    On the afternoon of January 11, the famous German newspaper Berliner Zeitung printed a special issue. The special issue of this issue was an introduction to the naval battle in the Bahamas between the Chinese naval expeditionary fleet and the American and British naval expeditionary fleets.  .  Although most of the content of the naval battle is speculation, the final result did quote the content released by the press conference held by the Chinese Prime Minister's Office.  For a time, the whole of Germany was in a sensation, and countless Germans cheered and celebrated the great victory of their allies!  Although the relationship between Germany and China is not harmonious, ordinary German people do not know this. They only know that China is an ally of Germany. The Chinese emperor also married a princess of the German Kingdom of Bavaria.  The victory of the allies is also a huge victory for Germany!

    It has been a year and a half since the beginning of the World War. For the Germans, the initial enthusiasm has already cooled down.  As the battle situation on the front line entered a stalemate, Germany suffered more and more casualties. This made the Germans who were still cheering at the beginning of the war gradually no longer be so enthusiastic about the war.  Especially after overseas trade lines were blocked, Germany's economy experienced problems, and the supply of various daily necessities on the market began to be rationed, the German people became even more negative about the war.  However, the quality of the Germans is relatively high. They know that once the war starts, it will not be easy to end it.  In addition, if Germany does not want to lose more interests, then Germany can only continue the war.  Therefore, the Germans very much look forward to the early end of the war.  only.  The German army and navy now adopt a passive defense strategy.  This makes the German people very hopeful.  And now the Chinese navy has achieved a brilliant victory.  Undoubtedly, these Germans were deeply stimulated.  People's demonstrations broke out in many German cities, demanding that the German government and army launch the most violent attack on the enemy, work with allies to completely defeat the enemy, and win this war!

    It¡¯s not just Germany, it¡¯s the same in other countries.  All journalists from various countries who participated in the press conference of the Chinese Prime Minister's Office immediately spread the news back to the country.  Their newspapers also immediately put the news of the Chinese navy's decisive victory on the front page or printed a special issue.  Now, the world war has become a matter of concern to the whole world, and people all over the world have been speculating.  When will the war end?  And which side can win in the war!  From an early stage, the Allies and the Entente were evenly matched. The Allies completed the preparations for the war first, so they had the upper hand.  However, with their strong foundation and strength, the Allies gradually regained their disadvantage and began to take advantage of the battlefield.  Especially after the British Navy wiped out the main force of the German Navy in the Battle of the North Sea, the Allies' voices for eventually winning the war were very high.  However, the only variable in this war is China. China is constantly winning on all fronts. Not only is the army constantly defeating the US Army and the British Army, as well as the British-Indian Army supported by the British.  China's navy has now also achieved a brilliant victory!  Well, many countries think so.  After the Chinese navy won the naval battle in the Bahamas, it was only a matter of time before China defeated the United States or even destroyed the United States.  And this may also become a turning point in this world war.  The victor in the world war is most likely to be China and the Allied Powers led by Germany.

    In addition, the weapons used by the Chinese Navy in this naval battle have also become the target of attention from all countries.  When the Chinese Navy's expeditionary fleet left Pearl Harbor, it only had 15 capital ships.  This makes military experts all over the world think that the Chinese Navy is seeking death. It is completely overestimating its capabilities with 15 battleships to challenge the 46 battleships of the US-British combined fleet.  But now as a result of the naval battle, the Chinese Navy has once again given these so-called brick-and-mortar beasts a severe slap in the face.  The Chinese Navy won this naval battle at a negligible cost. 19 battleships of the US-British naval combined fleet were sunk, and the rest were all captured!  Such a glorious victory is unique in the history of war in the entire world.  Moreover, the far-reaching impact of this decisive battle is incomparable.  Some countries even exclaimed that the rise of the East would be irreversible. It took the West hundreds of years to surpass the East and become the world's ruling center. But now, the world's ruling center seems to be returning to the East.  Of course, this is what the Chinese want to see.  China has been the world leader for thousands of years. Although it has declined since modern times, China's regaining the leadership of the world is exactly what everyone expects!

