The speed of the battlecruisers ''Von der Tann'' and ''Leopold'' has been increased to 25 knots. This is close to the theoretical maximum speed. At this speed, the British fleet simply couldn''t catch up.


    Of course, those light cruisers and destroyers can catch up. But what if you catch up? The main guns of the two battlecruisers can easily tear these light cruisers and destroyers into pieces.


    As for lightning strikes, that is even more impossible. Around these two battlecruisers, there are also light cruisers and destroyers of the German Navy to protect them. It is impossible to get close enough to release the torpedo, let alone sink the two battlecruisers of the German Navy with torpedoes.


    Lieutenant General Martin led the British fleet to pursue, but found that he could not catch up, so he had to give up.


    "Damn the Germans, they escaped!" Lieutenant General Martin watched the cooked duck fly away, almost gnashing his teeth in hatred. But he had to, there was no other way. In the duel between battleships and battlecruisers, it is not so easy to win aplete victory. Once the situation is not good, the battlecruiser can use the speed advantage to leave the battle. The battleship can only look at the departing battlecruiser and yell, but there is no other way.


    However, it still sank a battlecruiser of the German Navy, which is considered a victory for the British fleet. After all, in the previous decisive battle, they lost so many capital ships, but they only sank a battleship of the German Navy.


    "Send a telegram to themander, tell them that we have sunk one of the German battlecruisers, but the other two have escaped, and we cannot catch up. Now, we will continue north as nned!" Martin Zhong will order.


    ording to the scheduled n, after the fleet of Vice Admiral Martin wiped out the three "Blücher-ss" battlecruisers of the German Navy, it will continue to go north to face the other nine battlecruisers of the German Navy''s breaking fleet going south. . Now, although only one battlecruiser of the German Navy was sunk, the other two battlecruisers have been driven away. If they want to join the main force of the German Navy''s break-off fleet, they have to go around a big circle, which will take a lot of time. If you are lucky, the fleet led by Lieutenant General Martin may be able to encircle and wipe out the main force of the German Navy''s break-through fleet together with the main force of thebined fleet.


    General John Jellicoe and Lieutenant General David Beatty remained silent for a long time after receiving the telegram from Lieutenant General Martin. Although, sinking a battlecruiser of the German Navy is undoubtedly something to be happy about. However, the other two escaped battlecruisers made their victory less than perfect. At the same time, it also added a lot of variables to this decisive battle.


    "Your Excellency, Commander, now we seem to have no other choice but to proceed ording to the original n. If the German breaching fleet continues to go south, we may seize the opportunity to eliminate them. If the German breaching fleet If we don’t go south again, then we will have to prepare for a decisive battle with the German main fleet!" Lieutenant General David Beatty said.


    Admiral John Jellicoe nodded: "The Germans have now lost one battlecruiser, and two more battlecruisers are temporarily unable to participate in the battle. Their broken fleet has only 9 battlecruisers left And they already know that we already have 12 new battleships. Adding our original battleships, they will definitely not act rashly."


    "If we wait until the main German fleet arrives, then we will have to face the huge German fleet with 23 battleships and 11 battlecruisers." Lieutenant General David Beatty said.


    "In that case, it will be very difficult for us to win!" Admiral John Jellicoe''s face darkened.


    Although, under such circumstances, thebined fleet still has the advantage of two ships in terms of the number of capital ships. However, the overall performance of the warships of the German Navy is even better. Overall, the Combined Fleet is still at a disadvantage. Not to mention, German aircraft may also participate in the war. In that case, their chances of winning are even smaller.


    "No matter what, this is a rare opportunity for us. If we give up this opportunity, the Germans will be prepared. It will be impossible to defeat the Germans again. What''s more, we also have There is not much time left. Victory must be achieved as soon as possible," said Admiral John Jellicoe.


    Lieutenant General David Betty nodded: "In this case, let''s act ording to the original n! It would be great if we can get rid of the German fleet first. Even if we can''t solve it, then we have Enough strength to fight the Germans again. Perhaps our luck will not be as unlucky asst time. As long as our luck is a little bit better, we may not have the possibility of defeating the Germans."


    John? Admiral Jellicoe nodded in agreement.


    The main force of the United Fleet has entered the Antic Ocean at this moment. However, they will not join the fleet led by Vice Admiral Martin until they encounter the German Navy''s breaking fleet.


    The escaped battlecruisers ''Von der Tann'' and ''Leopold'' have already reported to the gship that they encountered twelve American battleships. The sinking of the battlecruiser "Blücher" is even more distressing.


    After Admiral Reinhardt Scheer and Lieutenant General Hipper heard the news, their faces were very ugly.


    "Damn Americans, they actually handed over all the warships in active service to the British. Don''t they worry about us attacking them?" Lieutenant General Hipper said angrily.


    "Of course the Americans don''t have to be afraid. The Antic has given them good protection. In addition, the Americans have begun to expand the size of the army. We can''t attack the United States rashly. Therefore, they can support the British unscrupulously." Lai Admiral Inhard Scheer said.


    "So, Your Excellency Commander, what should we do now?"


    Admiral Reinhardt Scheer thought for a while: "Now, the strength of the British navy has recovered more than half. The 12 American battleships, plus their previous remaining battleships, have a total of 19 battleships and 1 battlecruiser. .If the break-off fleet continues to go south, I''m afraid it will be ambushed by them. Send a telegram to Lieutenant General Spee, telling him to stop going south and wait for the main fleet to arrive. This time, it will be thest decisive battle between us and the British. We must We mustpletely defeat them and win the final victory!"
