Chapter 2123: 2 hands ready

"That's it, because of the fearlessness and sacrifice of the Seventh Destroyer Squadron, the Earl's fleet survived. Although the conditions of the other two battleships were terrible, only one was sunk!" Lieutenant General Scheer said.

　　 "In this case, the British did not succeed in this operation." Hipper said on the side.

"Yes, so the situation is better than we thought." Ruprecht thought for a while and continued: "If the British are gone, then tonight's action is just a small failure for us. Tomorrow we It is still possible to organize a considerable fleet into the Strait of Dover. If the British want to invalidate our maritime blockade, they can only keep the Earl’s remaining warships! And if this is the case, at least their retreat will be delayed. time!"

Ruprecht walked a few steps to the chart, used a slide rule to re-estimate the British route, and said: "If the British have not left the safety line of the Strait of Dover at 4 o'clock in the morning, Then at dawn, the opponent's position can only be here! And this distance is far from the safety zone provided by the British Air Force, but very close to the base of our land-based air force, we have a chance! With the use of aircraft carriers, you can send this British fleet to the bottom of the sea!"

　　 "If the British fleet can be killed without using aircraft carriers, this would be a very good choice." Admiral Scheer was also moved. It is not that Admiral Scheer does not trust the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers, but because he is worried that if the German Navy's last killer is exposed, it may have extremely adverse effects on future decisive battles. After all, secret weapons are used for the first time. When the power is the greatest!

"So now there are two questions. The first question is whether the earl can hold the British, and the second question is whether the British will choose to accept it when they meet?" Admiral Hipper thought for a while and continued: "If possible, my fast fleet can cover the aircraft carrier squadron to enter the designated position for standby according to the scheduled plan, and the land-based aviation can also be ready to take action at any time. Let's take a double insurance."

　　 "I think it can." Admiral Scheer nodded and said.

"So be it." Ruprecht agreed to this. From now on, the German Navy and the Bavarian Air Force will prepare for the ambush tomorrow morning. The navy handed it over to Admiral Scheer and Greece. Admiral Pell and Lieutenant General Rodhart, the commander of the Naval Aircraft Carrier Squadron, are responsible for planning, while Crown Prince Ruprecht discusses the issue of the Army Air Force with General Halder, the Air Force Director of the Kingdom of Bavaria.

The reason why the crown prince decided to discuss the plan with the Luji Air Force was largely because he believed that Earl Spey could entangle the British, and at the same time believed that the British fleet command would not easily let go of the opportunity tonight. ! The Spey fleet is now the bait, and the German air force in the daytime is the hook. So now it depends on whether the British fish ate the bait and decoupled, or was it caught directly by the crown prince? ! Unexpectedly, the crown prince feels that the land-based aviation team is more likely to kill the British fleet tomorrow!

Of course, this is not simply the so-called feeling that is largely based on data analysis. Let alone the confrontation in the Strait area, from a purely hardware perspective, the heavy aircraft owned by land-based aviation is not in attack power. The current carrier-based aircraft can be compared. Not to mention, the K8 bomber, with two 750KG torpedoes, has two levels stronger than the German navy's carrier-borne torpedoes... In terms of firepower, the most advanced torpedo that the latter can equip is only 600KG! And only one shot!

Admiral Halder’s professional capabilities are still very trustworthy. After the navy has calculated the possible routes and areas of the British fleet, Admiral Halder quickly arranged the reconnaissance fleet and bomber attack waves, and at the same time, The emergence of the British fighter force is also ready for defense.

"The most serious interference to the investigation in the North Sea in the morning is the morning fog. If you are investigating at high altitude, it may be a little troublesome, but it does not matter. We can arrange a large number of seaplanes to conduct investigations at a height close to the sea. If possible, I also hope that we A few more submarines can be arranged on the only way for the British, not to be able to attack the opponent, as long as they can find their general whereabouts." Admiral Halder said.

　　 "This is okay, continue." Ruprech nodded and said.

"Attack aircraft group? The Neuschwanstein Air Force can fully undertake the attack task, but the naval reconnaissance aircraft team sent a request just now, hoping that they can participate in the guidance of this battle and prepare for the actual combat in the future." Said the admiral.

"Haha, is this a two-sided bet?" Ruprecht said with a smile. Each aircraft carrier of the German Navy's aircraft carrier squadron is equipped with a reconnaissance/fighter squadron~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The number is about 12 , In the future campaign plan, 60 reconnaissance/fighters on these 5 aircraft carriers will be responsible for more than 50% of the reconnaissance missions! And this time, because it is dealing with a small British fleet, and the direction and position of the opponent can almost be predicted, so naturally there is no need for as many as 60 reconnaissance aircraft to search, and considering that it is likely to be landed The base aviation team cut the Hu, so Lieutenant Admiral Rodhart put forward the idea of ​​letting some naval carrier aircraft join the land-based aviation team to conduct guidance together. No matter who eventually caught the British fleet, they can train the German navy aircraft carrier. Team search and guidance capabilities.

"Good idea, you can make arrangements for details." The crown prince will naturally not interfere with this behavior. After all, he knew very well that until World War II, the reconnaissance and guidance of carrier-based aircraft forces were of very high technical level. thing!

In fact, flipping through the history of naval battles, the reconnaissance aircraft sent out before the aircraft carriers of the two sides battled and did not find the opponent's fleet, or found it, but it is more common for the attacker fleet to fail to find the opponent's aircraft carrier fleet. After all, the combat distance of the aircraft carriers is Hundreds of kilometers away, in the era without GPS and Beidou, it is very difficult for an airplane to locate itself when flying over the vast ocean. Even if you find the opponent’s fleet, how do you locate the opponent’s position and take this data It is also very difficult to pass back! After all, your own aircraft carrier fleet must also be on the move. It is too difficult to locate in such a constantly moving situation!
