    Betty didn't know that an invisible net had already covered himself and the remaining warships of the United Fleet. At this time, he was trying his best to deal with the Chinese warships that were like maggots attached to their bones. Under the cover of intensive firepower, a ship  From time to time, a Chinese destroyer flashed past the end of the searchlight pole. Every time they appeared, it meant that a deadly torpedo had been fired. Although the torpedo hit rate dropped significantly at such a distance, the number was equally deadly. From their attacks  From the beginning, in less than half an hour, ten battleships of various types were already attacking the blue waves, including two heavy cruisers.  -, ww¡ùw.23¡ðwx.co¡öm In order to expel these evil wolves, the destroyers and light cruisers in the combined fleet left the fleet and killed them, but unfortunately, they were immediately attacked by the Chinese who were outside the searchlight range.  Heavy cruisers and even battle cruisers shelled, and then each ship gradually disappeared from the sea with flames soaring into the sky.  Betty was able to confirm at this time that the Chinese had the technology to aim without turning on searchlights, but it was useless to know that. He could only hold on on the sea surface and at the same time determine the position according to the flash of the enemy ship's shelling to fight back, but this  There is no big point in fighting back. Unless you are lucky, it is difficult to hit the target. Just imagine how it is possible to hit the target if you cannot even determine the distance. No matter how experienced the gunner is, he cannot do this. The only use is to force those destroyers to sneak attack.  Don't dare to get too close, so that the hit rate of those deadly torpedoes can be lower, but the consumption of shells will be very serious.  ¡°There is no other way but this, otherwise most of our warships will be killed by torpedoes tonight.¡± He said helplessly to the officer who reported the ammunition consumption.  What he didn¡¯t know was that there would be a larger naval battle waiting for him after dawn.  The long night of sailing finally passed, and when the dawn appeared on the horizon, his fleet had only six battleships left, and even the cruisers and destroyers had lost more than one-third, but even so  , this fleet still has one hundred and twenty warships of various types. Of course, at least half of these warships are injured to varying degrees.  Fortunately, the attacks by the Chinese warships also stopped at this time.  This is understandable. After a whole night of fighting, with their terrifying rate of fire, the artillery shells were probably almost exhausted. The same was true for Betty. However, his results were pitiful, only sinking two destroyers and ramming another.  With great luck, he hit a heavy cruiser 20 kilometers away with a 305mm shell, but even this result caused him to consume almost two-thirds of the main gun shells.  "General. Can we still go back?" an officer said bitterly.  Betty did not answer. He could not answer this question. Since the Chinese battle cruisers had always followed them, the Chinese aircraft carriers had naturally followed them, which meant that he was about to usher in bombers that would cover the sky again.  There were also a total of seven fast battleships. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that until now, those seven fast battleships had not shown up.  "Where will they be?" The guy frowned at the chart. At this time, an officer next to him touched him and said: "General. No need to look for it, they are here." In the mist on the sea in the distance, a  The hazy shadows of the row gradually emerged, and the majestic bodies of the seven battleships became increasingly clear.  "Well. At least it's a fair fight." Betty said with a wry smile.  After a night of suffering on the sea, the extremely exhausted Allied sailors were awakened by the shrill sound of battle sirens, and found a powerful fleet blocking the front.  The sailors calmed down instead, as Betty said, at least it was a fair fight.  A real naval battle. They were not afraid of such a battle. The British, French and Italian sailors, who were tortured by Chinese carrier-based aircraft and battle cruisers and were so infuriated that they had high morale to fight, bravely rushed towards the enemy under the command of their young acting fleet commander.  .  At this time, a hundred kilometers behind them, carrier-based aircraft on the two aircraft carriers in Dingzhen were also pushed onto the runway facing the rising sun. They began to taxi with the sound of propeller rotation. Next to these two aircraft carriers, six aircraft  The battle cruisers who were fighting fiercely all night were standing side by side with a large supply ship. As the crane's boom rotated, large-caliber artillery shells were hoisted to the deck one after another, and then pushed into the ammunition depot by carts, and then waited.  The next battle is coming soon.  Although he did not see this scene, General Betty, who was rushing towards the enemy, could imagine it. However, at this time, he had no way out, he could only fight and fight with all his strength, even if he died in the sea.  Amidst the roars of countless battles, the Allied fleet fiercely charged at the enemies blocking their escape path. At this time, in the fleets of Spain, Brazil, and Argentina on the opposite side, one 280 naval gun was already spitting out flames.  Among the water columns stirred up by the explosion of the shells, six British and Italian battleships drew an arc on the sea very beautifully.With the roar of the five-millimeter naval gun, it sliced ??diagonally towards the enemy's rear.  