Imperial Overlord

"Dang! Dangdang! Dangdang!" The majestic music sounded, and countless people stood up during the German national anthem and stared at the rostrum in front.

The fake head of state, that is, when Li Le left the German capital Berlin once again, went directly to one of the German naval construction bases, Kiel Naval Port.

Here, Germany's first and only aircraft carrier Zeppelin has officially completed its refit and entered active service in the German Navy!

After two months of rushing for work, German workers have made the pride of the German Navy a reality with what may be the most efficient construction speed ever.

Goering stood beside the head of state, listening to the majestic national anthem music, but the expression on his face couldn't be described as excitement.

In fact, his current mood is very complicated. After all, this aircraft carrier was originally under the command of the Luftwaffe under his plan.

However, under the intervention of the Führer, the aircraft carrier Zeppelin, and more aircraft carriers to serve in the future, will become the new darling of the German Navy, not the toy of the Luftwaffe.

What displeased him most was that this fait accompli of allocating naval aviation broke his long-standing practice of "everything that can fly is under the jurisdiction of the Luftwaffe".

soon! With the stop of the German national anthem, the commissioning ceremony of the naval aircraft carrier Zeppelin officially began, and Li Le was the first to take the lead in applauding.

Then he raised his arm and clapped his hands excitedly. It was Admiral Raidl. The expression on his face was definitely expressed with excitement.

After all, he was probably the most direct beneficiary of the Zeppelin's service, so he was smiling like a groom now.

Goering also raised his arms and applauded the huge aircraft carrier in front of him. Although it was different from the original design, this warship should definitely be called a beautiful aircraft carrier.

With a fully enclosed bow that is more suitable for the Atlantic sea conditions and more modern aircraft carrier design, and an island with an integrated chimney, this 30,000-ton warship is more beautiful than a few months ago.

By removing the flat-fire guns on the warship that were specifically aimed at sea targets, the aircraft carrier can be said to have completely become a warship that "only uses aviation to strike the enemy in the true sense".

Different from the whimsical ideas of German designers at the beginning, this aircraft carrier was characterized by Li Le as an aircraft carrier, rather than the "air attack ship" originally designed.

The German Navy has no experience in the use of aircraft carriers. In fact, it is not only the German Navy that has no experience with aircraft carriers. The British Navy is also in the groping stage of using aircraft carriers.

At this time, the British stubbornly used biplanes as carrier-based aircraft, and required all aircraft carrier-based aircraft to be loaded with pilots!

It is under this stubborn insistence that British carrier-based aircraft have always been outdated and backward in World War II, until they used the Sea Spitfire to deal with the situation.

The Sea Spitfire is not a professional carrier-based aircraft, it is converted from a Spitfire fighter. Just like its German relative, the me-109t, it is an unprofessional carrier-based aircraft.

Therefore, throughout World War II, the performance of the British aircraft carrier fleet, compared with the United States and Japan, does not seem to be on the same level.

The British Navy, which has and has been using naval aviation, is still like this, not to mention Germany, which has never had an aircraft carrier and has no naval aviation.

When the German designers came up with the design of the Zeppelin aircraft carrier, they actually launched a "maritime aviation attack ship" based on the characteristics of the German navy to guess the usage status.

Under the influence of this kind of thinking, Germany's Zeppelin aircraft carrier is loaded with a large number of large-caliber artillery against the sea. Including 150mm caliber artillery, there are dozens of them.

This shows that when the Zeppelin aircraft carrier was designed, the possibility of single-ship combat was fully considered.

In other words, the German aircraft carrier will not be used in the future with **** warships to form a fleet to find trouble with the opposing fleet.

But as a warship that can carry bombers, go to the Atlantic to fight guerrillas, and attack enemy transport ships - it is incredible to think about it.

Li Le also felt that the Germans' brain hole, just like the UFO drawings they drew, was an existence that broke through the sky...

They were able to come up with the idea of ​​letting the aircraft carrier go to sea alone, and then fight alone on the vast ocean.

During the refitting process of the aircraft carrier Zeppelin, with the intervention of Li Le, it finally returned to its original position - the fleet aircraft carrier.

The useless 150mm cannons were removed, and the Zeppelin aircraft carrier installed several more aircraft in addition to a lot of fuel.

And the rest of the space, Li Le left the advanced Bofors anti-aircraft gun! Zeppelin's air defenses are stronger and faster than Ark Royal.

