The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 964： Blockade in name two
The British were right, they were indeed two, because Cedric's behavior greatly inspired the enthusiasm of the Hipper fleet to "hunt"! The British don't have fast battleships! If you really run into a nail, just run! The fact that the Cedric successfully transferred in front of the British battleships has greatly inspired Hipper and others.
Coupled with the great victory of the Helgeland Bay naval battle, the confidence of the German navy was a little overwhelming. So, after Scheer’s application and the Kaiser’s approval, the battlecruiser detachment finally had greater rights of action. Of course, there was a premise. Yes, until the repair of the British battlecruiser is completed.
And this time, the two British super fearless ran into the Mochi and Goben. After thinking about what happened to the queens in the Indian Ocean, and then looking at their 12-inch armor belts, the two British warships wisely chose to avoid. , And then Hu Peng Huan You called two other battleships, but at this time, they had already moved in. When the news finally reached the British Admiralty, Jericho finally realized that the North Sea blockade had collapsed.
At this time, Churchill proposed whether the large fleet could be moved to the Shetland Islands to complete the blockade again. Jericho said that he could try it. However, on the third day of the British Fleet’s departure from Forth Bay, the German High Seas Fleet’s battleship again Appearing on the east coast of England, and then, Jericho, who received the news, was forced to go back honestly and squat in the Bay of Forth. Before a new fast battleship detachment was saved, the North Sea Blockade and the British offshore security were the same fish. Single-choice questions that are not compatible with bear paws!
The end result is that Jericho rejected Churchill’s bad idea of dividing the forces into two directions, and still firmly took the main fleet to shrink in Forth Bay and maintained the repressive patrol twice a week. As for why the frequency was reduced again , The reason is simple, the fuel is not enough... The German submarine is too powerful!
However, after Ruprecht heard the news, he regretted giving Jericho a thumbs-up. If Jericho didn’t resist the pressure, or if his head was dizzy and really divided, the prince wouldn’t mind replying immediately. Take the High Seas Fleet and the whole family up to Kiel Port to fight Jericho! Anyway, Jericho can be considered capable, even if Jericho and Betty are not very good, but at Jericho's funeral, Betty still personally attends. This ability and the quality of not fearing pressure are worthy of admiration!
As a result, the end result was that the British gave up the North Sea Blockade almost temporarily, and a large amount of supplies were shipped to the German mainland over a period of two and a half months, which greatly increased Germany's war potential, so that later generations were analyzing the Thunder Thebrus operation. At that time, they were divided into two factions. One faction believed that the prince led the German battleship squadron to hit the British fast fleet as the biggest result of the battle, while the other faction believed that the former was just a preparation for breaking the blockade. The two sides fought hard for this. This is a cross-domain debate that has lasted for decades. From the inside of the military, it hit the newspapers. Then when the Internet became available, it became an enduring topic. Neither party can convince the opponent.
When someone asked the question about the prince, the prince’s answer was unexpected: "If I agree with the former, then I will offend Marshal Hipper, if I say the latter, then I will offend Hipper. If I say equal importance, I will offend two eager people, so I refuse to answer this question. "Of course, this is a later story, not to mention it.
But no matter what, the prince's goal was achieved, the blockade was broken, and the number of fast warships in the British fleet was seriously insufficient. To make up for the shortage, the queens must leave the Indian Ocean and return to the North Sea. And the Su Xiong fleet, which had been suppressed and unable to do anything, finally found a chance to return home.
Anyway, Su Xiong is absolutely top-notch on the road. Looking at the performance of others in history, my fleet was trapped in the Mediterranean, and then being chased by the British Mediterranean fleet, the Suez Canal could not be taken, and the Italians were not allowed to enter the port. In the almost desperate situation, this buddy actually Can think of the way to go to Turkey! What is even more unbelievable is that he not only successfully retained the fleet, but also took advantage of the trend to draw Turkey into the camp of the Allies, and indirectly led to the collapse of Russia! Mao is dead, Su Xiong has at least 20% of the credit!
And on this plane, Su Xiong also performed very well. After the two Scharnhorst-class fast battleships and the queens pk a hand, Su Xiong's life in February later was very frightening. God knows when the other The two queens came to the door. If this is the case, I am afraid that Su Xiong will send a telegram: "The battleship has been bitten and will fight to the last moment."
However, I have to say that Su Xiong still has a lot of ideas on the road. After the battle, he first went to the German East African colony. After receiving supplies, he went all the way south and spent half a month in the waters near Mozambique. He felt a little wind. After tight, we continued to go south, and used the cover of night to bypass the Horn of Africa and enter the Atlantic Ocean! And it’s not too late, and we headed north to Namibia! Once again, I was supplied with supplies, and then went west, entered the waters near South America, and then stayed here waiting for news...
When a fleet of British warships and auxiliary cruisers almost turned the entire Indian Ocean over~www.novelhall.com~ Su Xiong was basking in the South Atlantic with two fast battleships... Su Xiong perfectly avoided the routes that all the Allied fleets often took, and waited until the queens entered the Mediterranean before returning to the Indian Ocean...
Later, after the war, Su Xiong, who had been promoted to general, also wrote a book called "Escape 20,000 Miles". It is about the Indian Ocean Squadron during the war. It is said that the sales are good, and the cost of the manuscript is much higher than the salary...
By the way, the admiral did not say that it was Count Spey in the Mediterranean. However, compared with his colleagues in the North Sea and the Indian Ocean, the performance of Count Spey has not been very good recently. The French fleet looks too dead, and they rely on Alexandria. A series of naval bases such as the island of Malta and the island of Malta have firmly locked the entrances to the Aegean Sea. Although Earl Spey made several tentative assaults, they were all blocked back.
Every time I see at least double-digit pre-dreadnoughts and a dozen and a half armored cruisers behind the main force of France, there are more than 4 dozen destroyers, plus the Earl of Spey, who has no more than 20 ships, immediately did not fight* Up. The main force is 4 Super Fearless and 2 Former Fearless patrols. How to fight this tm?
