Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III
Chapter 176
“Gentlemen, the annexation of the Kingdom of Danmai by the Germans is not good news for the Empire. This has made their coastline grow a lot. It can be said that the entire coastline of the eastern part of the North Sea is already in the hands of the Germans. It is already very difficult for us to continue to block the coastline of the Germans! Lord of the Admiralty, Sir John Fisher, frowned.
“Your Excellency, in any case, the coastline of the Germanic Empire must be blocked, so that the Germans cannot resume maritime trade. That way, their war machine will be able to operate at full capacity, and the war potential will be fully exploded. This is going to be very scary for us. It means that if we want to defeat them and win the war, it will be very difficult! Prime Minister Asquith looked serious.
The other cabinet ministers also nodded their heads one after another.
“Your Excellency, Prime Ministers, the Royal Navy will send more ships to block the Germanic coastline. But even with all our efforts, there will always be holes along the long coastline. It will be very difficult to completely block them. This meant that more Germanic warships and submarines would slip into the North Sea, and even into the Atlantic, to launch a trail on the empire’s sea transport routes. “Sir John Fisher gave everyone a vaccination in advance.
Everyone’s faces suddenly became very ugly, which would indeed be a very serious blow to the Sun Never Set Empire!
“Sir, how can this problem be solved? Could the Royal Navy look for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the Germans and defeat them in one fell swoop? Prime Minister Asquith asked.
If they can defeat the Germanic Imperial Navy in one fell swoop and destroy their main force. Then, this problem is naturally solved once and for all.
“Your Excellency, the key now is not whether we want to fight a decisive battle with the Germans, but whether the Germans give us this opportunity. Their main fleet stayed at the Kiel Harbor naval base, as well as other bases in the Baltic Sea. Our fleet, it is impossible to slip into the Baltic. This is especially true when the Germans have already annexed the kingdom of Danmai. The Germans also had a number of capital ships under construction. It is very likely that they will wait for these capital ships to be built before they will fight us decisively. Therefore, the empire must also increase its investment in the Royal Navy. Only then can the Royal Navy continue to maintain a greater advantage over the Germanic Empire! Sir John Fisher had a smile on his lips.
The reason why he raised this point, asking the cabinet for more military spending and building more warships, is a very important purpose.
Although, on the slipway of the Royal Navy of the Empire, there are already many warships under construction. But Sir John Fisher still felt it wasn’t enough.
Prime Minister Asquith and the others couldn’t help but frown, they were not fools, they naturally understood this.
However, this is a time of war, and it is necessary to strengthen the Royal Navy.
Otherwise, once the sun never sets, the Royal Navy of the Empire is defeated in the war. Then, this is undoubtedly the biggest problem for the Sun Never Sets Empire.
“Sir, the Imperial Cabinet will find a way to squeeze out some more funds for the Royal Navy. The Royal Navy must do everything in its power to defeat the Germans! Prime Minister Asquith said.
“Of course, Your Excellency Prime Minister, there is absolutely no problem with this. The Royal Navy is the most powerful navy in the world! Sir John Fisher replied immediately.
He is already planning what warships the Royal Navy of the Empire will build next after getting additional military expenses.
In the Royal Navy’s planning, the ‘Nelson-class’ battleships should start construction as soon as possible. In addition, the construction of the ‘Admiral-class’ battle cruisers will also begin. Even the N3-class battleships and G3-class battlecruisers that they are still planning can be put on the agenda.
Once this goal is accomplished, the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets Empire is definitely the most powerful navy, and it definitely has enough strength to deal with the Germanic Imperial Navy.
“Your Excellency, Sir, hasn’t the Royal Navy captured the Germanic Far East Fleet yet?” Prime Minister Asquith asked.
Sir John Fisher’s expression suddenly became a little unnatural.
The Far East Fleet of the Germanic Imperial Navy seemed to have disappeared, and no longer attacked the transport fleet of the Empire that never sets.
However, they can be sure that the Far East Fleet of the Germanic Imperial Navy still exists.
For this reason, the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Set Empire almost turned over the Tianzhu Ocean, but still could not find the other party.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, we have intensified our search for the Far Eastern Fleet of the Germans. We now have reason to believe that the Germanic Far Eastern Fleet has left the Tianzhu Ocean and entered the Pacific or Atlantic Ocean.
If they fled to the Pacific, that’s it. The Pacific Ocean is vast, and it is not easy to find them. However, the Far Eastern Fleet of the Germans lacked supplies, and their overseas colonies had already fallen into the hands of us and our allies. Sooner or later they will be trapped.
If they dare to enter the Atlantic, it is even more looking for death. The Royal Navy intensified its search for the Atlantic. If they dare to enter the Atlantic, they will definitely die! ”
Sir John Fisher said through gritted teeth.
You know, in order to strengthen the defense of the Atlantic, the Imperial Navy that never sets can be described as a lot of effort. Even three ‘Invincible-class’ battle cruisers have already been dispatched.
Once the Far East Fleet of the Germanic Imperial Navy is captured, it can definitely destroy the entire Far East Fleet of the Germanic Imperial Navy in one fell swoop.
After all, the 305-mm main gun of the ‘Invincible-class’ battle cruisers is definitely not something that heavy cruisers and light cruisers can withstand.
At this point, the Royal Navy of the Empire is still very confident.
Prime Minister Asquith nodded: “Very good, we must not only solve the Far East Fleet of the Germans, but also increase the attack on the submarines of the Germans to ensure the safety of the empire’s sea transportation lines.” Only in this way can the empire be guaranteed to win this war. This war is extremely important to the empire, and we must not lose! ”
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!” Sir John Fisher replied.
The other high-ranking officials of the Sun Never Set Empire were also full of confidence.
Even if the start is not good for them, they still believe that they will win in the future.
