"Dong dong dong!"

On the sea, the fierce battle continued. After the US military aircraft carrier 'Randolph' was sunk, German carrier-based aircraft group set its sights on other aircraft carriers. For German carrier-based aircraft group, sinking an aircraft carrier American Navy is just the beginning. If possible, they certainly hope to sink all 24 aircraft carriers of American Navy. In this case, Germany can completely gain sea control on Atlantic Ocean, and can even prepare for a future attack on United States's homeland.

Although, the first batch of Carrier-based aircraft groups that German Atlantic Fleet's Aircraft Carrier Formation took off suffered heavy losses, and most of the remaining Carrier-based aircrafts also ran out of bombs and Torpedos and had to return. However, the first batch of Carrier-based aircraft that took off from Mediterranean Fleet's Aircraft Carrier Formation arrived again. The first batch of Home Fleet, Carrier-based aircraft, are also about to arrive on the battlefield. In addition, the second batch of Carrier-based aircraft of Atlantic Fleet, Mediterranean Fleet and Carrier-based aircraft of Home Fleet are also on the way and will arrive on the battlefield soon.

With all the U. S. air defense fighters already lost, German carrier-based aircraft group can directly attack the U. S. fleet without interference. All they have to worry about is the U. S. fleet's anti-aircraft firepower. The U. S. fleet's anti-aircraft firepower may seem powerful, but for German military's Carrier-based aircraft pilots, there are undoubtedly big loopholes. The pilots of German military can seize these loopholes, launch attacks on US warships, and sink them. This can be proven by killing the aircraft carrier 'Randolph' and the entire aircraft carrier battle group.

"Boom! Boom!"

Violent explosions sounded from the US warship. The warship was on fire and burning, or even sinking. Under the overwhelming blow from German carrier-based aircraft group, the US military's Aircraft Carrier Formation is suffering heavy losses. A large number of warships are encountering Encirclement Offensive and then being sunk.

The situation on the battlefield is already very unfavorable for US fleet.

"General, the situation is very unfavorable to us now. Our air search Radar found that a large number of German military Carrier-based aircraft are approaching. It is expected that at least thousands of German military's Carrier-based aircraft will attack our fleet." Lieutenant General Halsey reported to Admiral Nimitz with a serious face. Obviously, the scale of Carrier-based aircraft dispatched by German military has made it somewhat difficult for American fleet to resist.

Admiral Nimitz's face also became very ugly. He knew that in this naval battle, the Germany people also tried their best. This is undoubtedly a very big threat to American fleet. If American fleet cannot resist, then a disastrous defeat awaits them. In fact, Admiral Nimitz can already conclude that it will be very difficult for American fleet to win this naval battle. Their Capital Ships team suffered heavy losses under the attack of German military's Capital Ships team. Now Encirclement Offensive is also suffering from German military's shore-based aircraft. And their Aircraft Carrier Formation is also facing the huge Carrier-based Aircraft Unit and Encirclement Offensive of German military. It is already very difficult to say how many aircraft carriers will be left after the battle is over. It is estimated that the situation will not be too optimistic.

"Tell all the battleships and all the sailors. A battle related to the life and death of the Republic of America navy is coming. We must do our best to resist the attack of the Germany people. Otherwise, we will lose completely." Admiral Nimitz said. Now all he can hope for is that the sailors of the US military can perform at a super level. In this case, perhaps, the loss will not be so great.

"Yes, general." Lieutenant General Halsey nodded. He also knew that the current situation was very unfavorable to American Navy. The possibility of them winning this naval battle is almost very low.

"Where is our Carrier-based aircraft group? How is the situation?" Admiral Nimitz asked.

As American fleet's heavy losses are unavoidable, Admiral Nimitz undoubtedly hopes that their Carrier-based aircraft group can also cause heavy damage to German Navy's Aircraft Carrier Formation. In that case, perhaps the naval battle can be ended with both sides suffering losses. The next step is to compete with the shipbuilding strength of the two countries. In American Navy's shipyard, there are still a large number of aircraft carriers and Capital Ships waiting for service. After these aircraft carriers are put into service, American Navy's strength will be restored and even become more powerful. By then, they will still have enough strength to deal with German Navy.

"General, the situation of our Carrier-based aircraft group is not optimistic. Whether it is attacking German Home Fleet or Atlantic Fleet's fleet, they have all been strongly blocked by German military's air defense fighters and suffered heavy losses. Although, it has now been We have launched an attack on the German aircraft carrier formation. However, the German fleet anti-aircraft firepower is so powerful that it is much more powerful than our fleet's anti-aircraft firepower, so that our Carrier-based aircraft group suffered very heavy losses," said Lieutenant General Halsey.

Admiral Nimitz was immediately speechless. He knew that it would be very difficult for his wish to become a reality. The result of this naval battle is likely to be that American Navy suffered heavy losses, while German Navy suffered minor losses. This will allow German Navy to win this naval battle. Moreover, German Navy gained Atlantic Ocean's sea control in one fell swoop.

After American Navy suffered heavy losses and lost its sea control, it is estimated that it had to huddle in the United States homeland and survive under the protection of Army Air Corps's fighter planes. It will be very difficult to go to sea to challenge German Navy's sea control.

"God! Could it be that Republic of America's navy's ambition will really die because of this?" Admiral Nimitz couldn't help but ask himself. He believes that in order to challenge German Navy's offshore Hegemonic Status, American Navy has undoubtedly tried their best over the years. However, the final result was still not what they wanted.

Even if American Navy loses, it will be a heavy blow to the entire United States. United States sends troops to Europe, and attacking German homeland will become a luxury. United States It is also very difficult to win this war.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a violent explosion sounded. I saw American Navy's aircraft carrier 'Ticonderoga' burning in the explosion. The entire battleship seemed to be on fire.

The sailors on the aircraft carrier are jumping into the sea to escape, and no one is thinking of ways to save the warship anymore.

This was when the oil tanks of the USS Ticonderoga were detonated. Thousands of tons of aviation fuel stored inside exploded, directly dealing a fatal blow to the aircraft carrier.
