Chapter 1524: Beyond the Accident!
And when the Luftwaffe Navy and Air Force played the most ferocious set of combination punches since the start of the war, the four aircraft carrier detachments of the Huaxia Fleet and the combined Italian and French fleets have also entered the attack position, and the huge fleet is deployed in a huge quadrilateral shape on the vast sea, if anyone can open a God's perspective, it will be found that the Huaxia Fleet is in the south-west of the German fleet, a distance of about 450 kilometers!
28 aircraft carriers! An unprecedentedly strong lineup! When the Huaxia long-range reconnaissance aircraft and radio sideways cooperated with each other to finally determine the position of the German fleet! The most terrifying beast in the ocean has finally bared its razor-sharp fangs! When the order to attack was given, almost all the aircraft carriers entered the headwind engine position, and under the roar of the engines, these most terrifying war machines began to accelerate, and when the speed reached 28 knots, it was a little difficult for the ground crew standing on the deck to move, and the synthetic wind speed on the deck at this time had reached the ideal state. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info and when the baffle at the front of the deck was lowered, the rows of planes showed their hideous faces! "This could be our last fight! Boys, seize this opportunity! A ground crew member walked over and checked the plane one last time and said to the pilot!
When the take-off order was finally given, more than 1,000 various aircraft on 28 aircraft carriers began to take off one after another! On average, each aircraft carrier will take off about 40 aircraft of various kinds, at the top of the line are the Skua fighters, who can take off with their own engines, when the first plane roars off the deck, the second plane is brought to the center of the flight runway, and when the folded wings are lowered, it can take off, and the starting fighters take off at an average speed of forty seconds!
With the help of a small tractor, the aircraft is replaced into the ejection position, and then connected with the connecting rod of the catapult, and the surging power is imported into the catapult from the main engine into the catapult in a very short time. The plane was accelerated to the speed of take-off, and the huge gravitational acceleration produced a powerful push back feeling, accompanied by a shrill whistling sound, and a Seahawk fighter successfully took off from the deck.
The whole process of flying and marshalling lasted about 45 minutes. However, unlike in the past, all the aircraft groups did not form a large formation, but formed three smaller formations, and the Skua III fighters rushed to the battlefield immediately after taking off. Then there was the formation of twin-engine attack aircraft, which, after taking off, set out on the journey without waiting for the jet that would take off at the end. And by the time the last jet took off, the single-engine propeller fighter had already been gone for about 25 minutes! If you convert it into a distance, it's about 200 kilometers!
"If the estimate is good, propeller aircraft and fighters will arrive almost simultaneously, and the attack aircraft unit will be a little slower. It's already the best we can do. Looking at the aircraft models representing the fleet on the drawing board flying along the predetermined route in exchange, Ye Ming was still a little worried. The problem of coordination between different models is really tricky. Ye Ming can only do as much as possible to smooth out the speed difference between the two through distance, about 200 kilometers, it is estimated that the jet will be able to catch up in less than 1 hour. And at this time, the two fleets of Huaxia should have already fought with the German direct guard fleet!
The situation is very good now, at least very good for Sumer. The Germans regarded the decoy fleet as the main fleet, and launched a wave of terrifying attacks, but they did not notice the real beast hidden on the side, as long as it took an hour, the Huaxia fighter group could contact the German defense group, and in an hour and a half, the attack aircraft force could attack! In three hours at most, the Chinese fleet will be victorious, and the decades-long efforts of the German High Seas Fleet will be reduced to a wreck in the Indian Ocean.
However, there are always some surprises in the world. Shortly after the take-off of the Huaxia group, a German ocean-going reconnaissance aircraft discovered a large number of targets that suddenly appeared in the middle of the air! Radar screens are covered like stars! And at the first time, the captain of this ocean-going reconnaissance plane subconsciously characterized it as the main aircraft group in China! At this time, he did not know that the German fleet had discovered the so-called "main fleet of China". Accompanied by the transmission of radio waves. The telegram, which wasn't too late, was delivered to Raeder!
