To maintain a high speed for a long time, every capital ship of the fast fleet has more or less power problems, and the tail of the fleet has been hit hard and lost speed. General Lampard can keep the fast fleet at a low speed of about 14 knots.
Lampard has realized that the Royal Navy’s fiasco can be avoided, so it may break out in the defense of British soil. Every capital ship of the large fleet is particularly important. The senior British naval officer Ri does not leave the empire to retain more vitality. Lampard is duty-bound!
Since the fast fleet guessed that West Lyme would send the first reconnaissance group to pursue it to a certain extent, General Lampard naturally dared not let the fast fleet swagger out of the southern coastline of some British Scottish peninsulas and directly return to Scarpa Bay, but let the fast fleet make a big circle eastward along the offshore of the peninsula and guess that the first reconnaissance group would give up the pursuit before readjusting its course to the north.
It’s a pity that people are not as good as the sky. When the waves are many, the formation is folded and the formation turns. Major General haneke didn’t chase the fast fleet at all. The idea was to draw a straight line by hand on the chart, and the result just crossed the fast fleet route
Lieutenant Roddick, the North Sea is too quiet. Any news from the British?’
Admiral Rodman, the commander of the battleship Vader, the only American naval commander who can come up with a hand, finally became anxious.
The latest newspaper reported half an hour ago that the British Admiralty reported that they had lost a battleship and two old-fashioned battle cruiser, sank two German battleships with sā class and hit him hard. The two sides were undergoing complex steering and adjustment.’
Lieutenant Roddick, who is in charge of intelligence, pointed to the chart to demarcate the battlefield position and speculated
General, it’s only been half an hour since we fought with reference to the naval experience of Ritland, and the battlefield situation should not have changed much.’
The British did a good job.’ I’m a little sorry for the sinking of the American battleship Hong Kong, Major General Rodman, but I have to admit that two old-fashioned war cruisers and an export warship were exchanged for two heavy casualties in Germany. The British did a good job. Major General Zamo Zamo looked at the rough chart and said faintly,’ Considering that the British and German fleets are fighting in the direction of south speed, we are likely to join the battlefield in half an hour. Remember to break the fleet line in 15 minutes and ask the British about the specific battlefield situation. I need to evaluate the angle and timing of cutting into the battlefield.’
Until the fleet chief of staff nodded Rodman, Major-General, he turned around and encouraged his colleagues in the headquarters.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first ship-fearing war of the United States Navy, which is of great significance to the Stars and Stripes Fleet. We have betrayed the name of undeclared war, and we must do our utmost to win the victory and erase this disgraceful history!’ "To be continued.

(Tell me about this plan. I’m going to end the naval battle in orkney in two festivals, and then there will be a splendid Berlin mutiny, which will end in armistice, leading role, brandeis Jr., World War II and Katherine. About 50,000 to 60,000 words will not be considered as a bad ending …)
"("The King of the North Atlantic "Section American Tragedy)
As the Americans arrived at the battlefield, it was lonely for a little while, and the North Sea became lively again. All kinds of rumors and reports were flying all over the place. The large fleet, the ocean fleet, the fast fleet and the first reconnaissance group joined hands to perform a dazzling battle without knowing each other.
However, this is a completely chaotic war. Throughout the history of the naval battle of fearing ships, it seems that there is nothing more chaotic than the first battle of the German and American navies with Mars hitting the earth. Even the naval battle of ustica Island in the Mediterranean, which is known as "chaos", is comparable.
At 14: 04, it cut into the northern edge of Firth Bay at a high speed and headed southwest. There was a plume of smoke near the coastline of the Scottish Peninsula on the starboard side of the unexpected fleet of the American battleship detachment.
Americans are puzzled about the smoke plume rising from the sea level. From the height of the smoke plume, it is definitely not the effect of a warship’s soot. It is more like the explosion of an army ammunition depot in the coastal waters or the fire of a capital ship. Judging from the position of the smoke plume, there is no place in the chart where there is even a decent harbor, and it is unlikely that there will be an ammunition depot, let alone a large warship in that shallow sea.
Many years later, Americans learned that it was the Royal Navy’s Undaunted patrol through the British Empire. The old battle cruiser, German Seidlitz and Mao Qi, which were badly wounded and billowed with smoke, pursued relentlessly and had to run aground on the coast of China.
At that time, Americans found from textual research that the American battleship detachment lacked the support of light cruisers and destroyers, and because of the lack of necessary means to detect the battlefield, it was able to retain the curiosity of cowboys and continue their thrilling journey.
