At the beginning of the war, the German Navy's submarine forces have always been a headache for China! These wolves hiding under the sea pose a huge threat to the Chinese navy and merchant ships! The German Navy cannot be with the Chinese navy on the surface warships on the water.

In comparison, submarines have become their key ace force to develop! Before the war began, the German Navy already had more than 300 submarines, and most of these submarines were ocean-going submarines!

At first, the Chinese Navy's transport fleet and merchant ships suffered heavy losses under the attack of the German Navy's submarines, and had to send a large number of destroyers and frigates to escort the transport fleet and merchant ships. However, as the Chinese Navy invested in the Atlantic Ocean.

After more and more anti-submarine-class destroyers and Erhai-class frigates, the German Navy's submarine forces were suppressed! More and more submarines were found before attacking and then sunk,

The number of Chinese merchant ships sunk by German submarines has also begun to decrease dramatically!

Later, China deployed a large number of anti-submarine patrol aircraft on islands on the Atlantic Ocean, and cooperated with anti-submarine warships on the water to encircle the German Navy's submarine forces! After several months of efforts, the German Navy's submarine forces were hit.

In addition, at the request of the Navy, the Air Force carried out intensive bombings on several major submarine manufacturers of the German Navy, further hitting the strength of the German Navy's submarine force.

By May 1919, there were less than twenty German submarines operating in the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea! In contrast, the Chinese Navy's submarine troops were active in the North Sea, attacking German warships and merchant ships, forming a coastline against Germany.

The German Navy lacks anti-submarine warships, and its submarine forces defending the Chinese Navy are even less powerful!

After the Chinese Navy's submarine discovered that the main force of the German Navy had left the port, it immediately reported it to the Second Fleet Command! The commander of the Second Fleet, General Gao Yi, immediately ordered the Second Fleet to prepare for combat! At this time, the main force of the Second Fleet gathered in northern Britain.

The main purpose of the Atlantic Ocean is to block the German Navy's road to the Atlantic Ocean! The German Navy's high seas fleet will eventually lead to encounters on the sea!

After receiving support from five aircraft carrier battle groups composed of "Five Yue Class" aircraft carriers sent from the local fleet, the strength of the Chinese Navy's Second Fleet increased greatly. The number of aircraft carriers increased to ten, and all ten aircraft carriers were "Five Yue"

Class aircraft carrier. In addition, the fleet also has a special mixed fleet composed of 6 Hanxin-class battleships. In terms of overall strength, the Second Fleet has become the three major fleets of the Chinese Navy as the most powerful fleet.

! Although the German Navy has ten Hohenzollern-class aircraft carriers and five Prussian-class aircraft carriers, the battleship also has five Revenge-class battleships and a Bavarian-class battleship, which is powerful. However, the strength of the Navy

It does not depend entirely on the warship. No matter how good the warship is, it needs to be manipulated. In terms of the quality of soldiers, the Chinese Navy is far ahead of the German Navy! Although the British Navy and the German Navy are united,

This aspect cannot be compared with the Chinese Navy! Especially in terms of carrier-based aircraft, the gap between the two sides is even greater! Not to mention. The Second Fleet of the Chinese Navy is not fighting alone! The main force of the First Fleet of the Chinese Navy has already gone to

Atlantic Ocean! After the victory was laid on the Pacific battlefield, the First Fleet sent two special-mix fleets consisting of 'island-class' aircraft carriers and two 'Imperial-class' battleships and four 'Tang-class' battleships.

, support the decisive battle between the Second Fleet and the German Navy! However, this fleet has been kept secret, and the German Navy did not know that this fleet had arrived in the Atlantic Ocean! This directly gave the German Navy a complete advantage in the number of warships.

Lost!

General Gao Yi ordered the 23rd Special Mixed Fleet of the Chinese Navy to advance towards the North Sea and intercept the German Navy! At the same time, the 13th Special Mixed Fleet also followed closely behind the 23rd Special Mixed Fleet! At night, the ships of both sides

Even the carrier can't take off, this is the best battlefield for battleships! The Chinese Navy dispatched two "Imperial-class" battleships, 4 "Tang-class" battleships and 6 "Hanxin-class" battleships, which are far stronger than the German Navy's

Battleship formation! Except for the 5 "Revenge-class" battleships and 1 "Bavarian-class" battleship, the other battleships are basically old battleships. These battleships have not participated because of their low speed.

This battle is taken as!

At 4 a.m., the fleets of both sides encountered in the North Sea! The radars on the Chinese Navy's battleships first discovered the local fleet! The six "Hanxin-class" battleships were equipped with radars, which could still detect forty kilometers at night.

