The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2610: Hit on the Head

In this case, the Japanese may go to extremes! Therefore, this bold idea to first use up the ammunition of Su Xiong's fleet and then compete with the American fleet was formed in the minds of the Japanese. But what about Betty? Although he felt that this idea could no longer be described as bold, and persistence could be described as crazy, he did not firmly oppose it. Because, the plan does have a slight possibility of success!

But now, when Su Xiong decided to leave the ammunition for World War I, Betty knew that this plan could no longer succeed. Su Xiong thought of the Japanese idea and was ready to stab the opponent after Benson's fleet was in place. In this case, it is better to evacuate immediately!

"I'm really unwilling." Motaro Yoshimatsu said with a long sigh. However, the reality finally made him calm down. He looked at the time and saw that the Benson fleet was about to arrive. Now, the Japanese fleet still needed to gather the fleet again and then evacuate. It was basically time to leave, so he decisively Sent a signal to Suzuki Kantaro, asking the latter to immediately merge with him and then evacuate the fleet!

"Send a report to Benson and say that the Japanese fleet is preparing to evacuate. They are heading east, preparing to cross the entire New Ireland Island, and then turn southwest and return to New Britain Island. Our fleet's main gun shells are seriously insufficient. Every day There are less than 15 rounds of armor-piercing shells for each gun. The three battleships have only 14 main guns available, and they have lost the ability to continue fighting." Su Xiong said while looking at the Japanese fleet preparing to leave.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Japanese fleet has evacuated eastward, and it will take more than half an hour for us to reach the battlefield." Sims said to Benson with a complicated expression. He hurriedly and slowly failed to catch up with the Japanese!

"Send a telegram to Su Xiong and ask him to hold off the Japanese fleet and buy time for the main fleet!" Benson said with a livid face.

"That's enough! Benson! Give up your unrealistic revenge! We lost today, and the battle should end here! It is unrealistic for Su Xiong's fleet to continue chasing at this time! Their ammunition can't even last for a quarter of an hour. We can't even keep fighting! This telegram will make us very passive politically!" Ma Jifen on the side finally couldn't help it anymore. He understood Benson's mood at this time, but he also knew that the German fleet had already done its utmost to be benevolent and righteous, and there was no use in suppressing them any longer.

"I am the fleet commander. Since the German fleet is in our order of battle and has the dollars we gave it, it must do things for us! Execute my orders! This is a must!" Benson's attitude was extremely determined. This emotional statement even made Sims frown. However, it is a pity that neither Magiffin nor Sims are fleet commanders. As long as Benson insists on his opinion, he will definitely send a telegram!

"Order the fleet to speed up again! Move forward at the maximum speed that the machine can bear! All warships that cannot keep up will be abandoned! That's it!" Benson said with red eyes like a gambler.

"If we speed up any more, we may only be able to keep up with eight warships.

"Sims felt dizzy, because now there are 5 battleships falling behind one after another!

"War is a matter of life and death! We must persist at this time!" Benson waved his hand: "Now, everyone, follow my orders. I will not listen to any more opinions. After the battle, you can sue me, but Now, you all must listen to me!"

"This is definitely the worst order I have ever seen! Not one of them! Damn you! The US Navy is so unlucky to have a guy like you!" Su Xiong, who received the telegram, threw the telegram in his hand to the ground angrily !

"Haha." Reidel also said with a wry smile. "We want to help Benson escape from this trap, but Benson insists on diving in, so let him get what he wants!" Reidel was also full of resentment!

"Call that liaison officer over." Su Xiong said.

"Thank you very much for everything you did tonight, you..." Nimitz was very respectful when he saw Su Xiong. After all, Su Xiong finally contained half of the Japanese fleet tonight and also achieved victory. The biggest result tonight! So when he saw Su Xiong again, Nimitz's attitude was very low, and his words and actions were full of respect and a hint of flattery.

"Young man, Benson asked us to continue to pursue our opponents. Well, let's execute this order and try to delay it until the arrival of Benson's fleet. Of course, we will never execute any order that will cause me and my fleet to die! When we When all the shells are used up, we will definitely withdraw from the battle! You only need to be a witness to witness this matter. Before we retreat, I hope that you can go to the ammunition depot with your men and use Use the camera and paper and pen in your hands to record all this! The Imperial German Navy has faithfully fulfilled its mission, and we will not accept any false accusations or attacks!" Su Xiong said.

"Damn it! After a fight like this, why the hell are you still fighting?" Nimitz even suspected that he heard it wrong for the first time! "Is there something wrong with this telegram?" Nimitz said cautiously.

"No problem. Now, young man, go and fulfill your duties." Su Xiong waved his hand and said. So, the three Bavarian-class battleships that had just let it go were chasing after them again. Of course, Su Xiong would not just go up and send them off, but would keep a distance, and then use artillery to interfere with the sailing Japanese fleet from a distance. . Su Xiong, who had already been holding back his anger, thought about it tonight. After shooting all the ammunition, he turned around and left. There was no point in staying here anymore! How you, Benson, want to fight is your business, I don’t care!

"What the fuck?! An American is commanding the fleet now?" Betty was obviously stunned by this sudden situation. He originally thought that the Germans had seen their thoughts and were going to reserve ammunition. But now, why have they started again? What about pursuit?

However, Sturdy next to him had a more realistic idea. He observed the firing frequency of the German naval guns and roughly estimated the ammunition the opponent might have left. It wasn't until ten minutes later that Sturdy suddenly said: "Okay, Su Xiong can be eliminated. Their gunfire almost told us that the German fleet has used up all the ammunition. We no longer have to worry about the threat of the German fleet today." Got it!"