Of course, the discovery of that plume of smoke was not the result of it. The Americans woke up and warned those novices who had not fired a shot since the Spanish-American War that they were afraid of the sea. This is the most terrible battlefield, and the opponent is not a target ship
Four minutes later, at 14: 44, the guilty Americans broke the battlefield line as planned and silently called the flagship revenge of the British Admiralty’s Firth Bay battlefield fleet in London to wait for the’ master’ to show his sword.
The newspaper was sent out, and the cowboys’ enthusiasm and ambition were barely brewed, but they kept silent when calling and conquering the object.
We expect the scheduled battlefield to have a 15-minute voyage, in other words, our American fleet’s towering main guns will be dispatched in 15 minutes at most, but it happened that we British people lost contact at this time.
At first, we had a problem with the Wada Line. Although the reporter and the maintenance technician rejected this statement, the Fleet Command could not find a more convincing point of view. Now it seems that this statement is ridiculous, absurd and disastrous. However, there is no battlefield information. We didn’t think of him. Maybe it is difficult for us to believe that the British Admiralty has been captured by Irish thugs or the German army. In the naval battle of the Royal Navy Orkney Islands, the army was destroyed and even a flagship with a line could not be taken out?
The telegraph operator and the maintenance technician scrambled for nearly fifteen minutes with the telegraph office and the antenna, and we also waited for nearly fifteen minutes for the commander of the Huada, Tarku. It was not until my chief of staff reported that it was three o’clock in the afternoon that I realized that the situation was not good.
I can imagine how bad the actual situation is. The British Admiralty and the flagship line of the big fleet are paralyzed or out of control at the same time. I know that we have traveled all the way across the North Atlantic to the North Sea with the stigma of undeclared war. Undoubtedly, we underestimated the ocean fleet and Heidi Selim, and almost plunged into the unfathomable Firth with battlefield information and battlefield support. We should be heroes, but now the American fleet is likely to be the most generous and generous in the century. What a fool! ’
Major General Rodman, commander-in-chief of the American Battleship Unit, described the situation of the Stars and Stripes fleet before it met the Germans in his personal memoir "My World War I 1917"
Major General Rodman then took a series of measures, such as slowing down the American battleship unit and letting the lookout closely monitor the North Sea Fleet, ready to release the water plane Huada and release the steam boat to investigate the relative position and move the smoke column on the north side, and urgently contacted the National Navy Department.
After the implementation of a series of measures, Americans still feel uneasy. They hold their breath and look at the raging North Sea in horror, lest the Germans jump out to harvest the American battleship detachment with only four capital ships.
It is also in this atmosphere that the lookout reported that two or three life-saving sampans were found on the waves in front of the port side of the fleet.
It doesn’t matter whether you are an enemy or a friend. The important thing is that it is far from the coastline and near the sea. Without his steam power and sail power to drive the boat, Americans have the right to help those poor people.
Not after the fierce argument, the wind and the grass are tense. Major General Rodman sent another steam boat to meet each other with the humanitarian J and jīng God.
The emperor will compensate Major General Rodman, knight J Ο ng, and those small sampans in the sea were sunk by three mackensen-class patrol ships of the first team of the German First Investigation Group at about 12: 53 in the sea battle of the Orkney Islands.
Americans, their cousins refused to be captured by German destroyers without communication barriers. Fortunately, the American cousins helped to board the gangway of the USS Huada.
Major general Rodman, the six gods, came from the command tower with great expectation in an attempt to get some good news from the British sailors, but he was greeted by a bolt from the blue.
General Bellerophon sank, Canada sank, Neptune sank, and the first battleship was finished!’
Ten minutes later, another steam boat was sent back, and the sailors pointed to the north in horror and stammered
General, it was a badly wounded British enemy-class patrol that ran aground in the shallow waters of its coastline …’
Plus, the British Admiralty had previously reported that the British had lost (damaged) seven less capital ships, and the Americans finally lost contact with the White Fleet.
The Americans are really panicked, and the other side is satisfied with the pursuit of the German fleet.
Although the main fleet of the ocean fleet bit the battleship Revenge, it failed to keep the fourth battleship. His two revenge classes and two iron duke class kept the last vitality of the main fleet of the big fleet. The North Sea letter hand drew a route that cut across the British fast fleet earlier than Lieutenant General haneke and his first reconnaissance group, and this move was discussed on paper. We later became the eternal regret of the Orkney Islands naval battle several times.
In fact, even if the first investigation group broke through the West Lyme for half an hour, they might not be able to stop the British who set off nearly 50 minutes before the first investigation group. However, we are used to looking at the past history from a commanding height, blaming the "incomplete" naval and army landing plan for Germany’s bankruptcy (the so-called sea lion plan) and the patrol and anti-break battle between Germany and Britain that continued from June to October on the naval battle in the Orkney Islands.
