In general, a shadow called confusion is hanging over the heads of the Royal Navy, they are full of people, but they can't defeat their opponents, they can't find a right path, they are just repeating defeats again and again, even Jericho thinks that it will be difficult for the Grand Fleet to completely suppress their opponents before the Queen-class battleships reach double digits!

How to say, in a way, the state of the British fleet is somewhat similar to the state of the German high seas fleet in the middle and late stages of history. Historically www.biquge.info, the German surface ship forces could not find a way to realize their own value, and the British were stronger than the Germans in this plane, and they at least knew that they had to ensure their coastal security and at the same time blockade German maritime transport as much as possible. But when it came to implementation, it was faced with one battle after another. The British have a feeling of powerlessness. There were no big losses in each sortie, but there were always some, maybe a few light cruisers, maybe a battlecruiser, maybe a battleship, if you were unlucky. This feeling of being cut by a blunt knife made the British extremely uncomfortable.

However, as a fleet commander, Jericho, who was in Shetland at this time, thought more than everyone else, and all of them were deeper. He felt that the current situation of the war was very delicate, and the German Navy had recently been like eating shotgun poison, and it was like going out for a walk if it was okay. And the British Navy is like a city manager, it must keep an eye on the high seas fleet that sneaks out, and if you are not careful, you will lose something, as a person who is in charge of the world's largest fleet, it is really annoying to be knocked out of a battle cruiser in seconds, but the most unsettling thing for him is that he can't figure out what the purpose of the Germans is!

This problem was encountered as early as the last time the High Seas Fleet and the Grand Fleet met for the first time. And until now, Jericho still did not know what the purpose of the German fleet was running out all day? Is it really just piecemeal? Or is it a test of the strength of the British Navy? If it's the former, then naturally don't worry, but what about the latter? Once the Germans found that the British fleet could not effectively contain the German fleet, then they would inevitably become more and more emboldened! Well, if you are bold, your steps will be big. If there will be no big action behind the German fleet, Jericho will not believe it!

"When I think about what the Bavarian heir did when he was calculating Betty, I can clearly sense what the other party is preparing, but now, like Betty, we don't know anything about the enemy's plans. And by the time it turns out that something is wrong, their butcher's knives have already fallen! Lieutenant General Jericho, who had experienced the war, said to Jericho worriedly.

"Yes, there are very similar points, the German Grand Fleet will never move blindly if it wants to act, they will carry out many purposeful tentative actions before. Once they have gathered enough intel and finished deceiving us in the campaign, they will unleash deadly daggers like the most insidious assassins. Lieutenant General Madden said.

"So what do you think their purpose is?" Jericho asked casually.

"I can only say that the state of our fleet is constantly declining. It's not just the fuel problem, it's been a problem that has plagued us for a long time, I mean the situation of the fleet, after every battle, we will have some warships that need to be repaired in the dock, the Germans will also have ships injured, but their injuries are much lighter than ours, just this time, the Warrior and the War Weary will have to be overhauled, and I am afraid that they will not be able to serve in 3 months, plus a revenge-class battleship that is still in the dock, and the sunken Australia, we have already lost 4 capital ships. If we meet them again, the balance of strength between us and the enemy will probably approach a dangerous area. Lieutenant General Jerram said worriedly.

"Shh......h Jericho couldn't help but gasp, he hadn't paid much attention to this problem before, but now after being raised by Lieutenant General Jericho, Jericho finally realized the seriousness of the problem! The current strength advantage of the Grand Fleet has been greatly weakened.

And this is only for the capital ships, and the consumption of auxiliary warships is even more amazing, such as light cruisers, the original Betty's 7 battle cruisers are equipped with 3 detachments for a total of 12 light cruisers, and there are 2 light cruisers in the 4 torpedo boat detachments as fleet leaders. There were 14 light cruisers in total.

And now? Thomas's fleet has 10 capital ships! There are only 2 light cruiser detachments in the regular allocation, a total of 10 light cruisers, and the light cruisers that are the lead ships of the destroyer fleet are also 2, and now there are only 12 ships, and before one capital ship could be assigned to 1 light cruiser. And now? A capital ship can only be divided into 1.2 light cruiser ....... As soon as he thought of this, Jericho could feel a chill rush from his tail vertebrae to ...... door of his head. This TM is terrible.

The two sides are now engaged in one tug-of-war after another, but the result of the tug-of-war is that more and more warships in the British fleet are sent to the slipway for repairs, and what about the Germans? Because the battleship had a good "physique", the British had a problem with the shells, and two days after returning home, they came out full of blood, and such a war of attrition was obviously a loss for the British. And if the strength of the British Grand Fleet really fell to a dangerous level, would the German fleet rush out and make a reckless wave?

It's entirely possible! After all, these few times the high seas fleet can only be regarded as the elite out, not the main force! Jericho pulled his finger when he was fine, and counted all the belongings of the High Seas Fleet, there were now 9 Bavaria-class fast battleships, 4 battlecruisers of Hipper, and 3 Helgrand-class battleships, but in addition to these, there were 4 dreadnoughts, namely the Nassau with 10 12-inch guns, 2 Posen-class battleships with 12 12-inch guns, and a fast battleship Rhineland with 12 12-inch guns! In this way, the main force of the High Seas Fleet will have 20 dreadnoughts and super-dreadnoughts!

If you pull out those battleships with quasi-dreadnought combat effectiveness, the German fleet can increase by 6, in this case, if you don't consider the fast fleet, then if you fight with the big fleet that is not in good shape now, Jericho really has no bottom ......in his heart. Although 26 of the 6 capital ships were dreadnought, the super-dreadnought and dreadnought of the Germans was just too steel!
