Imperial Overlord

"I didn't ask you to go to the British fleet for a decisive battle! Why are you resisting so much?" Li Le said helplessly, looking at Raidel and the other admirals. .

He pointed to the map at sea, and roughly drew a route: "As long as the secrecy work is done well, the operation starts at night, and the fleet reaches the Denmark Strait, there will be no danger of being discovered by the enemy!"

Having said that, he raised his head and looked at Raedl: "Didn't your navy also have a calculation, admit that this assumption is true?"

"Yes, my Yuan, when the fleet moves to the Denmark Strait, we will be spotted by the British submarines and cruiser patrols... This is a certain thing." Redell admitted in a depressed manner.

He has emphasized this issue countless times. It is precisely because the fleet has not yet entered the North Sea, it will be discovered by the British patrol network, so he believes that the plan to surprise the Atlantic route will not work at all.

As long as the British saw the movement of the German fleet, they would dispatch battleships and aircraft carriers to intercept the German fleet near the North Sea.

At that time, it will be a head-to-head battle at sea. In the end, the German fleet will suffer losses and be forced to retreat to the land...

In the best case, the second battle of Jutland was fought, Germany took advantage of the tactics, but lost completely strategically.

In a worse situation, it would be even more desperate—Germany would lose the "presence fleet" it had managed to accumulate, and lose any possibility of continuing to fight at sea...

Whether it was a good outcome or a bad outcome, as the marshal of the German Navy, as the commander-in-chief of the navy, Raedl was unwilling to choose.

"Since our fleet can enter the wider North Sea, then this plan has been established!" Li Le heard Rader's affirmation, and said his estimate with a smile.

When Raedl heard Yuan's optimistic speculation, the expression on his face became even more depressed - he is the admiral, okay? Was his speculation better than an infantryman who had only been a corporal?

He had a hunch that the German fleet would be surrounded by the enemy fleet, and even lost most of the warships, but Yuan didn't believe his explanation and firmly believed that the fleet would break through in the North Sea...

"Whether the enemy's fleet is chasing us or searching for us, it relies on radar and aircraft!" Li Le looked at Rader and the admirals below, and started talking about his basis.

While speaking, Yuan pointed to the map in front of him, and drew a rough radius on it with his hand: "The detection range of the radar is 40 kilometers, and it is not stable."

After saying this, Lord Yuan walked in front of Raidel and continued: "Just relying on radar to maintain contact with our fleet, we must approach within a range of 40 kilometers!"

"Our warships have all been refitted and equipped with radars! When they can spot us, we have already spotted them!" When Li Le said this, he slapped his hand on Marshal Redel's desk.

Rader frowned when he heard Li Le slap on the table, but he knew that what Yuan said was correct, at least technically flawless.

Compared with the Luftwaffe, the German Navy was the earliest supporter of radar systems. Therefore, compared with Goering, Raeder's understanding of radar technology should be deeper - but only "some".

The German Navy was the first military service to be equipped with radar technology in the German three armies. When radar was installed on the German-class pocket battleship, it was also used as a secret weapon and kept secret for a long time.

Because of this, when Li Le refitted the German warships and equipped them with radars, Rader was very happy—at least in terms of searching and fighting guerrillas, the radars of the German Navy were effective in actual combat.

The Scharnhorst blasted the cruiser, relying on the superb command of Lütjens, as well as its own radar detection, to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the enemy, and escaped all the way to the port of Brest.

"Before, because the cruisers had high altitude, our warships could only endure the tracking and stalking of these warships!" Li Le looked at Raidl and said his plan: "But now, you have the ability to expel these cruisers. Now, what are you afraid of leaking?"

In fact, Li Le's tactics are not very advanced. Most of the ships in his fleet have radar, and carrier-based aircraft can patrol farther, so if the opponent wants to track this fleet, they must enter the strike range of German carrier-based aircraft.

Li Le trusts his naval aviation very much. The combination of Stuka and Butcher Bird can certainly handle any target from the air in the Atlantic Ocean!

Even if it is a Spitfire fighter jet taking off from the British mainland, facing the German f-19ot fighter jet, it does not have the slightest advantage to take it, right?

What's more, Li Le is certain that the British Navy at this stage only has outdated second-rate goods such as sea fighters and swordfish!

With radar and advanced carrier-based aircraft, the German fleet could easily eat enemy patrol planes and trailing destroyer cruisers that came to them.

