On the second day of the uprising, the revolutionary forces have controlled most of Kiel and returned it to the reactionaries. Only Kiel City Hall, Kiel Naval Base and some other star areas are left, but these fortresses, Kiel revolutionary forces can’t attack them at all, and they are as deep as nails and can give a backhand blow to the revolution in full swing at any time.
According to endless statistics, there are more than 30,000 revolutionary armed forces in Kiel. The revolutionary forces are awesome and spectacular, but in fact, in addition to obeying Albert’s orders, 4,500 former imperial army officers of William Waetzoldt School are under the command of Blunt, and 9,000 workers’ pickets are armed. They all joined the revolutionary new forces on the first day of Kiel riots. Although they are numerous, their quality is uneven. They often turn into thugs to threaten the lives of Kiel citizens, attack the rich areas and valuable shops, rob wealth and humiliate women.
The uprising fleet patrolling the Baltic Sea outside Kiel Fjord is also in big trouble. According to the information, Heidi Selim’s first imperial navy has blocked the Baltic Sea. Four old battleships and four destroyers, the second reconnaissance fleet, four light cruisers have been stationed in Kiel Fjord urgently, and two coastal defense ships loyal to ZHENG F ǔ Baltic Sea Fleet and some auxiliary fleets have also confronted the uprising fleet.
The Baltic Sea Uprising Fleet could have relied on Kiel Naval Base to be loyal to zhèng fǔ incarnation Navy. However, at the beginning of the uprising, the German Communist Party failed to take the Kiel Naval Base. Before the Kiel City Hall was captured, it was impossible for the main revolutionary armed forces in Kiel to attack the Kiel Naval Base on a large scale without the home port. The outcome of relying on the Baltic Sea Uprising Fleet can be imagined.
Was elected as the commjīnger-in-chief of the uprising fleet by the uprising sailors, or rather by the party representatives of the German Communist Party. After exhausting his efforts, he could take a different way to occupy the Holtnau lock of the Kiel Canal and temporarily anchor the uprising fleet there.
Although the imperial navy is unlikely to take tough measures against the uprising fleet and take the initiative to provoke naval warfare, strasser still does not want his fleet to be besieged by the Baltic blockade fleet, the second reconnaissance fleet and the reactionary fleet in Kiel Port.
Holtnau Ship Lock is the starting point of Kiel Canal, so it can block Kiel Canal, temporarily delay the second reconnaissance fleet from entering the Baltic Sea, and it can also rely on Holtnau Ship Lock facilities to rebel against the fleet.
In the early morning of May 2Ri, strasser, the commander of the Baltic Sea Mist Uprising Fleet, suddenly approached the Kiel Canal, fired a gun at the lock’s shore defense position and landed a small boat on the coast, which dispersed the few defenders in Holtnau to occupy the lock and blocked the Kiel Canal.
Strasser, the commander-in-chief of the Baltic Sea Uprising Fleet, has really outdone himself. Before the revolution, Otto strasser was just a junior officer in the engine room of Odin’s coastal defense ship. Without Odin’s position as the head of the German * * and the founder of this revolutionary uprising, he might have been worthless, and it is even more impossible to be elected as the supreme commander of this fleet with four old-fashioned coastal defense ships and five 192-class torpedo boats.
At the same time, the imperial navy also developed countermeasures.
However, in the hinterland of Zewan, a Siegfried-class coastal defense ship, three shallow-water gunboats and six medium-sized troop carriers were filled with fog. Teams of J Ο ng Han Imperial Marines carried various weapons knots and then the company’s adjutants at all levels commanded to board the troop carriers in an orderly manner.
After all the 3,000 marines and the attached artillery battalion boarded the ship, there were only some company officials left at Danzig Wharf, and the noisy bay suddenly swung a lot.
After counting the number of people and materials, sorge Thomas, the chief officer of the company, was also preparing to board the ship. At this time, Willie Mason, an instructor of the Army Military Academy, suddenly stopped him.
"If you don’t want to end your military career and be executed for treason, get as close to that person as possible …" Willy Mason Castle, an instructor of the Marine Corps Military Academy sent by the War Department to assist the Navy in training, made a face-lifting gesture.
Sorge Thomas’s lips trembled and he was stubborn, but he finally agreed.
However, the whistle of Zewan was connected into a troop carrier, and the bow of the troop carrier, sorge Thomas, looked back deeply at the peace, but Zewan couldn’t help but grasp the officer’s gun.
Two Magdeburg-class light cruisers and two Graudenz-class light cruisers in Helgolan Bay galloped northwest with long soot.
