Chapter 1098

"It's still careless," the prince said. Then, the prince noticed that this time the British fleet itself did not seem to be acting, and the main force of the fleet is still anchored in Forth Bay. This seems to the prince to deter the German high seas fleet. After all, relying on high speed, the German battle patrol still has the opportunity to break through the blockade and enter the North Sea. If the High Seas Fleet went out to meet up at this time, then the siege of the British Fast Fleet would have completely failed, and maybe they would even take themselves in. After all, the queens could not run the fast battleships of Bavaria and Helgeland!

The large fleet has not moved, so it can only explain one problem. Thomas who executed the siege should have not found the German battlecruiser squadron. The prince can guess the general idea of ​​the British. If two German battlecruisers are found, the Thomas Fleet will naturally act immediately to siege, and the main force of the large fleet may approach the German coast to perform oppressive cruises on the high seas fleet.

And for the British fleet blocking the door? How should I put it, the prince has no idea... The British fleet has at least 6 battleship squads, and two dozen or more battleships and battlecruisers are swung out, so that the prince currently has no idea of ​​hard work.

"The situation is very troublesome now. Send a telegram to Tirpitz and Admiral von Boll, asking them to send a submarine force to strengthen the detection and control of the North Sea area, and prepare to activate the backup radio communication frequency band." The prince thought for a while. Said. In fact, the prince is still prepared for the British radio reconnaissance technology. The German High Seas Fleet’s battleship communication equipment has reserved some special communication frequency bands. Special parts need to be replaced before use. The prince is not sure that the British will not be able to detect, but In the initial stage of use, this system should be able to ensure smooth communication. Of course, the prince is not sure what the state of the two battlecruisers out there.

Before the two British battlecruisers used alternate channels, the High Seas Fleet could not do much now, and at most it would conduct limited reconnaissance and search. It may not be easy to do other things.

"Marshal Tirpitz sent a telegram. He thinks that if the British do this, will they plan to fight us?" The admiral liaison officer next to him whispered.

"Huh?!" Hearing these words, the prince immediately felt cold. A few drops of cold sweat remained on the neck. "Fuck! Don't tell me, it's really possible!" The prince shook his heart. Tirpitz's comments this time may have some ideas of his own, for example, he is unwilling to let the prince arrive in Wilhelmshaven and take over. After the command, he went out recklessly. But his statement does have some truth.

After all, the location of the two German battlecruisers should be in the Norwegian Sea. If the high seas fleet goes to meet in the Norwegian Sea, there is a certain risk if the high seas fleet is lighter, and the point is to kill. If you dare to go out at such a long distance, you have to be prepared to be intercepted by the British fleet and then fight.

"Bring me the situation of the British fast fleet. Including the battlecruisers attached to the main fleet." The prince thought for a while and said.

"The British Navy has six battlecruisers. Except for one Tiger, the remaining five are dreadnought battlecruisers. The British divided these battleships into two groups. The other two Tigers are newer. The battlecruisers are grouped into a group to be assigned to the new British fast fleet. The other three old battlecruisers follow the large fleet as a reconnaissance force."

"The British learned the lesson of the lack of combat effectiveness of the fast battleship squadron last time, so they assigned all the Queen-class battleships to the fast fleet. The current commander is Lieutenant General Ivan Thomas. He led the team to hunt down Su Xiong in the Indian Ocean. General's. Almost succeeded."

"At present, according to our speculation, Thomas’s fast fleet should be composed of 7 Queen Elizabeth-class battleships and 3 battlecruisers. The strength is much stronger than the previous Betty fleet. The generals believe that if we really want to fight our two ships. If the cruisers start, then they will be the main force." A navy officer introduced.

"That's it." The prince stroked his chin. According to historical circumstances, Thomas’ queens are attached to the Grand Fleet. Therefore, the Grand Fleet has the power to crush the High Seas Fleet. This time, although the prince thought that after the Betty Fleet was severely damaged, the Grand Fleet would definitely give blood to the Fast Fleet in order to build a new Fast Fleet, but he did not expect that this time Jie Rico was so bold that he handed over all the queens... What did the prince think, he had to keep two for himself. Which of the first-generation battlecruisers were used at ease? If this is the case, the superiority of the large fleet seems.... Some are not big anymore? !

The prince could feel a wave of shaking in his heart! At this moment, he really had the idea of ​​taking the high seas fleet out to try. But randomly killed again. Carefully calculate, even without the queen, there are still Vengeance-class battleships. Moreover, the battle with the large fleet definitely cannot end in an hour or two. What if the queen rushes up again when the two sides can't get out of the fight together... Although the benefits are great, the risks seem to be greater!

"Report to Marshal Tirpitz and General von Boll, let them arrange a squadron to see if Denmark can go." The prince said. If you want to return to the mainland of Germany~lightnovelpub.net~, you can naturally choose to go back directly from the North Sea, and take the Skagerako Strait, which is also a way to pass through the waters between Denmark and Norway. If possible, the prince can consider receiving the returned battlecruiser here.

"Marshal Tirpitz asks you, will the fleet have major operations in the next few days?" Major General Hall asked with a telegram.

"Tell Tirpitz, let him rest assured that I am not a reckless person. I will not act rashly until the two battlecruisers send information through the alternate communication channel, but the state of the fleet must be good. I will give him a maximum of 3 In days, I need more than 95% of the warships of the High Seas Fleet to go out to sea quickly when necessary,” said the prince.

"Hey, now it mainly depends on the level of the captains of these two battlecruisers." The prince said after putting down the information in his hand. On the whole, this game has just begun. The German navy does not know the arrangement and situation of the other party. It is not good to be unsolicited. The prince now needs to know where his fleet is, how many British warships are involved in the siege, and it is best to establish between them. contact. Only in this way can the two battlecruisers be targeted.
