The British fleet is here, the British fleet is ready, then the next step is the beginning of large-scale transportation. Under the cover of the main force of the Allied Mediterranean Fleet, groups of Allied transport ships begin to transport troops and supplies to Algiers. The Allied fleet is like

Like a shepherd dog, it pulled out a long cordon with the cooperation of auxiliary warships. The outermost perimeter was a submarine and destroyer structure.

If the scale is relatively small, it will be handed over to the fast fleet commanded by Betty in the middle. If the scale is relatively large, then Thomas should appear.

It is relatively conservative, but absolutely practical. It does not easily attack the opponent's waters and avoids the threats of minefields and submarines as much as possible.

"The British have made it clear that they are waiting for us to fight with them." After a period of investigation, Lin Yongsheng found that the British's approach was more than conservative and not aggressive enough. They just said that you occupy one side and I will occupy the other side. Let's coexist peacefully!

But in fact, the Allied fleet must launch an attack on Thomas. The Allied navy can live in peace with the opponent, but the army cannot withstand the massive attack of the French soldiers. Therefore, for the sake of the overall strategy, the Allied fleet must launch an attack, and as soon as possible!

During this period, the Allied fleet also made final preparations. This military operation, codenamed Operation Peak, started early. One of the very important tasks was to camouflage the Caesar and Suleiman Sultan I.

The Caesar is closer to the foreign trade fast battleship, and the Suleiman Sultan I is more like Caesar! The former will be mixed into the fast fleet and serve as the flagship of Count Spee. The latter will be incorporated into the main fleet first. In the decisive battle

When operating together with the fast fleet, in the main decisive battle. Before the fast fleet starts maneuvering, the main fleet commanded by Tycho will temporarily keep a distance from the opponent, just to contain it from a distance, rather than to truly fight to the death. Just like Hipper

The 4 Caesars restrained 3 Queens. After the vanguard fleet successfully maneuvered, Tycho's main fleet would enter within 15km and engage in a deadly fight with the opponent. Trying to avoid a head-on fight before being in an advantageous position is the core idea of ​​the Allies.

August 7, 1916. The huge Allied Mediterranean Fleet finally set off. After several months of coordination and training, this fleet will meet Britain and France today. At 4 a.m., there is a fast fleet commanded by Vice Admiral Spey.

Sail out of the port, they will serve as the vanguard of the fleet. However, although Vice Admiral Spey is the highest commander, even he himself feels

The symbolic significance of this commander is greater than the actual. After all, this plan was formulated by Lin Yongsheng, and Lin Yongsheng happened to be on his flagship. In this plan, the biggest variable is the fast fleet, which can gain an advantage in the vanguard battle. What will happen in the decisive battle?

It was time to maneuver. No one knew it better than Lin Yongsheng. So Lin Yongsheng decisively joined the fast fleet.

"It's better to be comfortable on your own battleship. Although the Italian food is delicious, you obviously feel a little tired after eating too much. Hometown food is better." When having breakfast with Vice Admiral Yuspe, Lin Yongsheng couldn't help but sigh. Here

It gave him a feeling of home, almost the same as in China. Could it be different? Considering that it was almost difficult for the Allies to make this battleship into combat effectiveness in a short period of time, in addition to Lin Yongsheng, there were nearly 20 people who came with the ship.

No. 00 people and even the chef came with them. To be honest, except for the Turkish flag hanging on it. (Yes, it replaced the Suleiman Sultan I. So it can only fly the Turkish flag.) This is a Chinese ship

Battleships! Lin Yongsheng never imagined that he would participate in the First World War in such a confused manner. He also did not expect that not long after arriving, he would encounter a large-scale naval attack second only to the Battle of Jutland.

Lin Yongsheng felt good, but Vice Admiral Spey felt not so good. Although it was theoretically his own warship, there were not many Germans on it! The command authority was basically ejected, which is not good for those who like to control everything.

For Lieutenant General Si Pei, he was obviously a little uncomfortable, but discomfort is uncomfortable, and winning is the way to go! After having a sumptuous breakfast with Lin Yongsheng, the two came to the command tower and started discussing the next step.

Battle planning.

Count Spee's vanguard fleet had no intention of avoiding the opponent's reconnaissance. The four warships sailed toward the Allied target waters. Soon, the British light cruisers on the periphery discovered the approaching German fleet and quickly reported the information

Sent to Thomas and Betty through the radio. The Thomas fleet began to live, and Betty, who had been on alert, came up to meet them. It was correct that the opponent was four fast battleships. These should be the four outsourced battleships from Germany and Turkey.

"Very good, both sides have the same battleship. I finally don't have to command those miserable kittens anymore." Betty said to herself while looking at the information. Although he has been defeated many times, he is arrogant and arrogant.

He believed that it was his own mistake. In the Battle of Helgoland Bay, the performance of British warships was weaker than that of his opponents, and his overall strength was also weaker than that of his opponents.

hand, so it is understandable that he was defeated. As for the Battle of Jutland, Betty thought that he was even better. It was the intelligence provided by the intelligence department that was wrong, and he sank two German battleships. Otherwise, the entire

The British Empire fleet was shaved off. So Betty was still very confident in her command level and combat skills.

"Betty is not suitable to be the commander of the Grand Fleet. He is brave and foolhardy and dare not bear his mistakes." Just as Betty was defending herself, Lin Yongsheng and Lieutenant General Spey were also chatting about Betty. Lin Yongsheng had no sympathy for Betty.

I have a good impression. And historically, Betty was really not a good person. For example, in history, Dogle

During the Battle of the Sandbar, Betty's younger brother, Seymour (the flag officer), did make a mistake when giving the signal to Major General Moore behind him. As a result, Moore thought he had sunk the Blücher in the rear. Then

After the battle, under the protection of Betty, his younger brother was fine, but Major General Moore left the fast fleet.

At the Battle of Jutland, the situation occurred again. Because of Betty and Seymour's mistakes, Thomas's fleet collided directly with the High Seas Fleet and almost died. As a result, after the battle, this guy was still fine.

Thomas was scolded a few times, but Thomas was lucky. Major General Moore was finally sent to defend the island! As a result, when someone later questioned the signal problem of the Jutland avant-garde during the war, Betty still carried it on at first, and

Thomas got into a verbal spat.

If the story ends here, Betty has a good reputation for protecting her men. In the end, Betty decisively took out Seymour to top the tank, saying that the mistakes in previous naval battles were all his fault. In the end, the little brother was too stressed and jumped.

Hai committed suicide, but Betty was fine. This character was really miserable. Although Lin Yongsheng didn't know these things, through the communication with Betty, Lin Yongsheng didn't have any good impression of Betty.