Vice admiral Leib Li Xite Mas led the second reconnaissance fleet out of Jed Bay in the early morning, and four light cruisers bypassed the port of Cooks. It was planned to go to Kiel Fjord quickly by temporarily returning the Zhong Kiel Canal to zhèng fǔ incarnation.
However, when the second reconnaissance fleet arrived at the mouth of the Ulster River, the news came that the Holtnau Canal was lost.
"That is to say, the mutiny fleet will set their anchorage at Holtnau Lock?" The front section of Wang Haidi’s negative bridge faces the sea breeze in Helgolan Bay and says, "We’ll take the Kiel Canal without bypassing the Scar Gerakl Strait!" ……
The second gun, the third chapter, was ordered in a crisis (5)
News of the fall of the Holtnau Shiplock came to Major General Mas’s Second Reconnaissance Fleet, which did not divert its course but sailed towards the Kiel Canal as originally planned. The latest chapter came out! always bear in mind
Soon after this, the command of Charlottenburg Palace gradually failed, and Wang Haidi was ordered to pass through the Admiralty and the Ocean Fleet Command and came to Wang Haidi’s hands.
The post of Commander of Kiel Counter-insurgency seems to be a high position, but it is expected that there will be less than 3,000 troops at hand. There are less than 2,000 troops in the Hoerstein area of Hannover Grenadier. More than 5,000 marines belonging to the army and navy are going to counter the rebellion. Lauren frowned and counted the forces that can be relied on, but Wang Haidi shook his head gently with fatigue.
"Major General Lauren of Mas can’t calculate these. I believe that I can’t mobilize Schleswig Holstein except the Navy and the Marine Corps!"
Major-General Mas and Haidi in front of Lauren School did not hide his panic and eagerness. When he looked down at his pocket watch, he hit the nail on the head and pierced the Charlottenburg Palace and the Supreme Command Y and N.
"West Lyme, I know that the emperor and the army are up to no good, but the Kiel riots are not a matter for the navy. The emperor and the army may not completely ignore the overall situation …" Major General Mas said something that he didn’t even believe himself. It seems that he was also the commander of Kiel’s rebellion, the Navy God of War, and he cheered himself.
"That’s natural!" Compared with Major General Mas, he is not confident and tired about the army, but Wang Haidi is unexpectedly optimistic. Some flagships are not well-off. Commander Tahaiti revealed his cards to Major General Mas and Lauren School. "Although I can’t count on those guys who are stuck in Berlin, mecklenburg and Hanover, I have seen how an army with chaotic thoughts can be supported by the Eastern Army and Commander Max Hoffman."
From Helgolan Bay to Holtnau Lock, the Second Reconnaissance Fleet made rapid progress and arrived at Holtnau Lock, the starting point of Kiel Canal, before it was dark.
After the completion of Kiel Canal, it has been widened and deepened more than once, but the narrow channel of the canal is still not suitable for surface warfare. Of course, even if the second reconnaissance fleet in the channel of Kiel Canal is blocked, it will fight back against the rebellious fleet. However, the fact is that neither the Baltic Uprising Fleet on the side of Holtnau Lock nor the second reconnaissance fleet on the side of Holtnau Lock will easily use force and are unwilling to launch the first naval battle.
Because the uprising sailors temporarily closed the Holtnau lock, many ships were blocked, and the channel of the canal has been discharged for more than ten kilometers. The second reconnaissance fleet was forced to stop 12 kilometers before the lock.
"After all, they dare not destroy the Holtnau lock. It seems that everything can be saved …" Wang Haidi, the flagship bridge of the Second Reconnaissance Fleet, put a telescope on Major General Mas. "Major General, please give me a boat!"
"General, what do you want to do?" Major General Mas heard that the team attached great importance to respect and discipline, but took a step forward to block the gangway that Wang Haidi had to go to the dinghy deck.
"Embrace peace!" Wang Haidi looked down at her pocket watch again and said simply.
"Selim will please forgive me for offending hippel before going to sea to stop all your irrational actions!"
General Heidi Selim will personally go to the rebel camp to negotiate? ! Mas, major general nervous forehead oozing big sweat incoherent way
"I think it’s too risky, so I must stop you!"
"Major General Mas, you know that we won’t choose force to solve the negotiation of the mutinous fleet unless we have to. Although it’s safe, Major General Langshi knows that I don’t have time!" Hai-di wang stared at mas, major general eyes serious way
There is really no time.
Kiel bleeds, rich people are slaughtered, and houses are burned. Wang Haidi is worried that the unity of the empire will be destroyed, which will make the empire become weaker and weaker, making it lose its last chance. Wang Haidi is also afraid that thugs will raise a butcher knife to his family. Wang Haidi’s family and the capital are in turmoil! There is really no time!
