Chapter 1099 The new official takes office
One month ago, a small conference room in the British Admiralty.&1t;/p>
"Did you really decide? According to your plan, we will pay a lot of costs and take certain risks. If something goes wrong, then Betty is your role model." Admiral Jericho, who is in charge of the most powerful naval force on the planet, said to Lieutenant General Evan Thomas, who was sitting opposite.&1t;/p>
After the Battle of Thunder-Thurbruce, the British Navy also made some adjustments to the navy's command team. After such a big thing, it was necessary to find out several problematic figures, and Betty naturally took the brunt. As the top commander on the front line, he assumed more than 50% of the defeat.&1t;/p>
If it were another person, it would be lucky to be thrown directly to the edge of a certain world. For example, in history, Betty's deputy Major General Moore, because of Betty's wrong order, this guy was driven to a commander in an idle fleet, which was considered a disguised exile. And like this time, the losses were so heavy, it was enough to throw Betty into the military court for trial. He sent out 6 main battleships with more than one battleships and more than two battleships of destroyers... This cannot be said to be no one after another, but at least it is unprecedented!&1t;/p>
However, the final result of this guy was demoted to Major General, and then under Evan Thomas, he served as the commander of the Battlecruiser Team, commanding the three battlecruisers, Tiger, New Zealand and Australia. This is already awesome, okay? At least give Betty a chance to start over.&1t;/p>
As for why this result is, it can only be said to be the result of the game between the top naval leaders and the fleet. Sir Fisher and Churchill admire Betty very much, because in their opinion, it is very rare to have such a person who dares to fight and rush hard in the dim Royal Navy. Fighting is risky, but if the officers and soldiers are stuck in the face of risks, it would be bad. So they subjectively want to keep Betty.&1t;/p>
As for the fleet? Jericho is a responsible person. He knows that most people, including Major General Moore and Major General Hood, have no responsibility, especially Major General Hood. They do a good job strategically, but they can't beat others. There is no way. So when the Admiralty Department promised not to hold other personnel accountable, Jericho also accepted the punishment of Betty. To be honest, Jericho did not like Betty. On the one hand, it was because his overly radical attack made Jericho frightened, and on the other hand, it was because he did not trust this person's character. But Betty had the ability after all, and it was worthy of recognition.&1t;/p>
Well, Betty, who has been demoted to Major General, will definitely not be able to command the British Express Fleet, so who will join? Sir Fisher, Churchill, and Jericho, the Royal Navy's three-horse carriage, has flipped through the entire naval personnel list, but he did not find a perfect candidate. Originally, Churchill planned to let Major General Hood join, but Fisher believes that the future Express Fleet is mainly based on fast battleships, and Major Hood's professionalism is a bit unmatched. Jericho also expressed his hope to keep a reliable person by his side, and this motion was not passed.&1t;/p>
Major General Moore originally had sex with Betty, and his level was OK. However, he was not good at the same professionalism, and letting him take care of Betty, his original immediate boss was not good. After all, both sides had a very unpleasant fight on the previous responsibilities. So from a personnel perspective, it was not good to do this.&1t;/p>
So, finally, Jericho proposed to let Evan Thomas serve as the fleet commander.&1t;/p>
"I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely do not agree to let this coward who let Su Xiong go as commander of the most important squadron of the British Empire!" After hearing this news, Sir Fisher angrily threw the pen in his hand to the ground, and the splashed ink even fell on Jericho's military uniform. The latter just frowned and then was suitable for Churchill next to him to follow.&1t;/p>
"Your Excellency, in fact, General Thomas has done a good job. He has at least temporarily solved the Suxiong fleet. In the fleet battle between the two sides, General Thomas has done no tactical problems. If you have to blame it, it can only be said that our warships are not very powerful. Faced with the same warship, the Japanese Fusang class performed very well. I think the result of the Indian Ocean naval battle is not General Thomas's problem. Do you think?" Churchill said calmly.&1t;/p>
However, just a few words made Sir Fisher's neck stand up! Jericho on the opposite side gave Churchill a thumbs up in his heart! This bald head is so powerful! This is called hidden cleverness, and a knife is hidden in his smile! This is a tone that can be discussed in other people's ears, but in Sir Fisher's ears, it is basically equivalent to a fat pig facing a butcher!&1t;/p>
Betty resisted half of the responsibility, but who resisted the remaining half of the responsibility?! The navy unanimously agreed that the failure of this naval battle would be at least half of the responsibility of the warships! He was firecrackers when he met, and God could not save this matter. Look at the battleships that were sunk in this battle, four of them were named as the perfect cat! Who advocated these things? Who threw these scam warships to the navy? And who shouted that the entire battle fleet would be patrolled?&1t;/p>
Fisher, you old guy, always say that there is something wrong with this one and that one, can you really pick yourself out? See who is in front of you! One is your immediate boss Churchill, and the other is the commander of the big fleet. Don't make me angry, otherwise you will throw the remaining half of the blame! Then Sir Fisher was decisively frightened. You must be afraid, you can't afford to offend me.&1t;/p>
"I believe in General Thomas's strength. After participating in the Indian Ocean's encirclement and suppression of Suxiong's fleet, General Thomas has great experience with these fugitives running around. He is now preparing to make a plan. I believe that the situation will change in the near future."&1t;/p>
Jericho promised that he said this at that time, in fact, to give Fisher a step forward. He really didn't plan to take action in the near future. However, unexpectedly, Churchill seized this point. He summoned Thomas immediately and asked him to think of a solution...&1t;/p>
However, what Jericho didn't expect was that this time Thomas really had a plan, and he was eager to realize his plan! After learning about this, before Thomas could submit the plan to the Admiralty, Jericho stopped Thomas first.&1t;/p>
Now Jericho has Thomas' plan on hand. If the other party can't tell a reason, then I can only apologize! Jericho can't get through this level!&1t;/p>
Chapter completed!