The only thing worth noting at the end of the Orkney Islands naval battle is the’ disabled detachment’ composed of four battleships that have lost speed.
At 15: 27, a destroyer detachment and a medium-sized destroyer slowly sailed towards the scheduled rendezvous point of the ocean fleet. This was originally a heroic triumph after a brilliant victory, but in the north of Firth Bay, they accidentally encountered several plumes of smoke rising from the sea level.
Although the direction and course are wrong, the northeast fleet can also be the first reconnaissance group at this time.’ The captain of the Bavarian battleship looked at the fleet that collided head-on in the northeast and wondered,’ The first reconnaissance group turned its course and returned to the battlefield instead of rushing to the rendezvous point. What the hell is wrong with you than General haneke?’ "To be continued.

(I have something to leave school for, what’s the super trouble? Let’s talk about it later today …)
"("The King of the North Atlantic "Section American Tragedy)
The Germans must want to get back at us for sinking the Von DeThane and the blucher in the naval battle in Shazhou, Dogel, and persevering in pursuing us. More than 500 officers and men of the ship, the Unbearable, were ordered to be the captain. I was lucky that the Unbearable ran aground on the beach. It was unfortunate that the old ship ran aground at the minimum cost after a violent shake, because we didn’t know how to go home …’
Betty your legend’s battle line accelerated our cover to evacuate the battlefield. We acted according to General Betty’s orders. Although we lost the patrol of the Hope and the Resistance, it effectively supported the retreat of the main fleet. Now the fast fleet is retreating, and the Germans don’t seem to be chasing us …’
The main fleet temporarily dumped the Germans, but the flue of the flagship Revenge was seriously damaged. It was dangerous that Firth Bay gradually lost its speed and was caught off guard. I had to abandon my flagship and move my headquarters to the Indian Emperor …’
Revenge looks bad. It has completely lost its power. It is besieged by more than a dozen feared German ships. The bow turret of the ship was pierced by an armor-piercing bullet. Fire, smoke and toxic gas spread all over the deck hull. About a lot of seawater made this warship with excellent protection lean to the left. We can wish Revenge … good luck in its predicament.’
The destruction of the revenge is inevitable. Long live the revenge. God save the king!’
On June 21, 2007, the British naval headquarters was famous for its serious and conservative atmosphere, and the information about the war was paralyzed again because of the surge. The news of the fiasco in the Scarborough Gerakl Strait in 1915 was so dead and depressing. Although the news of the defeat in the Orkney Islands in 1917 has not been completely confirmed, the British people have been able to sort out a little mess, so several old brick-red Se buildings in the London naval headquarters are filled with unspeakable words, which are more dignified, defeatist and self-destructive than those after the defeat in the Scarborough Gerakl Strait in 1915.
On the eve of the naval battle, the Germans, as always, used tactics to cheat and play the whole British fast fleet like a clown, rushing back and forth in the North Sea in vain; Abandoning the convergence of the American battleship detachment, the big fleet, the big fleet, the main fleet, the front south, and the result was limited to hitting the German herringbone head-on near the Royal Navy’s lair.
Nothing is more frustrating than being played with by West Lyme over and over again. After the naval battle broke out, except for the brilliance of the first German detachment, the Royal Navy was demoralized and collapsed. The first battleship fleet was destroyed by seven main battleships. The fourth patrol fleet lost two old-fashioned patrol boats, and the indomitable patrol ran aground on the beach and narrowly escaped. The second battleship escaped from the battleship St. Vincent without authorization, and more than seven battleships sank at the most j Ο ng sharp. The fourth battleship, including the flagship Revenge, sank four battleships. First, the fast fleet was attacked by German water wolves in the south of Firth Bay and lost a patrol of King Kong, and then lost the patrol of Hope and Resistance in the cover battle.
Twenty-three capital ships are not the final loss figure of the Royal Navy. Although the London Naval Headquarters subjectively does not want this figure to continue to expand, what is the difference between objectively losing twenty-three capital ships and the collapse of the army? ! Ri ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì ì !
In the past few hours, the six gods of the London naval headquarters have panicked. To be exact, the whole British island doesn’t know where they should go. Even the most rampant Johannes dare not say anything. They still have the strength and time to rebuild a big fleet. Without the big fleet, should the empire continue to fall?
At 14: 45 and 15: 25, the emergency call of the US Battleship Unit naturally flooded the tons of newspapers at the London Naval Headquarters until the Americans panicked on the other side of the ocean through the naval attache in London.
Only then did the British remember that there was an American battleship detachment on the battlefield.
But the actual fast fleet speed is not as fast as Major General haneke imagined, and the escape distance is not as far as he imagined.
