Chapter 326: Longyou Dayang

"The British have been thrown away! We have entered the Atlantic Ocean, and France is less than 70 nautical miles east of the fleet! In this sea, we are the undisputed king!" After a day and night sailing, a huge German mission The fleet has rushed out of the English Channel, and the vast Atlantic Ocean is in front of everyone. Although everyone has been busy all night, many people still use the precious rest time to experience the first large-scale appearance of the German fleet in the Atlantic Ocean. Thrill and excitement.

"Because of the high-speed sailing just now, our personnel are very tired, and the fuel consumption is also a bit high, we need to relax. Of course, you can rest assured that we will not miss the expected meeting time." General Ball said Prince Ruprecht said.

; "And then? What do you want to say?" The prince said with deep meaning.

"While the fleet is resupplying and restoring personnel, it is better to let the fleet continue to wander the Atlantic Ocean than to do something more meaningful. For example, get closer. We should let the French see such a powerful fleet. If we do, our later actions will be better."

; "Brest? There is an important port for the French Navy. You are so bold." The prince said sternly, "But, I like it! Let's see, since we notified the French, what did the French Navy do? What's the response!"

The German fleet's efforts to enter the Atlantic Ocean is not just to deter Portugal. With this counsel, the prince can guarantee that when the fleet appears off Lisbon, it is when the opponent succumbs! It may not even wait for the heavy artillery of the German fleet to take off their gun jackets before the news of the signing of the contract between the two parties will pass.

Except for the unfriendly British, the French are the strongest opponents the German fleet has to face and the most likely to erupt into conflict. After all, the two sides have already made hands in Africa. If it is just a few shots, That's fine, but the point is that a squadron of the French was wiped out! Up to now, the French have not responded to how the matter should be handled. In this case, it is very important to enter the French seas to frighten the opponent and understand the state of preparation of the French navy.

; "The fleet turns left 1.5 compass points, let us see what the French are doing!" With the order, the eight warships drawn a huge U on the sea one by one and headed towards Brest. They It will be close to a location 20 nautical miles from Brest, France, and then follow the coastline all the way south.

At this time, after receiving the news that the German fleet had crossed the English Channel, the French navy's assembled fleet was also concentrated in Brest. Five days have passed since Germany had informed the French through a neutral country. Although this period is not long, it is enough for the French to mobilize their most elite fleet. At this moment, there is a busy scene in the port of Brest.

; In the Port of Brest, there are a total of 6 new French battleships berthed, including the Charlie Matt, Massana and other 4 battleships. In addition, there are 6 cruisers of various kinds. After receiving the news that the German fleet has passed through the English Channel, the French government stated that it needed to show its attitude. Therefore, the commander of the French navy took the most elite of the French navy. The fleet set off, preparing to monitor the German fleet throughout. 6 battleships and 6 cruisers, this is already the most powerful lineup the French can come up with.

; But this time, the French seemed to distrust their navy very much, or they didn’t want to make matters worse again. In the order, they requested that all French warships cannot be loaded with shells in their gun cavities to prevent He wiped out the gun and requested that unless the German navy attacks or intercepts French merchant ships with artillery, the French navy cannot conflict with it!

Under the command of the commander of the navy, Lieutenant General de La Dravis, France’s most elite fleet set sail from the port of Brest, ready to search for the German fleet sailing on the Atlantic Ocean, and to their surprise, the distance Less than 25 nautical miles in the Brest area, the French fleet encountered the Germans!

"God! It's the fleet!" The watchman of the flagship Massana first discovered the smoke of the German fleet when it was sailing through the telescope. Clouds of dark smoke filled the telescope's field of vision.

; "A large-scale fleet was found! Suspected Germans!" This message soon spread to the control tower through the microphone!

"Damn it, it's the Germans!" As time went on, the French finally saw the iconic triple turret of the German Kaiser Kaiser-class battleship.

"Almost all the elite of the German fleet are gathered here, 5 battleships and 3 10,000-ton cruisers!" The Captain of the Massana, Ruiai, trembled slightly.

; "But it seems that they are not planning to fight us." The German fleet did not rush straight over, but maintained a distance of about 10 kilometers~www.wuxiaspot.com~ At this distance, neither side was effective. After hitting the opponent, the two huge fleets sailed almost parallel to the south. The German fleet did not further stimulate the opponent, and the French did not try to drive the opponent. Neither side aimed their main guns at each other.

"To be honest, the mobilization speed of the French has exceeded our expectations. In such a short period of time, they can gather the 6 most elite battleships in the entire fleet and almost all the armored cruisers that are numbered." And this At the same time, Boll is also a large number of the French fleet on the opposite side.

; The French Navy has a total of 12 battleships, in addition to the sinking of Charlemagne and the Kano remaining in Africa, there are also 10 battleships, and these 10 battleships are considered to be slower and in dock Except for the rested battleships, almost all the remaining usable high-speed battleships are here. The French cruisers are relatively new in the middle age (after 1892). There are 8 cruisers with large enough tonnage (over 4,500 tons). Except for the two sunk, almost all of them are here! The speed of mobilization surprised the Germans secretly.

; "But they are too old. Except for the 6 battleships, the remaining 6 cruisers are not qualified to engage us on the battle line at all. Those cruisers can only last for 20 minutes. Although our number Very few, but our tonnage is not smaller than that of the opponent, and our combat effectiveness will be higher!" The chief of the fleet's general staff on the side, Colonel Maas' words were full of contempt.
