Chapter 1039: Each Break

The Fury first released a group of fighters, a bomber and a torpedo plane to attack the opponent, and at about the same time, the Liaoning of the Huaxia Navy released a group of aircraft of the same size, and the Jiangsu also released a group of fighters and a torpedo plane...... And after the release of the first wave of attacks, the two aircraft carriers of the Huaxia Navy did not rebuild new attack aircraft, but immediately went all out to rebuild fighters!

From Thomas's point of view, he could immediately sense that the situation had slipped into the abyss of defeat! Although he doesn't know much about the Air Force, he can still tell the result from the quantity, the Fury sent 4 planes to attack the opponent, and the other party sent 6 planes to attack the Fury, this wave passed, there was only 1 fighter left on the Fury, and the opponent only escorted the fighter plane, that is to say, this wave of attacks passed, and the Fury will be beaten to the ground without even scum!

So will the British Air Force be able to break through the air defense of the Chinese people? Thomas is not optimistic, first of all, there is one fighter in the sky over the Huaxia fleet circling and covering, and then the two Huaxia aircraft carriers do not prepare new attack aircraft, but go all out to rebuild fighters, and fighter rearmament is much easier, after all, according to the regulations of the exercise...... Loading machine gun bullets, fueling and warming up aircraft can be carried out in hangars, while hanging bombs and torpedoes must be carried out on deck, as for the reasons? Everyone understands that a bomb exploded on the deck of an aircraft carrier, and most of the energy was put into the air, and if it exploded in a hangar. In addition, because only fighters are released on the aircraft carrier, and the number of fighters released at the same time is much less than the maximum limit, it is also much more convenient to position the crew, which is something to consider!. …。

In the more than an hour that the British fleet flew from a kilometer away, it was enough for the Huaxia Air Force to complete the preparation of fighters, and at this time there was still one fighter on the Liaoning and one fighter on the Jiangsu, plus 14 fighters hovering in the air. British attack aircraft cried. Well, the British still have the Eagle aircraft carrier, but this sad cargo can only release 1 fighter and 1 attack aircraft at most, and the attack waves are certainly unlikely to coincide, and the final result is that when the 6 planes of Huaxia Hainan Airlines slaughtered the fleet of the Fury, it was still unfinished. The planes from the aircraft carrier Eagle are coming to the door again! This is really looking for death.

And as a participant in the exercise, when Cunningham heard a large group of 6 planes rushing up from the opposing side. He knew that he was going to die, and even if he did a remedy and released all 1 fighters, it would be useless. 1 plus aircraft intercepted a large swarm of 6 aircraft is simply an impossible task even if it is impossible. After successfully fighting out the opposing fighters and 6 attack aircraft, Cunningham's 1 fighter was all turned into a shootdown mark, and then the remaining 34 attack aircraft launched a brutal onlooker against the British fleet! It has to be said that the British were lucky, and after the surface battleships fought out 4 fighters and 4 attack planes of the opponent at the last moment, the remaining 3 dive bombers and torpedo planes slammed into the Fury, and finally hit the Fury with 4 torpedoes and bombs. The entire battleship was completely devoid of ..........

Just when the Fury hated the sea, its carrier-based aircraft group also experienced purgatory-like tribulation. When the British group reached the top of the Chinese naval fleet, first one fighter swooped down to the British escort planes from a high altitude, and then another fighter swooped down to the British bomber group from a high altitude. Then there was a group of torpedo planes that dived from the altitude to attack the British, and another aircraft continued to hover over standby. And then there was 1 fighter left on deck!

After some fighting, the fighters of both sides were tied. After losing 1 aircraft each, they were. The torpedo plane was very sad, its speed was low, the altitude was also low, and it was directly blown up in the face of the attack of 1 fighter, and none of them went back, and the dive bomber was more lucky, and finally a dive bomber successfully penetrated the opponent's defense and then dropped bombs on the heavy cruisers on the periphery, yes, you read that right. It's the bombing of cruisers, not aircraft carriers! Because there is still 1 plane waiting for you over the two aircraft carriers. If you continue to rush, you will definitely lose everything! So Lieutenant Colonel Potter decisively chose a relatively easy target. The shaved head of the British fleet during the exercise was finally averted, and it was later considered by the British Navy to be the only correct decision of Mr. Potter in the first battle. A bomber hit a bomb. As a result, one shot slapped on the torpedo tube of the heavy cruiser! …………。

"How do I remember that none of our cruisers have torpedoes?" After seeing the battle report, the corners of Deng Shichang's mouth twitched, as early as one year ago, all the first-line warships of the Huaxia Navy of more than 8 tons had removed their torpedoes. And there were no torpedoes on the new cruiser either!

