Chapter 1652: Not reconciled (seeking a monthly ticket)
?? "It's over, everything is over! I am a sinner of the Royal Navy of the British Empire!" Admiral John Tovey burst into tears as he watched his own aircraft carrier being sunk continuously.
??The current British Empire is not as good as before. It took them a long time to accumulate these wealth. However, in this battle, they suffered heavy losses.
?? Admiral Andrew Cunningham also looked livid. No matter who it is, seeing their painstaking efforts come to naught, they will probably feel this way. As the deputy commander of the Atlantic Fleet of the British Empire Navy and the commander of the aircraft carrier formation, Admiral Andrew Cunningham felt as if he was bleeding from his heart at this moment.
?? "Boom! Boom!"
??A violent explosion sounded, another aircraft carrier was exploding, thick smoke billowed, and flames shot into the sky.
??The carrier-based fleet of the German Navy is still raging. While avoiding the intensive anti-aircraft firepower, they dropped bombs and torpedoes on those aircraft carriers, sinking those huge aircraft carriers. Further added losses to the Royal Navy.
?? "The British are finished too. I'm afraid there will be nothing left of their eight medium-sized aircraft carriers." Admiral Hasben Kimmel said.
?? Ernest? Admiral King nodded. In this battle, the U.S. Navy suffered heavy losses. Similarly, the British Navy also suffered heavy losses. It can be said that the joint navies of the two countries were also severely damaged by the German Navy's home fleet. Although the German Navy lost a capital ship formation, such a loss is also not small. But compared to their results, it is undoubtedly completely acceptable. The U.S. Navy lost nine large fleet carriers and the British Navy lost eight medium-sized carriers. This is completely tantamount to solving all the aircraft carrier formations of the two countries!
??Although, American and British shipyards are still working hard to build aircraft carriers. However, the construction of an aircraft carrier is time-consuming and laborious. Even if the speed is increased, the construction of a large aircraft carrier will take more than a year. This time, the British and American navies lost so much. If the navies of the two countries want to restore their eyesight again, I am afraid they will have to wait until the year of the monkey. Even, the German Navy would not give them this time at all. After the Germans won this naval battle, they will definitely continue to attack, take this opportunity to land in North America, defeat the United States and Britain in one fell swoop, and completely solve the problem.
??The massacre of the German Navy's carrier-based fleet continued until it was almost dark. At this time, their bombs and torpedoes were almost exhausted. Coupled with the fact that the sky was getting dark, they had to return as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to land on an aircraft carrier at night. If you don't pay attention, the plane may be destroyed.
??The German carrier-based aircraft pilots did not want to die in the accident. Even the tragic naval battle didn't kill them. If they died in an accident, it would be too unworthy.
??The carrier-based fleet of the German Navy left, leaving behind the devastated US and British fleets. The eight medium-sized aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy were also wiped out in this battle. Moreover, many cruisers and destroyers were lost. Although, the Royal Navy still has a large fleet of battleships. However, can these capital ships withstand the attack of the enemy's dense carrier-based aircraft group? That is obviously unlikely.
?? "We lost, this time we lost a complete defeat again!" Admiral Ernest Jin was a little dejected. Originally, he was also ambitious and wanted to lead the US and British fleets to fight a turnaround. However, I did not expect such a result in the end.
?? "General, this time we may not be able to explain to the country! Your Excellency has great expectations for our actions this time." Admiral Hasben Kimmel said.
?? These words immediately caused Admiral Ernest Jin even more headaches.
?? "Let General John Tovey and General Andrew Cunningham come over and discuss what to do!" Admiral Ernest King said.
?? "Okay, General."
?? Soon, Admiral John Tovey and Admiral Andrew Cunningham boarded the battleship 'Montana' in a traffic boat.
"Everyone, I have to admit that we made unforgivable mistakes in this naval battle. And, in the end, we missed the victory and lost a complete defeat. But it is useless to talk about these now. Now, what do we do?" Admiral Ernest King said.
"There is no doubt that the Germans have won this naval battle. It is impossible for us to regain the disadvantage. Under such circumstances, we had better escape at night. Otherwise, Once day breaks, the Germans will definitely launch a new round of attacks. Don't forget, our enemies include the German Navy's Atlantic Fleet and Mediterranean Fleet in addition to the German Navy's home fleet." John Tovey will say.
??General John Tovey was frightened. He knew that after this fiasco, the US and British fleets would no longer be able to compete with the German navy. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly better to flee back to the country. In that case, at least part of the strength can be preserved. At the same time, you can save your own life.
?? Of course, the last point is undoubtedly the most critical. As the admiral of the British Empire, Admiral John Tovey didn't want to really die in this naval battle. He can lead the fleet to go to sea to fight, but at critical moments, he still cares about his own life very much.
?? Ernest? General Jin frowned. Admiral John Tovey's intentions, of course, he is very clear. However, he was somewhat unwilling. If you escape now and escape the pursuit of the German navy, there is no problem at all. But in that case, the US and British fleets would lose completely this time.
"Even if we can safely withdraw to the country, what's the use of that? After the Germans win, they will also launch an attack on our homeland. At that time, we will not be able to escape either." Hasben Jinmei Admiral Er said.
?? "Then what should we do? We can't fight the Germans, right? Even if we fight the Germans, do we still have the capital to fight the Germans?" Admiral John Tovey said.
?? "We still have four light aircraft carriers and 16 capital ships. Our strength is still very strong!" Admiral Ernest King said through gritted teeth.
?? Indeed, with 4 light aircraft carriers and 16 world-class capital ships, this is already a very powerful maritime force.
