Jagged Germany

  The German Navy's carrier-based aircraft units moved quickly. After arriving in Le Havre, they immediately began preparations for the attack. With the efforts of the logistics department, a large amount of aviation ammunition arrived at the front line.

   On May 10, everything is ready.

"General Crook, General Ludendorff. According to the information we have, the British fleet is about 20 kilometers away from Le Havre. If Le Havre is attacked by our army, they will You can sail to Le Havre immediately, and you can start shelling in half an hour." Lieutenant General Ingenor said.

  Admiral Crook and Lieutenant General Ludendorff nodded.

"Last time, we were fooled by them because of our negligence! At that time, the reconnaissance plane did not find the British fleet, thinking that there was no danger. The infantry launched the attack. But who knows, after the attack into the Le After Havre, we were bombarded by the British fleet, which caused us heavy losses." Lieutenant General Ludendorff said.

   "This time, the British fleet will not have another chance to attack. Our carrier-based aircraft will sink all the British warships." Lieutenant General Ingenor said confidently.

"By the way, General, there is one more news I need to inform you. In order to show its support for the Army, the Imperial Navy has mobilized a fleet of ten former dreadnoughts, and they are on their way to Le Havre. Because The Straits of Dover and the English Channel are densely covered with mines. Therefore, the fleet needs to detour around the west of England. It is expected to arrive tomorrow morning. At that time, they will cooperate with the army to launch an artillery attack on Le Havre to eliminate the British Expeditionary Force here ’” Lieutenant General Ingenuel said.

   "This is really great! We have suffered so many shells from the British navy. Now, it is the turn of the British to suffer from our navy's shells." Admiral Crook said with a smile.

  Lieutenant General Ludendorff's face was also full of smiles. If there is fire support from the Navy's ten former dreadnoughts, this will allow them to have more powerful firepower when attacking Le Havre. In this way, they will be able to take Le Havre at a minimum cost.

"General, our troops are already preparing. Half an hour later, the 3rd and 4th Carrier Air Wings will take off for combat. An hour later, the 5th and 6th Carrier Air Wings will also take off for combat. ...I estimate that after the four carrier-based aircraft wings launch the attack, there will not be many warships left in the British fleet. At that time, it will be almost enough to send some carrier-based aircraft to mop up the tail." Lieutenant General Ingenuel said.

   "General Ingenuel, the specific command is up to you to decide. We only need one result. I believe that the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft force will easily win this time!" Admiral Crook said.

   "Yes, General." Lieutenant General Ingenuel said no more.

  At this moment in Le Havre, the life of the British Expeditionary Force is relatively comfortable. Under the threat of the British fleet, the German Army did not dare to approach Le Havre at all, and naturally it was impossible to threaten them. They finally don't have to live in fear anymore. Although various supplies have begun to run short, at least they have not yet reached the point of starvation. This may be the most leisurely period after the expeditionary force arrived in France to fight on the battlefield.

   "General Haig, how is the morale of the troops recovering?" Sir French asked.

   "Your Excellency, the morale of the troops has fully recovered. The soldiers have great confidence in defending Le Havre." Admiral Haig said.

  Of course, everyone knows that this is mainly because the officers and soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force believe that with the fire cover of the naval fleet, it is impossible for the German army to attack them. In this case, of course they have nothing to fear.

Sir French nodded: "However, I always feel that the Germans will not let it go. They will not let us stay in Le Havre. If not, they will plan something to deal with us conspiracy."

Admiral Haig frowned: "Your Excellency, perhaps it is true. However, what else can the Germans do in such a situation? The Royal Navy did not notice that the main German fleet was going south. What's more , The final decisive battle between the Royal Navy and the Germans is about to begin. At this time, the Germans should not send a fleet to drive the Royal Navy's fleet."

  Sir French thought for a while, then nodded: "I hope God can bless the British Empire this time and tide over the difficulties!"

   "God will bless the British Empire. Our bad luck is over, and now we are getting lucky. In this war, we will definitely win." Admiral Haig seemed confident. However, it is not clear where his confidence comes from.

   At 9:00 am on May 10, the German Navy carrier-based aircraft force had completed preparations for the attack.

   "Order the 3rd and 4th carrier-based air wing to take off!" Lieutenant General Ingenuel ordered.

   "Yes, General."

  After the order was issued, the 128 combat aircraft of the 3rd and 4th Carrier Air Wings took off from the runway of the airport in sequence and rushed into the sky. After completing the formation over the airport, they flew to the waters west of Le Havre.

   "My God! The plane, the German plane."

   "The Germans are really powerful, and they are equipped with so many planes. They shouldn't be here to bomb us, right?"

  When the German carrier-based aircraft flew over Le Havre, the officers and soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force all exclaimed. Although it is not the first time they have seen the plane. However, it is definitely the first time that such a large-scale fleet has been seen.

   Sir French and Admiral Haig also saw the fleet flying over Le Havre. However, their faces became quite ugly.

   "Damn it, these planes of the Germans are probably heading towards the Royal Navy. I knew that the Germans would not let it go like this." Sir French cursed.

   "I heard that the German Navy also used aircraft in the decisive battle with the Royal Navy. Now it seems that they want to use aircraft to deal with our fleet." Admiral Haig's face was livid. I don't know where the previous self-confidence has gone. Obviously, the dispatch of the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force made them feel a great crisis.

   "Telegram General Caveson immediately to tell him the news!" Sir French said.

  As for how Lieutenant General Caveson and the British fleet should respond, or whether they can withstand the attack of German aircraft, they don't know.
