[Acknowledge that there is a bit of Kaven recently, but it has been the prelude to Jutland. Everyone is looking forward to it!]

"The sudden attack of the Imperial Navy Minister detonated a political storm. Not only was the Navy staff exhausted, but the Ocean Fleet was also in a mess, and the training and combat readiness were almost in a mess. At this time, the British on the other side of the North Sea kept adding ships and guns. Your old friend David Betty got two fast battleships and couldn't wait to resume combat cruises in the Battle Cruise." Wang Heidi welcomed his old friend into his commander's room. Before the thick coffee was served, Erich Redel spoke comforting: "I don't think this can continue. You must know that the strong fortress is always broken from the inside. You must know that we are involved in a war that concerns the destiny of the country for a hundred years! Sileme, before I set off, Prime Minister Bateman Holwig and Chief of General Staff Boer came to me, and they promised me that they could end the naval political storm!"[]

"End?" Wang Heidi put down the coffee cup, groped out of the half-closed cabinet with a letter still filled with ink fragrance, shook her head and said unyieldingly: "No, this is just the beginning!"

Redell took the letter, and after a brief scan, he had changed his face. He pulled out the paper and his figure shook violently.

"Resignation letter?! Silem, during the war, neither the Minister of the Navy Capelle nor the Minister of the Navy Cabinet Mueller, nor the Emperor's Majesty cannot shake your status in the navy. Since the Prime Minister and Chief of Staff promised to save everything, why should we still pretend to retreat and advance?!" Redel couldn't help but crumpled the resignation letter into a ball, throw it into the dark corner of the cabin, and said in anger: "Since this magnificent land of Germany has created you, the water of the Elbe River and the legacy of Mr. Humboldt cultivated you, you have the responsibility and obligation to protect this country and nation, protect this land and its people! Enlarge the situation. This is a crime against the navy, a crime against the nation, and you are a disguised treason!"

"But I need to eliminate all interference!" The old friend's merciless question made Wang Heidi feel a little annoyed. He took a few steps and opened the half-closed cabinet door. The otaku said angrily: "One fearless class, three Berlerofon class, three Saint Vincent class, one Neptune class, two Giant class, three Orion class, three British King George V class, four Iron Duke class, two Queen Elizabeth class battleships, two Invincible class, two Lion class, and one Tiger class battle patrol. In February, the Scarpa Bay Fleet can use 27 main battleships at any time. After the Battle of the Falkland Islands, the British will inevitably draw the tireless class battle patrol on the South Atlantic back to their homeland to enrich the battle patrol fleet. By the end of March, the number of main battleships in the large fleet will reach an astonishing 28-29 ships! In 1915

From the second half of the year to 1916, the British will successively obtain three Queen-class battleships, five Revenge-class battleships, one Canadian battleship and three prestige-class battleships, not to mention the Mediterranean Fleet's Agincourt and Ireland battleships. At that time, the number of Royal Navy's main battleships would be a terrifying 41. And we have only 17 battleships and five battleships. Before 1917, the Ocean Fleet could only obtain two Bavarian-class battleships and one Deflinger-class battleship. The number of German-English main battleships is 41:25! Maybe we can expect three Markens and two remaining Bavarian-class battleships, but their completion date will be as fast as 1917. At that time, maybe the Hood and Nelson-classes of the British had been completed and put into service!”

The door of the cabinet that still holds the pipa was torn open, and the three-story filing cabinet was filled with documents, and there were piles of shocking calming drugs and sleeping pills. Erich Raidel raised his hand to try to do something, then lowered his hands depressedly and chose to remain silent. The undefeated Ares, everyone hoped to make achievements and celebrate his past lives, everyone was the title of the God of War, and everyone believed that Heidi Silem was the darling of God and war, but how many people knew the origin of the secret behind glory!

"November 1914 was the weakest period of the Royal Navy since the German-English naval arms race. Under the operation of General Ingnor and General Hessendorf, the Navy took the risk of launching a Trafalgar-style decisive battle aimed at surrounding the points and killing part of the large fleet, and even severely damaged the large fleet. Unfortunately, it failed. In 1915, the Battle of the Dardanelles detained most of the British's energy and allowed the two main battleships to

The Mediterranean cannot move; Queen Elizabeth-class battleship has just been completed, and it is still a while before it can be put into service to form combat effectiveness; the Battle of the Falkland Islands greatly damaged the vitality of Earl Spey's East Asian fleet, but after all, it can still contain one or two British battle patrols. Even if the tireless class who returned to the local area to travel day and night, it will take nearly a month after all. Redell, this is an opportunity. The Ocean Fleet will break the British and have the last chance to block the long-range blockade! It almost never comes again!"

February 18, Berlin.

In the early morning, small snowflakes floated on the streets of Berlin. Employees of Berlin Power Company followed the dazzling circuit lines to clean up the ice. Municipal workers were busy cleaning the snow on the roads on William Street. Black naval vehicles slowly drove into Charlottemberg Palace along the roads sweeping out by workers.

