Chapter 1252: Follow-up response

Chapter 1252

This is not only to take care of the psychology of the pilots participating in the war, but more importantly, if they are rebuilt, these pilots will not need to participate in the battle for a long time, so they can be used as seeds to support new troops, and if they are dispersed to other participating troops , Then it is really consumed as cannon fodder. As for the problem of insufficient combat effectiveness of the aviation team? This is a big deal to delay some unnecessary attack plans. In the view of Lieutenant General Trentchard, it is better to cancel the Dardanelles battle, otherwise I don't know how many aviation elites will be consumed in this bottomless pit!

"As for the next plan, what do you think. This is the battle report given to His Excellency Churchill. If there is no objection, I will send him today." At this time, the Navy representative next to Lieutenant General Stetti asked Tao.

"Sink two fast battleships, and severely damage the other two?!" Lieutenant General Trentchard looked at the results of the battle report, frowning involuntarily. Lieutenant General Trenchard’s assessment is not just about watching the battle report, but also having a strong analytical ability. The two sunk ships were the two in Constantinople, and the other fast-damaged fast battleship was Erre. The Rechadia at the Battle of Le Sea. Considering the size of the C fleet and the intercepts encountered, and considering the remaining ammunition, he did not believe that a single-digit bomber could severely damage a fast battleship and an armored cruiser at the same time.

"The flagship of the Russian High Seas Fleet was destroyed by two German fast battleships in Kerch. The fleet of Count Luknar, who was supposed to go north to Romania, arrived with only one armored cruiser, and did not encounter the Suman Osman I at sea. So, we think this ship should have been hit hard." Lieutenant General Stetti said.

"There is still such a confirmation of the results? I am really eye-opening." Lieutenant General Trentchard's words revealed a hint of sarcasm.

"The Russian Black Sea Fleet is over. It can be expected that if the Imperial Navy does not intervene, the Black Sea and the Balkans will soon fall. And we need a reason to intervene now." Lieutenant General Stetti said. Obviously, the lieutenant also knows that this so-called confirmation of the victory is watery, but in the high-level view, they need a big victory as the basis for their next action. If the Allied Mediterranean fleet is severely damaged, then the subsequent Dardanelles The Battle of the Straits can naturally be launched, and if it is not severely damaged, it will be difficult for Britain to pass this plan, and as long as it hesitates, Russia is really dangerous. After all, next year, the German Eastern Front Army, which has already entered the state, is likely to go deep inside Russia! You don't need to occupy all places, let Russia's internal resources run out, and the economy and production collapse on their own!

"What's more, you are not sure that the Germans must have lost only 3 fast battleships?" Finally, Lieutenant General Stetti asked. From the battle report, Suman Osman I was suspected of being hit. If it hits a torpedo, serious damage is still possible. Therefore, on this issue, Lieutenant General Trentchard also has no hard evidence to support his views, and to a certain extent, the bomber force achieved such a result is a good thing for future development.

In the end, Lieutenant Admiral Steddy's report was successfully sent to the British Admiralty, and after receiving this report, Churchill and others got busy again! But this time, Churchill’s partner is no longer Sir Fisher, who has already taken the blame and resigned, and Henry Jackson has taken over the latter’s position, and is ambitious, ready to seek a break in areas other than the North Sea. But even so, after seeing the huge loss of the Royal Air Force, I was surprised!

"We lost 88 bombers and more than 500 crew members in World War I. I can guarantee that those in the aviation team would never dare to carry out such an action again!" Jackson shook his head involuntarily.

"But we have completed the task after all, haven't we? Well, although this time we also caught the Russian Black Sea Fleet, our advantage has been formed. There are only 2 fast battleships that the Allied Mediterranean Fleet can use, which is a quasi-dreadnought battleship. With 1 ship left, and 1 armored cruiser, the French and Japanese fleets can steadily suppress their opponents, and our large number of former dreadnoughts can definitely complete ground support operations. We can choose to land in the Dardanelles, It can also be pushed directly from Greece."

Churchill was sympathetic to the loss of the Air Force at most. In addition to sympathy for the loss of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, there was also some gloat. The Russians who lost the Black Sea Fleet might not be able to hold the issue of Constantinople in the future. What's the accident, right? Churchill, the British Empire standardist said in his heart.

"Greece has decided to stand on our side?" Jackson said somewhat unexpectedly.

"Of course, when the French fleet and the Japanese fleet appear on the Mediterranean again, they have no choice! It is the only choice for the Greeks to stand on the side of the victor. I don't think I hope that the king will be so naive that he can't see the situation. "Churchill said triumphantly.

"That is to say, we don't even have to be super fearless. Is the French-Japanese fleet enough to deal with the Mediterranean fleet of Earl Spey's allies?" Jericho seemed to grasp the point.

"Facing with only two super fearless Spey fleets left~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The French are enough, not to mention the Japanese fleet to help, our super fearlessness should stay in the North Sea to deal with the Germans, me and France They have contacted, and they said that they don’t need warships above the Dreadnought level for the time being. It’s good to provide enough ground support firepower. For us, it doesn’t matter if the Channel Fleet deploys one or two former Dreadnought battleship detachments, doesn’t it?” Churchill Today's mood is unusually good.

"If that's the case, that would be great." Jericho nodded in agreement. I have to say that perhaps this loss is enough to hurt Lieutenant General Trenthard's bomber force, but for the Allied Mediterranean Fleet , This blow is really harsh!

The two fast battleships in Constantinople will not have much combat effectiveness in the foreseeable future. The same is true for the Reshardier. Even if the British intelligence is biased, there are only 3 fast battleships available to Count Spey! In the face of the entire French fleet and the two Japanese Fuso-class battleships, it is indeed impossible to pull it out. For at least half a year, the Allied Mediterranean Fleet does not have the ability to resist the opponent head-on! (At least the British think so) For Churchill and others, this time is enough time for the British and French forces to push down Constantinople!
