In the Bay of Bengal at night, on the calm sea, the British Far East Fleet is conducting routine sea training.

The British Far East Fleet, after its defeat at the hands of Fan Yize five years ago, has strengthened to become the most powerful fleet outside of the British Home Fleet.

For this reason, the British directly canceled the establishment of the Indian fleet and merged the original Indian fleet into the Far Eastern Fleet.

Therefore, the current British Far East Fleet, with its actual jurisdiction and patrol seas, spreads directly from the Indian Ocean to the western Pacific Ocean.

Compared with the previous two fleets, the new Far Eastern Fleet is even busier.

The battleship St. Vincent, the flagship of the Far East Fleet, was located in the middle of the fleet, flanked by two other battleships of the same class: the Collingwood and the Avantgarde.

These are three Dreadnought-class warships, and the second type of Dreadnought-class battleship to be built by the British after the Dreadnought-class, a total of three were built in this class, and all of them were in service in the Far East.

And beside these three dreadnought-class battleships, there are also six former dreadnought-class battleships.

The British Navy, which has dreadnought-class battleships and even super-dreadnoughts, has not yet been able to replace all the former dreadnoughts in one fell swoop.

The reason why the six Majestic-class battleships, which are also the main warships of the Far East Fleet, gathered in the Bay of Bengal today is also for the Far East Fleet to conduct an overall tactical exercise, after all, the British fleet has to face the powerful navy under Fan Yize.

And the three St. Vincent-class battleships have only recently arrived in the Far East to join the Far East Fleet.

In terms of speed, the speed of these three Dreadnought-class warships can generally reach twenty-two knots, while the other six warships have a maximum speed of only eighteen knots, and they can only maintain it for a short time, and in the case of fourteen knots, they can only maintain it for seven or eight hours.

With a speed difference of nearly ten knots, it is necessary to maintain close tactical cooperation, and it is impossible for these three dreadnoughts to take the lead after the outbreak of naval battles, leaving all the other warships behind.

Of course, as new-type warships, the three cutting-edge warships, which are much faster than the speed, are all organized into a sub-fleet, and serve as the command center of the whole fleet, commanding the entire fleet to fight.

For this reason, these six Majestic-class battleships were not to be held back, and all six battleships were modified to a certain extent, equipped with the most advanced radio systems, and were able to contact other battleships in time.

In terms of communications, it has indeed narrowed the gap with the Red Police Corps.

At this moment, on the sea less than 30 kilometers away from the Far East Fleet, the newly organized Indian Ocean Fleet is quietly advancing on the sea.

The radar on the top of the battleship had already scanned the location of the Far East Fleet, but the First Fleet was not in a hurry to launch a sneak attack.

Will this be another undeclared war?

At this time on the British fleet, David, the new commander of the British Far East Fleet, was sitting leisurely in the captain's room with his legs crossed and looking at the Times in his hand.

Because of the distance, several days have passed since the newspaper reached David's hands.

In the Times received today, an article by Fan Yize was published, and the content of the article was very simple, that is, he asked Britain to stop the endless plan to build new battleships and stop the naval race around the world.

When David saw this, he immediately laughed, God knows how many people were laughing at Fan Yize's naivety on the day this newspaper appeared.

Especially under this report, there is also a wonderful comment from a retired old British navy, which makes this report completely popular.

The comment was very simple, quoting what Fan Yize had published, and wrote: "Fan Yize can't sit still, maybe he will soon declare war on Britain." ”

The original English commentary is full of ridicule.

Although everyone admits that the navy under Fan Yize is still very strong, the United Kingdom, with its dreadnought warships, will soon surpass the fleet under Fan Yize, and the strength of Britain will once again shock the world.

David also admitted that Fan Yize is a very amazing person, and the rising Japan was shot alive.

Even the old power Russia was controlled by Fan Yize in Siberia, no matter what, the three words Fan Yize represent a top power in the world.

With the current strength of the British Far East Fleet, it is indeed not the opponent of the fleet under Fan Yize, but this is only temporary, as long as it is a few years later, the Far East Fleet will truly become the strongest fleet in the Far East.

David was confident in this.

As for the ridicule in the comments, David also thought it was funny, and it was the best counterattack to Fan Yize's childish remarks.

David was not worried that Fan Yize would attack the British, because the three fleets under Fan Yize's command, the first fleet was still in the Sea of Japan, the second fleet was in the Pacific Ocean, and the third fleet was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

In David's view, what should be worried is the Americans, and in the face of Fan Yize's three fleets, he doesn't know if the Americans in the Philippines can sleep peacefully.

And this is also David's favorite mantra to tease the British.

However, what David didn't know was that the three fleets of the Red Alert he saw were really still in the three places he knew.

Or is it true that the Red Guard Navy only has three fleets?

The outside world's understanding of the Red Guard Navy is still stuck five years ago, and at that time, the Red Guard Navy did only have three fleets plus one protection fleet, adding up to a total of ten battleships.

However, it is not only Western countries that have progressed, although Fan Yize has not built a navy on a large scale, but he will not let the navy stagnate like that, especially when various countries have launched dreadnoughts and super-dreadnoughts.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, even if you are ahead in technology, Fan Yize doesn't want to be much less in numbers.

In particular, after the all-round exploitation of the world's resources, the development funds of the Red Guard Corps have suddenly become abundant, and in addition to the marked reduction in fighting in the past two years, the consumption of ammunition and the consumption of war have been greatly reduced.

The funds of the base were immediately abundant, in order to plan the next war, and in order to confuse the opponent, Fan Yize has been in the naval world inside the base to build a new fleet, which is the Indian Ocean Fleet.

"Is the commander worried that Fan Yize will be tempted to sneak attack the Far East Fleet?" When David was watching the excitement, a scherzo voice came from beside him.

"My Excellency, Chief of Staff, can't you see I'm laughing?" When David heard this, he said without looking back: "It is said that Fan Yize is an extremely smart person, I don't think he would make such a statement." ”
