Chapter 287
See all
Weren’t the Hans going to attack them from behind?
Why didn’t they fight now?
And the Hans said they were going home, what did that mean? Wasn’t their home port in Kiel? Why did they come to Wilhelmshaven?
With a lot of questions, the fleet of the Sun Never Sets still obediently gave way to the Hans’ warships and let them enter the port!
The tens of thousands of people who had been waiting at the dock, after seeing their warships finally arrive at the port, immediately burst into cheers like a tsunami.
Wilhelmshaven has always been one of the home ports of the German Navy. Its importance is comparable to that of Kiel in the Baltic Sea. The High Seas Fleet once used it as its home port, so the Hans people near Wilhelmshaven have always supported Wilhelmshaven to become the home port of the Navy. In this way, they can lie on the beach every day to admire the majestic figure of their own super battleships!
Woo!
Feeling the enthusiastic cheers of the people in the port, the Tirpitz raised the Iron Cross flag, and the Bismarck hung the tricolor flag of the Weimar Republic. The British Navy watched this scene with a sour look, and their feelings were very complicated.
On the one hand, they were relieved that the Hans did not show any intention of attacking them. On the other hand, seeing others like heroes triumphantly welcomed by so many people at their doorsteps was really a mixed feeling!
Especially when compared with the treatment they received, this feeling was even stronger!
……
The fleet that never sets docked in Wilhelmshaven for two days. Originally, their plan was to open a few warships to the Hans people within these two days, so that they could go on board to visit and shock the Hans people!
However, plans cannot keep up with changes. What they didn’t expect was that the Bismarck and Tirpitz that returned to Wilhelmshaven were also open to the public during these two days, and they were completely open without restrictions. As long as they held Hans’s ID card and proved that they were Hans’s citizens, they could be unconditionally allowed to go on board to visit!
So, both sides were open to the public, and one side was the warship of their own country, and the other side was the warship of the former enemy. Who was more popular, that was naturally clear!
During the two-day opening period, a total of more than 60,000 people boarded the Bismarck and Tirpitz and admired the majestic figures of the first batch of battleships built by their motherland after the war.
The Hans people may not know much about the military, so they can’t quickly judge whether their own warships are strong or not. However, when the fleet of the British Empire also docked at the port, this is not a problem at all.
They only need to compare their two warships with the warships of the British Empire’s fleet, and they can clearly know the strength of the warships of the two countries!
“Our battleships look much bigger than theirs!”
“That’s not true. Our warships are said to weigh forty to fifty thousand tons. Except for the front one with forty thousand tons, the rest of the British Empire’s warships are only twenty to thirty thousand tons. They are a whole lot smaller than ours!”
“In addition, the British Army has fewer main guns than ours. Their main guns are only 81 mm, while ours are 406 mm, which are much more powerful than theirs!”
“If a fight really breaks out, none of the Japanese ships present can match our Bismarck and Tirpitz!”
The faces of the Hans people were filled with pride. When talking about these things, everyone held their heads high, feeling honored and very proud! The Japanese fleet, which had become a background board, spent two miserable days in the bustling Wilhelmshaven.
When the two days were up, the people of the British Empire could not wait to set off and visit the next stop! As soon as the people of the British Empire left, the Bismarck and Tirpitz in Wilhelmshaven also set sail and set off with the opponent’s fleet!
As a result, what the people of the British Empire never expected was that the Hans fleet, which they thought had been thrown away by them, was sticking to them like a piece of taffy, keeping a close eye on them. The distance between them was so close.
The British Fleet had thought about getting rid of the other side, but the two battleships of Hans were very fast, with a maximum speed of 32 knots. The fastest battlecruiser Hood on the British Fleet only had a speed of 31 knots. Their speed was even slower than Hans’ battleships. In this case, how could they get rid of Hans’ fleet?
So, after a series of failed attempts, the British Fleet finally accepted their fate.
Let the Hans people follow if they want to. Anyway, as long as they don’t make any dangerous war moves, there’s no need to worry about them!
After the fleet left Hans, it took only half a The next day, they arrived at Amsterdam, the capital of the Windmill Kingdom.
Here, the British Empire Cruise Fleet finally received great attention from the Windmill people!
The Windmill Kingdom once had a powerful navy in the 17th century. At that time, they were called the Sea Coachman and were a very powerful country in Europe!
However, when competing with the British Empire for the hegemony of the sea, the British Empire had the last laugh, and the Windmill Kingdom was threatened by the Gauls on land, so it gradually declined.
Over the years, with the tacit consent of the British Empire, the Windmill Kingdom still has a large colony in Southeast Asia, which is a large archipelago. It is rich in various mines and agricultural products, including palm oil, coconut, rubber and other products.
With the nourishment of this overseas colony, although the Windmill Kingdom declined during the Age of Exploration, it still retained a relatively decent life and lived a pretty good life.
In this case, the Windmill people had no ill will towards the British or the Hans, and they did not have the strength to build a fleet as powerful as the British Royal Navy. So when the Royal Navy arrived at their port, the curious Windmill people flocked to the dock, wanting to take a close look at the style of the British fleet, which represented the strongest combat power of this era!
“As expected of the British Empire, the overlord of the sea, their battleships are indeed powerful!”
The Hood, the flagship of the British Empire, took the lead and was the first battleship to enter the vision of the people of Windmill Country. Countless people of Windmill Country were attracted by this beautiful, graceful and majestic battleship, and praised it one after another!
From the appearance point of view, the Hood battlecruiser is still very majestic and domineering. After all, it is a product of the middle of World War I, so compared with the early battleships, the appearance of this battleship is quite beautiful.
And the tonnage of more than 40,000 tons also makes this battleship look unusually tall, at least much taller than the battleships of the Windmill people themselves.
Behind the Hood, one after another of the new battleships of the British Empire entered, making the coming The people of Windmill Country who came to join in the fun were so excited!
They hadn’t seen such a spectacular and majestic fleet for a long time!
The cheers and praises of the people of Windmill Country made the people of the British Empire secretly happy. The representatives of the British Empire who came to the shore to welcome their fleet listened to the praises of the people of Windmill Country around them, and felt proud that their country had such a powerful fleet. From time to time
, they looked down on the representative of Hans next to them! He didn’t understand why the representative of Hans Country came to join in the fun when the British Empire Fleet came to visit Windmill Country?
But it’s good this way, let the frogs in the well of Hans Country see the strength of the British Empire Navy, so that they can be more obedient in the future!
“Look quickly, are those two battleships also the battleships on which the sun never sets?”
“What a big, beautiful warship! Oh my god, I’m in love with these two hot girls!”
“This warship looks so big, it seems to be bigger than the previous one!”
After the British Fleet passed by, the two huge and beautifully shaped warships hanging at the end attracted the attention of the people of Windmill Country.
They had already been eye-opening today, but they didn’t expect to see such a majestic warship at the end, which made them feel that the trip was completely worthwhile!
“It doesn’t look like the battleship that the sun never sets, does it? I see that the flag flying on it seems to be Hans’ tricolor flag!”
“Could this be Hans’s fleet?”
