C851 Straits Crisis (1/2)

April 15th, six Prussian battleships sailed the ocean under the banner of Ocean Training, and the crowd on the pier cheered.

The reason for this was simple: Prussia had never had a real navy. Historically, his few ships had been used as coast guards, mostly against pirates and smugglers in the North Sea and the Baltic.

Until the Pudan War of 1864, when the powerful Prussian Army used his relatively powerful naval forces to seal off almost all of the waters of northern Prussia, causing serious losses to the Prussian commercial trade.

After the war, the Prussian began to build a navy, but even until the Franco-Prussian War, the Prussian navy was still a small coastguard. Let alone fighting with the English and French, he couldn't even compete with the Dutch.

The navy really did not have many opportunities to train in the ocean, so all the families of the sailors attached great importance to the expedition. The cheers of hamburger Port were naturally thunderous.

Such a huge departure ceremony naturally couldn't escape the eyes of spies from other countries. When the six battleships just entered the high seas, the figures of British Fleet appeared in the north.

At that time, the relationship between Britain and Prussia was still very good, so no one believed that the British Navy would take the initiative to attack them.

By the time the fleet reached the Strait of Dover, the number of British Fleet in the north had already reached twelve, and the distance between the ships was still very long. It was obvious that they were afraid that Prussia would secretly send out warships to bypass the British Isles and send Prince Leopold to Spain.

The Dover Strait was filled with French naval main battleship. The pure white sails covered the sky as the gates of the war naval gun were opened. The black muzzles of the cannons were aimed at the pitiful Prussian fleet.

Flag had ordered the Prussian fleet to stop at once for inspection, in a manner that made it appear that the two countries had entered a state of war. Prussian had just defeated the veteran, now the morale of the army was at the peak of history. In addition, this race was already very proud, even if the enemy was a hundred times stronger than them, they would still not retreat.

The six battleships quickly went to the side to meet the enemy, their cannons aimed at the French battleship, the imposing manner in which they faced the battle was not weaker than French Fleet at all.

The French would not dare to fire their guns. Their goal was to prevent Prince Reopp from going to Spain, and Britain did not want to see Reopp become king of Spain, and Prussia become an army power to suppress France and Russia. That was the British plan.

Since both sides in the English and French were scheming for benefits, then the war would not be able to begin. Prussia was like a trapped beast that was being surrounded as they acted out a tragic and generous song in the Strait of Dover.

The photographers who accompanied the army took a large number of tragic photographs. The Prussian navy soldiers who were surrounded by heavy soldiers displayed a needless fighting spirit. Despite the fact that the naval battles were all fought by artillery, everyone was actually armed with a bayonet and a rifle.

This was also a move that Xiao Letian had learned from the media. In this kind of situation where they were outnumbered and outnumbered, they would have to show the courage and unyielding spirit of someone who was bullied like Prussian.

It was fine to wrap two layers of gauze around his head. The uniform was dirty, so he didn't need to be afraid of having sharp eyes. Right, right, right, the stool leg bearer next to you, stand still and I'll give you a big close-up. If you want to be wronged, you need to have three points of strength in your eyes.
