c_t; "If your country had entered the war six months earlier, nay, three months, we would have been in a much better position, England would not have been savagely bombed by the Germans, and the French front would have been stable. 【No pop-up novel network】(Advertisement).Visit:. We may even be done with this damn war. At that time, we were in a much better situation than we are now, but for some subjective or objective reasons, we lost the opportunity to end the war as soon as possible. At the end of the meeting, Halsey, known as a brute, uttered these words that contained a hint of resentment. This matter caught everyone by surprise, China and the United States have their own abacus, and everyone knows about it, but it is indeed the first time to throw something on the table in this case, after all, there are some things that everyone knows, but it's not good to say it!

"Halsey, three days of confinement." After a brief moment of shock, Nimitz decisively began to make amends, and while dealing with the lieutenant general, he was thinking about how to ease the sudden tension between the two sides, when Su Mo spoke.

"Well, if your country had not fought with us in the Pacific Ocean for some islands that Germany sold to China during World War I, I am afraid that the outcome of World War 1 would have been completely different, and even World War II would not have broken out, IMHO, this is a very serious strategic mistake, and compared to the situation that your country has been preparing for more than 3 years to enter the war, we have only been preparing for half a year and then entered the battle, is it not too fast to say that it is too fast? When we were struggling in Iran, who ended up withdrawing from the battlefield alone? From a military point of view, China has never owed its allies, and even if we lose, we are the last to withdraw, whether it is Italy, Iran, or France; Our aviation units in France left French airspace only when the Germans were only 50 kilometers from the airfield. We are not to blame! ”

Su Mo admits that Huaxia has its own considerations, but who of you doesn't have its own considerations? Since someone is willing to pick things up, Su Mo doesn't mind choking back. Of course, Halsey's remarks were not all due to dissatisfaction with Huaxia's late entry into the war, but more to the fact that Huaxia finally obtained the command of the new Allied fleet! The bases and logistics provided by the Americans, the American fleet had a slight advantage, but in the end the command fell into the hands of Huaxia, which had just entered the war, which was difficult for Halsey to accept.

Of course. From the point of view of the Chinese, this is rightly done, although in terms of the fleet, the US Navy does have an advantage. However, the number of planes provided by the China Xia in the carrier-based aircraft unit was more than that of the United States, and in the face of combat effectiveness, the Americans finally gave in and made a large use of the Huaxia carrier-based aircraft and crews, and in this way, the command of the aviation would inevitably fall into the hands of the Huaxia. After all, the latter is the main girder, and after using all kinds of auxiliary aircraft provided by Huaxia, because of the problem of incompatibility, the data provided by Huaxia's radar sentry aircraft can only be processed by Huaxia itself, and 7 percent of the fleet's air reconnaissance capabilities are provided by Huaxia, so Huaxia, which has an advantage in reconnaissance and aviation 'engagement', naturally takes over the supreme command of the fleet.

After taking over the supreme command, Huaxia naturally needed to draw up a battle plan, and although there was a lot of unhappiness, when it really needed to work, Huaxia and the US Navy were still 'very' powerful. In a relatively short period of time, the plan for the future, known as the Storm Offensive, was mainly divided into two parts, of which the plan based on the fleet's 'engagement' was Storm Plan A, and the part that rebuilt the 'crossing' line was Storm Plan B!

"The key to the blockade of Britain by the German fleet lies in the high seas fleet, not those submarines, if we can defeat or make it impossible for the other side to go to sea, then the North Atlantic route can naturally be restored immediately, and through the land-based air forces and anti-submarine warfare ships of the United States and Britain, we can completely carry out close monitoring of the North Atlantic! Those submarines are not a problem - the key is the fleet! ”

"In order to guarantee the advantage of the fleet in the event of an 'engagement', I think we should place some 'decoy' bait. Attracting the Germans to take the initiative, for example, if necessary, send a convoy to restore 'communication', and then the main fleet waits for an opportunity to hide around the convoy, the Luftwaffe's attack radius is actually very small. As long as they attack, we can quickly lock on to the opponent's target, and we will lose at most a few cheap transports, and the victory will be the whole battle! ”

While working on the plan, Halsey came up with this seemingly grim idea. Although this is tantamount to sending part of the transport fleet to death, but at the same time. Almost everyone admits that this is a good way to reduce fleet losses, and even if the war is exchanged, if you can win the war with cheap transport ships and expensive armored aircraft carriers, with fewer human and material casualties, it is naturally a very good deal!

