Iron Germany

"Everyone, the battleships purchased by the British Empire from the United States have been completed. Everything is ready. Lieutenant General Martin can lead the fleet at any time and return to the UK to participate in the decisive battle with the Germans. said Churchill.

"In this case, we will have thirty-six capital ships participating in the decisive battle. In terms of the number of capital ships, we are no less than the Germans!" Italian Admiral Paul said excitedly.

Although the Kingdom of Italy played no role in this war. However, their six capital ships are what the British urgently need now. So, even though I look down on these Italians from the bottom of my heart. But whether it was Churchill or John Jellicoe, Admiral Paul was amiable. This was almost impossible when the Royal Navy of the British Empire dominated the world.

"Indeed, although the Germans are very powerful, if the three of us join forces, we still have a great chance of winning," Churchill said.

"Everyone, let's go to the office to discuss the specific combat plan!" Churchill said.

Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul certainly have no objection to this.

When the secretary delivered the coffee and exited, only Churchill, Admiral John Jellicoe, Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul were left in the office.

"Everyone, I want to tell everyone solemnly. The outcome of this decisive battle will affect the fate of our respective countries. If we can defeat the Germans, then the current situation on the battlefield will be completely changed. We will no longer Being passive, you can even gradually take the initiative. It is not impossible to reverse the situation step by step and defeat the Germans again. I think everyone is very clear about what this means for our countries." Churchill said.

Both Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul nodded with serious faces. They naturally knew that this war was already very unfavorable to the Allies. If there is no more miracle, they will even lose this war completely. Therefore, this joint operation of the navies of the three countries has been regarded by all countries as the last straw. If it fails, then everything is over. The leaders of all countries have already called them, asking them to do their best in this naval battle, and they must win.

Churchill was satisfied with the reactions of Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul, and he went on to say: "So, in this battle, we must solve other problems and work together to ensure that our combat effectiveness can be fully utilized. "

"In order to better command the fleet, I suggest that the joint fleet of the three countries be formally established, with Admiral John Jellicoe as the commander. Do you have any objections?" Churchill then asked.

Admiral John Jellicoe commanding the fleet was impossible. Although, in the last decisive battle, Admiral John Jellicoe failed. However, there is no doubt that he has done his best. The reason for the failure is entirely because the enemy is too strong.

"France has no objection," said Admiral Lame.

Admiral Paul also shook his head.

After all, among the combined fleets, the British Navy is still the most powerful. In addition to the 8 capital ships currently moored in Morecomb Bay, there are also 12 capital ships purchased from the United States. Added together, there are already 20 ships. This has already accounted for more than half of all the capital ships of the entire United Fleet. In addition, Admiral John Jellicoe once fought against the German Navy, so he is quite experienced. It's better to let him command the fleet than someone who has no combat experience at all, right? After all, this is a battle that concerns the fate of the country, and there is no room for carelessness.

"Then, the two of you will be the deputy commanders of the joint fleet. You still command the fleets of your own countries. As for the chief of staff of the fleet, David Betty will be the lieutenant general." Churchill continued.

In this regard, Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul also have no objection. It is already very good to be able to command the fleet of one's own country. At least there is no need to worry about being used as cannon fodder by the British in the decisive battle.

"General Jellicoe, please introduce the specific combat plan!" Churchill said.

"Yes, sir." Admiral John Jellicoe nodded.

"Everyone, this time our decisive battle with the Germans is planned to be formed in the western waters of England. First, the fleet of 12 battleships led by Lieutenant General Martin will attack the German fleet. At the same time, we will lead the joint The main force of the fleet is to set off from the Irish Sea to cut off the retreat of the German fleet. Try to damage the German fleet as much as possible before the main fleet of the Germans arrives. If possible, it is best to send the German Kill all the battlecruisers in the German fleet. In this way, we will be able to gain a greater advantage when fighting against the German main fleet." Admiral John Jellicoe said.

The British Navy's combat plan is not new. To put it bluntly, it is to gather superior forces and first solve the German Navy's breaking fleet. Then there will be a decisive battle with the main fleet of the German Navy. In this case, the United Fleet will have a great advantage in terms of strength.

"General Jellicoe, the German fleet is composed of fast battlecruisers, can we catch them?" Admiral Lame asked.

"We have barely figured out the cruising route of the German breaking fleet. In this way, we can carry out an ambush in advance, mobilize a large number of warships to surround them, and then attract more German warships to come and severely damage them , Annihilate them as much as possible!" Admiral John Jellicoe said.

"Everyone, the Germans are too strong. If we rush into a full-scale confrontation with them, we won't have much chance of winning. Our only chance of winning is to weaken their strength step by step, and then defeat them. There is no other way than that," Churchill said.

"Your Excellency, let's do this!" Admiral Lame said.

"Your Excellency, when is the specific time?" Admiral Paul asked.

"I will give Lieutenant General Martin an order today to lead the fleet to set off. In this way, four days later, we can launch an attack on the German fleet. In other words, this decisive battle will begin in four days! said Churchill.

Both Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul nodded repeatedly and had no objection to this. What they care about is not when to fight the German navy, but whether they can win the German navy.