The seven fast battleships on the opposite side quickly increased their speed to the limit of thirty-two knots and turned around at the same time on the sea. Soon both sides formed the most classic battle line and poured cannonballs at each other.  With the explosion of fire, an era slowly came to an end.  The fate of the Allied Combined Fleet has been doomed. They are now at least a thousand kilometers away from the Strait of Gibraltar. Even under normal circumstances, they have to sail for more than a day and night. During the day, there are battle fleets and air strikes, and at night, battle patrol formations attack at night. It is a long journey.  There may be one warship left behind for every kilometer forward during the voyage. Maybe they will eventually have some that can complete this journey, but the number will definitely not be too many. Even at this time, even the British cabinet has already transferred the main force of the navy.  The fleet was drawn out of their order of battle.  But even so, the Allied Powers are not ready to surrender to Yang Feng. His conditions are too harsh and there is no room for acceptance. The cession of territory is no longer important. The compensation of 30 billion gold pounds is fatal. This means that the Allied Powers Group Army  In the foreseeable future, we will forever be slaves to China, Germany, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and will never have a chance to stand up.  At this time, the Allies are no longer fighting for pure interests. They are fighting for their own future. Although they also understand that the enemy is too powerful, people can't help but have some illusions. Let's talk about the recent situation.  Judging from the battle situation, it is not that they have no possibility of blocking the Chinese on the battlefield. For example, in Chelyabinsk, the Russian army led by Archduke Nicholas firmly blocked the Chinese.  At this time, if we try our best to fight for it, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope?  Don't ask for too much, even if the amount of compensation is reduced to several billion, it is barely acceptable. Thirty billion, it makes people shudder just thinking about it.  Of course, the threat from the Chinese navy is also imminent. In order to deal with this powerful fleet, the British began to mine mines desperately. Almost all the ports they could think of were blocked with mines. In addition, in order to ensure the smooth flow of the English Channel transportation line, the British and French hands  All submarines, small destroyers, and torpedo boats owned are concentrated in the strait.  At this point, they are relatively confident. The two countries have hundreds of small warships in total, and the shipyards can continue to manufacture new ones, especially torpedo boats. Small boats of dozens of tons can be built very soon.  Well, with a high-power diesel engine or even a gasoline engine, it can easily run more than 30 knots, and with torpedoes, it can be a deadly weapon.  There is also air defense. All the major British arsenals are working hard to produce anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, especially the large-caliber anti-aircraft guns used to defend the liberators, 75, 88, 105, whatever they can think of.  If it's too late to build it now, just use the Army cannon to modify it, especially high-end products like time fuses are a priority.  There are also air-proof balloons. All the major industrial cities in the UK are filled with balloons of all sizes. Some balloons are even connected to each other with wires to protect them from high altitude to low altitude.  There are also fighter jets. Although they know that their performance cannot reach the level of China, a large number of fighter jets are still produced in factories. Anyway, this kind of wood plywood is also simple to manufacture.  "Your Majesty, it is said that the British are still developing a suicide plane specifically designed to hit the liberators, and are recruiting volunteers to pilot it." Attendant Yuan said to His Majesty the Emperor with a smile.  "Well, they are quite creative." Emperor Yang couldn't help but be speechless for a while. The poor baby actually forced himself to this point. This was following the rhythm of the Japanese in history. Of course, he also understood,  The British are just putting on a show, showing themselves their determination to fight to the end, and then adding leverage to negotiations. No one will really take this kind of thing seriously, and the British are not fools.  But since they have expressed this, of course they must be given a slap in the face and all the bubbles of their illusions must be burst.  Of course, there is nothing new about bombing London. The Liberator of Budapest Airport has been bombed more than a dozen times, and thousands of tons of light bombs were dropped. The people of London have long been accustomed to it, and it has no visual impact on them.  "How is the construction of Prague's airport going?" Emperor Yang asked.  "It's completed." Chief Yuan Shi said.  "So fast?" "Your Majesty, they already have a large airport there. Although it only provides fighter jets with take-offs and landings, because of its large scale, the runway only needs to be slightly extended," said Chief Yuan.  "Well, let's bomb Edinburgh and Glasgow. We will let the British people know that there is no place on their land that we cannot reach." Emperor Yang said with a hideous smile.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