"Damn!" The moment he saw the telegram, Raeder instantly felt a black in front of him, and a slightly salty liquid gushed up! What is on this telegram is terrible! If this is true, the survival time of the German High Seas Fleet can only be calculated in minutes! Time was so tight that Raeder couldn't even tell if what the intelligence said was true!
"Isn't there an incoming fleet of planes in the direction of the Gulf of Aden?" Raeder asked, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart.
"Not yet, our reconnaissance aircraft did detect a massive fleet. There are also aircraft carriers among them, but there are not as many as you think. The opposing fleet has risen into the air, but it looks more like defense than offense. At least for 2 hours, we are safe to the west. The officer next to him said.
"That's good! That's good! Raeder muttered to himself as he judged the situation he was facing, the German fleet was about 400 kilometers away from the "Huaxia fleet" in the Gulf of Aden, and it would take about an hour for the Huaxia carrier-based aircraft to fly this distance. The opponent is not ready to take off, and if you count the time of take-off and formation, the attack will not reach the sky over the fleet until two hours later. This is just a theoretical calculation, if it is practical, I am afraid that it may not be possible to launch an attack in three hours, after all, there are no reconnaissance planes coming from the west around the German fleet now! The other party should not know their exact location.
And if the intelligence of the reconnaissance plane is correct, then the strike group coming from the south will only take an hour and a half at most, in the crisis situation, Raeder finally thought of the previous suspicions, he has realized that he has been deceived, and the full force of the Luftwaffe may only destroy a decoy fleet in the end!
"In any case, the safety of the fleet must come first! Even if we lose the opportunity to withdraw our land forces to Europe, a complete fleet can still maintain a deterrent to the American and British fleets in the Atlantic, and it seems unlikely that China will go to the Atlantic to help the British and Americans! In just a few minutes, Raeder decided to defend against the attack from the south first, and with only this amount of troops, it was obviously impossible to block the opponent's attack! Even counting the Me262 of the Luftwaffe is not enough!
"Hopefully, this time, Kesselring won't give me trouble!" The so-called open bow has no turning back arrow, and this arrow has gone out. How else to change? Theoretically, the Air Force could completely ignore the Navy and continue with its own plans, discovering that the opponent was the Navy. Then according to the intelligence of the Navy, the Air Force launched an attack, and now the Navy suddenly said that it was a mistake, hurry back and save me! Not to mention how awkward Kesselring is in his heart, it is difficult to change purely from a technical point of view, and the range of the plane is limited. The entire fleet suddenly turned around to look for an unknown enemy, and the most likely result was that before the opponent could be found, they had to turn back! And for this point, the Navy cannot blame the Air Force for not cooperating at all! Because everything in the Air Force is done in accordance with the intelligence of the Navy!
"Ryder really has a problem for me!" When Kesselring saw the information sent by Raeder, he was also frightened! However, on the surface, he calmly handed the information to the little Richthofen next to him, "What should we do?" Tell me your opinion. ”
"Reduce the losses, keep the Navy as much as possible, whether it is true or not, the requirements of the Navy should be taken care of." Little Richthofen thought for a moment and said. And this decision was later known as Richthofen's decision to change history, and it was also the most correct decision he made in the shortest time in his life! It was because of his decision that the German Navy was not pushed to death by the sudden attack of the Chinese fleet! Of course, when this decision was made, the Luftwaffe had no theoretical chance of winning! To paraphrase a phrase in the stock market, it is called, cut the meat and stop the loss!
Now the whole time left for the Germans is only 2 hours, and in a little more than an hour, the fighter units of the two sides will meet, and in another 45 minutes at most, the attack planes of the Huaxia may have already attacked! Kesselring and Richthofen Jr. didn't even have time to make a plan! They can only give a somewhat vague order, as to how effective it will be. It depends on the level of the commander leading the team below!
