Chapter 2167 The Assembly of the High Seas Fleet Three

In addition to battleships and aircraft carriers, the High Seas Fleet also has a large number of auxiliary fleets. Although it is not as good as the British, it can also be proud of other countries in this era. On the south side of the port is the berth for light cruisers, where a total of 18 light cruisers of various types are deployed. In addition to the 2 light cruisers as the leader of the destroyer brigade, the remaining 16 light cruisers were divided into 4 light cruiser detachments. According to the battle plan, one of the light cruiser detachments was assigned to the aircraft carrier detachment, and the other was assigned to the command of Admiral Hipper The fast fleet, the other two light cruiser detachments were reserved for the main fleet.

The largest number of destroyers in the fleet are naturally those destroyers. For this final decisive battle, the German Navy has concentrated more than 80 destroyers of various types, and the organization of destroyers has also been improved. The original 4-ship formation is too small. After convenience, and this time, the smallest destroyer squadron has 6 destroyers, and 2 squadrons form a detachment. In addition to the normal 12 destroyers, the detachment will also have 1 large destroyer as the leader of the destroyer.

According to Ruprecht's plan, in the decisive battle in the near future, the German High Seas Fleet will dispatch a huge scale of more than 130 ships of various types! And the overall tonnage of the fleet will exceed 800,000 tons! And in terms of actual combat effectiveness, then the German fleet may be stronger than the large fleet! And if Earl Spey's fleet is included, the total tonnage of the fleet will exceed 1 million tons!

In addition to the huge surface ships, the German High Seas Fleet's underwater fleet and land-based fleet are equally powerful. Although it is not easy to ambush the main fleet with submarines in this era, it can even be said that it is not very visible, but the submarine cordon constructed still has some effect Yes, so, for future wars, the German High Seas Fleet has gradually transferred more than 80 submarines from the front line to perform tasks in the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea. They will undertake ambush, security and reconnaissance tasks.

In order to fight this unprecedented naval battle, the aviation power allocated to the German Navy has also reached the peak in history. More than 2,500 land-based aviation units and land-based aviation units belonging to the navy were densely deployed from the French mainland to the It extends east to Königsberg and then turns north, passing through Denmark, and extending to hundreds of bases in Norway. An invisible net covers the entire south and east of the North Sea and the eastern part of the Norwegian Sea.

The powerful German air power spreads its wings like an eagle. He perches on the mainland of the German Empire, and his wings stretching west and north protect the German High Seas Fleet. A fleet that dares to enter its combat radius is torn to pieces! When the Army of the German Empire reached its peak after annihilating the British Expeditionary Force, the Imperial Navy and Air Force also made their strongest voices to the world!

"Your Highness, where is our first strike target?" Admiral Scheer's voice rang in his ears just as Ruprecht was wandering in his thoughts in the steel forest-like fleet of the German High Seas Fleet.

"Just choose Kingston-upon-Hull, which is one of the most important industrial cities and ports in the east of England, and it is still within the cover of our land-based air force." Ruprecht said.

"In addition, let the air force give an early warning. Our main task is to destroy the British industrial and military production capacity, not to kill civilians." The crown prince added after thinking for a while.

"Follow me, Your Highness. Tonight, you will see our attack plan and target selection for the area," Scheer said.

"Very well, let's get ready to do it. I hope we can embark on the journey the day after tomorrow. This will be a brilliant start." Ruprecht nodded.

In a matter of minutes, the fate of an important British coastal city was sealed. Two days later, tens of thousands of tons of steel will descend on this British port city mixed with the anger of the Germans!

"My God, it's a German plane. Aren't they bombing London all the time? Why did they come here suddenly?" When the roar of engines came from the sky, the citizens of Kingston upon Hull looked a little panicked. Watching the German bombers gradually appearing from a distance, although the Luftwaffe has been bombing the British mainland for dozens of days, most of the targets are in the London area. The citizens of Kingston upon Hull can only choose from Rumors knew a few bits and pieces about the German bombing.

They speculated and argued. They wondered if the German bombing had been as horrific as some had claimed, or if it had had no effect as it was officially claimed? However, today, all arguments seem to be over? Are the citizens of Kingston-upon-Hull about to experience what it's like to be bombed? What? Where is the Royal Air Force, you ask? Sorry, everything that can fly is now concentrated around London, struggling to resist the German bombing, and Kingston upon Hull is really nobody!

"There are not many of them, and they are not arranged in a box formation. Maybe they didn't come to bomb." A former Royal Air Force pilot pointed to the scattered bombers in the sky and said to the passers-by. And as if to confirm what the former pilot said, what these bombers dropped was not bombs, but tens of thousands of leaflets and pieces of paper.

"The German High Seas Fleet will visit Kingston-upon-Hull tomorrow. In order to avoid innocent casualties, we hope that all civilians will evacuate this soon-to-be-destroyed city between today and tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock." The content of the flyer is very short, but It also made people feel horrible! The citizens of Kingston-upon-Hull wish they had German bombers instead of a German fleet! The disaster brought about by the arrival of the German fleet is ten times that of the air strike!

"My God! The Germans are destroying entire cities! Where is our grand fleet? Where is our air force? Damn politicians! They only care about themselves! They move their families and wealth out of the reach of the Germans, and let us Facing the wrath of the Germans!" A British worker said angrily, maybe different people have different views on war, but now even middle school students know that when the Bavarian Crown Prince makes a certain decision, it is certain It will be done, just like when the crown prince said to bomb London, then the bomb will fall on the downtown area of ​​London. And like today, when it is said that the High Seas Fleet is going to "visit" Kingston-upon-Hull, then Kingston-upon-Hull will definitely usher in its own doom!

"Damn war, damn politicians!"

"Who will protect our safety? Is the British Empire so weak that it's time for the other side to call?" People were discussing and passionate.
