The British and French fleets were decisive enough, and the British Air Force's cover was indeed powerful. Before the arrival of the second German attack aircraft group, the entire Allied fleet was already on the verge of German bomber troops' strikes, and Lieutenant General Harrel did not consider giving up this opportunity. Some bombers braved the opponent's air defense firepower to attack the British and French fleets on the sea under the cover of fighters.

In the last nearly an hour of battle, the Dandong-class battleship Gampi and another British former dreadnought were sunk. At the same time, the French fleet's flagship USS Brestane and the British Benbao battleship were hit by torpedoes, and the remaining battleships also hit at least one bombshell. After the end of this battle, the entire Allied fleet may have to return to the Greek port for maintenance. The two lightning-striking battleships may also go to Italy for repair.

There is no doubt that the Germans obviously won this battle, but in order to win this battle, the German fleet was in a bad condition. At present, a total loss of an armored cruiser and 10 destroyers were completely lost. The remaining 6 warships were also seriously damaged. After the worst battleship, the Ferdinand battleship, had only one main gun to be used! All turrets need to be replaced or repaired.

The situation of the four super-Dreadnought battleships is also not very good. All 32 artillery must be replaced after returning home. There is no way. From the start of the war, the artillery of the super-Dreadnought battleship has reached its lifespan. The gun captain on Prince Eugen clearly felt that it was at the final stage of the battle, and the walk of the artillery was a problem. If it weren't for the close distance, it would be very difficult to get a hit.

At the same time, the British's new armor-piercing bombs also left shocking scars on the German warships. These penetration injuries are not comparable to those skin trauma back then. The latter can be used as long as a replacement armor plate. Now, these warships need to enter the dock again for long-term maintenance and maintenance.

"The final result is coming out. We destroyed 2 super-defying battleships, 2 Dandong-class quasi-fair battleships, 4 front-defying battleships and 7 various cruisers. If we look at the tonnage, we will send at least 200,000 tons of various warships and ships to the bottom of the sea during this battle! Our battle can make Britain and France unable to ease within three months!" A staff officer happily announced their results to his colleagues present. Of course, many of them were killed by the Air Force, but here, no one mentioned that the navy had sufficient reasons. The commander-in-chief of this battle was Earl Spee, not Lieutenant General Harrell.

"Haha, the tonnage is really good." Looking at the cheering subordinates in the distance, Earl Spey was very calm. In fact, except for the two super fearless and two Dandong-class quasi-fairy ships, the remaining former fearless and various cruisers are not as valuable as they are in tonnage.

How do you say these things? For the British, it is a kind of thing that sinks and doesn't hurt much. The Allied Mediterranean Fleet certainly made the Allied Fleet unable to breathe within 3 months, but in the same way, I'm afraid I can't go out to sea within 3 months. Not to mention anything else, three months is not enough to repair all these warships! After all, how many shipyards can be repaired in Britain and France in the Mediterranean? And the entire Allied Fleet has only one in the Black Sea!

(This is true. In the Battle of the Dardanelles in history, Britain and France sent at least 7 Former Fearless ships, but they didn't see any blood spitting out. Look at the British and French at least 50 Former Fearless battleships. This loss is nothing! Of course, the losses of the two Dandong-class battleships are still very heartbreaking!)

"Maybe, from now on, we will have to say goodbye to this sea area completely." Looking at the battleship Benbao, which was still filled with smoke in the distance, Sir Fisher sighed.

"The main force of our fleet still exists, and we still have the advantage. Even if we do not allocate the fleet from the local area, as long as the French transfer their dreadnoughts, we can still suppress the opponent. Moreover, our new armor-piercing bombs performed very well in this battle. If a head-on battle is held, the Germans will lose." Major General Duff comforted.

"If this is true from a tactical perspective, but in fact, our strategy here has failed. Our goal is to land in Turkey and force Turkey to surrender, at least we have to set up a passage to the Black Sea. But now you see, we cannot open up the situation, whether it is sea or land. The Greek direction is oppressed by the Bavarian army, and the sea has to face the powerful allies, Mediterranean Fleet and Bavarian Air Force. Our passage is not stable. If we have to land on a large scale at this time, it is actually tantamount to suicide!"

Sir Fisher, who has left the highest power and can only be regarded as consuming his remaining energy, said without hesitation. He even wanted to tell his subordinates that from now on, the entire Balkan war zone, the Allied Army's offensive can reach depends entirely on the other side. If the other side is deliberately preparing to fish for a long line, then there is still a chance for the British and French army to land. If they don't want to, then the British and French army will have no chance at all! Sir Fisher has already felt this. The other side is using the Balkan mud pond to constantly restrain and weaken the Allied Army's military power, but to tell the truth, Sir Fisher dare not say it!

Because, this involves a question of political correctness. Both Britain and France cannot watch Russia fail strategically or morally. In history, when the Battle of the Dardanelles was launched, did no one realize that this battle was almost impossible to win? Surely not! But what was the result? Before the losses reached an unacceptable level, did Britain and France fight somewhere for several months? They successively put 500,000 troops into it?

Moreover, the situation of the Russians in this plane was even more tragic. In the north, the Prussian Eastern Front Army commanded by Markens had launched several assaults in the direction of St. Petersburg. So far, the Russians barely guarded their capital at a great cost. In the east, under the command of Prince Leopold, the main force of the Bavarian Legion and the Austro-Hungarian Legion had already reached Minsk and Kiev. It is possible to cross the Dnieper River and advance towards Donetsk at any time. If this is done, the Bavarian Legion can enter the Transcaucasus region to the southeast and attack Moscow in the northeast. The most important area of ​​Russia has either fallen or has become a war zone. If this continues, the heavy burden of the Russians can destroy themselves!
