Two Hundred and Fourteen Huge Fleet

It was a silent morning, and sea birds were flying everywhere in the harbour. [First Release] If you want to see the most violent collision between human civilization and nature, then go to the port: the shore is the most brilliant science and technology of human beings built of steel and cement; while the ocean is the same as nature. The vastness and breadth of a mother's boundless expanse.

On the tens of thousands of tons of steel supports, hundreds of workers are working frantically to build the fastest ship in human history. German shipyards have never had such a heyday. At the same time, two aircraft carriers with a displacement of nearly 30,000 tons and 14 Hercules transport ships are being built together.

On the sea not far away, the newly formed second fleet is slowly gathering together. Since the High Seas Fleet left this port, the people here have never seen such a huge fleet.

In order to expand their living space, human beings bravely face the waves of the vast sea, in order to become the master of the world, in order to gain the dominance of everything, a newly rising empire is using its immature fangs to an old king. Take on the challenge of forging ahead.

The two fleet aircraft carriers "Tirpitz" and "Imperial", which have just returned from roost training, are being protected by four cruisers and eight destroyers, and are undergoing final sea formation training. The audience for their formation performance was the head of state, Arkado Rudolph, who was standing on the Imperial.

And just a few dozen meters below Akado's feet, a mechanic was adjusting a machine. Beside him, two sailors in navy uniforms were holding a notebook and recording in a slightly dim light: "Master , the air pressure here needs to be adjusted to 8 to be considered qualified, right?"

"Yes! That's right." The old mechanic nodded and tapped the pipe in front of him with a wrench: "This is very important, if it leaks, a fire may occur. Of course, the stop loss method is the same as yours in Hercules. The process on the transport ship is the same, close the hatches on both sides and fill with water.”

"This is similar to the position we used to serve on the Hercules transport ship." The young sailor said excitedly.

"Well! It can be said that it is exactly the same." The old technician nodded: "The head of state is really a shipbuilding wizard. The parts of such a large battleship can keep 60% of the parts on the Hercules transport ship in common use. This is simply a An industrial miracle."

The entire aircraft carrier is built to the specifications of the Hercules transport ship, and the equipment and parts used in many places are the same, which has allowed Germany to cultivate excellent seamen for at least ten years without knowing it. These crew members are familiar with their positions, and they sometimes wake up without even remembering that they were on an aircraft carrier, because nothing seems to have changed around them.

Of course, nothing has changed. After all, this is an aircraft carrier. There are huge hangars here, dozens of the most advanced fighter jets of this era, as well as dangerous ammunition depots, fuel tanks...more The difference is that,

The boat is bigger, has more cabins, a different ride, a different schedule.

Moreover, as the 840 crew members of the ship, they have to mix with a full 100 anti-aircraft artillery shooters, as well as 110 pilots, 490 ground staff, and 19 aviation combat commanders. The service on the God transport ship is not the same.

On the bridge, Arkado put down the telescope in his hand and withdrew his gaze from the sea. Just now, he saw the destroyer leading the fleet not far away. The entire fleet seemed to be heavily guarded.

"My head of state. The Second Fleet has been assembled. According to your order, we will rush to Wilhelmshaven to join the First Fleet on the High Seas to form the High Seas Fleet in the true sense of the Empire." Vice Admiral Gunther Lütjens, the commander of the Second Fleet, introduced.

Akado smiled and glanced back at Lütjens, then pointed to the command room: "This warship is completely different from the warships you commanded in the past in terms of combat effectiveness and methods. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"Colonel Duane of Naval Aviation demonstrated to me the entire attack process of an aircraft carrier. My head of state, I think that once this combat mode is launched in the future, the future naval battle will be completed in the duel of Naval Aviation." Lutjens replied. road.

Arkado still has a good impression of the commander of the German naval surface ship who sank with the battleship Basemarck in another time and space. At least as a soldier, his loyalty and bravery are beyond doubt. In addition, when Akado studied the history of naval battles in World War II in his previous life, this person had put forward correct suggestions several times, and he should be considered a strategic talent.

Therefore, in the navy, in addition to Rader, who was the first to join him, and Dönitz, whom he single-handedly promoted and supported, this Lütjens became one of his most important commanders, and Arkado's novel tactics, And the determination to strengthen the navy made this Lütjens feel like he had found a confidant.

Therefore, the two hit it off, and soon they trusted each other, and the matter of forming the Second Fleet of the High Seas Fleet fell on Lütjens. This general lived up to expectations and trained a fleet that looked very elite in the shortest possible time.

