Prince Heinrich was the third child of Frederick III and the younger brother of Wilhelm II. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Previously, it was in service with the German Navy. He served as Commander of the High Seas Fleet, Inspector General of the Navy.

When Prince Heinrich was preparing to retire, Qin Tian approached him and asked him to serve as the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet. Prince Heinrich was very interested in the new weapon of aircraft carriers, although he had never seen them. In particular, Qin Tian described to him that the future aircraft carrier will become the absolute main force of the navy, which makes Prince Heinrich fascinated.

Because of this, Prince Heinrich accepted Qin Tian's invitation and became the first commander of the German Navy's aircraft carrier fleet. It can be said that the aircraft carrier fleet was able to quickly form combat effectiveness, and Prince Heinrich made a lot of efforts. Now, it's time to see the payoff.

Reinhart? Less than twenty minutes after Admiral Scheer's order was given, the first carrier-based aircraft took off from the aircraft carrier USS Pioneer. Immediately after that, the aircraft carrier "Victory" also began to take off carrier-based aircraft.

The first to take off were lighter fighters, and the torpedo attack aircraft were heavier and required a longer runway, so they took off last.

At present, the two aircraft carriers of the German Navy carry only two carrier-based aircraft, fighter aircraft and torpedo attack aircraft. As for Qin Tian's preferred dive bomber, it has not yet been successfully developed due to the constraints of technical conditions. If you use a normal bomber to carry out horizontal bombing, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to hit a target moving at high speed on the sea surface. In contrast, torpedo aircraft are undoubtedly a greater threat to surface warships. Even light aviation torpedoes can pose a lethal threat to small and medium-sized warships. Even, if the armor of the battleship is a little weaker, it may not be able to withstand it.

Watching one after another carrier-based planes take off from the deck and hover over the aircraft carrier, waiting for other fighters to form a formation, Prince Heinrich was very excited.

"I thought I would never have the chance to fight the British Navy again. But I didn't expect that I would be able to re-engage in this way. Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for allowing me to fulfill my wish. May God bless the aircraft carrier fleet of the Imperial Navy and be able to start victorious. Prince Heinrich said secretly.

How could a man who was an admiral and commander of the High Seas Fleet not want to be involved in a decisive battle with the British Royal Navy? Especially when the German navy has already gained the upper hand, it is undoubtedly more desirable to be able to leave its name in this big war.

Because of the range of the current fighters, half of the fighters that took off first from the aircraft carrier "Pioneer" and "Victory" flew to the west after completing the formation. After the remaining fighters took off, they were regrouped.

Both the USS Pioneer and USS Victory are capable of carrying only 48 carrier-based aircraft. This is mainly because the Atlantic Ocean is windy and rough and not as calm as the Pacific Ocean, so the aircraft carrier must consider the sea conditions here, and naturally it is impossible to carry a large number of carrier-based aircraft on each aircraft carrier like the United States and Japan in another time and space.

The first batch of carrier-based aircraft included 24 fighters and 24 torpedo attack aircraft. The second batch of 48 carrier-based aircraft were all torpedo attack aircraft.

In the absence of air force in the British Navy, the carrier-based aircraft units of the German Navy hardly had to compete with them for air supremacy. In addition, the warships of the British Navy did not have weapons for anti-aircraft shooting, which made the carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy almost useless to be hit. The only thing they had to do was find the British Navy and attack.

Of course, with the guidance of the battle cruiser forces of the German Navy, finding the main fleet of the British Navy was not a problem at all. This also makes this attack completely undifficult.

As the minutes passed, the carrier-based aircraft that took off from the aircraft carriers of the German Navy gradually approached the main fleet of the British Navy. Originally, for these carrier-based aircraft, a distance of a hundred kilometers would only take half an hour.

On the battleship 'Revenge', the flagship of the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet, John? Admiral Jericho and David? Lieutenant General Betty is quietly waiting for the decisive battle to come. They knew that the main fleet of the German Navy must be on its way to it, and soon, it would encounter them. As long as this decisive battle is over, whether they win or lose, their mission is over.

"Your Excellency, the battle cruisers of the Germans, who are hanging us like this right in front of us, I guess their main fleet will soon appear." David? Lieutenant General Betty said.

John? Admiral Jericho nodded: "Our decisive battle with the Germans is inevitable. Now we still have 20 battleships, and the Germans have 24 more battleships and 12 battlecruisers, which is 1.8 times more than ours. I only hope that we will be able to take out more than 20 capital ships of the Germans in this battle. In this way, our crisis can be resolved. "John? Admiral Jericho said.

Sinking twenty capital ships of the German Navy, this is Johann? Admiral Jericho's goal. In that case, even they would be completely sunk. But the German Navy, which still had a dozen capital ships left, had already lost a lot of strength, and it was simply impossible to blockade Britain again. In addition, the United States, which has been suppressed by the Germans, will inevitably take the opportunity to intervene. This would buy the British enough time to wait for the construction of their subsequent capital ships to be completed before they could engage in another decisive battle with the German navy. At that point, they may not fail again.

"Your Excellency, it is very difficult to sink more than twenty capital ships of the Germans. But even if we were able to sink fifteen of them, it would be a rare victory. "David? Lieutenant General Betty said.

The strength of the German Navy is the largest in the world. However, if the British navy can make them suffer heavy losses, then the rest of the country may no longer be afraid of the German navy. When the time comes, the British Navy will naturally have a chance.

John? Admiral Jericho nodded.

"Yes, even if we sink fifteen of their capital ships, we will be considered to have inflicted heavy losses on the Germans. I know that to defeat the Germans, it will be very difficult. However, it should still be possible to hit them hard. After all, we dare to fight with them! "John? Jellico said.
