"Admiral, Admiral Scheer, this is an opportunity, we can't just give up in vain, they have been defeated!"

Speer rushed at Reinhardt. Admiral Scheer cried out loudly, he could not tolerate the admiral before him giving up the great opportunity to annihilate the British Home Fleet.

"I think we can keep chasing them, even to their naval base, even if tonight's attack may not work, but understand? As long as tomorrow dawn, we can send their entire fleet to the sea and blow up their naval base by the way! ”

In the eyes of Vice Admiral Speer, the British were the sworn enemies of the German Ocean Fleet. It was not clear to him whether Britain would perish as long as they were destroyed, but Germany could at any time force the British to withdraw their expeditionary forces on the continent.

It was as if he had seen it, early tomorrow morning. The German Ocean Fleet would chase the lead ships of the British Home Fleet that had taken refuge in port to avoid air raids. Even if they can't completely annihilate the British home fleet, let them understand that without enough air power, it is impossible for them to go to sea again.

Felix who followed him. Feng. Captain Luckner looked at him with some concern, worried that something unpleasant would happen to the grumpy Vice Admiral Speer who was about to go berserk. In the German Navy, the requirements for obedience to discipline were very strict.

As for his personal opinion, now the British would have torpedoed the capital ships of the German "Ocean Fleet" with some cruisers and those small destroyers, so as to cover the retreat of their capital ships.

In fact, the admiral was a little too worried about the enemy's ability to attack, which he suspected was caused by the heavy psychological pressure that the British Navy had long inflicted on the German Navy.

Although the destroyers were quite fast, and their torpedo attacks were a cause for concern in the darkness of the night. But if a few more British capital ships can be destroyed, then at least in the North Sea, the British fleet may not cause more trouble. If such an outcome could be achieved, the German "Ocean Fleet" would be able to carry out the coveted task of blockading British sea transport.

However, Reinhardt in front of him. Admiral Scheer apparently did not think so, and simply ignored Vice Admiral Speer's loud voice. He held up his binoculars and watched as his fleet was slaughtering the swarming British destroyers, and it seemed that he was quite satisfied with the result at the moment.

"Please send a signal that the rest of the troops, except for the 'Sea Hawk Swarm', will use long-range artillery fire as much as possible, and at the same time ask them to be careful to guard against torpedoes fired by the opposing destroyers!"

Reinhardt. Scheer was so happy with today's result that he was reluctant to fight any further. The loss of a battlecruiser was already painful in his flesh.

Now that the task of opening the outlet to the sea has been completed, the remaining days are only necessary to do a good job of defending the outlet to the sea with some powerful battleships or battle cruiser formations, as the British Navy did.

Faced with this situation, he was really unwilling to take these precious capital warships of the German Navy to play a game of cat and mouse with those British destroyers.

After giving the order, he turned around and saw Lieutenant General Speer with a blue face.

"General, or you should go and rest, or you should go back to your fleet!"

In order to prevent the interruption of the attack, Speer came to meet the admiral on a motorboat, which he did not expect at all. In particular, Admiral Scheer was somewhat unceremonious when he issued the "eviction order", and he knew that he really had to provoke the "old sailor" to anger.

In desperation, I had to silently ask Reinhardt. Admiral Scheer gave a military salute and walked out of the war room with his head bowed. His adjutant Felix. Feng. Captain Luknar, likewise silently following him. He heard the disappointed lieutenant general muttering to himself.

"Oh my God, we're going to lose this war!"

In fact, this time Reinhardt. Scher, the "old sailor", did not make the right decision.

First of all, because of the confidence in its own navy, the British did not have too many long-range coastal batteries in their military ports. Even if there were, in the early hours of tomorrow morning, in a hurry, it would not be possible to cope with the concentrated fire of the German "Ocean Fleet" on the sea. As well as the bombs dropped by the "Mosquito water attack planes", if Schell had brought in some airships that could carry larger bombs in due course, the battle situation would have been even more satisfactory.

As for the air defense of the port, although there are some large-caliber anti-aircraft guns against airship bombing, these guys are not as effective as machine guns against low-altitude invading torpedo machines.

If the Ocean Fleet follows this time, then the rest of the capital ships of the British Home Fleet will be in danger. In particular, the sunken main ships blocked the shipping lanes of the port, and at least the British home fleet would not give them trouble for a long time.

It was because of these factors that the commander of the British "Home Fleet", John . Admiral Jericho wanted the old ironclads, as well as cruisers and destroyers, to stop the pursuit of the German "Ocean Fleet" at all costs.

And he knew that even if he was lucky enough to bring back these cherished capital ships, the home fleet would only be able to carry out back-to-back defensive operations in the harbor for a long time.

Until he had enough anti-aircraft guns on the warship, he also needed more cover from fighters that could be carried on the warship. Otherwise, without these things, there would be no way to get a long time with the German "Ocean Fleet", which completely updated its methods of warfare.

"Mr. Admiral, the Germans are not pursuing, they are only engaged with our cruisers and destroyers."

He had been worried that the Germans would come back to his senses, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief and quietly thanked God in his heart.

"Order the main fleet to retreat at full speed, and send a report to the country, telling them that we have lost the war, and asking them to strengthen the air defense measures in the port as soon as possible, especially against the small-caliber rapid-fire artillery fire of those hateful aircraft!"

The young officers of the British Royal Navy, who were already red-eyed in the losses, did not want to carry out this order, they wanted to delay until nightfall, after defeating the enemy's air power, and then meet the German "ocean fleet".

John. Admiral Jericho's eyes widened and he glanced at the officers around him, his face as pale as that of Vice Admiral Speer. He shouted at the angry-eyed men with his mouth open, hoping to wake them up from their blind impulses.

"Execute the order, and the capital ships immediately retreat! Do you want me to say it a second time? ”
