The battle in the waters of Sirte is not only a concern of the countries concerned, but also affects the hearts of the whole world.

Long before the exchange of fire between the two sides, countries set their eyes on this sea area, after all, Saba's clear telegram information is so amazing, everyone knows that naval war is destined to break out.

Of course, no matter what the countries think, but when the results of the naval battle were released, it still caused an uproar. Although the Entente on the side of Britain and France used strategic victory as a cover, in the eyes of other countries, this was defeat, and no matter how it was interpreted, this could not be changed.

Of course, for the navies of various countries, this naval battle in the waters of Sirte is too exciting, enough to analyze too many things.

First of all, in terms of overall tactics as a whole, the British Navy did not do a bad job. The battleships were secretly sent south for reinforcements, and the French battleships were also merged, so that before the outbreak of this naval battle, the entire tactical layout was actually the advantage of Britain and France.

Had it not been discovered off the coast of Libya, what might have awaited the combined Italian-Austrian fleet would have been another outcome. So at the tactical level, the British Navy showed its old and spicy side.

But even the best strategy and tactics need enough execution and a little luck. In terms of execution, the British and French fleets actually did not do badly, but in terms of luck, they were a little worse.

Of course, this shows even more that the commander of the Combined Fleet, Vice Admiral Leffel, commanded with genius.

From the very beginning, the combined fleet was taken out of port, leaving the British and French untraceable. Then, after discovering the British and French reinforcements, he decisively stepped forward to stop the British Mediterranean Fleet that wanted to converge.

Among them, the huge role of airships is also fully displayed, although airships have shown their adaptability to various tasks on the battlefield, such as combat, transportation, reconnaissance, etc. However, naval warfare uses airships to fully grasp the perception of the battlefield, and this tactic is the first time that this tactic has appeared in front of everyone.

It is precisely because of the ubiquitous presence of Italian airships that every move of the British and French side is presented in front of the opponent. It can be said that it is precisely because of the presence of airships that the Italians can deal with it calmly.

It was also after the end of the Battle of Sirte that the navies of various countries expanded their airship units, and at the same time let the airships practice battlefield reconnaissance.

Of course, the revelations of this naval battle are not limited to airships, and the two lightning strike tactics in the naval battle are also amazing, especially Lefel's use of lightning strike tactics. Inflicting heavy damage on the Mediterranean Fleet, allowing it to sink four battleships of the Mediterranean Fleet before the reinforcements arrived, and then sailed away, leaving the British with a loss of their wives and soldiers.

Of course, the experience of the navies of various countries in learning from this naval battle is also different, but if there is any one whose navy is most anxious, it must be the German navy.

Berlin's Admiralty is bustling with people, and as the second largest navy in the world, it is naturally unusually busy.

At this moment, a car stopped at the door of the Admiralty building, and then three generals wearing generals came down.

At this point, an officer immediately stepped forward. "Admiral Ingnoor, Lieutenant General Scheer, Major General Hipper, the marshal is waiting for you, please come here."

It turned out that the three who got off the car were the three commanders of the High Seas Fleet.

Soon the three were taken to Tirpitz's room.

"Good day, Marshal."

"All sit, all sit."

After a brief greeting, Tirpitz looked at the three generals in charge of the German Navy in front of him.

"Our ally, Italy, fought a beautiful naval battle in Sirte, so His Majesty summoned me and asked about the High Seas Fleet."

Although Tirpitz said it easily, how could the three people present not know that there must be something wrong with His Majesty's summons at this time, but no one interrupted the speech of the founder of the High Seas Fleet.

"I understand what Your Majesty means, this is exerting pressure. But what a naval battle would look like, His Majesty did not know. So I would like to ask the three of you, is your fleet ready? ”

How could Tirpitz ask such a thing, weren't the battleships of the German High Seas Fleet fighting with British warships in the North Sea?

Yes, it is true that the German Navy did fight the British Navy several times in the North Sea, but these battles were between small and medium-sized warships. At the most intense time, the two sides of the battle patrol suppressed the formation, fired two guns to say hello, and then covered the retreat of the destroyer cruiser. That's right, the High Seas Fleet and the Home Fleet are so civilized, point to point.

The main reason for all this is that both sides have concerns, the home fleet is worried about the lack of superiority and is afraid of accidents, while the high seas fleet is on the one hand because of the British prestige at sea, as well as their own ideas are not in place, plus the pressure is not enough.

You must know that the original intention of the creation of the High Seas Fleet was to build a fleet that the British Navy would not dare to act rashly. Although the German Navy was gradually changing its thinking after the persuasion of Italy before the war, how could the thinking change so well. It can be seen from the actions of the German Navy since the beginning of the war that it has not yet shaken off this mentality.

As for the lack of pressure, unlike in history, Germany has been in an advantageous position since the start of the war, directly capturing Paris on the western front and defeating the Russian offensive on the eastern front.

Although Austria-Hungary has performed as always, there is one more Italy that can share the pressure on both land and sea.

It is precisely because of this that the German Navy is under less pressure.

Although the pressure is less, there are pros and cons to it.

First of all, it's good to have a capable ally, but if the ally is too good and you haven't had great results, then it's definitely not under more pressure than ever, let alone an emperor who expects a lot from him.

In fact, there is another problem, Wilhelm II likes the navy and also vigorously develops the navy, although it has the meaning of suppressing a dominant army, but if the navy does not achieve outstanding results on the battlefield, then after the end of the war, what will happen to the German navy?

Meritorious deeds are common in all countries, and the German Army has made a great name on the battlefield, so why should the Navy compete with it for funding in the future.

Although this may seem a bit incredible, this already takes into account the situation after the end of the war. But it's not impossible, it's very likely. This is not nonsense, but Tirpitz figured it out from the Kaiser's remarks and from himself.

That's why he summoned the three commanders of the High Seas Fleet.

"Marshal, all the officers and men of our high seas fleet are ready."

As the head of the High Seas Fleet, Admiral Ingnoll replied.

"Very well, in that case, then I hope that our high seas fleet will be ready to fight the British in the next three months."

"Yes, Marshal."

In the face of Tirpitz's order, what could the three people present say, of course, they could only agree.

Seeing that the Big Three of the High Seas Fleet had no opinion, Tirpitz asked at this time. "Do you have a suitable location?"

At this time, the commander of the battle patrol formation, Hipper, spoke. "How about the Dogle Sandbank, I lead the cruiser formation to encounter British warships here often, and we can completely pretend to attack the British mainland again, and lure the British over to fight."

Located in the southwestern part of the North Sea, with an average water depth of only 13 metres, the Dogger Sandbar is rich in fishery, and the shallow area is a traditional area for German fishermen.

Tirpitz, of course, also knew its location. "It's a good location to do pre-war preparations."

With Tirpitz's consent, the High Seas Fleet began to get busy.

First of all, the reconnaissance work in this area, German small and medium-sized warships and various airships began to frequently haunt the North Sea.

The British side was wary of the frequent actions of the Germans in the North Sea, and did not want to see the unscrupulous behavior of the other side, so the North Sea was lively for a while. Skirmishes between the two sides have occurred from time to time. Among them, there were also several battles between take-off boats over the North Sea.

The battle between airships can be more dangerous than that of warships, and the movement will either kill or be wounded, making the smoke of gunfire in the North Sea even more intense.
