Chapter 1098： Guess and infer (1/2)
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.”
