In the Pacific Ocean, Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardy was reading a telegram on the battleship Crown Prince, the temporary flagship of the battleship formation of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet. In order to prevent the aircraft carrier formation of the Pacific Fleet from being exposed, the telegram was forwarded from Ponapei Island. Of course, it was Admiral Konrad Abbrecht who sent people to Pohnpei Island by seaplane, and then issued these orders.
The sky is about to dawn, and the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft is taking off, preparing to attack the island nation's fleet. It is conceivable that the aircraft carrier fleet of the navy of the island country will definitely take off carrier-based aircraft. If the capital ship formation continues to fight, it will inevitably be besieged by the carrier-based aircraft of the navy of the island country.
Although, these capital ships of the German Navy showed extremely powerful combat effectiveness in battle. However, no one knows whether they can withstand the siege of the enemy's carrier-based aircraft. Although the performance of the carrier-based aircraft of the island navy is generally not as good as that of the German navy. But it is undoubtedly very difficult for a huge capital ship to withstand the siege of the enemy's carrier-based aircraft.
"It's a pity, I thought it would be possible to sink more battleships of the island nation." Theodor Burchardizhong said.
"General, our results are already very good. There are not many battleships left by the islanders. This battle will continue for a long time, and we still have a chance to kill them!" Major General Felix said.
Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardi nodded: "That's right, our own safety is the most important thing, there is no need to put us in it. Next time, look for an opportunity to take the capital ships of those islanders It's all settled."
"Command the fleet, turn around and return, and form an air defense formation!" Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardi issued an order.
"Yes, General."
The warships of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet began to turn around and head for Pohnpei Island. It is expected that they will join the planes taking off from the German Navy's aircraft carrier and Pohnpei Island on the way. In that case, they will not worry about being attacked by the carrier-based aircraft of the navy of the island country. What's more, the air defense capabilities of these warships of the German Navy are also very strong. All warships are equipped with anti-aircraft guns.
At the same time, the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet also received orders. They only dealt with the two "Fuso-class" battleships of the island navy. Lieutenant General Otto Schneewent was undoubtedly very dissatisfied with such a result. However, he has no choice. With the heavy losses of the aircraft carrier formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet, the battleship formation has become the main combat force of the Indian Ocean Fleet. If they have three long and two short, then the Indian Ocean Fleet will really suffer a devastating blow.
Therefore, Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt dared not take any risks and could only order the fleet to return.
At the same time, on the sea about 500 kilometers away from Ponapei Island, the two aircraft carrier teams of the navy of the island country, separated by more than 100 kilometers in the sea area, began to release carrier-based aircraft one after another.
Admiral Yamamoto Fifty-Six stood on the island of the "Ibuki" aircraft carrier, watching the Zero fighter jets of the island navy take the lead. He has a smile on his face. Although their battleship team lost a lot, the second battleship team led by Lieutenant Admiral Takasu Shiro achieved very good results. This made General Yamamoto very satisfied.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Takasu-kun and the others sank two German aircraft carriers. Although the other two aircraft carriers were not able to be sunk, they were both shot and must have been severely damaged. In a short period of time, there is absolutely no other way Participated in the war. Now, we only need to pay attention to the four aircraft carriers of the German Pacific Fleet in the Pacific Ocean.” Rear Admiral Imo Takahashi, chief of staff of the United Fleet, said with a smile on his face.
"Heavy damage does not mean sinking! With the industrial strength of the Germans, the two aircraft carriers can be repaired in Lion City without even returning to the mainland. This is also a huge threat to the Imperial Navy. If we can It would be great to sink them in one fell swoop." General Yamamoto Fifty-Six said.
"Your Excellency, Commander, if we can hit them hard, we will definitely be able to sink them. This war has just begun, and we have plenty of opportunities to sink all the German aircraft carriers!" Major General Takahashi Izo said.
General Yamamoto Fifty-Six did not say much, what he hoped was that the navy of the island country would achieve a brilliant victory in the early stages of the war. Only in this way can they gain an advantage in the Far East and Pacific battlefields. Otherwise, once Germany recovers, it will be even more impossible for them to win again. After all, Germany's overall national strength is much stronger than that of the island countries, and the longer the delay, the more unfavorable it will be for the island countries.
"Your Excellency, our carrier-based planes have already begun to take off. However, the Germans must have taken off their planes. Although we have sunk two of their aircraft carriers and severely damaged two of them. But if you add Pohnpei Island In terms of deployed aircraft, the Germans still have much more aircraft than us. Therefore, this sea area is not safe." Lieutenant General Chuichi Nagumo reminded.
General Yamamoto Fifty-Six nodded: "After taking off the carrier-based aircraft, let the fleet return! Anyway, we have achieved good results in this battle. Those carrier-based aircraft and pilots lost before , also needs to be replenished. The fleet can return to Naha to replenish supplies and personnel. Then find an opportunity to fight the Germans!"
"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Lieutenant General Nagumo Chuichi replied.
"I don't know what happened to Takasu-kun? They have severely injured the Germans, and the Germans will definitely not let them go!" Major General Takahashi Iwang said.
General Yamamoto Fifty-Six could not help but feel a little worried. Of course, he hoped that the four "Amagi-class" battlecruisers led by Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro could escape successfully.
At this moment, Lieutenant Admiral Takasu Shiro's 2nd Battleship Squadron of the Japanese Navy is indeed speeding up its withdrawal from the battlefield. Although it failed to sink the aircraft carriers "Wilhelm II" and "William III" of the German Navy. But in order to ensure their own safety, they had to retreat. Otherwise, once it is overtaken by the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft, it will really be a dead end.
The four "Amagi-class" battlecruisers of the 2nd Battleship Squadron of the Japanese Navy, under the protection of light cruisers and destroyers, lined up in an air defense formation and withdrew from the battlefield at high speed. There was no smile on Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro's face, replaced by seriousness. If they cannot evacuate safely, then their next fate can be imagined.
