Jagged Germany
Chapter 785: Royal Air Force (seeking monthly ticket)
"Airplanes! We need airplanes to contain the powerful air power of the Germans. Otherwise, we will have no way to persist here. The daily air strikes of the Germans will bring us unimaginable losses!" Admiral Hamilton was angry roared.
Although, Churchill had promised him that the Air Force would fully support the Army in the Canterbury battle. However, the fighting has already started for three days. The air force's plane didn't even see a shadow. On the contrary, the British Army suffered heavy losses in the daily air strikes of the German army. If this continues, I'm afraid it won't be long before the morale of the troops will drop directly to the bottom. At that time, how can we fight the Germans!
"Your Excellency, the Air Force guys are not afraid, right? They lost a lot in the air battles with the Germans in France before. The combat effectiveness of the German planes is very terrifying!" Admiral Haig said .
"No matter what, the Air Force must take off to fight the Germans. If we are constantly strafed and bombed by the Germans like this, we will have no way to fight this battle!" Admiral Hamilton said with a dark face.
The guns of the battleships of the German Navy have put them under tremendous pressure. The planes of the German Army Air Force went back and forth three or four times a day, constantly dropping bombs on British Army positions or cities, further causing greater losses to the British Army. This made Admiral Hamilton almost furious.
The other British generals had no choice but to say nothing more. The German army's advance speed is not fast every day, but their naval guns and aircraft are constantly causing losses to the British army. This is like watching the British army continue to bleed slowly after a knife was cut in the blood vessel of the British army. If this continues, I am afraid that the Germans will not come to fight, they will all bleed to death by themselves. In this battle, the British army no longer had the slightest chance of winning.
London, RAF Command. Due to the development of the war situation, the Royal Air Force was established a little earlier than in another time and space. The Chief of Air Staff is now fully responsible for all affairs of the Royal Air Force, and is responsible only to the Prime Minister.
The current strength of the Royal Air Force is also stronger than that of another time and space. Fierce battles have resulted in a blowout development of science and technology. However, the German Army Air Force and Naval Air Force that the Royal Air Force needs to face now are much stronger than in another time and space.
"Your Excellency the Chief of Staff, Your Excellency the Prime Minister just called and asked us to immediately send planes to reinforce the battle in Canterbury! They are about to be tossed and collapsed by the German planes." A major general reported to Admiral Trenchard.
"The army's idiots, they are equipped with so many anti-aircraft weapons, are they all fancy but useless?" Royal Air Force Chief of Staff General Trenchard said with some dissatisfaction.
The continuous development of air power has also accelerated the replacement of air defense weapons. In order to fight against the powerful German air power, the British Army is also equipped with a lot of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns. However, no matter how powerful the ground air defense weapons are, it is undoubtedly very difficult to strike air targets without precision-guided weapons.
"Who knows!" The major general shrugged helplessly.
"It seems that we can't escape! This is the third time the Prime Minister has asked us to go to war. If we don't express it again, I will be the chief of staff of the Air Force." Admiral Trenchard was quite a bit have no choice.
When the British mainland was attacked, it was not that he wanted to be a turtle, but that the Royal Navy seemed too weak compared to the powerful German air power. The fighter jets they used before have proved to be no match for German fighter jets at all. Now their latest fighter is the 'Camel' fighter that has just been mass-produced. The maximum speed of this fighter can reach 187 kilometers per hour, which is only a little slower than the F2 fighter equipped by the German Army Air Force. In terms of other performance, although it is also a bit worse. But anyway, if they match up again, they won't be shot down without even being able to fight back.
It's just that the number of advanced "Camel" fighter jets is very limited, and the entire Royal Air Force is only equipped with more than two hundred fighters. The monthly output is only a hundred or so. Admiral Trenchard regarded these precious planes as treasures.
Subject to the blockade of the German navy, the domestic resources of the United Kingdom are no longer able to support the development of military industry. Although they organized a lot of merchant ships and transport ships to transport supplies from North America to the UK. However, under the blockade of the German Navy, it is difficult for these merchant ships and transport ships to reach the British mainland, and nine out of ten will be sunk or captured by the German Navy. It can be said that it is completely delivering food to the Germans.
However, the British government is unwilling to give up this transportation route. Because in this case, they can get some supplies anyway. If you give up, you really won't get any supplies.
The only thing the British government can do is to wait for all their transport ships and merchant ships to be lost. In that case, there is no way.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, but our strength is too weak. If we take the risk to fight the Germans, our planes will be lost soon. By then, the skies of the British mainland will be completely reduced to nothing." In the territory of the Germans, there are no more Royal Air Force planes." The major general sighed.
"There's no way around it! If we don't move out, the guys in the army will soon be unable to hold on. At that time, maybe they will blame us for the failure. At that time, we will I really will become a scapegoat, and I can't tell the pain." Admiral Trenchard's face was full of helplessness.
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, our 'Camel' fighters are no worse than the Germans. It's just that the number is too small. Wait a few more months, we will add a few hundred more fighters, and we will have enough strength to compete with Germany. People have resisted. At that time, maybe we can defeat the Germans in the British sky and protect our sky." The major general persuaded.
Admiral Trenchard shook his head: "The Germans will not give us so much time. After a few months, the army may have been defeated. By then, the entire British Isles will be under the control of the Germans. Will the RAF continue to exist? That's clearly impossible."
Admiral Trenchard is obviously not very optimistic about the next battle situation.
