Chapter 462 The New Overlord

"We won, we won the battle against England! God bless the German Empire!" William II roared excitedly, as if only in this way could he release the excitement and excitement in his heart.

"Your Majesty, from now on, we have replaced the British Empire and become the new maritime overlord!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz was also very excited. The German Navy can be said to have been created by him. It has always been his goal to defeat the British navy and replace them as the sea supremacy. Now, his goal has finally been achieved.

The other ministers were also beaming with joy. The German navy defeated the United Kingdom and replaced the United Kingdom as the maritime hegemony. This is of great benefit to the entire German Empire. At least, after the navy wins, it represents that they are one step closer to the final victory of this war.

"Your Majesty, the navy has defeated the British, so our blockade of Britain will continue. Next, the Imperial Army will launch an offensive on the Western Front within a week, completely defeating the British and French allied forces!" Von Falkenhein The marshal also said.

The loudness of the navy is undoubtedly a stimulus to the army. Of course, this is undoubtedly of great help to the improvement of the morale of the troops. In addition, the German army has been resting for half a year on the Western Front. Eight group armies, more than 1.8 million elite troops, have completed their preparations. Among other things, just eight armored divisions and more than 2,000 tanks will allow them to break through the defense lines of the British and French allied forces in future wars and win victory.

William II nodded, and the navy's victory also brought him great confidence.

"Very well, I believe that this time the Imperial Army will also be able to win on the Western Front." William II said confidently.

"Your Excellency, Marshal, what is the loss of the Imperial Navy in this naval battle? What are the specific results?" Qin Tian asked.

When everyone was cheering for the victory of the Imperial Navy, although Qin Tian was also very excited. However, he wanted to know more about the specific situation. After all, a tragic victory is also a victory. If it was just a tragic victory, it would be more troublesome for Germany. However, Qin Tian also believes that, given the huge advantage and the fact that even aircraft carriers are participating in the battle, even if the Imperial Navy wants to win the final victory, it will definitely not be a miserable victory.

"His Royal Highness, the Imperial Navy sank 22 British battleships and 5 battlecruisers in this battle, and the other 3 battleships and 1 battlecruiser were severely damaged. If it wasn't dark The Imperial Navy can definitely sink all the warships of the British. In addition, the Imperial Navy also sank more than 20 light cruisers and more than 60 destroyers. It can be said that the most elite main combat force of the Royal Navy, They have all been wiped out by us." Marshal von Pohl said proudly.

Qin Tian and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that the tragic victory they were worried about did not happen.

"In this naval battle of the Imperial Navy, one battleship was sunk, and three other battleships and one battlecruiser were severely damaged. Although the other capital ships were also hit by some shells, overall, they were not serious. The battleship that was sunk was 'Thuringia', the battleships that were hit hard were 'Saxony', 'Nassau' and 'Grand Kurfürst', and the battlecruiser that was hit hard was 'Hindenburg'. 'No. In addition, we were also sunk 7 light cruisers and 15 destroyers. Overall, the losses of the Imperial Navy in this naval battle were not large. Especially compared with the results we obtained, these losses are It seems insignificant." Marshal von Bohr continued.

A smile appeared on Qin Tian's face. The heart that he had been hanging on for a long time finally returned to his stomach. The Imperial Navy did win this naval battle at a small cost. This allowed the Imperial Navy to remain strong enough to deter other countries after the naval battle. The Imperial Navy is also strong enough to secure the blockade of Britain, and to conduct landing operations on the British mainland in the future.

Others were even more excited. The victory of the Imperial Navy and the victory of the Imperial Navy at a small cost are completely different things.

"Very good, very good. The Imperial Navy fought really well this time." William II was very happy.

"Your Majesty, from now on, we have become a veritable maritime supremacy. The navies of other countries can no longer compete with the imperial navy." Marshal Count Tirpitz continued.

William II nodded, and it was under his support that the German navy developed. Now, the German navy can defeat the British navy and become the new maritime supremacy, which makes him proud.

For the future of the Imperial Navy and the Empire, William II and others are full of beautiful visions. The British have controlled maritime hegemony for hundreds of years, which has enabled them to occupy a large number of colonies and seize huge wealth all over the world. If Germany can take all of this from the hands of the British, Germany's take-off will be just around the corner.

"Although the Imperial Navy defeated the British, we still cannot underestimate the strength of the British. Although their capital ships were severely damaged by us, they can be repaired in at most two months. By then , Those battleships can still pose a threat to us. Therefore, we have to guard against it." Qin Tian said.

"His Royal Highness, General Scheer has ordered that the High Seas Fleet resume its blockade of the United Kingdom. Next, it will focus on monitoring the United Kingdom. If the British Navy dares to fight, the Imperial Navy must have enough strength to destroy them. "Marshal von Bohr said.

Qin Tian nodded. With the current strength of the Imperial Navy, it would definitely not be a big problem to deal with the remaining strength of the British Navy. The British lost so badly this time, it is almost impossible to come back.

In any case, through the victory of this naval battle, the German navy successfully defeated the British navy and pulled them down from the throne of maritime supremacy. This is a fact that no one can change. Germany will replace Britain as the new maritime hegemony. A powerful navy will ensure that Germany has the upper hand in this war. At the same time, it will also win more overseas interests for Germany.
