Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 1128: A far-reaching victory

Thinking of pitting teammates, then tragedy happened. As soon as the retreat signal was issued, the British and Japanese allied forces began to run back, and the battlefield was completely chaotic.

The speed of warships is not the same. After running at full power, the original combat formation immediately collapsed. Everyone was busy running for their lives, and no one was left behind.

Originally, I wanted to cheat his teammates, but I didn't expect that both sides wanted to go together. In the end, not only the teammates were cheated, but he was also cheated in by the way.

Defeated like a mountain, the British and Japanese allied forces contributed a "Escape at Sea" with practical actions.

In the distance, under the cover of the waves, probes were exposed from time to time, observing the entire battlefield.

For this war, they have been in ambush underwater all day and night, just waiting for this opportunity.

From the beginning of the battle, Major Wallace, as the captain, stared at the big screen, and did not dare to relax. It was not until the Anglo-Japanese coalition defeated that his nervous nerves relaxed.

The picture transmitted by the mirror image is not clear, but there is no problem in judging the enemy's position.

Seeing that the enemy's warship appeared within the attack range, the atmosphere inside the boat became tense again. Major Wallace said, "Let's let go of the little trash fish in front. Our task is to leave the enemy's capital ship!"

The Anglo-Japanese coalition forces who didn't know that there was a trap ahead, now only have one idea-run. You don't need to run too fast, just run past your teammates.

In terms of speed, the Royal Navy still has an advantage. The performance of the warships of the Far East Fleet is generally better than that of the Japanese Navy, and with more experience and skills, it will naturally be cheaper to run.

The fast-running warship rushed forward, and the slow-moving warship was forced to become a rear force. In this respect, we must thank the Japanese allies.

Fortunately, the Japanese warships that fell at the back were desperately resisting and bought time for the retreat. Otherwise, the warships that can run away by half are considered luck.

However, Admiral Michelle couldn't be happy. Although he opened the distance from the Shinra Navy, his flagship Elizabeth was spotted by enemy fighters.

Now there are more than a dozen fighter planes hovering overhead, and bombs are falling from time to time. Obviously, they will not be released if they are caught.

Not only the Elizabeth, but all the larger warships are now being taken care of.

Ants often kill elephants. This is not a joke. Just look at the Elizabeth at the moment, and it's completely battered.

One-third of the main gun could not be used, the casualties of officers and soldiers exceeded 200, and even the power system was affected.

Even if he ran back to Cam Ranh Bay, it would take at least a few months to repair it. In a short time, he didn't want to participate in the battle.

There was a swish.

"torpedo!"

I don't know who shouted, and then I heard a violent explosion. The destroyer hit by the bullet began to tear apart, sinking slowly.

Luckily escaped, the cold sweat of General Michelle stayed. The enemy in the sky has not been settled yet, and the enemy in the water has emerged again.

If it is other times, naturally you can pull the submarine out and kill it according to the direction; but not now, they are busy running for their lives, and there is no time to delay.

As if it had detonated the signal light, since the first torpedo fired and exploded, the explosion sounded again and again.

After almost every loud noise, there will be a good record. Seemingly aware of something, Admiral Michel hurriedly ordered: "The enemy has an ambush, order the fleet to disperse and break through!"

There is no way, the fleet evacuated in one direction in a swarm, just like putting the targets on the training ground together, even if it misses the No. 1 target, it can still hit the No. 2 and No. 3... targets.

Seeing the bad luck of the British warship running ahead, General Ito Yuhiro, who was behind, was not at all relieved, but his expression became more solemn.

At this point, if you don't know that you have been caught in the enemy's trap, you will live in vain.

The greater the British losses now, it means that the enemy is more prepared, and it also means that the probability of them running out is lower.

Akiyama Shinyuki proposed: "Your Excellency Commander, let's separate from the British! For this war, the empire has paid too much.

At this point, there is no need to tie up with the British. In the eyes of the enemy, we can only be regarded as small trash fish now. "

"Mysterious self-confidence", this time really not. It can be seen from the number of fighters overhead that the Far East Fleet has received significantly more care.

Such treatment is determined based on strength. Compared with the arrogant Royal Navy, the Japanese Navy is far inferior in terms of record and popularity.

The gap in hardware is even greater. The Japanese Navy is limited by domestic industries. Most of the main warships rely on outsourcing, and the localization is still far away.

A country whose military industry cannot be independent will naturally not be taken seriously. Not being taken seriously is not entirely a bad thing, at least the difficulty of running away is much lower.

Without waiting for General Ito Yuheng to make a decision, he only heard a loud "boom", and then the warship began to shake violently, and everyone in the command headquarters was also thrown to pieces.

"Shot!"

This was Ito's last consciousness before he fell into a coma.

...

The cruel battle continued. The warships that fell behind either surrendered or were sunk. The sea was filled with a large number of floating objects, and people were faintly visible.

