"I'm Field Marshal Richthofen! Of the more than 40 ships of the US army, there is now only 1 aircraft carrier, 2 ocean-going battleships, and 4 battleships and 4 destroyers. ”

"Their azimuth is 230 degrees, their course is 120 degrees!"

When Chen Yanlong asked Field Marshal Richthofen to immediately lead his aircraft carrier fleet to Britain in the Mediterranean Sea to assist in laying mines and sniping at the British and American aircraft carrier fleets, he turned on the switch of the transmitter on the aircraft carrier he was sitting on with his right hand in a loud voice and full of energy, and issued the latest combat orders to all ships.

"1 aircraft carrier, 2 ocean-going battleships, 4 battleships and 4 destroyers, with an azimuth of 230 degrees, a distance of 200 nautical miles, a course of 120 degrees, a speed of 25 knots, are retreating!"

As Field Marshal Hitthofen's battle order was issued, the captains of the other ships also immediately informed the sailors of their respective ships of his battle orders.

Then soon the loudspeakers of each ship suddenly rang out: "All the pilots will gather at once and prepare for the 45th wave of attacks!" ”

As soon as the loudspeaker command sounded, all the German naval aviation crews immediately ran to the training rooms under the bridges of the aircraft carriers at the fastest speed, and after listening to the battle of their commanders, they ran to the planes on the deck of the aircraft carriers at the fastest speed, ready to attack.

When all the pilots of the aircraft carriers entered their planes and inspected them, the flight officers of the various aircraft carriers issued various orders in the control room in earnest.

"All personnel enter the combat state and check the status of each aircraft!"

"Engines ready, start!"

"Ask the ships to speed up the aircraft carrier, catch up with the enemy ships, and definitely not let them escape!"

As the pilots shouted their orders, the German carrier-based planes started their engines as fast as they could.

Then the deafening sound of the airplane engine turning on instantly resounded in the sky.

At the same time, the exhaust pipes of those planes are also white gas, which is constantly emitted.

"The state of all the planes and pilots has been adjusted, and they are ready to take off and fight!"

When all the aviation crews were in a state of battle, the flight heralds of the ships; He shouted loudly, waving his flag.

"Report! All flying teams are in combat mode and can immediately attack and pursue the enemy! ”

With the report of the herald, the aviation officers of each ship immediately reported to their respective captains.

"Take off!"

When the captains of the aircraft carriers heard this, they looked at the wind gauges on the ships and the status of the flying units on the deck, and immediately gave a brief order.

"Take off!"

Hearing this, the flight officers also quickly issued the orders of the captain of the aircraft carrier to all the air crew members in a thunderous voice.

In an instant, one carrier-based plane after another took off vigorously.

In the noisy sound of aircraft taking off, in just over 10 minutes, 190 planes quickly took off successfully.

These include the new F-8D carrier-based aircraft and the Ar-234 jet bomber.

And these German bombers were also in batches, from a height of 10,000 meters, ready to be directed only by Major General Theobald

"Oops! Major General Theobald! Those German carrier-based aircraft groups are chasing after us again, and those German aircraft carrier fleets have also increased their speed to pursue us! ”

In the face of the close pursuit of the aircraft carrier fleet commanded by Field Marshal Richthofen, an American combat staff officer shouted at Rear Admiral Richthoald, who had not said a word, with a gloomy face on his face.

"These damned Germans! It's really surprising that their aircraft carrier fleet is so powerful, especially those new carrier-based aircraft groups, which can sink 29 of our aircraft carrier army from more than 40 ships, and only 11 are left! ”

"And our carrier-based aircraft fleet is also more than 400 aircraft, and now there are less than 120 left!"

Hearing this, Major General Theobald gritted his teeth with murderous eyes full of murderous energy.

"So what do we do now! Major General Theobald! The German carrier-based aircraft groups and aircraft carrier groups are about to catch up with us! ”

The operational staff officer, who was still panicking, asked again in a panic.

"What else? Fight with these damn Germans! Send me all the remaining carrier-based aircraft groups right away! In addition, all ships are fully combat-ready to fight to the death! ”

"Since those German troops don't plan to let us go, then even if we want to die in battle, we have to pull them one more ship and a ship and plane to bury together!"

Major General Theobald said with a murderous look in his face.

“……”

At the resolute death order of Major General Theobald, the combat staff officer was stunned and terrified, and his whole body trembled.

"What are you still stunned about! Don't give the order to fight to the death yet! ”

Seeing this, Major General Theobald scolded murderously and coldly.

"Yes! Be! ”

The staff officer sitting in the war reflex in fear.

With that, he stumbled out in despair, ready to convey to the captains of the ships the order of Rear Admiral Theobald to fight to the death.

Soon, the captains and pilots of all the remaining American ships also received such restless orders to fight to the death.

At that moment, many people were trembling and frightened.

Because in their minds, they were thinking that even if they were defeated, they could surrender to the Germans! Why did Major General Theobald insist that they fight to the death and send them to their deaths!

But even these people are afraid, confused, and even inwardly insulting Major General Theobald's madness and harmfulness.

But in the end, they still reluctantly piloted the carrier-based aircraft, or the ships began to rush out to meet the attack of the German menacing carrier-based aircraft group and the aircraft carrier group.

"Is this the place where I am buried, and is it true that all the naval personnel under my command will die here with me?"

When all the American carrier-based planes took off to meet the German carrier-based group, Rear Admiral Theobald felt extremely heavy and even sighed at a loss.

At this moment, he really wanted to surrender to the Germans, who were in a superior position in battle, in order to save the lives of his soldiers. But when he thought of the Mediterranean naval battle and the importance of the Battle of Sicily to the Anglo-American Allied advance into the European theater, he extinguished the idea of surrender.

"I'll die! Hitler and these fascists must not be allowed to rule the world! I am willing to sacrifice everything for the freedom and safety of the lives of people all over the world! ”

After making up his mind on the battle, Rear Admiral Theobald gazed firmly at the approaching German aircraft carrier fleet and carrier-based aircraft group, and muttered.
