Chapter 1128

In one second, remember [?], To provide you with wonderful novel reading.

As an existential Navy, German maritime forces have been accumulating their own strength. They have been unknown for a long time, but they have not done nothing for such a long time. Perhaps since Germany landed in Britain, the aura of the German surface warship force has been covered by the German Navy submarine force, but this can not erase the high seas fleet of the German Navy which has been yearning for the ocean.

Silence does not mean giving up. For such a long time, the navy has seized every opportunity to become proficient in its ability to fight in the ocean. From the voyage to Australia to the reinforcement of gibraltarian, the German Navy finally mastered the essentials of ocean warfare. After the oil supply was in place, it sharpened its sword and went to the east coast of the United States.

Both the air force and navy have their own plans for attacking the east coast of the United States. The Navy took the lead by sending a pelagic wolf pack of 20 submarines to harass the east coast of the United States. However, due to the single arms and the lack of intelligence support, this fleet has played a very limited role and has not achieved amazing results.

The air force has proposed to use new long-range bombers to attack the United States, but the development of this new long-range bomber is not very smooth. As a civil project, the flight test results of six large airliners are good, but some indicators can not meet the requirements of the military all the time. The high level of the German air force still has little confidence in the bombing mission without fighter escort, so the development progress has slowed down a little.

This time the German Navy aircraft carrier attacked the fleet, which was also the top secret operation within the Navy. Even when they set sail, they didn't inform the top commander of the fleet. Even the captain didn't know that they were going to attack the east coast of the United States this time.

Such secrecy is mainly due to the fact that there are spies near the German ports, and the intelligence of the German Navy's departure from the port will soon be known by the United States. So the German fleet first attacked the Icelandic base to confuse the other side and prevent the United States from strengthening its guard on the east coast. Taking the aircraft carrier fleet to carry out large-scale destruction and engagement is a more efficient form of sea attack developed by the German Navy after enjoying the changes brought about by the aircraft carrier.

Soon, the first batch of 10 attack planes taken off by the German Navy achieved their success. A transport ship travelling from Canada to the United States was sunk, and then a US destroyer was sunk in the nearby waters. At this time, the US coastal defense command, which got the news, realized that something was wrong.

"Send a telegram to the Royal Navy patrol fleet to confirm the exact location of the German fleet after the attack on Iceland!" A U.S. Navy General on the map of the command center, looking at the damned sunken ship sign, loudly ordered: "German planes appear on the east coast of the United States... This is not good news in any case. Let nearby naval patrol ships confirm the number and style of German aircraft as much as possible! "

"The information is too vague. The sunken destroyer reported that it had been attacked by German aircraft. We haven't confirmed whether it was a single engine aircraft or a heavy bomber, so their radio lost contact." Another American general said in an anxious tone: "people in the combat Department speculate that it's the German aircraft carrier. After all, it's not easy for heavy bombers to sink the flexible destroyers directly."

"Hell! What if it's German bombers? I need to make sure it's the new German bombers! We only have 300 anti-aircraft guns on the east coast. If New York is attacked, those guys in Congress will dig a hole and bury us all. " The commander in chief of the east coast defense of the United States interrupted the other side and ordered in a stern tone: "take off all the planes that can fight. I need to ensure the absolute safety of the east coast. Give me a call to all the radar stations to find the exact location of those German planes! "

"Report! Destroyer July was shelled by German warships! They claim to have found the German fleet in the x17 antisubmarine patrol zone. " An officer rushed into the command center in a hurry and gave his message to the general in the command headquarters. For a moment, everyone was relieved. After all, it was not a German long-range bomber, so the problem could be solved.

"Send a telegram to the British and ask them to send out the fleet stationed in Canada to fight for the heavy damage to this German fleet." While mobilizing his own forces to drive out the German fleet, the US commander also ordered the radar system to remain vigilant to avoid being exploited by the Germans. For a moment, the whole east coast of the United States was mobilized. Various patrol planes and fighter planes flew across the sky. Many cruising ships were informed to avoid the German fleet.

