Chapter 813 The Finale - The Final End of the British Empire (8)

Compared to the seven ships loaded full of loads, no matter how anxious they are, they can only crawl with snails even if they are anxious. The "Leipzig" and "Cologne" who were originally carrying out the alert mission easily, now they naturally run the fastest as soon as they embark on the road to escape.

However, just as the officers and soldiers of the two ships "Leipzig" and "Cologne" were feeling extremely lucky for this, and kept slashing the cross on their chests of their omnipotent God, they would never have imagined that they were actually running wildly into the arms of the god of death, as if the soles of their feet were oiled.

As Dong Erdan had planned, at this time, the battleship "Wen Tianxiang" of the Red Navy's Pacific Fleet had already been waiting for their arrival together with four ironclad ships including the "Xing'anling" on their way to escape.

But what is very funny is that when the "Leipzig" and "Cologne" who were almost running side by side suddenly bumped into the real main force of the Red Navy Pacific Fleet, the officers and soldiers on the two ships not only did not feel any sense of horror, but instead seemed to see the savior, they were originally nervous and felt relaxed.

It turned out that they took it for granted that these giant ships that were like a black mountain, as warships of their British Empire allies. Many officers and soldiers were so excited that they shouted wildly while throwing their hats, and dancing their arms to greet the "their British Empire allies" who could reach out to pull them in time in times of crisis.

But Xu Zongyang, who had no spare time, had only one response to them, that is, the shells whistled out from the muzzles of the battleships of the "Wen Tianxiang" and the ironclad ships such as the "Xing'anling".

The two armored ships, the "Leipzig" and "Cologne", were originally the two main warships of the Danish fleet, but after Denmark fell under the iron hooves of the Prussians, as trophy, the former "Denmark" and "Rolf Creke" were successfully stored in their pockets by the Prussians.

Now, they have finally come to an end.

Under the hail-like artillery fire of the Red Navy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, although almost all of their bodies were covered with iron armor, the Leipzig and the Cologne were smashed into pieces in just a moment.

The tragic situation of the "Leipzig" and "Cologne" completely scared Major General Alfred von Wadesi, the commander of the German Second Fleet. He never dared to run away again and directly hung a white flag high on the mast of the "Saxony" battleship.

Therefore, the rest of the warships of the German Second Fleet were naturally willing to follow the example...

The Third Battle. The Battle of the Baltic Sea.

Of course, to be more precise, it should be the Battle of Kil Bay.

Although there was already an insatiable iron-blooded prime minister like Bismarck, Prussia, for a considerable period of time, still stared at their eyes tightly on the land beneath their feet.

In the development of the army, they always set up a powerful army that fought across the European continent as their main development goal. Even when this war that swept the world began, the Prussian Empire, which already had Bismarck's glorious thoughts as a guide, did not have a decent navy.

So when the Prussian Empire finally remembered that it had to build a powerful navy in 1867, the more than ten large and small warships captured by invading Denmark and Norway actually became the backbone forces that the Prussian Empire fleet had to rely on.

Of course, the Prussian Empire after 1867 was still quite fast on the road to naval development.

Relying on the trophy of war and the help of allies of the British Empire. In addition to his hard work and hard re-creation, in just eight years, the Prussian Empire not only became the current German Empire. The fleet of the empire has also developed into a powerful maritime armed force with more than fifty warships of all sizes and sizes, which is no less than their former Spanish friend of the Spanish Empire.

However, neither Bismarck nor other giants of the German Empire expected that the so-called rapid development path they embarked was actually an evil path.

The so-called strength of evil in their so-called maritime armed forces is actually just a physical fat body.

Due to Bismarck's "chicken thief" mentality, whether it was the Prussian Empire or the German Empire today, although their bodies were getting fatter, the real actual combat was always far away from them.

As an armed force that has become a monk from the top and bottom, it is already extremely young. It only focuses on formal strength, lacks enough practical experience, and cannot summarize a theoretical system that is completely suitable for oneself. Once it reaches the real and cruel battlefield, its true form will inevitably be established.

Therefore, even if the inexplicable thing happens in this team composed of a group of real two-pole players, it is quite normal.

Bismarck soon knew about the tragedy that happened to the Norwegian fleet and the Second Fleet of the Empire. And he also knew that what made him tasted such a bitter fruit was not the joint fleet of the Allies that had already been in the English Channel and the Mediterranean, but the Pacific Fleet of the Red Navy, which gathered from the American battlefield toward the European battlefield.

But like the generals of the German Empire, after scolding the commanders of the two fleets as a bucket, a stupid pig and a bastard, Bismarck felt very lucky, and even more aware of how wise and great his "chicken thief" was in the past.

Because, as the war situation in Europe became more and more chaotic, it was already so chaotic that even the British Empire, who was known as the Empire of Sun never set, was just struggling to survive the crisis. His wise Lord Bismarck not only did not take the maritime power of the German Empire to guard the courtyard of the British Empire, but also decisively gathered all the first fleet that was originally stationed in Wilhelmshaven into the Port of Kiel.

Just imagine, if it weren't for his foresight, the main force of the German Imperial Navy, the First Fleet, would undoubtedly become the prey of the Pacific Fleet of the Taiping Red Navy, which was rushing towards the English Channel with murderous intent.

Of course, after he had scolded enough, was glad and secretly happy, Bismarck's sense of crisis was still very strong. In the past, the chaos on land had already made him drink a pot, but now, the threat at sea suddenly became more real and stronger.

The same thing, at worst, just fight!

For the final battle, Bismarck began to summon the navy's generals more frequently than ever before.