In this way, the aircraft carrier has finally entered the eyes of Li Le. Today, September 20, it officially joined the active service of the German Navy.

Of course, there is still a big gap between the commissioning and the formation of combat effectiveness, but the commissioning of this warship is definitely good news for the German Navy.

At least in the Baltic Sea, they have a real aircraft carrier that can train naval pilots, which is much more reasonable than drawing a square on the ground!

With this aircraft carrier, Germany can continuously train naval pilots and prepare for more aircraft carriers to serve in the future.

On the other hand, in Li Le's view, with the Zeppelin aircraft carrier and the Bismarck battleship, after the alliance of the powerful, the British naval fleet is nothing but a chicken.

His strongest fleet was dispatched, and the poor World War I battleships of the British Navy could not resist! With the cover of the Zeppelin, this trip to the North Sea, who will win or lose is still unknown!

"My head of state! Thank you for your contribution to the navy!" While applauding, Rader complimented the head of state beside him.

Li Le clapped his hands and replied, "Just don't let my hope down... At least, naval aviation is precious, don't waste it."

Rader nodded. He was much more cautious than Li Le. The Zeppelin aircraft carrier was an important step for him to rebuild the navy. He was reluctant to let this aircraft carrier have any accident.

Even in Raeder's view, it is best not to give the German Navy any tasks within a year, and let him organize the work that was not completed before the war, and then attack after the completion is the best situation.

"How is the training of the naval aviation?" Li Le asked again, looking at the giant ship in front of him.

Rader quickly answered: "My head of state, the me-109t fighter jets and the ju-87c fighter jets, are ready for ship training at any time."

"Protect the safety of the pilots! They are the most valuable assets now, understand?" Li Le solemnly instructed Raidel beside him.

"As ordered, I will pay attention to this aspect." Rader nodded and promised Li Ledao.

"Scharnhorst is returning?" After Li Le explained the matter of the aircraft carrier Zeppelin, he thought of the Scharnhorst that was sent out by Redel before.

The Scharnhorst, commanded by Lütjens, made a near-miss in the Atlantic Ocean and finally returned to the port of Brest, France.

Although many British transport ships were sunk, it also caused the dispersion of the German naval surface ships.

The strength of the German Navy's surface ships is inherently weak, and the number of warships is small. Of course, such dispersion is what Li Le wants to avoid.

However, Scharnhorst went to sea after all. It sank the British transport ship along the way, evaded the pursuit of British warships, and finally reached Brest safely, which is already a good result.

In this case, returning to Kiel Port is a more risky move. Li Le is not willing to stubbornly implement the plan to concentrate troops, so he can only let the Navy try to avoid such unnecessary risks.

With the support of the head of state ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and who is unwilling to fight with the British Navy in his heart, Raedl is of course willing to obey the command, try to gather the fleet as much as possible, and become a justifiable "existence navy".

He knew that Li Le tolerated the navy fleet to avoid war, and ultimately wanted the navy to go out to fight, but from his point of view, the later the time to go to sea, of course, the better.

"Yes! Scharnhorst is returning! Apparently the British navy did not play any role this time, and we achieved a great victory." There are not many naval achievements worth showing off, and this should not be counted. Once, so he quickly opened his mouth to praise his troops.

"A risky victory, after all, is not a long-term solution! What I need is a natural victory, not a gamble based on luck!" After presiding over the commissioning ceremony of the Zeppelin, he stepped off the podium.

Facing the cameras held by countless reporters, Li Le followed Goering, and Goebbels followed Goebbels, and walked along the red carpet to the naval headquarters in Kiel Harbor.

The media will naturally not be stingy with their own film, everyone wants to take a few more pictures representing the victory of Germany, and go back to be the subject of the newspaper.

The photos of the victory in North Africa are still on the way. Everyone is going to use the appearance of the aircraft carrier Zeppelin to fill in the newspaper reports for the past two days.

After all, an inspirational victory is also needed for the most recent Germany. After the bombing of Britain fell into an inevitable stalemate in history, the loss is still the pain in the hearts of Goering and Li Le.

Seeing Li Le's disappearing figure, Rader despised the head of state in his heart: Which of the things you did before was not gambling? Which is not an adventure?

Now, after a series of victories in your adventure, you are suddenly rational and back to prudence? Instead, teach others a lesson and not let others take risks...

Are you so shameless?
