Chapter 688: War is for politics

"Your Excellency, we can't fight anymore. If we fight again, these ships will be buried here in vain." On the Xiong Roe, Lieutenant General Perez said anxiously.

  

   Although Lieutenant General Sebastian didn't say anything, the anxious look on his face clearly showed his mood.

  

   The two deputy commanders of the joint fleet were completely frightened by the firepower of the two steel battleships of the Yanhuang Fleet. They also never expected that this almost gambling battle would be in such a one-sided crushing state.

  

   It's a pity that they are the target of being crushed...

  

  Whether it is France or Spain, after the brutal battle of the fortress of Gibraltar, the number of its naval warships has shrunk significantly. They don't want to bury the limited precious warships in this kind of naval battle that now seems beyond doubt.

  

  As the commander of the combined fleet, although Admiral Abbasnot did not change his face, in fact he was bleeding in his heart now.

  

  Among the six warships that were sunk, there was one second-class ship of the Royal Navy. Although this second-tier ship has been launched for more than 20 years, it is an out-and-out old ship, and its performance is not even as good as that of the third-tier ships newly launched in recent years, but it is a second-tier ship after all. A second-class ship worth hundreds of thousands of pounds!

  

   At that time, His Majesty George III only spent 34,000 pounds on Buckingham Palace, and the cost of a second-class sailing battleship was enough to buy twenty Buckingham Palace!

  

   But such an expensive battleship was ruined here in vain. If Abbasnot said that he was not distressed, it would be absolutely nonsense.

  

   It's just that Abbasnot can't order the white flag to be raised, because Abbasnot is not only a senior navy general, he is also a senior politician, he knows that war is for politics. When political demands arise, war is the best way to resolve demands.

  

Now Britain has become nasty with the Yanhuang tribe in matters of the United States. Now Britain has a strong demand on the political level, but it is not possible for the United Kingdom to tear its face with the Yanhuang tribe. After all, Abbasnot also read that document. He knew very well what His Majesty the King was thinking.

  

   In His Majesty’s thoughts, the Thirteen Colonies have been lost anyway, but continuing to exert a huge influence on the independent United States is the current bottom line of the British authorities.

  

   I cannot prevent you from becoming independent, but after you become independent, whether it is business or diplomacy, you must be led by the United Kingdom.

  

   This is what the UK must do, because the UK still wants to continue to obtain huge benefits from North America.

  

   But now a more powerful Yanhuang tribe has jumped out, resolutely opposed to American independence, and promised that if Britain abandons the United States, it will gain greater benefits from the Yanhuang tribe.

  

   This situation makes His Majesty very contradictory. The strength of the Yanhuang tribe is unquestionable, but His Majesty felt that if the whole of Britain was devoted to defeating that indigenous tribe, there would be no problem.

  

   But if you do that, it will inevitably plunge Britain into a bottomless abyss if the economic situation is not so good. An independence war almost dragged down Britain. If there is another more powerful Yanhuang tribe...

  

   But just abandoning the United States, this is obviously not in line with the interests of the United Kingdom.

  

  Under such circumstances, the combined fleet appeared.

  

   Abbasnot very clearly remembered the words His Majesty the King had personally said to himself before he set out-this time out, the protection of the interests of the United Kingdom must be the first priority. If you encounter any problems, you and Cirencester must discuss a good solution. As for who to choose between the American and Yanhuang tribes, it depends on the performance of both of them. Whoever is strong will attack whoever is strong, and help the weaker one, but we must control it well. Don't cause too much damage to the fleet...

  

   Obviously, although His Majesty the King hesitated, he still had a choice, which was to choose a stronger one between the two to strike and win over the weaker. After all, what Britain needs now is control. A regime that is too powerful to be controlled is not in British interest.

  

   Of course, there is another meaning in His Majesty's words. Although His Majesty did not say it clearly, Abbasnot understands that if the Yanhuang tribe is really strong and irresistible, it is not impossible to give up America.

  

   On the way here, Abbasnot and Cirencester discussed more than a dozen times, and then the two unanimously decided to look at the situation of both sides before making a final decision. Of course, the two have discussed a lot of countermeasures in advance, and choose different countermeasures according to different situations.

  

When the combined fleet came to Boston, Abbasnot and Cirencester meant to negotiate with the Yanhuang tribe and the American Federation first. What they did not expect was that they encountered a rabbit mouth like the stupid child. .

  

   Under the stimulus of a few words in the rabbit’s mouth, this gambling fight just happened.

  

   Well, actually using gambling to resolve disputes is something that Abbasnot and Cirencester anticipated in advance, and they also formulated corresponding countermeasures.

  

   It’s just that neither Abbasnot nor Cirencester thought that the Yanhuang tribe’s battleship would be so powerful.

  

   Not only the two deputy commanders of the fleet could not hold up the scene before him, but also Abbasnot and Cirencester.

  

Even if Cirencester does not understand naval warfare, he still knows the current situation very well. If he continues to rush forward, it is estimated that the twenty ships of the combined fleet have not rushed into the range of the naval guns. Were sunk by those two powerful warships.

  

   Although I don't believe what happened in front of me, the truth is so cruel.

  

   The twenty warships of the combined fleet are about to be crushed to dust...

  

   Abbasnot looked at Cirencester who was pale. Although Cirencester was reluctant, he finally nodded helplessly.

  

   Just the loss of this period of time has already made the adjutant of His Majesty the King unbearable. If we continue ~ lightnovelpub.net~ even if this mission can be completed, he will be dismissed when he goes back.

  

The situation is stronger than people. Even if you are as proud as the Earl of Cirencester, you have to admit this fact under your head. The strength of the Yanhuang tribe is beyond anyone's imagination. This kind of strength is no longer what joint supervision can resist, even I am afraid that even the United Kingdom will not be able to resist this kind of power.

  

   So, bowing your head is inevitable.

  

   Abbasnot gave an order to raise the white flag to the adjutant. The next moment, a huge white flag was raised on several ships outside the combined fleet.

  

   After seeing the white flag rising from behind, Lager, who had been biting his head, finally took a long breath and immediately ordered the white flag to be angry and lower the sail.

  

   This kind of battle is impossible to fight at all. Well, this is not a battle at all, this is purely giving away the head!

  

   Compared to the idea of ​​vowing to avenge his old friend before leaving, Lager just wants to go home and find his mother quickly. Fighting against such a terrifying battleship is simply looking for abuse...
