Chapter 851: Road to war three

"Maybe General Hipper can sink a British battlecruiser, but this is not what we need. We need to sink at least three British battleships! Our efforts must be able to change the situation in the North Sea to a certain extent. , The empire is in a life-and-death war. The empire hopes that every soldier will perform his duties. The High Seas Fleet is duty-bound!" said the prince.

"And now, I believe that the British have also received relevant information. If Betty chooses to fight us, they will definitely strengthen. This is not something that the Hipper fleet can deal with, but such a moderate scale and delicious taste The prey is worth our hunt!"

"Although we still don’t know how the British will adjust the Betty fleet, we might as well imagine that the British still have a queen in homeland, and recently a new super fearless battle cruiser, the Queen Mary, is in service. , The number of Betty’s fleet may increase to seven capital ships. The large fleet will retain at least one battlecruiser squadron, which should be Major General Hood’s third battlecruiser squadron."

"The size of this fleet is three. Then the British also have three dreadnought battlecruisers, two of which are in Betty's hands, and one Australian may also enter. In this case, the peak of Betty's fleet is eight fast battleships. , It can't be more." The prince said.

"The size and strength of this fleet may be difficult for General Hipper, but it is just right for our Bavarians?" Scheer said. This time, it is the Scheer fleet that replaces Hipper for combat missions. When the first battleship squadron in his hands concentrated the most powerful combat force of the German High Seas Fleet! There are 6 Bavarian-class battleships in 2 units!

If there are 8 queens on the opposite side, Scheer's heart is still a little guilty, but if it is a queen with 4 super fearless war cruisers and 3 fearless war cruisers, then Sher's heart is only left. Although he doesn't know what he can achieve, he thinks that winning shouldn't be a big problem!

"Actually, if you only deal with Betty, such a fleet is already highly equipped. We all know that the combat effectiveness of the Bavarian-class fast battleship must be higher than that of the Scharnhorst-class fast battleship. But this is needed, because We may not only face the Betty fleet! General Hipper mentioned in the report many times that the British Navy and other main fleets have emerged, so our fleet needs to be able to deal with other fleets while dealing with Betty!" Said.

Faced with this problem, the prince also considered whether to solve the problem of insufficient combat effectiveness by increasing the number of warships, but doing so may cause the fleet to be too large, which will make the British smell something. You simply send a fleet, whether it is 5 or 6 ships, can be considered a small-scale attack, but if you add other warships, it will be different.

If you go out with 12 warships at once, Betty will definitely not fight you. If you have to go up, you may run into a large fleet... Judging from the current situation, the Hipper fleet is going to perform other tasks. Now the main force of the German High Seas Fleet is 13 ships, including 6 Bavaria, 3 Helgoland-class fast battleships, and 4 Dreadnought battleships. . Six Bavaria ships have occupied more than half of the remaining fleet.

In fact, the High Seas Fleet will no longer provide much combat power. And if all the warships go to sea together, the scale is too big. After all, the British can choose not to fight before the two sides officially fight! What's more, the four dreadnought warships have been in service for a long time. Among them, there is a slow dreadnought. It is difficult to keep up with the new Bavarian fleet in terms of speed, so it is worth noting that it is not included in this operation.

Sometimes in a war, you have to think from the perspective of your opponent. This time the prince wanted to give the British the illusion that this attack by the High Seas Fleet was the same as the usual attack by the Hipper Fleet, but it was a lack of preparation and no The subsequent harassment operations by the fleet. The prince wants Betty to believe that with her own fast fleet is enough to kill this fleet, only in this way, the British will fight, and only when it fights, the German High Seas Fleet has a chance to succumb to the opponent!

The prince’s heart is very big, so he must get a battleship kill score no less than Jutland! In other words, at least three battle cruisers must be sunk, and at least one of them is super fearless. As for killing tonnage, this may not be achieved. After all, the British also sunk several armored cruisers and light cruisers in the Jutland naval battle. These things are also very heavy when converted to tonnage! In order to achieve this goal, the German High Seas Fleet took out his most elite battleship squadron!

"According to my observation last time, the size of another British fleet is about 4 ships. I feel that it may be a dreadnought." At this time, Hipper spoke. Why is it said that about 4 ships may be dreadnoughts? This is not just because a dreadnought squadron in the British Empire is about 4 ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ More importantly, if the number of battleship squadrons reaches more than 6, then there are only two possibilities.

First, you are encountering a certain part of the British fleet. The scene of the super-fearless deployment of the large fleet with more than 2 dozens is really shocking, not to mention the large fleet, even if the high seas fleet were deployed in history, the entire length of the fleet would exceed 10 kilometers (because the front is fearless)! Therefore, it is really difficult to see the entire fleet from a single angle on the sea. Can only see part of it.

As for whether it is possible that the British sent 2 squadrons? This possibility is also very low, because Jericho emphasized that the large fleet has sufficient frontal crushing capabilities. If two sub-squads, that is, about 8 capital ships, are left, there will only be 16 remaining large fleets. This is no longer enough to guarantee the advantage of the large fleet, and it is more like a refueling tactic. It cannot be said that there is no, but it can only be said that the probability of occurrence is small.

Second, what you have encountered is a group of former fearless! There are so many pre-fearless British people. Moreover, if these battleships sink, the British will not feel much distressed. Given the large number, large quantity and enough combat effectiveness, the former Dreadnought battleship detachment will naturally be larger. If it is a fleet of more than 6 ships, Hipper might be on board, and just because it is a squadron of 4 ships, which is half height and not low, it may be a squadron of dreadnoughts, and Hipper was finally embarrassed... After all, once a battle is fought, it is not easy to leave.

The second is more~~~! Please subscribe for a reward~~~!
