This battle lasted for more than four hours in total. The situation over the North Sea made it a little difficult for each other to receive signals. However, the Admiralty and the Fast Fleet were thousands of miles away and received this message with their powerful receiving machines and more probability. To be honest, when he heard the information reported by the correspondent, Betty was stunned and was still waiting for news in the Admiralty. No one expected that a battle to stop the return of the German Navy would turn into an air battle. The unprepared airship was sunk on a large scale.

The reason why there is such a big difference is, on the one hand, because Germany has a intensive camp, 120 to 60, concentrated and dispersed, and has an absolute advantage. But on the other hand, the airships made by Germany in the northwest are much better in quality than those made by Britain and the United States.

Even if there is no special research on the airships in the northwest, the frames used by the airships are lightweight aluminum alloy frames, double-layer networks, some air leakage resistance systems, polymer materials, etc. Perhaps they do not have much resistance to machine guns. Generally, machine guns have less lethality for airships built in the northwest. This is also the case that the UK does not carry machine guns, so it is the most important reason for the large gap in combat results.

The number of 50:15 is unacceptable to the British side. The most important thing is that the members of the airship were shot down were still very dangerous. They were shot down and fell to the North Sea, with a minimum of 400 nautical miles. There was no land.

In the battle of airships, most crew members did not have much trouble. After all, the attacks and kills each other only target the airbags above, which is the largest target of attack. After using helium, the attack airbag will not explode. However, when the airbag is damaged in large quantities, it will still affect the airship and eventually sink slowly.

This era has not yet reached the point where it is omnipotent. In naval and air combat, there is a certain knight's principle, such as not continuing to attack the sailors who fall into the water, and even rescue them.

The airship battle between Britain and Germany lasted for more than three hours, but the real state of war was very short. The speed, protection, and even the power comparison between the two sides made the battle end in a very short time. Germany defeated the opponent's airbags in large numbers. When the British airship lost its position, Germany did not pursue the victory.

After losing most of the buoyancy and falling on the sea, the airbags of the airship provide enough buoyancy for these survivors. They can float on the sea with the help of hanging baskets and airbags, but this time will never be long. The north wind after night will cause the meteorological conditions of the North Sea and the sea environment to undergo huge changes. If they cannot be rescued, they will suffer huge losses.

The Admiralty Department took emergency action, and the ships that were preparing to encircle the German fleet and the fast fleet that had been waiting. It changed its purpose and urgently went to the accidental waters, and at all costs, rescued the British who fell into the water. As for the previous mission, no one would care about it anymore.

Not only the British side, Germany is also very clear about this. After shooting down all the airships in 3 hours, this is basically safe for the German attack fleet. After missing 15 airships, the German airship troops did not dare to continue to move here. God knows whether the British side will be crazy and full of their pockets.

But in fact, Britain was really crazy. He mobilized almost 120 airships from the local area, flew up in full armed forces, and prepared for a strategic decisive battle with the German airships, and the ship was placed in a relatively secondary position.

The high cost of airships is more than US$1 million. It is enough to attract attention to the price of one airship sinking at such a price. Now it has sunk 50 ships at once, which is a huge loss. It costs about 10 million pounds, and the main battleship can make 4 ships.

The reason why Germany attacked the airship was also clear, was to ensure the safety of that fleet. Now, near that direction, there were only fast fleets that were constantly serpentine maneuvering, but the search for airships at altitude was missing. On the sea, chasing someone who didn't know where to run, lost their target, and only knew the general direction. This was almost an extremely low search probability for the navy, and it was almost impossible to find it.

On the contrary, airships are a huge target. If they can be blocked, they can take revenge. In addition to letting the local airships set off, the British also contacted the airships in Paris. At present, the German army is not ready to attack. Paris has become the base camp of the entire Allied airships. The huge Paris gives airships enough space to take off. More than 400 airships are spread all over Paris. After learning about the German division of troops, these airships were also loaded and taken off urgently.

