more importantly, this time it was not a home operation, so those pilots who were shot down may not be able to survive. And when fighting on home, downed pilots can be saved.
This is also a big reason why the 'Battle of Britain Air Battle' was able to hold out until the victory of Zuihou. In history, the British lost more than 400 good pilots in the 'Battle of Britain', while Germany lost thousands!
"But if it's not an air battle to shoot down an enemy plane, it can't be counted. Otherwise, our aircraft is not only a real trump card, but also a super trump card! Akon said proudly. And the ring-bearers of the opposing camp also participated in this blockade, and the two-layer plane was almost shot down, and we saved them once......"
The battle in the air, the scene was so fierce that he was still a little scared when he thought about it now. The German fighters who survived the British bombing, like madmen, inflicted a death onslaught on the British fighters! It is better to die with the British fighters than to escape! In particular, those German fighters who rushed over from the homeland were simply red-eyed, and with the wrath of Hitler, they attacked the British bomber formation at all costs!
Even when they run out of fuel, they won't back down! After the bomb is exhausted, it will hit directly! It was precisely because of the desperate blocking of these German fighter pilots that the second batch of bomber formations could not continue to expand the results of air raids! Otherwise, this 'Battle of Britain' would have ended prematurely because all the German bombers were blown up!
Even so, in a short period of time, the Germans may have been able to organize a decent air raid! This counterattack made the British government and the opposition rejoice! It's just that their combat heroes have received a new mission, running to the cold and lonely North Atlantic to intercept the German battleship 'Bismarck'.
Just after the British Royal Naval Aviation and British agents discovered the information that the battleship "Bismarck" had gone to sea, they immediately organized the interception of the largest German warship. The achievements of the Royal Air Force made the Royal Navy breathe a sigh of relief, if there were no achievements, the Admiralty would not be able to raise its head in front of the Air Force in the future, and the budget would be much less.
Akon, a highly decorated foreign flying team, was temporarily seconded to the naval aviation unit of the British Home Fleet and was attached to the aircraft carrier "Victory" to participate in the hunt for the "Bismarck." That's why there was a scenario mission to track and strike the 'Bismarck' battleship search radar.
Of course, Akon also tried his best to get this secondment, otherwise the Royal Air Force of Port Dover would never let them go. Because, Akon knew that once Zhang Fan got the hint from the scene, he would inevitably follow the 'Bismarck'. And in terms of Zhang Fan's fortune, the alchemy battleship he was on could easily sail on the same route as the 'Bismarck'.
As long as he finds the 'Bismarck', he will be able to rendezvous with Zhang Fan. Sure enough, as soon as he completed the scene task, he received a message from the boss that if this guy killed the big guy halfway, it would take a while for everyone to meet.
