Inside the British naval base in Canada, there is a huge map of the Atlantic Ocean, with the approximate location of each British warship marked on it, and the range of the entire anti-submarine network. These things are very confidential information, but for those who can come and go, it is not something that is worthy of secrecy.

"The battleship USS Scoundrel stands by in the waters west of Iceland. In order to prevent the German battleship Redell from approaching Iceland again, it also has a fleet consisting of the battleship Nelson. There is no way to move." In front of Admiral Dudley Bond, commander pointed to a squadron on the map.

At any time, the wealth of money is a kind of capital. At least after 100 years of painstaking operation by the British navy, the accumulated family is not comparable to that of the German navy.

Although the British Navy ’s battleship forces suffered heavy losses during the Battle of the English Channel, the British government immediately deployed reinforcements worldwide and reorganized a large battleship fleet.

Including the Nelson and the Scoundrel, the British Navy still has more than 4 battleships on the Atlantic Ocean, and the German Navy, which has won the Battle of the English Channel, has only three battleships so far, Admiral Redell. , Ukraine and Belarus.

Although there is already a big gap in absolute strength between the two sides: at least the German Navy has an absolute advantage in the number of aircraft carriers. However, in terms of tonnage and number of naval ships, Britain is still the former powerful marine overlord, with unquestionably strong strength.

"A modified Essex-class aircraft carrier in the United States is coming, and with our Royal Ark aircraft carrier, the air defense of the fleet should not have too many problems." The staff member pointed with a long pointer Refers to the sea area west of Iceland on the huge map and states to his boss: "With the cover of the road-based aircraft deployed in Greenland, if the fleet is in danger, it can immediately go north to leave"

"It's just fooling around!" General Dudley Bond backed his arms, dismissive of the action plan given by the Americans. He worked hard to maintain the former dominance of the British Royal Navy, just to give Britain the last hope to keep a copy. Now that the Americans have encouraged him to let his navy rush to the nest, isn't he kidding him?

The veteran of the calm British Royal Navy stared at the huge chart, thinking about how to avoid the risk of encountering the German Navy to the greatest extent: "Let my fleet carry out large-scale **** at this time, American Is this going to take the last trace of blood from the British Royal Navy and give it to the Germans as a wedding gift? "

"Lord General! Things may not be as bad as you think." The staff glanced at the US Navy co-operation document he was holding and said, "The main force of the US Atlantic Fleet will also be added to the **** fleet. Germany Even if people dare to come, they won't take advantage of it. "

"Two days ago, the high seas fleet of the German navy disappeared!" Dudley Bond looked at his men and said with a bit of hatred: "If they did not come for our operation, why would they be dispatched?" Such a huge fleet? 7 aircraft carriers! A total of 7! No one can be found! "

Hearing this, the British staff showed a disapproving expression. The German fleet often disappeared for no reason, and then either appeared in Gibraltar, or tentatively entered the mid-Atlantic region for a lap. In short, the specific movement of the German navy cannot be confirmed. After all, the German naval ships have There is no interruption to go to sea for training.

A few days ago, the Germans just took advantage of the slackening of the British and US east coast security forces, and launched a fleet of sneak attack on the east coast of the United States. [ㄨ] This is the time when Germans are most unlikely to be active. So when we got the news that the German navy was dispatched again, more people thought it was the Germans who were confusing the Allies, or another attack on the East Coast.

"Your Excellency! But His Majesty the King has agreed to the Americans. If we do not dispatch the fleet, it may affect the alliance between the two countries." The staff finally came up with trial and error killer skills. After all, mentioning this, you can Let Dudley Bond yield.

Sure enough, the calm old general sighed, and then walked back to the door of the headquarters: "I want to personally command this naval battle on the Royal Ark! Since His Majesty the King appointed me as the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy, I would It is the responsibility to use every battleship in the right place! "

In the afternoon of August 14, the British Royal Navy anchored in Canada, one after another, the warships were anchored and set sail. The aircraft carrier Royal Ark was sailed again with the battleship Ramirez. Following the two battleships was the battleship Queen Elizabeth from the South Atlantic.