No one expected that the German Admiralty was just a targeted retaliatory action that caused the launch of 500 airships. The entire German army had no idea what happened. 120 airships were missing. Facing the other party's strong provocation of the British and French airships, it was almost impossible to launch and hide in the hangar.

The entire Paris front was crazy, and no one knew what was going on. Whether Britain and France were preparing for strategic counterattacks and sent airships to bomb. After the troops surrounding Paris were all ready for air bombing, they found that these airships did not care about the troops near Paris at all, but flew directly to the sea.

Such strange behavior surprised the German side. Fortunately, the entire north of Paris and near Belgium were under the control of the German army. Although it was impossible to defend step by step, there were still simple observation posts, more than 400 airships and huge mountain-like airships set off together. This feeling can definitely be said to be amazing. Even ordinary people will see it because of the excitement.

The airship troops headed straight north and eventually disappeared on the sea. It was not like the UK they expected to go to. It was so great that it attracted such a big disturbance from Britain and France. The Paris Front Command quickly reported it and finally reported it to the General Staff.

The General Staff knew the battle situation in the North Sea. The 120 airships happily killed 50 British airships at the sea and achieved a shooting down ratio of 4:50. Such a exchange was simply a hearty victory, but without waiting for everyone to be happy for too long, this sudden news was like a basin of cold water, poured directly on everyone's heads.

Now, Germany, and even the entire world, has a prototype for airship combat tactics, but according to conventional theories, the density of quantity and firepower basically represent the strength of both sides. In terms of quantity, the combined number of German airships is also very different from Britain and France. Not to mention other places, there are 400 airships in Paris, which are above Germany, not to mention the manufacturing capabilities of the British Empire, Germany never dared to underestimate them.

At this time, I could no longer care about anything else. The advantages I have obtained cannot be ruined. The combination of airships by the British and French forces can form a four-fold overwhelming advantage. Although the German General Staff has enough confidence in the strength of the Northwest airship, the problem of airships being strong and weak in offense is huge and cannot be solved. Even if the counter-killing is caused by a ratio of 1:1, it will be useless. The price of sinking 120 airships together is unbearable for Germany.

After understanding clearly, the German airship, which had succeeded with the urgent order, immediately turned and turned back to Germany from the direction of the Baltic Sea. At present, although the airship has no natural enemies, the only one who can deal with the airship is the airship. However, deep into the enemy's hinterland is always a very dangerous adventure. If an attack is caused, it is quite dangerous. As far as the position of the airship formation is concerned, it will be safe as long as it enters the German controlled area.

Airships can be faster than ships. The airspace in the air is almost infinite in the era without aircraft. In this case, if you go all out, how can you miss it? Turn from the direction of the previous battle, don’t return to the vicinity of Paris, but fly eastward and return to the European continent. Even if it is not a German-controlled area, the danger of being surrounded is very small.

In the end, the battle ended with the German side fleeing back to the controlled area. The British and French airship coalition did not venture into the Nordic continent and continued to pursue it. After returning in vain, they returned. Tu Hong, who was searching for the airship frantically, happened to meet the German ships, but they were already sighing because the ship had entered the Kiel Canal. The British Navy had a huge advantage over the German Navy, but this advantage did not mean that he could enter the Kiel Canal at will, which was in Germany's absolute control area.

If it were a German airship, it might have bombed some people to vent their anger. However, now the British and French airships have no way to accurately hit the ships moving at high speed. They casually threw a few bombs, stabbed many flowers, plants and fish in the water, and then returned, and everything returned to peace.

An inexplicable and extremely fierce encounter came to an end. From the German side, to the airship war between the two sides, and after the end, Britain and France took out 500 airships to retaliate. From the ocean to the sky, the situation of the war seemed to have undergone unimaginable changes in an instant. Later military scholars positioned the position of this battle very high. The prototype of the three armed forces of the army, navy and air force was recognized as a beginning in this period. Even the air war triggered by the naval raid was called a typical air battle. The dense camp and full firepower arrangement have become the standard configuration of airships in this era. Some even think that the airships are listed separately and independent as a first army.
