On the aircraft carrier 'Ibuki', Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo is watching the departure of the Carrier-based aircraft group. The huge fleet of 176 Carrier-based aircraft will become their most advantageous weapon, sinking German Navy and Aircraft Carrier Formation in one fell swoop, winning this naval battle for them.
"Takasu-kun, I hope you can hold on! In order to win, I must put the aircraft carrier that sinks the Germany people first!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo said secretly in his heart.
From Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo's point of view, there are only two Capital Shipss left in the Capital Ships formation, so even if they are lost, it is not a big deal. After all, whether it is the number Battleship of 'Mutsu' or the number Battleship of 'Ise', they cannot compete with Capital Ships of German Navy. Only aircraft carriers will be the real main force in future naval battles. If German Navy's aircraft carrier can be sunk and Island Nation Navy's advantage on the aircraft carrier is ensured, the possibility of Island Nation Navy's subsequent victory will be very high.
Besides, the four 'Yamato-class' and 'Battleship' will also be put into service soon. By then, Island Nation Navy will have these Battleship, which are the most powerful combatants in the world. Even if the number 'Mutsu' Battleship and 'Ise' number Battleship are missing, it will not have much impact on Island Nation Navy. Not to mention that maybe Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō and their luck won't be so bad, and maybe they can survive this disaster. In this case, Island Nation Navy will be able to gain greater advantages.
Not far from Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron, a long pipe is rising from the sea. This is the periscope of a submarine.
"The aircraft carrier team of Island Nation was found. All four aircraft carriers are here." A smile appeared on Submarine Captain's face. Having found the location of Island Nation's aircraft carrier, this naval battle seems to have been half won.
"Sir, are we going to send Telegram? If we send Telegram, it will definitely be noticed by Island Nation people. By then, we will definitely be Encirclement Offensive ed by Island Nation people." said an officer.
"There is no other choice, send Telegram immediately. Then, escape from here immediately!" Submarine Captain made a choice immediately.
"Yes, sir!"
The submarine's communications crew immediately began transmitting Telegram. The current Germany submarine can send Telegram as long as the periscope extends out of the sea. Compared with the past, which had to float up to send Telegram, it is undoubtedly much more convenient, but it is also much more concealed.
However, sending Telegram not far from the aircraft carrier team of Island Nation Navy will definitely not be able to escape the monitoring of Island Nation Navy. Even before Telegram finished sending it, it was already discovered by Island Nation Navy.
"Your Excellency Commander, we have heard a radio signal indicating that there may be German submarines nearby." An officer reported.
"What? German submarines? Damn it, find them and sink them!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
The location is exposed, which means that they are about to be attacked by Carrier-based aircraft of German Navy. This is undoubtedly very dangerous for Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron.
Several Island Nation Navy destroyers immediately rushed towards the location of the Germany submarine.
"Quick, has Telegram finished sending it? Dive immediately!" Submarine Captain saw this scene through the periscope and immediately issued the order.
Fortunately, Telegram was finally sent before the destroyer Island Nation arrived, and the submarine began its emergency dive. Soon the submarine dived to a depth of fifty meters and then escaped.
After the Island Nation destroyer arrived, it did not find the target and had to throw a circle of depth charges indiscriminately. When there is no effect, it can only be ignored.
"Your Excellency Commander, you did not destroy German submarines. I'm afraid our position has been exposed." Major General Ryunosuke Kusaka reported.
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo's face suddenly became even more ugly.
"Order all our carrier-based critical attack aircraft and carrier-based Attacker to take off! Reinforce the first wave of aircraft groups. Stay with the remaining fighters and prepare for air defense!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo ordered.
"General, if we don't send fighter jets to escort us, our critical attack aircraft and Attacker may suffer heavy losses." Major General Ryunosuke Kusaka reminded.
"If the first wave of aircraft can attack the German aircraft carrier formation, the Germany fighters will have no chance to intercept us. The remaining fighters must stay to prevent the Germany fighters' Carrier-based aircraft from attacking us!" Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo insisted.
"Hi, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Ryunosuke Kusaka nodded.
Subsequently, Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron and Carrier-based aircraft began to take off again. However, all that took off this time were Type 99 carrier-based dive bomber and Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft.
From four aircraft carriers, 56 Type 99 carrier-based dive bomber and 80 Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft took off. After these planes took off, they immediately flew in the direction of the first wave of aircraft.
The remaining Zero fighter stayed behind and prepared to provide escort for the aircraft carrier team.
German Navy's aircraft carrier 'Aries'. Lieutenant General William Canaris and Major General Bürgel are waiting for the report of the fleet. The first wave of aircraft taking off from the fleet is already attacking Capital Ship Squadron of Island Nation Navy. The second wave of aircraft is also ready to take off.
"Your Excellency Commander, the first wave of aircraft fleet is estimated to be enough to cause heavy losses to the Capital Ship Squadron people of Island Nation. If the second wave of aircraft fleet launches another attack, it will be enough to sink them all." Major General Bürgel said.
Lieutenant General William Canaris nodded. "Unfortunately, the aircraft carrier of the Island Nation people has not been found yet. It would be great if the aircraft carrier of the Island Nation people could be sunk!"
At this moment, a Communications Officer walked in with a happy face.
"Report, one of our submarines discovered the location of the Island Nation aircraft carrier. The four Island Nation aircraft carriers are all there!" Communications Officer reported.
"What? Found the Island Nation aircraft carrier?" Lieutenant General William Canaris looked happy.
"Yes, General!"
"Very good, order the second wave of aircraft to take off immediately, target 1st Carrier Squadron of Island Nation Navy! This time, we must destroy the aircraft carrier of the Island Nation people and send them all to the sea to feed the fish!" Lieutenant General William Canaris ordered.
"Yes, General,"
German Navy's 'Aries' aircraft carrier and 'Taurus' aircraft carrier's Carrier-based aircraft immediately began to take off. In order to inflict heavy damage to Island Nation Navy 1st Carrier Squadron in one fell swoop, all remaining Carrier-based aircrafts on the two aircraft carriers took off.
