Chapter 1106： Stalemate (1/2)
Chapter 1106
Of course, it is impossible to contact the main force of the High Seas Fleet now, and even if they are connected, it is difficult for them to support themselves in a short time when the High Seas Fleet is performing missions in the Baltic Sea. If there is no response from the High Seas Fleet, then they I definitely can't go home!
In this chaotic situation, Colonel Lefetzoff would rather take a while and evacuate to the depths of the Norwegian Sea than to go back in a hurry now. Going back now is tantamount to throwing himself into the net. To some extent, time should It was on their side that the British attacked ahead of time. This time the British fast fleet will definitely attack the entire army, and the large fleet may move. The British were at their best from the start.
And Germany. Although there is no telegram, the German navy will definitely realize that this attack has encountered difficulties. If General Hipper gets in touch with the prince, it is still possible to concentrate the main force of the high seas fleet to respond to it. At that time, although the British navy was still stronger, with the help of the high seas fleet, the chances of going back by yourself would be greater.
The colonel needs to do two things now. The first thing is to hide himself in the waves of the Norwegian Sea. The second thing is to understand how many warships the other side has participated in the siege and their approximate locations. The third thing is to find ways to contact the headquarters.
Realizing this, the colonel decisively evacuated to the depths of the Norwegian Sea. And at this time, the two battleships of the Second Squadron, the USS Queen’s battleship Warrior and the light cruiser of the USS Prestige, discovered the German fleet that was evacuating north. At this time, if someone opened the God’s perspective, they would find it. The Thomas Fleet deployed to the northeast of the German fleet, the Second Squadron deployed to the west, and the Third Squadron deployed there, are gradually encircling their opponents!
At the same time, they rushed from the west, northeast and south. At this time, if the German fleet dared to go south, it would have to hehe. It is inevitable to hit one fleet, and it is possible to hit two fleets! Want to run away after hitting again this time? The difficulty is great! Is there enough manpower to shovel coal? Will there be problems with machinery running at high speed for a long time? Is there enough fuel? Will the fleet directly besieged and intercepted be injured? After analyzing the incident, Thomas believed that if the Germans go south, the battle will probably end today. Even if it is delayed until tomorrow, the two wounded German warships will never return to the North Sea. After all, there is one more German warship. The queen and 3 battle cruisers are waiting for you! Thomas is now full of good cards!
”The German fleet is withdrawing to the north?” Thomas was a little frustrated after receiving the report. ”It seems that we met a master this time! Being able to restrain the desire to go home continues to circle with us. It is not easy.”
”So what do we do next?” an officer asked.
”Stay steady, General Moore's Fourth Squadron and its subordinate reconnaissance force showed me the entrance and exit of the North Sea. Then our three squadrons slowly accompany them to play! The German High Seas Fleet has not yet gathered, short There will be no reaction within time. With the guts of General von Boll and Tirpitz, even if they know that the two battle cruisers have an accident, they may not dare to come out to respond. It does not matter if they come out. The large fleet of Jericho will take care of it. , We only need to be able to catch these two battlecruisers.” Thomas easily patted the other's shoulder and said.
However, he knew that things had become more complicated now, and he really didn't know how long he would entangle with the Germans in the Norwegian Sea this time!
