On August 31, 1914, a large fleet set sail from the east coast of Canada. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThis fleet consists of more than 20 merchant ships. On merchant ships, iron ingots, aluminum ingots, and various non-ferrous metals were transported, as well as grains such as wheat and cereals.

After the start of the Great War, Britain's war machine was already running like crazy, which required a large amount of war materials to consume. It is clear that the little resources extracted from Britain alone cannot be met by war. As a result, Britain was only able to mobilize resources from its vast colonies. It was precisely because of the vast number of colonies that could be exploited that Britain had the confidence to join this war.

Although, the German Navy's broken fleet was frantically attacking Britain's sea transportation lines, causing great losses to Britain. However, this did not prevent the British from transporting various supplies to the homeland. The British knew very well that the sea transportation line was the lifeblood of their survival, and for a country that even needed to transport food from overseas, once the sea transportation line was cut off, it would mean extinction.

That's why the British government was so nervous about the sea lines being attacked by the German navy. The Royal Navy will be required to destroy the German Navy's broken fleet at all costs and ensure the safety of the Royal Navy's sea transportation lines.

Of course, the German side also knew this, so it would do its best to cut off Britain's sea transportation lines, so as to weaken Britain's war potential and win this war.

It can be said that the struggle for maritime supremacy between Britain and Germany will mainly revolve around the sea transport lines of the British. In particular, before the decisive battle between the main fleets of both sides, the breaking engagement and the counter-breaking engagement will become the main battles of this naval battle.

The news of the departure of the large British fleet from Canada was also transmitted back to China by German spies in Canada for the first time. When the German Navy learned of this, it immediately analyzed it and came to the conclusion that it was most likely a conspiracy of the British.

After all, under the blow of the German Navy's broken fleet, the British already suffered great losses on the sea transport lines. Even if they sent warships to escort them, it only reduced some losses. The German Navy's battle cruisers and submarines continued to achieve success, sinking British merchant ships and transports, and threatening the British sea transportation lines.

On average, for every shipload of supplies that Britain sends into the country, one ship sinks into the sea with supplies. Such a loss, even if Britain has the world's largest merchant fleet and the world's most powerful shipbuilding strength, it will soon be unable to hold on. So, the British will definitely find a way to change this situation. And the elimination of the German Navy's broken fleet is undoubtedly the solution to this problem once and for all.

"Your Excellency Marshal, Your Excellency the Commander. The Naval Staff therefore concluded that this time the news was most likely deliberately revealed by the British. And their goal, naturally, is self-evident, it is aimed at our broken fleet. "Chief of Staff of the Navy, Feng? Marshal Pol said.

Field Marshal Tirpitz, the German Admiralty, nodded, and he could guess what kind of calculations the British were making.

However, another piece of intelligence shows that the materials transported by this British fleet are all genuine, and they are all all kinds of resources and food that the British continue to have. If we hadn't attacked them, the fleet would have been able to get these supplies to Britain safely. This will allow Britain's war potential to be further developed. "High Seas Fleet Commander Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer said.

"General Scheer, do you mean that we should take the risk even if we know it's a trap?" Marshal Count Tirpitz frowned. This decisive battle at sea with Britain was directly related to whether the German Navy could gain maritime supremacy from the British. So, he wants to be a little more cautious. Such an obvious trap should naturally be avoided by the German Navy.

"Yes, Your Excellency. Personally, I thought we could take a risk. With the strength of our broken fleet, it is enough to deal with all problems. Coupled with the advantage of speed, even if you really encounter danger, you can escape calmly. If we can deal with this huge convoy of the British this time. Well, I'm afraid the British will never dare to do this again. This will be very effective in cutting off the sea transport lines of the British and striking at the war potential of the British. "Reinhardt? Admiral Scheer, told his reasons.

Marshal Count Tirpitz nodded, and indeed it made a lot of sense. However, he was a little unsure of what to choose.

"Your Royal Highness, what do you think?" Marshal Count Tirpitz looked at Qin Tian.

That's right, Qin Tian also participated in this naval meeting. Although, during this period of time, Qin Tian's main experience has been placed on the army. However, after the 8th Army Corps took out the North-Western Front of the Russian army, a week-long rest began. Qin Tian also used this time to return to Berlin to report to Wilhelm II and see his wife and children at the same time.

It just so happened that after the navy learned of the small actions of the British, Marshal Count Tirpitz invited Qin Tian to attend this meeting as well. Qin Tian's investment in the navy is undoubtedly the greatest, and he also hopes that the navy can win the decisive battle with the British. Therefore, for the invitation of Marshal Count Tirpitz, Qin Tian did not refuse, and directly agreed.

"There is no doubt that this must have been a trap set by the British in order to deal with our broken fleet. I am sure that if we attacked, the British would have prepared a powerful main fleet ready to ambush us. Qin Tian said.

"Then Your Highness means that this time you will not care about the British?" Marshal Count Tirpitz asked.

"Of course not, if we allow the British fleet to reach the British mainland, the next time, the British will choose this way. When the time comes, we want to cut off the sea transport lines of the British, and that will become an empty phrase. So, we have to avoid this as much as possible. Qin Tian said.

Everyone looked at Qin Tian, not knowing why he was saying contradictory things.

"Although, we know that this is a trap set by the British. However, we can do what we can and let the British steal chickens and rice! A smile appeared on Qin Tian's face.
