Chapter 2645： Confrontation Escalation Two (1/2)
”It will take at least two months for the American fleet to return to its peak state. This is especially true for the German fleet. The four Bavarian-class battleships suffered heavy losses. They could not be completely repaired in the United States, so it was inevitable when they returned to China. When the fleet is dead, the role of those fast second-class warships will be revealed. Don’t forget that the Japanese also have 2 fast-armored cruisers and 3 Rurik-type warships left by the Russians. These warships will become the first A wave of broken belligerents!” Thomas said.
”Five fast-forward fearless? If it can be invested at the right time and place, the impact on the Americans will be very huge. The American light cruisers cannot resist these warships, and they are stepping up the construction of large armor The cruiser is not finished yet. I have to say that this time, Betty and the Japanese have made a good move.” Duff said.
”Yes, this is a very good move. The armored cruiser purchased from Italy is also to make up for the lack of power to break the relationship. If it is used well, it can delay Japan for several months.” Thomas said.
”Then then? You should be very clear that if the Americans are willing to pay a sufficient price, it is only a matter of time before the German fleet clears these armored cruisers cruising the sea, and it will not be long.” Duff said.
”Then? Naturally, it is to prepare for a decisive battle. During this time, the Japanese should seize the time to replenish the warships they lack. Not only the Rage class battleship we sold to them, but the Italian Caraggiono is also an option. In addition, there are simple aircraft carriers, various light cruisers and destroyers. We can use this time to clear out the bad assets of the Royal Navy, and then pack lightly.” Thomas said.
”What about the outcome of the war?” Duff asked.
”I don't know, it all depends on the game between the United States, Japan and the Germans, but now, the Germans do not want to stop this war, so this is good news for us.” Thomas said.
”So, our action in Italy will be smoother?” Duff asked.
”Not necessarily, the Italians are very cunning, they will care about every pound and you, in order to make full use of all aspects of influence, and Italians are very good at seeing the wind.” Thomas said.
”Then what is our attitude towards the Caraggiono-class battleships that the Italians are building? Do you want to help the Japanese buy them all? This is probably a bit difficult. It is impossible for the Italians to sell all the battleships to the Japanese, and the Japanese pay Ability is also very problematic,” Duff said.
”It is unrealistic to buy all 4 ships. In fact, from the perspective of time, it would be nice for the Japanese to buy two immediately and put them in the decisive battle in the future. It will be too late to buy the following warships.” Thomas thought for a while. Said.
