London, England, Buckingham Palace. ~ A carriage drove into Buckingham Palace under the protection of the guards. The sunset hung in the horizon, and the afterglow shone in the palace, making people feel lonely. British Prime Minister Earl Stanley walked out of the carriage, looked at the sunset in the horizon, and then walked towards the office of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

Although it was almost time to finish the meal, after the cabinet meeting, Count Stanley chose to report the situation of this naval battle to the Queen as soon as possible. He knew that Her Majesty the Queen and His Highness the Prince were also waiting for the result of this naval battle.

"Prime Minister, is your face not right? Is it because you have worked too hard recently?" Queen Victoria asked with concern when she saw Earl Stanley's face pale.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your care." Earl Stanley felt a little sad. So many years have passed, and the British Empire has achieved its current achievements through the efforts of countless generations. But now, because of this war, everything will be wasted.

"Prince, is there any bad news?" asked Prince Albert, his brows frowned tightly. In the current war, large-scale battles on the European battlefield have stopped, and only the navy is rushing to the Azores to fight the decisive battle with the Chinese Navy.

"Can it be that something happened to the Royal Navy?" Prince Albert was suddenly shocked. But then he denied this idea. After all, the Royal Navy is strong. Although it is not as strong as the Chinese Navy overall, it still has a great chance of winning if it faces the 5th Fleet of the Chinese Navy. After all, the total number of main battleships and warships of the Royal Navy is far greater than that of the 5th Fleet of the Chinese Navy.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, the battle between the Royal Navy's local fleet and the Chinese Navy's 5th Fleet has ended this afternoon!" Earl Stanley said. His mood is a little pessimistic now. After all, he is very clear about what this battle means.

"It's over? So soon? Have we won?" asked Queen Victoria.

However, Prince Albert, who was standing by, began to sink his heart. He knew that his guess might be correct. Something happened to the Royal Navy. Although this was a bit beyond his expectations.

"Your Majesty, we failed! The local fleet was defeated!" said Earl Stanley.

"Defeat? How is this possible? Will the Royal Navy actually be defeated?" Queen Victoria was a little incoherent and seemed unable to believe the result. After all, since Queen Victoria remembered, the Royal Navy has always been the world's maritime overlord, so how could it fail? This is really an unbelievable result.

"Prince Prime Minister, what's going on?" Prince Albert's face was serious.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, the Chinese used a new weapon in naval battles, and we were completely unprepared. So much so that the main fleet was easily severely damaged by the Chinese during the battle. Five battleships were sunk, five battleships were severely damaged, and only two were slightly injured. However, none of the Chinese battleships were damaged. In the case of the Chinese having absolute advantage, General George Satrus had to choose to surrender!" Earl Stanley said. Although he was a little guilty about General George Satrus who led his army to surrender, he also knew that this might be impossible. After all, there was a glimmer of life. Admiral George Satrus would not make such a choice.

"Failed! The Royal Navy failed! What should we do?" Queen Victoria was in powerless. Once the Royal Navy failed, then Britain would undoubtedly lose in this war. At that time, the whole of Britain would pay a heavy price. As a queen, she will also become the king of the destruction of the country.

"Dear, although the Navy has failed, we still have an army. The situation will not be too bad. Go and rest, and leave the rest to me!" Prince Albert said lovingly.

Queen Victoria nodded, and then left the office with the help of her maid. Obviously, the Royal Navy's miserable defeat had a huge blow to her.

After Queen Victoria left, Prince Albert's face turned gloomy as if water was about to drip out.

"Prince Prime Minister, what should we do now?" asked Prince Albert. He even felt that it was inevitable that Britain would lose this war.

"Your Highness, the Minister of the Army means to stick to the local land. Then, contact other allies and discuss how to face this situation! After all, after the Chinese Navy wins, they will soon go north to block the British Empire. And as the Chinese army is transported to Europe more and more troops, they will launch a large-scale counterattack in the spring. At that time, the situation will be very unfavorable to us!" Earl Stanley said with some frustration.

