"Transfer other airlines that have been trained in attacking ships to the north," said the prince.

"If that were the case, there would be some problems with our front-line airport operation speed." The air force officer said, looking at the airport dispatch table that was almost filled.

"It doesn't matter. If the airport really can't let go, then find a place to make a landing. If you really can't find a place, throw the plane away. Just throw the person back. Throwing dozens of planes is nothing." The prince's answer was extremely decisive.

"Damn..." After hearing the prince's order, everyone present was surprised. But after a moment, the staff members who obeyed naturally began to re-program the plan according to the prince's request, and all the spare airports were also activated as temporary airports for the fighter troops.

The plan after the adjustment is like this. The Second Bavarian Air Force will attack with all its strength as the first wave of aircraft group. Then, after the first wave of aircraft group sets off, the aircraft group that came from the rear special session landed at the frontier airport for fuel replenishment, and then attacked again. Of course, these are mainly fighter jets. If the bomber is carrying 400kg of bombs, it is enough to fly from the second-tier base to the Daniel Strait.

"Add some independent fighter jets, they don't need to escort, their mission is to freely hunt British fighters over the target sea." Two hours later, the prince glanced at the newly formulated plan and said.

"Your Highness, according to your request, in the air battle tomorrow, the number of aircraft we mobilized will exceed 400, and there are expected to be about 600 takeoffs and landings. This is almost the limit of the troops we can mobilize at present. We have drained nearly half of the aviation forces." After Kariput was sent to the plan for the last time, he said haggardly, with the expression on his face obviously: That's it, I really can't squeeze out!

"Can't you have more?" the prince asked with a slight eyebrow raised.

"It is impossible. Even if we can mobilize more planes from behind, the ground crews at front-line airports have reached their limit. They conservatively estimate tomorrow that each person will have to work more than 12 hours."

"Okay, then that's it. We have done everything we can. Everything left depends on the soldiers on the battlefield." The prince nodded and said.

Just as the Germans adjusted their deployment and were about to cover the Spee fleet back at all costs, the British were also doing their best to keep Spee in the Aegean Sea forever!

"We are not in good condition at the moment." Lieutenant General Trenchard said in a little embarrassed manner as he looked at the deployment of the British and French air forces on the sand table.

"We don't need the Air Force to destroy the Spee fleet with bombs, as long as we can block the attack of the opponent's Air Force, or in other words, we only need fighters this time," said the naval liaison officer.

"No, you have a problem with your understanding. What we need this time is to send a large number of fighter jets to hover in the air for a long time. This requires us to have enough forward bases to support the operation and consumption of fighter jets. Fighters coming from the rear need to refuel at the front-line airport and transfer. At present, the only thing we can rely on is Mitilini's airport, which has a limited capacity and is not enough to support long-term high-intensity aerial cover." Lieutenant General Trenchard said.

The continuous increase in the Bavarian Air Force will encounter the load problem of front-line airports. The British will also encounter these problems, and they are even more serious. Chios Island seems to be not far from the battlefield, but in fact most of the planes fly from Greece. If the plane flies southeast to Chios Island and then to the northern battlefield, it will take a breaking line, and the distance is even longer. If the take-off and landing, the added fuel is limited. After all, British aircraft are relatively short-legged. Moreover, the so-called "smart women" are hard to cook without rice. After the last time, the number of front-line combat aircraft has been greatly reduced. Before there is much replenishment, it will have to go through the second round of consumption. This is indeed a bit difficult.

"We can also send seaplanes and reconnaissance planes, and they also have weapons," said an officer.

"That's just a gift of heads. Every time a minute of delay is delayed, the blood of the air force personnel is used as the price." Lieutenant General Trenchard was very dissatisfied with this behavior.

"But at least we should organize it into the reserve team. This time the impact of the Germans is too great. We must take decisive actions, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. We must defeat Turkey and save Russia. Otherwise, we will most likely lose this war!" said the naval liaison.

"Don't talk to me any more strategy. It has nothing to do with me. All I have to do now is to plan the battle tomorrow." Although Lieutenant General Trenchard was very disgusted with the so-called "strategy", under the pressure of the navy, he still organized some of the reconnaissance aircraft and seaplanes that were originally auxiliary forces into the reserve team. In this way, after a long time, the total number of aircraft that the British side could invest was about 200 on the second day, and with the two French squadrons, the total number was about 250! Although the number was not small, the entire British Air Force knew how much water was in it!

"To be honest, there are too many auxiliary aircraft in these aircraft, and they were previously affiliated with different departments, and coupled with the poor frontline situation, it is hard for me to imagine how much combat effectiveness such a fleet can exert!" a British Air Force officer wrote in his diary.

Two hours later, Lieutenant General Trenchard informed Fisher of the entire plan through telegram, and looking at the fighter squadron that was not many in the battle sequence, Sir Fisher felt a little helpless.

"Maybe, at this time, it's not a good choice to have a showdown with the other party without sufficient preparation," said a colleague next to Sir Fisher.

"So, should we inform the French of our concerns?" asked Major General Duff.

"Tell me, just say that our Air Force is not very sure about fighting for air supremacy, and we must not delay it for too long." Sir Fisher's subtext is, if the situation is not good, then hurry up and rush it!

However, what the British did not expect was that their plan had serious problems at the beginning, not that Trenchard had made mistakes in calculations, but because, just before the Air Force came on the stage and before the final showdown between the fleets of both sides, Earl Spey had decided to pull out the British Air Force's most important support point in this battle, the Mitilini Airport! After losing the important transit station, it was naturally difficult for the Royal Air Force to travel. If this air defense network is compared to an umbrella, then Mitilini Airport is the umbrella of this air defense network!
