In the silent morning, there are flying seabirds everywhere in the harbor. If you want to see the most intense collision between human civilization and nature, take a look at the harbor: the shore is the most brilliant science and technology built up of steel and cement; But the ocean is as vast as nature's mother.
Tens of thousands of tons of steel support, hundreds of workers are crazy for the fastest ship building speed in human history. German shipyards have never been so prosperous. At the same time, two aircraft carriers with displacement of nearly 30000 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. People here have never seen such a huge fleet since the high seas fleet left the port.
Once again, in order to expand their living space, bravely face the waves of the vast sea, to become the master of the world, and to gain the dominant position, a new rising empire is using its immature tusks to launch a brave challenge against an old king.
Two fleet aircraft carriers "tilbitz" and "empire", which have just returned from training, are protected by four cruisers and eight destroyers, and are in the final sea formation training. And the audience they are performing in formation is the head of state akado, who is standing on the Empire? Rudolph.
Just a few meters below the foot of akado, a mechanic is adjusting a machine. Next to him, two sailors in Navy uniforms are holding notebooks and recording in a slightly dim light: "master, the air pressure here needs to be adjusted to 8 before it is qualified, isn't it?"
"Yes! That's right. " The old mechanic nodded and knocked on the pipe in front of him with a wrench: "it's very important here. If it leaks, there may be a fire. Of course, the stop loss method is the same as that of you on the Hercules carrier. Close the hatch on both sides and inject water. "
"It's similar to the position we used to serve on the Hercules carrier." The young sailor said excitedly.
"Yes! It can be as like as two peas. " The old technician nodded: "the Fuehrer is really a genius in shipbuilding. It's an industrial miracle that he can make the parts of such a large warship 60% common with those of Hercules transport ship."
The whole aircraft carrier is built with the specifications of Hercules transport ship, and the equipment and parts used in many places are the same, which makes Germany unconsciously cultivate excellent seafarers for at least ten years. These crew members are familiar with their posts. They sometimes wake up and don't even remember that they have served on the aircraft carrier, because it seems that everything around them has not changed.
Of course, nothing has changed. After all, this is an aircraft carrier. It has a huge hangar, dozens of the most advanced fighters in this era, dangerous ammunition depots and fuel tanks... The more difference is that the ship is bigger, has more cabins, different control feeling and different work and rest time.
Moreover, as 840 crew members, they have to mix with 100 antiaircraft artillery shooters, 110 pilots, 490 ground crew members and 19 air combat commanders, which is really different from the original service on the Hercules transport ship.
On the bridge, akado put down his telescope and took back his eyes from the sea. Just now, he saw the destroyers not far away from the fleet. The whole fleet seemed to be well guarded.
"My head of state. The second fleet has assembled. According to your order, we will rush to Port William and join the first fleet on the high seas to form the real high seas fleet of the Empire. " Gunther, the captain of the aircraft carrier Empire and the commander of the second fleet? Said lieutenant general lutjans.
Akado looked back at lutjans with a smile, and then pointed to the command room: "this warship is totally different from the warship you used to command in terms of combat effectiveness and mode. Is there anything wrong with it?"
"Captain Duane of the Naval Air Force has demonstrated to me the whole attack process of the 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 Naval Air Force duel." Replied lutjans.
Akkado is very fond of the German naval surface ship commander who sank with the battleship Bismarck 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 World War II naval warfare in his previous life, this man had put forward correct suggestions several times, which should be considered as a strategic talent.
Therefore, in the Navy, in addition to Randall, who was the first to take refuge in him, and Donitz, who was promoted and supported by him, this lutjans became a commander he valued most, and akado's novel tactics and determination to strengthen the Navy made lutjans feel like a confidant.
As a result, the two men soon fell in love with each other and trusted each other. It fell to lutjans to set up the second fleet of the Navy's high seas fleet. The general also lived up to expectations, with the shortest possible time to train a look very elite fleet.
