Romanian Eagle

Chapter 724 - Withdrawal



The reason for the dispute between the two was that a British reconnaissance plane was shot down by a fighter performing guard outside the fleet. Only before it was shot down, radio waves had been detected. In other words, their location has been discovered.

In the face of this situation, Lieutenant General Midraphael, the commander of the fleet, asked to leave immediately after the return of the carrier-based aircraft. As the chief of staff, Major General Fernandez has different opinions on this. He believes that at present the Egyptian British army should not have many aircraft capable of attacking the fleet. As long as the fleet is ready for anti-submarine warfare, another wave of aircraft should be deployed to blow up Alexandria more thoroughly.

Faced with Major General Fernandez’s idea of ​​trying to maximize the results, Midrafell did not agree at all, and saw him retort.

“Your Excellency the Chief of Staff, as a hunter, we cannot just take care of the prey in front of us and forget the possible danger behind us. Although I also know that another wave of air strikes will completely paralyze Alexandria, but it will put us in danger. in.”

“Your Excellency Commander, our air strikes have wiped out the essence of the British air force in Egypt. Combined with the telegram we received a moment ago, the British army has dispatched gladiators and Hawke fighter jets to intercept our air strike fleet, which is enough to explain problem.”

In the face of Fernandez’s rebuttal, Midraffa disagrees very much. “Your Excellency, what you think is the most ideal state, but the war cannot be handled according to your optimal state. Moreover, the British fighter plane encountered by the air strike group in Alexandria was only the first interception.

And have you thought about it. Now that our position is exposed, it is very likely that the British army will no longer intercept our airstrike fleet in Alexandria. They can completely let us attack and organize fighter planes to attack our fleet. And at this time, how should we deploy troops? “

Yes, Midriffel may not have heard of Tian Qi’s horse racing allusion, but the truth is all figured out. Compared with the British Mediterranean Fleet, which are basically old ships, Romania is a new ship. Don’t say that I can’t change it, even if I touched Midraffa, I feel distressed.

Moreover, this fleet is basically the full strength of the Romanian Navy. There was an accident. How did Midraphael explain.

However, Fernandez couldn’t say anything in the face of the words of Commander Midraphael. Although he consciously believes that the British army does not have much air strength, he only needs to work hard to completely destroy Alexandria. It’s just that this is self-consciousness, but consciousness can’t be used as a reason to say it, let alone the full strength of the Romanian Navy in this fleet.

So he can only speak in a negotiable tone. “We can wait for the fleet to return and reduce the scale of the third air strike, how about 150 sorties, so as to reduce our stay time.”

Midrafell was furious when he heard what his chief of staff said.

“My Chief of Staff, it is past 12 o’clock when the fleet comes back. You plan to come back later after the next air strike. It will take at least 2 hours. This does not count as the return supply time. If you add it, it will take at least 3- It ends at 4 o’clock. Let the fleet stay in a position known to the enemy for 4-5 hours. Do you know the danger?”

Seeing that the commander totally rejected his proposal, Fernandez wanted to fight for one last time.

“but……”

I saw Midraphael stretched out his hand to stop it, and the Chief of Staff wanted to continue speaking. I saw him speak categorically. “Nothing. Now I have the authority of the commander of the fleet to issue an order: wait until the fleet returns, and set off immediately. According to the scheduled plan, we will enter the Sea of ​​Love from the west of Crete and return to the port of Thessaloniki.”

Facing Midraphael’s order to retreat, Fernandez stopped arguing. I saw him walking out of the command room and outside.

Standing on the commanding tower of the Kurmis, this area is full of Romanian warships. From the mighty and majestic battleships in the inner layer to the destroyers in the outermost layer of the fleet, they closely protect the five ships in the core area. Aircraft carrier.

Fernandez felt secretly that after this war, the pattern of naval battles would change. The aircraft carrier will also be promoted from the auxiliary status to the same status as the battleship.

“Perhaps after I go back, I should report up and urgently increase the aircraft carrier’s construction plan.”

Fernandez was smoking a cigarette while thinking in his mind.

Of course, the time spent waiting for the construction of a regular aircraft carrier is not short at all, it will take at least two years. Of course, before that, perhaps a few more **** aircraft carriers should be rebuilt.

He looked at the Barker and Gilescu, which were clearly different from the three fleet carriers, and thought that he needed to see what other fast cruise ships in Romania were suitable for transformation. It is long and fast, but it is also suitable for transformation. These few requirements are really a headache. Maybe you have to wait for someone to help you after you go back.

That’s right, Fernandez is already thinking about the next step. Now that the commander Midraffa had made a decision, he did not continue to struggle. And through the telegram, I learned that these two air strikes basically achieved their own results, although there are still regrets. For example, in its third air strike plan, in addition to continuing to strike at warships in the harbor, it is also necessary to further strike at facilities in the harbor.

But after a while, the returning fleet has appeared in front of everyone.

The five aircraft carrier gaps began the busy and busy receiving work, but compared with the last time, the ground crews are much easier, because they don’t need to refuel and load ammunition for these fighters.

It’s just that the blood-stained people lifted from the fighter planes from time to time are also showing their danger. The crew of carrier-based aircraft is more dangerous than others.

So although the time for the return flight was more concentrated this time, the reception work proceeded very quickly. They only need to direct the planes to park, and then put them into the hangar with a lift. Of course, the last one that landed must be the HF201 fighter. This aircraft has been in the air for a long time, and it is also a fighter. Of course, it needs to be retained until the last reception.

Moreover, many of them were not put in the hangar after they were received, but instead remained on the deck. This is also a move made in response to possible dangers.

It’s just that it took a lot of hard work to fly from the morning to the current pilot face~www.mtlnovel.com~.

After the returning fleet was recovered, Midraffa glanced at the casualty report and issued an order. “Starting to return now.”

Following his order, the fleet that had been here for a long time immediately accelerated to leave.

As for the victims of this air strike, General Cunningham of the Mediterranean Fleet also received news of the departure of the Romanian fleet in an hour and a half.

Of course, it is the British Air Force’s credit to know so quickly. Even though the British Air Force doesn’t know about being indecent, it must take revenge, even if they are not strong enough. So when the British fleet of the brigade was divided into several strands and rushed to the Romanian fleet position on the telegram, no fleet was seen.

While continuing to look around, he did not see him again. It’s not that I didn’t see it, but the news of nearly a hundred fighters over the fleet at that time, so that these big herrings and swordfish did not dare to go and die. Of course, another reason is that the position of the Romanian fleet is already outside their combat radius.
