“Order the ships to raise their readiness and prepare for a decisive battle with the Russians.” Admiral Roger Case gave the order.
He knew very well that they would probably have to fight a decisive battle with the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Imperial Navy before they could converge with the reinforcement fleet, which was inevitable.
The only thing they could do was to use the current fleet to fend off the Russian attack. Even if they lose both, they will not suffer. When the reinforcements arrive, they will once again gain the advantage.
“Yes, Your Excellency Commander!” replied Lieutenant General Field.
“Damn the Russians, do you think you’ve eaten us? Admiral Roger Case said hatefully.
Now in the Mediterranean Fleet, there are 12 capital ships left.
Although, compared with before, it is already a big loss of strength.
However, it has not yet reached the point where there is no way to fight back.
The Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy can’t wait to fight a decisive battle with the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet, and wants to eat the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet in one fell swoop, which is simply too bullying.
The officers and men of the Royal Navy, even if they fight to the death, will definitely not let the Russians succeed easily.
Little by little, the sun never sets, and the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Empire has increased its combat alert. 563
It was not until noon on January 4, 1827 that a large fleet appeared northwest of them.
It seems that the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy has already run ahead of them in advance.
“Your Excellency Commander, the fleet of the Russians has appeared. To our northwest, it was less than thirty kilometers away. Lieutenant General Field reported.
“It seems that there is really no way for us to avoid it. Order the ships, prepare for battle!” ordered Admiral Roger Keyes.
The Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy undoubtedly came prepared this time and will definitely not let them escape.
Therefore, Admiral Roger Case also gave up evasion and chose to smash the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy head-on. He would rather see if the Black Sea Fleet had the strength to eat them. The Royal Navy, which has been cornered, is not so easy to eat. If the Russians want to eat them, they must be prepared to break their teeth.
Under the orders of Admiral Roger Keys, the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet entered combat readiness.
One by one, the capital ships began to form battle lines and form battle formations.
Heavy cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers were equally ready for battle.
Some warships will be responsible for fighting the cruisers and destroyers of the Russians. Other warships are responsible for providing protection for capital ships from enemy lightning strikes.
The remaining 12 capital ships of the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet soon formed a battle line.
The leader, naturally, was the flagship battleship Ravages, followed by the battleships Vengeance, Determination, Ramiris, Rodney, Tiger and Ayrblue, as well as the squadron’s battlecruisers Brave, Daring, Ajax, Orion and Conqueror.
Because the sun never sets, many of the warships of the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Empire are warships built in the last world war. It has been more than ten years since it was in service. In terms of performance in all aspects, it is not as good as when it was just in service.
But even so, their strength is not to be underestimated.
At least, even the Gallic navy, which is also a world-class power, may not be able to fight in the face of the Royal Navy of the Empire at this time.
And this, naturally, is the confidence of Admiral Roger Keyes, commander of the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet.
Of course, their strength is slightly inferior to the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy. However, with proper command, it is absolutely possible to bring out the strength of the fleet (ACAC).
At that time, if nothing else, it will be no problem to fight with the Russians and lose both.
As long as this goal is achieved, then wait until their reinforcement fleet arrives. At that time, they will still be able to gain sea control in the eastern Mediterranean. The final victors of this war are still them. It’s just that the price paid is a little bigger than expected.
When the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy discovered the enemy, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy also discovered the other side. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!)
“Your Excellency Commander, we have successfully intercepted the sun that never sets. This time, they couldn’t escape. “Lieutenant General Norbergatov was very excited.
“Order the ships to be combat-ready. This time, we must kill the sun that never sets. Lieutenant General Enkvist ordered.
“Yes, Your Excellency, Commander. However, it is better for us to be able to solve the problem of falling people at the lowest cost. In this way, we will be able to cope with everything that follows. Lieutenant General Norbergatov reminded.
Lieutenant General Enkvist nodded.
He also understands this.
After all, the power of the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Setting Empire they were facing was more than that. Even if the sun does not set, even if they lose all the Mediterranean fleet, they can still send other fleets into the Mediterranean.
You know, the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets Empire is supported by other naval powers.
If the Black Sea Fleet suffers heavy losses or is completely lost in this battle. That would still put the Russian Empire in a very unfavorable situation in the next disputes.
Under the orders of Vice Admiral Enkvist, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy also entered a combat state.
One capital ship after another, began to form battle lines.
Among them, the flagship battleship Peter II was in the front. It was followed by the battleship Bavaria, the battleship Baden, the battlecruiser Mackensen, the battlecruiser Count Spee, the battleship Caesar, the battleship Frederick the Great, the battleship Catherine, the battleship Albert, the battleship Jimboon, the battleship Navarino, the battleship Fyodor III and the battleship Ivan V.
The rest of the cruisers and destroyers, part of which was responsible for protecting the capital battleships. The other part is to prepare for attacks on cruisers and destroyers that never set in order to further gain greater advantages.
In this way, we can gain absolute superiority in this naval battle and win the final victory of this naval battle.
