    "The opponent's fleet appears to our south! It is predicted that their naval formation will also be here!"

    The news returned by the reconnaissance plane immediately made Somerville's hands and feet feel cold.

    Originally, they thought they could slip away quietly, but who knew that others were already waiting for them to fall into the trap.

    "Why are they waiting here for us in advance? Did the Japanese tell them our target?"

    An idea came to Somerville's mind.

    But he quickly rejected the proposal.

    Now everyone in the world knows that we have a sworn feud with the Japanese.  No matter who you may ally with, you cannot ally with the devils.

    "Is there a spy within the Japanese army?"

    Another idea appeared in Somerville's mind. Somerville thought this idea was more reliable.

    Although Somerville made a guess in his mind, he also knew that he should think of a solution immediately.

    Somerville thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Order the fleet not to turn, increase the speed to the maximum, and let's rush out!"

    Somerville is betting that their navy is right in front of them. In this way, as long as they can get close to the navy, they will still have a chance to rush out.

    ?¡­

    Somerville was not wrong, the navy was indeed directly in front of them.

    When the Geely-Gaul Combined Fleet continued to move forward, this news also reached Chen Houfu's ears.

    "How far is our fleet from the enemy fleet? How long will it take before we make contact with the enemy fleet?"

    Chen Houfu stood in front of a long iron table with his hands behind his hands, looking at the sea map in front of him.

    "If nothing happens, our fleet will arrive over them in fifteen minutes."

    A staff officer said from the side.

    "Fifteen minutes? Very good! Give them the invention code to power up and ask them to surrender immediately. Otherwise, we will not accept any more prisoners in the future!"

    Although Chen Houfu has a deep friendship with Geely Navy, he even came out of it.

    But he knew that now was not the time for personal emotions.  This battle is a real collision between our navy and the Western navy.

    "At the same time, it is also the time when a century of humiliation is repaid, and there must be no flaws in this battle.

    "If you say you don't want prisoners, you must not take prisoners."  Otherwise, what will be used to wash away the shame of the martyrs?

    Only with the blood of the enemy can the shame of the past be washed away!

    It can be said that just fifteen minutes passed by in a blink of an eye.

    When thousands of planes once again flew over the heads of the Geely-Gaul Combined Fleet, Somerville's eyes showed a trace of cruelty.

    "All warships accelerate immediately!"

    All the Geely Gallic warships on the entire sea immediately rushed forward at a faster speed.

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    Stuka dive bombers began to attack.

    Stuka dive bombers dived at a nearly vertical angle. When they were still 800 meters away from the sea, they suddenly pulled up their noses, and an aerial bomb fell from their belly towards the warship below.

    Some bombs were avoided by warships, but there were many more bombs that warships could not avoid.

    ?? Continuous explosions resounded across the entire sea.

    Warships were sailing on the sea dragging thick smoke.

    Somerville stood in the command tower with a livid face, looking at the billowing smoke rising from the warships around him, but he didn't feel the slightest in his heart.

    Now he has only one idea, and that is to rush out!

    We must break out of our navy¡¯s blockade!

    Eight torpedo planes quietly approached their aircraft carrier Fury.

    At this time, the Furious is sailing quickly in the center of the fleet. There are planes everywhere now. The carrier-based aircraft on the Furious aircraft carrier have been exhausted, and even the reconnaissance aircraft have been eaten.

    Now Fury just wants to rush out as soon as possible.

    The eight torpedo planes were getting closer and closer. When they were only a hundred meters away from the sea, they began to fly in a straight line.

    No way, if a torpedo plane wants to drop a torpedo in this era, it must be as close to the sea level as possible, and at the same time, it must fly a certain distance in a straight line before it can drop a torpedo.

    When they are furiousWhen the aircraft carrier reached a certain distance, they dropped the torpedo instantly.

    Eight torpedoes dragged a long white wave line and sailed towards the aircraft carrier Fury.

    There were evasive sounds everywhere on the aircraft carrier, and a Geely Army sailor looked at the torpedo that was rapidly approaching the aircraft carrier with a horrified look.

    "Boom~"

    The first torpedo was loaded on the aircraft carrier Fury, and instantly a water column more than ten meters high rose into the sky.

    The entire aircraft carrier also shook violently.

    And just when the explosion had just ended, two more torpedoes hit the aircraft carrier Fury in an instant.

    There were two water droplets rising into the sky again, and then before the sailors on the Fury had time to react, two more torpedoes hit it.

    The violent explosion caused everyone¡¯s attention to be focused on the aircraft carrier Fury.

    Thick smoke billows from the aircraft carrier Fury.

    Out of eight torpedoes, the Furious aircraft carrier dodged three, but in the end there were still five torpedoes that it could not dodge.

    Somerville looked at the aircraft carrier Fury with billowing smoke. There was no expression on his face, but in his heart he seemed to have fallen into an abyss.

    The Furious aircraft carrier is an aircraft carrier they transformed from a cruiser in 17 years, and now its performance can only be said to be somewhat lagging behind.

    The Fury, with a displacement of more than 20,000 tons, was obviously on the verge of collapse under the attack of five torpedoes.

    At this time, the Stuka dive bombers above the Furious aircraft carrier also aimed at the opportunity and dived towards the Furious.

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    "Boom~"

    Continuous explosions were heard, and aerial bombs were dropped one after another by Stuka dive bombers on the Furious aircraft carrier.

    "Let's go! Leave the Fury alone, it's gone!"

    When Somerville saw this scene, he immediately knew that there was no way the Fury could survive.

    With five torpedoes and a series of aerial bombs, the Fury's armor was not very good to begin with.

    How can you withstand such damage?

    Sure enough, not long after Somerville's order was issued, the Furious aircraft carrier could not block the gap, and everyone had to abandon the ship and jump into the sea to escape.

    As time passed, not only did the Furious aircraft carrier remain silent, but even another aircraft carrier sank under the attack of torpedoes and aerial bombs.

    Of the ships of the Geely-Gaul Combined Fleet, only five battleships and two heavy cruisers were left that were not sunk.

    At this time, our navy finally met the Geely-Gaul Combined Fleet.

    It was three o'clock in the afternoon on January 11, 1940.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
