Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar

"Your Majesty, after the Empire occupies the Balkans, the Imperial Navy can establish naval bases on the coast of the Aegean Sea. The Black Sea Fleet will be able to enter the Mediterranean Sea through the Bosphorus and Dardanelles. Then, the main forces of the Black Sea Fleet next can undoubtedly be deployed directly in the Mediterranean.

Well, which city do we choose as the main anchorage of the Black Sea Fleet in the Mediterranean? "

The tone of Admiral Alexander was full of excitement and excitement.

Next, the Imperial Russian Navy no longer had to be restrained, which made the navy extremely excited.

For hundreds of years, this goal of the Russian Empire has finally been achieved!

Mikhail's gaze also fell on the large map hanging on the wall, and began to look for a suitable area.

The northern waters of the Aegean Sea are also known as the Thracian Sea.

There are still many excellent ports in this sea area. In addition, the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles were under the control of the Russian Empire. Then, the Imperial Russian Navy could naturally gain a foothold in this sea area. It can even be said that this sea area is already under the control of the Imperial Russian Navy.

"Does the Admiralty have an alternative?" Mikhail asked.

"Your Majesty, the Black Sea Fleet side thinks that both Thessalonika and Kavala are more suitable!" General Alexander replied.

Mikhail thought for a while, and then said: "Thessalonika is too close to the Greek Wax Kingdom. And the Greek wax people are the hardcore brothers of the sun that never sets. Our naval base is too close to them, which is very risky. So, choose to put it in Kavala. Outside Kavala is the island of Saros. We can deploy shore defense batteries on the island and become a barrier to naval bases! "

"Yes, Your Majesty!" General Alexander naturally had no objection to this.

His Majesty the Tsar decided to put the naval base there, if anyone else had an opinion. So, maybe it's too unfamiliar, right?

Besides, this is not a particularly important thing for the Russian Empire.

"Your Majesty, does the Black Sea Fleet need to change its name? After all, in the future, the main forces of the Black Sea Fleet will be deployed on the Mediterranean coast. Admiral Alexander then asked.

Mikhail didn't care much about this.

At present, the four major fleets of the Imperial Russian Navy, of which the North Sea Fleet and the Black Sea Fleet are the main fleets. And the Baltic Fleet and the Pacific Fleet are just coastal defense fleets.

Perhaps after defeating the Toyons, the Pacific Fleet can also become the main fleet again.

Even if the Black Sea Fleet puts its main anchorage on the Mediterranean side, but in any case, the Black Sea is the nest of the Black Sea Fleet.

The main shipyards and other supporting facilities are still in the Black Sea.

On Kavala's side, it will take a certain amount of time to build a naval base.

"There is no need to change the name, if the Black Sea Fleet enters the Mediterranean for deployment, it will be renamed the Mediterranean Fleet. So, in the future, when the Imperial Navy enters the Tianzhu Ocean deployment, will it also be renamed the Tianzhu Ocean Fleet? Entering the Atlantic deployment, and it will be renamed the Atlantic Fleet? Mikhail asked rhetorically.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I see!" General Alexander replied.

"By the way, don't forget to build a coastal fort at the southernmost tip of the Gallipoli Peninsula. The Dardanelles will be the main route of communication for the Black Sea fleet of the Imperial Navy in and out of the Black Sea. Defense here is particularly important. If there is no strong coastal defense fortress, once blocked by the enemy. Then the Imperial Navy will not be able to enter the Mediterranean! Mikhail reminded.

But he clearly remembers that in another time and space, the sun never set and the Gauls, in order to break into the Dardanelles, open the Bosphorus, occupy Istanbul, and dispatch a full half a million people. And the Ottomans are also very rare to play their highlight moment here, so that the sun does not set and the Gauls, paying hundreds of thousands of deaths and injuries. And his own dead and wounded were only 30,000 people.

Now, the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus are under the control of the Russian Empire. Then, for the defense of the strait, it is naturally the top priority.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" General Alexander nodded.

Next, the Black Sea Fleet needs to build a lot of civil works. Coastal defense fortresses, naval bases, etc., all need to be built.

Mikhail was also very emotional.

Next, the Russian Empire gained access to the sea. However, this also further intensified the contradictions between the Russian Empire and the Sun Never Set Empire.

Next, the Russian Imperial Navy in the Mediterranean, and even elsewhere, will probably face greater pressure from the Royal Navy of the Empire.

Of course, there is no way around it.

If the Russian Empire wanted to build a powerful navy, it had to take this step.

Otherwise, the Imperial Russian Navy would have been confined to a narrow sea area, and could only be used as a coastal defense navy and a supplementary aircraft for the army.

Of course, even now the Russian Empire has strengthened its navy. However, compared with the empire that never sets, there is still a very big gap. Under such circumstances, the Tsarist Imperial Navy still has a long way to go if it wants to challenge the Royal Navy of the Empire.

For Mikhail, it will also have to wait. Wait for more than ten years, wait until the sun never sets and the empire suffers heavy losses in the war, is the opportunity for the rise of the Russian Empire. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

At that time, the Russian Empire will not only have the most powerful army in the world, but also quickly catch up with the Royal Navy in terms of navy. At the same time, in terms of air force, Mikhail also believed that the Russian Empire would build the most powerful air force in the world.

This would give the Russian Empire a huge advantage in terms of military strength.

The hegemonic position of the Sun Never Set Empire will probably be shaky.

Not only will the Russian Empire challenge the hegemony of the Sun Never Set Empire, but the lighthouse country on the other side of the ocean will also challenge the hegemony of the Sun Never Set Empire. If you let the mustache rise again, let the mustache attack the two old powers, the Sun Never Set Empire and the Gallic Kingdom. Then, their downfall will be inevitable.

The future world will evolve into a situation of hegemony between the Russian Empire and the Lighthouse State.

Although, the Lighthouse Nation is known as the chosen one. However, Mikhail believed that the conditions of the Russian Empire were not much worse than those of the Beacon State. As long as he can lead the Russian Empire on the right path. Then, the Russian Empire may not lose in the future struggle for hegemony.

The future is undoubtedly bright. However, everyone still needs to continue to work hard!