As for those huge British battleships...Which one can catch up with the German fleet in Li Le's hands?

You must know that the battleships of the German Navy are all designed to fight guerrillas. All battleships, including aircraft carriers, can run at a height of more than 25 knots!

For the UK to want to intercept such a fleet, it is simply a dream! The big ship is not enough, can't stop it! The boat can catch up but beat it!

Like when Bismarck went to sea, the British did not have many choices. The most tragic thing is that the tactic of paralyzing Bismarck by relying on swordfish is no longer feasible!

This is Li Le's tactics, a set of tactics that are also guerrilla fighting, but very technical. Li Le will use the radar and carrier-based aircraft to cooperate to eat the cruiser patrol network and the reconnaissance aircraft that the other party uses as an eyeliner!

After taking down this reconnaissance network, Li Le's fleet would go west to the Atlantic to fish and hunt, sinking any merchant ships it saw.

Then, before the enemy is surrounded, find a gap and use the high ease to break through - as for the British carrier aircraft... in front of the f-19ot, it is not a threat at all!

However, this seemingly perfect tactic is actually based on Li Le's trust in carrier-based aircraft!

Master Yuan is someone who has traveled through the future seventy years later. Of course, his understanding of the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers is not comparable to that of Raidl and others.

So when Li Le was certain that his aircraft carrier could be one to ten, what Redel and others thought was not such a thing.

"Yuan! Your speculation is too absolute! The take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft will be affected by the wind and waves. Our fleet has been moving at a high speed. The combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier is not yet clear. It is completely based on the designated tactics of the aircraft carrier..." Redel did not need to think about it. Just listed a lot of reasons for objection.

As a naval marshal, as a naval commander-in-chief, it is impossible for him to accept that he would pile up all his wealth around a new technology weapon to fight a naval battle that he had never verified.

Even in Taranto, in the Mediterranean, the British used aircraft carriers, which could

It is the combat achievements it has achieved, and it is also quite limited!

On the German side, there is also the great record of Scharnhorst sinking the British aircraft carrier HMS Glory! That's why Raidl doesn't believe in any aircraft carrier determinism, he prefers to believe in the cannons on his own battleship!

As for why the battleship should be changed to an aircraft carrier, and why the battleship Zeppelin cares so much - it's all about fighting for an aviation quota for the navy.

Redel is willing to try new tactics, but he is still an old-school naval commander at heart. He was still a little unacceptable to let him give up the romance of a man with a big ship and a big gun.

Now Yuan wants to formulate a set of naval tactics revolving around the aircraft carrier, and even the safety of the fleet is pinned on an aircraft carrier, which Ryder can't bear.

"If you don't believe in the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier, then I will hand over the Zeppelin to Goering to command." Li Le looked at Raidl and said with a sneer.

After he finished speaking, without waiting for the admiral below to break free from the shock, he continued: "I even want the ships that **** the aircraft carrier!"

Hearing what Yuan said, Rader knew that Yuan was really determined to fight this naval battle. UU reading www. uukanshu.com Although the Navy is not ready, he has no reason to refuse.

Even Raedl himself knew that getting the Navy ready would have to wait until at least 1944 or later. But the naval battle could not be delayed until that time. Sooner or later, his navy would go to sea to fight against the mighty British navy.

Escape cannot change anything. Sending one battleship to take an adventure, or sending ten warships to take an adventure, this adventure must be taken!

As the Admiral of the Navy, Redel was even more worried that Yuan really lost the command of the Navy to the Air Force and handed it over to a group of Air Force commanders who didn't understand anything.

Compared with the veteran 6th Army, the navy has no confidence and stature, and can compete with the Yuan Chamber. The current navy relies entirely on Yuan's support for its own development, so confronting Yuan can only be thought about in the mind.

The 6th Army can use its huge heritage and noble relationship to bargain with Yuan, ignoring the decisions of the Supreme Command. But the navy can't, it's legal to go to the navy headquarters, but it has to be dispatched by the supreme command...

After all, I am not the 6th Army. Raedl sighed in his heart, and then had to make a compromise with Yuan: "My Yuan, your plan, the navy, will of course be carried out, but there is a lack of fuel and a careful plan, so we still need some time!"

Seeing that it was not good, Raedl played the delay deck, hoping to buy some more time for the Navy. Of course Li Le could see it, so he also cooperated and gave his deadline: "Mid-November! The navy must participate in the battle! This is what you must do!"