"I order that all the aircraft escorting the bomber force, with the exception of the FW190 fighters and the ME262 fighters, assemble in the direction of the High Seas Fleet! All units in large groups rushed to the skies over the high seas fleet as soon as possible. Take part in fleet air defense operations! Kesselring's final order to the attacking force was less than 100 words in Chinese, but that was enough. And just right!
The range of the FW190D fighter is limited, and even if they are transferred out, I am afraid that there will not be much fuel for combat in the skies over the fleet, and the same is true for the ME262 fighter, so. The only support force that the Air Force can pull out is only 335, the former is Germany's most elite propeller fighter, according to the Germans, they will become the fierce rival of the Skua 3 fighter, and the DO335 fighter is Germany's best attack aircraft killer at present, and it is also the fighter with the largest range, they are used to deal with the attack aircraft group of Huaxia is no better, as for the jet fighters in the Huaxia fleet? The Germans can only do their best! Let's hope the ME262 fighter doesn't disappoint!
As for talking about the formation of Magic Box bombers and FW190D fighters in the fleet. They will continue to attack Huaxia's decoy fleet, after all, there is no point in the bombers rushing to the sky above the high seas fleet, and it is even more unlikely to find the main fleet to deal with, not to mention that the opponent's position has not yet been determined, even if they know, I am afraid that they are also outside the bomber range, even if the range is okay, time is also a problem, and by the time their magic box flies over, Huaxia's jets are already in full array. That's still a hair! Therefore, instead of losing this elite army in vain, it is better to solve the Huaxia lure enemy fleet first with the idea of how much you can get!
"We will face an enemy who is stronger than ever, there will be some kind of new jet in the opposing group, they may be even stronger than our Storm Bird, but we have no choice, if we retreat, or if we are defeated, then we will lose the whole Middle East, and the other side will close in on our homeland! For the sake of the Empire and its subjects! I think you all know what to do! Mayuse, who has been promoted to captain, said on the team's internal channel.
Unlike in history, the Luftwaffe's top pilot was no longer flying a BF109, but a brand new TA152, and as the most elite pilot, he could have replaced himself with a ME262. But he was not satisfied with the difficulty of this kind of operation and the high failure rate of the aircraft. "I can already guarantee that I will not be shot down by any opponent with the TA152 fighter, so I don't want to be forced to parachute because of the problem with the aircraft!"
That being said, he still has a correct understanding of jets, and their speed is their most fearsome weapon! Unless they run out of energy or attack the opponent is likely to shoot them down, even the most advanced TA152 fighter will not be enough to hunt down jets! He has realized that this is going to be a very brutal battle, and he needs to give his players a fairly clear idea of the future!
And just when Mayuse was mobilizing, the German Navy's fighters and ME262 fighters could already see the incoming Huaxia fleet! If you look at it from the radar, the huge Huaxia fighter force is like two huge pieces of bread, the Sea Hawk jet fighter is flying at an altitude of more than 8,000 meters, and the Skua 3 plane is flying at a medium and high altitude of about 6,500 meters.
On the other hand, the German army, although the ME262 group and the FW190D group fought in large groups, the distance between them was not large at that time, and they were all at an altitude of 6000 to 7000 meters, from the overall point of view, it was more like a whole, and the formation of the Huaxia group also gave the Germans some hope for victory, and the opponent's forces were somewhat scattered, which seemed to be an opportunity!
"Our first mission is to hunt the opponent's jets, the second mission is to hunt the opponent's propeller fighters, and the third mission is to hunt down all the opponent's planes that can fly! Sweep the airspace clean! Pave the way for attack aircraft units in the rear! As the most elite fighter unit in China, these sea and air blades will become an eternal nightmare for German pilots! The first dive of the Seahawk fighter with an easy speed of 920 put a lot of pressure on the Germans!
