In this way, after getting the four Dante-class battleships of Italy, the number of capital ships of the Entente in the Mediterranean has increased to fifteen, and they have actually mastered the sea dominance of the Mediterranean.

In fact, the current strength of the Allies in the Mediterranean is enough to fight a decisive battle with the Entente, the Spanish Navy has four Spanish-class battleships, two in the Americas, two in the country, the Austro-Hungarian Navy has six Combined Forces class, the Ottoman Navy has four Hamid II class, plus the Greek Navy has two Salamis-class, the number of battleships has reached fourteen, considering that the Entente fleet still has battle cruisers, and the vast majority of the Allies are Swedish-made high-speed battleships, in fact, the strength is superior, And the Entente added up to six more Russian battleships that could not get out of the Black Sea.

It's a pity that at this time, the Allies have begun to intrigue and intrigue, and it is simply unbelievable that Hamid II wants to send a fleet to rescue Greece, and he wishes that the two battleships in Greece would be sunk quickly, which was originally used against him, so the Ottoman Navy refused to participate on the grounds that it needed to guard against the Russian Black Sea Fleet. Emperor Joseph also did not like the two battleships of the Greeks, and his six combined forces class were not only slow but also poor seaworthiness because of the special requirements in terms of design.

However, considering that Greece was needed to help him in Italy, the Austro-Hungarian fleet still drove out, but the Spanish Navy could not join at this time, and their Rota naval base was outside the Strait of Gibraltar, and the British put a bunch of destroyers waiting for them in Gibraltar.

Without the Spanish and Ottoman navies, Austria-Hungary and Greece alone would have put together a maximum of eight battleships, eight against fourteen, and there was no hope of victory in this balance of strength. In order to keep their precious battleships, the Greeks simply continued to act as shrinking turtles and allowed the Allied fleets to ravage their coasts, resulting in domestic resentment and hatred of the Ottoman Empire.

While the British fleet, like lions returning to its territory, frightened all the wild dogs and jackals back to their dens in the Mediterranean, their Far Eastern Fleet had already come to the end, and this fleet, consisting of two old battleships and four steam-powered armored cruisers and eight protective cruisers, was actually a battle of honor, which of course is a good thing to say. To be realistic, they rushed towards a herd of pugs like a couple of pugs with their brains in water...

Uh, a herd of elephants.

"Commander, just ask them, maybe they will surrender, so I really can't bear to do it, it's too embarrassing to spread it!" On the battleship Helan of the Chinese Navy, Captain Dai Wen'an looked at the British Far East Fleet facing him from 17 kilometers away through a telescope, and said to Sa Zhenbing, the commander of the South Ocean Fleet, beside him.

Their fleet had set sail from Cam Ranh Bay a day earlier. In addition to four battleships and six battlecruisers, there were more than a hundred battleships of various types, the most important of which were thirty-two landing ships, and the destination of the trip was not far away. Singapore, the capital of the Straits Settlements of the United Kingdom.

"There is so much nonsense in a fight, hurry up and order fire!" Sa Zhenbing reprimanded very unceremoniously.

Dai Wenan reluctantly picked up the phone and gave the order to open fire, and with the control current transmitted by the latest firing commander in the fire control room, the ten 280mm main guns on the battleship pointed to the side side. All raised their muzzles, and at the same time, Qingcheng, Taiyue and other nine capital ships behind it also began to aim at those targets that could just be seen in the distance. Soon, the turrets were lit up with lights indicating fire.

But at this moment, Dai Wenan suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”

In the distance, on the mast of the battleship Hannibal, the flagship of the Far East Fleet of the British Royal Navy, a striking white flag slowly rose, in fact, the British came out to surrender, after all, their combined strength could not beat even a Chinese battle cruiser, and they had nowhere to run, and it was just a matter of lingering to return to India, and it was also impossible to return home, because the Chinese Persian Gulf Fleet was still waiting in the Gulf of Aden, and it was not a shame to surrender in this case, but they miscalculated the firing distance of the Chinese battleships, Therefore, the white flag was not raised until the telescope saw that the main gun of the Helan began to turn and aim, and the white flag was hurriedly raised.

Not only the surrender of the British Far East Fleet, but also the surrender of the British Governor of the Straits Settlements on the Hannibal, these British are very smart, there is no point in resisting, whether it is the navy or the army, the British military force here is not enough to withstand even the slightest blow from the Chinese, and holding on is nothing more than waiting for reinforcements, where are they waiting for reinforcements? Britain has now had more than 30 million people who have not even died, and more than 7 million people have been filled into the war in Europe, and even if they are put into a juicer, they can't squeeze anyone, and since there are no reinforcements, these thousands of people are still a fart.