The dinghy was slowly released from the dinghy deck by the boom. The commander of the Royal Marine Corps of Wang Haidi, the Second Reconnaissance Fleet of Lauren School, and ten marines with guns boarded the dinghy with white flags and slowly sailed towards the Holtnau Lock.
The sudden arrival of the Second Reconnaissance Fleet of Holtnau Ship Lock caused a panic among the uprising fleet. Sailors adjusted the defensive artillery attached to the ship lock one after another, and removed the small-caliber artillery from the coastal defense ship to aim the muzzle at the fleet that came from afar.
"Commander, there’s a boat coming!" Sailors on the observation deck of Holtnau Shiplock put on binoculars and sent out a jǐng message.
Marine deployed along that ship lock took up rifles and pointed them at the small boat with white flag coming from sunset.
Responsible for land defense is the former head of the German Communist Party of the hildebrand coastal defense ship, and now the commander of ship lock defense, John Smü ller.
John Smuller, with a cigarette in his mouth, quickly dropped his cigarette butt, quickly climbed the ship lock lookout, made a sudden snatch, grabbed the telescope in the lookout’s hand, and carefully observed the boat bathing in the sunset.
"That’s …" Looking at the bow of the dinghy, the German imperialists Yu Xiao, who is a navy admiral, have a firm belief in heroes, and John Muller has temporarily lost it.
John Smü ller never thought that the navy would send a heavy Heidi Selim to deal with the mutiny fleet. He could clearly realize that something was wrong. He panicked for a long time before he woke up and went crazy, shouting, "Don’t let that boat near the gun! Shoot it now!"
Marine sailors guarding the ship lock raised their rifles at the boat near the middle boat and pulled the trigger, waiting for them to enter the effective range of rifles.
At this time, the lookout timidly said, "Interrupt the subsequent movement of the marine sailors at the lock."
"But that is the invincible god of war of the empire!"
"Is it General Heidi Selim?"
"It’s Heidi Selim!"
Marine sailors smell the news and gasp in air. The young sailors turned their heads and looked at the desperate order of Dashe to kill Heidi Selim. John Muller’s expression was a little cold.
"That root is not Heidi Selim!" John Smü ller, the former torpedo officer of the hildebrand coastal defense ship, kicked down the talkative lookout in a magical way, grabbed a rifle from the marine sailors at the observation deck of the ship lock and aimed it at Wang Haidi in a decent way
Torpedo officer John Smü ller has no gun experience, but he knows that he must use this gun or land at Holtnau Lock. Heidi Selim will surely arouse the morale of the uprising fleet with his high prestige.
As soon as John Smuller made the shot, he felt the murderous look coming from all sides.
John Muller underestimated the influence of Heidi Selim Admiralty. Heidi Selim served as a reserve fleet mobilization staff officer more than ten years ago, and was also a commander of the Baltic Sea blockade fleet for a short time during the war. However, most of the time, Heidi Selim kept in touch with the Baltic Sea Fleet. John Muller knew that the West Lyme Ocean Fleet and the Mediterranean Joint Fleet were all like Ri Midheaven, but he denied that the West Lyme Baltic Sea Fleet also had comparable charm.
Muller consciously loosened his rifle and turned his head. He was surprised to find that the marines and ā longitudinal small-caliber artillery gunners who should have been hiding behind the bunker with guns stood up and looked at him resentfully.
Party member, a devout German Communist Party, suspected that if it were not for the threat of the Second Reconnaissance Fleet, I’m afraid the uprising fleet of Holtnau Shiplock would have fought.
In a small boat, Wang Haidi made a thrilling approach to the gentle slope of the dam of Holtnau Lock. Before that, the Marine Corps of Lauren School jumped off the boat and surrounded Wang Haidi in a sweat, carefully holding him to the Holtnau Lock.
At this time, the marines of the uprising fleet emerged from their positions and saluted the admiral to Wang Haidi Qiqi.
Ship lock observation deck ship lock control room spiral ladder ship lock dam at the top of the canal on both sides of the dam many arms wrapped in white cloth sailors brush salute scene is spectacular.
At this moment, Wang Haidi’s eyes were moist to some extent. Wang Haidi, the sailors who saluted him, were hostile. However, from their salutations, Wang Haidi did not see the fiercest and bloodiest struggle in the 2nd century. Instead, he did not see that the uprising fleet should have resentment against the imperial navy, but that this country and this nation respected him.
Many times, even Wang Haidi doesn’t understand the people of China. He wants to be dead set on Germany. Even though he has been repeatedly suppressed by high-level officials, he still insists on this stage. Wang Haidi always comforts himself with his family, his love for the German navy and his pursuit of the sea soul of a big country. Today, Wang Haidi proudly announced that he was treated with courtesy in front of the Holtnau lock.