The enemy surface warships outside the world provide direction for artillery attacks! Of course, the radar performance at this time is not high and cannot provide accurate data for the main guns of the battleship. They can only provide an approximate position! However, even

That's true, it's much better than not seeing the other party at all!

At 4:15 a.m., six "Hanxin-class" battleships took the lead in firing and launched fierce shelling at the battleships that were far away twenty kilometers away!

When the orange-red flames shone in the muzzle and the shells fell, the German Navy discovered the problem. Admiral Franz von Hippel, commander of the German Navy's high seas fleet, ordered the battleship formation to fight, while ordering the aircraft carriers behind them.

Evacuate to avoid being attacked by Chinese Navy battleships. Although the aircraft carrier is powerful, its defense is simply vulnerable in front of the large-caliber naval guns of the battleships!

The visibility on the sea surface is very low. Although there are faint starlight in the sky, it is difficult to provide guidance for the fleet's shelling. More, it can only rely on experience. The Chinese Navy can accurately determine the general direction with the help of radar and then according to

The landing point of the shell and the flames from the enemy's muzzle are used to adjust the shooting angle, which makes the Chinese naval battleship formation take a great advantage!

Although the main guns carried by the German Navy's "Revenge-class" battleship and the "Bavarian-class" battleship are both 381mm main guns, which are much more powerful than the "Hanxin-class" battleships of the Chinese Navy. However, no matter how powerful the main gun is,

If you cannot hit the target, it is useless. On the other hand, although the main gun of the Chinese Navy's "Hanxin-class" battleship is 343 mm, if it hits the target, it will still allow the German Navy's "Revenge-class" battleship and the Bavaria.

Class' battleship is very uncomfortable!

Of course, the German Navy believed that if God wanted to hit the enemy's battleships more than ten kilometers away on a low visibility night, it would be fine unless God showed his spirit! However, this time, God did not seem to be on the side of the Germans!

At 4:36, the German Navy's Battleship Bismarck was hit and caught fire. The raging flames undoubtedly gave the Chinese Navy good guidance, which also made the Battleship Bismarck a shell magnet, the Chinese Navy's

Six "Hanxin-class" battleships opened fire against the battleship Bismarck! In just fifteen minutes, the "Bismar" battleship was shot 23 times! Although the "Bismar" battleship was thickly armored, 23 were

The 343mm shell still took the life of the battleship Bismarck! In the case of severe water inlet, the captain of the ship issued an order to abandon the ship. At 5:12 am, the battleship Bismarck

It sank into the seabed and became the first main ship to be sunk in this decisive battle!

The Chinese Navy's shelling strength was greatly shocked by the German Navy! However, they regarded the "Bismarck" as a coincidence and believed that it was just a little luck from the Chinese!

At 5:30 in the morning, the 13th special mixed fleet of the Chinese Navy also arrived at the battlefield! The addition of two "Imperial-class" battleships and four "Tang-class" battleships put the German Navy's battleship formation in a dilemma.

At 5:28, the German Navy's "Sax" battleship was sunk. At 5:54, the German Navy's "Tirpitz" battleship was sunk! Three super battleships were sunk, causing the German Navy to

The losses were heavy! At the same time, the 13th special mixed fleet of the Chinese Navy joined the battlefield, which also made the German Navy know that the situation had changed, and the main force of the Chinese Navy had arrived at the battlefield!

However, the German Navy has not given up its hope! It is dawn now, and the German Navy's 15 aircraft carriers are already busy. Ground crew members are refueling fuel for carrier-based aircraft, hanging bombs and fish, preparing for the attack.

!

At 5:40 am, the first German Navy dive bomber took off from the USS Prussia aircraft carrier, and then the German Navy carrier-based aircraft also took off one after another on the remaining 14 aircraft carriers. The German Navy's Prussia

USS Aircraft Carrier, each can carry 80 combat aircraft, each 'Hohenzoller-class' aircraft carrier, each can carry more than 90 aircraft! Admiral Franz von Hippel was in this operation

All its strength was put into operation, and a total of 360 dive bombers and 360 torpedo attack aircraft were dispatched, and as many as 300 fighters were escorted to these bombers! The target of these German carrier-based aircraft was not the Chinese Navy.

Battleships are the aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy! The German Navy also knows that if you want to win the naval battle, you must first sink the aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy. As for the battleships of the Chinese Navy, you can wait until later to clean up! However, the German Navy

When the carrier-based aircraft took off, the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft troops also took off! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
