Bonjour,
It appears the Bretonians tried to push us back of New London using their last offensive reserves capabilities. They attacked the Southampton Trinité with largely insuffisant forces composed of two Dunkirks, several cruisers and bombers.
We welcomed them as all the Gallics do with the cups of tea. A fleet of Valors and cruisers engaged them. As the TF-Malouines was stationed in Newcastle, I jumped in my fighters with we chased the bombers. Our Valors succeed to destroy the Bretonians capital ships in an all-out attack. Nonetheless, and despite this, we suffered losses. Our warships have been damaged and only La Gallisonnière remained in the party with a cruiser.
While they were retreating, we finished the cruisers and all the bombers have been destroyed. I guess this piteful attempt is the last one the Bretonians will do with such forces. The damaged ships currently get repaired.
Sincèrement
Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Pierre Vaillant.
