Chapter 434: Scheer's Faith

On the battleship 'Bavaria', the flagship of the German Navy's High Seas Fleet, the commander of the High Seas Fleet, Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer was listening to the adjutant's report on the state of the battle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"General, the 1st Battlecruiser Detachment has so far sunk three British Navy battlecruisers, the Indomitable, the Invincible, and the New Zealand. Currently, they are launching a siege on the three remaining battle cruisers of the British Navy. Although the British Navy is struggling to support it, judging by the current situation, they simply will not be able to hold out for much time. The adjutant said.

Reinhart? Admiral Scheer nodded, a smile on his face. For the German Navy, the current situation is undoubtedly moving in their favor. Every time they sank a capital ship of the British Navy, they were one step closer to victory. If this continues, it won't be long before they can win the final victory.

"What about the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment?" Reinhart? Admiral Scheer asked.

"General, the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment is currently besieging three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships of the British Navy. They encountered this unit of the British Navy in the waters south of the 1st Battlecruiser Detachment. Therefore, we judged that this unit of the British was originally intended to attack our 1st Battlecruiser Detachment. However, after being bumped into by the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment, the plan failed, and at the same time it was besieged by the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment. At present, the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment has not been able to sink any of the capital ships of the British Navy, but they have firmly gained the upper hand. Perhaps, it won't be long before good news comes. The adjutant said.

"Very good, very good. It seems that the Imperial Navy has completely seized the initiative in this war. If the remaining three battlecruisers and three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships of the British could be eliminated in one fell swoop, then the Imperial Navy would have a better chance of winning this battle. "Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer, confidence in winning is getting bigger and bigger.

"By the way, is there any news of the main fleet of the British at the moment?" Reinhart? Admiral Scheer asked. The main fleet of the British Navy, however, still has more than 20 capital ships. Those capital ships also posed a certain threat to the German Navy. If you want to defeat the British Navy, you will inevitably have to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the British Royal Navy.

"General, there is no news yet of the main fleet of the British Navy, however, their battle cruiser formation and the three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships are in crisis. Then their main fleet will definitely not die without help! The adjutant said.

Reinhart? Admiral Scheer nodded: "The analysis is very reasonable. Indeed, if the main fleet of the British did not act, they would have to watch us take out their remaining battlecruisers and three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships, which would be an absolute blow to the British. With the loss of these ships, they have no chance of reversing the situation. ”

"Order the fleet, pick up speed and move closer to the 1st battlecruiser detachment. If the main fleet of the British appears, then it will also mean that our decisive battle with them has begun. "Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer said.

"Yes, General." The adjutant immediately went to give orders.

"By the way, where is our aircraft carrier formation?" Reinhart? Admiral Scheer asked.

The two existing aircraft carriers of the German Navy also went to war this time. It's just that the German Navy has always kept this new type of warship and tactics strictly secret, and only a very small number of generals know about the existence of aircraft carriers. Reinhart? Admiral Scheer had personally seen the exercises of aircraft carriers, so he was very convinced of the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers.

Although, at present, the German Navy has only two aircraft carriers, and the carrier-based aircraft carried by the aircraft carriers can only carry light aviation torpedoes. Light aviation torpedoes may not pose much of a threat to capital ships with thick armor. However, for small and medium-sized warships, it is capable of causing fatal damage. What's more, many of the battleships of the British Navy are weakly armored. Some previously built battleships may not be able to withstand light aviation torpedoes in their armor. This makes Reinhardt? Scheer is looking forward to the performance of the two aircraft carriers.

"General, the aircraft carrier formation has been in the waters to the east of us, about a hundred kilometers away from us." A staff officer reported.

"Tell the aircraft carrier formation that as soon as they discover the main fleet of the British, they will attack immediately. Inflict as many casualties as possible on the British. In this case, it will be more conducive to our decisive battle with the British, "Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer ordered.

In Reinhardt? In Admiral Scheer's opinion, it was enough for the carrier-based aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier to be able to inflict damage on the dreadnoughts in the British Navy's main fleet. As for the remaining capital ships, such as the 'Revenge class' battleships, they can be handed over to the main fleet of the Imperial Navy, such as the 'Bavaria-class' battleships that have just been commissioned. As the most powerful battleship of the German Navy, this was their first time on the battlefield, so it was natural to show themselves. In addition, the 'King-class' battleships, also equipped with 380-mm guns, are far superior in overall strength to the British Navy's 'Revenge-class' battleships.

It can be said that, judging from the current strength of both sides, the German Navy has firmly gained the upper hand. In the ensuing naval battle, it seemed very easy to defeat the British Navy in one fell swoop and win the naval battle.

"Yes, General."

"Come on, Englishman. In this battle, the Imperial Navy will completely knock you off the altar. "Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer is full of confidence in the next battle. He also believed that the Imperial Navy would not let him down. As the German Navy sank more and more of the capital ships of the British Navy, so did the hope of victory for the German Navy.

The main fleet of the German Navy began to accelerate towards the battlefield. Although, at a distance from the battlefield, they are a little farther away.

On the battlefield on the front line, the 1st and 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachments of the German Navy still firmly controlled the initiative on the battlefield. The British naval battlecruiser detachment and the 2nd battleship detachment, under their siege, suffered more and more losses.
