Chapter 65 Around the Earth

War is an art. From a certain perspective, generals often have a certain degree of artistic rest. For example, in German military academies, music is a course that officers must master. Therefore, if compared with artistic cultivation, then French and German generals must be in the forefront.

Tang Yunyang also has a certain artistic cultivation, especially when he sees him, he whistles, and the sound is really...! Of course, compared to his musical cultivation, General Manstein is much better than him. Even Rommel's artistic cultivation is not bad, at least much better than someone like him who can only whistle.

But for some reason, Manstein's plan can always be approved by Tang Yunyang, especially such a risky plan!

The sea breeze on the Atlantic Ocean is much lower than the sea temperatures in the South Ocean and the Red Sea at that time, although it is now close to May 1919.

After successfully attacking Australia, the "Ghost Captain" led three aircraft carrier attack clusters to form the "Ghost Special Mixed Fleet". This fleet includes three aircraft carriers, 5 warships, 6 simple aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and attack submarines. The best part is that in order to install enough prisoners, Earl Lukner specially brought a luxury cruise ship this time to meet the living needs of prisoners of war.

Such a medium-sized and powerful fleet immediately stepped away after the fighter jets of the Chinese Federation and the Royal German Flying Team gained air supremacy in the waters near Australia. With the help of the long-range warning provided by the "Hawkeye" iii" and "Apple" reconnaissance and attack rotorcraft, they easily bypassed the Cape of Good Hope and entered the Atlantic Ocean.

The attack capabilities of 500 aircraft and 5 new battleships are enough to blow their targets into ruins.

When entering the Atlantic Ocean, the sea storm was heard in the nose of Count Lukner, and there was a comfortable and familiar smell. When he arrived at his place, everything was naturally Lukner's method.

As the fleet sailed, more and more guests were on simple aircraft carriers that used to capture ships. Not only were there "guests" from ships from various countries, but there were also pilots who accidentally entered the reconnaissance circle of "Hawkeye iii" and were forced to be invited by "Flying on the Sea".

Such a long-distance attack can be completely silent, probably only Earl Lukner, known as the "Ghost Captain". Especially today, he still has a large number of "Hawkeye iii" and translucent "Apple Reconnaissance/Attack Planes" that can conduct long-range reconnaissance at any time. As for under the sea, the Zylon-class long-range attack command boat leads 10 Panlong-class ocean-going attacks, patrol submarines, and 5 Yinglong-class high-speed reconnaissance/Attack Submarines.

Such a large number of military forces could not have been concealed from the observations of colonial governments of various coastal countries, and could easily pass through such a long distance of difficulties.

However, the "Hawkeye iii Reconnaissance/Command" airships and the Apple aircraft on board can provide the fleet with a warning of thousands of kilometers. Hundreds of airships provide sufficient supplies to the fleet, all of which are tasks that other countries in the world are completely incapable of completing.

After all, this is a country without "satellites".

Even if there is one, I am afraid that only the number of rocket application experts who have already begun by the Chinese Federation, conducting sounding and rocket planting experiments conducted by rocket application experts dug from Germany. Although the great German Von Braun (rocket expert) was only 7 years old at this time, this did not prevent rocket experiments in the Chinese Federation and Science City. At the same time, the radar and other detection rituals in the "Sky Eye" plan designated by Tang Yunyang were also beginning.

Some people say that time travelers cannot do anything, how. But we have to say that if one hundred years of experience has increased, its foresight is definitely "real" and there is no doubt about it!

In this long-range attack mission that bypassed almost half of the earth, due to the advanced logistical support methods and the fact that the coasts are mostly British colonies, even if a little clue is found, they will not be stupid enough to tell the French.

This is what is called an allies. To put it bluntly, it is just a matter of interests!

"It is only if the superior's courage and Manstein's head can such a bold plan appear. Especially, without the super-long-distance supply capabilities of the Chinese Federation, this battle will be completely impossible to succeed!"

