"General, should we send our battleships to reinforce the French and Italian navies? If the Germans are allowed to sink their battleships, the next decisive battle will probably be very unfavorable to us!" Lieutenant General David Beatty suggested road.
Admiral John Jellicoe nodded: "Okay, let's send some small and medium-sized warships there. However, our own air defense must be strengthened."
Although, the navies of the three countries formed a joint fleet. Admiral John Jellicoe, as the commander of the United Fleet, should naturally be fair. But don't forget that Admiral John Jellicoe was also British. Therefore, he will involuntarily put the interests of the Royal Navy first.
Even though, the British Navy sent some small and medium-sized warships to help the French Navy and the Italian Navy in air defense. However, the anti-aircraft firepower installed on these small and medium-sized warships is not much. Using it scattered in this way will not have any effect at all. The carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy can easily seize the loopholes and launch attacks on the capital ships of the French Navy and the Italian Navy.
The "Paris" battleship, as the third ship of the "Guba-class" battleship, became the second battleship sunk among the capital ships of the French Navy. Under the siege of the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, the battleship suffered four torpedoes and two bombs.
After the battleship 'Paris', the battleship 'Provence' followed in his footsteps. As a result, the French Navy lost three battleships in this battle.
After the Italian Navy lost the battleship "Dante", the battleship "Julio Cesar" was also sunk after being hit by 5 torpedoes. As a result, the Italian Navy lost two warships in this battle.
At this time, the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy had dropped all the bombs and torpedoes and had to return.
Although, they still have something to say. But without bombs and torpedoes, they can't just fly planes to hit enemy ships, right? After returning directly to the aircraft carrier, fuel was refilled, bombs and torpedoes were added, and the attack could be continued.
During this wave of attacks, they have already sunk five battleships of the United Fleet. The results of such a battle are undoubtedly very fruitful. It directly reduced the number of capital ships of the United Fleet from 36 to 31. Three fewer than the 34 ships of the German Navy. This makes them have no advantage at all in terms of the number of capital ships. In the next battle, if you want to defeat the German navy and win, it will be even more difficult.
Admiral John Jellicoe looked at the German fighter planes in the distance, his face was so gloomy that water dripped out.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the loss is heavy! After losing five battleships, can we still defeat the Germans in the next duel?" Lieutenant General David Betty shook his head and smiled wryly. Now he is no longer as confident as before.
"I don't know either. Maybe we shouldn't have fought the Germans at all." Admiral John Jellicoe said.
There is no doubt that in this decisive battle, the possibility of the British navy's failure has become very high.
"Your Excellency, even if we want to give up now, it is unlikely. The German main fleet is not far away from us. If we retreat, they will definitely pursue it with all their strength. At that time, we will have to retreat to Ireland Go to sea. In this case, although the main force of the United Fleet can be kept, in fact, this battle has been lost. France and Italy will not last long." Lieutenant General David Beatty said.
Once they fail to win this battle, the defeat of France and Italy will be inevitable. At that time, only Britain will be left alone to fight against Germany. The United Kingdom now has no such strength at all.
"I know, so, no matter what, this battle must continue! We must do our best to defeat the Germans. Only in that way, our country will have a chance of survival." John Jellicoe entered will say.
The combined fleet of the Allied Powers was attacked by this wave of German carrier-based aircraft, and suffered heavy losses. The morale of the fleet is about to drop to freezing point. Especially the French navy and the Italian navy, their fighting will was not as good as the British navy. It is God's blessing that they did not collapse after suffering heavy losses. If there is another wave of such attacks from the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, no one dares to explode what will happen.
For the German Navy, Admiral Reinhardt Scheer, Lieutenant Admiral Hipper, and Lieutenant Admiral Spee all laughed after receiving the news that the carrier-based aircraft forces had sunk five battleships of the Allied Fleet.
"Your Excellency, Commander, they only have 31 battleships left, three less than us. There will be no suspense in the next decisive battle, and we will definitely defeat them completely!" Lieutenant General Spei said confidently.
Admiral Reinhard Scheer nodded: "The aircraft carrier's attack has only completed one wave. Soon, they will start the second wave of strikes. I hope their attack in this round Among them, more enemy ships can be sunk. In this case, our chances of winning will be even greater!"
"I really didn't expect that the carrier-based aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier would be so powerful. It seems that it is inevitable that the aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft will replace battleships and battlecruisers and become the protagonists of future naval battles." Xie Pei Lieutenant General Er sighed.
"Yes, even in certain specific battlefield environments, battleships and battlecruisers can still play a certain role. However, there is no doubt that the main force of naval warfare will soon become an aircraft carrier." Speizhong Will also say.
"This is undoubtedly a good thing for the Imperial Navy. After all, we are far ahead of other countries in terms of aircraft carriers. In addition to the two 'Pioneer-class' aircraft carriers, the subsequent four 'William the Great-class' aircraft carriers are very It will be in service soon. By then, the strength of the Imperial Navy will be further improved!" said Admiral Reinhard Scheer.
Although the strength of the German navy is now the number one in the world, this does not mean that there is no room for improvement in their strength. On the contrary, after more aircraft carriers are in service, the strength of the German navy will be continuously improved. It will undoubtedly be more difficult for other countries to challenge Germany.
Aircraft carriers have become the protagonists in naval battles. With the continuous victory of the German Navy's aircraft carriers, it has become an irreversible trend.
