After going back, Betty began to calculate, the battleship in her hand couldn't beat the other party! Everyone is 3 super dreadnought fighters and 2 dreadnought fighters. However www.biquge.info the enemy's fleet was generally faster than its own, and the Germans defended better than their own. Needless to say, after all, the Germans have always been known for their sturdy warships, and the takeaways are still rough and thick-skinned, let alone used for themselves. As for firepower? Betty believed that as long as the German artillery was no worse than the British, the armor penetrating the trenchers should not be a big problem.

I counted the number of artillery tubes on both sides, and I seemed to be at a disadvantage. Think about the British Empire still has so many fast warships, do you want to transfer a few more to try? So, Betty applied to the Admiralty for the fleet. And said that in the absence of a superior fleet, the battlecruiser detachment could not guarantee the suppression of the German fleet. Actually, think about it, was Betty not the superior fleet in history or at least superficially superior? If there was a balance of power, Betty might not have fought so happily!

However, the landlord's family has no rice to cook! The Queen Elizabeth-class battleships are gone, if Fisher dares to transfer the last fast fleet in Jericho's hands, it is estimated that Jericho dares to threaten with resignation, and the British Imperial Grand Fleet does not have a fleet of battlecruisers to provide reconnaissance, what kind of international joke?

Supporting the Indian Ocean when the fields in the North Sea are a little overwhelmed? If anyone proposes this troop transfer plan again, it will not pass for sure, and it is possible to be scolded for being brain-dead!

"In that case, how about letting General Thomas continue to pursue the Suxiong fleet first?" Churchill said.

"I think so, it would be better if the two wounded ships could return home for repairs as soon as possible," Jericho said after a moment's thought.

"Why can't we think of something else? If we can concentrate our forces on inflicting heavy damage or even annihilating the Hipper's fleet first, then we will not be able to free up our hands to deal with the Su-Xiong fleet in the Indian Ocean? Sir Fisher said.

"The Betty fleet is at a disadvantage." Jericho said.

"We can give them an advantage! The battlecruiser Queen Mary has been commissioned and has completed its training and can be incorporated into the Betty fleet, don't we still have a Queen Elizabeth-class battleship? It seems to be called the Warrior. It can also be given to Betty temporarily, so that Betty's fleet will have 7 ships. The lineup of 5 super dreadnoughts and 2 dreadnoughts is enough to crush the Hipper's fleet. Fisher said.

"That seems like a good idea, don't you think? Sir Jericho? Churchill also frowned slightly, and looked at the commander of the Grand Fleet next to him.

"But the Hipper fleet is generally active in the south, and it will be difficult for the Grand Fleet to rush to support." Jericho said.

"This is not a problem, judging by the current situation, the Hipper fleet acts alone in every sortie. Without the support of the High Seas Fleet, and with a fleet of this magnitude, we would not have gotten no information at all. Our submarines, airships and light cruisers can provide early warning. Even if things weren't good, Betty's ships were fast and there was no problem in withdrawing before the High Seas Fleet arrived. There is no reason to fail. Fisher said.

"But their sailing was irregular, and we could not have stopped them at all, and we had not been able to decipher the German Navy's telegrams. This is non-targeted. Jericho was still hesitant.

"It's a real problem, but it's not unsolvable." Fisher smiled mysteriously, "According to our inside intelligence, before each voyage of the Hipper fleet, an oil tanker codenamed Goddess of Dawn passes through the Kiel Canal, and this ship usually arrives the day before the fleet departs, and generally speaking, about 18 hours after passing through the canal is the time for the German fleet to leave!" And by observing this ship, we can naturally determine the approximate time of departure of the German fleet. ”

"And what about the location? We can't pinpoint the location of the ambush! Jericho continued.

"If you look at this, the German fleet actually did mainly mine laying in the coastal waters, and they started in the far south, and then gradually went north. It's now close to the Bay of Forth. They clearly wanted to build a mine belt in the south. This is just hitting our gun! There's no reason why we shouldn't welcome them! Fisher said.

What are the six elements of a narrative? No, what are the six elements of a battle plan? The time, the place, the troops on both sides, and the beginning, course, and expected outcome of the battle! Otherwise, the Royal Navy was also capable, and although it was impossible to decipher the telegram, the British were able to find out the general movements of the Hipper's fleet by other means.

"Actually, we could have done it a long time ago, and we originally wanted to wait until Thomas came back with the fleet before acting, but from the current point of view, it seems that we can't wait." Churchill on the side also began to beat the side drum.

How long does it take for Thomas to catch Suchon? It's normal to have a short period of 1 week or a few months at most, but it's impossible to say, when will the two damaged Queen-class battleships regain their combat effectiveness? Not to mention anything else, it may take ten days to do a simple bandaging in India, and then it will take half a month to come back, and then enter the shipping service to completely repair it, which is estimated to take several months.

Now, it is obviously unrealistic to wait until all conditions are favorable to the Royal Navy, and it is estimated that it will not be long before Hipper will dare to lay mines on the doorstep of Forth Bay, at least for now, the German submarines are already dense in the waters around the British Isles. This momentum must be contained! Offshore sea minesets and submarines may not cause much harm to the Grand Fleet, but they can be fatal to civilian ships. The Admiralty could not withstand the pressure of public opinion, and the British Empire could not afford huge transport losses.

"Looks like you're all agreeing?" Jericho muttered to himself. "In that case, I can send a squadron of battleships to support Admiral Betty, and my Grand Fleet can go south at any time to support."

In the end, Jericho finally agreed to the battle plan of the two, in order to block the exit of the North Sea, the Grand Fleet could not easily leave the Shetland Islands, and in order to make Betty more stable, it was possible to send a detachment, even if it was a detachment composed of super dreadnoughts. After all, with only 13.5 inches of super dreadnought, there are 12 Jericho. There are only 4 ships in a detachment, and if you give it, you will give it. When it comes to battleships, Jericho is very generous. After all, now that the two Vengeance battleships have been commissioned, as more and more 15-inch gun battleships are added, it is not impossible to send a super dreadnought detachment in Jericho's opinion.
