As soon as such news came out, everything became extremely clear, which also caused the situation of the First World War, which had already reached a critical moment, to escalate instantly, because the combat effectiveness of the Far East Legion was really terrifying.
Because the history of the growth and development of the Far East Group is not a history of war. Starting from the Sino-French War, to the Korean War, and later the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War and the Somali Land and Sea War, the Far East Group fought all the way through, and the balance of victory will always be
Falling to the Far East Legion, whether it was France, one of the maritime powers, or the Tsarist Empire, the king of Eurasian land, they were all defeated in the end by the torrent armor of the Far East Legion.
However, after the blockade of the Mediterranean Sea was implemented, British and American ships continued to go their own way, as if they did not pay attention to the blockade of the Far East Corps at all. The Far East Navy did not take any forceful measures, but temporarily adopted phased interceptions and inspections.
.
Just when ships from various countries thought that the Far East Group was just bluffing this time, the Commander-in-Chief of the Far East Navy Liu Qinghui personally reported to Li Ningyu on the situation in the Mediterranean on the flagship of the Far East, East and West aircraft carrier battle group, the light aircraft carrier Shaanxi.
When Li Ningyu received the telegram, he was still in his villa on Diaoyu Island. After seeing the content of Liu Qinghui's telegram, he directly wrote a few big words on it and waited for three days for a reply from English and French, so that appropriate measures could be taken to control it.
With Li Ningyu's approval, Liu Qinghui naturally went to great lengths. After ordering the four light aircraft carriers of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Tibet to completely block the eastern Mediterranean sea, he ordered the Far East Southwest aircraft carrier battle group.
The two light aircraft carriers of Ningxia and Qinghai in the Northwest Aircraft Carrier Battle Group assist the Spanish Mediterranean Fleet in blocking the passage from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea.
In this way, the entire Mediterranean Sea became the Dead Sea. The passage from the Red Sea into the Mediterranean Sea was blocked by the Far East, West and South Aircraft Carrier Battle Groups, and the west side was blocked by the Spanish and Northwest Battle Groups. All ships entering the Mediterranean Sea were unable to move because of the blockade operation.
After the attack started, a reconnaissance plane taking off from the Sichuan aircraft carrier took the initiative to attack an American merchant ship after warning to no avail. Now ships from other countries became more honest.
For three days and seventy-two hours, the Far East Group spent amidst various protests and denunciations from various countries. But in these three days, something bigger than the Far East Navy's blockade of the Mediterranean happened.
It was a comprehensive naval war between Britain and Germany.
In fact, the main cause of this naval battle was the Far East Group, because after the incident in the Mediterranean, King Edward VII of England and Kaiser Wilhelm II both negotiated with Li Ningyu. They had only one purpose this time.
, that is the position of the Far East Group.
But Li Ningyu gave an ambiguous answer, which made both Edward VII and William II think that as long as they overwhelmed the other side, the Far East Group would join their camp, so they needed to use a war to win
The Far East Group took sides, so the Battle of Jutland took place.
The Battle of Jutland took place in a place called the Skagerrak in Germany. It was the first full-scale naval battle between Britain and Germany in the North Sea of the Jutland Peninsula. It was also the largest naval battle in World War I.
This large-scale naval battle was also the only decisive battle in which the main fleets of both warring parties were fully mobilized.
Before the war broke out, both sides had already had a comprehensive maritime combat plan, but they had been wandering around before. This time, in order to win over the Far East Group, they both took the initiative to find the other party to start a decisive battle.
As early as the early days of the First World War, although Germany had been strengthening its naval power, it still lagged far behind the British Navy in terms of the number of ships and displacement tonnage, especially the caliber and number of battleship artillery.
British Navy.
Therefore, in the two years after the start of World War I, Britain relied on its naval superiority to implement a naval blockade against Germany. The two main fleets of the British navy were like watchdogs, squatting at Scapafer at all times.
Outside the Port of Los Angeles, the German Atlantic Fleet kept a firm eye on the German Atlantic Fleet, leaving it trapped in Wilhelmshaven and Bremen harbors most of the time, becoming a veritable fleet.
At that time, the German High Seas Fleet only had 18 main battleships, while the British Royal Navy's Home Fleet had 33 battleships. In addition, as the war was ongoing, Germany could not add more battleships to the battle, so the German High Seas Fleet was unable to compete with the Royal Navy.
The home fleet engages in a large-scale fleet battle.
German naval commander Admiral Scheer, after receiving the order from Kaiser Wilhelm II, he immediately discovered to his dismay that the German Atlantic Fleet had been trapped by the British fleet. If he wanted to start a decisive battle, he would have to fight his way out.
Harbor, but facing the two powerful British main fleets, he knew that the result would be a lose-lose situation for both sides.
But William II's order was placed in front of him, and he had only one choice, either the German Atlantic Fleet was trapped in the harbor and did nothing, or he fought to destroy the two main British fleets.
Although the nature of soldiers is to be aggressive, the German naval commander Admiral Scheer avoided a full-scale battle with the stronger British navy, so Admiral Scheer formulated a bold and offensive battle plan.
First, a small number of German naval battleships and cruisers launched a series of strikes directly along the British coast. However, it was a hit-and-run attack tactic. The purpose was to induce part of the British home fleet to move forward, and then if the situation was not favorable to the German navy,
If favorable, concentrate the main battleships of the German High Seas Fleet to annihilate the British Royal Home Fleet.
After success, it is natural to deal with the two British fleets squatting outside the port of Scapaflor. By then, the German Atlantic Fleet and the High Seas Fleet can operate at the same time. As long as the two main British fleets are defeated in the decisive battle, then in the next five years
Within a few years, the German Navy had become Europe's number one maritime power.
Therefore, according to this combat plan, the German naval commander Admiral Scheer sent various types of battlecruisers, attack submarines and light bombers to make multiple surprise attacks on the east coast of the British mainland, and arranged for small ships to accompany the team to carry out the operation.
Operations such as minelaying and maritime reconnaissance in British waters.
The plan of Admiral Scheer, the commander of the German Navy, was mainly to lure the British Royal Navy into his trap. Then he must have enough bait, otherwise the British would not be fooled, so Admiral Scheer sent
German Admiral Hipper personally commanded the attack and lure squadron consisting of four battlecruisers and seven light cruisers.
According to the speculation of Admiral Scheer, the commander of the German Navy, the British would definitely not send the entire home fleet to intercept the limited invasion. Therefore, the entire main force of the German High Seas Fleet, commanded by Scheer personally, was actually fifty miles away.
Then, once the British Navy's Home Fleet sent some warships to attack, German Admiral Hipper would only provide symbolic resistance, and then turn the wheel and bring the British pursuers within the range of Scheer's Grand Fleet.
But in this incident, an unexpected situation occurred in the end, that is, the British Home Fleet was completely suppressed. This made the German naval commander Admiral Scheer a little at a loss because he was looking for the British decisive battle in Germany.
At that time, the British were also looking for a decisive battle with the Germans.
