Iron Germany
Chapter 461 Big Victory
The night had completely dimmed, and the North Sea had become pitch black. Some burning warships illuminate a sea area. However, in general, the North Sea has entered a dark night.
One after another, the German ships with their searchlights turned on were searching back and forth to see if there were any survivors at sea. Regardless of whether it was the German Navy or the British Navy who fell into the water, they were rescued one by one. Although, everyone was an enemy before. However, the battle is over. The obligations of the soldiers have been fulfilled. Next, it's time for humanitarian aid.
Of course, the British, who were losers, had fled long ago. They simply don't have that much leisure to rescue those poor people who fell into the water. Dozens of battleships went out to sea for a decisive battle with the German navy, and only four crippled warships escaped in the end. Such a failure is also unacceptable to the Royal Navy. Moreover, after this failure, the Royal Navy can be regarded as finished.
The German Navy won this battle at a very small cost. This also means that Germany has replaced Britain as the new maritime hegemony.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I'm very sorry, but we still haven't been able to keep all the British battleships. The battleship 'Revenge' and the battleship 'Resolution' have been severely damaged by us. But in the end they still escaped under the cover of night." It's over." Lieutenant General Hipper felt a little regretful.
"General Hipper, you have done a good job. We have won this battle!" Admiral Reinhard Scheer smiled.
Nothing can be 100% perfect, and the German navy was able to win this decisive naval battle at a small cost, which already made him very satisfied.
In this naval battle, the German Navy lost one battleship, while three battleships and one battlecruiser were severely damaged. As for light cruisers and destroyers, 7 and 15 were sunk respectively. Such a loss is not small. However, compared with the results they achieved, this is undoubtedly a bit insignificant.
In this naval battle of the British Navy, 22 battleships and 5 battlecruisers were sunk, and another 3 battleships and 1 battlecruiser were severely damaged. The losses of cruisers and destroyers were extremely heavy. It can be said that the most elite part of the Royal Navy has been wiped out by the German Navy. Next, the Royal Navy could only hide in the port and linger on. Facing the attack of the German navy, they had nothing to do.
"Your Excellency, the British now generally have 7 battleships and 1 battlecruiser left. Although almost all of these battleships have been severely damaged. However, with the British shipbuilding capabilities, they will soon be able to Repair these warships. At that time, this will still be a threat to us." Lieutenant General Maximilian von Spee said.
Admiral Reinhard Scheer nodded: "But, no matter what, we have already killed the main battleship of the British. The next few warships are relatively much easier to deal with. I believe Well, if the Imperial Navy can get rid of their main fleet, they will also be able to get rid of their remaining warships. From now on, the broken fleet will resume the blockade of Britain, and no supplies will be able to flow into the UK. Without those supplies, it will be very difficult for the British to build new warships. After the army has dealt with the British and French allied forces, the next step is to land in the UK. By then, the British will be completely lost. "
"Yes, Your Excellency Commander." Both Lieutenant General Hipper and Lieutenant General Spee nodded.
"Let's report the news of our victory to the country. The UK is waiting in a hurry." Admiral Reinhard Scheer said.
Both Lieutenant General Hipper and Lieutenant General Spee laughed, and Germany is also very concerned about this naval battle that concerns whether Germany can replace Britain and become the supremacy of the sea. This is directly related to whether Germany can win this war. Germany has prepared carefully for so many years, and now it has finally won the final victory.
Berlin, Germany, inside the Imperial Palace, German Kaiser Wilhelm II, Crown Prince Qin Tian, Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow, Foreign Minister von Kidren Wascht, Minister of the Navy Marshal Tirpitz, Minister of War Marshal von Falkenhain and the chief of the general staff gathered in William II's office.
Since the battle broke out, they have been anxiously waiting for the final result. Although, Qin Tian and Marshal Earl Tirpitz repeatedly assured that the German navy had already gained the absolute upper hand in this battle, and the final victory must belong to them. However, everyone can't help but feel a little worried. Although the German navy has a great advantage, no one can guarantee whether there will be any unexpected factors in the naval battle. In that case, Germany's easy victory may slip away.
Therefore, before getting the final definite news, everyone dare not take it lightly.
From the morning to the afternoon, the sun went down, but there was still no news, which made everyone a little anxious. Although, they know that it is very normal for a large-scale naval battle to last for a day, and it may even last longer. However, everyone is a little anxious, which is understandable.
After entertaining everyone for a simple meal, William II continued to wait for news. The waiter had already served the coffee. Obviously, without waiting for the final result, everyone didn't even have the mind to sleep.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Marshal von Pohl, chief of staff of the Imperial Navy, rushed to the palace to report the emergency situation of the navy to Wilhelm II.
"Did we win the battle?" Wilhelm II looked expectantly at Marshal von Pohl. At the same time, there are some apprehensions in my heart. He was also a little scared that he would hear bad news next. After all, the British maritime hegemony is not so easy to challenge. For hundreds of years, several countries have fallen on the way to compete with the British for maritime supremacy. Although Germany was close to winning this time, William II was somewhat worried.
"Your Majesty, we have won. We have won the battle. The High Seas Fleet defeated the British in this naval battle." Marshal von Pohl said.
"Win? We won?" William II was stunned, as if shocked by the good news.
The others also cheered. Everyone knows what this victory means to Germany.
