Chapter 1055: Shadow of Scapa Flow ①
Chapter 1055: Shadow of Scapa Flow ①
The Royal Fleet in the mirrored waters of Scapa Flow.
The advantage of having adequate preparations in advance is fully demonstrated in the current situation. Although the enemy is difficult to deal with, and although the mass-produced agent fleet is difficult to deal with, with preparations in many aspects, the Royal Fleet is able to deal with it much more easily than before.
In addition, with Elizabeth herself here, the momentum is boosted, and with the King George V-class and Warspite herself leading the charge, although the Royal Fleet does not have much advantage, its momentum is unprecedentedly high.
Warspite took the lead, charging forcefully into the middle of the enemy's fleet.
Higher speed, stronger maneuverability, more powerful firepower and more reliable defense.
Warspite used his main gun to directly open a hole in the side of the enemy ship in front of him, then turned around and raised his hand to push away the ship that was crashing towards him with a shot, then turned the sword in his hand and swung it from bottom to top, slashing directly at the ship that had just been pushed away, and then another shot hit the same place.
The armor was broken and the internal structure was destroyed. The explosion caused by the shelling turned this mass-produced battleship into a bomb from the inside out. A huge explosion broke out along with flames and smoke, and just two seconds later, Warspite rushed out of the flames dragging his greatsword and headed towards the next enemy.
"Warweariness has really improved a lot in all aspects."
As the flagship, Elizabeth was naturally not left out of the battle. However, compared to the Warspite, which had been greatly improved, Elizabeth was obviously much inferior.
However, the participation of this royal flagship in the war has boosted the combat power of others, which is another matter. At least from the current situation, the agent ships that should have been strong enemies are gradually disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, but Elizabeth did not let her guard down.
"Befa, haven't the erosion phenomena reported yet?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. There are no corroded enemy ships yet, but based on previous reports and experience, such enemies should appear after we continue fighting for a while."
"Does that mean that even if we destroy these fleets now, they will become food for the subsequent enemies? Humph, they are really troublesome things, they only know how to play tricks!"
While fighting, Elizabeth was also thinking about the follow-up arrangements.
While participating in the battle here, the Royal side did not forget to leave a fleet to continue defending the Scapa Flow anchorage to prevent the Iron Bloods from suddenly launching an attack at this time.
But what Elizabeth could not have imagined was that the Iron Blood fleet had already been gathering long before the war started on their side.

"Eugen, we have been assembled for four hours. How long do you plan to wait? What are we waiting for?"
Hipper complained to Prince Eugen in dissatisfaction. He was suddenly asked to assemble the fleet for no apparent reason, but after everyone was assembled, they were just waiting here doing nothing. This situation obviously made Hipper very dissatisfied.
However, Prince Eugen was indeed the flagship in charge of the command. Although she was dissatisfied, she had no way to change Eugen's order.
"Oh, you can't wait any longer? If you don't even have this little bit of patience, you'll be looked down upon, okay?"
"Who are you disliked by? You are the one being disliked now. You gathered everyone together and prepared for the attack, but you didn't even explain clearly what you were going to do."
"So didn't I tell you to go out and fight? Aren't you all ready?"
Hipper stared at Eugen, who was obviously playing dumb, but there was nothing he could do.
Although this girl is her sister, she always acts like a nobody.
But if you say she is unreliable, Eugen has never made any mistakes in important matters.
"At least tell me where you're going!"
"Somewhere?"
Prince Eugen thought for a moment and smiled:
"How about going to Scapa Flow? Isn't it nice?"
Hipper was stunned at first, then frowned.
"Going to Scapa Flow at this time? Although I know some things, but Eugen, are you crazy?"
Hipper looked at the ship girls who were chatting next to him, and then looked at Eugen:
"Even if you agreed with that guy, this is Scapa Flow. How could the royal family agree to it?"
"Haha, I didn't know that."
Eugen looked at Hipper with a smile, and Hipper clicked his tongue unhappily.
"Humph, I don't want to bother with you anymore!"
Hipper turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped, turned to look at Eugen in confusion and asked:
"Are you serious about cooperating with that guy? Although we got some benefits from him, we paid too much. Considering your personality, this is too unusual, isn't it?"
"Haha, who knows, maybe after I go over there I suddenly won't want to cooperate with him, and I can just shoot him in the face and kill him, okay?"
"Tsk, forget it. Anyway, the command is in your hands, so you can make your own judgment. But why don't you bring Blücher with you? If we both go out and leave her alone at home, she will be unhappy again when we come back."
Prince Eugen sighed and looked at Hipper as if he were a fool:
"It's because you think things are so simple that I am the flagship instead of you, my sister Hipper~"
"Huh?! What do you mean!"
Eugen ignored the angry Hipper and turned his gaze into the distance.
In the mirror sea, Yang Sikang's fleet has already eliminated the Type III Siren fleet. In order to ensure that the worst situation does not occur, Yang Sikang asked Ding'an and Huajia to cooperate with the three submarine girls to salvage all the wreckage left by the Siren ships and hand them over to Ding'an.
He didn't know what would happen if the wreckage of the Type III Siren was merged with the ships of the Agent Fleet, but he had no interest in trying this possibility himself.
But the strange thing is that after defeating this Siren fleet, neither the Agent nor the Good Man Richard appeared.
Although it looked very gloomy here and the atmosphere on the sea was very bad, it was calm and no enemies were found.
"Let's look around."
Yang Sikang said directly.
There are uncertain risks if you walk around in the mirror sea, but staying here is obviously not an option.
The environment here seemed to be still near Scapa Flow. Although he knew that he was already in the mirror sea, he still wanted to see the difference between the mirror sea created by Good Richard and the Siren.
The fleet first circled around for a few times and found nothing strange, then turned towards Scapa Flow.
There was no interference during this process, but as they moved towards Scapa Flow, they soon received reports from Helena and the submarine squadron at the same time.
The sea water turned red.
