Chapter 584: The Solution

The reason why Germany was able to gain a decisive advantage in this war has a lot to do with the fact that the German navy defeated the British navy in many naval battles. If the German navy has no way to gain an advantage, or even win, Britain can rely on its powerful navy to blockade Germany's coastline, and then use the resources of its vast overseas colonies to directly drag Germany to death.

In another time and space, that's what the British did. The powerful Germany was directly dragged to death by the British.

However, in this time and space, everything is different. In the decisive battle with the German navy, the British navy not only did not take advantage of it, but was hit hard again and again. Now even the main battleships are running out. This allowed Germany's overseas trade to continue. At the same time, it can in turn blockade the United Kingdom, causing the United Kingdom to fall into internal and external difficulties.

Therefore, the German Navy has become a vital force for Germany to win this naval battle.

This is also the reason why the German navy felt like an enemy when it learned that the British navy had not given up its efforts. Although, in terms of strength, the German navy has completely taken advantage. But no one dares to take it lightly. In naval battles, the factor of luck is very large. Maybe if the enemy is lucky, it may cause one's own side to lose completely in the naval battle.

It is undoubtedly not good news for the Imperial Army that the High Seas Fleet cannot draw. After all, it is impossible for the 1st Army and 8th Army of Le Havre to launch an attack despite the fierce shelling of the British Navy, right? In that case, what is the difference between courting death?

"Your Majesty, then we may have to temporarily suspend our attack on Le Havre. Otherwise, if we attack forcefully, the loss will be too great for us to bear." Marshal von Falkenhain said.

Qin Tian frowned, giving up the attack was not what he wanted to see. However, the heavy price to be paid for a forced attack was also unbearable for him.

"Your Majesty, since the British are using pre-dreadnoughts and armored cruisers, can we also use pre-dreadnoughts and armored cruisers? The main force of the High Seas Fleet is dreadnoughts and super-dreadnoughts. Ships and armored cruisers are used for offshore defense. We can completely let these former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers participate in the battle like the British!" Admiral Waldzer suggested.

Marshal von Falkenhain couldn't help but shine.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Doesn't the Imperial Navy still have so many former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers? We can use the former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers to deal with the British and solve the problem of Le Havre." Von Falken Marshal Hein said.

At the beginning of the vigorous development of the German Navy, the first battleship built was also a former dreadnought. In order to catch up with the footsteps of the British Navy, Germany built a total of 24 first five ships of five levels, including four 'Brandenburg-class' battleships, five 'Caesar? Frederick III-class' battleships, five 'Wei Chersbach class' battleships, five 'Brunschweig class' battleships and five 'Deutschland class' battleships. Although, these former dreadnoughts became obsolete before the completion of the British Navy's "HMS Dreadnought" battleship. However, in the era of dreadnoughts, the German navy advanced furiously, surpassing the British navy in one fell swoop, and finally pulled the British navy from the throne of maritime supremacy.

These 24 former dreadnoughts played almost no role in naval battles. Originally, it was planned to let them form an artillery formation to provide fire support to the army when they landed on the British mainland to fight, and it was considered waste utilization.

Qin Tian frowned: "Should the navy send out the pre-dreadnoughts and armored cruisers to have a showdown with the British on the pre-dreadnoughts? In that case, wouldn't it be unfair to the Imperial Navy?"

Marshal von Falkenhain and Admiral Waldsee couldn't help but be taken aback, then nodded.

Indeed, the Imperial Navy now has a great advantage. But now it is completely letting them give up their own advantages and use their own disadvantages to fight the British navy. In this case, it will undoubtedly make this naval battle very tragic. The Imperial Navy will also pay an unnecessary price for this.

Von Falkenhain and Waldsee couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. They are just starting out and haven't considered this issue yet. Now that I think about it, it's really something that shouldn't be.

"Your Majesty, why don't you attack Le Havre after the Imperial Navy resolves the crisis? In this case, it will be safer." Admiral Waldzer said.

Qin Tian shook his head: "In that case, it will take too long. Maybe the British will try their best to transport the 300,000 troops from Le Havre back to China. When we land on the British mainland to fight, There's going to be quite a lot of trouble."

Von Falkenhain and Waldsee couldn't help being dumbfounded. This problem seems to be unsolvable!

However, the serious expression on Qin Tian's face has disappeared.

"Your Majesty, you must have thought of a solution!" Von Falkenhain asked.

Qin Tian nodded: "Yes, the main fleet of the High Seas Fleet cannot be moved. In order to avoid unnecessary losses, it is best not to use the fleet composed of former dreadnoughts. In this case, we can only think of other ways .Fortunately, we're not really helpless against the British pre-dreadnoughts."

"Although the current capital ships of the Imperial Navy are still battleships and battlecruisers. However, the two aircraft carriers also showed extremely powerful attack power in the decisive battle with the British. This time, it happens that the carrier-based air force can be used To deal with the former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers of the British." Qin Tian said.

"Carrier-based aircraft unit? That's great. Doesn't this mean that the problem of Le Havre will be resolved soon?" Marshal von Falkenhain laughed.

He will solve the threat of the British Navy no matter what, as long as he can solve the threat of the British Navy. Then, he is satisfied.

"Let the 1st Army and the 8th Army rest for a while. Then pay attention to protecting the airport around Le Havre. I will give the Navy an order to mobilize their carrier-based aircraft to Le Havre and launch an attack on the British Navy's fleet. Attacking." Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Von Falkenhain and Waldsee immediately lost their pressure.