Looking at the turbulent Atlantic Ocean, Lukner stroked his yellow beard, and there was no need to say the satisfaction in his heart. His past adventures made him understand that no matter anything, the greater the danger, the richer the gains will be.

"The Chinese Federation will win. If there was an emperor like a chief in Germany back then..."

As a soldier, Lukner has been infected by the habit of strictly separating military and political affairs of the Chinese Federation. Therefore, in the above thinking, he did not participate in political considerations. Like most German soldiers, in his heart, Germany's failure in World War I was not due to the military's combat problems.

The only thing that can be said is "His Majesty William II was blind and misjudged the ungrateful wolf of the Russian Bolsheviks. If it weren't for the rebellion they instigated... Look at what they did! Germany helped Lenin, they instigated the rebellion of German sailors. The Chinese Federation helped Russia, and they used the Third International to attack the commander. This is really a group of unprincipled guys!"

As we all know, as a traditional German, Lukner attaches great importance to principles. This is a bit like the moral code of "a gentleman does not do anything!" advocated by our Confucianism. Therefore, for the Red Russian government, no one will like this group of treacherous people, whether in the West or the Chinese Federation with a population of 400 million!

This is why the "war on terror" of the Chinese Federation can be relatively supported by countries around the world. About no country wants a group of people who are doing open fire and stalking robbers under the banner of "socialism" to appear in their own country.

As for the goal of this long-range combat, it is not the so-called "European Joint Fleet" anchored in the Mediterranean. You can imagine that if the narrow Mediterranean is locked up by the gates of Gibraltar, can the fleet of the "New Eight-Nation Alliance" still be fully supplied?

This is a problem. If transported by land, most of the materials must be transported from France to Italy and then shipped to the island of Maltese where the fleet is located. At this time, whether the war is going on is not a question, and whether it is possible to eat or not is a question.

In addition, which one of Gibraltar or the so-called "European Combined Fleet" is more valued by the British? So Lukner appeared there just to scare people, but it was hard for the other party to imagine a surprise soldier.

"According to reconnaissance, a cargo ship is approaching us 100 kilometers away. According to its course and speed, the contact time is estimated..."

This kind of telegram is one of the most information that Count Lukner received during this most scheduled raid in world history. Relatively speaking, the order he issued below is also one of the most issued orders in this ocean raid.

"Please record that the patrol fleet's amphibious assault ship, flying a fighter squad, and one attack aircraft squad. Hawkeye airship performs a full-channel wireless voltage system. Sir, please invite our guests back!"

With Lukner's order, the "patrol fleet" composed of an "amphic assault ship" (simple aircraft carrier) and three fast cruisers and six destroyers took off immediately. The whistling sound of the aircraft's ejection and takeoff made the flights on the large attacking aircraft carriers so that they almost drooled.

These "air knights" flying in the blue sky have already been bored on large-scale attack aircraft carriers. The boring life on the aircraft carrier is almost sick! However, the pilots who took off were also very depressed. They took off and took off, and they had to be a little bit more than those pilots who were bored on the warships.

Unfortunately, although the wings and bullet cabins were filled with bullets, rockets, and torpedoes to express their " sincerity in treating guests", until this time, they had not met a more "tempered" warship or cargo ship.

Compared to being bored on the ship, I only have a little chatting about this boring action that is called "patrol flight" all day long.

The happiest one is the waiters on the luxury yacht that serves as captive ships. Although these captains and crew-class "guests" are not very beautiful to be invited, they are all willing to spend money. In addition to the wine, food and various services brought by the airships, life on the luxury yacht is very comfortable.

Basically, the casinos and movies there are enough to make the captives forget their "misfortunes" and regard this experience as a free trip.

"If such a business can be done, if Count Lukner is willing to do this several more times in the future, then our company can make a lot of money!"

This is the heartfelt words of the cruise manager. Due to the competition for airships, the revenue of the shipping business of the China Federation is relatively small. This time, the transportation captive business, which is paid by the state, not only helps the company make money, but also has higher incomes in "luxury activities" such as casinos, other than food and accommodation.
