German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 84 Undercurrent
"I don't think it's very meaningful to practice flying altitude. The main gun of a warship can shoot at an altitude of nearly [-] meters, and the damage area is very large. It is safer to practice flying high than low flying."

Amy quickly put forward her own ideas, but was rejected by Karl.

"Don't always think about problems with fixed thinking. Although the artillery of warships is powerful, they cannot target all targets at the same time, not to mention that we are fighting as an auxiliary."

Carl looked at Amy with a pensive face, and explained with his hands: "Their main guns are mainly used against warships, and the larger the caliber, the more difficult it is to change the bombs. The delay fuze of the anti-aircraft shells is difficult to adjust. The speed is the same and can be switched at will.”

"so?"

"So we have to intersperse back and forth among their different anti-aircraft firepower to reduce their hit rate."

"You are the chief officer, listen to you."

Amy nodded her head approvingly, then looked into the distance and started to be in a daze. This talented noble girl always seems to be a bit out of place, she stands out from the crowd.

Karl looked a little absent-minded, because this girl was really delicate, or her appearance stuck on Karl's shoulders, and wearing a uniform showed a bit of girlish charm.

But soon Karl withdrew his gaze, he was not that kind of person, and he would not have too many thoughts of that kind.

"Squadron leader, I request another climb drill."

Hasmihak's voice came over, and the tone in the communication technique was very firm, which seemed to have aroused the fighting spirit for training.

"Wait a minute, let everyone rest for 5 minutes."

Karl smiled, a competitive captain of Egyptian descent, this character Karl likes very much.But at the same time, he has too little communication with other people. Like Amy, this is not conducive to future teamwork.

Karl has discovered this problem before and tried to communicate, but it seems that he is often targeted by other Germans. He prefers to grow up alone and surpass everyone.

Although he is a little reticent now, he can still grin his teeth occasionally for Carl, and it should be much better if he gives more guidance in the future.

"Lieutenant Amy, let everyone descend to a height of 3000 meters, rest for 5 minutes and then do another climbing exercise."

After Karl gave the order, he descended by himself. Amy immediately conveyed Karl's order to all the staff through the communication equipment, and then descended with Karl.

The entire 1033 Squadron had a busy day, climbing, accelerating, descending, and decelerating. This was mental and physical torture. After all, no one would be so perverted in the previous training, and such boring and energy-consuming things continued over and over again.

When they returned to the station, their stomachs were already rumbling. Once they stopped, their legs would start to tremble uncontrollably. They all secretly vowed in their hearts that if they could change teams, they would change without hesitation.

However, this high-intensity targeted training also allowed them to easily climb to a height of 6000 meters after one month, and maintain a speed of 130 kilometers per hour for more than 10 minutes.

This result is a bucket result, a result that everyone can achieve, which directly makes this aviation mage squadron the elite of the elite, king of kings, and one quarter is better than six quarters.

But the following training also followed, dive shooting and long-range sniping.

The busy ones are not only the 1033 Squadron in training, but also a group of logistics personnel led by Hanitz who has to manage logistics. In addition to managing air vehicles, they are also responsible for ammunition and guns.

But they are very happy, which means that this squadron can make dazzling achievements at sea in the future. It will not only be the glory of the Navy and the Central Army, but also their efforts.

The patriotic publicity and education in the German Empire is very comprehensive. Nine out of ten people who can join the army are patriots, and there is one patriot. If they can't fight, they really want to take a gun to hedge against the Franks.

However, there was not much time left for training, and a huge Frank fleet was passing through the Strait of Calais, quietly approaching the North Sea.

西元1914年2月21日，8时14分，北海与黑尔戈兰湾交界处。

Admiral Clem Bell stood on the bridge, looking at the vast sea with a stern face, and his heart was already surging as he looked at the vast sea.

In order to break the stalemate on the Western Front, the Frankish Republic decided to adopt a bold plan, which was to send a fleet to directly attack the Heligoland Bay and block the mouth of the Elbe River.

This move can be said to be very crazy. As long as the German fleet can be lured away from the range of land-based aviation, then with the naval power of the Frankish Republic, at least the German fleet can be severely damaged, thereby blocking them in the port of Hamburg. until the end of the war.

As long as the German navy does not leave port, the Helgoland Bay is equivalent to being occupied by the Franks.Captured Heligoland, and then shelled the German coastal cities, so that the German troops on the western front had to shrink, thus creating opportunities for the Frankish Army.

So this attack was also extremely fierce. The Frankish Republic formed a joint fleet, with the Atlantic Fleet as the team, and three battleships, five cruisers and nine destroyers were transferred from the Mediterranean Fleet.

At the same time, eight aviation mage brigades were transferred from the army to form the largest fleet in Frankish history.

For this expedition, Admiral Bell has 10 battleships, 18 cruisers, 26 destroyers, 9 submarines and 17 supply ships, plus 16 air mage brigades. This kind of military force is devastating for the German Navy. Sexual, crushing offense.

"My name will be etched in history forever."

Admiral Bell laughed. This kind of military power can easily win even if it is led by a monkey. What's more, if the success is historic and the awards are given afterwards, it is not an exaggeration to leave a thousand history.

The only threat now is the German land-based aviation, but they have intercepted intelligence that two merchant ships from the German Empire to its African colonies have just left the port of Hamburg.

It is only necessary to send destroyers to attack these two merchant ships, then the German Navy cannot stand still.When the time comes to lure the German fleet into the encirclement, victory will come at your fingertips.

"Your Excellency, the Caen has sent a telegram. They have found the two merchant ships and asked whether to attack."

A major walked up to General Bell, saluted, and then reported the situation.

"Notify the Caen and let them follow it for at least three hours before taking action. We haven't reached the designated sea area yet, and the action now may cause a wrong time."

General Bell ordered after a moment of thought.

"Yes, I will notify the Caen right away."

The major saluted, turned and left the bridge.

"The German navy is about to retire early."

General Bell muttered to himself, with a confident smile on his face, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the sea again.
