The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 312 Aftermath

"Send a signal to the Germans, we are willing to talk to them about how to deal with the aftermath." Skok ordered. \u003c/p\u003e "Let them come to my flagship to talk, and they can carry no more than 5 entourages." Then Hipper looked at the traffic boat at the rear of the conning tower, and then at the unrecognizable Charlie who had been bombed Manda Emperor. \u003c/p\u003e"Let our traffic boat pick up the French. I guess if they rely on themselves, I'm afraid they can only swim over!" laugh. "Okay, okay, be careful, don't irritate our guests, hurry up and prepare."\u003c/p\u003e "This is the battleship that defeated Charlemagne!" When Skok boarded the battleship, he deliberately released Slowing down, the boarding ladder was at the rear of the middle of the battleship. He carefully observed the battleship. Although there were some deep or shallow pits on the ship's side, there were traces left after the fire was extinguished in some places. , but generally speaking, this battleship did not suffer any fatal damage in the fierce battle just now. \u003c/p\u003eIn his opinion, if the consumption of ammunition is not taken into account, this battleship can completely fight again! Two 254mm heavy guns arranged opposite each other in the middle of the hull attracted his attention. "A total of 8 second-level main guns, no wonder the German warships have such a strong projection." Skok tried to record everything he saw in his head. He wanted to know what caused the French fleet to fail! \u003c/p\u003e"Sir, in order to solve the problem faster and better, can you be faster?" A German officer on the side said very politely, but judging from the other party's tone and actions, Skok I can feel the dissatisfaction and anger of the other party. This behavior of taking the opportunity to spy on warships of other countries aroused great dissatisfaction among the Germans, and for some unnecessary troubles, Skok accelerated his pace. \u003c/p\u003e"Because of some mistakes and accidents, there was an unnecessary conflict between the navies of the two countries, and this time, I am here hoping to solve the problem through peaceful means. If possible, I hope your country It can help the French fleet return to Dakar." Skok explained his purpose. \u003c/p\u003e "You don't seem to understand the situation now, because your country's wrong actions have led to extremely serious consequences, and the entry of the French fleet into our pre-designated engagement area was originally a provocative act, and the French fleet is now Defeated, but relying on a mistake to slip away from us? This is impossible!" Hipper said a little angrily. \u003c/p\u003eThe French think so well. You made the move first, and it was on your side. Now you can't beat them, and you want to pat your ass and leave? How can there be such a good thing? After this incident went back, I still don’t know how it was publicized by you! Hipper still wants to keep these people here as witnesses and hostages! \u003c/p\u003e "You want to detain the French fleet? This is an act of war!" Skok said with a tight heart. \u003c/p\u003e "It is already an act of war for the French fleet to fire first, and France also wants to land in our theater. It was your country that provoked this dispute, and you must bear full responsibility!" Hipper said sternly. \u003c/p\u003e"And for you who have already attacked the German fleet, we will never let it go. Our ceasefire is only out of humanitarianism. If you reject the German Navy's good intentions, then we don't mind continuing to fight."\u003c/p\u003e p\u003e"This is just a misunderstanding, and you cannot bear the consequences of expanding the war." Skok threatened. \u003c/p\u003e"Does the law of your country stipulate that one party can not bear the consequences after killing someone because of a misunderstanding? Before coming here, we have received domestic telegrams, resolutely counterattacking all actions that dare to challenge the dignity of Germany , our actions are endorsed by others, so,

I don't worry about the consequences, I'm just a soldier and I do what I'm ordered to do. "Hippel did not flinch.\u003c/p\u003e"You better recognize the reality, Captain, we have caused a de facto engagement, so you can't expect us to let you go, everything we have done is to avoid Needless casualties, so what you need to do now, and the only thing you can do, is to cooperate with us to transfer personnel. We can beach or sink the Charlemagne, and then all French naval and army personnel can be transferred to land, but they must surrender their weapons and place them in the custody of the Empire. And if you are determined, then when you return to the Charlemagne, it will be the day when the war will start again! "Hipper issued an ultimatum.\u003c/p\u003e"I... I accept! It took a full 5 minutes for Skok to squeeze out these words from his teeth, but this was enough for Hipper. This battle is over. In addition to the aftermath, he needs Immediately prepared for a possible expanded conflict.\u003c/p\u003e "How many shells does the fleet have? "The damage to the battleship is not large, and it can continue to fight after simple repairs. The most important thing is the consumption of ammunition. In less than an hour of fighting, the Marquess Bismarck took advantage of the super-high rate of fire of the main gun. The price is that the stock of shells has dropped very sharply.\u003c/p\u003e "Our 10-inch main gun has about 600 shells left, and the 6-inch secondary gun has a lot of ammunition left, and each can average more than 80 shells . "Second Lieutenant Von Liorer replied. "However, if there is no accident, the ammunition problem can be solved quickly, because at the latest tomorrow night, an American convoy can arrive here to deliver the urgently needed ammunition and supply. "\u003c/p\u003e "That's good, it's not a big problem. The news of the French fleet's failure has been transmitted to Dakar by radio in time. Then the news will be transmitted to the French mainland and then a decision will be made. It will be three days later. , the fleet will be replenished tomorrow, and Earl Spey's fleet will arrive here within 4 days. At that time, 4 German battleships will gather here, unless the French send their main Mediterranean or Atlantic fleet here, In other words, simply relying on the few French warships in Dakar is of no use at all! \u003c/p\u003eOf course, when he was busy with these things, Hipper did not forget to report the situation here to the German high-level as soon as possible. Such a big matter is not up to him to decide. The next step is to stick to it or go directly to Dakar to block the French. It is up to Berlin to make a decision. \u003c/p\u003eWhile the Germans were doing this, a French camouflaged radio relay ship cruising around the periphery received a telegram from Charlemagne before surrendering, and after some twists and turns, the telegram was received It was forwarded to Paris, and this also heralded a new stage in the confrontation between France and Germany! \u003c/p\u003eI just found out that there is a client recommendation today..., once a month, which is said to be pretty good.