Fortunately, the violent explosion sounded terrified the creatures in the sea, otherwise these hapless people who fell into the water would have fed the sharks at this moment.

Night rescued the remaining Anglo-Japanese coalition forces, but it was innocent. After this battle, the Far East Fleet and the Japanese Navy were abolished.

There are no battleships of more than ten thousand tons, and the losses of various auxiliary warships are countless. Most of the cruisers who ran out were faster cruisers. It was okay to break the relationship and attack the merchant ships. You don't have to think about changing things.

The **** battlefield did not affect Admiral Aleist's good mood. Such a straightforward victory completely exceeded his expectations.

"Order the fleet to stop the offensive, rescue the people who fell into the water, and count the losses."

The victor must have the victor's tolerance. Today's battle is over, and now it's time to capture the prisoners.

They are all excellent laborers, and they will need to shed blood and sweat in the next strategy of the Indochina Peninsula.

...

"Your Majesty, good news! The Nanyang Fleet was in a decisive battle with the British and Japanese forces in Malacca this afternoon. Our army won a great victory!"

After snatching the telegram, Franz the Great, who was going to sleep, was no longer sleepy at the moment.

After repeated confirmations, Franz gave a long-lost smile, and the whole person became relaxed.

The specific results have not been counted, and even his own losses have only a rough figure, but it does not affect this as a big victory.

After sinking two dreadnoughts, five old battleships, and capturing an old battleship, the main forces of the British Far East Fleet and the Japanese Navy were almost accounted for.

There is no capital ship as a combat force, even if there are more other warships that escaped, the British-Japanese coalition forces will survive in name only.

The fate awaiting them is to be surrounded and suppressed by the Shenra Navy in the following days. Without even having to act in person, the fleets of Guangxi, West and Holland in Nanyang were able to complete the task of beating down dogs.

The victory of the Battle of the Malacca Strait not only reversed the situation in the Far East, but also affected the world situation.

The myth of the invincibility of the Royal Navy was broken, and the greatest impact was not military strength, but the confidence of nations around the world in this war.

Simply calculating the military strength, the Far East Fleet will account for at most 15% of the Royal Navy. Even if the entire army is annihilated, the overall strength of the Royal Navy still has an advantage.

But the blow to confidence is not a simple set of data. The Anglo-Japanese Allied Forces have full advantages and they were overturned by the Nanyang Fleet. Who can guarantee that the Royal Navy will win the next battle?

Especially for the member states of the Ocean Alliance, at this moment they have to reconsider whether or not to continue this war.

Everyone participated in this war, in addition to the flicker of the British, the most important thing was their interests.

However, the interest is based on the premise of defeating the Holy Roman Empire. If you lose the war, you will have to lose money.

Anyway, everyone just declared war and has not officially started the fight. As long as you pay a certain price, it is not impossible to withdraw.

While shaking the Ocean Alliance, it will also stimulate the enthusiasm of allies to participate in the war. Although there is no clear division of interests after the war, everyone is aware of the consistent style of the Vienna government.

Under the distribution model in which the contribution is proportional to the income, if you want to grab a share of benefits after the war, you must make enough contributions.

If you just make up the soy sauce, then when you distribute the benefits after the war, you will also make up the soy sauce.

If nothing else, then the British will be exhausted. Even if the London government can abandon the Far East, the Indian Ocean can't let it go?

Without the containment of the Far East Fleet, it is inevitable for the Nanyang Fleet to enter the Indian Ocean. To ensure the smooth flow of routes between the British Isles and India, the British must divide their troops into station.

Transferring the fleet is not that simple. The size of the Royal Navy is indeed huge, but the mobile force they can use now is not much.

The local fleet has to contain the Shinra Navy, and several overseas fleets have to maintain the smooth flow of trade lines. It is by no means an easy task to deploy a force sufficient to counter the South Seas fleet.

After a little more thought, Franz made a decision: "Immediately release the results of the naval battle, order the Propaganda Department to launch a public opinion offensive all over the world, and shake the heart of the Ocean Alliance.

Inform our allies and let them rush to print a batch of leaflets overnight, and they will drop by the British Isles when the Air Force bombs tomorrow. "

If you don't take advantage of such a good opportunity, then you are really sorry to God.

I don't know if the British people can withstand such a blow. Less than a week after the start of the war, they suffered successive air strikes and failed naval battles.

It would be more perfect if someone could take the lead and make a stir internally.

After thinking about it, Franz gave up his intention to end himself. It is also not easy for intelligence personnel, and it is clearly difficult for them to execute such orders.

There is serious internal fighting in the UK, which is based on the absence of external threats. Now that the situation is so severe, the opposition party is not a fool.

Political struggle is a political struggle, and the prerequisite is that the British Empire must exist. It is impossible to completely abandon national interests for the sake of political struggle.

Even if there are some people who really don't understand the situation and want to take the opportunity to do things, interest groups will not tolerate them messing around.
