When American Navy was trying his best to prepare for a decisive battle with German Navy. German Navy is also preparing for this decisive battle.
Like American Navy, the preset battlefield of German Navy is also the sea area of Azores. Based on German Navy's analysis, if American Navy wants to defeat German Navy, those bases on Azores must be removed by American Navy. Therefore, German Navy would rather wait in this sea area and wait for American Navy to come to his door.
Fight to the death with American Navy on your own preset battlefield. In this case, German Navy is undoubtedly more likely to win the final victory. Even though German Navy is stronger than American Navy. But in order to win this naval battle, they also have to be careful. In a naval battle involving the national destiny of two countries, there is no room for sloppiness. If it fails, it will ruin the future of the country.
After German Home Fleet left Wilhelmshaven, he entered North Sea. Then it passed through the Shetland Islands, entered Atlantic Ocean, and then turned south to the Azores sea area.
As for German Navy Mediterranean Fleet, after passing through Strait of Gibraltar and entering Atlantic Ocean, it goes all the way west to Azores.
As for German Atlantic Fleet, their home port is originally Azores. After sailing away from the Port of Heroes, the fleet actually did not leave the sea area, but cruised in the nearby sea area, waiting for the other two fleets to come and join together. At the same time, they are also on standby, waiting for American fleet to come.
Backed by numerous airports on Azores, it can be supported by a large number of shore-based aircraft. Even though German Atlantic Fleet's strength is far from American fleet's opponent, it can still compete with American fleet. This is why after American Navy's strength increased significantly, German Navy was still able to firmly control Atlantic Ocean with Atlantic Fleet.
German Navy's Home Fleet has the longest distance and the shortest time to get there. Mediterranean Fleet, you will arrive faster.
On the vast Atlantic Ocean, American fleet and German fleet are all heading towards Azores. The navies of the two countries will gather thousands of warships in this sea area to start an extremely fierce fight. The winning country will not only gain Atlantic Ocean control of the sea, but will also have a huge advantage in the subsequent war. It will be very difficult for a failed country to make a comeback and regain its disadvantage.
On German Home Fleet's flagship aircraft carrier 'Poseidon', Fleet Commander Marshal Lütjens, Chief of Staff Karl Lieutenant General Wetzel, are discussing this naval battle.
"Your Excellency, Americans is so aggressive this time! According to the intelligence sent from the country, all their Capital Ships and aircraft carriers are no longer in the port. Obviously, this time Americans wants to gather all its strength to fight us decisively!" Karl Lieutenant General Wetzel sighed with emotion.
Even German Navy is very powerful. But American Navy can actually have such courage, which is something that many people would never expect. This kind of courage to put the fate of the country in a war is undoubtedly something that many people cannot do. I have to admit that the decision-making team of US government is still very admirable on this point.
Marshal Lütjens nodded. "Americans dares to fight us, which is indeed very surprising. But, do they think they can scare us like this? It's simply fantastic!"
Karl? Lieutenant General Wetzel couldn't help but laugh.
"Although Imperial Navy is already the world's hegemon, we do not lack the spirit of progress. All along, Imperial Navy has been working hard to completely defeat the enemies that were not defeated in the last World War! In order to win this naval battle, we have been preparing for more than 20 years. Americans dares to do everything. Even if the navy fails, we still have a strong army and air force, which can still ensure Empire's victory on the Eurasian continent. As long as Hegemonic Status can continue to occupy Europe, most of Asia and the entire Africa, Hegemonic Status of the Empire will not be so easily occupied. Empire still has a chance to defeat those enemies. If we lose again this time, we will never have a chance. "Marshal Lütjens continued.
Karl? Lieutenant General Wetzel nodded repeatedly. Compared to United States, Germany's position in this war indeed occupies a great advantage. It's not that easy for United States to defeat Germany and replace Hegemonic Status in Germany's world!
"What's more, this time the battlefield is still our home field. Together with the three Grand Fleet, our strength is already stronger than American Navy. And on Azores, we still have the strength of ten aviation wings. As long as we don't make any mistakes, There is absolutely no problem in defeating Americans. Americans's ambition will sink to the bottom of Atlantic Ocean like their battleship!" Marshal Lütjens said confidently.
Karl? Vice Admiral Wetzel is also full of confidence in the naval battle that will break out next. He also believed that German Navy would be able to win this naval battle.
According to the predetermined combat plan, German Navy's three Grand Fleet will gather in the sea area around Azores, waiting for American fleet to come. Then, rely on the shore-based aircraft on Azores to launch a counterattack and strive to severely damage American fleet. If possible, American fleet's main force could even be wiped out in one fell swoop. In that case, German fleet will be able to take a greater advantage. In the next battle, American Navy will be eliminated step by step, so it will not be a problem.
According to the plan, German Home Fleet will wait for the opportunity in the northern waters of Azores. Atlantic Fleet will head out to the western sea area of Azores. Mediterranean Fleet will be distributed in the southern waters of Azores.
Although, the three Grand Fleet are still separate. However, these distances are nothing to the shore-based aircraft on the Azores and the Carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier. Once the enemy is discovered, all three Grand Fleet aircraft carriers Carrier-based aircraft can take off to meet the enemy. Of course, the distance between the three Grand Fleet Capital Ships formations will be further shortened, and they will also be closer to Azores, preventing American Navy from dispatching the Capital Ships team to attack the airport on Azores at night.
