On the battlecruiser 'Blücher', Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt and Major General Abraham stood on the bridge, watching the light cruiser 'Kitakami' burning and sinking. Through the binoculars, one can clearly see that in the middle of the fire, one after another, the sailors of the island nation jumped into the sea like dumplings. In their eyes, there was no pity for this, but complete indifference.
"General, it's over! We have wiped out the islanders' lightning strike formation. However, the light cruiser sunk by us is really insane. A round of lightning strikes can actually release dozens of torpedoes. They killed two light cruisers and two destroyers at once. If they were approached by the opponent, the consequences would be unimaginable!" Major General Abraham said.
Lieutenant Admiral Otto Schneewendt nodded. The island navy's light cruiser specialized in lightning strikes, coupled with spear torpedoes, has indeed become a very terrifying killer. Especially in the case of night battles, once it gets close, the consequences will be very serious. Think about it, dozens of torpedoes rushing towards your own capital ship formation quickly, it is undoubtedly very terrifying, enough to make your scalp numb.
"Send a telegram to the aircraft carrier! The next battle will be their turn." Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt said.
"Yes, General." Major General Abraham nodded.
"General, can we send some destroyers or light cruisers to chase after the main fleet of the islanders? In this way, we can also point out the target location for the aircraft carrier formation. It is not necessary to let the carrier-based aircraft take off after dawn to search The location of the island nation's fleet. If you're lucky, you might be able to find out the location of the island nation's navy's aircraft carrier in one fell swoop." The boy Abraham suggested.
"Well, let's do this! Send two light cruisers and two destroyers, divide into two formations, and follow the island fleet closely. After dawn, inform us of the location of the island fleet." Lieutenant General Otto Schnewendt said .
"Yes, General."
Two German light cruisers and two destroyers formed two formations, and quickly chased in the direction of the island fleet, and soon disappeared in the darkness. As long as you find the location of the island nation's fleet and launch an attack after dawn, the island nation's fleet will undoubtedly pay a heavier price, which will further expand the German Navy's achievements in this naval battle.
On board the "Aries" aircraft carrier of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet, Lieutenant General William Canaris, the commander of the aircraft carrier formation, and Major General Berger, the chief of staff, also stayed up all night without rest.
For the aircraft carrier formation of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet, the South China Sea is undoubtedly a dangerous sea area, which may be attacked by the enemy at any time. Especially after the first aircraft carrier team of the combined fleet of the island nation's navy entered Subic Bay, the German navy had to be more vigilant.
Although, the German navy still has the advantage now. However, when I think of the shipyards in the mainland of the island country, they are building aircraft carriers and capital ships. Once those aircraft carriers enter service, this will put great pressure on the German Navy. Especially after two of the four aircraft carriers in the Indian Ocean Fleet were sunk, their pressure increased.
If the other two aircraft carriers of the Indian Ocean Fleet can be repaired as soon as possible and re-entered into service, relatively speaking, it will be able to relieve them a lot of pressure. However, according to the most conservative estimate, it will take several months. They were seriously injured in the previous sneak attack by several "Amagi-class" battlecruisers of the Japanese Navy.
"General, a telegram from the capital ship formation!" A communications officer handed the telegram to Vice Admiral William Canaris.
Lieutenant General William Canaris couldn't help laughing after reading the telegram.
"The capital ship formation did a good job. They killed two capital ships, two light cruisers and ten destroyers from the islanders. However, they themselves were struck by lightning from the islanders and lost four light cruisers and five destroyers. The islanders The capital ship formation of the fleet is fleeing northward, and the capital ship formation has given up pursuing. In other words, the rest of the battle will be left to us!" Lieutenant General William Canaris said.
"General, if we dispatch carrier-based aircraft, we shouldn't have much problem killing the islanders' capital fleet. However, we have to be careful about the islanders' aircraft carriers. The four aircraft carriers of the islanders' first aircraft carrier team , and have already left Subic Bay. You don’t need to think about it, they must be in the South China Sea at this moment, maybe they are searching for our location now.” Major General Bogle Shudu.
Lieutenant General William Canaris nodded. The four aircraft carriers of the Island Navy's 1st Aircraft Carrier Squad are indeed noteworthy. The four island nation aircraft carriers, the aircraft carrier 'Ibuki' and the aircraft carrier 'Hodaka', carry up to 91 carrier-based aircraft. The "Kurama" aircraft carrier and the "Togakushi" aircraft carrier also carry as many as 90 carrier-based aircraft. The four aircraft carriers add up to a total of 362 carrier-based aircraft. This is undoubtedly a considerable force.
In contrast to the German fleet's "White Sheep" aircraft carrier and the "Taurus" aviation, each can only carry 103 carrier-based aircraft. Adding up the two ships, there are only 206 in total. Compared with the four aircraft carriers of the Japanese navy, there are 156 fewer aircraft carriers. This is undoubtedly a very terrifying gap. If the fleet is attacked by as many as 156 carrier-based aircraft, then the final result may only be sunk.
"The battleship formation has sent cruisers and destroyers to track the islanders. It would be great if we can find their aircraft carrier formation. We can attack their aircraft carrier formation first. If we can't find them, then The only thing is to strengthen the air defense." Lieutenant General William Canaris said.
Major General Berger nodded: "General, we may allow the 5th Aviation Group to support a batch of our fighter planes. Nothing else is needed. We only need to dispatch a group of fighter jets to **** the fleet after we release the carrier aircraft. .The best is their FW-190 fighter jets. In that case, it is enough to deal with the threat of the island navy’s carrier-based aircraft.”
Lieutenant General William Canaris couldn't help but shine, this is undoubtedly a good way. With the reinforcements of the Air Force, their air defense can undoubtedly be guaranteed. In this case, even if the aircraft carrier team of the navy of the island country cannot be found, there is no problem with its own safety.
"Contact the Air Force immediately, we need their reinforcements!" Lieutenant General William Canaris immediately made a decision.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
