"Okay, let's start roughly deducing the whole process now. I am now the commander of the High Seas Fleet. Everyone you are doing is the British Navy. The current situation is that there are 3 Queen-class battleships heading to the Indian Ocean to deal with the Suxiong fleet. Then I will start to act now." After the prince finished speaking, he walked to the huge chart hanging on the wall. The location and number of the main fleets of both sides were marked.

"In fact, from now on, the high seas fleet can often appear near the British coast. Of course, the premise is to avoid the periodic suppression of the large fleet. This is not difficult, right?" the prince asked.

"This is not difficult, the large fleet is too large to hide." Tirpitz said.

"So good, after the Great Fleet ended a suppressive cruise, the main force of the High Seas Fleet in the North Sea, 5 Bavarian-class battleships and 3 Hurglan-class rapid battleships went to the British coast to carry out land bombardment and mine-bracing operations. What will the British do after receiving this news?" asked the prince.

"Betty's two battlecruisers formations will definitely come," said Admiral Boer.

"It doesn't matter, we are not afraid of them, aren't we? Even if all the British battlecruisers are coming, it's not enough for us to fight. I think you have no doubts." The prince said with a smile.

"But the big fleet will act," said Tirpitz.

"So what about the action? They are at the northernmost end of the UK, and even if they receive information and set sail immediately, how long does it take for them to feel the southern part of the UK? It takes a long time for them to come by. If it is not for preparation in advance, then by the time they come, the daylily will be cold."

"That's good. Even if we take a step back, some of the fleets of the large fleet have been separated and deployed in the area between Betty and Jericho. This scale will not be very large. Maybe it's 4 to 6 dreadnoughts. But it doesn't matter. About 12 British warships are fighting against our 8 of the most elite battleships. Even if we can't beat them, it's okay to run away? The speed of the Hullgran class after the speed is above 25 knots! The British dreadnoughts cannot catch up at all, and even early battlecruisers like Invincible cannot catch up!"

"So, your opinion is that no matter how the British choose, it will not be too dangerous whether the large fleet will attack when the Queen-class fast battleship is not there, right?" The German Emperor felt that he had caught something very important...

"That's right, that's what it means. As long as you leave the three queens, the British will have very poor ability to restrict our operations in the southern part of the North Sea." The prince nodded.

"The situation is already very obvious now. When it is strategically beneficial to the German high seas fleet, simple counter-attacks can deal with the British. If the large fleet does not go south, the southern British waters will become the back garden of the high seas fleet. The Betty fleet has no effect. If it goes south, then the Hippel fleet can go north to clean up the blockade line, and the fast fleet with a maximum average speed of up to 27 knots! The possibility of the large British fleet trying to catch it is too small."

"What if the British had a God's perspective and discovered the actions of the two German fleets in the southern part of the United Kingdom and the northern part of the North Sea? Should the Jericho fleet go south to rescue Betty's fleet, or go north to deal with the erratic Hippel fleet? A fleet with a speed of 27 knots, it is almost impossible to track it with surface warships and submarines!" said the prince.

"Actually, I think it would be better for us to use the Hippel fleet to destroy the Betty fleet. They are faster and have a higher probability of biting their opponents." Tirpitz still had the idea of ​​how to severely damage his opponent.

"Actually, if the fleet is too large, it will be detrimental to weaken the British navy. If we only have 6 warships and the British have 7 ships, they will probably fight. If we send 12 ships and the British have only 7 ships, they will probably run. Whether they can fight depends on whether the opponent is willing to fight. If the entire high seas fleet appears, the first goal is too big, and second, Betty will definitely choose to avoid it. If it is just to deal with Betty's battlecruiser, we have an absolute advantage with the presence of five Bavarian-class battleships. With Hippel, we may scare away the opponent. Instead of doing this, it is better to let Hippel do something that he can do and other warships are not very convenient to do." The prince said.

The British are not fools. Although Betty is famous for fighting fiercely, the person who can climb to the title of Marshal of the British Empire is definitely a person with IQ. If Jutland did not have the mission of luring the enemy and the queens of the Thomas fleet behind him, wouldn’t it be a quest for death if Betty continued to fight after being killed by two battle patrols in seconds? Therefore, the prince thought that 5 to 8 warships were enough to wander off the British coast. If there were more, Betty would really scare him away. Of course, this was only used when the Queen was not here. If the Queen was there, Betty would not be afraid after being strengthened, and the prince would not easily disperse his troops and attack from two groups!

"This plan is too risky and too hasty." Although the prince thought he had said everything he should have said, Tirpitz was still very worried. Looking at the German Emperor's expression, he didn't seem to agree with it. After all, this plan is easy to say, but it is a bit difficult to do. If it is simply the Hippel fleet attacking, there is still some discussion. If the high seas fleet is dispatched, it will still take some time to talk.

It was not easy for Schell to convince the German Emperor to delegate command. Now, the situation is much better than in history, so the German Emperor naturally did not want to take risks with his precious fleet. In his opinion, if the ground could be fought well, a complete and powerful high seas fleet would definitely be an excellent bargaining weight for negotiations with the British! Therefore, the so-called source of the fleet is still in the German Emperor.

"If it follows my plan, there will be no risk to the High Seas Fleet. Trust me, I promise," Ruprecht said.

"This is not a question that anyone can guarantee, Ruprecht." Tirpitz stepped back and the German Emperor took the field in person.

"Why can't a reasonable plan and sufficient preparation be guaranteed? In fact, the battle we launched on land is more dangerous, but we are still fighting?" the prince asked back.

"That's different, Ruprecht."

"Is it because the land power countries are born with fear of sea power? They look forward to the ocean, but are afraid of the challenges brought by the ocean. Because they have a way out for land power, they are reluctant to fight, unlike the ocean countries, who have only the ocean, dare to fight and fight? If the British hold on to our current ideas, then it is impossible for him to pull Spain off the throne of the maritime overlord." The prince's words were filled with dissatisfaction.
