Chapter 558 Bombing the aircraft carrier

In fact, Marcos was not very satisfied with only dispatching one battleship to command and combat. Although he was just the captain of a destroyer now, he thought he could get a small fleet or even a large fleet of aircraft carrier fleets to command and combat.

Of course this was just his fantasy. He thought that in reality, if he wanted to command a fleet or a commander of an aircraft carrier fleet, he might not be able to become an officer of a proud and small destroyer like him.

Otherwise, how could those senior officers with higher qualifications, strong backgrounds, and rich combat experience be convinced?

So after returning to reality, Marcos, who was in a displeasure, hurriedly went to the battleship he had assigned to follow the aircraft carrier fleet to prepare to fight against the German aircraft carrier fleet.

At this time, the German submarine troops were also scattered in all directions, divided into teams and surrounded the British and American fleets, preparing for a sudden attack.

But for the British and American forces, their aircraft carrier cordon fleet also has one light aircraft carrier, eight cruisers, and six destroyers deployed on the line.

The lineup of the German troops on the front line they are about to face are three fast battleships, three heavy cruisers, 13 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier.

The British and American destroyer fleet was still unaware of this at a speed of 24 knots.

At this time, the German Navy Air Force had wiped out all the British and American reconnaissance aircraft units they encountered and the fighter aircraft units, leaving no one left.

Although the number of British and American aircraft shot down and sunk was not large, it was enough for the German army to ignite their stronger combat morale, prepare for the next round of sea and air combat, and fight for maritime air supremacy with British and American troops.

"At 2:55, 8 enemy cruisers, 6 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier were found, but there was no aircraft cover; the enemy was 020 nautical miles away from our army, and we were driving towards the enemy!"

A moment later, the German front-line aircraft carriers and fleets also received telegrams from sea reconnaissance planes and radars, and reported to discover the British and American fleets.

So the fleet's speed also slowed down from 30 knots to 21 knots, sailing, and approaching the British and American fleets, preparing to start war.

At the same time, the ground crew on the deck of the German aircraft carrier were also refueling the carrier-based aircraft group that was ready to go and the bomber group to check the ammunition equipment.

After a long time, with the sound of deafening roars, 40 F-8D fighters, 20 Do 217s, and 40 He-177 heavy bombers immediately took off one after another on the flight deck and attacked the British and American fleets.

Under the escort of 40 F-8D fighters, a total of 60 bombers were divided into three brigades, quickly approaching the British and American fleets, ready to attack.

"Enemy bomber, starboard 45 degrees, close to high altitude!"

"Enemy torpedo aircraft, 38 degrees on the port side, close to low altitude!"

"Enemy fighter fleet is approaching at an altitude of 100 nautical miles!"

"The enemy's three fast battleships, three heavy cruisers, 13 destroyers, and 1 light aircraft carrier, with a position of 18 minutes north latitude, 08 minutes west longitude, voyage X degrees, and a speed of 21 knots, are quickly approaching our fleet!"

At this time, the British and American aircraft carrier fleet also searched from radar and the lookout posters on the bridge. They also discovered the emergence of the German aircraft carrier fleet and reported on their own aircraft carrier fleet.

Almost as the British and American outpost fleet received a report on the emergence of the German fleet, the German fighter fleet and bomber fleet also rushed to the sky above the British and American aircraft carrier fleets on these fronts and began to attack.

Looking upwards with the harsh whistle, you can soon see that under the cover of F-8D fighter jets, 20 Do 217s and 40 He-177 heavy bombers dived down one after another, knocking down the first batch of 8 aircraft bombs, like raindrops, and causing the water columns stirring up by the explosion to pounce on the aircraft carrier deck like huge waves.

But soon 15 aviation bombs fell from the sky again, all of which fell on the planes on the starboard side of the aircraft carrier that were preparing to take off to face the attack. 12 British and American aircraft were reimbursed at once, and a fire broke out on the aircraft carrier.
