The second week, the entire fleet entered the Atlantic Ocean, where the wind and waves were usually one or two meters high, but the full load of the Zeppelin aircraft carrier was more than 33,000 tons. This amount of wind and waves was not a problem for carrier-based aircraft. Only when the waves reached five meters, the carrier-based aircraft could not take off.

The second week of training was carried out on this somewhat unrestrained aircraft carrier. The carrier-based aircraft was still empty. After a week of training, more than 200 pilots were able to take off on the aircraft carrier skillfully. Of course, accidents also began to occur. There were still one or two injured aircraft, but no casualties.

Starting from the third week, all carrier-based aircraft took off and landed. Although they were hanging exercise bombs under their wings, Li Mo's request was very special. All Ju87 dive bombers only hang a heavy torpedo of 1,000 kilograms under the belly of the aircraft. The methods of dropping bombs are divided into dive bombs and ultra-low-altitude horizontal projections. Simply put, the Ju87 dive bomber dive bombs are a torpedo weighing 1,000 kilograms, and the horizontal projection is also what kind of torpedo is.

This has many benefits. Ju87 can dive at a nearly vertical angle, and it is difficult to attack it by the anti-aircraft firepower of the bombing ship. If a torpedo penetrates from the top of the deck, even a 50,000-ton battleship will be seriously injured, and other destroyers will be destroyed. At the same time, it can also be used as a torpedo, which is called multiple use of one bomb, and it is also flexible and dive, and air shooting is also possible. This can completely make the enemy unable to defend.

After studying for several months, Li Mo also understood a lot about the navy's knowledge. Of course, Stephen, the deputy captain, also helped Li Mo very much. Judging from the training situation, everything was very good. The entire aircraft carrier fleet commanded by Li Mo really had one thing in the case. The main function of the six destroyers is also anti-submarine. Li Mo was still used for anti-submarines assigned to Li Mo. Because sonar has not been studied at this time, Krupp is also conducting research on this aspect, and it is estimated that the results will be achieved in one year, including radar.

After the third week, Li Mo returned while taking the fleet for anti-submarine and air defense training. Because the time for simulated naval battles was about to come, Li Mo did not want to be ridiculed by the whole of Germany. The fact that Li Mo challenged Redel has been reported by Blue Light, of course this was Li Mo himself. Li Mo wanted to cause a sensational impact and let the old German stubborn people understand that the future ocean will be the era of aircraft carriers, and the era of giant ships and cannons will soon reach the end of history.

On January 8, 1939, warships gathered in the entire Kiel Port, and more than 100 warships gathered here, including all German main ships such as the Gneisenno. These German main ships were of course for exercises. This exercise was for the commanders of Li Mo and Marshal Redel. Marshal Redel used most of the German main ships to deal with Li Mo's aircraft carrier formation. Marshal Redel's fleet had nearly 120 small battleships, heavy cruisers, light cruisers, destroyers, and submarshals, while Li Mo had six destroyers, six submarines, and one aircraft carrier.

The total tonnage is 30 to one, and such a huge gap in strength comparison. In the eyes of most Germans, Li Mo is absolutely impossible to win. Some people even made a bet, but few people are optimistic about Li Mo. Even those who support the development of aircraft carriers think that Li Mo has no chance to win under such a huge gap in strength.

The German Command also produced countless coaching bullets for this exercise. This coaching bullet is the same as live ammunition, but the warhead is filled with ink. This coaching bullet is also powerful, but it is not so easy for people to die. Therefore, such exercises are destined to be very dangerous, but such exercises are also closest to actual combat.

The commander-in-chief of this exercise is Hitler, and the deputy commander-in-chief of Marshal Keitel and the commander-in-chief of the Army and Air Force. The exercise command is located in the command. It seems that Hitler still attaches great importance to this exercise because Hitler feels that the time for the war has come, and he needs to know the true strength of the German Navy.

The route of this exercise is simple, which is that Redell leads a fleet through the English Channel and then goes around Britain to the right, while Li Mo sets out from the North Sea, enters the Atlantic Ocean, and sails around Britain to the left. The two fleets will inevitably meet. When will they meet? When will the battle take place? No one knows, it depends on the ability of the commanders on both sides.

It makes sense for Hitler to make such arrangements. He showed his muscles to Britain. Germany sent all the main warships around Britain, and was close to the Atlantic Ocean to conduct military exercises. This is not something interesting, it is simply a demonstration to Britain naked.

Raidel set out with the fleet that afternoon, and of course Li Mo would not fall behind. He set out with the aircraft carrier formation. Each of Li Mo's two 10,000-ton supply ships carried twenty aircraft on each. With the backup aircraft on the Zeppelin aircraft carrier, Li Mo had almost ninety aircraft to use, and the standard configuration of Zeppelin aircraft carrier was only forty-two. In this way, even if Li Mo lost 60 aircraft, his aircraft carrier formation still had combat power. Of course, Li Mo's aircraft carrier formation would take off at most forty-two at a time. Of course, Li Mo's aircraft carrier formation would take off at most forty-two at a time.

These extra aircraft are only to deal with losses. Li Mo doesn't have to worry about air defense, because Marshal Redell does not have bombers, only a few water reconnaissance aircraft carried by battleships. This reconnaissance aircraft cannot be used for bombing. Moreover, the Zeppelin aircraft carrier now has very abnormal air defense firepower. If you want to break through the air defense firepower network of Zeppelin aircraft carrier, it is absolutely impossible to rely on those few water reconnaissance aircraft of Redell, so Li Mo will never leave a defensive aircraft for the fleet's air defense.

The German media reported overwhelmingly and publicized the German Navy to carry out large-scale exercises, which of course attracted the attention of other countries. In fact, the most nervous thing was Britain. Britain quickly dispatched all the main battleships of its local fleet to make a defensive posture. Fortunately, the current Prime Minister is Chamberlain, and he did not order the British local fleet to follow the German fleet.

In order to understand the strength of the German navy, Chamberlain sent a reconnaissance plane to fly over the German fleet to investigate. In fact, no country can keep these information confidential. The warship is too big and there is no way to hide it. Germany is not afraid of British people's reconnaissance, and it is still following its own exercise steps.

Li Mo had already brought the aircraft carrier formation into the North Sea, so he asked his subordinates to continue training. It would take at least two weeks from the North Sea to the back of the UK. In other words, Li Mo's aircraft carrier formation would have to meet the Redell fleet at the fastest time. Of course, Li Mo would seize this time to continue training. The main energy of this training was to focus on bombing and air shooting torpedoes.