On August 15, the American Essex-class aircraft carrier, the modified Franklin after the Atlantic sea conditions joined the fleet, accompanied by a modified **** carrier just transferred to the Atlantic and several **** destroyers.

On the bridge of the aircraft carrier Royal Ark, looking at the brand-new American Essex-class aircraft carrier, Dudley Bond showed a bitter smile on his face. He knew that no matter whether the Royal Navy could finally win the war, this ocean would no longer belong to Britain. The strong productivity and the technology that has drawn into the gap make it difficult for the Royal Navy to maintain its dominant position. Whether it is the German Navy with newer technology or the US Navy with more powerful production, the British can no longer calmly face it. Right enemy.

"Send a signal to the aircraft carrier Franklin! Let them adjust the radio frequency! Keep the communication open!" After a bitter smile, Dudley Pound continued to fulfill his duties as commander-in-chief of the Allied Atlantic Theater. He quickly issued a variety of orders, and soon integrated American warships, adjusting his fleet to the best condition.

"General!" The staff stood behind Dudley Bond, and Lizheng Lihui reported: "The transport fleet will reach the designated position in 40 minutes, 2000 tons of aviation bombs, 5000 tons of aviation fuel, plus 200 spare engines. , More than 1,700 ground crews, 40 senior engineers, and 700 Air Force backup pilots and commanders are all on the transport ships we protect. "

"Very good! Keep the destroyers outside the fleet vigilant! Try to expel German submarines in the nearby waters! We don't want to expose our position prematurely!" Dudley Pound waved and commanded his men. The ocean in front of him was rare and clear, and the Atlantic Ocean was rarely without waves. Everything seemed so smooth that Dudley Bond felt uneasy.

Britain has no way to reject the US joint action plan. After all, this plan was finalized. It was Roosevelt's determination to continue the US battle, and he planned a combat operation at no cost. Compared with the United States, Britain, which has lost a shrewd reputation, is more afraid of the United States ’withdrawal from the war, so in order to stabilize the American main battle group, His Majesty the British King, without thinking about it, agreed to the Royal Navy ’s“ decisive action ”.

In order to ensure the success of this operation, the Royal Ark and the Franklin two aircraft carriers, and even the **** carrier, are equipped with the latest Navy p40 Rolls-Royce engine improved fighter. These planes are much more advanced than the British planes, at least there will be no brainless slaughter by German shipborne fighters.

On the bridge of the US Navy's aircraft carrier Franklin, a US Navy officer looked seriously at the sea outside the glass window. As a senior US military officer who volunteered to take part in this operation, he knew the true meaning of this operation.

"When war is mixed with political goals, it becomes less pure." The captain stared at the rough seas and murmured, "This is a battle that is beneficial to the United States regardless of victory or defeat. For the United States ally, Britain, this is not necessarily the case. General Dudley Bond, depends on whether you can win this battle and lead the ending in the direction that is beneficial to Britain. "

For the United States, even if it cannot win this war, weakening the strength of Canada and Britain is also a very important thing. If the European battlefield is really impossible, then at least Canada, which is entrenched in the United States, will be easier to control and more beneficial to the United States. So no matter whether this naval battle will break out or not, and what results will end, the Americans are already invincible.

Just 70 kilometers north of the British island of British mainland, a huge fleet was sailing silently, and the battleships one after the other split the waves, rushing towards them with an impetuous momentum. aims.

The flagship Empire, Zeppelin, followed by the Bismarck, then the Tierbitz, and the Dragon, Deutsche, Prussia, plus three battleships scattered on the wings of the fleet, more than 80 warships on the German high seas The huge formation formed under the cover of land-based fighter jets was marching towards the sea west of Iceland.

Lütjens put down the telescope in his hand and looked at Marshal Redel who was standing next to him. Without talking, they were engaged in a decisive battle to decide where this ocean belonged. Everyone was nervous for what was coming.
