Chapter 122: Yamamoto Fifty-six is dead

Just before Chen Yanlong could see the facilities of the training base clearly, Dönitz and Marshal Richthofen came over with a loaded marine squadron to greet Chen Yanlong and them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the same time, behind them, there are also 10 Pursuer tank destroyers and soldiers, guarding them.

These units were all set up at the aircraft carrier training base by Chen Yanlong's order and used to protect the base.

Of course, the German Marines still had them during World War II, although in 1943 there were only one brigade-sized marines, which was nothing compared to Britain and the United States.

But something is better than nothing, and Chen Yanlong has also issued an order for Dönitz to speed up the formation of more marines, especially the famous Marine Corps like the German "Battle Frogman" squadron in World War II, and to vigorously support the formation and training.

In addition to Dönitz and Marshal Hitthofen, there were also some naval training regiments; The officers of the military port and the officers of the warships also followed.

After a brief greeting, Chen Yanlong, under the leadership of Dönitz and the others, went to watch the German pilots and other aircraft carrier personnel conduct aircraft carrier start-up, piloting, and combat simulation training.

For example, on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, aircraft mechanics, taxiing signalmen, hook officers, wheel blockers; How fire damage controllers, signalmen, sailors, ammunition men, refuelers, and gunners at various gun emplacements, and all the officers and men of the mothership worked together and worked hard to shoot the F4U "Corsair" fighter and the F6F Hellcat fighter into the air.

Of course, in addition to these aircraft carrier personnel, Chen Yanlong also watched how those ace German pilots and those new recruit pilots practiced flying carrier-based aircraft for catapult take-off training, as well as take-off and landing training.

After seeing that the training of those carrier-based pilots was barely getting by, Chen Yanlong praised Dönitz and Marshal Richthofen with satisfaction.

"I am very happy that you have been able to build this aircraft carrier training base for me in such a short period of time, and to enable these new carrier-based aircraft pilots to learn so quickly! You have truly made outstanding contributions to the Admiralty of our Empire! ”

Chen Yanlong smiled in a praising tone.

For Chen Yanlong's appreciation, Dönitz and Marshal Richthofen also happily thanked Chen Yanlong for his appreciation.

"In fact, we were able to build this aircraft carrier training base so quickly, not because you asked Speer to send a large number of laborers to help us build; And the advanced aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft groups that you gave us, as well as the building materials and resources needed to build the training base, as well as the design drawings, etc., allowed us to complete the construction of this base so quickly and smoothly! ”

Dönitz smiled and quickly agreed.

For him, the current Chen Yanlong is simply the god of wealth and the big financier of his naval forces.

So Dönitz, who rarely shoots people's sycophants, still patted Chen Yanlong with a bright smile.

Seeing this, Chen Yanlong just smiled slightly and did not respond immediately.

"Ahh That's right! Führer, I would like to ask, we now have aircraft carriers, and carrier-based aircraft, as well as aircraft carrier training bases; But when will there be supporting ships for our aircraft carrier group? ”

At this moment, Field Marshal Richthofen also suddenly interjected.

"I'll do it as soon as possible! By the way, how many ships do we have in our current naval fleet? Can you pick some of them out? And the battleship Tirpitz and the battlecruiser Scharnhorst, which I asked you to speed up repairs the other day, have they been repaired? ”

Chen Yanlong asked suddenly.

"We have less than 12 ships left, and the battleship Tirpitz and the battlecruiser Scharnhorst are all in good repairs, because they didn't do much damage in the first place!"

Dönitz replied without thinking about it.

"Then send them all to me! I'm going to use them to form a powerful carrier fleet for me, no! It's two or three! ”

Chen Yanlong nodded his head lightly and said calmly.

"But the Führer! Didn't you send them to Norway a few months ago to attack the Anglo-American Allied fleet on the Northern Route? ”

Dönitz was surprised.

"I want to change my mind now? May I? ”

Hearing this, Chen Yanlong immediately stared at Dönitz with unhappy eyes, and at the same time said coldly.

"Yes! Absolutely! Führer wise! Führer victory! ”

Being looked at by Chen Yanlong like this, Dönitz didn't dare to speak more for a moment, but immediately changed his tone 360 degrees.

"Hmmm! That's good! But don't worry! I promised you other ships to build the carrier fleet I wanted, and I will do it as soon as possible! It's just that I don't want to do it with a lot of fanfare right now! Because I don't want to attract a large number of British and American allied planes to come here and bomb indiscriminately! Destroy the aircraft carrier training base we have secretly built! ”

Chen Yanlong was satisfied with Dönitz's performance and smiled slightly.

"The Führer is wise! Führer victory! ”

Dönitz chimed in.

At the same time, the other people around him, including Field Marshal Richthofen, echoed Chen Yanlong with the same words.

"Then you can give me a good job and train me the most powerful aircraft carrier fleet in the world!"

Chen Yanlong's eyes were sharp, staring at everyone and saying loudly.

"Yes! Monarch! Victorious Führer! ”

Everyone replied loudly in unison.

"But Führer, we still lack some aircraft carrier commanders with actual combat experience to guide our recruits to become excellent aircraft carrier commanders!"

As soon as the words fell, Marshal Richthofen suddenly interjected and asked.

"Hmmm! Didn't I ask you and Dönitz to send people to Japan to hire those experienced aircraft carrier commanders to come over and teach our people to be good aircraft carrier commanders? ”

Chen Yanlong said with a puzzled face.

"We have sent officers to Japan, but their best admiral, Isoroku Yamamoto, commander of the Combined Fleet of the Japanese Navy; Already on April 18 of this year, a group of 18 P-38 Lightning" fighters sent out by the U.S. military to "hunt peacocks" was shot down and killed! So our personnel don't know exactly what it would be better to hire those Japanese aircraft carrier commanders! Moreover, many Japanese aircraft carrier commanders are unable or unwilling to come to Germany to teach aircraft carrier command combat techniques and tactics! ”

Field Marshal Richthofen explained awkwardly.

“……”

Hearing this, Chen Yanlong was speechless for a while.