The report of the investigation team for the Brunswick thunder and sinking accident was on the emperor's desk. Without surprise, the investigation report written by Heidi Sileme's old friend Erich Redell was full of praise for the undefeated Ares. The emperor, who was busy with affairs, had no time to carefully browse the investigation report of the flowers. What really made him miss was the letter attached to the end of the investigation report.

"The criticism from Berlin is not groundless. Since some people think that I am no longer suitable for serving the Empire, and I am not the kind of person who is obsessed with power and cannot go, then, I, Heidi Sileme, former commander of the First Reconnaissance Fleet, and Lieutenant General of the Imperial Navy, had to give up all his posts and glory and return to his hometown, Kiel. Long live the Ocean Fleet, Long live the German Empire, and Long live His Majesty William!"

It is said that he had rejected the admission notice for philosophy at the University of Berlin and resolutely chose the naval strategist Heidi Silaime, who was a naval strategist at the Kiel Naval Academy, who was still so soft and charming. However, the sparse pen and ink were all sharp and sharp, and he kept pushing the emperor back to the corner of history.

"Silem!" The redecorated Qing vase was smashed again. Before the attendant George Philip Taylorman stepped into the study, William's roar and anger resounded throughout the Charlottemberg Palace: "God, this damn fisherman's miscellaneous family rejected the emperor's humility. He actually tried to make the king of the Hohenzollern family slapped himself hard! He, he is really Minzer of William's era!"

Due to a good education, the emperor could not curse too vulgar words. Heydi Silem, who was born unruly, was compared to Minzell, which shows the emperor's inner anger. It is important to know that Minzell was the leader of the German peasant war. He led the uprising of peasants, civilians and miners in 1525!

Taylorman finally pushed the door open and chose the inconspicuous corner without saying a word. The emperor seemed not to notice his attendant, and continued to wander around the desk without any composure. It took him a long time to calm down.

"Secretary, I am the master of the German Empire, right?" The calming emperor stared at the first-class Iron Cross on Taylorman's chest and asked in a deep voice.

On February 10, in the Gulf of Finland, the Commander's Office of the Battle Patrol.

Wang Heidi's monologue continues, while Redel's emotions are like a roller coaster, turning from the initial anger to silence, and then fermenting into shame that is hard to show.

"After the Battle of Dogers, David Betty received two Invincible Class and two Queen Elizabeth-class battleships. In mid-March, after returning from the tireless class battleships from the South Atlantic, David Betty could use 8-9 fast battleships. In contrast, the Ocean Fleet, Luzov and Deflinger were carrying out blockade missions in the Gulf of Finland, and the Sedlitz, Moltke and the German battleships were carrying out combat training in the southeastern Norway waters, and were unable to take into account the situation in the North Sea. On the vast sea

, The Ocean Fleet predicted and intercepted a fast fleet with a speed of more than 25 knots, which was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, not to mention that one strength grew and another was declining. This was probably the source of confidence that Betty dared to go deep into the southern part of the North Sea to conduct a combat cruise in February 1915, when the quantity of Britain and Germany was even balanced. Redell, I know David Betty, and there was adventure and boldness flowing in the blood of the sea light cavalry. In order to get his battle patrol fleet to complete the running-in mission as soon as possible, he would definitely go south again. This is obviously an opportunity!"

Withdrawing the coffee cup placed at Redell and changing it to a wrinkled chart, Wang Heidi identified the locations of the five main ships of the First Reconnaissance Fleet, and listed David Betty's unrepeated route of the North Sea combat cruise. He made a lot of marks at a certain point and said lightly:

"Redel, now is indeed the best time to end the naval political storm, but being in peace does not meet my expectations, which is far from enough! I am just the commander of the Battlecruiser Fleet. Without the strong support of the old marshals before the naval battle and the cover of resignation after the naval battle, even with the support of Schell and General Hippel, even with the strong reputation of the undefeated Ares, I cannot abandon the emperor who was determined to preserve the Ocean Fleet and the incompetent imperial Navy minister who always tried to make a fuss. Redel, the first half of 1915 was the last chance for the Ocean Fleet to smash the British strategic blockade. There was not much time left. I must seize every opportunity to eliminate the interference of the enemy within the navy, and use decisive battle and victory to open the imperial maritime transportation line!"

"Silem, you should know that you are challenging the traditional creed of the Junker nobles and the authority of the imperial emperor!" Erich Redel almost foresaw the protagonist's glorious ending after the war because of the emperor's suppression. He sighed unforgettably and smiled bitterly: "Maybe in the war period, your unruly will be forgiven, but after the war, you will definitely suffer the most powerful backlash from the emperor, which will end your military career ahead of schedule!"

"Ha, Radell, do you know what a tragic situation would be like for the European War in the Empire without me, Heidi Sileme..." Wang Heidi made an inappropriate joke, recalling: "Kill's gunshots, the riots in Berlin, the rainbows on Scapa Bay, and the humiliating Versailles Treaty. It can change all this, allowing Anne to face the prices calmly, allow Avril to attend church school for a few more years, allow the Catherines to escape the riots, and allow the Ocean Fleet to be proud of, this... is enough!"

Pushing open the cabin door, a ray of light from the Gulf of Finland shone in, it was very beautiful, and Wang Heidi was like an elderly man who saw through the world, repeating: "This is enough!"
