"Your Highness, because of the tight time, we have not prepared a ceremony for you to hand over the rights that comply with the rules and your identity. I hope you can forgive me." Admiral Von Boer said first. According to the order of the German Emperor, when Prince Ruprecht arrived in Wilhelmshaven, the command of the high seas fleet was directly handed over to the prince. At this time, the German fleet was about to assemble, and General Von Boer, who had been in charge of mobilization, naturally had no time to prepare a welcome ceremony for the prince.&1t;/p>

"It's nothing. I don't want the British to know that I'm back." The prince said indifferently, and then ordered "Call the other three dauntless ships in the Baltic Sea."&1t;/p>

"Are you going to have a decisive battle?" General Feng Boer said with some surprise.&1t;/p>

"We should at least look like we want a decisive battle. Don't worry, the Russians' dreadnoughts are not in service yet, and the Gulf of Finland will soon be frozen, and they will not run out at this time. If I want a decisive battle, I will also pull up six quasi-fairy ships equipped with 12-inch cannons!" said the prince.&1t;/p>

This is definitely the truth. At present, the German High Seas Fleet still has two squadrons, with a total of 6 Caesar-class battleships in service. These warships have been replaced with a new fire control system, and the artillery has also been replaced with the original 12-inch 14o gun to the new 12-inch 145 gun, which is exactly the same as the artillery used by the first dreadnoughts such as Blüchel. The six cannons can also be considered to be able to fire from a long distance. So, except for the small main guns, these warships are really no different from fearless. If they really fight with the large fleet, then these warships still have to carry them. After all, 36 12-inch cannons can also cause damage, and even if they cannot do damage, it is okay to share the damage?!&1t;/p>

To put it bluntly, these former fearless people are actually ready to throw them away. Once the situation is not good, a gecko will be cut off. But there is no way, the war is so cruel, and the prince believes that these former fearless people will definitely play some role in the main force's decisive battle.&1t;/p>

"That will take at least nearly 3 days." General Von Boer said.&1t;/p>

"Then go quickly. In addition, how are our camouflage battleships doing? If I remember correctly, then there should be at least three now, right?" asked the prince. The camouflage cruiser is a cruiser covered in the sash of a civilian ship, while the so-called camouflage battleships were made with a large civilian ship as a battleship. The British had done this kind of thing in World War I and World War II. During World War I, it was because of a bold sinking, and it made a fake "bold". In the second battle, the British also used the same method to make Germany misjudgment the size of the British fleet. So the prince also decided to get these few ships out. Anyway, they could not spend a lot of money. They could be the best, but they could not be deceived.&1t;/p>

"Yes, we do have three ships now." General Von Boer said.&1t;/p>

"Okay, pull them over, I need to make the British realize that our fleet is reassembling in the North Sea." said the prince.&1t;/p>

"Okay, the meeting will start now. Haven't the Moltkes and the others sent me to the telegram yet?" asked the prince.&1t;/p>

"Not yet, maybe, we can't receive it, but I can guarantee that they did not use the emergency frequency band for communication." Hippel said.&1t;/p>

"That's good, it means that it's not yet irreversible." The prince breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where is the Great Fleet?"&1t;/p>

"The great fleet should still be in Forth Bay. We have deployed submarine cordons on the periphery, and if they have any action, we can see soon." Admiral Boer said.&1t;/p>

"Okay, let's report to Emperor De, let's go out for a walk." The prince thought for a while and said.&1t;/p>

"But, we don't even have a plan now, so we'll go out for a walk? What you said is too easy, right?" Admiral Boer was completely speechless.&1t;/p>

"Because I need to determine the situation of the large fleet. In fact, if we walk around, we will make a profit. Our fuel reserves are more than 3 months. We have heavy oil imported from Romania and fuel transported from the Middle East through the 3B railway. Our fuel is quite sufficient. The British cannot do it. Their fuel reserves are much lower than us, and their consumption is much larger than us. In this case, if we go out for a walk, we will take advantage of it!" the prince said with a smile.&1t;/p>

Britain does not produce oil, and France does not produce oil. Their recent oil acquisition is the United States, but it is better not to mention the relationship between the United States and Britain and France. It was possible to obtain oil from the Dutch East India? It used to be, but now it is not possible, because it was just destroyed by the Dutch troops stationed in the Far East and obtained oil from the Persian Gulf? It really thinks that the Suxiong fleet is a joke, so the fuel supply of the British and French fleets in this plane is a problem.&1t;/p>

The Allies are much better, so, according to the prince's idea, I have more oil than you and consume less than you. If you play with me, you will definitely be the one who will fall into bed first. And the current situation is that the overall German fleet sails much faster than the British. In history, General Schell could run away from Jericho when he was slower and extremely unfavorable. The prince believes that he can at least slip away in this plane, right?&1t;/p>

Of course, more importantly, the prince needs to look at the attitude and reaction of the British fleet. Judging from the current situation, it seems that the revived British Express encirclement of the German fleet by the German Express. Then the executor must be the group of queens and battle cruisers. The prince knows that it is not possible to deal with the large fleet, but if the British Express is facing the British Express, 9 Bavaria alone is enough to teach Thomas to be a new person.&1t;/p>

If the British fleet does not come out, then I will lead the team to the North Sea exit to see if I can meet the British encirclement fleet. If the British fleet comes out, I will naturally evacuate quickly. There are two principles to catch the fast warship.&1t;/p>

First, the pursuit of warships should not be too slow. For example, the Queen's pursuit patrol is OK, but if you use ordinary battleships to chase Bavaria, then wash and sleep. Second, you have to encircle! This requires you to have an overwhelming advantageous fleet power. For example, Thomas Fleet 10 main battleships fight two German battle patrols, that's OK. But the large fleet wants to encircle the high seas fleet? This is a difficult point, don't say anything else, do you dare to divide the troops? If you divide the troops, it is the result of being eaten. If you don't divide the troops, it is the result of being thrown away. So from this perspective, the safety factor of the German high seas fleet is still high enough. When Thomas Fleet is not there, as long as the prince wants to leave, it is definitely no problem.&1t;/p>
