Chapter 358: National Games

Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

"Weakness?" The light in Churchill's eyes flickered. He needed a victory too much. He needed a great victory to continue the undefeated myth of the British Empire. Hearing what Admiral Holland said, he seemed to see the future, as if he had stood on the monument of winning the war.

"After repeated research and discussion, I have confirmed that although the German high seas fleet is strong, it has a fatal weakness." Lieutenant General Holland said, looking at Churchill's eyes: "This is also after our fiasco two days ago. Confirmed a fatal weakness. "

"Let's talk!" Churchill could not wait any longer. He wanted to know what the weakness in Holland's mouth was. If it can be successfully used, is it really possible to defeat the German high seas fleet in one breath.

"German aircraft carriers can't fight at night!" Holland did not sell the game, but very simply expressed his thoughts: "I asked the technicians on the Royal Ark aircraft carrier, they all said that they took off the navy in the stormy night. Fighters are suicidal. This is still the case when our army uses a large number of two-seater fighters and bombers! In order to pursue performance, the fighters are single-handed, so they are less likely to fight at night! "

"Continue!" Churchill seemed to think of something, but he was not a professional naval fleet commander after all, so he still planned to listen to the opinions of Admiral Holland.

"And we can note that during the execution of the planned missions of the generators in the last two days, our army's losses were basically sunk by three things at night. The first was mines, the second was submarines, and the third was large bombers. "Lieutenant General Holland extended three fingers and introduced," This shows a problem, that is, their navy and air force fighters are the same as ours! There is no way to dispatch at night! Or even if it is barely There is no ability to attack!

"In addition to the aircraft carriers with strong attack capability during the day, the German naval fleet is full of small boats that can not be installed on the platform. As long as our fleet rushes into the opposing aircraft carrier fleet, it will only take half an hour and I will be sure to sink all German ships! "Lieutenant General Holland said confidently at the end.

It is true that if any battleship of the British Navy was allowed to rush into the formation of the German navy, those crisp skinned carriers and convoys with apparently insufficient artillery caliber were just a piece of cake under the muzzle of the battleship.

In the British Navy ’s weapons catalog, there is exactly one kind of battleship that is famous for assaulting and bullying boats. That is the British Royal Navy ’s battle cruiser. At this moment, the battlecruisers in the British mainland have the Hood and the Prestige. If you add cruisers and destroyers of similar speed, you are absolutely sure to sink all German naval fleets within two hours.

"This method is not unthinkable, but the entire plan has a congenital flaw." A navy general seemed to sniff at the plan: "The aircraft carrier aircraft's survey distance is quite far. If there is no accident, it will definitely be at least at least. We found our fleet at a distance of 150 nautical miles, even if it was not enough to attack, but this distance was still enough to run. The Navy sent the warship to run away from each other, this kind of thing is not once or twice. "

"It ’s different this time. Their focus is on the English Channel, and our fleet will be closer to the enemy!" Lieutenant General Holland said firmly: "And we can lie in batches of our army offshore, slowly Close to the German Fleet! No more reconnaissance planes could risk getting shot down and approach our shoreline! "

"Additionally! Hurricane fighters have recently accumulated a certain number of them. Is it still safe to dispatch 30 German reconnaissance planes offshore?" Lieutenant General Holland asked the generals of the Air Force and asked.

"If only the reconnaissance aircraft of the German navy is expelled, it can still be accomplished by concentrating the troops." An Air Force general glanced at Churchill and saw Churchill nodded before answering: "But once this mission is carried out, then The only 35 hurricane fighters in our army can only be concentrated near the coastline. By that time, the air defenses over the entire United Kingdom will be equivalent to no defense. "

During the day, the land-based aviation cover was used to approach the target quietly, and at night suddenly accelerated to the German fleet, destroying the German navy fleet in the state of the Germans' worst night artillery battle. This plan-feasible!

Churchill came to this conclusion immediately after a short thought. As long as the big trouble at sea can be solved in one breath, then the remaining Dunkirk is easy to handle. Even the 200,000 army is lost in Dunkirk, and the Germans have the navy as a barrier. Can't cross the strait.

