"His Royal Highness, Colonel Peric is here, do you wait a minute or now?" After the dinner, Ruprecht accompanied his father and cousin as usual. No matter what, everyone is relatives, and they are still interested. Very close kind!

　　 "Father, Your Royal Highness." Ruprecht did not hesitate at all and got up to leave.

　　 "Business matters." Princess Mary is very big, but her Royal Highness next to her is a bit dissatisfied, I don't know if it is pretending, or really dissatisfied! But these things have nothing to do with Ruprecht, now the most important thing is those who are fighting far away!

　　 "How are our comrades in arms now?" Ruprecht asked in a room.

"Very bad, the Dingyuan ironclad ship accidentally ran into a mine when it was sailing out of the port, and the Zhiyuan was sunk in an encounter. Except for the Zhenyuan which is still Weihai, the entire Beiyang fleet has only one Maine. The Ci continues to fight at sea, but the current situation is also very bad."

"The British are telling the Japanese that the Yellow Sea is too small after all. Although the East China Sea and the coastal areas of Japan have a greater range of maneuverability, the boilers that have not been repaired for a long time obviously cannot support the warships to continue the high-intensity battle! According to one contact, the maximum speed of the cruiser Mainz has dropped to 15 knots. If it engages again, it may not be able to escape!" Colonel Perich said.

　　 "What does the Admiralty mean?" Ruprecht asked. Colonel Peric is a member of the Prussian military delegation in Bavaria, and at Ruprecht's request, he is now also acting as an intermediary between the new naval force represented by Tirpitz and His Royal Highness.

"They hope to end this battle as soon as possible. The boys have done well enough, but unfortunately, our power in the Far East is very weak. After the British provided intelligence to the Japanese, our supply ships were counted. After leaving the operation area for the first time, Mainz has been delayed twice in resupply, and now we don’t know where the warship is.” Colonel Peric said.

　　 "Where are the Russians? Let them help find." Ruprecht said.

　　 "The Russians don't care about this. Their fleet is concentrated in Vladivostok. Damn, I know the Russians are unreliable!" Colonel Peric said annoyed.

　　 "If I were the leader of the navy! I would order me to keep up with the Japanese against the fleet! Let them know the possible consequences when they act!"

　　The German Admiralty is now planning to close. The Mainz has been sold to Beiyang, and it is impossible to be sunk, but the hundreds of German naval officers and soldiers above have been baptized by war! This is a precious intangible wealth! It must be kept.

　　 But the German navy's power in the Far East is very weak, it is very difficult to find a cruiser in the vast sea, and the Russians are obviously unreliable in this regard! So Ruprecht came up with this method! Nothing else!

　　 is a bit radical, but it is the easiest way to achieve!

The Japanese are absolutely afraid to fire first. The German staff and front-line staff are not as unreliable as the Japanese staff in history, and they will not fire first. The possibility of direct action by both parties is very small, and if they do, it is estimated that it is. The Japanese moved in. According to Ruprecht’s idea, the best result is that when the Mainz is unable to support its power, there is a chance to sink itself, and then let the other two German cruisers pick them up.

"I will convey your meaning to the Admiralty. To be honest, you can do so much for the comrades who have fought together. It is beyond my expectation. In the hearts of all the naval officers and soldiers who have fought side by side with you, you are no longer A prince, but a comrade-in-arms who can entrust his back." Colonel Peric said respectfully.

Ruprecht did a lot. Before leaving the Far East, Ruprecht had already spent a lot of pounds to contact the best hospital in Qing Dynasty. In the first few rounds of supply, the injured could be quickly transferred to Shanghai. Hospitals in the concession or other places for treatment. In order to ensure the health of the soldiers, Ruprecht also paid for many supplies outside the specifications. He did everything he could, and Ruprecht also won the respect of his former comrades!

"Although it seems radical, it is not dangerous. The Japanese do not have the ability and ideas to confront us again. Their hunting fleet is no more than 4 cruisers. Except for the British cruiser, all other warships are We can't stand a blow, even if 2 vs. 4 is our advantage." The Navy Secretary of State reported to Bismarck. He is more inclined to the opinions put forward by Ruprecht, I can't find my own person, just can fix my opponent!

　　 I have to say that the series of operations of the German Navy in the Far East have indeed had a great impact in the country! The navy’s ability to protect overseas rights and interests and its status in national strategy has become more prominent. The Germans have seen the benefits of building a navy, but have also seen their own shortcomings. The call for expansion of the navy has increased day by day, while Bismarck has maintained its original position. The idea of ​​moderately building the navy. However, for those soldiers who fought for the empire, he still supports the solution with more tough methods!

　　 "Let's do this, by the way, inform the German Daily Ambassador that if something inhumane happens, the German fleet will definitely seek justice at sea!" Bismarck is Bismarck! In addition to solving problems with your fists, you are also considering the possibility of solving problems with your tongue. In the unlikely event that the end of the road is reached, after surrendering, these people can be saved!

"Colonel Scheer, this is an order of the Admiralty! Our fleet will follow the Japanese fleet to prevent some inhumane things from happening." On the cruiser Hamburg, an officer sent the information he just received to the commander of the German Far East Cruiser Squadron Scheer The colonel's hands.

　　 "Let's get started~lightnovelpub.net~ for our heroes to return to the Kiel Naval Port again!" Sher shouted after reading the telegram!

　　 "Long live the Empire! Long live the German Emperor! Long live the Imperial Navy!" With the cry of the soldiers, the two armored cruisers left Shanghai and began to think about sailing away.

　　 "The German moved!" Colonel Pal said to Major General Felimant next to him.

"Let the Apollo follow far away, and the rest has nothing to do with us." Major General Feilimante sighed. Now he only hopes that the Japanese will not do any more brain-dead things. Now it is even the UK. No one wants to protect the Japanese anymore!

　　 The German government promised to prevent Japan from doing things that violate the "bottom line of human morality." The British say that they can understand, and the synonym for understanding is compromise!

　　 And soon, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs also received a stern note from the German government! "When the German soldiers on the Beiyang battleship decide to abandon the battle, they will automatically restore the identity of the Imperial Navy! Any attack or insult after that will be regarded as a provocation to the Empire! The Imperial fleet is ready to use flames and Death strikes back at this provocation!"

"Tell Huashan Ziji that as long as the armored cruiser Mainz gives up resistance, it will stop shooting and allow the crew to evacuate. Finally, I will stress again! No prisoners can be tortured! Any! Whether it is a German or a Qing country!" Hirobumi Ito's words are calm with unquestionable majesty!

The second one is to offer~~~, ask for Sanjiang tickets, ask for collection~~~, some book friends said that the author wrote too much about Jiawu, how to say this, after all, those major events happened in the world at that time, and Europe was very Calm--! However, after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, nothing will happen to the Qing Dynasty in the next few hundred chapters. After all, what happened after the Qing Dynasty had little to do with the major powers.