"What's the matter? German fleet? On the east coast? " A transport ship's captain looked at the message he had just received, and looked at his men in tears and laughter: "sail westward, wait a day near Boston."

"Cough, but Captain, our ships are all in urgent need of British materials. When we stop sailing for one day, we will be forced to stop working there..." this transport ship is a British ship, and all the ships are British sailors. After hearing this decision, the crew member said reluctantly: "how can the German fleet appear in such a place? It's not the Americans who got it wrong, is it? "

"There's no time for us to confirm. It's said that the German fleet is nearby..." the captain didn't want to risk his life, so he insisted on his own order. A few minutes later, their ship adjusted its course and sailed toward the far east coast of the United States. Like this transport ship, countless fishing boats and patrol ships, transport ships and passenger ships are forced to change their course.

The east coast of the United States was in a mess because of the sudden emergence of the German fleet. At this time, lutjans was also shocked by the problems he encountered. He thought that the Americans would pay attention to him at least after sinking dozens of American ships. But he only sank four ships on his side, and the Americans made adjustments and responses. With more and more US reconnaissance aircraft in his airspace, he had to give up the interference to the east coast routes of the United States and make a turn to break away from the operational radius of US carrier based aircraft. Looking at the distant battle of German fighter planes driving American patrol planes, lutjans had no choice but to give the order to turn south again: "speed up the navigation to the south! son of a gun! The American forces deployed on the east coast are stronger than we expected. It seems that this time we are doomed to fail. " The Americans made a timely response, and began to send out a variety of aircraft to interfere with the operation of the German aircraft carrier fleet. Lutjans did not dare to fight with the shore based US Fighter fleet alone. He was more worried that the British fleet, whose position could not be confirmed now, would suddenly appear. So the German fleet did not love to fight, and fought and retreated, chose the safest south, leaving the dangerous waters. The main purpose of this battle was to show the strength of the German Navy and contain the US Navy. Try to contain the U.S. forces, and as much as possible to disrupt the rhythm of U.S. shipping routes. As far as the results are concerned, they have achieved part of their goals. It is a very wise choice to withdraw and leave the fight now. And just as lutjans fought and retreated, the headquarters on the east coast of the United States were frightened by the sudden appearance of the German fleet. The main force of their fleet is in the Pacific Ocean, and most of their fighter forces are also in the Pacific Ocean to maintain the suppression of Japanese forces. Don't underestimate the Japanese combat effectiveness. Even if they are at a disadvantage, they are still a strong opponent. In order to maintain their strategic advantage over Japan, the United States has to invest most of its combat power. Just now, the whole East Coast has almost put out all its strength. If the German fleet insists on not going, the Americans seem to have no decent means to deal with this damned fleet. The German fleet is beyond the operational radius of the US fighters, and if they want to defeat them, they can only rely on the British fleet. Unfortunately, the British fleet is still in the waters near Canada. It will take a lot of time to get here. Unfortunately, lutjans didn't know about this, so he was forced back by the fleet hundreds of kilometers away and the weak U.S. Army Air Force“ We can no longer defend the east coast with such a small number of aircraft. We need at least 300 combat aircraft. We need them now! " Looking at the report that he had just received that he had lost the trace of the German fleet, the relieved American commander said loudly, "the Germans will not come here only once! They're not short of gas now! " Even though it is clear that there will not be too many demonstrations like attacks on the German Navy, the United States still dare not bet on the absurd idea that "the Germans will not come again.". They need to ensure the absolute security of New York, Washington and other regions, so this is bound to involve some of the forces that will soon be invested in the Pacific. In fact, the Americans were affected by the March. They intercepted two flight brigades supporting the Pacific theater and deployed them on the east coast. The British fleet also moved south in a planned way to ensure the safety of the US Route to Canada. It took more than two hours for President Roosevelt to know about this small-scale battle after a meeting. The Americans only lost one destroyer, two transport ships and one large fishing boat. However, the attack forced the United States to pay attention to the Atlantic war and dispersed the combat power of the United States Navy. However, these lutjans did not know that this war was not a victory for him, but a hasty demonstration. He urgently hopes that he can fight back again and really fight a battle that severely damages the US Navy