However, this time the Navy must bet on the most elite warships to fight the battle. The victory or defeat is unpredictable. Once the victory is achieved, Germany can be returned to its original shape. This is the legendary Battle of the British Empire!

He thought of this, and nodded his head for the emergency meeting today: "So! Arrange the main force of the fleet to go south! Stand by near the English Channel! Then consist of Hood, Prestige, three cruisers and 6 destroyers 'S fleet is looking for opportunities to fight! "

He paused and continued to order: "To confuse Germany, continue to evacuate Dunkirk troops these days! As a bait for the German high seas fleet! In addition, the Air Force deployed elite troops and concentrated hurricane fighters to ensure the day of the operation The sky is absolutely safe! "

"Yes!" Everyone stood upright and responded to Churchill.

"How sure?" After the meeting, Churchill left Lieutenant Holan who provided the action plan, and personally asked about some details of the action.

"If there is no accident, grasp at least 70%! As long as the German navy is hooked this time, it will not be able to run!" Holland said confidently: "The German navy's night-time combat capability, I evaluated it, and it was three. The firepower of a cruiser is similar! Even if they count the three armored ships they call, they are not rivals of the Prestige and Hood! "

"What's more." Holland thought and added: "Once our fleet is entangled with the German aircraft carrier, the battleships that follow up just catch up ..."

"Battle of the National Games! Here we are!" Churchill said bleakly. He looked very proud, but it is a pity to bet the entire National Games on a battle. This is in itself the sorrow of a strong man.

At the same time when Churchill decided to desperately, a large number of German bombers were preparing for the attack mission on the runway of the Luftwaffe Dutch Airport, a secret and important military base of the Luftwaffe.

"One two three! Press! One two three! Press!" Ground crews are installing high-explosive ammunition for the butcher bomber with a special loader. One 250-kilogram blockbuster was hung in the butcher's bomber's bomb bay. The airport was brightly lit, and the searchlight was providing illumination for the reloading operation at night.

On both sides of the runway of the airport, there was a black butchery butcher bomber. After a few days of accumulation, these German strategic bombers that had bombed London had accumulated an alarming number, compared to the time when they went to London. This time, the German strategic bomber fleet already has a huge scale of 80.

"After taking off from the Netherlands, flying northwest, I understand." Not far away, several pilots were finally confirming the flight route with the pilot and ground commanders. They pointed to the route map and repeatedly confirmed, because Taking off at night to carry out bombing missions is not an easy task.

"I don't know if the bombing mission will be successful this time." On the airport command tower, the commander in charge of the bombing mission is still the chief commander of the German bomber force and the deputy chief of staff of the Air Force Dick. He frowned as he stared at the combat target, and asked the adjutant beside him.

"General! The head of state has said that ancient China has a tactic of warfare called" Empty is true, truth is false! "I feel that I have said too much, it is simply a military motto."

The lieutenant pointed at the map with pride and comforted Dick: "We bombed Dunkirk for two days, so tonight they will also feel that our strategic bomber fleet will fly to Dunkirk! But, we just missed it today Go bombing the British mainland! "

"Hopefully this time, if we don't bomb London, we won't encounter fighter jets called hurricanes. In this way, there will be no great losses." Dick also lowered his heart slightly and stared at the map.

"Relax! The news from the intelligence service is that the British fighter forces are heading south, and they are trying to find ways to ensure airpower near Dunkirk. General Catherine analyzed that the British may have any intentions about our aircraft carrier fleet." Deputy Officer I thought about it for a while.

"What the Navy does is not related to our strategic bomber force! We only need to complete the attack order issued by the head of state! This time, we will let the British thoroughly taste the power of our Germans!" Dick gritted his teeth and said, "On the Navy side, let General Catherine and General Lütjens!"

"Strategic bomber formations request to take off! General!" An officer at the command tower came to Dick's side and said with respect.

"Approve takeoff! All bombers, target Manchester! The second British bombing plan, start!" Dick put the pen on his hand on a huge map of the United Kingdom, the industrial city called Manchester-where there is the United Kingdom A production line for a hurricane fighter just completed.
