Iron Germany

Prince Heinrich, third child of Frederick III and younger brother of Wilhelm II. Before that, he served in the German Navy. Served as Commander of the High Seas Fleet and Attorney General of the Navy.

When Prince Heinrich was about to retire, Qin Tian found him and hoped that he would be the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet. Although Prince Heinrich has never seen the new weapon of the aircraft carrier, he is also very interested. In particular, Qin Tian described to him that the future aircraft carrier will become the absolute main force of the navy, which made Prince Heinrich fascinated.

Because of this, Prince Heinrich accepted Qin Tian's invitation and became the first commander of the German Navy's aircraft carrier fleet. It can be said that the aircraft carrier fleet can quickly form combat effectiveness, and Prince Heinrich has made a lot of efforts. Now is the time to see the rewards.

Less than 20 minutes after Admiral Reinhard Scheer's order was issued, the first carrier-based aircraft took off from the aircraft carrier 'Pioneer'. Immediately afterwards, the "Victory" aircraft carrier also began to take off carrier-based aircraft.

The first ones to take off were all light fighter jets. The torpedo attack planes were heavier and needed a longer runway, so they took off last.

Now, the two aircraft carriers of the German Navy only carry two types of carrier-based aircraft, fighter jets and torpedo attack aircraft. As for Qin Tian's preferred dive bomber, it has not been successfully developed due to technical constraints. If ordinary bombers are used for horizontal bombing, it is undoubtedly very difficult to hit a high-speed moving target on the sea. In contrast, torpedo aircraft are undoubtedly a greater threat to surface warships. Even light aviation torpedoes can pose a deadly threat to small and medium-sized warships. Even if the armor of the battleship is a little weaker, it may not be able to withstand it.

Watching one after another carrier-based aircraft soaring from the deck, hovering over the aircraft carrier, waiting for other fighters to form a formation, Prince Heinrich was very excited.

"At first, I thought that I would never have the opportunity to participate in the decisive battle with the British Navy. But I didn't expect that I would be able to participate in it again in this way. Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for allowing me to fulfill my wish. May God bless you The aircraft carrier fleet of the Imperial Navy can win the battle." Prince Heinrich said secretly.

As an admiral who also served as the commander of the High Seas Fleet, how could he not want to participate in the decisive battle with the Royal Navy? Especially when the German navy has already taken advantage, it is undoubtedly more hopeful that it can leave its name in this war.

Because of the range of the current fighter jets, half of the fighter jets that took off from the aircraft carrier 'Pioneer' and the aircraft carrier 'Victory' flew westward after completing their formation. After the remaining fighters take off, they will be regrouped.

Both the "Pioneer" aircraft carrier and the "Victory" aircraft carrier can only carry 48 carrier-based aircraft. This is mainly because the Atlantic Ocean has high winds and waves and is not as calm as the Pacific Ocean, so the aircraft carrier must consider the sea conditions here. Naturally, it is impossible for each aircraft carrier to carry a large number of carrier-based aircraft like the United States and Japan in another time and space. up.

The first batch of carrier-based aircraft included 24 fighter jets and 24 torpedo attack aircraft. The second batch of 48 carrier-based aircraft are all torpedo attack aircraft.

In the absence of an aviation force in the British Navy, the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force hardly had to compete with them for air supremacy. In addition, the warships of the British Navy did not have anti-aircraft weapons, which made it almost unnecessary for the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy to be attacked. The only thing they have to do is find the British Navy and launch an attack.

Of course, with the guidance of the German Navy's battlecruiser force, finding the main fleet of the British Navy is not a problem at all. This also made this attack completely easy.

Time passed by, and the carrier-based aircraft that took off from the aircraft carrier of the German Navy gradually approached the main fleet of the British Navy. Originally, for these carrier-based aircraft, it only took half an hour to cover a distance of 100 kilometers.

Admiral John Jellicoe and Vice Admiral David Beatty were quietly waiting for the decisive battle on the battleship 'Revenge', the flagship of the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet. They knew that the main fleet of the German Navy must be on its way and would encounter them soon. As long as this decisive battle is over, no matter whether they win or lose, their mission will also be over.

"Your Excellency, the German battlecruisers hang us in front of us. It is estimated that their main fleet will appear soon." Lieutenant General David Beatty said.

Admiral John Jellicoe nodded: "The decisive battle between us and the Germans is inevitable. Now, we still have 20 battleships, and the Germans still have 24 battleships and 12 battlecruisers. 1.8 times. I only hope that we can kill more than 20 German capital ships in this battle. In this way, our crisis can be resolved." Admiral John Jellicoe said.

Sinking twenty capital ships of the German Navy was the goal of Admiral John Jellicoe. In that case, even they would be completely sunk. However, the strength of the German navy, which still has more than a dozen capital ships, has been greatly weakened. It is impossible to block the United Kingdom again. In addition, the United States, which has been suppressed by the Germans, will inevitably take the opportunity to intervene. This will buy enough time for the United Kingdom, and after the construction of their follow-up capital ship is completed, they can fight the German Navy again. By that time, they may not necessarily fail again.

"Your Excellency, it is very difficult to sink more than twenty German capital ships. However, even if we can sink fifteen of them, that would be a rare victory." Lieutenant General David Beatty said.

The strength of the German Navy ranks first in the world. However, if the British navy can cause them heavy losses, then other countries may no longer be afraid of the German navy. At that time, the British Navy will naturally have a chance.

Admiral John Jellicoe nodded.

"Yes, even by sinking fifteen of their capital ships, we have severely damaged the Germans. I know that it is very difficult to defeat the Germans. However, it should still be very possible to severely damage them. After all, We dare to fight them!" John Jellicoe said.