Prince Albert nodded. Although Count Stanley did not say it clearly, he knew that the British Empire would definitely end in failure. However, how to safeguard the interests of the British Empire to the greatest extent possible requires finding a way to do so.

"Send people to Paris and discuss with Napoleon III! Even if you want to admit defeat, you must strive for conditions that are beneficial to the British Empire!" said Prince Albert. This was his only request.

"Well, Your Highness, Prince. But the Chinese are too greedy. They will definitely make the British Empire pay a heavy price!" Earl Stanley was a little worried. Britain and the Chinese Empire had also dealt with countless times, and they had long experienced the greed of the Chinese Empire. Obviously, after the Chinese Empire won the victory of this war, the butcher knife in their hands had already been raised high. When the butcher knife fell, it was time for the British Empire to pay a heavy price.

"Try to fight for it! It is best to fight for the entire North Atlantic military alliance together." Prince Albert said.

"Yes, Your Highness. We will send people to contact other allies!" said Earl Stanley.

There is no doubt that this naval battle has become the turning point of this world war. The 5th Fleet of the Chinese Empire's Navy won the naval battle, which made the advantage that the Chinese Empire had originally had undoubtedly become more obvious. The balance of war victory has begun to tilt towards the Asian-European military alliance, or the Chinese Empire. The entire North Atlantic military alliance is about to lose this war.

The Elysee Palace in the French capital Paris, the office of Napoleon III.

Napoleon III's face was a little scary. All the important officials of the Second French Empire sat on the sofa without saying a word. The atmosphere in the office seemed very dull. The news of the defeat of the British Navy also came to France. There is no doubt that the failure of the British Navy was also a heavy blow to France.

"Huh!" It took a long time to breathe a sigh of relief in Napoleon III. However, the boredom in his heart still did not relieve much. He might not have expected that after betraying the Chinese Empire, he would actually fall to this point.

"Everyone, the British navy has failed! The entire world's ocean has fallen under the control of the Chinese. What should we do next in the French Empire?" Napoleon III looked around his ministers and asked.

In response to Napoleon III, there was a silence, and no one seemed to know what to say. After all, the current situation is also very unfavorable for France. In the south of France, although the British and French forces still occupied a large area of ​​land on the Iberian Peninsula. However, with the large number of troops of the Chinese Empire entering the Iberian Peninsula, it was impossible for the British and French forces to defeat the Chinese Empire and the Spanish Army and destroy the Spanish Kingdom. Moreover, the counterattack of the Chinese Empire is about to begin. Once the British and French forces are driven out of the Iberian Peninsula, southern France will be attacked by the Chinese Empire.

On the Northern Line, although the Belgian Kingdom was on the verge of extinction, they were still insisting. After the Chinese Empire's navy obtained the sea control power, it can be foreseen that their army would soon be transported to the Belgian Kingdom by sea. At that time, the Northern Line would not win. What awaited the French Empire would be the attack of the Chinese Empire. In this war, the French Empire could no longer see the hope of victory.

"Your Majesty, maybe we should consider how to end this war." French Foreign Minister Valevsky said.

"End the war? Even if we are willing, the Chinese will not agree. I know the Chinese too much, and the emperor who knows them too much. They have always regarded the French Empire as betrayers. At that time, they will definitely completely destroy the French Empire!" Napoleon III's heart was filled with bitterness. If I had known it, I might not have betrayed the Chinese Empire at the beginning. However, it seems too late to say this now. There is no medicine for regret in this world.

"Your Majesty, if the Chinese are unwilling to end the war, then we will fight them to the end. The French Empire still has 30 million people and we still have more than 2 million troops. If we carry out extreme mobilization, we can still mobilize one to two million troops. Even the Chinese Empire, we may have to consider the consequences!" said the Secretary of the Army A.J. Saint Arno.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Although it is impossible for us to win the war, we may be able to strive for a decent peace. If the entire North Atlantic military alliance unites, it may be successful!" said the Earl of Foreign Minister Valevsky.
