Chapter 1189: After the Great War 1

"Although we had unexpected problems in the final stages of the campaign, overall we won a big victory this time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" the prince thought for a moment and wrote on the paper. Then he looked up again at the German High Seas Fleet outside the window, where the prince's office was located on the tallest building in Wilhelmshaven, overlooking the main berths in the harbor. And now the number of warships moored at the berths is much smaller than when they departed a few days ago.

"It's a bit of bad luck this time." Looking at the berths of the capital ships, which had already been vacated for a third of the time, the prince felt a little depressed. Although this time none of the capital ships sank. However, the attack of the British still made a considerable part of the capital ships afraid that they could no longer be engaged in combat for 1 to 2 months.

The most seriously injured was naturally the battlecruiser Goburn, which was hit by two high-powered submarine-launched torpedoes on the side of the cargo order, and in addition to the damage received in the previous battle, the ship returned to Wilhelmshaven with 3,000 tons of seawater, and when it came back, because the speed was too high, the groove was partially torn open by the waves, and several hundred tons of water were added. Visually, the ship will be lying in the dock for at least 2 months after returning.

The Sedritz was also hit by a torpedo, but because it retreated early, it did not suffer much damage and was sent to the Germania shipyard for repairs.

The Moltke and von der Thanen and three British battleships engaged in a long engagement. Shots were all in the double digits. This overhaul can't be run. THE PRINCE ALSO WANTED TO REPLACE THE VON DER TANN'S TRIPLE 12-INCH MAIN GUN TURRET WITH A TWIN 350MM GUN TURRET. Well, that's all.

The Baden and Weimar were purely damaged by British bombers, but their repairs were simpler, because the British did not have torpedoes, and the underwater part of the hull was not damaged much, but the superstructure was damaged. The Baden, in particular, is estimated to have to be overhauled from the rangefinder at the top to the flue below. Basically, in addition to the weapons, the entire middle part of the hull above the upper deck had to be replaced.......

Luckily, the three Helgran-class battleships and the improved Rainland. These 4 battleships were sent out to find von before the British bombers arrived. Lefetsov's detachment of battlecruisers. Although it was later attacked by individual bombers, there was no number of piles, and with the accuracy of the current twin-engine bombers, it could do a lot of damage, so these 4 battleships went back almost unscathed.

The prince looked at his broken flagship, the Bavaria, and then at the four fast battleships that had lost layers of paint in a few places, and he thought that it was an imbalance. "Go to the Baltic and deal with the Russians." The prince decided, after a rest, to send the fellows to the Baltic Sea to blow the northwest wind .......

The rest of the Bavarians are in good condition, although they are more or less injured, but they can be pulled back and come out in two weeks, even the Bavaria and Württemberg, which were more damaged, and the head of Wilhelmshaven said that if the ship is handed over to them, it will be repaired in a month at most.

As for the light cruisers, a total of 5 were lost, which was definitely a very painful thing for the German high seas fleet, so much so that after returning, Schell seriously asked the prince to build new light cruisers, because now the number of light cruisers in the entire fleet is already somewhat beyond their means, not to mention that they are divided into destroyer detachments as lead ships. Even regular detachments of light cruisers were not sufficiently formed. The loss of 8 destroyers is really nothing for the high seas fleet. According to the William Royal Shipyard, as long as you have money, you will be replenished with 12 destroyers within 3 months.

But as the prince said, this time the High Seas Fleet still won a great victory! This is true both at a tactical and strategic level! The battleships lost by the British this time were not as high in tonnage as the last time, but in terms of quality, they were definitely greater than the losses of Thunder-Colorbrus!

The three Queen Elizabeth-class battleships Baliem, the Prestige, and the Counterattack were sunk! The most advanced and elite presence in the British Royal Navy was completely crushed by the superior German High Seas Fleet like a powerless flock in this naval battle! And the battlecruiser New Zealand, which sank in battle, is a complete addition to the Queen!

A whole 10 light cruisers were sunk during the actions of the British in an attempt to save the fleet. These light cruisers were as fragile as duckweed in the water in the face of the German fleet's strong ships and guns, and with them were 16 destroyers.

The huge Thomas fleet, which had 7 capital ships when it came to this and 9 capital ships in its heyday, could even be stiff and head-on with the French Navy's main fleet was broken in a few hours! It is foreseeable that in the coming month's time, unless the Grand Fleet returns to the Falth Bay. Otherwise, there won't be a single capital ship in the huge port! Because they are either sunk in the waves of the North Sea, or they are paralyzed on the slipway waiting to be repaired!

The capital ships that escaped were also in a bad situation, and the Malaya had the best luck in time, and the Malaya, which ran away at the beginning, also had to replace the rangefinders on the three turrets, and repair 2 gun barrels and another turret. AS FOR THOMAS'S FLAGSHIP, THE QUEEN ELIZABETH, IT IS IN EVEN WORSE CONDITION THAN THE BATTLESHIP BADEN, ACCORDING TO THE STATISTICS OF THE BRITISH, THE BATTLESHIP WAS HIT BY AT LEAST 11 LARGE-CALIBER SHELLS, AND AS FOR THE NUMBER OF 175MM SHELLS HIT, IT IS EVEN MORE COUNTLESS, LOOK AT THE HONEYCOMB-SHAPED SIDES OF THE HULL, AND THE LARGE HOLES IN THE OPEN DECK, AND THEN LOOK UP AT AT LEAST A THIRD OF THE SUPERSTRUCTURE THAT HAS BEEN BURNED TO THE SKELETON, TWISTED STEEL PLATES, BROKEN MEASUREMENTS, AND COLLAPSED CABINS, ANYONE WITH BASIC COMMON SENSE KNOWS, Don't think of this ship in 3 months.

As for Betty's ship, the Tiger, the situation of this cargo is also not bad, the turret needs to be replaced at least two, and the hull is also carrying at least more than 2,000 tons of water when he goes back, after the huge twin 13.5-inch turret was removed, the British present looked at the huge gun ring and agreed that it was possible to raise fish here, and unlike the Queen, the waterline part of the Tiger was also seriously damaged. Although the superstructure was not as miserable as the Queen, in order to replace the damaged boilers, the British had to choose between demolishing part of the superstructure or making a large opening in the side of the hull.
