Count Spee was not as accurate as Ruprecht and Hipper. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 But he has a very good view of the big picture. And it's very action-oriented. He knows what to do in what situation. When the Reshadier was besieged by Russian battleships and British bombers, the earl's first reaction was that if he did not go out, then under the naval and air strikes of the British and Russian forces, the Reshadier would definitely be destroyed. So what will be the result? Lose a valuable fast battleship yourself, and then after the withdrawal of the British bomber group, you will push the Russian fleet back.

And if you go out, while the Russian fleet is unprepared, two fast battleships can cause tons of damage, and it is also possible for a confidant to kill a dreadnought, although it will attract the attention of British bombers, but look at the present, the British bombers hovering over the battlefield do not exceed 2 digits! "The attack was just as strong, and their remaining firepower wasn't even enough to inflict heavy damage on Prince Eugen or Taghoff. In this case, I think it would be appropriate to exchange the moderate damage of a battleship for the vitality of a battleship. "So, in this case, 3 German battleships quickly rushed out of the smoke screen. The destroyers were divided into two groups, one to accompany the flagship, and the other to cover the Reshadier as much as possible.

For now, it seemed that the plan had succeeded, and almost all the British bombers, still carrying bombs and torpedoes, swooped down on the Count's fleet, while the Reshadiere, under the cover of destroyers, began to gradually withdraw from the battlefield. At this point, there was no longer any force left to threaten the faltering giant ship.

As for the small number of British bombers that were not coordinated? This was not a big threat to Count Spee's fleet, and the remaining eight British bombers split into two groups, five of which attacked the Earl's flagship, the Prince Eugen, while the other three rushed to the Taghoff, which had just escaped the attack of Russian destroyers.

Three destroyers stood in the way of the British bombers, and after entering the attack route, it was very difficult for the bulky FB27 bombers to even change the direction of flight. The 3 destroyers and the Prinz Eugen behind them concentrated all their anti-aircraft firepower and opened fire, and at least 5 88MM guns and more than 10 shells fired from 2-pounder guns jumped on the sea surface and flew to the target not far away!

THE ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS WITH CAMEOS FROM THE 88MM ANTI-LIGHTNING GUNS WERE NOT VERY EFFECTIVE, THE RATE OF FIRE OF THE GUNS WAS SOMEWHAT SLOW, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WAS THAT THEY WERE NOT FLEXIBLE ENOUGH, THE ROTATION ANGLE WAS TOO SLOW, AND THE PITCH ANGLE WAS ALSO A LITTLE LOW. THE 40MM CANNON PRODUCED BY BAVARIA PERFORMED VERY WELL, AND AFTER SUCCESSFULLY DRIVING AWAY 2 BRITISH BOMBERS, THE THIRD BOMBER WAS FINALLY SMASHED, AND 4 FIST-SIZED SHELLS DIRECTLY DESTROYED THE ENGINE OF AN FB27 BOMBER, AND THEN, THE PLANE HAD CROOKED WINGS AND FELL STRAIGHT INTO THE SEA, TURNING INTO A PILE OF DEBRIS.

And the 3 bombers that attacked the Taghoff did not achieve any results, they did not have torpedoes, only bombs, and if only 3 bombers could hit the Taghoff, which was at a speed of 24 knots, then it can only be said that God is sleeping today.......

"Let's go! While the Germans have not yet pounced! "When the British bombers were attacking the Earl's fleet in order to cover the Russian Black Sea Fleet, and when the Russian destroyers were braving the sidestring fire of the other side like a volcanic eruption, Vice Admiral Eberhardt glanced at the battleship Reshadie, which was about to withdraw from view, and the German fleet in the distance, which was dealing with all kinds of troubles, and gave the order to retreat in the eyes of everyone present in some surprise and even puzzlement!

"Why don't you hurry up and send a signal to the other two ex-dreadnoughts and tell them to immediately withdraw from the battlefield on their own! We dispersed. At this moment, Kolchak said loudly. If you want to go back alive. It was only then that the Russian naval officers woke up to realize the seriousness of the problem, and a few minutes later the battleship Empress Maria turned first, and before leaving, Vice Admiral Eberhardt raised the signal flag and told Emperor Alexander III that they could dispose of the battleship if necessary.

"We've already lost, haven't we?" Alberhardt's hands trembled slightly, and he tried twice to grab the cup next to him, but to no avail, and the frustration, fear, helplessness, and frustration of defeat took him breath like a noose. The lieutenant general's face turned pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell drop by drop. It was as if I had suddenly aged ten years.

"But you've done your best, Your Excellency, and it's not our fault." Major General Kolchak said with a solemn face. "At least the Allied Mediterranean Fleet has also paid a heavy price, Turkey has a poor industrial base, they are not capable of repairing these ships, we have pushed them to the brink of collapse, and Britain and France can help us with the last step."

"Really? I hope so, I hope you can help me take care of the Black Sea Fleet. We've at least made them pay an unimaginable price, haven't we? So, it's good that I'm the one who takes the responsibility. Eberhardt whispered. At this moment, he seemed to be hollowed out, and after saying this, he never opened his mouth again.

The whole plan had failed, and even at dawn, according to Colonel Short, half of the British bomber units had already lost almost on time! In the ensuing hours of fighting, the British and Russians tried their best to make amends, but the Germans were prepared, and in the battle outside Port Erreli, the Allies lost the war, with the Count making no mistake and the German air force resisting with all their might!

Of course, you can't say that the British gained nothing, they inflicted at least one super-dreadnought and one quasi-dreadnought. According to the Turkish situation, it is estimated that the battered battleship Reshadiye will not be completely repaired in the next four months, and these two battleships are equivalent to completely eliminating them from the future Battle of the Great Niel Strait. If you count the two ultra-dreadnought battleships destroyed in Constantinople and one armored cruiser destroyed by Group C, then the Allied Mediterranean Fleet has already lost half of its capital ships! Although it didn't crush the opponent with a single blow, the operation was not a failure overall!

To be fair, it was not a good result for the British, but it was acceptable! But for the Russians, it's enough that they don't count losing their pants now! So far, the losses that can be determined by the Russian Black Sea Fleet are as follows: the dreadnought battleship Alexander III, the quasi-dreadnought Yephistarin and John Chrysostom, 1 cruiser, 8 destroyers! The loss of capital ships and auxiliary warships was more than half, and the remaining battleships were not even as effective as any battleship detachment of the British!
