In the southwestern waters of the Azores, eight aircraft carriers of the German Navy's Atlantic Fleet and a large fleet of cruisers and destroyers were sailing in this area of ​​sea. The direction of the fleet was exactly the northwest. Although the fleet was not fast, they were going deeper into the ocean little by little, hoping to find the US Navy's aircraft carrier formation from the vast Atlantic Ocean and then launch an attack.

Like the Atlantic Fleet, the aircraft carrier formations of the local fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet are also sailing westward. When fighters taking off on the Azores attack the US main ship formation, attacking the US aircraft carrier formations became the top priority of the aircraft carrier formations of the three major German Navy fleets. Even if the entire US Navy's main ship formation is killed, it cannot be considered a victory in this naval battle. Only by severely damaging or even destroying the US Navy's aircraft carrier formations in one fell swoop can it be considered a victory.

The eight aircraft carriers of the Atlantic Fleet are all ready for combat. Fighters, dive bombers and torpedoes have been refueled, bombs and torpedoes have been registered, and are ready for takeoff.

Even in the hangar below the deck, the fighter planes inside are ready. Once the plane on the deck takes off, the planes inside the hangar can be lifted to the deck with lifts to launch an attack as a second wave of fighter planes.

Admiral Rolf Carls seemed a little anxious on the Atlantic Fleet's flagship aircraft carrier "Zeus". Although, in the battle last night, the battleship formation of the Atlantic Fleet's main ships solved the four U.S. Fleet's main ships at the cost of a heavy blow. However, this did not make Admiral Rolf Carls happy for much longer. In the eyes of Admiral Rolf Carls, the US Navy's aircraft carrier was their real target.

The battleship formation of the US Navy has suffered heavy losses after experiencing a showdown with the German Navy's main ships. Now, the battleship formation of the US Navy has been sieged by the German Navy's shore-based aircraft. Needless to think about it, the battleship formation of the US Navy is over. Even if it will not be wiped out, the situation will not be much better.

At this time, the German Navy must continue to work hard to find the position of the US Navy's aircraft carrier formation and annihilate it.

"General, I just received the news that the US Navy's aircraft carrier may be 350 kilometers northwest of us!" said Lieutenant General George Fredberg, Chief of Staff of the Fleet.

"What? That place? Is it so close to us? Admiral Rolf Karls couldn't believe it.

Indeed, the distance of 350 kilometers seems to be relatively far. But for an aircraft carrier, this is not far, it is already completely within the strike radius of the carrier-based aircraft. Even after the carrier-based aircraft takes off, it only takes less than an hour to launch an attack.

"One of our light cruiser's air search radar tracked the fighter jets that the US military provided air defense cover for the main battleship formation. It determined the descent height of the US carrier-based aircraft landed. From this, the location of the US aircraft carrier was inferred." Lieutenant General George Fredberg said.

Admiral Rolf Carls nodded. If this is the case, the credibility of this message will undoubtedly be very high.

"General, do you want to send a plane to investigate? Anyway, the distance is not far, and it won't take much time to investigate." Lieutenant General George Fredberg suggested.

"Forget it, don't waste time. Order our carrier-based aircraft to take off! This is an opportunity for us. We must never miss this opportunity!" Lieutenant General Rolf Karls made a choice in his heart.

"Order all carrier-based aircraft to take off except for leaving air defense fighters. The backup fighters will also be added to the air defense fighters! This time, we must make the Americans pay the price!" Lieutenant General Rolf Carls ordered.

He knew very well that if a carrier-based aircraft was sent to launch an attack, the Americans might follow the direction of the German carrier-based aircraft, find their positions and then launch an attack. But now, he no longer cares about so many. If he could start the attack first and use the detection range of the American air search radar, it would be impossible to release a large number of carrier-based aircraft to attack them.

"Yes, General." Lieutenant General George Fredberg replied.

"In addition, after both batches of carrier-based aircraft took off, the fleet turned southwest." Lieutenant General Rolf Karls continued.

In order to avoid the enemy's carrier-based aircraft, the aircraft carrier formation should preferably turn to leave the original sea after releasing the carrier-based aircraft. In this way, even if the enemy searches in the direction of its own carrier-based aircraft, it may not be possible.

A carrier-based F-190 fighter took off from the aircraft carrier "Zeus".

The other seven aircraft carriers also began to take off combat aircraft. However, the four "Master God-class" aircraft carriers were carrier-based F-190 fighters, while the four "Constellation-class" aircraft carriers were carrier-based BF-109 fighters.

The first wave of eight aircraft carriers of the German Navy Atlantic Fleet can take off 96 fighters, 144 dive bombers and 120 torpedo attack aircraft. The second wave of aircraft can also take off so many carrier-based aircraft. In addition, there are 96 fighters left to provide air defense protection for the fleet. In addition, among the spare aircraft of each aircraft carrier, 28 fighters can be raised to defend air. This means that even if it is attacked by enemy carrier-based aircraft, the German Navy Atlantic Fleet will have more than 120 fighters to meet the enemy's aircraft carrier formation.

This time, in order to severely damage the US Navy's aircraft carrier formation, the German Navy's Atlantic Fleet tried its best. After the first wave of aircraft took off, the second wave of aircraft would be lifted from the hangar and then take off.

"Swish!Swish!"

One after another, the planes slid quickly on the flight deck and then rushed to the sky. This scene makes people excited.

The first one to take off was the fighter jet, followed by the dive bomber, and finally the torpedo attack aircraft. At the same time, the aircraft in the hangar began to be lifted to the deck with lifts to prepare for the second wave of takeoff.

"Send telegrams to the local fleet and the Mediterranean fleet, and ask them to dispatch carrier-based aircraft as well!" Lieutenant General Rolf Carls suddenly asked.

Lieutenant General George Fredberg, who was standing beside him, was stunned, and seemed to have not expected that such an order would be issued in Rolf Carls.
