"General Betty has no choice. Such failure is something he cannot bear, nor is it that the battlecruiser can bear. I think General Betty will be a little selfish when dealing with this issue, but the number of German fast warships is beyond our imagination. If we cannot recover some situations in this operation, it will be very difficult for us to fight later." General Daff said carefully.&1t;/p>
General Duff's attitude is still very responsible for Betty's evaluation. First, Betty is an alternative existence in this already rigid British Royal Navy system. Maybe he is frivolous, maybe he has a bad temper, and even has a problem with his character, but it is undeniable that he is the "Fisher" in the fleet! He is a person who can make the troops full of enterprising spirit and courage. His fleet is full of fighting spirit, like a cheetah who can attack at all times. Of course, this time he was unlucky, and he encountered a group of lions...&1t;/p>
(This is also a historical fact. Although the author doesn't like the character Betty very much, he is indeed very enterprising and leading a squadron is pretty good.)&1t;/p>
But at the same time, his conceit or character also affected his swing. He cut off his arm. This is a very tragic, sometimes difficult to understand, but very effective thing. Duff believes that in the wrong situation, Jericho can do it, and the General is not afraid of taking responsibility. Even if this result may lead to his loss of this position, he can even be unable to overcome the fleet and the Admiral. Admiral Jericho's approach can be said to be conservative, but at the same time is at least safe. But is Betty? Then he can only laugh, he will not give up easily, and he will not take the initiative to take responsibility!&1t;/p>
"There is another telegram that says that the commander of the German fleet this time is an opponent we have never met before. How much do you know about the Crown Prince of Bavaria and Prince Ruprecht?" He had no choice but to worry about Jericho now. Instead of being simply anxious, it would be better to discuss some meaningful topics with his colleagues.&1t;/p>
"Opinion? I don't know what happened to the top European nobles, but from a military perspective, the prince seems to have not failed and is good at layout. From a naval perspective, I have always believed that the Japanese Navy was able to obtain four Asama-class armored cruisers back then, and the Germans did have reasons to do so."&1t;/p>
"And if it were put on the battlefield today, I think that all of us have been plotted. The first five times were Hippel's battle cruisers. Why did this time suddenly become Bavaria? All six Bavaria ships came out! I don't believe it was a coincidence!" Lieutenant General Duff said.&1t;/p>
"That's right, the Germans took several months to make arrangements. No, not a few months, the North Sea could not accommodate such a huge chess game. Think about it, if Su Xiong had not successfully broken through our blockade and entered the Indian Ocean with two fast battleships, we would not have had to send 4 Queen-class battleships across the ocean. As long as there were 4 Queen-class battleships, we could at least guarantee an unbeaten outcome! Even if we were facing 6 Bavarian-class battleships this time."&1t;/p>
"But now, the British fleet, which was originally clenched into a fist, was forced to disperse. The most reliable queens went to the Indian Ocean and would not be able to come back for a while. However, the Germans replaced Hippel's battle cruiser with the Bavarians. The war has not yet been fought, and we have lost. How can a rabbit win against a tiger? And I guess, if you receive a telegram from Germany from the German land and then complete the relevant preparations, it is almost time. They have gained a strategic advantage in their early layout and then given a fatal blow when we are weakest." Jericho said.&1t;/p>
"So what is the Hippel fleet doing now?" Duff's casual words made Jericho's cold sweat come out......&1t;/p>
"Yes, what is Hippel doing? Holding grass! What is Hippel doing? What are the other warships of the German High Seas Fleet doing?" Thinking of this, Jericho was like falling into an ice cave! The most elite battleship formations were all coming out, and the other warships were huddled at home? Anyway, Jericho didn't believe it! It was like fighting a monster. The great wizard and the hill came out with the three human magics to fight against the opponent, but they didn't even recruit militias! This was impossible!&1t;/p>
"I don't know, but we have not received any information from various cordons. If it were a large-scale fleet, we would not have no information." The chief of staff said affirmatively.&1t;/p>
Although the high seas fleet is not as big as the big fleet, if it is really decided to fight, it is still possible to have hundreds of warships together. How can such a large fleet be hidden? Jericho looked up at the sky. The weather is good today. If everyone sets up the formation, Jericho promises to fight Schell so hard that he can't find North. This also means that the Germans want to avoid the airships in the sky, light cruisers and destroyers on the sea, and submarines in the water, are basically impossible. After all, the young men of the Harrich fleet are even more familiar with the situation at the doorstep of the German North Sea than the Shetland Islands. After all, they have been wandering around for several months.&1t;/p>
"Maybe the Germans plan to make a profit and leave? Although the ship coming was not a battle cruiser, the Bavarian-class battleships were obviously beyond our queen and were not slower than the first battle cruiser." Lieutenant General Duff said in a guessing tone.&1t;/p>
"They have made a lot of money! The biggest trouble that Betty's fleet has caused to the Germans so far is that they consume their ammunition! If possible, I hope Lieutenant General Geram can rescue Betty's remaining battleships and turn around and leave the battlefield." Jericho said. "Send another telegram to Betty and Geram to explain what I mean."&1t;/p>
"What about the Admiralty? They may not accept it." Lieutenant General Duff said with some concern.&1t;/p>
"Fisher to tm! What is the warship he advocated?! It's not even the Japanese like!" Jericho suddenly exploded. Not long ago, the two queens of Thomas' fleet made their export warships half dead. Now the so-called "perfect cats" directly sent two ships in seconds! When did the British Empire warships become so unbearable?! Jericho decided that after the end of this battle, he would have a good talk with Fisher. And if possible, he hoped that the top leaders of the British government would express their "distrust" in Fisher!&1t;/p>
