Chapter 1488： Turning point

Chapter 1488

"General, what shall we do?!" an officer asked with some excitement.

"Wait, let's be quiet." Happiness came so suddenly that Earl Spey also felt a little overwhelmed. The Allied fleets had a very good grasp of their time. Their fleets had just converged, so they moved ahead as the sky was still barely possible. Launched an offensive, and indeed made the Allied fleet overwhelmed, and its own fleet also paid a certain price, but now, it seems that everything is over?

How could it be that easy! You know, although the Spey Fleet was actually the first fleet to be bombed on a large scale, he was aware of the limitations of the fighter force on the bomber force while seeing the power of the aviation force. God knows how many fighter jets did this wave of British and French fleets dare to do? After some battles, the ammunition in my fleet only lasted for half an hour. If the bombers were not powerful enough to kill them, would they send them? Or send it? !

"Keep your distance, our crisis has not passed, and the effect of air strikes is hard to say." Earl Spey thought for a while and said. At this time, seeing the dawn approaching, his choice was more conservative, and he did not dare to sell too much. The performance of the British this time surprised him a little!

At the same time, the British and French fleets also received news of the German bomber attack!

"A large number of aircraft groups were found in the northeast, and their number is at least 120. Most of them are bombers. They are unstoppable like a flood. We can't stop all the aircraft!" A telegram was sent to Sir Fisher, asking him to His face sank!

"Today, it seems that the God of Destiny is not on our side." Sir Fisher sighed. He had paid a huge price and had bitten the German fleet. If he was given half an hour, he could at least Catch the last two slow battleships in the Allied fleet. In this case, it can be considered as an explanation, but now? What's the situation? It doesn't count if the meat that reaches your mouth is about to fly, you have to face a large number of German bombers in a narrow strait! This joke is not fun!

"What to do?" Sir Fisher was a little undecided for a while, and wanted to continue fighting? To be honest, without the guts, there are hundreds of planes, even if this wave of bombers is only 80, which means that 80 torpedoes and blockbuster bombs, on average, each super fearless can spread more than 10 bombs and torpedoes. .... Of course, the British Air Force will not make the navy brothers so miserable, but this is only the first wave!

To be honest, the current Sir Fisher really intends to leave, but at present the entire Allied fleet is blocked in the strait. He wants to go directly from the south and has to face the remaining 4 ultra-daunted and 2 quasi-daunted ships of the Allied fleet. , And if you retreat from the north, let’s not say that you have to take more wrong paths, and at the same time will be followed by the German fleet. This TM won’t work!

"Retreat. Even from the current point of view, we still need to walk for more than 2 hours to completely leave the attack range of the German bomber forces. The air force's cover is time limited. If we delay it a little longer, I am afraid that time will not be enough. "

"Moreover, even if we can kill the next two Quasi-Fearless ships, the significance is very limited. The main force of the Allied fleet still exists, and they can still come out to threaten us at any time. Therefore, there is no need to continue chasing after the fleet is seriously damaged." The words of Major General Husband strengthened Sir Fisher's determination. Now is definitely not the time to hold on, hurry up!

"Send a telegram to the French fleet, asking them to evacuate immediately, and arrange for some destroyers to be in charge of the queen!" Sir Fisher ordered. Subsequently, the flagship of the British fleet, the Iron Duke, turned first, and then the other three super fearless. After receiving the order, the French fleet did not hold on to its own opinions, because the sword of Damocles hanging high in the sky may fall at any time. , If you don't go, you really can't go!

The Allied fleet began to turn, and in order to prevent the Spey fleet from killing over, they also began to release a smoke screen, and the destroyers formed a blockade behind the entire fleet. More than 20 destroyers and torpedo boats were responsible under the leadership of several former dreadnought warships. After the break.

"It's finally stable now!" Seeing this situation, Earl Spey finally took a sigh of relief. The current situation is that he can finally return to Constantinople with most of the fleet safely! But at this time, Earl Spey had already begun to figure out whether to catch up with him!

When the situation on the sea changed, the air forces of the two sides had already collided in the airspace near the strait. This time, the British sent almost all their elites to save the Allied fleet, but the Germans? For the same reason, they are all talented people!

Led by the J-3 fighters of the two squadrons, the entire fleet rushed up first, and they were greeted by the Allied DH4, Newport and Albatros fighters!

"Don't worry about the fighters, attack their bombers!" After all, it is the old dough stick from the Western Front. The first target of the British is the bomber group, and the second target is the bomber group! The third target is the bomber group! The British rushed from all directions, and the roar of the machine gun instantly resounded across the battlefield! The seaplanes belonging to the fleet were not idle. They started to take off, and then released smoke screens around the British and French fleets. An air attack against the Allied fleet kicked off The defense level of the British was better than the Russians. Much higher. "The third bomber squadron of the Lancer bomber squadron, which entered the position first, this time, the squadron dispatched a total of 12 bombers, but the current situation made them feel a little trapped. This is in the strait. Although the sea is small, But the sea breeze is not strong, so it means that the smoke screen will dissipate very slowly. There is a dark area below, and the bomber troops really can’t attack effectively. If it is on a wide sea, the situation is different. If you go around, you can always find a place to start.

The British fighters are also very unique in their defenses. After being smashed in front of the box formation of German bombers, the British finally learned to be clever. Some of them were hanging on the target far away. Behind you, wait for the German bombers to descend and attack when they are ready to drop bombs or release torpedoes, and the purpose of the offense is no longer to destroy the enemy aircraft, as long as you can force you to drop bombs or torpedoes.

However, this method only temporarily relieved the pressure of the British. When more bombers arrived, the British would finally face the iron fist of the German bomber group!