However, akado also knows that the Navy itself does not have the courage to fight to the death. Despite adequate training, the German Navy has been at the level of heroism ever since its birth in the face of the British Royal Navy, which has made brilliant achievements in the war. It was not easy to summon up the courage to challenge the British Royal Navy at that time, but only got a rainbow operation in the end.
Of course, these two aircraft carriers have also made great improvements. The biggest improvement is that these two aircraft carriers are equipped with a new type of naval detection radar, with an effective range of 35 nautical miles, and the air warning may be further. This kind of equipment has been tested to be very effective and can provide the carrier with the last detection barrier. With this equipment, the carrier based aircraft can take off calmly to meet the incoming enemy. According to acardo's idea, the aircraft carrier Bismarck and the aircraft carrier tilbitz will form the first naval fleet, while the aircraft carrier Zeppelin and the aircraft carrier empire will form the second naval fleet. These two fleets will form the German high seas fleet to fight against the local fleet of the Royal Navy. And then the launch of the two aircraft carriers formed a third fleet, was independent as a guerrilla fleet harassing the British navy. With the attention of akkado, the development of electronic equipment in Germany has always been at the advanced level in the world, and radar, sonar, radio, infrared and other technologies have made great progress. Twenty one radar stations have been set up in Germany. These radar stations, together with 10 88mm caliber anti-aircraft gun battalions and four fw-190d fighter squadrons, form an air defense network in key industrial areas. The fleet sailed around the port, slightly adjusted its course, and began to sail to the distant sea. Akado's barge had already leaned on the edge of the port. Not far away, two tall ships were being assembled. It seems that these two warships should be about the same size as the aircraft carrier that just left Kiel“ Long live the Fuehrer As soon as akado came ashore, he saw lieutenant general Donitz waiting on the shore. Akado's visit to Kiel military port, on the one hand, is to preside over the ceremony for the formation of the second fleet, on the other hand, it is also to cheer up the depressed German naval surface warship forces - of course, the most important point is to appease Donitz and ask him to temporarily restrain the belligerent actions of some submarine forces. In the report of SS spy, akkado knew that Donitz had sent his wolf troops more than once to track and simulate attacks on British merchant ships. This kind of dangerous action has begun to arouse the vigilance of the British navy, and akkado worries that this kind of provocation will affect his plan to delay the outbreak of the war“ Donitz Akado patted each other on the shoulder, with a proud smile on his face: "you didn't let me down! Submarine force has been reborn, I know you can fight at any time! I know! "“ My head of state. " Donitz was wearing a very eye-catching leather windbreaker over his black navy uniform. He saluted a standard German salute, and then began to reply: "submarine troops can fight at any time. If you give an order, Britain will be sunk more than five transport ships before tonight."“ I believe in your ability to fight. " Akado nodded and said, "but we need time! A lot of time! As soon as necessary, I will order you to carry out our plan and destroy the British Maritime supply line at one go. " Donitz was obviously worried: "with all due respect, I firmly believe that with our number of submarines and combat level, we can easily strangle the British Maritime supply lines. Britain will withdraw from the war in a few months, I promise“ Donitz. You know me. I only do what I'm sure! In order to make the Navy more confident, I put off the war against Poland until mid September. So please wait for me until 1938 so that I can fully prepare for the war. " Akado thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to lose this war."“ My Fuehrer! I understand your concern. I will fully support you until the end of time. " Donitz stood at attention and said, "I will carry out the order of no fire on British ships. Please don't worry." After thinking about it, akado walked to his car not far away and said to Donitz, "because intelligence also depends on submarines to find and confirm, so I don't intend to withdraw all your submarines, but you must restrain your subordinates! Don't make trouble for the Empire. If necessary, I'll let you know immediately to fire! At least in the Atlantic, the German navy must have its own sense of presence. "“ No problem! " With a smile, Donitz helped akadora open the car door and helped akadora get into the car. Then he continued to reply, "according to the terms you and I agreed at the beginning, I will take care of the German Navy for you! Bring victory to the German people. "“ Long live the great Germany Akado said through the window“ Head of state akado? Long live Rudolph Donitz answered at attention.
