Jagged Germany

  Irish Sea, Morecomb Bay. When the Royal Navy was defeated and the entire British Empire was under the blockade of the German Navy, the only sea they could still control was probably the Irish Sea. This sea area, between the island of Great Britain and the island of Ireland, is almost equivalent to the inland sea of ​​the British.

   Morecomb Bay is just a little-known remote place. But it is precisely because of this that it has become the final gathering place of the Royal Navy's sea power. Even Scapa Flow has become unsafe. Submarines and carrier-based aircraft of the German Navy would visit from time to time to launch attacks on Royal Navy ships. And the Royal Navy was powerless to do anything about it.

  In order to ensure the defense of Morecambe Bay, the Royal Navy installed a lot of anti-aircraft weapons around the naval port. At the same time, there is also an anti-submarine net. A large number of destroyers are also densely packed in the bay, ensuring that once German submarines sneak into it, they will be spotted immediately.

Now, the remaining capital ships of the Royal Navy only include the battleships 'Revenge', 'Resolution', 'Queen Elizabeth', 'War Spite', 'Warrior', 'Giant', 'Dreadnought' 'Battleship' and 'Tiger' battlecruiser. 7 battleships and 1 battlecruiser, although it is still a very powerful sea force. But compared with the heyday of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, it is already very different. With such power, even the basic security of the British Empire cannot be guaranteed.

  However, besides these warships belonging to the Royal Navy, there are also warships from the Kingdom of France and Italy in Morecambe Bay at this moment. Among them, the capital ships of the French Navy include three "Normandy-class" battleships, three "Brittany-class" battleships and four "Guba-class" battleships. The capital ships of the Kingdom of Italy are two battleships of the Duilio class, three battleships of the Earl of Cavour class and the battleship of the Dante. The capital ships of the kingdoms of France and Italy all came to prepare to fight with the Royal Navy. As members of the Allied Powers, the fate of these three countries is undoubtedly tied together. If they lose the war, their fate can be imagined. Therefore, they hope to win the naval battle and reverse the situation.

  British Admiralty Churchill rushed to Morecomb from London. Looking at the warships moored in the military port, Churchill was greatly moved.

   "It would be great if the flags flying on those battleships were all St. George's flags!" Churchill said with emotion.

   But it is a pity that the Royal Navy only accounts for one-third of the 24 capital ships in the military port. The other two-thirds are warships from France and Italy.

   "Your Excellency, as long as we can defeat the Germans in the next decisive battle. The Royal Navy will soon be able to return to its heyday, even stronger." Admiral John Jellicoe said.

  In the British shipyard, there are still a large number of cutting-edge warships under construction. However, subject to the fact that the British Empire was completely under the blockade of the German Navy, the construction progress of these warships became slower and slower. Because building warships requires a lot of steel and other resources. After the complete severance of overseas trade lines, Britain no longer has enough resources to build these warships.

  Churchill nodded: "Yes, although the Royal Navy has suffered heavy losses. However, we have not been defeated. Once we defeat the Germans, it will be time for the British Empire to rise again!"

  Although, there are many difficulties. However, Churchill never gave up hope.

   "Lieutenant General Martin, are they ready?" Churchill asked.

   "Your Excellency, the fleet led by Vice Admiral Martin has completed its preparations. As long as the order is issued, they can set off immediately." Admiral John Jellicoe reported.

  Lieutenant Admiral Martin is the commander of the fleet of twelve battleships purchased by the United Kingdom from the United States, and he is also the hope of the Royal Navy in future naval battles. If it weren't for these twelve battleships, the British would not have the confidence to fight a decisive battle with the German Navy.

   "Very well, this time we have reassembled thirty-six battleships. The Germans can definitely be defeated! As long as the Germans are defeated, the British Empire will regain victory in this war." Churchill said.

   "Your Excellency, I have no doubts about this!" Admiral John Jellicoe said.

   "By the way, General. General Cavison's fiasco at Le Havre, will he be punished?" Admiral John Jellicoe asked.

  The fleet led by Lieutenant General Cavison lost 21 pre-dreadnought ships and 13 armored cruisers in Le Havre. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Royal Navy. Of course, those former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers are outdated. However, the loss of personnel made the Royal Navy overwhelmed.

"It is true that someone in the cabinet proposed to send out General Cavison. However, I suppressed it. After all, our final naval decisive battle with the Germans is about to begin. Punish the important generals of the navy at this time. It's very suitable. It will have a negative impact on the morale of the troops. What's more, if we lose, then everything will be meaningless." Churchill said.

   Indeed, for the UK now. If you lose, even if Lieutenant General Caveson is hanged, it will be meaningless, and it will not prevent the defeat of Britain. If the battle is won, the losses of those former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers will also become insignificant.

  John? Admiral Jellicoe nodded, no more to say.

   "Report, General Lame and General Paul are here." A staff officer reported to Churchill and Admiral John Jellicoe.

   "Let them come!" said Churchill.

  Admiral Lame is the commander of the French fleet, while Admiral Paul is the commander of the Italian fleet. The two of them, as representatives of the kingdoms of France and Italy, will command their own fleets and participate in this decisive battle against the German navy.

   "Your Excellency, Your Excellency Commander." After Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul arrived, a warm exchange of greetings began immediately.

  After that, the topic turned to the main topic.

   "Your Excellency, our fleet has been here for several days. When can we fight the Germans?" Admiral Lame asked.

   Now the situation in France is very difficult. The French government is eager to have a decisive battle with the German Navy as soon as possible.

   "Your Excellency, Admiral, the United Fleet is also ready. Our plan can be implemented." Churchill said.
