In general, the situation of Count Spee is the worst, the fleet is at a disadvantage, it is limited to the more narrow eastern Mediterranean region, and the logistics are not replenished, don't look at Suxiong's port of Fao, which is also not good, but there are only 2 ships, while Count Spee is 4, and Suchon only needs to face the British capital ships that come over occasionally, and in the Mediterranean, the French fleet goes up almost three times a week! The pressure is not ordinary!

"I always felt that if the Entente wanted to do it, they would choose me first. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Count Spee, who was under pressure, wrote in a telegram to Prince Ruprecht.

"I think so. And it's estimated soon. The prince wrote very simply in his reply to the earl.

"I rub, when, then what do I do?"

"Get ready to play a big game first, I'm thinking about it, you can't solve this problem, and you want me to come forward with the Kaiser." The prince let out a long sigh after writing this telegram just now, and said in his heart, "O classmate Spee, why is it that you are always the most bitter in history and now?"

Not to mention in history, Count Spee, who led the Far East Fleet, was surrounded by the British and Japanese fleets, and finally hated the Falkland Islands. Although it is better than in history now, he is the only one who is stuck at home all day long, and then he may face his hometown being attacked by the other party's land and sea.

Count Spee's concern is justified, from the perspective of the strategic situation, the overall supply situation of Count Spee is the worst, the space that can maneuver is the smallest, and the gap in the fleet is also very large. Three disadvantages account for three! It is the weakest link in the entire Allied naval strategic chain, and the cost of breakthrough is also the lowest! Because in the North Sea, the British wanted to break through and defeat the high seas fleet first, and looking at the 15-inch guns of the Bavarians, the British felt a little weak. Although the Suxiong fleet in the Indian Ocean is not strong, it is not ordinarily difficult to chase Suxiong in the entire Indian Ocean, and even count the Atlantic.

Only the Mediterranean! Count Spee can't beat and can't run, not to mention the capital ship, the count has a headache when he thinks of the other party's more than a dozen 10,000-ton armored cruisers and 6 Dandong, this thing acts with the capital ship, if you dare not run, wait to be washed by high-explosive bombs! Although it couldn't hurt the core area, just a simple rain of bullets was enough to make the battleship go back to the dock and lie down for three months, not because the injuries were too serious, but because the conditions on the Turkish side were too poor!

Recall the recent interception of telegrams from within the Allies, in which Russia urged Britain and France to launch a major offensive on the Mediterranean line in order to open access to the Black Sea. As a traverser, the prince can be sure that Britain and France will definitely launch this offensive, and if you look at the posture, I am afraid that it will be even larger than the scale in history! Because Britain and France now have access to a large amount of Japanese army cannon fodder and naval support!

The prince had read Hans. Feng. Seckert's battlefield report and summary, the situation is as he expected, in the face of the first-class army in Europe, the Japanese with backward tactical thinking and poor equipment were really defeated, but this is only the beginning, with the improvement of equipment and the baptism of war for a long time, even a domestic pig can evolve into a wild boar!

And judging by the performance of the Japanese Navy, the prince also felt that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Combined Fleet was a little small. The Japanese fleet came to the North Sea, which would cause some trouble for the prince. Because the Japanese fleet is also the main battle of fast warships, the capital ships are very strong in combat. And if you go to the Mediterranean, I'm afraid it will bring more than just trouble to Count Spee! It's also possible to get hit hard. And if the Battle of the Dardanelles is launched, if something happens and the Black Sea passage is opened, then it will be devastating for the strategy of the Allies! Imagine if Russia had acquired enough weapons, its combat effectiveness would have increased by several steps!

Therefore, in any respect, if there is no problem with the internal coordination of the Entente, whether it is at sea or on land, the next stage of breakthrough will definitely be in the Mediterranean direction! Although the Battle of the Dardanelles was defeated in history, it boils down to the fact that the Entente was not well prepared and was too light on the enemy.

Without a perfect strategic plan, all kinds of fueling tactics plus other problems, all the mistakes that can be made are made again! And what will happen to this plane, the prince does not know. In line with the principle of leniency for the enemy, the prince needs to make the Turkish and Spee fleets better prepared! If necessary, the Bavarian Army would probably have to let Russia go first, transfer part of its forces to the Balkans, and then open a land passage to Turkey.

This was a game-breaking opportunity for the Entente, and no less so for the prince! After all, it would be quite difficult to launch a large-scale landing battle, and it would be an opportunity to relieve the pressure on other fronts. Preparations on land can be made a little later, after all, the Balkan countries are too dish. It's not hard to fight. It will also take a long time for the British and French armies to transfer hundreds of thousands of troops, but the navy should be prepared as soon as possible, and it seems that at this time, the prince will have to find his father-in-law.

Thinking of this, Ruprecht wrote another letter to the Kaiser, the content of which was simple, so that Tirpitz would have time to come to Prague and then go with him to Vienna for a walk. Something should also be said, and by the way, let Fritz agree that the Austro-Hungarian fleet would rush out of the Adriatic Sea and join Count Spee. That's all he can do now, and for Count Spee, he might get an extra capital ship, or he might put himself in it. It's all up to him and his luck!

"When will the British and French make their hands in the Mediterranean?" Tirpitz asked when he came to Prague to meet Crown Prince Ruprecht.

"As soon as the Japanese fleet arrives in the Mediterranean, they will act! They will completely squeeze the count's fleet into the Black Sea, and then begin to prepare for a landing operation. The prince replied very simply.

"So we must convince Emperor Fritz to agree to our plan before the Japanese fleet comes to the Mediterranean, and Count Spee must take the Austro-Hungarian fleet out of the Adriatic?" Tirpitz asked.

"That's right."

"And what about those ships that the Japanese fleet will send? What if they choose the Indian Ocean first? ”

"I really don't know about that, because we don't know if the Japanese will do anything else when they send their fleets into Europe. As for the operation in the Indian Ocean, then it couldn't be better, let them find Su Xiong slowly. The prince said.
