But if we consider that the opponent's aircraft carrier team can run wildly at a speed of 30 knots, and the arrival time of the attack aircraft group may take 2 to 3 hours, then this problem is even more complicated. What if the opponent's fleet avoids it? Therefore, this is a very challenging problem for the technical test of reconnaissance and guidance personnel, and this thing is not easy to contact. Relatively speaking, it is much easier for the fighter and bomber troops to practice air combat and attack seas!

"The attack mission will be handed over to the Swan Castle Air Force and Imperial Air Force. We decided to use 40 K8 bombers and 80 K6 bombers. The entire attack was divided into 3 waves. The K8 bomber group will take off at 4 a.m. and then enter the predetermined sea area for standby. Because the K6 bomber has limited air stagnation time, we decided to take off from 5:30 and then head to the other two predetermined sea areas. We can guarantee that if the British fleet did not start returning at 3 a.m., they will definitely land in a certain sea area where our three aircraft groups are swimming." Admiral Halder said while explaining to the prince through a sand table demonstration.

"Okay, you can arrange the rest yourself. We can do everything we can. The rest is waiting for the result of the battlefield. In addition, send all the reserve planes of the K aircraft fleet out. I think the Count needs their help." Ruprecht said.

"The British have not taken the bait, maybe they have left?" The captain said to Earl Spee on Earl Spee's flagship, Caesar Frederick the Great.

"Leave? There is a possibility, but the bigger possibility is that the bait is not rich enough! The planner of this ambush is a veteran, either Thomas or Betty. I prefer the former. Thomas is a cunning hunter. If it weren't for some technical problems, Su Xiong might have to be buried in the Indian Ocean. As for Betty? I feel that he is more like a bull. He should be fine, fighting, killing, boosting morale, etc., but he can't do a fine job!" Earl Spey is very relaxed now, and even feels in the mood to comment on the senior generals of the British Royal Navy.

"So since the British think that the bait is not abundant enough, then add some more. Find a fleet that can be used to attack and then sink them!" The Count ordered! The Count decided to use himself as bait to hold the opponent! Expose his position and let the British know the position of the battleship. No matter how cautious Thomas is, he will not give up this opportunity, right?

As for whether he can run away? This is half of the quality of his officers and soldiers, and the other half is luck! "If the Air Force can be more powerful, I hope to blow Thomas to death together!" The Earl said maliciously. Judging from his understanding of the British Navy, Evan Thomas is one of the top tactical masters in the British Navy. Earl Spey has already prepared for sacrifice. To be honest, if it weren't for the current comparison of combat effectiveness of the fleets between the two sides, the Earl thought that his life would be a little loss for three fearless and one super fearless! But if Thomas could be taken away, it would be a profit!

This is war, full of cold blood and calculations!

"Damn it! It's the German night owl!" The officers and soldiers on a British auxiliary cruiser exposed to the flare lights cursed the unscrupulous K8 bombers in the night sky! These guys were like death birds. Whenever they appeared above the heads of the British fleet and threw flares, it meant that there might be a German fleet next to them. After all, the Germans would not waste these precious flares in vain.

"Why did those Germans go deep into the Dover Strait again? Didn't they just get severely injured? Didn't they run away?" said a British officer, looking at the slowly falling flares and the huge shadows in the night sky.

A few minutes later, the sudden jumping flames in the distance in the night solved his doubts. Balls of orange flames rose from the sea level. With a loud thunderous sound, the poor auxiliary cruiser was instantly surrounded by water columns!

"Damn it, it's a large caliber naval gun! The Germans didn't leave! I understand sending a message to the headquarters!" The captain of the auxiliary cruiser shouted loudly, and a short telegram was sent out quickly. Then, the auxiliary cruiser modified with civilian ships was destroyed in two German fearless volleys, which took 12 minutes!

"Hisser Commander, the Sturgeon auxiliary cruiser was destroyed. We have determined the time and location of the fire exchange." At this time, an officer said to Thomas in the Bold's super fearless command tower.

"Very good. The Germans used a quarter of an hour to destroy an auxiliary cruiser with a displacement of only 5,000 tons. Do you know what this means?" Thomas said, touching his chin.

"I don't know." The officer opposite was a little puzzled.

"This shows that we only encountered some German fleets, and they dispersed their troops. This is a bait." Thomas said firmly. "They used the way they exposed themselves to cover another group of warships to break through. So, we can't let the other party go as they please. Well, just like that, send a report to the Giant and Hercules, and ask them to bring two light cruisers and two destroyer teams to the sea area where something happened! Kill these two baits for me!"

If Earl Spey was present at this time, he would definitely give Thomas a thumbs up! Because, in this dark night full of crisis, Thomas almost made the most correct and bold choice! He divided his troops to fight while ensuring the blockade line! Night battle is the battlefield that is most easily controlled by accident. At this time, he would be very bold to make the decision of flying soldiers. As for whether this decision is correct? It must be correct! This is a judgment made by Thomas based on the comparison of strength between the two sides! Thomas is not afraid that the Germans deliberately hide their troops to attack him off guard!

Although one German battleship sank, the other two ships are definitely not in good condition. According to the observations of fire control personnel, there were several suspected violent explosions caused by hitting the turret. After all, there is a large amount of ammunition accumulation at the back of the turret. Once it is detonated, a violent explosion will be produced and ordinary hits are different. The remaining two battleships have only 12 12-inch guns in full health. How many useful cannons can be collected now? The two battleships trapped one piece and could not defeat one Giant Dreadnought. As for the other two armored cruisers, Thomas believes that their high-explosive bombs will be as big as the threat of using armor-piercing bombs! It is completely enough to hand them over to Hercules! Therefore, the two dreadnoughts are enough to suppress the entire German fleet. There is no need to send other main battleships.
