Iron Germany

In the waters southeast of Pohnpei Island, on the aircraft carrier "Aries", the flagship of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet, the fleet commander, Admiral Konrad Abbrecht, and the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Oscar Kumetz, have not rested yet. Even though it was late, they didn't feel sleepy at all. How could they sleep when their own battleship formation was fighting fiercely with the island nation's fleet?

"Your Excellency, the battle situation seems to be very favorable to us! Our battleship formation has already sunk and severely damaged one of the capital ships of the island nation! When the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet arrives, we can destroy those island nation fleets." All the battleships have been killed." Lieutenant General Oscar Kumetz had a smile on his face.

The loss of hundreds of combat aircraft before made everyone feel a big stone in their hearts. Now, the fleet has an advantage in the duel, so they finally let out a sigh of relief.

As long as the fleet can win this naval battle, the final victory still belongs to the German Navy.

Admiral Konrad Abbrecht nodded: "It's not easy to kill all the battleships of the island fleet. However, it should be possible to kill their main force. Generally speaking, in this battle We still won!"

"After dawn, we will send fighter planes on Ponapei Island to attack. If we are lucky, we may be able to catch the islanders' aircraft carrier team. At that time, it is time to secure the victory in one fell swoop."

"Send seaplanes to take off before dawn, and focus on searching the northern and northwest waters of Ponapei Island. After finding the aircraft carrier fleet of the islanders, immediately take off shore-based aircraft and carrier-based aircraft to defeat them in one fell swoop!" Conrad ? Admiral Albrecht said.

With the strength of the German Navy, in addition to the more than 400 combat aircraft on Pohnpei Island, there are more than 600 carrier-based aircraft on the eight aircraft carriers. Once such a terrorist force discovers the aircraft carrier fleet of the island navy, it will be enough to crush them all.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander." Lieutenant General Oscar Kumetz nodded.

The top brass of the German Navy are still very satisfied that their own battleship formation can gain an advantage in the duel. It now appears that even if they did not build new battleships, they were able to suppress the enemy's advanced battleships by virtue of modification. This fully proves that these modifications are very successful. Being able to suppress the island nation's fleet now undoubtedly means that in future wars, they will not be at a disadvantage in the face of the advanced battleships of the US Navy. The worries in the hearts of many high-level German Navy can be put down.

After all, although the German Navy has decided to develop aircraft carriers, it has stopped building battleships. However, when the United States and island countries are building battleships on a large scale, many people still feel a little worried, thinking that their own battleships may not be able to support their own battleships only by relying on those old battleships. It now appears that those concerns were completely unnecessary. This naval battle has fully proved that the old battleships of the German Navy still have very strong combat effectiveness.

Now, they just need to wait until their own battleship formation wins and at the same time wait for dawn. Once the sun rises, it's time for the real decisive battle between the two sides. They all believed that with a huge advantage in hand, the German navy would definitely be able to win this decisive battle at sea.

On the aircraft carrier "Ibuki", the flagship of the joint fleet of the Japanese navy, the commander of the fleet, Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-Six, was also unable to sleep. Although the fleet is now in radio silence, the signal can still be received. Therefore, Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-Six is ​​very clear about the current situation of the battleship fleet. It is precisely because of this that the Fifty-Sixth Congress of Yamamoto fell into anxiety.

"Baga! One step is wrong! How can those old German battleships be so powerful? They are stronger than our cutting-edge battleships? Our battleship team has nothing to do with them. It is cheap. If this continues, what should we do? Once our capital ship team loses too much, it will undoubtedly be more difficult for us to win this battle!" Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-Six secretly thought.

Although before implementing this battle plan, he thought they had a great chance of winning. But now it seems that everything is not as he expected. If this continues, it may be very difficult for them to win.

"How is the situation on Yoshida-kun's side?" General Yamamoto Fifty-Six asked.

"Your Excellency, Commander, General Yoshida has led four 'Kii-class' battleships to catch up. They are now fighting the Germans! However, the situation on the battlefield is still not very favorable for us." Rear Admiral Takahashi Imo, Chief of Staff of the Joint Fleet Said.

"Baga! How can those old warships of the Germans be so powerful?" Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-Six couldn't understand this very much.

"Your Excellency, Commander, before the outbreak of the war, the Germans modernized and refitted the old battleships, which greatly improved the performance of these old battleships. The Germans already have a great advantage in the research and development of warships. .This may be the reason why their old battleships can have such powerful combat effectiveness!" Rear Admiral Takahashi Iwang sighed.

Originally, when Germany stopped building battleships and used those old battleships to fill up the number, all countries believed that Germany had voluntarily given up its capital ships. But unexpectedly, everyone was deceived by them. Even if the Germans didn't build new battleships, they just used those old battleships to refit them, and they still had very strong combat effectiveness. Although the performance of those old battleships is at a disadvantage in some aspects. But the overall performance is still at the leading level in the world. The cutting-edge battleships of other countries cannot compete with it.

General Yamamoto Fifty-Six was full of bitterness in his heart. The stronger the German navy, the less likely they were to win. This is not good news for them!

"Send a telegram to Yoshida-kun and let him win as much as possible!" General Yamamoto Fifty-Six ordered.

"Yes, General." Major General Takahashi Iwang nodded.

But they all know that the possibility of Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo winning is not too great.

"Nagumo-kun, the carrier-based aircraft unit is ready. Launch an attack after dawn, and the Germans must pay the price!" General Yamamoto Fifty-Six ordered. With the capital ship fleet unable to win, he can only pin his hopes on the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier fleet.
