Chapter 871: No choice

Does the Bavarian royal family have admirals? I haven't heard of it, but the Bavarian Naval Design Bureau is quite nb. Whether it is the Scharnhorst-class battleship that drew the Queen in the Indian Ocean or the Bavarian-class battleship that is now beating its own, it seems to be from this design bureau. But someone who understands the navy? seem? There really is one!

Battle of Dadonggou! German armored cruiser that broke in accidentally! And that shocking double kill in extremely adverse circumstances!

"Ruprecht! Opposite is Ruprecht!" Betty exclaimed. Aroused the side eyes and surprise of the officers nearby.

"Is the Crown Prince of Bavaria? The heir to the throne of the British Empire?" said an officer. And this sentence exposed some of the officer's secrets, for example, he is a figure of James faction. (For the specific situation, you can Baidu it.)

"Isn't he an army commander? His legion is still on the Eastern Front, how could he suddenly come to the North Sea?" A somewhat surprised voice came out. As the first battle of pure steam warships, the battle of Dadonggou commanded by the prince still left a strong mark in the history of the world's navy. How many games are there in the World War of Shanghai? Although it cannot be compared with the subsequent wars in terms of scale or influence, it still inevitably becomes a model for naval research in various countries. There is no way, the sample data is too small...

"In the beginning, the Russians were brutally beaten, and then a few months ago he and his army appeared on the Western Front, and then killed the two French armies. Now he brought his army to the sea."

"Could it be that the German High Seas Fleet is also divided into the Prussian Fleet and the Bavarian Fleet?"

"Who knows, the army is divided like this, the air force is like this, and the navy may also be."

"It is said that all the capital ships of the German High Seas Fleet were designed by the Bavarians. It is not too much to say that Bavaria contributed half of the High Seas Fleet." Several officers on the side whispered.

"This prince may not have graduated from a naval course, but he has the most important qualities of a naval officer-keen mind, quick response and excellent strategic awareness. The naval battle process is wonderful, but the most important thing is that he knows How to deal with the rest, war and politics are inseparable, looking at his entire process, it can be called perfect. If one day we run into such an opponent, I hope you can take it seriously!” At this time Betty recalled When he was in the military school, a teacher's evaluation of the prince.

"I really didn't expect that I would actually fight this prince in this situation." Betty muttered to herself, "and we seem to have been in the calculations of our opponents. Their fleet strength is far beyond our expectations. We face It is not the Hipper fleet, but a main German fleet that is much stronger than him. Immediately report to Commander Jericho that we need more support! And explain to him the current situation."

A few minutes later, after Jericho saw the telegram from Betty, he was also a little faint. "The other party came from Bavaria? Six Bavaria? God, if I were Betty, then I would immediately choose to run." Jericho said after taking a sip of coffee.

"However, now that we have played against each other, it is not easy for Betty to want to leave, not to mention the loss of two super fearless ships. If this war ends in this way, the reputation of the Royal Navy may fall to a low level, and the morale of the fleet will also be heavy. The blow." Lieutenant General Duff of the Third Battleship Detachment said. (Lieutenant General Duff and Jericho are both on Iron Duke.)

"However, we really can't keep up now, the opponent is playing too fast, and we are walking too slow!" Jericho said helplessly after looking at his old partner.

"Well, send a telegram to Major General Hood to speed up his speed. Also, remind him to pay attention. The opponents are big guys with 15-inch heavy guns. These guns are big killers for battlecruisers. Ah." Jericho said. At this point they already knew where the two sides were fighting, and even in the best case, the British fleet went north and he went south, it would take about three hours for the British to enter the battlefield! Three hours? Jericho wanted to know what else Betty had left in his hands!

"Will I push Hood's third battlecruiser unit into the fire pit?" After issuing the order, Jericho said to Lieutenant General Duff again.

"Perhaps, but your current choice is undoubtedly the best. We can't die." Lieutenant General Duff said. If you don't send a telegram to Major General Hood, then when you are responsible for it afterwards, a hateful hat will definitely be buckled on Jericho's head. And if after this telegram is sent, it doesn’t matter if Major General Hood arrives, even if he arrives, or whether he will be beaten as a dog if he arrives, it has nothing to do with Jericho. If the allies are in trouble, I will try to save them, but still fight. But the opponent, that is force majeure. You can hold Major General Hood for not playing well, you can say that the opponent is too strong, but you can't say that Jericho is not dedicated. This is politics!

"Sometimes ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the wisest choice is to leave the things that cannot be saved promptly, and even if you know it is right, you can't do it. You know Duff, I have never been like now I feel so powerless. Behind me is a huge steel ship like a forest, but it can’t work.” Jericho pointed to the huge fleet in the distance, and the fleet was lined up in five columns with hundreds of ships. Under the cover of cruisers and destroyers, they headed south, the formation and majesty, even if you look from a distance, you can feel great pressure, but it is useless for the situation, they are too slow!

"At this time, Betty still wants to come back? He is like a gambler who is about to lose his blood! He treats everything as a life-saving straw! As everyone knows, even if his fleet merges with Lieutenant General Jeram's fleet, he still fights. But the opponent's!"

After reading a few more telegrams, Jericho had a more accurate understanding of the situation. Betty also sent telegrams to everyone he could contact. He, Jeram, Hood, and even Harwich, he asked all the fleet to move closer to him and launch an offensive at all costs. From the telegram, Betty What he thinks about is not how to evacuate, but how to fight it down. Even if there is a wall in front of him, he still wants to bang his head against it!

If it was Betty herself, Jericho wouldn't care about what you would crash into, but now, Betty is basically taking the British Empire's most elite battlecruiser formation and the other's strongest battleship formation to death! The entire Royal Navy may even get into trouble because of his recklessness!