    Some military experts who were slapped in the face also claimed that the Chinese navy relied on aircraft to achieve victory in this naval battle.  And this is what no one expected before.  Everyone believes that the Chinese Navy does not have a naval base on the Atlantic coast and cannot use powerful aircraft to deal with the US-British combined fleet.But this time, the Chinese navy's aircraft were still extremely powerful. The attacks by hundreds of fighter planes completely turned the warships of the US and British naval fleets into decorations, and they were sunk one after another!  Although so far, this new weapon has not been exposed.  But almost all countries have guessed that the Chinese Navy should have built a warship that can take off and land aircraft.  Only in this way can hundreds of fighter planes be used to destroy the largest number of battleships in the combined fleets of the US and UK navies, thereby winning this naval battle!

    The countries of the Allied Powers also received news one after another.  Although China's Department of Homeland Security and Military Intelligence have joined forces to kill spies from hostile countries in the country, in other European countries, the Allies can still easily obtain some information.  The reports in these newspapers also shocked the citizens of the Allied Powers.  They all couldn't believe that such a powerful navy composed of the United States and Britain would suffer a disastrous defeat.  This will also lead to a very bad situation for the entire Allied Powers!  French President Cl¨¦ment Armand Fallier and Tsar Nicholas II even called the British to inquire about the specific situation of the naval battle.  After all, the British fleet also participated in this naval battle, and they should have received more accurate information.  However, the news that France and Russia finally received made them very disappointed. Those newspapers did not report randomly. The US-British combined fleet had indeed failed and was completely annihilated!

    In fact, as early as when the British Fleet Commander Admiral John de Robeck ordered the surrender to the Chinese Navy, he sent a telegram to the British Admiralty.  At that time, London time was still 1 a.m. on January 11.

    After receiving the telegram, the officer on duty at the British Admiralty did not dare to neglect and immediately called the Lord of the Admiralty, Sir John Fisher.  Sir John Fisher was very angry when he was woken up, but after hearing the content of the phone call, he suddenly fell silent!  He ordered the officers who received the telegram to rush to the Prime Minister's Office, and he immediately rushed to the Prime Minister's Office, and then handed him the specific battle report at the door of the Prime Minister's Office. He wanted to report to the Prime Minister himself!  You know, when the British Navy sent a fleet to the United States and formed a joint fleet with the U.S. Navy, this was because the British government wanted to defeat China in this naval battle and then take this opportunity to give an explanation to the British people.  But I never expected that this would be the result now.  One of the six most advanced battleships dispatched was sunk, and the other five were severely damaged and captured by the Chinese.  Most of the remaining heavy cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers also surrendered to the Chinese.  The British fleet was completely wiped out this time!

    When the British Lord of the Admiralty, Sir John Fisher, arrived at the Prime Minister's Office in Downing Street, it was already 1:30 in the morning.  He took the battle report from the naval officer who had been waiting here. After a few cursory glances, he walked into the Prime Minister's Office and reported to Prime Minister Asquith!

    "Sir Fisher, what happened? Why are you coming to see me so late?" Prime Minister Asquith yawned and walked into the office. He asked his secretary to make him a cup of strong coffee, and then spoke  Ask Sir John Fisher!

    "Your Excellency Prime Minister, Admiral John de Roebuck has sent a telegram! The decisive battle at sea between the combined fleet and the Chinese has been decided!" Sir John Fisher said!

    "Oh? The winner has been determined so quickly? Have we won the battle?" Prime Minister Asquith asked immediately, and the sleepy man also rushed to nowhere at this moment.

    "Your Excellency Prime Minister, we have failed! According to General Roback's report, the Chinese used hundreds of aircraft to attack the battleships of the Combined Fleet during this naval battle. The battleships of the Combined Fleet simply could not withstand the Chinese aircraft.  attack. Most of the capital ships were sunk or severely damaged by Chinese aircraft! In order to preserve his strength, General Roback led the fleet to retreat before the Chinese second wave of aircraft attacks, but was still attacked before dark.  The Chinese intercepted it. After an artillery battle, one of our six battleships was sunk and three were severely damaged. As a last resort, General Roback had ordered the fleet to surrender to the Chinese Navy! According to  According to the telegram sent back by General Roback before the surrender, the losses of the American fleet should be greater than ours. Therefore, this decisive battle between the Combined Fleet and the Chinese Navy Expeditionary Fleet ended in a disastrous defeat for the Combined Fleet, and the Chinese once again won  Victory in the naval battle!" Sir John Fisher said with a heavy heart!