"It's not good to simply use a fleet of transport ships as 'decoy' bait! The speed of the transport fleet is too slow, and we follow behind it is tantamount to limiting the maneuverability in disguise. And this 'decoy' bait is not big enough that the Germans may not take the bait. We know that battleships are much more expensive than transport ships, and the Germans, of course, know as well. We need more valuable 'decoy' bait. Deng Huaiyuan shook his head and said. And even if the Germans took the bait, they would definitely not attack with all their might, and as long as they sent out about 200 planes, they could inflict heavy damage on a large fleet of more than 50 transport ships. In the face of such a weak 'chicken', as long as the Germans are willing. They always left enough to defend themselves. ”

"So what else can we do? Shall we separate part of the fleet aircraft carriers as 'decoy' bait? Dispersing forces is a taboo in naval warfare! The loss of a few fleet carriers could have a fatal effect on the entire operation, and the size of our aircraft carrier fleet is already at a loss, and the method of further dispersal is not adequate. Without waiting for Halsey to speak, Nimitz himself denied this battle plan, although the command was in China, but it was the battlefield command, and when making the plan, the Americans also had the right of veto!

"If you want to beat your opponent, you need to put yourself in your opponent's position. What would we do if we were Germans? Su Mo smiled and took over. The Germans knew that the two fleets were close in strength, and I think everyone knew that this was very clear, and then I would analyze from the perspective of the Germans, what would I do if I were Count Spee! ”

"First of all, the cards in my hand are actually very good, I am in a very favorable situation, my task is to blockade Britain, as long as I can jam the last section of the North Atlantic transport line, then I am the winner, I don't need to care about you anywhere else, in other words, the Entente transport ships and fleets wandering around most of the North Atlantic have nothing to do with me. As long as the big 'door' to England is in my hands. So. Faced with our convoy of transports that were 'decoy' bait in the ocean, the Germans could have completely ignored them. ”

"So when our convoy approaches the British mainland, can they ignore it?" Fletcher said with some puzzlement, isn't it just a matter of location? Since the British don't care outside. Then push the 'lure' bait to the other person's mouth and see if he eats it!

"The German Navy didn't even have to read it with its own mouth;! You can draw a circle on the map with the radius of the Gryphon bomber's combat distance! The most important of the good cards in the hands of the Germans was to get the support of land-based aviation, which they could now use for naval operations was much reduced due to the air battle in Britain, as were the fighters escorting the ship. But no matter how weak it is, it will not be a problem to deal with a transport fleet escorted only by Jeep aircraft carriers! The problem of escort can be solved completely with carrier-based aircraft on an aircraft carrier! The Germans could have minimized the threat! More than 100 carrier-based fighters taking off from aircraft carriers plus bombers taking off from land can cover most of our routes. Our attempt to 'induce' the other side to divide its forces will be very difficult to achieve. Not only is this 'lure' bait not fragrant enough, but it is also not hard enough! Can't get the other party to give it their all! Summer shook his head and rejected Fletcher's claims. It is difficult for the Germans to really take the bait with transport ships alone!

"Saying the crux of the problem doesn't mean it's going to solve it." Nimitz thought for a moment and thought that what the other party said made sense, but at the same time he didn't propose how to solve it, so he was slightly dissatisfied. "The solution to the problem is simple, we seem to forget, on the other side of the Atlantic. There is also a huge fleet! Although they could not be compared to the German High Seas Fleet, they were enough to destroy any detachment, and if they could appear in the right place, then the Germans had no choice! With that, Su Mo clicked on the British Isles on the map.

