Jagged Germany

   "Come on, prepare the car, I'm going to the Prime Minister's Office!" Churchill sat on the chair for a long time after reading the telegram. After that, he shouted to the secretary outside the door.

   "Yes, Your Excellency." The secretary hurried to get ready. He knew that Churchill must be in anger now. Therefore, he did not dare to anger Churchill. In that case, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.

   A few minutes later, Churchill got into the car and went to the Prime Minister's Office.

   When Churchill arrived at the Prime Minister's Office, it was already 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. Prime Minister Asquith had already rested. Although, the decisive battle between the Royal Navy and the German Navy is a major event related to the fate of the British Empire. But Prime Minister Asquith was getting old, so he couldn't stand it any longer, so he took a rest early.

   "Churchill, what's the matter, has the naval battle ended?" Prime Minister Asquith asked anxiously in his pajamas.

   "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I'm sorry, we failed!" Churchill said with a painful expression.

   "Failed? Did we really fail?" Prime Minister Asquith suddenly sat down on the sofa. Although, he had expected such a result a long time ago. But in his heart, he undoubtedly hoped that the Royal Navy could perform miracles and defeat the mighty Germans. In that case, the British Empire may win the war.

  Winning the war and being defeated are two completely different endings! If the glory of the British Empire wants to continue to be maintained, it must find ways to win this war. Otherwise, the British Empire would cease to exist. As for peace talks, make peace with the Germans and end this war decently. That has proven unlikely. The conditions put forward by the Germans last time were very harsh, and it was absolutely impossible for the British Empire to accept such conditions. That's why the British cabinet was determined to continue the war at that time, in an attempt to win on the battlefield, so as to preserve the interests of the British Empire.

   But now it seems that the performance of their army on the battlefield is still too bad!

   "Your Excellency Churchill, how much has our loss been? How much loss have we caused to the Germans?" Prime Minister Asquith asked. In his heart, there are still some expectations. If the losses of the Royal Navy were not too great, and they also caused relatively serious losses to the Germans, then they would undoubtedly not have lost badly in this naval battle.

  Churchill understood what Prime Minister Asquith meant, but this time he was destined to be disappointed.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. This time, the Royal Navy lost a lot. Almost all the capital ships that participated in the battle were lost. According to the battle report sent back by the Grand Fleet, 22 of our battleships and 5 battlecruisers were shot down by the Germans. Shen. Another three battleships and one battlecruiser were severely damaged. The cruisers and destroyers also suffered heavy losses. However, the losses we caused to the Germans were very slight. We only sank one German In addition, several battleships and battlecruisers were severely damaged. The losses of the German cruisers and destroyers were much smaller than ours." Churchill said bravely.

   "What? We have lost so much, but we have caused very little loss to the Germans. How is this possible? How can the Germans be so much better than us?" Prime Minister Asquith obviously couldn't accept this result. After all, this is too hard to believe. You know, before the outbreak of this war, the Royal Navy of the British Empire was still the overlord of the sea, the symbol of the most powerful sea power in the world! Although the German Navy is catching up, there is undoubtedly a big gap in order to catch up with the Royal Navy. But now, the Germans have beaten the Royal Navy of the British Empire to the ground through a few naval battles, and even the backbone of the Royal Navy has been interrupted. Such a result would definitely be unacceptable to anyone.

   "Mr. Churchill, are you joking, right? Although we failed, the loss must not be so great?" Prime Minister Asquith asked. How he wished Churchill was joking! In that case, the main force of the Royal Navy still exists.

"Your Excellency, I also really want to make this joke. But unfortunately, this is not a joke. It is a fact! The Royal Navy has indeed lost a complete defeat in this naval battle. We have nothing to do with it. There is no other way," Churchill said.

  The look of hope in Prime Minister Asquith's eyes disappeared immediately.

   "It's over, it's completely over. The British Empire is over this time!" Prime Minister Asquith couldn't help but said.

  Churchill was silent, and he also believed that Britain is now truly in crisis. If you don't pay attention, you will fall into a place of eternal doom.

"The navy failed to achieve the set goals, which makes us very likely to lose in this war. In this case, what should we do? Can we preserve the core interests of the British Empire?" Ah Prime Minister Squith murmured.

  Although, as the Prime Minister of the British Empire, he was once considered the most powerful person in the world. But now, when the British Empire is facing life and death, all the halo on him has faded away, replaced by panic and anxiety.

  If Britain loses this war, Prime Minister Asquith and all cabinet members will probably become sinners. At the same time, this also means that the power they have been enjoying for a long time will leave them. Such a result undoubtedly made them very unacceptable.

   "Your Excellency, the Royal Navy failed your expectations, I am really very sorry." Churchill said.

"Churchill, this is none of your business, and it's not even the reason for the Royal Navy. It's not that the officers and soldiers of the Royal Navy don't fight to the death, but that the Germans are too powerful! Over the years, there have been problems with the development of the Royal Navy, so that Our navy was overtaken by the Germans and passed us. It was no one's fault," Prime Minister Asquith said.

  Churchill nodded. Indeed, it is obviously inappropriate to attribute the responsibility to someone for this failure. However, losing is losing, and the British Empire is in a more difficult predicament because of this, and no one can change it.

   "Come on, call the other cabinet members immediately and discuss what we should do next!" Prime Minister Asquith ordered.
