Chapter 1783 The choice of the high seas fleet 1

"Now, how are the work of each fleet going?" Sher said to his chief of staff Major General Trota, of course, this so-called work is not about combat training tasks, but about the attitude of the fleet in this political incident. Sher still overestimated his influence. Even though he had been the commander of the fleet for five years, he still could not fully master the army with the most technical level and combat skills! There is no way, the components of the navy are too complex, and the thinking and minds of the navy officers and soldiers are much more complicated than those of the army.

This does not mean that General Schell cannot suppress through tough measures, nor does it mean that the people below have violent disobedience. Overall, the High Seas Fleet is still quite fond of this general. Considering that there are still a series of tough battles to fight with the British fleet in the future, General Schell tries to convince those with different political views with the greatest patience. Of course, the General will never be ruthless to some of the deadly hard elements who are specialized in bad things hidden in it.

"The Bavarians in the fleet expressed their willingness to support General Hippel's orders. Of course, fundamentally, they were willing to follow their kingdoms. These people accounted for about a quarter of the fleet's personnel. Among the remaining 75% of the people, there were about 30%. We could control the other 30%. And 15% sympathized with the parliament, and they believed that a parliamentary government would be more suitable for this country than the German emperor." Major General Trota thought for a while and said.

"Is it 15%? There are thousands of people." Admiral Schell said, touching his chin. Judging from the current situation, the situation in the fleet is relatively stable, but there must be more people on the shore who tend to be the Social Democratic Party. To be honest, although Admiral Schell also doesn't like the Junker nobles controlling the regime and has complained about some of the German Emperor's practices, he is still very disgusted with the Social Democratic Party's choice to cause trouble at this time!

"Go and tell all the officers and soldiers that the top leaders of the fleet are not interested in being involved in this political incident. Our current attitude is neutral! We do not need to use the guns and cannons in our hands to target any side! However, as a German Imperial Navy soldier, we must ensure the victory of the war, and at the same time we will never tolerate anyone or organization using the Imperial Navy's materials and arms to participate in this political time!"

"Order! The Empire's High Seas Fleet operates separately and immediately return to all naval anchorages and ports as planned! The ships and shore personnel of the High Seas Fleet immediately take over the ports and the warehouses, public facilities and defenses of the cities they belong to! Ensure that the ports and warehouse supplies can be transported to the western front line along the original railway line. If land traffic is not accessible, the third battleship detachment of the High Seas Fleet will cover the transport fleet to Belgium to transport supplies! The air force of the High Seas Fleet will provide air cover!"

"Secondly, take over the facilities of the navy, especially the arsenal and material warehouse. No one can mobilize any supplies in the arsenal without my handwriting! I repeat again, it is everyone! Even if someone on the shore has received weapons and materials, if he is unwilling to accept the fleet's orders, he will be dealt with as an enemy! That's it!"

"Third, let us announce our policies nationwide. The High Seas Fleet will uphold its mission and accuse it of maintaining order and stability in its jurisdiction and the basic lives of the people. The High Seas Fleet is unwilling to point guns at the people of the Empire, so I hope that all parties in the country can respect the opinions of the fleet! At the same time, I hope that all parties can resolve this matter through negotiations." Schell ordered.

At the same time, the "Bavarian Navy Task Force" handed over to Scher had begun to take over important German Navy warehouses and facilities early on. Of course, there would definitely be some "friction" in the process.

A group of people were gathering in a warehouse at Keil Naval Base. Some people near the warehouse gate were wearing naval uniforms and obviously belonged to the insiders of the naval personnel. Outside, a large number of people gathered together to try to transport supplies and weapons from the warehouse. This was a light weapons warehouse of the Marine Corps, which contained thousands of rifles and hundreds of machine guns.

"Hurry up, there are only guns and no ammunition here, we have to rush to another place!" A man who seemed to be the leader shouted loudly to his subordinates. If these people were given 2 hours, they would have the armed forces of a regiment, and there would be no problem in controlling half of the Kil city!

"They are indeed paying attention here." At this time, in a high-rise building not far from this warehouse, a Bavarian officer in Marine uniform put down his telescope and said. At this time, around this military warehouse, about 800 Bavarian troops had entered the combat position and controlled several commanding heights. However, they did not launch an attack now, but were waiting for more people to enter the trap!

Before the incident broke out, Major General Shure of the Bavarian Navy Contingent discussed with General Schell how to deal with unstable factors in key cities such as the Port of Kiel. If it is directly suppressed, it is naturally easy, but it is difficult to eradicate the roots! Those people hid directly when they saw that the situation was wrong, and the high seas fleet had limited troops, which was very troublesome to deal with. So, after several discussions, Major General Shure came up with such a plan called "fishing".

The Bavarian contingent specially left behind if the arsenal was not controlled, these arsenals had enough firearms but lacked ammunition. After all, the latter might make some big noise. Therefore, in order to obtain enough weapons, these personnel had to gather in these arsenals. On the periphery of the target arsenal, the contingent and some naval forces had formed a siege, waiting for the other party to come to the door!

"Now there are about a thousand people gathered here, and there are only so many deadly hard-working members in Kiel Port. They are so naive, but more than 1,000 people want to control such a military port." said a naval officer.

"Now it's because we've made preparations. If we let them do it, it won't take long for them to join in and then expand rapidly like a snowball." Major General Shure said.

"So what are we waiting for now? Send them to prison immediately! This is the most important base of the Navy, and we don't allow any trouble in Kiel!" said the naval officer.

"Then let's start." The major general nodded, and the attendant behind him immediately picked up the phone and notified all the troops lying around him to start the action immediately!
