The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1478 Storm is surging (1)

"It's really dangerous to hold the grass. If you are not careful, maybe we ran into the Spey fleet!" The news that a British squadron was annihilated by the Spey fleet soon came out. The so-called same thing, Some were happy and some were worried. The British were in trouble and were killed by the Allied fleet, 4 battleships, 2 cruisers, and a large number of destroyers, but for the other French fleet, it was indeed very lucky. At 30 kilometers away, another French fleet is also heading north. The commander of this fleet is Major General Cenes of the French Navy, and he is commanding the second strongest fleet of the French Navy here! There are three Dandong-class battleships under him!

If Earl Spey knew that there was such a fat sheep not far from him, he would probably regret it. After all, the gold content of these three Dandong-class battleships is much stronger than that of the British parallel cargo. The Dandong class on the side can be called a dreadnought warship, because it is the same as the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s Laditz class battleship. The dual 240mm artillery is replaced by a single 12-inch artillery. In this way, the sidestring firepower is reached. Seven 12-inch guns and the fire control system can keep up. It is not too much to call it fearless.

Senes came a little later. When the battle between the Spey Fleet and the British came to an end, the three Dandong-class battleships had just arrived. The distance between the two sides was about 25 kilometers at the time. If the effective combat distance of 10 kilometers is calculated, the French fleet will have to travel 15 kilometers, which is about 20 to 30 minutes to bring the opponent into the range.

It was not that Major General Senes had never thought of going up to help the British, but when he continued to approach, the battle was over, and the scene of Earl Spey's 4 super fearless salvos really scared Major General Senes! This is properly super fearless. In his opinion, the Germans have at least three super fearless ships! Going up now is to deliver food. When the German fleet attacked the port, it also left a guard force, so he could only watch the Spey fleet's attack on the port, and Major General Senes chose to keep his distance.

However, after this battle, Major General Cenes finally confirmed the size of the German fleet, so he wrote in a telegram to Lieutenant General Lebris. "This time the German fleet sent at least 3 super fearless, along with about 3 pre-daunts, and a large number of destroyers and torpedo boats."

"Hehe, how dare the Germans attack the island of Chios?" Looking at the telegrams just obtained from various channels, Admiral Lebris' nervous laughter sounded from the command tower of the Brestag. On the one hand, it was angry, and on the other hand, it was naturally surprised at the actions of the German fleet.

"They really don't put us in their eyes!" Lieutenant General Lebris returned to the chart: "In this case, then come, don't leave, if you just call a place and choose to go home , I naturally can't help you, but now, when you come, don’t leave."

"Report to Sir Fisher and ask them how long it will take to come over and make them faster. We will stop them at the exit of the Dardanelles! Then make a break!" Lieutenant General Lebris said.

"At night, it is difficult for us to catch the enemy, but if it is daytime, the Bavarian Air Force will definitely come to respond. In fact, to Chios Island is the combat radius of the Bavarian Air Force bombers. We will attack the Luftwaffe by bombs and torpedo Fight against the Spey fleet!" An officer said with some worry.

"It doesn't matter, Mitilini has at least 4 squadrons of fighters. They can help us block the first wave, and then mobilize some aircraft from other places, at least it can weaken the Bavarian Air Force's strike capability. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ! We can solve the Mediterranean problem once and for all, of course, we have to bear a certain sacrifice." Lieutenant General Lebris said firmly.

"The French are going to play the big ones." After reading the telegram from the French in his hand, Sir Fisher handed it to the doctor major general.

"This time, judging from the number of surface battleships, we almost have an absolute advantage. The German fleet should not have much ammunition, and our two fleets have 8 ultra-daunted ships, even if the opponent is 4 Bavarian-class battleships. It’s definitely not our opponent.” Major General Duff paused and continued: “The only question now is the air force. Do we have the ability to block the German bombers?” To be honest, in the Bavarian bomber unit in the Gulf of Riga. The perception of the world navy in a battle is subversive! With this battle example, no fleet dares to despise this strategic force of the Bavarian Air Force!

"This problem is not what we want to solve. We have already notified Admiral Trenchard about the situation. He is responsible for the movement of the air force. They will give us a reply before dawn!" Sir Fisher said in his heart. An awkwardness, if the Royal Navy does not have its own air force, it would be really difficult to adapt to it!

"So what are we now?" Major General Duff asked.

"It is natural to accelerate the meeting with the French~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Not only us, but also order other fleets to quickly move to the designated location." Sir Fisher said.

And at this moment, in addition to the 2 units commanded by Lieutenant General Lebris and Sir Fisher, there are 8 super-intrepid ships, and at least 4 fleets rushed to the battlefield from different directions. If you count the number of these fleets For the former dreadnought battleship, then at least have more than a dozen former dreadnought battleships and more than ten thousand tons of armored cruisers! With the passage of time, the entire northern part of the Aegean Sea was covered by dense radio waves, and the number of active radio stations reached an unprecedented peak. Not only were warships at sea, but with the development of this large network, radio stations belonging to the Allied Air Forces also Start running at full speed!

"His Royal Highness, Earl Spey seems to be in trouble." Calipt delivered the latest telegram to the prince. "The British and French fleets decided to contain the Earl's fleet at all costs, and their air force was activated. From the current situation, our air force alone may not be enough." Although the air force's strike effect is good, I think Think, there are more than 20 dreadnought and former dreadnought fleets on the sea, as well as a large number of cruisers and destroyers, and at least more than 100 British fighters to provide cover. This is not something that the Second Bavarian Air Force can eat!
