Chapter 951: Shocking Changes (Part 2)

When the order for battle was issued, the entire sea began to boil! The German First Air Fleet, opposite the Royal Navy, was obviously ready for battle.

Countless fighter jets took off from the deck, and the first ones were dispatched were a large number of fighter jets. Those battleships and cruisers began to break away from their formation to form new combat formations, and adjusted their muzzles according to the compass to aim at the British navy on the sea.

"Switch to 130 degrees, speed 26 knots! Fire the gun Www.  . The face of the destiny is red. As a naval soldier, how can he not be excited to participate in such a large naval battle in this life?!

"Chirp...boom!boom!boom..." When the main gun and secondary gun on the battleship of the Schanehorst made a deafening roar, the warships such as the Gneisenno also began their own attacks on the British Navy.

The German warships actually launched the first attack, which surprised the British Navy. But after the shock, anger filled their hearts. Once upon a time, these damn German men dared to fire the first gun at the British Empire warships?!

"Switch to 150 degrees, speed of 28 knots! Fire the gun!!" When the German Navy's shells stirred up a dozen meters of water on the side of the warship's ship, the British also began to fight back against the German Navy.

Battleships and light cruisers began to leave the formation, and the main guns and secondary guns began to bombard the German Navy after calibration!

"Boom boom boom..." The Duke of York, the third ship of the British Royal Navy, first launched a counterattack against the German fleet.

This strike shows the foundation of the British Navy. The Germans' first round of volleys were all lost. The Duke of York's counterattack hit a front main gun turret of the German ship with a main gun shell!

"Boom!!" The huge explosion immediately made the flames of the Schanehorst soar into the sky. The hit turret exploded tragically, and immediately spewed out flames.

"Damn it! Go and put out the fire! Quickly!" A series of orders were issued. The damage stewards personnel on the Schanehorst immediately went out to repair the fire. These damage stewards personnel were extremely professional and calm, but in just over ten minutes they quickly controlled the fire.

But the main gun was destroyed, which caused the firepower of the Schanehorst to be sharply reduced at this time.

The 356mm main gun on the "Duke of York" caused great trauma to the Schanehorst. The consequence of this volley was that the smoke exhaust device of the Schanehorst's front main gun was destroyed. The entire front main gun turret was filled with smoke, and the gunners inside could not fight back under this situation.

But don't forget! There is also this gun on the Schanehorst. The gunners on these guns began to command the calculation of the ballistic adjustment degree. The concurrent guns fought back.

However, the aircraft launched the attack faster than the Schanehorst. All the fighters on the aircraft carrier had taken off at this time and began to hover against the British "Big European" carrier-based fighters that had also taken off.

"Big Europe" carrier-based fighter. Wingspan: 14.07 meters high: 4.32 meters. This carrier-based fighter that was put into service in 1938 can reach a maximum speed of 363km/h, and its weapons: five 7.62mm machine guns. It is currently the best carrier-based fighter in the UK.

On the other hand, Germany's BF109 carrier-based fighter jets basically continued the Air Force's approach. Some of the BF109 are e1 type, equipped with 4x7.92mmmg17 machine guns. They carry a total of 4,000 rounds of bullets.

Some of them are the latest e7 models, equipped with 2x7.92mmg17 machine guns and 2x20mmgff cannons. During the Battle of Britain, the fighters of the bf109s e3, e4, e7 and other fighters equipped with mgff cannons were discovered that the drum loading was too small.

Therefore, after a certain improvement, the mgff cannon can now barely load forty rounds. Two mgff cannons cannons load forty rounds.

In terms of firepower, the British large European carrier-based fighter has more machine guns than the BF109. However, in terms of bullet caliber and firepower, it is slightly inferior.

From the perspective of airspeed, air limit and flexibility, it is even stronger than the European score. So when the two meet, the result is...

"Bang bang...boom!!" The huge roar of machine cannons and explosion roars sounded over the combat waters, and the British army's proud fighter jets were chased by the extremely flexible bf109 and volleyed with machine cannons.

The 20mm caliber cannon is a nightmare for the Big European carrier-based fighter jets. Although they don’t have much ammunition, as long as they are aimed, they will basically have the fate of turning into a ball of fireworks.

The large European fighter jets suffered a lot in this kind of battle. The pilots on the German aircraft carrier were carefully selected and elite pilots of the former Air Force. After training, they became the dream charm of the British Navy.

"Damn it! Where are the other aircraft carriers?! Let them come as soon as possible!!" Cningham, the old sailor, couldn't hold back, and with his eyes, it was not difficult to see the advantage occupied by the German Navy.

That's those fighter jets. It's obvious that the large European carrier-based fighter jets equipped by the British Navy are not all opponents of these BF109s. Seeing the seven or eight large Europeans falling into groups of fireworks, Cningham knew it.

