Chapter 629: Quarrel between Cunningham and the British Admiral

After the "June Power" and "Revenge" battleships were completely destroyed, the remaining Wyoming-class battleships were also bombarded by one 6-10-ton high-foot cabinet super bomb after another under the fierce bombing of the German Do 217 and He-177 heavy bomber groups, and were bombed into pieces of 6-10-ton high-foot cabinet super bombs, which sank into the sea, and the entire army was destroyed.

"Not good! Commander Cunningham! If we continue to fight like this, our aircraft carrier fleet will suffer heavy losses. Now we have been sunk more than 15 different types of ships by German ships!"

Sir Charles Morton Forbes, who had been by Cunningham's side, shouted anxiously.

Next to him, Viscount Alan Francis Brook, Chief of Staff of the Imperial General Staff, Henry Maitland Wilson, Supreme Commander of the Mediterranean Allied Forces, John Colonin Tovey, commander of the local fleet and commander of the Naval Station in the Headlands, was also Andrew Brown Cunningham, who stared at the First Minister of Sea with concern.

Even the other one was named Cunningham, but he was not related to each other in May 1946. John Henry Dex Cunningham, who succeeded Andrew Brown Cunningham as the First Sea Secretary and the Chief of Staff, was also staring at Andrew Brown Cunningham, who was waiting for the other party’s following and how to deal with it.

"Working for a while, our aircraft carrier fleet also sank many German ships and carrier-based aircraft; our aircraft carrier fleet has more ships than the opponent. This is the best time for us to consume German warships. I don't believe that the German aircraft carrier fleet will be endlessly and continuously manufactured. It is impossible with their national strength and natural resources capabilities!"

But in response to the nervous and exaggerated British generals, Cunningham said with a serious expression and firm expression.

"But now Hitler is so powerful. He doesn't know what method he used. He secretly built so many aircraft carrier fleets and was able to buy and sell these high-level weapons and equipment for the Japanese. So I think it would be better for us to preserve our strength."

"Because we have to build the same number of aircraft carrier fleets, which is not something we can do in a short period of time!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Sir Charles Morton Forbes immediately retorted with disagreement.

"I don't care what Hitler used to build so many aircraft carrier fleets, but now I want to let him know that our British Empire's aircraft carrier fleet is not a coward or a bully character!"

"So today I insist on consuming the German aircraft carrier fleet with the greatest vitality!"

When Andrew Brown Cunningham faced the opposition from the other party, he was more determined to fight to the end, and at least he had to sink 10 more German aircraft carriers or submarines before he was willing to leave.

"You have changed! Cunningham, unlike Cunningham who was cautious in the past, I still like the cautious Cunningham. Now you are so impulsive!"

"We now need a calm commander to command us to fight. We must not fight against them when the German army is in an advantage. Our losses a few days ago were a lesson!"

Chief of the General Staff Viscount Alan Francis Brook also immediately intervened and opposed.

"You have also changed and become weak! When did our British Empire fleet be so afraid of Germany? We are the maritime overlords of the Mediterranean and even the entire Atlantic Ocean, but now we are defeated by our enemy, the German Navy, without fighting spirit or fighting spirit?"

"Do you do this to be worthy of your current position? Don't forget what dangers will our local people face after our aircraft carrier fleet is defeated by the German army?"

"Once we are defeated, we will face the battle of the Germans landing on our homeland. In the face of such a huge crisis, are you still timid now?"

But the more he listened to the other party's rebuttal, the more unhappy Cunningham retorted.

So Andrew Brown Cunningham, Chief of Staff Viscount Alan Francis Brook, and Sir Charles Morton Forbes, immediately started to quarrel, and it was very lively.

But when the quarrel was just around the corner, the German bomber group bombed more intensely, and a small number of German bombers and submarines had quietly arrived over the aircraft carrier where they were and the seabed when they were distracted.
