"Damn it, the Germans really know how to find time!" After receiving the information, Thomas looked at the wall clock on the wall and couldn't help but cursed. The Germans were very good at finding opportunities. It was already 5 pm and it would be dark in two hours. Now, the British fleet is more than 3 hours away from the nearest warship, and it is impossible to track and fight at night. This is destined that the British fleet can only determine the position of the other party, and then accurately determine it the next day during the day. However, the range of activities of a team of fast warships in one night is very large! It is really difficult to simply rely on the power of the Thomas fleet to track.&1t;/p>

However, as the British squadron commander, Thomas has already figured out a solution! "If our information is correct, then the oil tank of the last battle between the Blüchel should have been severely damaged (there were more than ten kilometers of oil traces left on the sea). They can't hold on for long. If they fail this time, then there is only one way to sink."&1t;/p>

"The Germans are very cunning. At this time, the telegram was telegram. Although we still cannot decipher the content of this telegram, we can be sure that it is a telegram for help. If they want to go back, the high seas fleet will definitely come out to respond. Of course, we don't have to worry about this matter, General Jericho will deal with it. He will command the large fleet to try blockade against the German coast until we catch these annoying guys."&1t;/p>

"Okay, let's talk about our arrangements. In one night, the German fleet will definitely have the opportunity to break into the North Sea. Considering that the German fleet has two main battleships, if they fight hard, the advantages of our two Queen-class battleships will not be obvious, so I want to join the second team, the third team intercept and kill the other side's squadron together. As for Major General Moore's squadron, it's enough to block the entrance to the Skagerak Strait. The Germans can only go these two roads if they want to go back, and they are blocked by us. Then it's only a matter of time for us to kill them!" Thomas said confidently.&1t;/p>

Lieutenant General Thomas is definitely the "fine brother" in the British Navy. He did things to the extreme in detail! He firmly grasped the two centers and one basic point. The first center was to block the passage of the German fleet in the North Sea. The second center was to block Skagerak. After confirming these two centers, the German fleet would definitely not be able to go home. Therefore, the large fleet was responsible for the North Sea, and the strongest, with one queen, one tiger and two dreadnoughts, the Moor fleet was used to block the Skagerak Strait.&1t;/p>

In this case, even if the three Queens teams fail to find an opponent, the two battle cruisers, Moltke and Blüchel, will definitely not be able to break through the Skaglak Strait and return to Germany. A Queen and a Moltke can fight for half a dozen. Blüchel will definitely not be able to fight against the three battle cruisers, not to mention that Major General Moore's fleet also has a light cruiser team and a seaplane mothership!&1t;/p>

The so-called basic point is that we must concentrate our superior forces to fight the opponent! Thomas was deeply moved by the terrifying single-ship combat power of the German main battleship. At first, who would have thought that two Schonhorst could fight two Queen-class Quick Follow Battleships with a 25,000-ton Queen-class Battleship? After experiencing the defeat in the Indian Ocean, Thomas was so cautious when fighting. Therefore, after confirming the traces of the German fleet, Thomas must concentrate the main ships of two teams of battles to fight the final battle, 4 against 2! The advantage is definitely! Don't give the opponent any chance to turn the tables! Completely kill with the hammer smashing eggs!&1t;/p>

After notifying the Navy Air Force to ask the other party to cooperate with him, Thomas decisively sent a telegram to Admiral Jericho who had just returned to Forth Bay to explain the current situation and his plan. After just returning and after packing up the fleet, Admiral Jericho saw the telegram, he sprayed a mouthful of tea directly!&1t;/p>

"Is this nm still alive?" This was Jericho's first reaction after seeing the telegram! Jericho had just taken his fleet back to the port for only 12 hours, and he was about to go out again... During this period, Jericho had just arranged three battle-sick Revenge-class battleships for repair. The officers and soldiers under him had not had a good sleep, and the coal and fuel had not been replenished yet, so they attacked again? And they went directly to the door of the German Navy!&1t;/p>

"Thomas, you bastard, do you know that if you go like this, my oil depot will be close to the cordon?!" Jericho cursed while calculating the gains and losses of this battle. Why did the prince insist on meeting the British Fleet at this time? In addition to wanting to see each other's weight, the most fundamental reason is to make sure to make sure to make money and not lose money as long as you come out! Even if everyone just walks around and then flashes, the size of the large fleet will definitely consume more fuel than the high seas fleet! Why don't the prince do the things that are stable to make money and not lose money?&1t;/p>

In the current situation, Jericho was indeed a little hesitant. Thomas's seven queens and three battlecruisers had been running outside for more than ten days. The battleships with all-fuel boilers had burned tens of thousands of tons of fuel! This time he went out, tens of thousands of tons of fuel and coal. This time, Thomas not only asked himself to attack again, but also asked to block the nearshore at the door of the high seas fleet. This is not a problem of walking around. It may have to stay for a few days. The nearshore will also face the threat of submarines and mines. In short, this trip will definitely be unstable.&1t;/p>

However, this trip would not work. Thomas' fleet had been stalemate with the other party for so long, and it was almost time to be revealed. If the effort was lost at this time, the British Empire's previous efforts would not only lose all its money, but also a heavy blow to morale! This is equivalent to telling the world that the most powerful British Empire navy on the winning planet mobilized a large number of warships at its doorstep. Even if the blame was hit, Jericho and Churchill would not be able to bear the blame!&1t;/p>

"Tell Thomas that I agree with his plan, but it will be decided!" Jericho finally ordered. "By the way, bring three seaplanes and aircraft carriers, we need to know if there will be new actions in the High Seas Fleet this time."&1t;/p>

"Your Highness, Colonel Lefectov has come to an emergency call. The Blüchel and Wiesbaden will take on the task of luring the enemy. The Moltke will return at the right time. It is time for us to prepare." At the same time, in Wilhelmshaven, Lieutenant General Schell said with the telegram he had just received.&1t;/p>
