North Atlantic In the central sea, a huge fleet is sailing north. Dozens of huge warships were guarded in the center of the fleet. These battleships include aircraft carriers and Battleship. There are also a large number of cruisers and destroyers outside these aircraft carriers and Battleship.
Above the fleet, there are dozens of fighter jets cruising in this airspace. The air search Radar of the battleships in the fleet has also been running. Once a suspicious target is found, it will immediately direct the air defense fighters to launch an attack.
From time to time, seaplanes take off or land from the fleet. These seaplanes were sent by the fleet to survey the surrounding area and search for traces of German Home Fleet.
American and British fleets is undoubtedly very powerful, but if you want to defeat German fleet, you must first find German fleet. Otherwise, no matter how powerful we are, what will happen? Without finding German fleet, they couldn't launch an attack.
On the aircraft carrier 'Essex', Admiral Ernest King frowned tightly. Standing next to him was General Haspen Kimmel. However, the expressions on both of their faces were very solemn.
"The Germany people's Carrier-based Aircraft Unit's strength is indeed extraordinary. Army Air Corps's losses are too great. If this continues, even if Army Air Corps has more planes, I'm afraid they won't be able to last long." Admiral Ernest Jin said.
"Yes, General. In just two days, Army Air Corps lost three hundred and fifty B-17 heavy Bomber and six hundred and fifty P-51 fighter jets. But the losses caused to Germany people were very small. If this continues, Army Air Corps I'm afraid's attacks will stop soon. By then, Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet of the Germany people will no longer be in the waters near Bermuda Islands, which will be a huge threat to us," said Admiral Haspen Kimmel.
General Ernest King nodded. Although American and British fleets is very powerful, it can only gain an advantage in the battle against German Navy and Home Fleet. If you add German Navy's Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet, then they won't be able to take advantage at all.
Admiral Ernest King knew that he was able to serve as Commander of the fleet and command this naval battle this time, not because of how strong his ability was, but because Admiral Nimitz was defeated miserably among Azores, so he had a chance. If he fails this time, he won't have another chance. Even his status in the navy is even worse than Admiral Nimitz. Therefore, Admiral Ernest King hoped that he could command the fleet to win this battle.
"We must find German Home Fleet as soon as possible and then attack them! Otherwise, we will have no chance." Admiral Ernest King said.
"Yes, General. However, in the past two days, we have dispatched a large number of seaplanes to search. But we still have not found the target." Admiral Haspen Kimmel said.
"The Germany people must know our situation, so their fleet either retreated eastward or went south, trying to merge with the two fleets. If the Germany people retreated to Europe, then That's it, we can't do anything about them. But if the Germany people go south, then we must intercept them. Order the fleet to speed up and find the Germany people as soon as possible!" Admiral Ernest Jin ordered.
"Yes, General." Admiral Haspen Kimmel replied.
German Home Fleet is indeed heading south. However, Marshal Lütjens knows that American and British fleets is powerful, and if they fight hard, Home Fleet will not gain the upper hand. Therefore, before he ordered the fleet to go south, he first let the fleet sail east for a day and then went south. In this case, it would be even more difficult for American and British fleets to find the German homeland fleet among the vast Atlantic Ocean.
"Your Excellency Commander, Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet fought very beautifully on Bermuda Islands. In two days, they have shot down US Army Air Corps There are thousands of aircraft. Among them, there are three hundred and fifty B-17 heavy Bomber. The rest are P-51 fighter planes. "Karl" Lieutenant General Wetzel looked excited.
US Army Air Corps suffered such a heavy loss, which would greatly weaken United States's air defense and bombing capabilities. In the next battle, Germany will have a greater advantage.
"With such a huge loss, US Army Air Corps can't hold on much longer, right?" Marshal Lütjens raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, Your Excellency Commander. Mediterranean Fleet will leave the waters near Bermuda Islands tonight, and Kitakami will cooperate with us in the battle." Karl Lieutenant General Wetzel said.
Marshal Lütjens nodded, and the heart that had been choosing finally returned to his stomach. With the strength of Home Fleet, it would be difficult to contend with American and British fleets alone. However, if Mediterranean Fleet is added, their chances of winning will be much greater.
However, everything will not go smoothly in this world. Just when Marshal Lütjens thought they had a high chance of winning, an accident happened.
On the morning of October 19, a Britain submarine discovered German Home Fleet, which was heading south rapidly. Although, you know that sending Telegram at this time will expose your location and put yourself in danger. However, the submarine Britain resolutely surfaced and issued Telegram. It was this letter, Telegram, that exposed the location of German Home Fleet.
"General, we have discovered the location of Germany." A staff officer reported to General Ernest King with a face of surprise.
"Where are they?" Admiral Ernest King asked immediately.
"A Britain submarine discovered them, about four hundred and fifty kilometers southeast of us." the officer reported.
"Very good, immediately order all aircraft carriers to release Carrier-based aircraft and prepare to attack the Germany people. We must seize this opportunity and kill German Home Fleet!" Admiral Ernest King ordered excitedly. At this moment, he seemed to think that even God was on his side.
"Yes, General."
American and British fleets immediately took action, and nine fleet aircraft carriers, four light aircraft carriers and eight medium aircraft carriers, all began to take off Carrier-based aircraft. They hope to launch an attack before German Home Fleet can react, destroy German Home Fleet in one fell swoop, and secure victory in this naval battle.
