Jagged Germany

Chapter 738: false alarm

??The sun slowly sank to the sea level, and the red sunset was reflected on the sea, which looked very beautiful. However, the wreckage of warships floating on the sea, as well as the dead island sailors, completely destroyed these aesthetics.

?? The smell of gunpowder smoke and blood in the air has not dissipated even at this moment.

?? "We won, General, we won the battle. The combined fleet of the island nation's navy no longer exists!" Rear Admiral Mao Fu looked full of vigor.

??Although the United Fleet of the island countries has fled back some destroyers, those destroyers are no longer a cause for concern. It can be said that all the vital forces of the island nation's navy were completely wiped out in this battle. Next, if the navy of the island country wants to rise again, it will take a lot of time to rebuild.

?? "Yes, we won! Our mission has been half completed. The next step is to force the island government to admit defeat!" Lieutenant General Spee said.

?? "The battle has come to this point, and their navy has already lost. Next, do they still have the capital to contend with us?" Rear Admiral Maofu is optimistic. At this time, the navy of the island country should choose to admit defeat. Because they no longer have the strength to continue fighting.

"No, I think they are likely to continue. You have no experience in the Far East, and you don't understand how strange the island people are. They are very paranoid, and they will never shrink back when they decide on something. Unless the price is too high for them to imagine. Otherwise, they will stick to it." Lieutenant General Spee said.

?? "General, do you mean that we have to continue to attack the coastal cities of the island country?" Major General Maofu asked. If possible, it is estimated that no general will make such a choice.

?? "Yes, we have to prepare for the worst." Lieutenant General Spee said.

"General, if the islanders are really obsessed with obsession, then we can't blame us. We have given them a chance, but they don't cherish it. It can't be our fault, only themselves! Since the islanders themselves don't Cherish their lives, why should we worry about it? Let them alone!" said Major General Maofu.

?? Lieutenant General Shi Pei thought about it, and it was indeed the same.

?? "By the way, those island sailors who fell into the water still refuse to accept our rescue?" Lieutenant General Spee asked.

??Because many warships of the combined fleet of island nations were sunk, there were also a lot of sailors who fell into the water. However, they were very backbone and rejected the rescue of the German expeditionary fleet. Would rather drown at sea than board the enemy's warship.

"Yes, General. They are really stubborn. The battle is over. Although they were defeated, it was not because of them, but because we were too strong. However, they wanted to end themselves with This is really terrible!" Major General Mao Fu said.

?? "Indeed, the islanders are such a terrifying nation! However, even so, if they dare to be enemies of the empire, their final fate will be very tragic." Lieutenant General Spee said.

?? "Yes, General. I have no doubts about this!" Major General Maofu nodded repeatedly.

?? "General, a telegram from the transport fleet!" A staff officer suddenly reported to them.

?? "What happened?" Lieutenant General Spey asked.

?? "The transport fleet was attacked by the islanders!" said the staff officer.

"what?"

?? Lieutenant General Shi Pei and Major General Mao Fu were shocked. As an expeditionary fleet, they don't have any supply points in the east now, so they won't be able to get any supplies. Once the transport ships of the transport fleet are sunk, they may have to retreat immediately. At the same time, we have to ask the country to immediately send a new transport ship to rescue them. Otherwise, once the fuel is exhausted, and the food and water are also exhausted, their fate can be imagined.

?? It is precisely because of this consideration that Lieutenant General Spee did not let the transport fleet and the main fleet act together. Although acting with the main fleet, you can get the protection of the main fleet. However, in fierce battles, the main fleet simply can't take care of them. And the transport ship is extremely fragile, often a single shell can severely damage it. The survivability on the battlefield is undoubtedly the lowest. Therefore, Lieutenant General Spei let the transport fleet hide in order to avoid being discovered by the navy of the island country.

?? Unexpectedly, it was found by the navy of the island country.

?? "General, our transport fleet was attacked by the island nation's navy. However, the fleet escorting the transport fleet has already defeated the island nation's navy. Therefore, the transport fleet is safe and sound!" the staff officer continued.

?? "Damn! You almost caused me to have a heart attack!" Major General Mao Fu yelled.

?? Lieutenant General Shi Pei also looked depressed, he was terrified just now. If something happens to the transport fleet, their operations against the island country will have to be suspended. This will be very unfavorable for Germany. Germany is too far away from the island country, and it will take a lot of time to send another fleet to the east. Who knows what the islanders will make Southeast Asia look like by then!

?? "General, you didn't ask clearly!" The staff officer was a little aggrieved.

?? "Okay, what's going on?" Lieutenant General Spee asked.

"Two hours ago, a formation of six destroyers from the island nation's navy spotted the convoy. They immediately launched an attack. However, we are fully escorted by two light cruisers and six destroyers! So The destroyer formation of this island navy was in bad luck. During the fierce battle, two ships were sunk by us, and one was severely damaged. The remaining three ships were mostly injured. It is precisely because of this that they Retreat!" The staff officer continued.

?? "Fortunately, the main force of the island nation's navy is in the combined fleet. If they find that there are more cruisers or even armored cruisers in the formation of our transport fleet, we will be finished!" Rear Admiral Mao Fu said.

?? Lieutenant General Shi Pei also nodded with lingering fear. Such a result is really too thrilling.

"God bless the German Empire! However, to be on the safe side, it is better to strengthen the **** of the transport fleet. Let the 'Moltke' and the warships escorting the 'Moltke' act together with the transport fleet! 'Moltke' The battle strength of the ship has not suffered any loss, so if the islanders want to continue attacking the transport fleet, it will be impossible." Lieutenant General Spee ordered.

?? "Yes, General, I will arrange it immediately." Major General Mao Fu nodded.
