British Admiralty Chancellor John. After Sir Fisher's words, Prime Minister Asqui couldn't help frowning. After Sir Gray's words, he was already a little moved in his heart. Although there will certainly be some losses in sending a fleet to fight a decisive battle with the Chinese navy in North America, it is worth it if it can revive the morale of the British people and the army, and restore the glory of the Victorian era to Britain once again! However, the Secretary of the Admiralty, John . The problem pointed out by Sir Fisher, which also needs to be considered, is that the British Royal Navy is no longer as good as before, with only 22 battleships and 1 battlecruiser left, and it is not enough for the British Navy to seek world supremacy. At least, now the strength of the British Navy has lagged behind the US Navy and the Chinese Navy and is in third place in the world!

"Your Excellency, the strength of the Royal Navy has now declined a lot, which is very detrimental to Britain's global position! If we can take advantage of this opportunity to make the US Navy and the Chinese Navy compete and consume each other, maybe we will have a chance to rise again! "Colonial Chancellor George. Nathaniel. Marquis Curzon said. The British Navy was the main force that maintained Britain's vast overseas colonies, and the collapse of the colonial system that Britain had painstakingly built was also very closely related to the decline of the British Navy.

Prime Minister Asquith nodded. During the war, both China and the Allies were enemies of Britain. However, if the Entente could win the war, then the former allies would surely be transformed into rivals of Britain. In particular, the United States, which has strong industrial and military strength, will become Britain's number one opponent and will seriously threaten Britain's position!

"Ladies and gentlemen, although the United States poses a great threat to us, it will not be until after the end of the war. If we lose this war, we will lose even more! Therefore, I believe that the contradictions between us and the United States can be ignored for the time being, and we must first find a way to win this war! "Foreign Secretary Edward. Sir Grey said.

"Humph! The Chinese expeditionary fleet has only 1 capital ship, and the strength of the US Navy is enough to defeat or even annihilate this fleet. The Americans still want to drag us into the water at this time, which is obviously uneasy and kind! "Lord of the Admiralty, John. Sir Fisher said hatefully. As the Lord of the Navy, he cares very much about every capital ship when the strength of the British Royal Navy is greatly damaged!

"Sir Fisher, in the last naval battle in the North Sea, the U.S. Navy also sent a fleet to support us, and it stands to reason that we should also send a fleet to help the Americans! In addition, since the U.S. Navy already has a good chance of winning, even if we send a fleet to North America, there will not be much danger! Moreover, if our coalition with the Americans can defeat the Chinese in this naval battle, it will be very helpful to improve the morale of our people and army, and to enhance Britain's international status! "Edward. Sir Grey said.

"What if the Americans use us as cannon fodder?" John. Sir Fisher asked. Now it seems that the Americans are likely to have this in mind, which makes the British Royal Navy have to pay attention to it!

"I don't think our commander will be a fool? We can give orders to the commanders of the fleets sent to North America, and we may not accept any request that is detrimental to the interests of the British Empire. At that time, the Americans will have no way to take us! In addition, in view of the fact that the strength of the Royal Navy has not yet recovered, the size of the fleet we will send this time can be appropriately controlled, and a few battleships can be sent over to support the scene! "Edward. Sir Grey said with a smile. As long as the British side handles it properly, it is completely possible to avoid being used as cannon fodder. Anyway, as long as the fleet is sent over, then the British Navy will also be able to share the credit for the US Navy's defeat of the Chinese Navy this time. In this way, the British zhèngfǔ will have an explanation for the British people who are eager to win the war!

Lord of the Admiralty, John. Sir Fisher nodded. If you send a few warships to North America to support the scene, it is not impossible. In addition, as long as the generals who are the commanders of the fleet are clever, they will not be fooled by those Americans!

"If that's the case, then I have no opinion! The Royal Navy, in addition to suppressing the battleships that the German Navy had to leave behind, could send a fleet of 6 battleships to North America! "John. Sir Fisher said.

