Chapter 2491: 2 hands ready for four (1/2)
?
The Americans help Germany because Germany can help the United States solve difficult problems in the Pacific. This is the trust in German military power. But if the Americans are helpless and the Germans stand by, then this premise does not exist. Even if you are a mercenary who fights with money, you still need to show the results, right? At the beginning, Su Xiong was worried that the Americans would be reckless, and then the German Navy had no chance to perform, but now it seems that this worry is gone.
”That would also require the Americans to give us the right to participate in the formulation of the core plan.” Raidel said with his hands. ”And this takes time, and it also requires Americans to feel enough pain.”
”However, what I was most worried about before was that the possibility of the Americans directly taking the New Ireland Island is already very small, so what we need to consider now is how we can restore the strategic situation if the early offensive was frustrated.” Su Xiong decisively started another topic.
”The battle for islands is ultimately a question of sea power. Increasing the fleet, especially the number of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, can completely solve the problem. With the wealth of the US and German navies, it is no problem to kill the Japanese here.” Said with a smile.
”Old man, be realistic. You know that the amount of German aid to the U.S. Navy will not change easily. And what we need is a limited victory, not directly killing the Japanese.” Su Xiong frowned and said.
”Politics is so troublesome sometimes.” Raidel said half-seriously and half-jokingly. ”Compared to you, you should have an idea? After all, you are the commander of the fleet, and I am just the chief of staff.”
”Some ideas, but at the same time it needs to be refined.” Su Xiong said. ”I think the Americans are too conservative in their tactics. They tried their best to reduce losses. However, due to the battlefield situation and tactics, there will always be some loopholes in their plans. This has resulted in a campaign level. We all know that when the battle situation is at a disadvantage, passive defense is useless. This is just to delay the deterioration. The most important thing is that we must take the initiative to change the battlefield situation. ”
The so-called situation is bad and reckless, or similar to a famous RTS game, where the battlefield cannot be beaten by a second hero. This is one of the ways to change the situation. The essence is to attack and change the situation. Su Xiong understood this very well. Before he came, Su Xiong considered how the German Navy would make a blockbuster if the U.S. military was unable to attack for a long time, exert its subjective initiative, reverse the situation in one fell swoop, and then squeeze more from the Americans. At the same time, it has left a huge psychological shadow on the United States and Japan. that is it!
”I think so.” Su Xiong stepped to the huge chart and said: ”My original plan was to carry out the battle until 2 months, because at this time, the two sides must have fought several times. , Even if the Japanese navy’s battleships are not completely lost, they will definitely withdraw from the battle sequence temporarily due to war injuries or maintenance problems, and various auxiliary battleships will also lose a lot. The main fleets of both sides will be very tired, and this time is us Time to play.”
”However, our fleet will also be very tired.” Raidel said. ”Even if we haven't experienced war, after two months of staying offshore, the Bavarians must return to Pearl Harbor to clean the pipes and boilers.”
