Iron Germany

On the aircraft carrier "Pioneer", the flagship of the German Navy's aircraft carrier formation, the formation commander, Marshal Prince Heinrich, is waiting for the fleet to return. Although, in the previous training, the performance of the carrier-based aircraft unit was very good. However, before he really succeeded, he was also a little worried. After all, this is actual combat, not the previous exercise training.

However, the appearance of the German Navy aircraft carrier fleet this time can be described as perfect. The 24 fighter jets and 72 torpedo attack planes launched from the two aircraft carriers directly sank six battleships of the British Navy without any losses. Because the British fleet has no weapons capable of shooting into the air at all, these carrier-based aircraft can leave swaggeringly after launching an attack.

An hour later, the first batch of carrier-based aircraft to take off returned one after another. At the same time, Marshal Prince Heinrich also learned of the battle. After knowing that they had sunk the battleship Bellerophon of the British Navy, and also severely damaged the battleships "Magnificent" and "Reckless", Prince Marshal Heinrich had been hanging in his heart, and finally put it back. It's in the stomach. The first batch of carrier-based aircraft to take off is half of fighters and half of torpedo attack aircraft. The second batch of carrier-based aircraft that took off were all torpedo attack aircraft. No need to think about it, the second batch of carrier-based aircraft will definitely achieve greater results.

Sure enough, before the second batch of carrier-based aircraft returned, Marshal Prince Heinrich learned of their results. Not only the battleships "magnificent" and "reckless" were sunk, but also three "St. Vincent-class" battleships were also sunk. This is undoubtedly a very perfect victory for the aircraft carrier fleet.

On the battleship 'Bavaria', the flagship of the German Navy's High Seas Fleet, Admiral Reinhard Scheer's face was full of smiles.

"His Royal Highness said it well. The combination of an aircraft carrier and a carrier-based aircraft is indeed the absolute main force of future naval warfare! Right now, only a carrier-based aircraft that can only carry light aviation torpedoes can play such a big role. Wait until the future With the development of carrier-based aircraft capable of carrying medium-sized torpedoes and heavy-duty torpedoes, wouldn't the power of carrier-based aircraft be further improved? Fortunately, the Imperial Navy once again came to the forefront of the world. Before they thought of this aspect , We already have the most mature and powerful aircraft carrier formation in the world." Admiral Reinhard Scheer sighed.

As the commander of the High Seas Fleet, Admiral Reinhard Scheer admired Qin Tian's forward vision very much. The German navy has become extremely powerful because of Qin Tian, ​​otherwise, they would never have had the opportunity to beat the Royal Navy like now. Not to mention, Qin Tian has also planned the future development path of the German Navy, which will make it easier for the German Navy to consolidate its maritime hegemony in the future.

Once the German Navy has a larger aircraft carrier fleet and more advanced carrier-based aircraft, will other countries still have a chance to challenge the German Empire's maritime hegemony? That is obviously impossible.

Although, the German Navy now only has two aircraft carriers. However, the next batch of four new aircraft carriers is already under construction. The new type of aircraft carrier will have a larger displacement and be able to carry more fighters, so it will naturally have more powerful attack power.

"Your Excellency, Commander, His Royal Highness asked, is it necessary for the aircraft carrier to launch a second strike?" The staff officer reported to Admiral Reinhardt Scheer.

"Tell His Royal Highness, it will not be used for the time being. The British have not many battleships left. What's more, except for the battleship 'Hercules', the rest of the warships are super dreadnoughts with stronger defense. The carrier-based aircraft It is difficult to pose any threat to light aviation torpedoes. The next battle will be left to us." Admiral Reinhard Scheer said.

"Yes, General." The staff officer immediately went to send a telegram.

Admiral Reinhardt Scheer had another meaning in mind, that is, if all the warships of the British Navy were sunk by the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier, then what would be the result of their more than twenty battleships? Didn't get any? They went out to sea with such great fanfare for a decisive battle with the British navy, but in the end they just went out to sea for fun. In that case, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?

"Order the battlecruiser formation and continue to monitor the British. The main fleet will immediately go south and prepare for a decisive battle with the British. Now, the British have only 14 battleships left. The final victory must belong to us!" Reinha Admiral Te Scheer is full of confidence in this.

Among the remaining 14 battleships of the British Navy, there are 6 'Revenge-class' battleships, three 'Orion-class' battleships, plus 'King George V', 'Agincourt', 'Ireland' HMS Canada, HMS Canada and HMS Hercules. Although its strength is not weak, it is undoubtedly much inferior to the main force of the German Navy's High Seas Fleet.

Among the 24 battleships of the High Seas Fleet, five 'Bavaria-class' battleships and five 'King-class' battleships are equipped with 380 mm main guns, 5 'Caesar-class' battleships and 5 'Helgoland-class' The battleships are all equipped with 343mm main guns, and the four 'Nassau-class' battleships are all equipped with 305mm main guns.

Compared with the British Royal Navy's Grand Fleet, the German Navy's High Seas Fleet has an absolute advantage not only in the number of battleships. In terms of single-ship performance, it also has an overwhelming advantage. Although the Royal Navy still has a numerical advantage in small and medium warships. However, relying on those battleships alone to defeat the mighty High Seas Fleet is undoubtedly a dream. Therefore, Reinhard Scheer can confidently believe that they will win the next battle.

Under the command of Admiral Reinhard Scheer, the main fleet of the High Seas Fleet began to move south quickly. The officers and soldiers of the German Navy were full of fighting spirit. They seemed to be ready to welcome a brilliant victory, a brilliant victory that would send the German Navy to the overlord of Shanghai.

On the other side, Admiral John Jellicoe, commander of the British Navy Grand Fleet, is also waiting for this final decisive battle. Although he knew that relying on the remaining warships of the Royal Navy, it was impossible to defeat the German Navy. However, he hopes to fight the German Navy to the death, and both sides will suffer!

At 12 noon, the main force of the German Navy's High Seas Fleet appeared on the battlefield.
