"Damn it, how could the Caesar Kingdom's fighter planes arrive so fast? Give us another twenty minutes, and we will be able to kill their other two battleships too!"Admiral Andrew Cunningham was very angry.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander."Lieutenant General Bruce Fraser was also very sorry.

"Order the fleet to enter air defense combat mode!"But as a last resort, Admiral Andrew Cunningham had to give up the attack on the Caesar Kingdom Navy fleet and ordered the fleet to switch to air defense operations.

After all, it is indeed important to kill the Caesar Kingdom Navy warships. But, it is more important. The most important thing is to save your own battleships.

Only by saving yourself as much as possible can you kill the enemy better and achieve greater results.

The Royal Navy's heavy cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers, They rushed up one after another, guarding the six capital ships in the middle. At the same time, anti-aircraft guns one after another began to shoot into the sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The 40mm anti-aircraft guns and 2mm anti-aircraft guns fired continuously into the air.

The shells exploded in the air, leaving clouds of smoke.

At the same time, the fighter planes of the Caesar Kingdom Air Force had already begun their attack.

Among the 48 SM.79 bombers, Half were dive bombers, carrying heavy aviation armor-piercing bombs. The other half were torpedo planes, carrying heavy aviation torpedoes.

Under the cover of 24 MC.200 fighter jets, these 48 SM79 bombers began to attack the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet. Launched an attack. The targets of their attack were naturally the six battleships of the Mediterranean Fleet.

These huge, hill-like battleships were undoubtedly the best targets.

"Order the fleet to turn around immediately and escape from here!"Admiral Paul ordered

"Commander, are we going to escape?"Lieutenant General Chavani was stunned.

"certainly! You don't think those fighter jets of the Air Force can deal with the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet, do you? If we don't run at this time, once the Air Force fighter planes finish dropping bombs and torpedoes, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet will definitely come to hunt us down. So, this is our best chance to escape!"Admiral Paul is very sober.

He knows that the Kingdom of Caesar's naval fleet, which has lost two battleships, cannot be the opponent of the Mediterranean Fleet at all.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"Lieutenant General Giovanni nodded repeatedly.

Immediately, the Caesar Kingdom's naval fleet turned and fled the battlefield.

"Damn it! The Caesars were cowards and ran away."General Andrew Cunningham couldn't help but cursed when he saw this situation.

"Your Excellency, Commander, we cannot pursue you. We must first deal with these fighters from the Kingdom of Caesar. Lieutenant General Bruce Fraser said.

General Andrew Cunningham nodded:"I hope I can catch up by then.""

He naturally hopes to get rid of all the Kai navy fleet in one fell swoop. In this case, there will be no navy that can threaten them in the entire Mediterranean. The

Royal Navy only needs to keep a few ships here to ensure that this sea area of control

"boom!"

A bomb from an SM.79 bomber exploded next to the battleship King George V. The splash of seawater soaked most of the ship's hull.

"Da da da!"

A 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun was firing wildly. An SM.79 torpedo attack aircraft was hit before it could release the torpedo. The aircraft with its wings broken fell directly into the sea. The

Caesar Kingdom Air Force The fighter planes' attack on the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet did not achieve much results. They only severely damaged the battleship Royal Sovereign. In addition, the battleship Barham also suffered a torpedo.

However, the Caesar Kingdom Air Force itself lost more than ten aircraft.

When the Caesar Kingdom Air Force fighters withdrew, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet immediately pursued the Caesar Kingdom Navy.

But unfortunately, they were unable to catch up.

As night fell, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet had to give up. The pursuit allowed the Caesar Kingdom fleet to escape by chance.

Even so, the results of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet were already quite good.

It sank two battleships of the Caesar Kingdom Navy and severely damaged two more. In the next few months, There are no battleships available in the Kingdom of Caesar.

Kingdom of Caesar, City of Caesar.

Naval Commander Marshal Leifer reported the results of the naval battle to Benito

"Marshal, do you mean that at the cost of two battleships being sunk and two battleships being severely damaged, we only shot down more than 20 carrier-based aircraft of the Empire on which the sun never sets? The Air Force also brought in more than ten aircraft to severely damage a Royal Navy battleship?"Benito's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Your Excellency, the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet is already much stronger than us. Therefore, there will be such a result."Marshal Leifer also flashed a trace of shame on his face.

"asshole!"Lieutenant General Benito couldn't help but cursed.

"Well, Your Excellency Marshal. So what should we do now?"Benito said helplessly.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we must speed up the construction of Veneto-class battleships. It aims to have four battleships in service by the end of this year. In this case, the navy will have the strength to fight against the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet. In addition, we must build aircraft carriers. Without the cooperation of aircraft carriers, we would be at a very disadvantageous position in a naval battle."Marshal Leifer said.

Benito nodded:"Okay, I agree to speed up the construction of Veneto-class battleships. The Navy can design and build an aircraft carrier"

"Your Majesty the Chancellor, apart from this we can cooperate with the Third Reich. Not only could the submarines of the Third Reich enter the Mediterranean to fight. You can even invite them to abandon their fighter planes and move in. The Third Reich developed dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft before we did. Once the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet appears again, they will definitely pay a huge price."Marshal Leifer continued.

Benito's face suddenly became very ugly.

He resisted from the bottom of his heart to allow the military power of the Third Reich to enter the Kingdom of Caesar.

However, he also knew very well.

With the current situation of the Kingdom of Caesar Strength, without the help of the strength of the Third Reich, it would be difficult to cope with the Empire on which the sun never sets.

Although he felt extremely aggrieved, Benito still nodded in agreement.

"Well, let the Navy be responsible for contacting the Third Reich!"_To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