"British fleet?!" Nimitz finally understood what Huaxia meant. The idea of sending a convoy to England, and then the British fleet making a response move, while the main fleet hid around and gave the German fleet a fatal blow at the right time, was a good idea in theory, although the British fleet was the third of the Entente and the fourth in the world. But it said that in the far seas there is still no fear of German land-based aviation. If the Germans did not send their main fleet, then the broken "handover" detachment would certainly not be able to stop the British, and a large number of convoys that could carry supplies arrived in Britain. If it is dispatched, it is a very good opportunity for the Entente fleet!

Facing two large fleets. The Germans could only choose one as their target, and the result of dividing their forces could be a displeasure at both ends! In this way, the main fleet of the Chinese and American fleets and the British fleet formed a flanking attack on the German high seas fleet! And the British could likewise get an escort of aircraft from the island of Ireland. The Germans may not have much 'sex' if they want to defeat it!

So the only question now is, are the British willing to take this risk? After all, the Royal Navy was the last strategic mobile force in the entire British Empire to be put on the table. (Has the Air Force become the Territorial Defense Force, the Army?) Let's not mention it for now! If there is a problem with this fleet, then the last breath of the British will probably go to 3 percent at once! So Nimitz was not optimistic about the UK.

"It's a way. Let's go help the British, they can't wait at the 'door' of their homes to receive the goods, can they? We are desperate to fight, and they should also make their own efforts for the war! "What is unthinkable is that Halsey, who was arguing with Su Mo and others just now, was the first among the American generals to jump out of the reads to express their support;." If we lose, the British fleet will not be able to hold back the Germans even if it is doubled, and if we win, the loss of half of the British fleet will not be a big problem. The British should be able to figure it out! ”

"Well, these troubles will be 'handed over' to the Congress, and let them bargain with the British!" In the end, Nimitz decided to 'turn in' the contradictions. He believed that Roosevelt would have a way to subdue the British, and even if Roosevelt had no way, Huaxia would definitely have a way! The latter was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the British, as had been the case since the end of the Iranian war. There are some things that Americans don't have to do, but Huaxia doesn't mind! As for the rest of the plans? Let's first formulate it according to the premise that the British are willing to cooperate!

So let's see what the Germans are doing at this time, right? While the Allied fleet was making vigorous preparations and preparing for a big move, the German High Seas Fleet was unusually calm, and almost the entire Allied fleet was shrinking in various important ports in western France, and all the fleet aircraft carriers were being maintained and refurbished, and were doing combat readiness work in an orderly manner, but there was no sign of dispatch.

"We've been preparing, but we've never been able to attack! How long are we going to wait? The British fleet grew bolder, and they challenged our blockade again and again. We suffered some losses in the 'engagement' of the small fleet, and in last week's 'engagement', we sank 50,000 tons of warships and submarines. And the British lost about 30,000 tons. Count Luknall asked anxiously.

"Minor problem. Let the British jump, this loss is really nothing, we make a dozen small ships like destroyers. Count Spee looked at his student and said indifferently. Although the 'fighting' between the two sides at sea was 'fierce', it was really a petty fight. Battleships of more than 15,000 tons have not yet lost a single one. From the beginning of the war to the present, only 2 light cruisers have sunk. The rest are destroyers, auxiliary cruisers, and special destroyers that are easy to produce. As Hua Xia thought, the cards in Count Spee's hand were really good, and he was not in a hurry to make a move. Maintaining the status quo is a victory! It's the British who are really in a hurry!

The German Navy is also waiting, their tactic is very simple, that is, to fight a defensive battle at the 'door' of their own home, I don't care how you act in the open sea! As long as you dare to really rush the 'door', just wait to be confused by the high seas fleet and the German land-based air force! You can jump as long as you want to the British fleet now, as long as the blockade can be maintained, and see how long you can run rampant! But although I don't care, it's not good for the navy to keep going like this, and it's not easy for the Kaiser to 'hand' over to the generation. So Count Spee thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, the air cruisers in the South Atlantic have been almost repaired, let them go out and breathe!" ”