With the raising of the white flag, Singapore fell into Chinese hands, and soon the huge fleet sailed into Changi Harbor, followed by two landing divisions taking over the city, and the British Governor of the Straits Settlements surrendered his sword to the commander of the Chinese Navy's Nanyang Fleet, Admiral Sa Zhenbing, at his Governor's Palace.

However, this result also made Emperor Yang more depressed, and he still wanted to watch a fierce battle, but the British did not cooperate. In fact, up to now, except for a street battle in Boli that is not too large-scale, the Chinese navy and army have not yet had a real big war, even if the battle of Boli, because Feng Guozhang, who has always been a steady commander, has not suffered too many casualties, from the beginning of the war to the present, the total casualties of the Chinese army are only 500 people, and the Russians in Chita are ready to resist stubbornly, but unfortunately they have such a shameless opponent as Wang Shizhen, and they don't play with them at all, and go directly to the bomber to wash the floor.

But the good thing is that next, he can finally enjoy a real battle.

The Russian governor in the Philippines gave up all the islands of Negros, Sama, Minduro, and Leyte that had been entangled with the Philippine guerrillas after the original occupation, including the original struggle for Sulawesi and other Indonesian islands, and then withdrew all the Russian troops scattered on these islands to Luzon, so that the total strength of the Russian army in Luzon swelled to 100,000, and all the warships of the Russian Far East Fleet also withdrew to Manila Bay, preparing to hold on here.

In other words, the next battle against Luzon will have to face a tough battle.

"Just fight, you don't need the army, the Marines will do all the work." At Yang Feng's joint meeting of chiefs of staff, Lin Chaodong, commander of the Marine Corps, patted his chest and said, at this time, the total strength of the Marine Corps has expanded to eight divisions, a total of nearly 130,000 according to the calculation of 16,000 people in each division, except for one division assigned to the American Fleet, there are now seven divisions in the country, because it is impossible to use them in the northern operation, except for the two divisions sent to Singapore to receive, all the rest are assembled in South Vietnam to standby, with their strength is indeed enough.

"Your Majesty, what do you see?" Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Chief of the Army General Staff Li Yuncong asked Yang Feng.

"Yes, it's time for our aircraft carriers to show their faces." Yang Feng said that his two aircraft carriers and super battleships have been staying in the military port of Lushun after the long-distance training, and this time they are just pulled out to test it in actual combat, and the marines lack heavy weapons in their hands, and the bombers of the Army Aviation can only take off from Panai Island to provide them with support because of the distance, but there is only a small airfield there there now It is difficult to meet the needs, so attacking the fortress Manila will suffer very much.

"After the aircraft carrier leaves the port, don't go south directly, go around Dagukou, show our people, and let them see how strong our own army is." Then Yang Feng added.

In this way, the landing operation plan for Luzon Island was formally established, and the two aircraft carriers Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, which had been kept secret, officially sailed out of Port Arthur under the escort of two battle cruisers and a group of cruisers of the Beiyang Fleet. When these two giant battleships with combat planes parked on the deck appeared outside the mouth of Dagu, the whole world was stunned again, although many people had speculated about what Emperor Yang had built in Lushun over the years, but still no one imagined that he actually drummed up such two behemoths.

Although the Chinese Navy's new round of shipbuilding plans has been added to the construction of four aircraft carriers, no one expected that Emperor Yang had already built this thing a long time ago, and it was such a huge one, compared with these two aircraft carriers, the British were taking the cruiser to convert the experimental aircraft carrier Fury, it was like a pile of garbage floating on the sea. There are also the planes parked on the deck, which also gave a huge shock to all the people who watched these two battleships, it is obvious that these planes have never appeared, when they took off from the flight deck one after another in the eyes of the public, there have been countless people sighing in their hearts, what is called cunning?

This is called the old treacherous and cunning, when others fought in Europe and bled like a river, this emperor His Majesty has stood quietly at the top of the world.

Emperor Yang stood on the Dagu Fort with a satisfied smile, watching the planes flying overhead amid the cheers of countless subjects, and now he did enjoy this feeling a little, like a god who overlooked all beings and controlled a qiē. (To be continued......)
