"The Black Sea Fleet of the USSR Navy, no longer exists!" Closing the telegram in his hand, Lu Teyans felt that his head was about to blow up, and he was finally more comfortable.

3 cruisers were sunk, and the ability of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet to maneuver was greatly limited. The battleship Paris Commune was sunk, leaving the navy without the only surface vessel capable of threatening the warships of the German Navy.

The problems that the German fleet that has now entered the Black Sea have all focused on anti-submarine and air defense.

In fact, there is nothing to worry about anti-submarine anymore, the small submarines of the Soviet Navy have been scrapped more than they can be used because of poor maintenance, and it is simply a joke to go to sea to fight.

With the exception of Sevastopol, there were no decent submarine bases in the Black Sea, and the small submarines purchased by the Soviet Union from Germany were practically unusable.

Now all that remains is the Soviet Air Force, which has a very limited deterrent power. As the battle progresses, this little bit of deterrence is also weakening little by little.

"Keep shelling! When night falls, retreat! "When Lütjans got this telegram, he regained the initiative.

After giving the order, he handed the telegram to his men: "To the French fleet and the Italian fleet!" Let them follow along! Enjoy the joy of victory! ”

Whether the joy of victory can be enjoyed or not, no one can say. But this naked ostentatious ostentation and threat can indeed be transmitted to the hearts of the French and Italians.

"Did the Germans win? Won again? "After taking the telegram and looking at it carefully, Field Marshal Darlan had to admit that he still underestimated the war potential of the Germans.

After reducing the losses to a certain extent, the blood-forming ability of the Germans is really much stronger than that of the French.

After the First World War, France did not really regain its vitality until now.

I really have to thank Britain, a good ally who has been pit France across the strait!

If it weren't for the fact that Britain couldn't raise its head, France would not have lost World War II and lost its capital in less than a month......

Originally, Darlan was going to swing between Germany and Britain and the United States to see what was going on in the war – but Britain was soon defeated, and the United States turned its main focus on the Pacific.

After a series of consultations, Darlan found that it seemed that it was not bad to follow Germany, and he was personally moved by Germany's several strategic victories, and began to believe that Germany was invincible and invincible.

Since Germany could not resist, it naturally had to adopt a cooperative attitude. Coupled with the oil boom, the Petain government did give a respite, and this is what we have today.

Originally, I thought that I would not be able to cope with the work, but now that the German Navy's pursuing fleet is victorious, it reflects the incompetence of my own side.

"The Germans won't make any changes in the division of Baku's oil, will they?" That's what Darlan thinks about right now.

The oil fields in the Middle East are being built little by little, and there is no share of France in this area. Although there are them in Libya, there are really not many of them.

France has already missed too much, and if it doesn't show some real skills, it will probably not have a good ranking in the future Axis rankings.

France does not have a share of oil in the Middle East, and Italy and Germany have the lion's share of the Libyan oil fields. If the Baku oil field can't get anything, then France's oil imports will become a big problem.

After thinking about it, Darlan felt that in any case, it was time to show the power of France and let Germany face up to France's role in the Axis.

"Obey the orders of General Lütjans...... Keep shelling the heights! Let Dunkirk come up and join the shelling sequence! He put down the message and commanded.

Able to gather the fleet at the time of the French surrender and keep the whole fleet under his command, Darlan himself was a very capable commander.

Now that he had made his decision, the French fleet was even more meticulous in its execution. Noticeably different from the previous errands, as soon as the battlecruiser Dunkirk joined the bombardment sequence, the French fleet burst into fire.

"Boom! Boom! "Large-caliber shells flew one after another into the mountains in the distance, and as the sun was about to set, the French fleet made a small climax.

On the other side, on the battleship Veneto, the flagship of the Italian fleet, General Campioni also got the telegram from the German fleet.

The above news made the Italian general blush a little, and he was still thinking of finding a reason to retreat and preserve his strength.

It is simply nonsense to claim that the encounter with a Soviet submarine is simply nonsense, because not a single Soviet submarine is on a mission at this moment.

Several working submarines have already retreated to the Sea of Azov, and there is no intention of counterattacking the Axis fleet at all.

But Campioni still decided to wait, Mussolini had already explained when he sent him out, and it was the same set of "work without effort" that the French thought.

Now, however, Campioni found that the situation seemed to have changed, but that he did not have the authority of Marshal Darlan, commander of the French fleet.

Unable to make up his own mind, he could only send a telegram to Mussolini asking for instructions - so at sunset, his fleet was still "looking for Soviet submarines".

"Retreat! It's useless to spend here! The fleet returned to the ports of Romania for replenishment! Take a break and make plans! Lütjans looked at the setting sun and gave the order to retreat.

Fighting at night, he was also afraid of the submarines of the Soviets. So after weighing it up, he, like Lindemann, opted for a conservative retreat.

Sevastopol is clearly not a fortress that can be breached in a day, and it may not even be possible to destroy the fortifications on the peninsula in a month.

Therefore, what Lu Teyans is doing is preparing for long-term operations, and he also needs such a place to temper his sailors, so that the entire fleet can be tempered and the overall combat effectiveness can be improved.

This kind of actual combat training can at least expose some problems, so that Hines and he can solve them in advance. In this way, the German naval fleet will be able to gain some empirical advantages in future naval battles.

"Italian Navy...... It's really going to be beaten......" Watching his fleet slowly withdraw from the battle under the rays of the setting sun, Lütjans thought in his heart how to make the Italian fleet work harder.