"Well, that's it! The Royal Navy will send a fleet and the US Navy to form a joint fleet to deal with the Chinese together! And, let the commander of the fleet improvise and not be used by those American nouveau riche! I believe that in this naval battle, we will be able to defeat the Chinese. At that time, we will not be far from winning this world war. We will surely be able to restore the glory of the British Empire! British Prime Minister Asquith said excitedly.

Everyone immediately applauded and everyone had excited smiles on their faces. In their opinion, the expeditionary fleet sent by the Chinese Navy this time is too weak. This will directly lead to the crushing defeat of the Chinese Navy in this decisive battle at sea, which will affect the outcome of the entire world war. This naval battle will also become a turning point in this world war.

"Edward. Sir Grey, you contact the American side and tell them that we have agreed to their request and will form a joint fleet with them to fight the Chinese. Prime Minister Asquith said.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Prime Minister!" Edward. Sir Grey said. Although there were arguments, in general, it was about the same as his Jianyì, which made him very satisfied. If this naval battle is won, then he will also become a hero who advocates the establishment of a joint fleet with the United States! Of course, if he fails, then he will also become a sinner! It's just that, in the case of absolute superiority, will they lose?

That evening, Edward. Sir Gray met with Jonathan, the US ambassador to the United Kingdom, and said that Britain agreed to send a fleet to form a joint fleet with the United States to fight the Chinese. It's just that because of the great loss of the strength of the British Royal Navy, this time only 6 battleships can be dispatched, and the main force to fight the Chinese is still the US Navy!

Ambassador Jonathan thanked the British for their help, but was a little unhappy that the British Navy had only sent six battleships. Back in the North Sea, the U.S. Navy sent five of its most powerful battleships to help Britain. Now Britain has only sent 6 battleships, which is a little too little! However, considering that the current British Navy is no longer the first in the world, the British Navy lost almost all the advanced warships in the Battle of Sicily. Sending 6 more battleships to join the combined fleet at a time when they want to suppress the German Navy at the same time is already their best effort!

British Admiralty Chancellor John. Sir Fisher summoned John that night. Morality. Admiral Robeck. This time, he will be in charge of the fleets sent by the Royal Navy to North America. John. Sir Fisher directly high-speed John. Morality. Admiral Robeck, the fleet sent by the Royal Navy to North America this time is just to assist the US Navy and support the scene.

"General Robeck, you also know the current situation of the Royal Navy very well, after the Battle of the North Sea and the Battle of Sicily, the Royal Navy has already suffered a great loss in strength! This time the United States asked us to join the Combined Fleet, which was obviously ill-intentioned. Therefore, as the commander of the fleet this time, you must find a way to preserve the strength of the Royal Navy as much as possible, and you can't fight hard with the Chinese! I can give you the authority that once the Americans have that we are cannon fodder, you can refuse the unreasonable demands of the Americans! "John. Sir Fisher said solemnly.

"Yes, sir! I'll do my best to bring the fleet back in good condition! However, the expeditionary fleets sent by the Chinese Navy are all battleships that can be strong, and the remaining battleships of the Royal Navy may not be comparable to the Chinese. I hope that the battleships sent to North America will be the most advanced battleships! "John. Morality. Admiral Robeck said. If the gap between xìng can be too big, I am afraid that it will not even be possible to escape for my life at that time.

"I know, I'll pick you the most powerful battleship in the Royal Navy right now!" John. Sir Fisher said!

Among the battleships in active service in the British Royal Navy, battleships equipped with 305 mm guns accounted for the vast majority, and the cutting-edge battleships have long been worn out. Despite the fact that John. Sir Fisher tried his best, but the six battleships that were drawn were still somewhat unsatisfactory. It would have been great if the British Navy's 'Revenge-class, battleships had been commissioned earlier. The 'Revenge class, the battleship is a more powerful battleship than the 'Queen Elizabeth class, the battleship. However, if the battleships are to be commissioned for the 'Revenge class, it will take at least a year or more!' After a day of consideration, John. Sir Fisher only determined the list of capital ships to be sent to North America. The six battleships were Queen Elizabeth, Marlborough, Eryn, Ajax, King George V, and Hercules! This is already the most powerful fleet that the Royal Navy has ever been able to put together!