"Contact the Imperial Air Force immediately and tell them our coordinates! Please eliminate the fighter planes and come to support them immediately!" Cningham began to order without saying a word.

"Tell them, I don't want other fighter jets! But the Spitfire must come. We encountered the German BF109. If the Spitfire did not arrive, the Royal Navy of the British Empire would not have a high chance of winning."

The adjutant who recorded the order heard Cningham say this and couldn't help but shake his hand. Cningham raised his telescope and observed the situation of the war, saying, "Don't think I'm an alarmist, the Japanese's war example at Pearl Harbor has explained some problems. If we still hold on to the cannonism, it can only be sunk in the Atlantic Ocean. There is no other possibility."

"It is obvious that the Germans have touched the threshold for some aircraft carrier operations. At least they know that they should use fighters to clean up our fighter jets first, and then bombing! I can guarantee that if our fighter jets lose the ability to protect warships, we will face a head-to-toe bombing from the Germans!"

The adjutant couldn't help but sweat. Once the fleet was bombed, everyone would have thought of anything. He recorded Cningham's order, gave a military salute and hurried down to send a report.

"Chir...boom!!" A huge explosion roar was verifying Cningham's words. Following the explosion, Cningham looked at the huge flames burst out from the Duke of York in horror, and the smoke rising from the sky filled the sea area where the warship was located.

"Damn it! Can anyone tell me what happened?!" Cningham jumped up and roared, while the telecommunication officer next to him replied in a trembling voice.

"General, just now four German bombers attacked the "Duke of York". We saw the Germans using a huge bomb, and three of them fell into vacancies. But the Duke of York did not escape the last one..."

"Contact the Duke of York right now! I want to know their current situation and losses!" Cningham forced himself to calm down. He knew that nothing he did now would be helpful, and he could only hope that the British fleet and the Air Force Spitfire would arrive as soon as possible.

And now there is a fog on the Duke of York. This "margin" heavy rocket booster bomb hit the Duke of York's bridge. The bomb directly smashed through the bridge and then exploded in the middle of the ship.

Almost all the entire bridge was blown up and the radio was destroyed. Almost all the officers on the ship who could command the battle were killed, and the ship's express delivery began to descend due to the loss of control.

"Qiuchi...boom!boom!boom..." How could the Schanehorst miss such a good opportunity to take revenge? But the Schanehorst suddenly incited their sub-cannons and fired a volley at the Duke of York.

As the speed of the Duke of York had been reduced and even lost command, the attack of the Schánhorst achieved great results.

Two 150mm secondary artillery shells landed on the deck of the Duke of York, which led to the destruction of the Duke of York's boiler and the ammunition depot being hit. Amid the huge roar, the warship began to explode.

Screams and wails became the main theme of the Duke of York, and the Duke of York, which was blown up, began to sink slowly. The British sailors on the ship began to board the lifeboat and prepare to evacuate the warship.

"Damn...Damn..." Cningham kept murmuring on his flagship Ark Royal, the blue veins on his neck burst out, and his face was ferocious.

Although our side had lost a warship, the British did not seem to be shaken by fighting spirit. On the contrary, all the fighting spirit was stronger.

"Chirky chirp...bang boom boom..." The battleship Baham fired its own volley at the arrogant Schonhorst, but this time the luck was not on the side of the British.

The shells became far-range bombs and landed on the sea behind the Schanehorst. The huge caliber shells stirred up a dozen meters of water on the sea surface, and the sea water rushed to the warship and was wet.

"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." These luck finally stood on the German side. Gneisenno's main gun accurately hit the foreground of the Baham battleship.

The huge explosion immediately triggered a fire. The battleship Baham was forced to stop the attack and let the loss managers start repairing the battleship. The battle situation in the sky was not optimistic. More than twenty large European fighters fell tragically under the siege of the BF109. The British navies clearly saw that the bombers on the German aircraft carrier began to take off and rushed towards their own warships.

For a time, British morale fell sharply. Although the British Navy was still fighting, its confidence in winning was gradually shaken.

"Woo~~~" The whistle suddenly rang, and the British Navy's Athletics aircraft carrier, Eagle and Brave finally arrived at the battlefield.

As they came, there were the Royal Oak battleship, the Hood battleship, the Effingam heavy cruiser, and many other naval battleships.

Cningham's face finally looked a little better. Now the British and German sides are fighting for time. As long as the British fleet can hold these German navies, then when the entire British navy surrounds the German navy, these German navies will have to wait for death.

Of course, Cningham did not forget to calculate the corresponding time for the British Air Force. He absolutely believed that in order to protect the Navy, the Air Force would not be able to cherish its own strength. Without the Navy, the English Channel would become a joke.

The Germans can cross the strait at any time and launch a direct attack on the British mainland. The entire UK will also become an isolated island. By then, the UK will be really finished.

Even if the Air Force's Hugh Dowding disagreed with all the dispatch, Prime Minister Churchill would force him to send all the Spitfire fighters.

