Jagged Germany

  At the German airfield more than ten kilometers away from Le Havre, Admiral Crook and Lieutenant General Ludendorff are waiting for the result of the carrier-based aircraft attack.

"General, I hope that the carrier-based aircraft force can sink the British warships in one fell swoop. In this way, when we attack Le Havre, we don't have to worry about being bombarded by them again." Lieutenant General Ludendorff said .

"Well. Lieutenant General Ingenuel is very confident. I think the carrier air force will be able to give us a satisfactory result this time. No matter how bad it is, they can also drive the British fleet away from Le Havre. In this case, When we are attacking, we will have no worries. Without the fire support of the British fleet, it will be very easy for us to take Le Havre." Admiral Crook said.

   "Yes, General. We have wasted a lot of time in Le Havre, and we can't go on like this." Lieutenant General Ludendorff said.

  According to the original plan, they should have won Le Havre by now. But it's a pity that they had to waste a lot of time here because their offense was frustrated.

"General Crook, General Ludendorff. The 3rd and 4th Carrier Air Wings have completed the attack on the British fleet there. So far, the effect is good. We have sunk many British pre-dreadnought ships And the armored cruiser. Now, the 5th and 6th Wings are attacking the British fleet." Lieutenant General Ingenor said excitedly.

  Although, this is the first time for the pilots of these four carrier-based air wing to conduct actual combat. However, their performance is undoubtedly very satisfactory. The British warships that were sunk one after another are the best proof of their training results.

   "Very good, general. It seems that we are about to win? Isn't it?" Admiral Crook said.

"Yes, General. Our carrier-based aircraft force will be able to win immediately. Although it may be impossible to sink all the British warships. However, it is still necessary to destroy all their former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers." There is no problem at all." Lieutenant General Ingenuel said confidently.

   "In this case, it would be great. This afternoon, tomorrow at the latest, we will be able to resume the attack on Le Havre." Lieutenant General Ludendorff said.

"General, I suggest starting the attack tomorrow afternoon. In this case, the naval fleet can be given a chance to display its strength. A fleet composed of five 'Deutschland-class' battleships and five 'Brunschweig-class' battleships will be launched tomorrow morning." It will arrive. At that time, they will use large-caliber naval guns to launch a fierce bombardment of Le Havre. Let the British have a taste of being bombarded by large-caliber naval guns. At that time, the Army's It will be easier to attack." Lieutenant General Ingenuel suggested.

Admiral Crook nodded: "Yes, this is a very good suggestion. I also want to see what kind of expression the British will have when they are violently bombarded by our large-caliber naval guns." .”

   Lieutenant General Ludendorff also nodded again and again. Before that, they suffered heavy losses under the fierce bombardment of the British fleet. This has always been a pain in the heart for the two of them. It would be great to have the opportunity to fight back and make the British pay for it.

   Soon, the German Navy's carrier-based aircraft force determined the results of the battle. The 3rd and 4th carrier-based aircraft wings launched two rounds of attacks. The 5th and 6th Carrier Air Wings launched an attack. A total of 384 aircraft attacks successfully sent 21 former dreadnoughts and 13 armored cruisers of the British Navy to the bottom of the sea. In addition, some small and medium warships of the British fleet were sunk. This attack can be described as a complete victory.

  Admiral Crook and Lieutenant General Ludendorff sank the former dreadnought and armored cruiser of the British Navy with their carrier-based aircraft units, and informed the following troops of the news that the British fleet had fled in embarrassment. This immediately restored the morale of the German troops whose morale was low.

  Although, the vast majority of German soldiers are very brave, and they are even more fearless in battle. However, the huge power of the British fleet's naval guns still put great pressure on them. Especially the soldiers who were within the killing range of the naval gun shells were directly blown to pieces. For everyone, this is a shock from the depths of the soul.

   "Damn the British, their fleet was finally defeated by us. Without the support of the fleet, how can the British resist our attack now!"

   "This time, we will be able to kill all the British!"

  The morale of the soldiers has been restored, which will have an extremely beneficial impact on the German army's next attack on Le Havre.

   In contrast, the morale of the British Expeditionary Force plummeted to freezing point. Many British soldiers couldn't even stand the feeling of suddenly falling from heaven to hell, and collapsed directly.

   There were even a lot of British soldiers who left the defense area without authorization and came to the dock, wanting to escape Le Havre on a ship transporting supplies. Obviously, they no longer have the slightest confidence in the next battle, they just want to leave here and save their own lives.

   Under unavoidable circumstances, Sir French had no choice but to order the various departments of the British Expeditionary Force to stick to their own lines of defense, and not to order or retreat without authorization. In addition, a large number of military police were organized to prohibit deserters. But even so, deserters are still repeatedly banned.

   There is no naval fleet to rely on, which makes the British Expeditionary Force can only rely on itself in the next battle. Therefore, the British Expeditionary Force had to start to strengthen the defense line again to deal with the upcoming German attack. However, they don't think these lines of defense can play a big role.

  In fact, starting in the afternoon, the artillery of the German 1st Army and 8th Army returned to the vicinity of Le Havre and started shelling. Although the infantry did not launch an attack, it is always right to prepare for firepower.

  The next day, the morning of May 11, a large number of ships suddenly appeared off the coast of Le Havre. It's just that the flags hoisted on these ships are no longer St. George's flags, but the flags of the German Navy.

   "My God! The German fleet is coming." The officers and soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force, after discovering this situation, were all mournful.

   "Damn it, the Germans are trying to drive us to a dead end!" After Sir French got the news, there was no trace of blood on his face. Originally they were not the opponents of the German army, and now the German army has received support from battleships on the sea. One can imagine what will happen to the British Expeditionary Force.