"Friendship first, competition second. Is it just for fun, why make it so embarrassing? Ye Zusi, who was next to him, couldn't help but laugh and whispered. Will I tell you that the torpedo tube was added just a few minutes ago? ”

"Lao Ye, you're too much, you can change an ammunition depot." Deng Shichang understood it at once, and secretly scolded Ye Zusi in his heart for being too inauthentic.

"Forget it, pay attention next time." Ye Zusi said lightly. "Do you want to have a next time?" Deng Shichang couldn't help pouting and said.

Just after the Huaxia direct guard fighters slaughtered the German aircraft group sent out on the Fury, the entire Huaxia fleet also began to turn to the north...... Although there were at least 3 fighters hovering in the air at this time, for the sake of safety, Ye Ming still ordered the fleet to move north to avoid the attack wave of the Eagle. It was not a matter of timidity, but a decision made after some careful study, first of all, at this time the attacking furious fleet had returned, the entire deck had been emptied, and the aircraft carrier had to meet the recovered fleet against the wind. At this time, the self-defense capability of the aircraft carrier is the worst. And the empty deck also means that the aircraft carrier can no longer replenish fighters, although it is not reflected in this exercise, but from a real combat point of view, the aircraft carrier fleet must carry out appropriate evasion, even in the case of superiority. As a result, the two aircraft carriers began to recover the planes, and the fierce battle came to an end.........

"The Huaxia fleet has gone north to evade, what should we do?" Portall looked at the group of attack planes representing his own side on the sand table and said helplessly. "Retreat, let's withdraw from the warring seas and admit defeat." Cunningham said with a gloomy face. The words are full of frustration. But there was no delay in making the decision. "The attack wave has been released, so let's go back? Not quite right? Shall we not try again? Portale said reluctantly.

"If the other side goes north, it will further widen the distance between them, and they are already on the verge of our attack, and even if we can catch up, the other side will have at least more fighters in the air, and maybe we can replenish the fighters, our attack will not work. At least we can keep an aircraft carrier by evacuating for now. "As a naval officer, Cunningham knows how precious an aircraft carrier is, and if it does not break through the treaty limits, then the British Navy can only keep about one aircraft carrier at most. When the situation of war is irretrievable, taking the initiative to evacuate becomes the only option.

As a result, the second wave of aircraft that went to attack the Huaxia Navy began to return. And the British fleet headed towards the southern edge. Just when the Huaxia Navy was re-rearmament and ready to continue the search for the Eagle to annihilate it. Information came from the exercise director that the British fleet had withdrawn from the area of engagement, and the exercise ended early. When the Huaxia Navy won the victory, Ye Ming finally breathed a sigh .........of relief, and he finally lived up to his mission.

"Thank you very much to the Huaxia Admiralty for arranging this exercise for our side, which let us know another way of thinking about aircraft carrier operations, and our previous views on aircraft carriers were still biased." Thomas's kung fu is still very good, and he has been fighting in officialdom and on the battlefield for more than ten years, even if he is depressed in his heart, he must fulfill the etiquette. What's more, in his opinion, the Chinese Navy's deduction has benefited the British Navy a lot.

Which is more important, face or lining, Thomas will definitely choose the latter. And it doesn't lose much face, after all, this is a secret deduction carried out in secret, not publicly. None of the middle and lower echelons of the Navy will know about this, and since the vast majority of people do not know, the impact of this failure will be greatly reduced. …。

"If our aircraft carriers were armored deck carriers and we had brought more fighters, I'm afraid the situation would be very different." While Thomas and Deng Shichang and the others were talking politely, Cunningham and Potel had already begun to study the reasons for the failure of the engagement. Portale first elaborated his understanding from the perspective of aviation.

"And aircraft carrier formations for combat...... The idea of dismantling the aircraft carrier and then splitting it into a combined attack is nothing more than wishful thinking. Eventually, it will become a refueling tactic, which will lead to the defeat of the opponent's superior air superiority power one by one. Cunningham explained the reasons for the victory of the Chinese Navy from the perspective of the fleet..........

Just when the two were chatting. Thomas has finished his conversation with Deng Shichang. The two sides agreed to go to Dalian a week later to inspect the construction of China's first fleet aircraft carrier, the Liaoning. Then Thomas, who was pale, took away the British "officers who participated in the war" who had lost the battle. "Go back and learn the lessons of today. It was the first defeat of the British Empire's aircraft carrier fleet. At the same time, I hope that this is the last defeat! Thomas said with some annoyance.

At the same time, Ye Ming, who won the victory, did not get carried away, and similarly, the Huaxia participating team led by him also had to sum up the lessons and lessons, not to mention that a traverser was not very satisfied with his performance.