As long as we win this time, the entire German navy will be finished. Cunningham took a deep breath. As long as this battle is won, it will be impossible for Germany to rebuild the navy.

Cningham believes that all the surface ships of the entire German Navy have gathered here, and as long as they are sunk all of them, Germany will never be able to reach them on the sea.

"According to the report, the enemy's wèizhi was about 30 nautical miles westward than expected. The route of the British fleet has been confirmed..."

"The fleet is located in the lattice ab6365 area, and everyone enters a state of combat..."

"I have encountered the fleet! The lights of the enemy fleet are on.wèizhi is not determined..."

"Four shadows were discovered! Four destroyers have been confirmed, and this destroyer should be part of the fleet. The route is eastward and has not been discovered. It is following and waiting for an opportunity to attack..."

Dunitz lurked quietly in the sea like a real wolf. Although the fighting outside was hot, the commander of the sea wolf did not issue any attack orders.

Observe, wait. This is the order he gave to the sea wolves. Waiting is a torment. But Denitz knew that waiting now is a must. The main force of the British fleet has not yet fully entered the encirclement. If the submarine is exposed at this time, it will not be good news for the submarine force.

He needed to wait for all the main battleships of the British Navy to enter the encirclement before he could spread the deadly fangs of the sea wolf to tear the ships to pieces.

"Young men, waiting is the most training man. We cannot tell our existence before tearing the enemy apart." In order to stabilize the hearts of the entire submarine force, Denitz sent this message.

"Silence, silence, wait. That's what we are going to do now." Denitz said in the telegram: "When we show our fangs, we must be the time when these British people give their blood!"

Cningham didn't know the arrival of his main fleet, so Denitz at the bottom of the water gave the order to fight. The first ship to be targeted was the Ark Royal aircraft carrier he was staying at!

"Young men! It's time to fight back. We want to tell those damn Germans! Our Royal Navy of the British Empire is the master of this sea area, and they are only worthy of feeding fish under the sea!"

Cningham was constantly boosting morale, and the main fleet that had already arrived on the battlefield cheered up the British Navy, which was sluggish in morale, and the roar of artillery immediately resounded through the sea area, and the fighter jets on board the aircraft carriers continued to take off and try to defeat the German fighter jets.

"Buzz..." In the UK, countless fighter jets at the airport began to take off under the command of ground crews. And Xiu Daoding looked at the fighter jets with a gloomy face.

Cningham guessed correctly. Hugh Dowding was not willing to send all the powerful Spitfire fighter jets in his hands to support the navy. In his opinion, the Air Force must retain some of its strength to defend the British mainland.

"General Hugh Dowding! You must know that if the navy is severely damaged, then Britain's defense will become meaningless!" Churchill roared at Hugh Dowding at the combat meeting.

"Whether you are willing or not, the fire-breathing must be dispatched to help the Navy win this battle! If the Navy is completely defeated there, there is no essential difference between losing the coastline of the British Empire and being occupied!"

Hugh Dowding didn't know the importance of naval warfare, but he believed that the Air Force could also defend Britain. From Churchill's standpoint, if there was no naval, the English Channel would no longer be a natural danger, and the Germans could directly carry out landing operations against Britain.

The most terrifying thing is that Britain will lose its ability to supply seas from then on. The victorious German navy will continue to expand their size and then continue to attack the fleets that try to send supplies to Britain.

By then, Britain would really become an isolated island. As a country with rising maritime power, the parliament did not hesitate to go Churchill's request and rejected Hugh Dowding's request.

Even the decision of the parliament was further taken, requiring all British Air Force fighter jets to take off immediately to the waters designated by Cningham for support. Out of fear of being occupied by Germany, the parliamentarians chose to dispatch the air force in full without hesitation.

"Swoosh swish swish swish swish...boom!boom!boom..." Several water marks suddenly passed through the sea. Before the Kalibudis light cruiser that came to support had time to launch a shelling bombardment, he suddenly exploded.

"Damn it! The submarine installed by the Germans here!!" The old sailor Cningham roared suddenly as he looked at the sunken Kalibudis.

"Tell all ships, beware of torpedoes! The German submarine troops lurk here..."

"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." Before Cningham finished speaking, the Royal Ark was shocked suddenly. Cningham felt a chill in his heart, and he realized that his Royal Ark was targeted.

It is even possible that the Germans set their sights on their flagship early in the morning, which is the bombardment effect caused by at least five torpedoes. In other words, the Germans have long been ambushing here!

"Quick! It has not sunk yet, load and launch it immediately!!" Dunitz observed the situation of the Ark Royal. Although it had exploded and caught fire, the Ark Royal obviously did not suffer any serious damage.

While giving orders, Denitz was scolding the damn R&D department, and even the torpedo problem could not be solved. Just now, the submarine force directly launched more than 20 torpedoes at the Royal Ark, but only five were fired. (To be continued...)
