On Pacific Ocean, German Expeditionary Fleet is still resting. Although the battle with Island Nation Combined Fleet did not cause them much losses. But many battleships were hit by shells and needed simple repairs. Fortunately, except for the 'Moltke' number Battlecruiser, the damage to the other battleships was not serious. It only needed simple repairs by the personnel on the battleship. Although the shape of the battleship cannot be restored and it looks a bit miserable, in fact, its combat effectiveness has not been affected.
In addition, a day of fierce fighting made the soldiers very tired. Everyone fought fiercely for a day, and their spirits were also in high tension. In addition, I didn't drink any water and didn't eat any food. When the battle was over, many soldiers were paralyzed from exhaustion.
Seeing this situation, Vice Admiral Spee ordered the fleet to evacuate the offshore waters of Island Nation and cruise upstream of Pacific Ocean. Give officers and soldiers a certain amount of rest time. At the same time, we are also waiting for orders from home.
After Expeditionary Fleet eliminated Island Nation Combined Fleet, the next step was the contact between the government Ministry of Foreign Affairs door and the Island Nation Ministry of Foreign Affairs door. It would be best if an agreement could be reached. Otherwise, they will have to launch further attacks.
"General, will the Island Nation people give in this time? Logically speaking, their navy has been killed by us. They have no chance of making a comeback. Apart from compromise, they have no other way!" Rear Admiral Mauff said.
"I don't know either. Let's continue to wait for news! The Island Nation people are a very paranoid nation. For them, it is impossible to use common sense to guess. Therefore, we can only wait for the situation and see their reaction." Vice Admiral Spee said.
Of course, Vice Admiral Spee, who had served in Far East, knew very well that Island Nation people would not give in so easily. Even if they solved Island Nation Navy's Combined Fleet. But Island Nation people are very likely to continue to persist. Therefore, their mission has not been completed yet.
"General, Telegram in China!" Communications Officer reported.
Vice Admiral Spee took a look at Telegram and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"It seems that the Island Nation people have not surrendered yet. The citizens ordered us to continue attacking Island Nation's coastal cities and we must make them bow their heads!" Vice Admiral Spee said.
"God! It's unimaginable that there is such a paranoid nation. Don't they know that there is no point in resisting anymore? They have no capital to fight back. If we continue to attack, it will only make them pay a higher price for this. Don't those Island Nation people not care about the casualties of their people at all?" Rear Admiral Mauff exclaimed.
Vice Admiral Spee shrugged helplessly. "Who knows? Maybe only God knows what kind of nation the Island Nation people are! However, since the order has been issued, we only need to follow the order. Let the fleet be ready and start executing the order!"
"Yes, General." Rear Admiral Mauff immediately conveyed the order to each ship.
The ships that were resting immediately regrouped and fought from Pacific Ocean to Island Nation offshore.
"The three cities of Island Nation, Shizuoka, Hamamatsu and Nagoya, have been destroyed by us. Then, next we can enter Osaka Bay, attack Osaka and Kobe, which are also important cities of Island Nation." Vice Admiral Spee said.
"General, if we can break into Tokyo Bay and directly attack Tokyo, it may be more effective." Rear Admiral Mauff suggested.
Vice Admiral Spee nodded. "I know. However, Tokyo Bay is not so easy to enter. That is the capital of the Island Nation people. They must be well prepared there. Naval Mine among Uraga Channel alone is enough to stop us."
"Since the Combined Fleet of the Island Nation people can come out from Uraga Channel, they must have left a passage. If you are lucky, you may be able to find a safe road!" Rear Admiral Mauff said.
"Yes, but that's still too risky. We can't take risks unless we have to. Get rid of the other Island Nation cities first. If the Island Nation people compromise and give in, that would be the best. If they are still tough, then we can find a way to launch an attack on Tokyo!" Vice Admiral Spee said.
Vice Admiral Spee knows very well that as Tokyo is the capital of Island Nation, it is understandable no matter how strict the defense is. If they want to launch an artillery attack on Tokyo, it will undoubtedly be very difficult. If things go wrong, the fleet will suffer even greater losses. However, if we really get to that point and have to attack Tokyo to make Island Nation people surrender, then there is no way.
Osaka and Kobe, located in Osaka Bay, are two very important industrial cities in the island country. These two cities form the Hanshin Industrial Belt. Although, the evacuation order from the island government has been issued. However, it has not been implemented well locally. A large number of factory owners are unwilling to abandon their industries at this time, which will cause them heavy losses. So they ignored the government's orders and continued to stay. And this made them pay an unimaginable price in the subsequent bombardment.
On August 15th, German Expeditionary Fleet entered Osaka Bay through Kii Channel. Although Island Nation Navy built a lot of coastal defense batteries on both sides of Kii Channel. However, those old coastal defense batteries are simply unable to withstand the powerful German fleet. With a heavy barrage of artillery fire, these forts were reduced to rubble.
The news of German Expeditionary Fleet's invasion of Osaka Bay also reached Osaka and Kobe. The Island Nation people living here hurriedly packed up their belongings and prepared to evacuate with their children.
Countless people poured out of the city, and the originally narrow road was completely blocked. Cars, horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws, plus people on foot, created a traffic jam.
"Get out of the way! Idiots, you idiots get out of here! The road is blocked and no one can go. Germany people are coming, there is only one way to die!" A middle-aged man stuck his head out of the car and shouted loudly.
However, no one paid any attention to him. When everyone is trying to escape, the privileged class cannot enjoy much preferential treatment.
At this time, German Expeditionary Fleet has entered Osaka Bay, which is less than ten kilometers away from the urban area of Osaka!
"Fire!" Vice Admiral Spee personally gave the order.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The eight Battlecruisers lined up began to roar. Heavy artillery shells roared and hit the Osaka city. Brutal killing was once again staged in Island Nation.