However, Arcador also knew that the navy itself did not have the courage to fight to the death. Although the training is sufficient, in the face of the glorious British Royal Navy, the German Navy has always been a heroic level from its birth to the present: it was hard to summon the courage to challenge the British Royal Navy, but in the end it was only exchanged for one. Operation Rainbow.

Of course, the two aircraft carriers have also undergone great improvements. The biggest improvement is that the two aircraft carriers are equipped with a new type of naval detection radar. The effective distance has reached 35 nautical miles, and the airborne early warning may be further. This equipment has been tested to be very effective, and can provide the aircraft carrier with the last reconnaissance barrier. With this equipment, the aircraft carrier-based aircraft can take off calmly to face incoming enemy forces.

According to Accardo's vision, the aircraft carrier Basemarck will form the First Naval Fleet with the aircraft carrier Tirpitz, while the aircraft carrier Zeppelin will form the Second Naval Fleet with the aircraft carrier Reich. The two fleets will form the German High Seas Fleet. , used against the Royal Navy's Home Fleet. The two aircraft carriers that were launched later formed the Third Fleet, which was separated as a guerrilla fleet to "harass" the British Navy.

Under Accardo's attention, the development of German electronic equipment has always been at the world's advanced level, and technologies such as radar, sonar, radio, and infrared have made great progress. Twenty-one radar stations have been deployed in Germany. These radar stations, 10 88mm high-caliber gun battalions and 4 fw-190d fighter squadrons form an air defense network in key industrial areas.

The fleet sailed around the port, adjusted its course slightly, and then began to sail to the sea in the distance. The barge that Akado was riding on was already leaning on the edge of the port. Not far away, two tall hulls The assembly is being carried out, and it seems that the two warships should be about the same size as the aircraft carrier that just left the military port of Kiel.

"Long live the Führer!" As soon as Accardo got ashore, he saw Vice Admiral Dönitz waiting on the shore. This time Arcador visited Kiel Naval Port, on the one hand to preside over the ceremony for the formation of the Second Fleet, and on the other hand to cheer up the sluggish German naval surface ships - of course, the most important point is to appease Denny Ci, asked him to temporarily restrain the bellicose behavior of some submarine forces.

In the debriefing of the SS spies, Arcador knew that Dönitz had dispatched his wolves more than once to track and simulate attacks on British merchant ships. The dangerous move has begun to alarm the British Navy, and Arcador fears that the provocation will have an impact on his plans to delay the outbreak of war.

"Dönitz." Arkado patted the other party's shoulder with a proud smile on his face: "You didn't let me down! The submarine force has been reborn, and I know you can fight at any time! I know!"

"My Führer." Dönitz wore a very eye-catching leather trench coat over his black naval officer's dress. He saluted a standard German salute before answering: "The submarine force can go into battle at any time. If you give an order, the UK will be sunk by more than 5 transport ships before tonight."

"I believe in your combat capability." Akado nodded and said, "But what we need is time! A lot of time! Once necessary, I will immediately order you to implement our plan to destroy the British sea supply line in one go. of."

Dönitz was obviously in a hurry: "With all due respect, I firmly believe that our number of submarines is still at the operational level, and we can easily kill the British sea supply line. Britain will withdraw from the war in a few months, I promise."

"Dönitz. You know me. I only do what I'm sure of! I've postponed the war against Poland until mid-September in order to give the navy more certainty. So please make sure you wait until 1938, so I can Complete the war preparations." Arkado thought for a while and said, "I don't want to lose this war."

"My Führer! I understand your concerns. I will fully support you until the end of time." Dönitz stood at attention and said, "I will carry out the order prohibiting fire attacks on British ships to the end, please don't worry."

Akado thought for a while, then walked to the car that was parked not far away, and said to Dönitz who was following him: "Because the intelligence still relies on submarines to find and confirm, so I don't plan to let All your submarines have been withdrawn, but you must restrain your subordinates! Don't cause trouble for the Empire. If necessary, I will immediately notify you to open fire! At least in the Atlantic Ocean, the German Navy must have its own sense of presence."

"No problem!" Dönitz smiled and helped Akado to open the car door, protected Akado to get into the car, and then continued to answer: "According to the terms you negotiated with me, I will help you take care of it. Good German Navy! Bring victory to the German people."

"Long live the Great Deutschland!" Arcador said through the window.

"Long live the Führer, Arkado Rudolph!" Dönitz answered straightly.
