"General, we shot down the Germany people's seaplane. However, before they were shot down, they sent Telegram. I'm afraid our position has been exposed again." A staff officer reported.
General Ernest King's face became very ugly.
"Asshole. Will the Germany people still send Carrier-based aircraft to attack us? After one night, the distance between us and them should be even further!" General Ernest Jin couldn't help but curse.
"General, what should we do now?"
"Order the fleet to turn to the northwest. In addition, prepare for air defense!" Admiral Ernest King ordered.
"Yes, General."
The order was quickly issued, and American and British fleets became nervous again. Many sailors have Panic that cannot be concealed on their faces. Yesterday's German carrier-based aircraft group attack had frightened many American and British fleets sailors. If German Navy attacks like this again, how can they withstand it?
"What's going on? After a night of sailing and turning, are you still not able to get rid of German Navy? But our Hunter Killer Group obviously has no news! If German Navy follows us, our Hunter Killer Group will definitely find them." John? Admiral Tovey couldn't help but frowned tightly.
"Perhaps what we have to face this time is not German Home Fleet." Andrew? Admiral Cunningham said.
John? Admiral Tovey's face suddenly became even more ugly. He understood what General Andrew? Cunningham meant. That's what we will face this time, probably German Navy's other fleets. After all, German Navy is on Atlantic Ocean, not just Home Fleet. German Navy's Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet also have very powerful power.
Sure enough, in less than twenty minutes, the shrill air raid siren sounded. The air search for Radar has revealed a group of Carrier-based aircraft groups approaching them.
"General, the enemy's Carrier-based aircraft group came from the south. It is not very large. There are about one hundred and fifty Carrier-based aircraft." A staff officer reported.
"South? Is this German Home Fleet or another fleet?" Admiral Ernest King asked through gritted teeth.
The officers couldn't give a definite answer.
"No matter which fleet it is from the Germany people. This time we must resist their attack! Order all ships to prepare for air defense operations." Admiral Ernest King ordered.
Indeed, for American and British fleets, the most important thing now is to resist German carrier-based aircraft group's attack. Only in this way can you ensure your own safety. Otherwise, no matter how much you say, it will be just empty words.
"Yes, General."
Carrier-based Aircraft Unit suffered heavy losses, and there are not many Carrier-based aircraft left. Therefore, they did not take off carrier-based fighter jets to fight German carrier-based aircraft group. After all, those pilots who survived are also very valuable. In fact, the value of these pilots is more precious than those Carrier-based aircraft lost.
In order to leave some seeds for American and British fleets's Carrier-based Aircraft Unit, the pilots of Carrier-based aircraft have even been evacuated to other small and medium-sized battleships in advance. The purpose is to ensure that these Carrier-based aircraft pilots have a chance to survive after suffering heavy losses. Of course, this actually doesn't make much sense anymore. After all, after US and British Navy's disastrous defeat this time, they would never have hope again.
"Dong dong dong!"
The anti-aircraft firepower of American and British fleets soon began to roar, and 127mm Anti-aircraft Gun, as the long-range anti-aircraft firepower, opened fire first.
But German Navy Mediterranean Fleet's Carrier-based aircraft group has dispersed and pounced on American Navy's remaining four 'independence-class' light aircraft carriers. Although the displacement of these light aircraft carriers is less than 20,000 tons, it is undoubtedly much smaller than the Capital Ships, which often weighs tens of thousands of tons. However, the Carrier-based aircraft pilots of German Navy still regard these light aircraft carriers as their primary attack targets.
"Dong dong dong!"
American Navy's aircraft carrier and escort warships opened fire like crazy, trying to use intensive anti-aircraft firepower to block German carrier-based aircraft group's attack and ensure the safety of their aircraft carriers.
But they soon discovered that this was in vain. Intense anti-aircraft firepower can certainly shoot down some German Navy and Carrier-based aircraft. But it actually had no effect on changing the outcome of the entire naval battle.
"Boom! Boom!"
Explosions sounded, and US warships began to be hit by German military's Carrier-based aircraft.
The first ones to be dealt with were still the escort warships, and finally it was the aircraft carrier at the core of the fleet.
American Navy The remaining four light aircraft carriers are the 'Langley', the 'Cabot', the 'Bataan Peninsula' and the 'San Jacinto'.
Although American fleet had strengthened the protection of these four light aircraft carriers, they still failed to hold on in the face of German carrier-based aircraft group's overwhelming blows, and soon they were all hit by bullets and caught fire.
In the end, all four light aircraft carriers were sunk in less than half an hour.
So far, American and British fleets has lost all their aircraft carriers in this naval battle. Although, they still have a lot of Capital Ships left. However, the outcome of this naval battle could no longer be changed.
German Navy Mediterranean Fleet's Carrier-based aircraft group, after sinking four light aircraft carriers, also began to attack the Capital Ships formation of American and British fleets.
Of the three ships, 'Montana-class' and 'Battleship' were the largest, they became the target of German carrier-based aircraft group's attack. Although 'Montana-class' Battleship has thick armor and intensive anti-aircraft firepower. However, under German carrier-based aircraft group and Encirclement Offensive, the three 'Montana-class' and Battleship are still in danger.
For 'Montana-class' Battleship, a single aviation Armor-piercing Shell and aviation Torpedo will not cause any harm to it. But once there are too many bullets, even these Battleships with a displacement of more than 70,000 tons will not be able to hold on.
The first wave of German Navy Mediterranean Fleet's Carrier-based aircraft group, after dropping all the bombs, was not able to sink the three American Navy's 'Montana-class' Battleship. And its own losses are not small.
However, when the second wave of fleets entered the battle, the fate of American Navy's three 'Montana-class' and Battleship was still doomed.
