"According to General Moore's telegram, they did not fight with their opponents for a long time, which was about 20 minutes. During this period, New Zealand and Australia used up almost all the cigarette cans, and the destroyer also threw away all the torpedoes." Jericho explained in a vague way why the Moore fleet survived.&1t;/p>

"Destroyer, destroyer fleet! Hold the grass, where is Betty's destroyer?!" At this time, Major General Duff remembered that there were more than 2 dozen destroyers and one dozen light cruisers going out with Betty! And now, in addition to these embarrassing and shaky main ships, the remaining kittens are less than 2 digits together! "Maybe they will go back to the port first?" Duff found a very bad reason.&1t;/p>

"There is a destroyer brigade that seems to be full of war. This is an absolute disaster. Gentlemen! Let us face new challenges! The glory of the Royal Navy cannot be lost in us. Nelson, Drake and other ancestors are watching us in heaven! We have not experienced failures. The only difference between us and our opponents is that if we lose, we can stand up again, and if the opponent loses, it is all over!" Admiral Jericho, who has always given people a sense of peace and strength, said loudly.&1t;/p>

"Move now! Help those of us who have just experienced this war return home smoothly! Let's go to the base of Roses together! And let all the major general and above officers who participated in this battle come to my flagship immediately, and I need to deal with some things." Jericho said.&1t;/p>

Half an hour later, the four fleet chiefs, Betty, Geram, Hood, and Moore, arrived at General Jericho's flagship Iron Duke in a traffic boat. Looking at these generals with pale faces and murderous aura, the adjutant in charge of hospitality immediately ran away after giving each person a cup of coffee and hot chocolate. These guys, who were originally carnivorous, were even more terrifying and uneasy after experiencing a war, as if a sword had been cut off!&1t;/p>

"Let's have a cup of coffee first. This is what I specially prepared for myself. It has a very special name called Death Wish. The caffeine content is twice that of ordinary coffee. Just a small cup, you will suffer from insomnia for a few nights. I think you probably won't think about having a good sleep in the recent period. We have a lot of work to deal with. So, drink a cup of coffee to refresh yourself." After saying that, Jericho glanced at the people present and drank the coffee in his hands.&1t;/p>

Jericho's eyes swept across everyone present one by one. Betty's anger and unwillingness, Geram's solemnity and worry, Moore's helplessness and loneliness, and Hood's perseverance all fell into Jericho's eyes, "Well, very good, although we lost, our spirit did not collapse!" Jericho gave everyone present a thumbs up in his heart, it was just a mental performance. In the end, how to deal with tactical and combat mistakes, how to deal with them......&1t;/p>

"I have a document in my hand that describes the battle process. I hope everyone here can see if there are any missing." Jericho said.&1t;/p>

Fifteen minutes later, when Betty closed the document in his hand, Jericho asked again: "If there is no doubt, then I want to know why General Betty, before the German fleet appeared and fought with it, the four fearless battle cruisers, Lion, Tiger, Queen Mary, and Grand Princess, wanted to leave the formation? Answer me!" Jericho's words implicitly had anger!&1t;/p>

"I began to think they were Hippel fleets, so I wanted to hold them back. Hippel only had 5 battlecruisers, of which Fearless were 3. I originally thought that even if my four battleships could not defeat their opponents, they could at least hold them back. The flight between General Moore and I was only 2 to 3 quarters apart, and General Moore would be able to keep up soon." Betty said with a pale face.&1t;/p>

"My fleet did follow General Betty quickly, but at that time, we were defeated. Before the German battle line unfolded, we could not even be sure how many main battleships the opponent had. This time, there were many German frigates, and there were three squadrons of light cruisers, and there were at least three more destroyers! Neither we nor the Harric fleet could penetrate their outer cordon for close reconnaissance. This was impossible." Looking at the chief officer next to him, Major General Moore said.&1t;/p>

"Yes, it's Tyrit! (Commander of Harrich Fleet) He has two destroyer brigades, a total of 8 squads and 32 destroyers! But he failed to figure out the other party's fleet formation. This is an untolerable failure. He should go to the military court!" Betty suddenly shouted. (In fact, from history, Betty is really not a good person, and it is normal to shirk responsibility and turn the blame.)&1t;/p>

"Brother General Tyrit has no responsibility. His fleet is scattered investigation. He sent out the information about the enemy ships at the first time. The entire German fleet sailed around 24 knots, with three light cruiser formations and 40 destroyers following. Brigadier Tyrit could not pass through layers of blockades to make the model and number of the German fleet so clear." Jericho stared at Betty, with a hint of disgust hidden in his eyes.&1t;/p>

"General Betty, you can keep your opinion, but I will never admit in any report that the Harric fleet has subjective errors." Finally, Jericho added.&1t;/p>

"Lt. General Geram and Major General Hood, what do you think? Let's see, Betty's fleet has been dispersed, and you and General Hood have fought a battle of at least in terms of quantity with each other." After Jericho said that, he no longer looked at Betty on the left, but turned his attention to other people.&1t;/p>

"The opponent has a total of 6 Bavarian-class battleships participating in the battle, but the artillery level of the two warships behind them is relatively low, which is probably one of the main reasons why my fleet can survive. To be honest, if the same number of warships are fighting, any of our warships will not last for more than an hour in front of the battleships of the USS Bavaria!" Major General Hood said with a wry smile. Major General Hood's guess was only half right. The poor artillery skills of Hessen and Mecklenburg were one reason, but the most important reason is that the number of armor-piercing bombs on the two warships is not enough......&1t;/p>

"Is it even a queen?" Jericho said calmly although he was a little surprised.&1t;/p>
